Poland's inflation rate has increased as energy prices soar following the conflict in Iran, according to Jin10. Preliminary data released on Tuesday shows that Poland's Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 3% year-on-year in March, marking the highest level since July last year and surpassing February's 2.1%. In response to the conflict, Poland's central bank had aggressively cut its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points to 3.75% on March 4, shortly after the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran in late February. However, the latest inflation data is expected to prompt the central bank to adopt a more cautious stance. Last week, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced a plan to reduce the value-added tax and excise tax on soaring oil prices and impose a cap on retail prices, which will be set daily based on wholesale levels.#PolandInflation #EnergyPriceSurge #IranConflict #ConsumerPriceIndex #InterestRateCut #PolandCentralBank #DonaldTusk #VATReduction #ExciseTax #OilPrices #CPI
