Last updated at:Jun-25 13:29By: Keith Gyles
- Remarks from BCB Director Galipolo are hitting the wires, with the board member affirming his agreement with the central bank's hawkish messaging in its minutes, published earlier.
- Galipolo says that the minutes fully represent what he is thinking and that they reaffirm cohesion inside the central bank.
- He reiterates that the BCB is committed to the inflation goal and that the easing cycle has been interrupted, given significant changes in FX and a higher risk premium in Brazil and peers. Interest rates need to be restrictive to hit the inflation goal, he says.
