Key Quotes
“We expect no action from the SNB, i.e. policy rates to be kept unchanged and terms and conditions for sight-deposit accounts will likely be left untouched as well”.
“Markets price a small chance of a cut today and if we are right about no SNB cut, it would send EUR/CHF lower near term”.
“We still think the SNB will continue to use intervention as the first line of defence against any unwarranted CHF strength and we expect EUR/CHF to be kept in range near term and project 1.08 in 1-3M”.
“We expect SNB to stay put for the foreseeable future and still look for a gradual uptick in the cross to 1.11 in 6M and 1.15 in 12M”.
