The country’s key financial institution is geared up towards tightening further, although the bank stressed that the pace would be gradual. Some market experts are assured that the bank is going to remain on the sidelines in September. However, there’s a likelihood that a powerful move can show up on October if the data keep demonstrating firm underlying strength.
