Why it matters for markets

Press briefings that follow monetary policy decisions are a regular channel through which a central bank explains its stance to the public and to market participants. The material available here is only the title and a short description of the speech. It does not include the decisions themselves or the reasoning behind them. This article therefore does not describe specific policy measures, figures or outlook.

Readers who follow the Ukrainian hryvnia or regional macro conditions may want to read the full speech text on the BIS website, together with the National Bank of Ukraine's own announcements, to see what was decided and how the Governor described it.

Notes for EA trading

Central bank communications can bring sudden volatility, and spreads may widen around the time of a release or briefing. If you run automated trading systems, it is worth checking the schedule of major announcements beforehand. Some traders consider pausing their EAs around those windows to limit exposure to unpredictable price movement.
