“This is more than the Bloomberg consensus expectation for 100bps and slightly more than what we think is priced in (somewhere between 150-200bps). While we think the prudent approach would suggest holding, we think the MPC is under political pressure to cut.”

“We do however recognise that everything between 100-250bps is equally likely. If we see a cut south of 125bps, we expect USDTRY to move lower (similar to the September meeting) and to move higher if the cut is bigger than 150bps.”
