PRAGUE, Feb 2 (Reuters) - The Czech National Bank (CNB)
left interest rates unchanged at a more than two-decade high on
Thursday, as the economy tipped into a mild recession amid
persistent double-digit inflation.
All analysts in a Reuters poll had expected the bank to hold
the key two-week repo rate at 7.00%, where it has
sat since June last year following a year-long hiking cycle
totalling 675 basis points.
