BUDAPEST, March 28 (Reuters) - Hungary's central bank
said on Tuesday that the 13% base rate would have to be
maintained "over a prolonged period" to ensure that inflation
expectations are anchored, adding that it was closely monitoring
the current risks in international markets.
"The Bank is closely monitoring the effects of increased
uncertainty in international financial markets on the risk
environment," the rate-setting Monetary Council said in a
statement.
