PRAGUE, April 18 (Reuters) - The current level of Czech
interest rates is high enough and another rate hike would only
have a small impact on inflation, Vice-Governor Eva Zamrazilova
said in the Prostor X podcast.
She said in the podcast posted on the central bank website
on Tuesday that rates will also not be lowered until inflation
drops to single digits and is clearly aimed to the central
bank's 1-3% target range.
Rates will have to remain relatively high for some time,
longer than the bank believed a year ago, she said.
