Elsewhere in Europe, EUR/NOK tested the 12.0 near-term target, which likely mirrors some deterioration in FX liquidity conditions ahead of the US vote, ING’s FX analyst Francesco Pesole notes.
“The krone’s weakness will likely keep Norges Bank a hawkish outlier this week, with markets pricing in no risk of a cut at the Thursday meeting.”
“Another development in the Nordics is the Riksbank meeting (also on Thursday). We expect a 50bp in line with consensus and market pricing, and see only a severe post-US election SEK selloff potentially tilting the balance to 25bp.”
