The Polish zloty is facing a scenario different from its neighboring currencies in the Baltics, central Europe and the euro as interest rates may rise in the following months to control the country’s growing inflation, helping the zloty to climb in forex markets this Thursday.

After a Polish government official stated that interest rates may be hiked in the second half of this year to prevent inflation to grow beyond the nation’s targets, the zloty reached the highest price in more than a year versus the currently unattractive euro.

EUR/PLN closed at 3.8963 from an opening rate of 3.9088 this Thursday.
