  "account": "Banxico maintained its overnight interest rate at 6.50%, as expected, while adjusting its forward guidance and decoupling Mexico's policy from Federal Reserve moves. Inflation forecasts stayed largely unchanged with core CPI nudged upward. The central bank expects to keep the rate at 6.50%, but sees risks favoring future hikes.\n\nBanxico adjusted its monetary policy statement, emphasizing the ongoing disinflation process and the behavior of determinants such as the exchange rate, slack conditions, and inflation expectations. The central bank reaffirmed its commitment to its primary mandate and low and stable inflation.\n\nWhile Banxico may not need to adjust the reference rate mechanically in response to anticipated Fed rate adjustments, the balance of risks favors a future hike. Inflation expectations remain largely unchanged, with small upward adjustments in core CPI projections for Q3 and Q4. However, surging oil prices increase the upside risk to the Bank’s inflation outlook.",
