The Bank of Korea’s unanimous April 2026 decision to hold its base rate steady at 2.50% amid Middle East geopolitical uncertainties and balanced risks to growth and inflation underpins the 97% market-implied probability of no change at the May 28 meeting. Policymakers continue to assess the impact of higher oil prices on the April CPI reading of 2.6% year-over-year, which exceeds the 2% target yet aligns with prior projections, while first-quarter GDP growth remains supported near 1.7% by semiconductor exports. Recent hawkish comments from Deputy Governor Ryoo Sang-dai signaling consideration of future rate hikes have not shifted trader consensus, given the institution’s data-dependent stance and stable financial conditions. A hotter-than-expected May CPI release or sharper Korean won depreciation could modestly elevate the slim probabilities of a hike before the next policy meeting.
