Executive Summary:

• SNB has cut its policy rate for the second consecutive time by 25bps and kept its FX communications unchanged
• They have revised lower their inflation forecast amid lower inflationary pressures, despite it being conditional on the new, lower, policy rate of 1.25%, resulting in an overall rather dovish meeting
• Indications on further potential action by the SNB remain limited as the they continued to give no forward guidance and their reaction function remains rather opaque
