23 Exogenous pressures on inflation The scenario on administered price developments is fraught with uncertainties related to the phasing out of regulated prices on the gas and electricity markets (reference document: the European Union s Third Energy Package) The scenario on developments in volatile food prices incorporates: the assumption of a normal agricultural year slightly improved prospects for the agricultural output compared to the previous forecast (prepared during adverse weather conditions, i.e. drought, low temperatures, etc.) Administered prices annual inflation 211 Volatile food prices annual inflation end of period, % Feb. 212 IR May 212 IR 2 21 end of period, % Feb. 212 IR May 212 IR Source: NIS, NBR projections 23

25 Revision of the annual adjusted CORE2 inflation projection compared with the previous round The path of the annual adjusted CORE2 inflation rate* has been revised marginally downwards compared to the previous round, mainly due to the projection of a relatively wider negative output gap The annual adjusted CORE2 inflation rate is forecasted to range between 1.7% and 2% throughout the projection horizon *) This core inflation measure excludes from the overall CPI administered prices, volatile prices (of vegetables, fruit, eggs and fuels), tobacco and alcohol prices 21 Source: NIS, NBR projections Annual adjusted CORE2 inflation end-of-period, % Feb. 212 IR May 212 IR
26 Determinants of annual adjusted CORE2 inflation projection The negative output gap remains the main determinant of disinflation Contributions to annual adjusted CORE2 inflation (pp) VAT 1 Marginal impact of public sector pay rises Pressures from imported inflation will gradually abate Relative stabilisation of inflation expectations* at somewhat higher levels than those of projected inflation, attributable to the adjustment inertia and to the temporary increase in annual CPI inflation forecasted for 212 Q3 on account of an unfavourable statistical base effect *) backward- and forward-looking Q2 21 Q2 211 Note: The annual adjusted CORE2 inflation is calculated as a quarterly average in this chart, in line with its econometrically-modelled determinants. Source: NBR calculations Q2 212 import prices output gap inflation expectations annual adjusted CORE2 rate (%) Q
27 Causes External developments: Potential causes for inflation to deviate from the projected path performance of the euro area economy and investors perception on the regional and/or global economic context geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, with an impact on the oil price Volatility of capital flows to EU emerging economies given the uncertainty surrounding the success of the fiscal consolidation measures in euro area countries Uncertainties regarding the firm and consistent implementation of fiscal consolidation measures and structural reforms given the 212 electoral calendar Balance of risks Tilted to the upside Tilted to the upside Dynamics of administered prices (deregulation of the gas and electricity markets) Weather conditions and food price dynamics In equilibrium In equilibrium The materialisation of any of these risks might rekindle inflation expectations, with unfavourable effects on consumer prices. 27
