Tariffs pose a risk to Taiwan’s economic outlook, central bank minutes show TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwan’s central bank cautioned that U.S. tariffs are clouding the economic outlook for the second half of 2025, despite easing inflation, and called for more flexibility in monetary policy, minutes from the latest board meeting showed on Thursday. "Domestic inflation has continued easing and the economic conditions remain stable, heightened uncertainty in the international economic and trade environment may weigh on Taiwan’s economic growth" in the second half, several board members said. In a widely expected move in June, the central bank left the benchmark discount rate unchanged at 2%, a level it has maintained since March 2024. The central bank said inflation was expected to gradually decline for the remainder of the year, but its overall monetary policy stance remained hawkish. One board member, who was not identified in the minutes of the June meeting, said that retaining policy flexibility would enable timely adjustments if needed. Another board member said that despite the Israel-Iran conflict, the Taiwan dollar appreciation against the U.S. dollar in recent months had helped dampen import prices, which would likely further reduce inflationary pressures. Taiwan’s inflation rate - 1.37% in June and its slowest pace in 51 months - has been much milder than that of economies in Europe and the United States, and its benchmark interest rate has also been correspondingly lower. The central bank - which has 14 members on its board - holds its next quarterly rate-setting meeting on September 19.

US tariffs mean cautious rate decisions needed, Taiwan central bank minutes show TAIPEI (Reuters) -Uncertainty brought about by U.S. import tariffs means decisions on interest rate policy need to be cautious, according to minutes from the Taiwan central bank’s latest meeting published on Wednesday. At its quarterly board meeting in March, the central bank left the benchmark discount rate at 2%, as expected, prompted by lingering concerns over inflation and the possible impact of U.S. trade tariffs. The March rate decision, made before U.S. President Donald Trump announced then paused his sweeping import tariffs, was unanimous. One board member, who it did not identify, said that coupled with the elevated uncertainty over U.S. policies and still solid domestic growth, there seemed to be no urgency for a rate hike and little room for a rate cut. Going forward, central bankers need to be more careful and prudent considering the global political and economic instability, the member said. A second board member said that while Taiwan’s economic growth was steady, Trump’s policies were "erratic", and on balance monetary policy should proceed with caution. A third board member said the bank needed to maintain its guard against "persistent" inflation and further tightening may be needed if inflation stayed above 2% for an extended period. The central bank, which has 15 members on its board, holds its next scheduled rate-setting meeting on June 19. Which stock should you buy in your very next trade?

BofA highlights Taiwan’s fiscal paradox, stable power tariffs A report from Bank of America (BofA) highlighted a growing focus on Taiwan’s fiscal policy among international investors. The discussions revolve around the island’s unique financial situation characterized by robust revenue streams contrasted with a constricted budget. This fiscal paradox has led the Taiwanese government to increasingly rely on special budgets, as evidenced by the recent unveiling of a NT$410 billion relief package, which equates to 1.6% of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The analysis by BofA points out that while the Taiwanese cabinet has approved a relief package, the potential for large-scale economic stimulus remains limited unless the situation with tariffs intensifies. This cautionary stance reflects a measured approach to fiscal expansion in light of current economic conditions. Regarding the energy sector, BofA projects that power tariffs in Taiwan are expected to hold steady in 2025, supported by subsidies and a decline in energy prices. However, the firm anticipates that from 2026 onwards, there will be incremental increases in power prices. This article was generated with the support of AI and reviewed by an editor.
