Original: Russian central bank keeps key rate on hold at 14%, raises 2026 inflation forecast

The Bank of Russia has kept its key interest rate unchanged at 14%, while raising its inflation forecast for 2026. The decision follows the central bank's series of aggressive rate moves in recent years as it battles elevated price pressures in the Russian economy. Economists are watching for signals on when policymakers might begin easing, and the revised inflation outlook suggests officials remain cautious about price risks despite holding rates steady.
