The Slovak central bank (NBS) will probably raise its inflation forecast at the Oct. 30 policy meeting due to a jump in food prices, but a euro...

...entry test is not at risk, NBS Governor Ivan Sramko said on Wednesday.

"There will be a new quarterly forecast at the end of this month, where we will incorporate new food prices, and it is clear they will shift inflation (forecast) to higher levels," Sramko told reporters after the government meeting.

"(But) our preliminary assessment is that we do not feel a serious risk of endangering the Maastricht criteria (for inflation) so far," he said.
