PRAGUE, Nov 30 (Reuters) - The Czech central bank's governing board voted unanimously to hold interest rates steady on Thursday, the bank said in a statement.

The bank said earlier the board had left the key two-week repo rate at 2.50 percent as had been widely expected.

The bank highlighted downside risks to its October quarterly inflation forecast.

These factors were stemming from the risk of a strong crown currency, latest inflation data, a new outlook for indirect tax changes and the risk of lower oil prices combined with further dollar weakening versus the euro.
