...central bank board member Peter Sevcovic said on Tuesday.
The preliminary flash estimate of fourth quarter GDP, published by the Statistics Office earlier on Tuesday, came in well above the market expectation of an 8.1 percent acceleration, boosting the crown currency.
But the flash estimate does not give a detailed structure of data, and Sevcovic said more detailed figures were needed before he could assess any possible impact the data could have on monetary policy.
