We are looking for concrete solutions that can contribute to a further reduction in inflation. We are on the right track,” Csaba Rigó, president of the GVH, was quoted as saying in the announcement. Market participants can make written comments on the draft report until June 8, after which the GVH will publish the received feedback on its website.
