Hungarian forint — high-yielding Central European currency with elevated political and policy risk.

Hungary macro brief
Use this hub as the starting point for Hungary macro series, release history, and API endpoint documentation.
The Magyar Nemzeti Bank (MNB) Monetary Council sets the base rate monthly and targets 3% CPI inflation with a ±1 percentage-point tolerance band. The MNB has historically used a wide toolkit including overnight deposit rates, FX swaps, and targeted lending facilities.
The pages below are organized by indicator rather than API route. That keeps the public website useful for research while still preserving direct links into the versioned API documentation for developers.
- MNB monthly base-rate decision and post-meeting press conference.
- Hungary CPI release.
- MNB Inflation Report (quarterly).
- EU-Hungary policy and disbursement headlines.
- EUR/HUF spot and Hungarian government bond yields.
