Hungary's National Bank Governor Matolcsy Cancels Press Conferences
MNB governor György Matolcsy will not hold press conferences after the monetary council’s rate-setting meetings, unlike his predecessors, he announced on Monday.

The relevant law states that any new interest rate should be announced at 2 p.m. and that the written justification should be published one hour later.

Matolcsy has not made a public statement since taking the governor’s post three weeks ago.
