Hungary's central bank report total borrowings shouldered by local households may help shed some light on a tentative government plan to assists holders of mortgages denominated in foreign currencies. In the past mortgages and consumer loans, issued in Swiss francs, were popular among Hungarians because they carried lower interest rates than similar loans taken in the local currency. With the forint's weakening in the wake of the financial crisis repayment costs of foreign loans increased steeply, denting disposable incomes of many a Hungarian family.
The second-quarter net profit of OTP Bank Nyrt. (OTP.BU), Hungary's largest bank by assets and market share, surpassed Thursday even the most optimistic analyst expectations as sharply higher net fees and commissions boosted its operating profit while the effective tax rate fell deeply. Consolidated unadjusted net profit was 40.58 billion forints ($180.8 million) in the second quarter, down 1% from a net profit of HUF41.07 billion a year earlier, but sharply higher than the HUF30.38 billion consensus forecast in a poll of 18 analysts provided by the company.

In Prague, the July's producer price index data will likely confirm benign inflationary pressures with analysts expecting PPI rising 1.1% on the year, compared with a 0.7% annual growth in June.
