Due to rising geopolitical risks, the situations in Iran, Israel, and the US pose risks to higher oil prices, Citi released a research report noting.In Citi's estimates, China's CPI could rise by about 0.2% and PPI by about 1% for every 10% increase in oil prices, though this is unlikely to alter China's overall deflationary trend.Related NewsCentral Parity of USD/ RMB Hikes 54 bps to 7.1656Considering China's USD325 billion in oil imports last year, it is estimated that every 10% increase in oil prices could reduce its current account balance by 7.7% and have less than a -0.1 ppt impact on GDP growth.As concerns about oil-driven inflationary pressure potentially curbing monetary easing policies seemed premature at this stage, Citi continued to expect a 10 bp cut in China's policy rate and a 50 bp cut in its RRR in 2H25.
