**Bank of Korea's August 27 decision to raise the base rate 25 basis points to 3.00%—its second consecutive hike—has anchored trader expectations for the November meeting around a hold or modest further tightening.** Persistent inflation, with August CPI rebounding to 3.1% year-over-year after 2.8% in July and core measures near 2.6%, continues above the 2% target amid semiconductor-driven growth now projected at 3.3% for 2026. The BOK's dot plot clusters most projections at 3.25% by year-end, reflecting concerns over demand pressures, housing stability, and currency dynamics. With the October meeting next and incoming data on prices and nominal GDP likely to shape the path, the close 53.5% no-change versus 41.5% 25 bps hike odds capture the data-dependent balance between gradual normalization and preemptive restraint.

The resolution source will be official information from the Bank of Korea's Monetary Policy Board, including the statement or release from its November 2026 meeting, scheduled for November 26, 2026, as listed on the official Bank of Korea calendar (https://www.bok.or.kr/eng/bbs/E0000627/view.do?nttId=10094301&searchCnd=1&searchKwd=&depth2=400417&depth3=400022&depth=400022&pageUnit=10&pageIndex=1&programType=newsDataEng&menuNo=400022&oldMenuNo=400022). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Bank of Korea's Monetary Policy Board resulting from its November 2026 meeting with relevant data is issued.
If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound.
If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of "Increase" or "Decrease" will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size.
