Commerzbank FX analysts Norman Liebke and Michael Pfister expect Brazil's real to face election-related risks in the near term before moving back to gains.
Their supportive view is tied to the Brazilian Central Bank's hawkish stance and still-elevated real interest rates, which they see as a buffer for the currency.
Key points:
- Near term: election risks dominate
- After that: renewed BRL gains
- Support: BCB hawkish policy, elevated real rates
