“We are looking at an equilibrium state we don’t want to ruin by making hasty movements,” Isarescu told a news conference.
However, the central bank doesn’t target a specific exchange rate of the leu, he added.
The leu weakened by 1.5% against the euro in the first 10 months of 2011. Monday afternoon, it traded near 4.355 per euro.
Romanian central bank last week lowered its main interest rate by a quarter of a point to a record low of 6% a year, the first cut in a year and a half. Analysts estimate the monetary easing policy will continue in the following months, along potential cuts of the minimum reserve requirements for leu-denominated liabilities.
