Analysts Choi Ji-wook and Moon Da-woon cited steady economic growth and inflation remaining above the central bank's target level as likely drivers for the hike. The analysts also noted a possibility of back-to-back rate increases in July and August if the bank's assessment of core inflation proves stronger than expected.
