Several Polish policymakers distanced themselves from central bank Governor Adam Glapinski’s view that interest rates may not be cut at all next year, revealing a split just as the country’s economy slows.

Monetary Policy Council members Ludwik Kotecki, Henryk Wnorowski and Cezary Kochalski said they still expect the 10-person panel to start discussing monetary easing in March, instead of October like Glapinski predicted on Thursday.
