ZURICH, Nov 5 (Reuters) - The Swiss National Bank expects inflation to remain in the desired range with current interest rates, governing board member Petra Tschudin said on Thursday, echoing statements from earlier in the week.

Swiss annual inflation fell to 0.1% in October, according to government data published on Monday, putting price rises at the bottom end of the SNB's 0-2% target, which the central bank calls price stability.

Still, analysts do not expect the SNB to cut interest rates below the current level of 0%. (Reporting by Ariane Luthi; editing by Tom Sims)

All Fixed Income News

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.

Before investing, consider the funds' investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Contact Fidelity for a prospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing this information. Read it carefully.
