For the seventh time in a row .. The Central Egypt keeps interest rates unchanged

The Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank of Egypt, at its first meeting, during the year 2025, for the seventh time in a row, kept the price of deposit and lending for one night and the price of the main operation of the Central Bank at 27.25%, 28.25% and 27.75%, respectively. It also decided to keep the credit and discount price at 27.75%.

The committee said in a statement that “Business” received a copy of it, today, Thursday, that this decision comes as a reflection of the latest developments and expectations at the global and local levels since the previous meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee.

The Monetary Policy Committee believes that maintaining the basic return rates of the central bank without change is currently appropriate to maintain restricted monetary policy and ensure a significant and sustainable decrease in the inflation rate, leading to the consolidation of expectations.
