Kazakhstan: Kazakhstan increases its base rate to 16%

Thu, 05/11/2015

The National Bank of Kazakhstan decided to increase its base rate to 16% as part of efforts to keep inflation over the medium-term within the target range of 6 - 8%. The next rate revision is scheduled for 6 November 2015.

An increase of the base interest rate might stabilise the country’s financial system and support the national currency.
