April 2, Fineko/abc.az. The Board of the Central Bank of Azerbaijan has decided to keep the discount rate at 6.5%.

ABC.AZ informs with reference to the CBA that the lower threshold of the interest rate corridor has been maintained at 5.5% and the upper one at 7.5%.

"When making the decision, the compliance of actual and projected inflation with the target range (4±2%), the risks associated with growing geopolitical tensions in the region, the current situation on global and domestic financial markets, internal macroeconomic trends, as well as the specifics of the transmission of monetary policy decisions to the real sector were taken into account," the regulator says.
