On January 27, 2025, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) is scheduled to make its first monetary policy announcement of the year.
Following the drop in inflation, experts anticipate a potential one percent interest rate cut.
The governor of SBP will make the announcement at a news conference after the central bank summoned a meeting of its Monetary Policy Committee on Monday. The Governor had recently stated that this month would see a revision of the interest rate.
The base interest rate is currently 13%. Experts predict that as inflation is beginning to decline, interest rates will continue to decline. A potential rate drop in the near future has already been alluded to by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif.
