The MNB raised the key interest rate by 30 basis points

Base rate increasingly catches up with one-week deposit rates

Analysts also expected such a rise after the Monetary Council raised its key interest rate by 100 basis points on Tuesday. The base rate is now 5.40 percent.
The MNB has recently separated the one-week deposit rate from the base rate, and has also widened and made the interest rate corridor asymmetric in order to increase its room for maneuver. (MTI)
