The MPC also retained the asymmetric corridor around the Monetary Policy Rate at +50 and -450 basis points.
In addition, the committee left the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) unchanged at 45 per cent for Deposit Money Banks, 16 per cent for Merchant Banks, and 75 per cent for non-Treasury Single Account (non-TSA) public sector deposits.
The latest decision signals the committee’s preference to keep existing monetary policy measures in place while monitoring developments in inflation, exchange rate stability and broader macroeconomic conditions.
