The Reserve Bank of Fiji held its benchmark interest rate at 0.5 percent during its August meeting, saying that the moderation in the global and domestic economy and comfortable level of inflation and foreign reserves warrants the continuation of the accommodative monetary policy stance. Policymakers noted that latest indicators point towards a slowdown in the domestic economy due to weak private sector credit growth as well as labour demand, and voiced concerns about the escalating trade impasse between the US and China. Interest Rate in Fiji averaged 0.52 percent from 2010 until 2019, reaching an all time high of 2.50 percent in December of 2010 and a record low of 0.50 percent in January of 2011.

Interest Rate in Fiji is expected to be 0.50 percent by the end of this quarter, according to Trading Economics global macro models and analysts expectations.

In the long-term, the Fiji Interest Rate is projected to trend around 1.00 percent in 2020, according to our econometric models.
