Uzbekistan Leaves Key Interest Rate Steady at 14%
The Central Bank of Uzbekistan left its benchmark refinancing rate steady at 14% during its April 2021 meeting, as inflation expectations remain high. The bank noted that headline inflation slowed to 10.9% in March from 11.4% in February but said the persistence of inflationary risks for longer-than-expected, under the influence of internal and external factors, required the current monetary policy stance. According to the State Statistics Committee, the Uzbekistani economy advanced 3% in real terms during the first quarter of 2021, compared with the same period a year earlier. The central bank added that the country’s major trade partners also showed signs of recovery. Looking ahead, policymakers expect the economy to grow in the range of 4.5-5.5% in 2021, and may consider a cut in interest rates should inflation stay within 9-10% by the end of the year.
