Congo central bank holds policy rate at 12.5%

Original: Congo central bank keeps policy rate at 12.5%

The Democratic Republic of Congo's central bank has decided to keep its policy rate unchanged at 12.5%, according to a report by Reuters. The decision means borrowing costs in the Congolese economy stay at their current level, with no immediate stimulus or tightening. The rate is being watched as a signal of how the bank is balancing inflation pressures against support for growth.

Why now: The central bank's decision on interest rates directly affects inflation and borrowing costs in the Congolese economy.
