LatAm Daily | Policy rate hike in Peru due to higher inflation and inflation expectations
Summary
High inflation and inflation expectations were the factors behind the decision to increase the MPR to 3.75%, and we do not rule out another hike in the coming months. In Colombia, GDP grew above expectations in 3Q15 mainly due to retail and some services to households. The economic expectation survey in Chile anticipates a rate pause in the next monetary policy meeting.
