Turkey | The CBRT delivers a new bold action
Summary
The Central Bank (CBRT) hiked policy interest rate (one-week repo) by 625bps to 24.0%. The hike is remarkably higher than expectations (21% Bloomberg) and even ours (22.75% BBVA Research). The decision of the CBRT doesn't only contribute to fight against inflation and inflation expectations but also supports financial stability by decreasing the pressures over the currency
