12:29 PM EDT, 08/11/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Mexico's central bank (Banxico) decided to lower the policy rate 25bp to 7.75% last week, as expected, noted Deutsche Bank.

The decision was taken by a 4-1 majority, in which Deputy Governor Jonathan Heath favored standing pat.

The bank continues to pencil in the policy rate closing the year at 7.25% and reaching a terminal level of 6.75% by Q1 2026.

This path entails a pause in November, a call that likely faces downside risks given the latest labor market metrics in the United States.

Deutsche Bank expects USD/MXN to trade in the 18.5-19 range.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
