PrintAngola's Central Bank Cuts Policy Rate by 50bps to 18.50% on Lower Inflation
BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 11/18/25 11:34 AM EST11:34 AM EST, 11/18/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Angola's central bank (BNA) Tuesday said its Monetary Policy Committee decided to reduce its policy rate by 50bps to 18.50% on lower inflation.
The central bank also cut the interest rate of the Permanent Liquidity Provision Facility to 19.50% from 20.0% and reduced the interest rate of the Permanent Liquidity Absorption Facility to 16.5% versus 17.0%.
The reduction in policy interest rates is justified, on the one hand, by the favorable evolution of the main macroeconomic indicators, especially the consistent slowdown in inflation, and, on the other hand, by an assessment of monetary indicators that signal lower inflationary pressures in the short term, wrote BNA in its policy statement.
