November 24, 2022 (MLN): Turkey's central bank on Thursday cut interest rate by 150 basis points to 9% for forth time and decided to end its cycle of monetary policy easing, citing increased inflation risks.
Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ordered the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) to cut rates despite soaring inflation, which hit 85.5% year-on-year in October as food and energy prices continued to soar.
