This is the fifth consecutive time the BCRP board has voted to leave the policy rate at 7.75%, the level it reached in January. The board started increasing rates from 0.25% in August 2021.
Peru’s headline year-on-year inflation fell slightly from 8% in April to 7.9% in May, but remains well over the target range of 1–3%. Core inflation, excluding food and energy prices.
