25 bps interest rate cut
The policymaking Federal Open Market Committee drops the target range to 2% to 2.25% for its overnight lending rate, or 25 basis points from the previous level. By Lee C. Chipongian. Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Governor Benjamin E. Diokno said another 25 basis points (bps) interest rate cut – for a cumulative 75 bps – is possible this year due to the prolonged 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Alex reads in the newspaper that the Fed is inclined to cut the interest rates by 25bps. As he is not sure of what “25 bps” exactly means, he makes a phone call to his best friend, Jerry, who perhaps knows what “bps” means. Jerry explains to Alex that 25bps are equal to 0.25% since 1 bps is equal to 0.01%. The cut, which takes the repo rate to 6.25%, was a possibility as SA’s growth has flagged and inflation has slowed to its lowest levels since December 2010. As widely expected, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered its benchmark funds rate by 25 basis points to a range of 1.5% to 1.75% on Wednesday.
