The Board of Governors agreed to cut the BI 7-day reverse repo rate by 25 basis points to 4.00 percent. This was the fourth reduction and the last change in the rate was a 25 basis points cut on June 18.
The overnight deposit facility rate and lending facility rate were lowered by 25 basis points to 3.25 percent and 4.75 percent, respectively.
