COLOMBO : Sri Lanka's central bank is widely expected to loosen monetary policy further on Thursday, following a massive 250-basis-point interest rate cut in June, as it looks to revive growth amid a rapid fall in inflation.
The median estimate in a Reuters poll is for a 200-basis-point rate cut. Seven economists called for a 200 bps reduction, three expect a 100 bps cut while one said the central bank could cut by 300 bps.At its last meeting in June, the CBSL reduced its standing deposit facility rate and standing lending facility rate in a surprise move to 13 per cent and 14 per cent, respectively.
Sri Lanka's domestic debt restructuring plan, which received parliamentary approval on Saturday, has pushed down domestic bond market interest rates to 12 per cent-13 per cent levels from 22 per cent earlier, analysts said.
