Turkey’s Central Bank Cuts One-Week Repo Rate to 12%

The video discusses a 200 basis point rate cut, reducing the key rate from 14% to 12%. Despite this, the lira has not significantly changed against the dollar. Analysts expected a smaller cut of 150 basis points. The central bank has undergone leadership changes, with a new governor overseeing 1200 basis points of cuts. Despite these changes, the lira has strengthened since June. The central bank's wording suggests a slowdown in rate cuts, with the real base rate now at 1.4% considering inflation. The central bank may have limited room for further cuts unless inflation decreases.
