The Bank of Tanzania’s Monetary Policy Committee has decided to lower the Central Bank Rate (CBR) by 25 basis points, to 5.75% from 6.00%. Consequently, the Bank will implement monetary policy to ensure that the 7-day interbank rate stabilizes within the CBR corridor of 3.75-7.75%.
This decision reflects the Committee’s confidence in the inflation outlook. Inflation has consistently remained within the target band of 3–5%, and projections indicate it will remain stable within this range. This is supported by prudent monetary and fiscal policies, the onset of the harvest season, and exchange rate stability.
