In a decisive move to stimulate economic growth, Serbia has reduced its benchmark interest rate from 6.50% to 6.25%, effective as of June 2024. This adjustment follows a period of stabilization where the rate remained steady at 6.50% since May 2024. The latest data update was issued on 13 June 2024.
This shift in monetary policy is expected to ease borrowing costs and encourage investment within the country. Economic analysts believe that the reduced interest rate will provide much-needed breathing space for businesses seeking to expand and consumers looking to make significant purchases, ultimately driving economic growth. Market reactions to this policy change are being closely monitored as the Serbian economy adapts to this new rate environment.
