Brazil Central Bank Cuts Key Rate by 25 Basis Points for Third Straight Meeting

Brazil's central bank cut its key interest rate by 25 basis points for the third consecutive meeting. The decision, announced after the monetary policy committee's latest gathering, continues the current easing cycle.

Third reduction in a row

Each of the last three meetings has delivered a quarter-point cut. Policymakers have not indicated whether this pace will hold going forward. The bank's next meeting is scheduled for later this year.
