The Governor, through the Markets Department, issued Directive No. 02/DME/2023 to set the Bank of Angola's Basic Interest Rate and Permanent Lending and Liquidity Absorption Facility rates at 18.00% and 14.00% per annum, respectively. Effective immediately upon the Monetary Policy Committee's January 20, 2023 decision, the directive revokes Directive No. 10/DME/2022 and empowers the Markets Department to resolve any interpretive ambiguities. This adjustment aligns key monetary policy benchmarks with current operational needs while maintaining regulatory continuity across financial market facilities.
