This decision follows a period where annual CPI inflation remained below target at 1.5% in December 2024, driven by low core inflation and deflationary pressures from external trade. The Board intends to continue gradually easing the policy stance to balance risks from global economic slowdowns against potential domestic demand uncertainties.
