Central Bank of Nigeria Communique No.157 of the 300th Meeting of Monetary Policy Committee held on Tuesday, 20th May 2025

The Central Bank of Nigeria's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has decided to hold the Monetary Policy Rate at 27.50% in their recent meeting. This decision was made after reviewing global and domestic economic developments and considering the risks to the outlook. The committee also decided to retain the asymmetric corridor around the MPR at +500/-100 basis points, the Cash Reserve Ratio for Deposit Money Banks at 50.00%, and the Liquidity Ratio at 30.00%. These measures aim to anchor inflation expectations and ease exchange rate pressure while the Bank continues to monitor domestic and global environments.
