SANTIAGO, April 28 (Reuters) – Chile’s central bank on Tuesday held its benchmark interest rate at 4.5% in a unanimous decision, in line with expectations and marking its third consecutive decision to maintain the rate.
In a statement, Chile’s central bank said the prolongation of the war in the Middle East was worsening forecasts for global inflation and economic activity, and increasing risks that oil prices will remain high.
