斯里兰卡科伦坡指数 (ASPI) 加自选

斯里兰卡中央银行在2025年1月的会议上将基准利率保持在8.00%不变，以在中期内将通货膨胀率保持在5%的目标，同时促进经济复苏。在能源价格下调的推动下，目前的通货紧缩趋势预计将在短期内持续下去，通货膨胀预计将在2025年底转为正值并接近目标。在GDP方面，斯里兰卡经济在2024年强劲增长，第三季度GDP同比增长5.5%，第二季度为4.7%。在市场贷款利率下降、商业信心增强和私营部门信贷扩大的支持下，这一势头预计将持续到2025年。央行还将长期贷款利率保持在8.50%，而长期存款利率保持在7.50%。董事会重申其监测通货膨胀和经济变量的承诺，以确保国内价格稳定和持续增长。

The Central Bank of Sri Lanka kept its benchmark interest rates unchanged at 8.00% during its January 2025 meeting to keep the inflation rate at 5% target over the medium term while fostering economic recovery. Current deflationary trends, driven by energy price cuts, are expected to persist in the near term, with inflation projected to turn positive and near the target in late 2025. On the GDP front, Sri Lanka's economy grew strongly in 2024, with 5.5% YoY GDP expansion in Q3, following 4.7% in Q2. This momentum is anticipated to continue into 2025, supported by declining market lending rates, improved business confidence, and expanding private sector credit. The central bank also held the Standing Lending Facility Rate at 8.50%, while the Standing Deposit Facility Rate remains at 7.50%. The board reiterated its commitment to monitoring inflation and economic variables to ensure domestic price stability and sustained growth.
