The Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) is likely to maintain the same policy stance in this week’s monetary policy review, but given the concerns around economic growth, the CBSL is likely to retain the monetary policy stance at “accommodative”, First Capital Research (FCR) said in its pre-monetary policy report yesterday (24).
FCR believes that there is a 50% probability to hold rates due to improvement in high frequency indicators and that there is a 25% probability for 25 bps and 50 bps, respectively, to support economic growth.
