KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 6 — Bank Negara Malaysia’s (BNM) decision to maintain the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) at 2.75 per cent reflects its assessment that the rate remains consistent with price stability outlook and sustainable economic growth, said Governor Datuk Seri Abdul Rasheed Ghaffour.
“When we assess the growth and inflation outlook, we see that the current OPR level of 2.75 per cent remains consistent with our assessment of the economic outlook,” he told Bernama after the OPR announcement yesterday.
Abdul Rasheed said global growth demonstrated resilience, supported by factors such as the continued expansion of technology-related investments and strong demand associated with the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.
