Mexican Central Bank Lowers Interest Rate to 6.75% Despite Inflation Surge
The Mexican Central Bank, known as the Banxico, has lowered its interest rate to 6.75% despite inflation reaching its highest level since 2024. The decision was made by a split vote within the bank, with one sub-governor supporting a rate cut and the majority voting to lower the rate. The bank cited the impact of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East on its decision.
