Logo of Saudi Central Bank (SAMA)
The Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) lifted today, July 26, its reverse repo rate by 25 basis points (bps) from 525 bps to 550 bps (5.50%). It also raised its repo rate by 25 bps to 600 bps from 575 bps (6%).
The move aligns with SAMA’s goals to maintain monetary stability and support financial stability.
The Federal Reserve hiked its key interest rate at the range of 5.25% and 5.50%, from the previous range of 5% and 5.25%.
The US central bank earlier raised interest rates for 10 consecutive times, the last of which was in May.
SAMA follows the interest rate moves of the US Federal Reserve due to the riyal-US dollar peg.
