Accordingly, CBRT has reduced the interest rate to be paid to freely held foreign currency accounts by 75 basis points.

With the decision, the interest rate applied to the portion of Turkish Lira-denominated and notified foreign exchange deposit account balances established with interest has been reduced from 4.50% to 3.75%.

The Central Bank will announce its policy interest rate decision today at 14:00.
