About Interest Rate — Brazil
DEFINITION
Interest rate is a financial indicator that measures the cost of borrowing money or the return on lending money. It is expressed as a percentage and is used to determine the cost of loans, mortgages, and other financial products. Interest rates are influenced by various economic factors and can have a significant impact on the overall economy, as well as individual consumers and businesses. They are closely monitored by investors, policymakers, and financial institutions to make informed decisions about investments and monetary policies.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Policy-rate decisions and associated communication are the primary near-term driver of front-end rates, currencies, and equity-discount-rate inputs. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
