OPR stays at 3.25%


Malaysia's central bank is likely to cut its benchmark rate to 3% at a policy review on Tuesday to cope with a slowdown in growth, a slim majority of analysts in a Reuters poll said.

PETALING JAYA: The Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) has been maintained at 3.25%, with economists expecting the rate to be left unchanged through the first half of 2019.

The last change in the OPR was in January this year, when the interest rate was raised by 25 basis points (bps).
