Turkish Central Bank Governor Signals High Interest Rates Will Persist Through July
  • Turkish Central Bank Governor Fatih Karahan has ruled out resuming weekly repo funding before the next interest rate-setting meeting on July 23.
  • The move effectively locks in higher borrowing costs for at least another month as the central bank seeks to assess inflation readings.
  • Karahan communicated this stance to investors during a meeting in London, emphasizing that restarting repo funding prematurely would not be logical given current inflation monitoring needs.
