It was the first time the bank cut the rate since June 22 last year.Last year the bank raised its key interest rate as it tried to combat soaring inflation. The hike of a percentage point and a quarter took the rate to 7%, the highest level since early 1999. It was the ninth straight increase since June 2021.The move took place at the last meeting of the bank’s board on monetary policy under outgoing governor Jiri Rusnok.On July 1, Rusnok was replaced by Ales Michl, a member of the bank’s board since 2018 who opposed previous rate hikes.Thursday’s move was expected by most analysts.Inflation in the Czech Republic soared to 18% in September last year.
