Please refer to DMMD Circular No. 11 dated March 29, 2019. Following changes are announced with reference to this circular:

1. SBP has decided to increase its ‘Policy Rate’ (Target Rate) from 10.75% to 12.25%.

2. The SBP Overnight Reverse Repo (Ceiling) rate will be at 12.75% i.e. 50 bps above the SBP Policy Rate.

3. The SBP Overnight Repo (Floor) rate will be at 10.75% i.e. 150 bps below the SBP Policy Rate.

4. Accordingly, the Floor and Ceiling levels for the Interest Rate Corridor are 10.75% and 12.75% p.a. respectively (i.e. width of 200bps).

SBP will ensure that money market overnight rate remains close to the SBP Policy Rate (Target Rate).
