The Board of Directors of the Central Bank of Costa Rica agreed to reduce the Monetary Policy Rate by 25 basis points, which as of September 19, 2025 will be 3.50% per annum.
This decision responds to the downward trajectory of inflation and to the fact that expectations have adjusted towards values close to 2%, the lower limit of the tolerance range established by the entity.
The Central Bank pointed out that the national economy maintains a relatively high growth and close to its potential level, with improvements in employment and real wages. However, uncertainties persist in the international context due to trade barriers implemented this year.
With this measure, the monetary authority reaffirms its commitment to price stability and the preservation of the country's macroeconomic stability.
