THE BASIC INTEREST RATE IN OUR COUNTRY IS ALREADY 1.42%

The Bulgarian National Bank has announced, as of January 1, 2023, the basic interest rate (simple annual interest) in the amount of 1.42%.

This is the fourth promotion in a row. In December, the interest rate reached 1.30%. In November, the main interest rate was 0.59 percent, and in October - 0.49 percent. Then, for the first time since 2016, the basic interest rate went above zero.
