Market Update : Shifting Trends : Higher Interest Rates - 05/03/2010

Bank Negara raises OPR by 25bps. Following last night’s +25bps adjustment to the overnight policy rate (OPR), the new cycle of rising interest rates in Malaysia has clearly begun.

There could be more adjustments in 2011 but this will be subject to the strength of the economic recovery.
