From a statement issued by the Bank of Guatemala (BANGUAT):

The Monetary Board, based on a comprehensive analysis of the external and internal situation, after having heard of the Inflation Risks Balance, has decided to reduce the level of leading monetary policy interest rate from 4% to 3.5% .

The Monetary Board, in the external environment, said that the global economy continues to recover at a moderate pace in the presence of downside risks. It also took into account the considerable reduction in the international price of oil and its derivatives and stability in the behavior of international prices of yellow corn and wheat, which modifies the trajectory of inflation downward.
