1-Day Reverse Repo Rate in Argentina
Throughout 2013-2022, Argentina's central bank policy rates saw dramatic changes in response to rampant inflation and economic instability. The rates were frequently adjusted upwards, particularly post-2018, as part of attempts to curb soaring inflation and stabilize the peso. By 2022, Argentina had some of the highest policy rates globally, reflecting persistent inflationary pressures and economic challenges. These high rates aimed to control inflation but also posed challenges for economic growth and access to credit.
The 7-Day LELIQ Rate ended 2022 at 75%, up from the 38% end-2021 value and significantly higher than the reading of 15.05% a decade earlier. For more interest rate information, visit our dedicated page.
