The decision by the Overseas Note-Issuing Institute (IEOM), its second hike this year, brings that rate to 0.75%.

The IEOM also raised the deposit facility rate at its previous meeting in July by 20bp, to 0%. It also raised other key rates, hiking the six-month liquidity rate for banks by 55bp in September following a 50bp raise in July, to 0.95%.
