Understanding Global Interest Rates

Central banks around the world set policy interest rates to control inflation, support economic growth, and maintain financial stability. These rates influence borrowing costs, currency values, and investment decisions across global markets.

Higher Rates (4.5%+)
  • Combat high inflation
  • Cool down overheating economies
  • Strengthen currency value
  • Higher borrowing costs for consumers
Lower Rates (0-2%)
  • Stimulate economic growth
  • Encourage business investment
  • Make borrowing more affordable
  • Support employment levels
Note: Rates shown are policy rates as of November 2025. Central banks update their rates at regular monetary policy meetings. Visit our homepage for live Euribor rates and ECB meeting schedules.
