Fubotv earnings beat by $0.10, revenue topped estimates
Investing.com -- The National Bank of Serbia has decided to keep its one-week repurchase rate steady at 5.75% for a seventh consecutive month.
This decision was expected by most economists, with 15 out of 17 surveyed by Bloomberg predicting this outcome. Only two economists had anticipated a quarter-point reduction in the rate.
This decision comes amid a period of persistent inflation, which has been lingering near the upper limit of the central bank's 1.5%-4.5% tolerance range since July.
The Serbian economy has been experiencing a slowdown, with growth estimated at 3% in the first quarter, a decrease from the 3.3% expansion in the previous three months.
The country's President, Aleksandar Vucic, attributed this slowdown in economic growth to numerous anti-government protests that have been taking place over the past few months.
He cited frequent road blockades, strikes, and demonstrations by university students and opposition activists as contributing factors to the slowing economy.
