Swiss National Bank holds interest rate steady.
The Swiss National Bank announced today its decision to keep its interest rate unchanged. The current Libor target range is 2.25-3.25 percent with the SNB aiming for the center of that range for a 2.75 percent rate. Citing a global economic slowdown and acknowledging an "uncertainty" in inflation, the Chairman of the Governing Board Jean-Pierre Roth stated in his speech that SNB felt that a change in policy was "unnecessary under the current circumstances." This is the first time in two years that the SNB has held rates steady. Read the statement here(pdf).
