Overview
Chile's lending rate stood at 4.18% in 2018, a decline of +0.37pp from 2017. Chile ranked 11th globally.
Chile's lending rate has experienced significant fluctuations over the past three decades, with the all-time peak of 48.87% occurring in 1990, a year marked by high inflation and economic instability. This rate decreased substantially to 4.18% in 2018, the lowest recorded value, indicating a considerable improvement in Chile's economic conditions. The current lending rate is comparable to that of San Marino, which also experienced a notable decrease in its lending rate in recent years. This downward trend is indicative of Chile's solid economic foundation and its ability to maintain low inflation rates. However, a change in monetary policy or external economic factors could alter this trajectory, potentially leading to an increase in the lending rate as seen in other countries with comparable economic conditions.
