World financial news
German 10-year bunds posted their biggest weekly gain this year as signs that global growth is slowing boosted demand for the euro area’s safest assets. Two years notes also rose the most since December after industry data showed euro-region manufacturing and services shrank more than economic forecasts.

Spain’s 10-year yields climbed for a third week after Citigroup Inc. chief economist Willem Buiter said the nation faced an increasing risk of requiring a debt restructuring. Greek securities maturing in February 2023 fell to their lowest since the nation secured the largest debt in history.

“People still aren’t wholeheartedly convinced that all Europe’s problems are solved”, said Eric Wand, a fixed-income strategist at Lloyds bank Corporate Markets in London. “There are still some clear implementation risks around Europe and that’s keeping an underlying bid in bunds”.

The Monetary Policy Comittee (MPC) of the National Bank of Rwanda (BNR) have decided in his meeting on March 16th, the monetary and exchange rate policy implemented to date continued to sustain Rwanda’s macroeconomic stability. Also mentioned was that the finacial sector was sound and resilient to external shocks, inflation remained moderate and the Rwandan franc was stable.
The headline inflation is expected to remain stable in the second quarter of this year as a result of pursuing tight monetary policy, good coordination between the monetary and fiscal policies and other Government policy measures aiming at mitigaiting exogenous supply shocks. Latest inflation of January was at 7.8 percent down from 8.3 percent in December.
In view of this points, the committee decided to maintain a tight monetary policy stance by keeping the Central Bank Rate at 7 percent.
