Namibia’s central bank reduced its key interest rate by 25 basis points to 6.75%, citing stable inflation and slow economic growth. The country’s economy faces risks from escalating US-South Africa tensions due to its economic ties with both nations. Economic growth is forecast to accelerate to 4% in 2025, up from 3.5% in 2024, with international reserves expected to reach 65 billion Namibian dollars by January’s end.
