The Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates (CBUAE) left the Base Rate on its Overnight Deposit Facility unchanged at 4.40 percent on 30 July 2025, matching the U.S. Federal Reserve’s decision to keep the Interest Rate on Reserve Balances steady, in line with the CBUAE’s policy of anchoring its monetary stance to the Fed benchmark. The Base Rate has been maintained at 4.40 percent at every meeting since January 2025. The central bank also kept the rate on short-term liquidity borrowing via its standing credit facilities at 50 basis points above the Base Rate, confirming the latter’s role as the floor for overnight money-market rates in the UAE.
