🇨🇱 Chile – Wednesday, 9 September 2026 Chile's central bank held its policy rate at 4.5% Tuesday for a sixth straight meeting, unanimously and as all 18 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had expected, citing intensified Middle East risk alongside a domestic economy it still called fragile. August headline inflation came in at 4.1% annually, core at 3.3%. No ruling yet on Perivancich's SQM nullity appeal, which the Santiago Court of Appeals must now decide, and no new detail on Escalona's funeral arrangements since the weekend. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-09-08/chile-holds-key-rate-at-4-5-on-inflation-risks-and-weak-economy Previously:
