A financial analyst told this medium that the intervention of the governor was timely as businesses in general are not attractive as before due to the covid-19 pandemic.
"The reduction will add volume to sustain businesses and Governor Saidy should be commended for his bold initiative in making sure that the high interest rates have been reduced to allow businesses to flourish."
"Bank Managers should also be commended to response positively to the appeal of the governor at a time when covid-19 has killed businesses."
