Passive rate rises to 5,40%

The passive rate (TBP) will rise to 5,40% from May 12th, five points over the last update.

This figure it’s still in the lowest levels since 2008.

This week’s rise was influenced by a rise in the rates effectively paid by public banks and mutual funds for all maturities.

This rate is used by financial institutions as a reference to calculate long-term loans in colones.
