28.05.202601:00:00UTC+00Bank of Korea Holds Policy Rate at 2.50% in May, Extending Pause Amid Uncertain Outlook

The Bank of Korea left its key interest rate unchanged at 2.50% in May 2026, maintaining the level set at its previous decision in April 2026. According to the latest update on 28 May 2026, the benchmark rate “has stopped and reached” 2.50%, signaling a continued pause in the central bank’s tightening or easing cycle.

By keeping the rate steady for a second consecutive month, policymakers in South Korea are opting for continuity in monetary conditions as they assess domestic and global economic developments. The unchanged stance at 2.50% suggests the central bank is weighing inflation dynamics against growth risks, preferring to hold its position while awaiting clearer signals from incoming data and international financial markets.
