Short-term interbank rates are expected to remain steady next week, underpinned by Bank Negara Malaysia’s (BNM) continued operations to absorb excess liquidity from the financial system.
This week, the central bank intervened daily by conducting reverse repo tenders, overnight reverse repo tenders and Islamic reverse repo tenders to reduce excess funds in the financial system.
On a weekly basis, surplus liquidity in the conventional system rose to RM21.0 billion on Friday from RM17.0 billion a week earlier.
In the Islamic system, surplus liquidity fell to RM25.1 billion compared with RM30.4 billion previously.
The Malaysia Islamic Overnight Rate (MYOR-i) stood at 2.75 per cent as of July 30, 2025. — BERNAMA
