When making a decision on the key rate in October, the Central Bank will proceed from the realities that will develop by that time. This decision will be "balanced". This was stated by Alexey Zabotkin, Deputy chairman of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, during a meeting of the joint working group in the State Duma, where he was asked by the regulator to "arrange a holiday for the budget and entrepreneurs" and lower the key rate, reducing the spread between the rate and current inflation.

"On October 24, the Board of Directors will make an informed decision based on all the information it will have by that time," Zabotkin replied to the request.
