智利央行在4月份的会议上一致将货币政策利率维持在5%不变，这是连续第四次保持不变。这一决定反映了全球不确定性的加剧，特别是在美国4月初宣布新的关税之后，这给经济增长和通胀预期带来了压力。全球金融市场波动加剧，美国长期利率大幅上升，股市和货币走势喜忧参半。尽管如此，智利当地的金融状况有所改善，利率下降，比索走强，股市上涨。在出口相关行业和国内需求改善的支持下，经济活动正在逐步复苏。3月份，整体通胀率为4.9%，而核心通胀率降至3.7%。央行重申其谨慎灵活的货币政策，旨在引导通胀在未来两年内达到3%的目标。

The Central Bank of Chile unanimously kept its monetary policy interest rate unchanged at 5% during its April meeting, marking the fourth consecutive hold. The decision reflects heightened global uncertainty, particularly after the US announced new tariffs in early April, which have weighed on growth and inflation expectations. Global financial markets have seen increased volatility, with long-term US interest rates rising sharply and stock markets and currencies experiencing mixed movements. Despite this, Chile’s local financial conditions have improved, with declines in interest rates, a stronger peso, and gains in the stock market. Economic activity is gradually recovering, supported by export-related sectors and improving domestic demand. In March, headline inflation stood at 4.9%, while core inflation eased to 3.7%. The Central Bank reiterated its cautious and flexible approach to monetary policy, aiming to guide inflation toward its 3% target over the next two years.
