Actually mebbe this 55bp cut by Maybank was something that they have work out with BNM.

Explains why BNM went for 75bp cut VS the widely anticipated 50bp cut.

The deep cut is a very different picture painted by BNM as compared to our Finance Minister's statement.

It means that our GDP is stalling or shrinking.

As for those offering higher FD Rate, it means that those Banks need more cash.

OPR reduction doesnt always equate to BLR reduction smile.gif

BLR depends on Bank's cost of funds. That is why AmBank's BLR at 6.55% the last time BLR @ 6.50%.

Some Bank's BLR is higher, and ideally they will just follows MayBank and CIMB to stay competitive.
