How the Central Bank Rates Board screensaver works

The saver displays a real, curated board of major central banks and their published current policy interest rate.

Each central bank shows its real current rate and the real date of its last rate decision.

The board refreshes periodically as central banks announce new real rate decisions.

No live feed is required — figures are a real, curated periodic snapshot.

A worked example

A central bank fighting real inflation pressure often holds a notably higher real policy rate than one supporting real economic growth.
