Monetary policy will address economic challenges: NRB Governor Poudel



KAILALI: Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) Governor Dr. Biswo Poudel has said the upcoming monetary policy will be designed to address key economic challenges and introduce reforms to support national economic recovery.

Speaking at an interaction program organized by NRB’s Dhangadhi branch on Monday, Governor Poudel held discussions with business leaders, borrowers, financial institutions, and other stakeholders.

He stated that recent events had disrupted Nepal’s economy and emphasized the central bank’s commitment to responding with appropriate corrective measures.

“The next monetary policy will be formulated based on real issues faced by the people,” Governor Poudel said, highlighting the importance of gathering input from local stakeholders. He noted that his visit to Dhangadhi was part of an effort to better understand public grievances related to the national economy.

He also stressed the importance of improving coordination between banks, financial institutions, and the private sector.

“Stronger collaboration is necessary to create a dynamic and resilient economy,” he said.

Governor Poudel’s remarks come at a time when the country is facing sluggish growth, tight liquidity, and low private sector confidence.

The new monetary policy, expected to be released in the coming weeks, will aim to balance economic stabilization with the need for investment and growth.
