SEOUL, Oct 22 : The Bank of Korea left its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.00 per cent on Thursday, pausing after back-to-back quarter-point hikes in July and August.
The seven-member monetary policy board at the BOK voted to keep the seven-day repurchase rate at 3.00 per cent, a decision that was forecast by all 34 analysts surveyed by Reuters.
Governor Shin Hyun Song will hold a news conference at 0210 GMT.
