The central bank of Russia opted for a cautious approach on Friday, reducing its key interest rate by 50 basis points to 14.5%. This decision aligned with analyst expectations but fell short of the aggressive cuts demanded by business leaders seeking to stimulate an economy that contracted by 1.8% during the first two months of the year.
