At its last meeting, the central bank unexpectedly raised its key interest rate by 25 basis points.

On Friday, the New Zealand Dollar NZD/USD advanced and traded around $0.6261, holding its highest level in three weeks. This was driven by a weaker US dollar as the Federal Reserve refrained from raising rates earlier in the week, while other major central banks preferred to continue tightening monetary policy.
