The Interest Rate Decision is announced by the Central Bank of Brazil. If the bank is hawkish about the inflationary outlook of the economy and rises the interest rates, it is seen as positive, or bullish, for the BRL, while a dovish outlook for the economy (or a rate cut) is seen as negative, or bearish, for the currency.
