BIS Central Bank Policy Rates API
The headline interest rate of every major central bank in the world, side by side, served live from the Bank for International Settlements' open statistics API — no key, nothing cached. The BIS compiles the official policy rate for around 40 monetary authorities — the Federal Reserve, the ECB, the Bank of England, the Bank of Japan and dozens more — onto one consistent monthly series. The policy-rates endpoint returns the current rate for every central bank in a single call, ranked from highest to lowest, so you can see the whole global rate landscape at a glance: in mid-2026 Türkiye near 37% at the top and the US Federal Reserve around 3.6%. The country endpoint returns one central bank's policy rate with its full history and its latest move. The changes endpoint compares each bank's two most recent readings and reports who has hiked, who has cut and who is on hold, with the size of the move — the global rate-cycle dashboard. Everything is the BIS's own compiled data, live, nothing stored; rates are monthly. This is the global monetary-policy layer for any macro, fixed-income, forex or research app. Distinct from single-central-bank APIs — this is every central bank's policy rate in one place, from the BIS. 3 endpoints, no key on our side.
