The interest rate decision: the governor punished Smotrich - voila! Of money. The winds of war and the broken budget forced the governor to take, and rightly so, a conservative and cautious approach.

The decision was made because of justified caution by the governor. Although the interest rate is expected to drop during the year two or three more times (below 4%), but not this time.
