TUNIS  - Tunisia's central bank kept its key interest rate unchanged at 6.25 percent, the bank said on Thursday.

The central bank cut the rate in October by 50 basis points aiming to stimulate investment and push faltering growth. That followed a 100 basis point rate cut in March 2020 responding to the coronavirus outbreak.
