How this market settles
What could still go wrong
- The end date of 2026-11-26T01:59:00Z appears to reference a November 2026 meeting, but it is unclear which year's November meeting is intended if the question was created in a different year.
- No explicit source URL is provided for the official rate decision, though 'official policy rate decision announced by the central bank' is specified.
- The description states cancelled/delayed meetings resolve 'Maintain current rate' to Yes and others to No, which means this market would resolve No if the meeting is cancelled — this is a special condition that could cause disputes if meeting timing is ambiguous.
- The upper bound of exactly 25bps is included, but it is unclear whether a hike of exactly 25bps counts as within the 1-25bps range (appears to be inclusive based on wording).
