English language (monolingual) [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / interest rates
English term or phrase: accommodation
Powerpoint presentation (Large investment fund) : Themes for 2007

Slide title:
Interest rates: no return to ***accommodation***

Text:
Interest rate rises insufficient to choke off growth
Global rates “normalising”
Tightening cycle not yet restrictive
Little reason it should become so

There is also a drawing showing interests rates falling down to 0% in Q2 2005 and rising since then.

My first thought was about short term bark loan, but maybe there are some other (= better) suggestions?

Notes to answerer
Asker: But does the text make sense then? Growing interest rates inffluence many things, but why should they be an obstacle in getting (short term) loan? Banks are more interested in granting them, possible investment profit makes loans more attractive.
