Analysts see Brazilian rates falling up to 23%

São Paulo, 19 - The Central Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (Copom) is
expected to hold a meeting beginning at 4h30 p.m. (7h30 p.m. GMT) this
Wednesday to define Brazil's interest rates.
According to the Central Bank Monetary Policy director, Luiz Fernando
Figueiredo, the Federal Reserve's decision to leave benchmark interest
rates unchanged but alter the bias toward higher rates should not have a
greater impact on Brazilian markets. "The decision was within
expectations", he explained.

to some 23% to 25%, down from the current rate of 27%. (By Josué Leonel)
