This brings SA's repo rate to 4.25%.
Today's announcement was the second major cut in less than a month, after the central bank cut the rate by one percentage point in mid-March.
"The May 2020 meeting of the MPC was moved earlier and took place today [Tuesday]," the bank said in a tweet.
The last time the SARB dropped its rate, the Bank of Namibia governor Iipumbu Shiimi, now finance minister, convened a special meeting of the BoN’s monetary policy committee.
The BoN dropped its repo also by 100 bps to 5.25% the next day, the lowest in the history of an independent Namibia.
