Questions about the Mozambique score
- What does a score of 34.4 mean for Mozambique?
- 34.4/100, band < 35: target and outturn are barely related, which is what a lost anchor looks like. That is 15.6 points below the 50 mid-point of the scale. Seven weighted dimensions produce the figure and no analyst adjusts it afterwards. Nothing in it is a forecast — it grades what Mozambique's central bank has already done, said and delivered.
- How often is Mozambique's score updated?
- Nightly, off that day's public releases; this page carries the 2026-09-08 run. There is no reading from seven days ago to set this one against. A 90-day trailing average damps single prints, so a weekly move past a couple of points is a real one. Tomorrow's run replaces the 2026-09-08 figure outright rather than revising it in place.
- What is the < 35 credibility band?
- Five bands cut the scale — ≥ 80, 65–80, 50–65, 35–50, < 35 — and < 35 is step 5. Mozambique clears its 0 floor by 34.4 and stops 0.6 short of 35. Nothing sits below < 35; the step back up is 35–50. Bands grade monetary behaviour, not default risk, so none of this is a credit rating.
