This study also conducted to understand the movement of all the variables over the 10 years period from 2001 to 2010. All data were collected on quarterly basis.

According to the findings, in Malaysia, only inflation rates show significance relationships towards the interest rates and the relationships are positives. This means that if Malaysian inflation rates rise, the interest rates will also rises.
