ALMATY, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Persistent inflation risks mean that the Kazakh central bank's policy rate needs to be kept at the current level of 16.75%, deputy bank governor Berik Sholpankulov said on Tuesday. The central bank last reviewed its rate a month ago and the next review is due on Feb. 24. (Reporting by Olzhas Auyezov; Editing by Himani Sarkar)
