India Brief - June 2023
Wednesday June 07, 2023
India’s fourth-quarter (Jan-Mar 2023) GDP growth came in at a stronger-than-expected 6.1%, lifting full-year growth to 7.1% - slightly above the official forecast. This momentum has carried over into the new year, with the PMI numbers, GST receipts, vehicle sales etc all holding strong. Inflation is also trending downwards, making it almost inevitable that the RBI will hold steady on policy rates at this week’s MPC meeting. On the other hand, foreign trade continues to shrink.
Executive Briefings Politics & Economy: Libor
Friday June 02, 2023
Libor will cease to exist with effect from June 30, 2023. The benchmarks replacing it are better structured. As a start there is one for each of Libor’s five currencies – the secured overnight financing rate Sofra for the dollar, Sonia for the pound, Tonar for the yen, Saron for the Swiss franc and the euro short-term rate (€str) for the euro. The way this works is that they measure borrowing costs on actual transactions, rather than trusting bankers to respond honestly to a daily questionnaire, as was the basis of determining the Libor rate. The US dollar Sofra, report rates in the repo market (for loans secured against government bonds) rather than for bank deposits. CFOs, specifically those with large treasuries, are struggling through this transition on negotiations with lenders and money managers. It will be a few months before things begin to settle.
