One reason why the RBI has been staving off a rate cut is due to the uncertainty created by the impending Federal Reserve’s rate hike. Unprecedented volatility is expected in global financial market once the US begins monetary policy normalization. This includes increasing the Fed funds rate from the near-zero level and selling bonds and other securities bought as part of its QE programme.
There is widespread (A) that the Indian bond market will see a large (B) of foreign portfolio funds once the Fed starts hiking. This is because bond investors have a shorter investment horizon and tend to be more (C) to currency fluctuation. The withdrawal of around $13 billion between June and November 2013, comprising around a third of the cumulative inflows till then, is probably playing at the back of the RBI’s mind now. But the central bank can rest easy on this count. The behaviour of foreign investors in Indian bonds has been different in the recent bout of volatility. The (D) in financial markets began from August 11, when China pegged the Yuan reference rate 2 per cent lower. The rupee is down more than 4 per cent since then. But while FPIs have pulled $3.2 billion out of the Indian equity market in this period, the outflow from the debt segment is mere $139.7 million.
Since interest rate on sovereign bonds is an important determinant of FPI flows into debt, the RBI had been reluctant to cut rate so far. But foreign investors appear reluctant to (E) money out of Indian debt this time. The relatively attractive real returns of Indian sovereign bonds and the strength in the Indian currency is resulting in a strong demand for Indian debt among foreign investors. They have currently invested almost up to the upper limit allowed for bond investment. Recent bond auctions also show that they are willing to bid a higher premium. Clearly, the case for a rate cut from the RBI just got stronger.
