Today European markets are responding positively to the anticipated interest rate cut by the European Central Bank (ECB). Investors are optimistic that the rate cut will stimulate economic growth and support financial markets. Here are some key points: Stock Market Performance: European stock markets have seen gains as investors anticipate the rate cut. The prospect of lower borrowing costs is generally favorable for businesses and can boost investor confidence. Bond Yields: Government bond yields have fallen in anticipation of the rate cut, reflecting the market's expectation of lower interest rates. This can make bonds less attractive compared to stocks, leading to a shift in investor preferences. Currency Impact: The euro has weakened slightly against other major currencies as investors anticipate the rate cut. A lower interest rate typically reduces the attractiveness of a currency, leading to depreciation. Sector Performance: Sectors that benefit from lower interest rates, such as real estate and utilities, have seen positive movements. These sectors often perform well when borrowing costs are reduced. Overall, the European markets are reacting favorably to the expected rate cut, with gains in stock markets and adjustments in bond yields and currency values.

The crawling peg is a system of exchange rate adjustments in which a currency with a fixed exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate within a band of rates. The method fully uses the key attributes of the fixed exchange regime, as well as the flexibility of the floating exchange rate regime. Currently, only three countries -- Botswana, Honduras, and Nicaragua – use a crawling peg, according to the IMF. Crawling pegs are often used to control currency moves when there is a threat of devaluation due to factors such as inflation or economic instability.
BB to adopt crawling peg. Can it end exchange rate volatility?

Bank of Russia considered increasing key rate to 17% in February The rate increase was supported by a noticeable deterioration in foreign trade terms, including a drop in commodity market prices February 27/ The Board of Directors of the Bank of Russia considered two options at the first meeting in 2024 on the key rate - maintaining it at 16% and raising the rate by 100 basis points to 17%, the regulator said. "Taking into account the facts acquired from the December decision on the key rate and the updated forecast, the discussion participants examined two solutions - maintaining the key rate at 16% per annum and increasing the key rate by 100 basis points to 17%," the statement said. The rate increase was supported by a noticeable deterioration in foreign trade terms, including a drop in commodity market prices, as well as the risk of underestimating the economy's output gap or the speed with which it will be closed. Furthermore, by early February, there was no obvious sign of an ongoing drop in inflation, the regulator said. On February 16, the Bank of Russia decided to maintain the key rate at 16% per annum at its first meeting in 2024, indicating that it is too early to judge the sustainability of the emerging disinflationary trends. "On 16 February 2024, the Bank of Russia Board of Directors decided to keep the key rate at 16.00% per annum. Current inflationary pressures have eased compared with the autumn months but remain high. Domestic demand is still outstripping the capabilities to expand the production of goods and services. A judgement on the sustainable nature of emerging disinflationary trends would be premature. The Bank of Russia’s monetary policy is set to solidify disinflation processes unfolding in the national economy," the regulator said. The Bank of Russia will hold its next key rate review meeting on March 22, 2024. #business #finance #financialservices
