Why has system liquidity been progressively shrinking over last few
years?

4. Mutual Fund
THE PROCESS OF MONEY CREATION
Sources of Reserve Money Components of Reserve Money
Net RBI Credit to Govt : 37%
RBI Credit to Banks and Commercial Sector: 1%
Net Forex Assets of RBI : 100%
Govt’s Currency Liabilities to Public: 1%
(-) Net Non-Monetary Liabilities of RBI: 38%
Currency in Circulation: 72%
Bankers’ Deposit with RBI: 28%
Other Deposits with RBI : 0%
Why has the RBI had to resort to doing OMOs over the last few years?

5. Mutual Fund
HOW TO MEASURE ACTUAL BANKING SYSTEM LIQUIDITY
Does daily repo balance give an accurate picture of system liquidity?
Actual liquidity is measured as the difference between system cash and
average daily balance to be maintained

6. Mutual Fund
1. Positive Drivers
• Forex Intervention by RBI (buy dollars, sell rupees)
• OMOs
• CRR cut
• Government Spending
2. Negative Drivers
• Forex Intervention by RBI (buy rupees, sell dollars)
• MSS / Bond sale to market
• CRR hike
• Net Rise in Currency with Public
• Government accumulating WMA surplus (tax collections, market borrowing etc)
• Deposit Growth ? (increases CRR requirement

KEY COMPONENTS OF AGGREGATE DEMAND (3QMA YOY%)
GOVT EXPENDITURE GROSS CAPITAL FORMATION PVT CONSUMPTION
Private consumption has
been anchor to growth
but is now slowing
Government expenditure
has also slowed and
given fiscal constraint is
unlikely to rise in year
ahead
Slower capital formation
lowers potential GDP
growth rate. This may
also cause inflation to
resurge sooner once
growth rebounds

FISCAL

13. Mutual Fund
- Fiscal deficit is expressed as a %age of market GDP
- Government borrowing may be rising even with falling fiscal deficit owing to rising
denominator
- Higher inflation may help fiscal deficit (nominal revenue growth as well as
denominator effect)

Possible pressure-points
Deteriorating trade balance on
slowing export growth (whereas
commodity imports remain high)
Portfolio investments have dried
up in last year. Partly
compensated by debt flows
(further ceiling relaxations for
FII Debt?)
Rupee volatility and challenging
external markets may make
ECBs less lucrative

YIELD CURVE AND TRIGGERS
1. Why Does Our Yield Curve Invert
• Shorter end has no ‘natural’ buyers and moves freely in
response to liquidity, C/D ratio, and expected RBI stance
• Long end has ‘artificial’ anchor from SLR demand and PF /
Insurers.
• Over recent years RBI’s OMO s have given additional support
to long end rates
2. What Can Cause the Inversion to Correct
• Better liquidity, falling C/D ratios, change in RBI stance
• Rise in net supply at long end
Basis our analysis of the above triggers, we think the yield curve will
remain inverted till March. However, starting April the curve should
incrementally start to steepen
