Stock Market LIVE News: 'INR Undergoing Structural Adjustment Towards A Weaker Fair Value'
Commenting on recent developments related to the Iran conflict and the implications for the FX market, Tanay Dalal, Senior Vice President II - Business & Economic Research, Axis Bank said "Recent developments related to the Iran conflict have merely brought forward currency moves we have been highlighting for some time. The INR is undergoing a structural adjustment towards a weaker fair value, driven by sustained capital outflows and a shrinking pool of global savings rather than any single geopolitical event. Rising defence led fiscal spending globally is absorbing savings that were earlier available for investment, while capital flows are once again being priced with a geopolitical risk premium. As a result, the REER is gradually reversing a part of its 2010s outperformance, with RBI intervention focused on smoothing volatility rather than resisting the underlying adjustment, as balance of payments dynamics move fair value closer to current levels."
