印度卢比有望在亚洲其他货币疲软的背景下走强,原因是离岸交易商正在削减对亚洲货币的看跌押注,且市场预期央行将继续抛售美元以提供支撑。
The Indian rupee is poised to rally despite weakness across Asian peers, with offshore traders cutting bets against the Asian currency and expectations of continued central bank dollar selling lending support.
交易商称,卢比预计将在94.75至94.80区间开盘,此前周四收盘价为每美元95.0550卢比。其他亚洲货币出现下跌,美元指数小幅上扬。
The rupee is expected to open in the 94.75 to 94.80 range, per traders, having settled at 95.0550 to the dollar on Thursday. Other Asian currencies dipped and the dollar index inched higher.
一位外资银行的货币交易员表示,本周“相当数量”的美元/卢比多头头寸正在被平仓。
There has been "a fair amount" of unwinding of long USD/INR positions this week, a currency trader at a foreign bank said.
这正在非交割远期市场上支撑卢比,而印度央行“相当坚定”地推动卢比走高,因此做多美元的头寸可能还有进一步被削减的空间,他补充道。
That is supporting the rupee in the non-deliverable forward market and with the Reserve Bank of India "quite determined" to push the rupee higher, there's probably more room for long dollar positions to be cut, he added.
非交割远期市场上的美元/卢比汇率正以贴水形式交易于其岸上对应汇率,这是一种罕见现象,尤其在卢比前景仍然充满挑战的情况下。
The dollar/rupee rate in the NDF market is trading at a discount to its onshore counterpart, a rare phenomenon, particularly at a time when the rupee's outlook remains challenging.
本周卢比走出了独立行情,这得益于印度央行一系列旨在抑制美元需求并支撑货币的措施。
The rupee has charted its own course this week, buoyed by a series of measures by the RBI to curb dollar demand and support the currency.
这些措施包括对某些大额外汇交易的远期美元买入设定准备金要求。然而,由于不清楚哪些交易被纳入其中,导致银行家们产生困惑,进而在印度外汇远期市场引发显著动荡。
The measures included a reserve requirement on certain large foreign-exchange transactions for forward dollar purchases. However, a lack of clarity over which transactions were covered sowed confusion among bankers, triggering significant turbulence in India's FX forward market.
多家银行暂停向其他银行报价,导致流动性下降,并加剧了价格波动。为应对这些担忧,印度央行在周四收市后发布了澄清。
Several banks held back from quoting prices to other banks, contributing to a drop in liquidity and exacerbating price moves. Seeking to address the concerns, the RBI issued clarifications after market hours on Thursday.
一家银行的高级财资官员表示,虽然这些澄清“有很大帮助”,但仍有一些模糊之处和疑问未被消除。
A senior treasury official at a bank said while the clarifications "help a lot," a few ambiguities and doubts remained.
卢比远期溢价本周在流动性紧张和银行削减头寸的背景下出现激增。该财资官员表示,这些澄清应有助于缓解这些市场错位。
