Welcome to the Corpay Cross-Border team!
Showing the ruble at 111 on offshore markets at the moment, meaning that the currency has dropped roughly -30% from early-February levels. Onshore inflation is likely approaching late-nineties levels. The human suffering must be immense.
After the Bank of Russia imposed capital controls and doubled benchmark interest rates, the ruble recovered somewhat, climbing back toward the 100 mark (although pricing remains very thin and erratic). This implies an ~-18% drop from Friday levels.
Absolutely brutal collapse in the ruble tonight - down more than 40%. This exceeds the loss suffered on August 26, 1998 during the height of the Russian Financial Crisis.
Just for folks who don’t do FX/or are without BBG/Reuters, we’re not seeing any activity on ruble yet. No one is making a market - but that’s normal for this time slot. Volumes typically begin to pick up at around 16:00 EDT, and don’t reach normal levels till well after 17:00.
Corpay's Karl Schamotta (@vsualst), joins @BNNBloomberg to discuss the market reaction to inflation figures. He says that a sell-off in the market is to be expected as investors anticipate an interest rate hike to address rising inflation.
