01 Feb 2012 Evaluate

Interbank call money rates were trading higher at 9.00/9.10% from Tuesday's close of 8.60/8.65% as demand for funds stayed strong in the first week of the two-week reporting cycle amidst cash supply tight. Although, the liquidity released by the cut in cash reserve ratio (CRR) helped reduce the strain on supply to some extent, the liquidity injected has not proved significant enough to ease the pressure on the cash rates.

The overnight borrowing rates has touched a high of 8.70% and a low of 7.00%, so far.
