Call rates edge higher on Thursday

26 May 2011 Evaluate

The Inter-bank call money rates were at 7.40/7.45% stronger from Wednesday's close of 7.30/40% due to firm demand in the first week of the reporting fortnight. The call rates are expected to remain consistently high at this level until the monetary policy review on June 16. The market widely expects the central bank to raise rates by another 25 basis points when it meets to review monetary policy. Further, dealers expect outflows related to corporate' advance tax payment due in mid-June to further pressure liquidity, thereby causing the rates to soar higher.
