Briefing Romania
Large turnover in EUR/RON
EUR/RON
After an initial test at 4.7600, the EUR/RON inched up and traded heavily around 4.7630. The turnover for the day was above average. With the global risk-off mood prevailing today and domestic politics heating up (as the unity of the parliamentary majority is about to be tested) we could see upward pressure on the EUR/RON. In the 4.7650-4.7700 area, the central bank is likely to curb the upside move. Hence, the range for the EUR/RON today is 4.7600-4.7700.
Government bonds
The ROMGBs yield curve inched a couple of basis points lower likely on some month-end inflows.
Money market
Implied cash rates stood just below 3.00% percent yesterday. The forward implied yield curve is pricing in ample liquidity conditions in the front-end on an upcoming RON8.9 billion bond redemption on 24-June. Hence, 1M implied is around 3.30% and 3M at 3.50%. However, with no meaningful redemption for the rest of the year and prospects for a weaker RON, the 1Y implied yield remains around 4.00%.
