The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) aggressively sold dollars in the forward market in the December quarter as compared to the spot market, in an effort to support rupee liquidity in the system.

Sales in the forward market went up by $55 billion during the quarter, with $68 billion outstanding net forward sales at the end of December. During the same period, RBI sold $44 billion in the spot market, data from the central bank's February Bulletin showed. The biggest sales were in October when RBI sold $34 billion in the forward market, and $9 billion in the spot market.

"RBI intervention data suggests a possible shift in strategy from spot market interventions towards forward contracts. This approach may aim to minimize the impact on rupee liquidity while keeping currency volatility in check," said Anindya Banerjee, head of currency and commodity research, Kotak Securities.

imageRBI parked dollars for forward maturities beyond three months and up to one year in December, bulletin data showed. RBI parked $9.8 billion in this maturity basket as on 31 December. Typically, RBI parks dollars in the one to three month bucket.

It’s a term that reveals more about the future of programming than its whimsical name suggests.
