  • Interest Rates

  • Hi friends,

    just want to keep u alert about the current interest rate run. as we know gov is holding 2 elections which exceeds the budgeted expenditure.As a result IMF loan had been delayed.And i hav seen in the banking market the gov is borrowing BIG TIME.pushing the short term interest rates up.This is possibly to fund the up coming election.we hav withnessed even in the bond market tenors for 2-3 yrs hav moved up.
    Even some ppl say mkt is overheated.

    my concern is if gov would failed to maintain the fiscal policy interest rates might attract the market funds.
    But this is still a short term view till gen elections.Lets hope eve thing will settle after that with more foreign confidence.

    pls add ur comments

  • Still we are not in the higher interest rate range (above 17% interest rate in Sri-Lankan standard)

    Globally above 10%conside as higher interest rate.
