 "RBI to re-examine foreign investment limit in govt bonds: Rajan")
Mumbai: The Reserve Bank of India will re-examine foreign investment limit in government debt, central bank governor Raghuram Rajan told analysts in a conference call on Wednesday.
Rajan said that he expects the allocation available for foreign investors in government bonds to increase as short-term debt matures, but added the central bank would over time “re-examine the limit and see what we can do.”
As of Tuesday, 96.6 percent of India’s $25 billion government debt limit for foreign institutional investors was utilised.
Rajan also said the central bank is talking to Euroclear and other organisations to allow trading in Indian government bonds to be settled through their systems.
The RBI kept its key policy repo rate unchanged at 8.0 percent on Tuesday.
