What happened

Well supportedReported by 27 independent outlets

The Reserve Bank of India carried out currency swaps worth at least $10 billion in recent weeks to reduce liquidity in the financial system. These sell-buy swaps involved the RBI selling dollars to banks in exchange for rupees, a transaction that drains rupee liquidity from the system. Rates on dollar-rupee contracts maturing in three to six months have climbed this month, reflecting the central bank’s activity.

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The swaps were conducted as the central bank seeks to curb inflation risks stemming from a surplus of cash. This action follows significant inflows of foreign capital, which pushed surplus banking liquidity to a record level.
