Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - February 12, 2020

EM currencies advanced yesterday amid the growing risk appetite. The ruble received additional tailwinds from rising oil prices and late reports that the Russian government would buy the CBR's stake in Sberbank, which would reduce the volume of hard currency purchases by the Finance Ministry. We think the local currency could strengthen 1.4-3.0% from current levels when the deal's details become clear, the exact amount depending on how long the FX selling will last. The ruble outperformed its peers with a gain of 1.2% yesterday, closing at 63.38 to the dollar.
