Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - January 22, 2020

Asian stock benchmarks recovered somewhat this morning, while EM currencies have made gains. It would appear that investors are eager to hold onto their riskier assets until further developments regarding the outbreak are reported. The ruble should find support from both domestic and external factors today. As for the former, last night's announcement of the new cabinet in Russia should help to lift some of the political uncertainty that had been weighing on the ruble. Moreover, the current USD/RUB rate, at just under 62, is likely attractive for exporters looking to buy rubles ahead of the Monday deadline for some R500 bln in MET payments, and probably also for foreigners looking to participate in today's OFZ auction.
