Russia FX/Rates Snapshot - June 18, 2018

The CBR left the key rate unchanged at 7.25% on Friday and made a very hawkish statement, citing the VAT hike and possible rise of inflation expectations. It seems that the bank intends to cut the rate to this level only in 2019. This pushed swap rates and yields on OFZs with maturity up to 10y up 20 bps, while OFZs with tenors more than 10y yielded 10 bps higher. Markets seem to have now ruled out any cuts at least in the next 12 months, which we think may be overdone.
