 OECD leading indicator stable for Eurozone, slips for US and UK –
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation & Development
(OECD) has said that economic growth is showing further signs of
firming up in the Eurozone while growth looks to be easing to
around long-term trends in the US and the UK. According to the
OECD’s monthly leading indicator, a measure designed to flag
turning points in the international economy, trends are pointing
more strongly to a loss in growth momentum in Brazil and China.
The indicator, a synthetic index where 100 is the long-term
average, remained at 100.7 in the Eurozone for the fourth
consecutive month in June but continued to ease to 99.4 in the US
from 99.5 in May, having fallen below 100 in February. Britain’s
reading slipped to 99.8 in June, having dipped below 100 to 99.9 in
May. The index rose MoM to 100.8 from 100.7 in France and was
stable at 100.9 in Italy. The reading for Germany was stable at
100.0. China’s indicator continued its steady decline to 97.4 in June
from 97.5 in May. Brazil slipped to 98.8 from 99.0. OECD added
that a stable growth momentum is expected in Germany, Japan and
India while indications for Russia also point to a stable growth
momentum although below the long-term trend. (Reuters)
 Japanese consumer confidence falls to lowest in six months in July –
Japanese consumer confidence tumbled in July to the lowest in six
months, raising the risk of weakness in spending that could weigh
on the economy in 3Q2015. According to data released by the
Cabinet Office, an index of confidence dropped to 40.3 in July from
41.7 in June. Worsening sentiment could dampen personal
consumption, which has failed to fully recover from a sales-tax
hike in 2014. A separate survey on the outlook for economic
conditions over the next few months fell to the lowest since
January. (Bloomberg)
 China credit tumbles in July as funds used to prop up stock market –
China’s efforts to halt a stock market rout spurred a surge in new
lending to financial institutions last month while credit to the real
economy weakened. According to the People’s Bank of China
(PBoC), aggregate financing slumped to yuan 718.8bn in July from
yuan 1.86tn originally reported for June. New yuan loans jumped
to yuan 1.48tn, almost double the economists’ estimate, with yuan
891bn going to financial institutions as the central bank backed
the stock rescue efforts. The negative spread between the two
credit measures is rare, with July’s gap the widest on record.
Weakness in lending to the real economy, following reports
showing deepening factory-gate deflation and a fall in exports,
adds pressure to boost stimulus in the world’s second-biggest
economy. Meanwhile, China’s central bank has cut the yuan’s
reference rate by a record 1.9%, allowing depreciation to combat a
slump in exports. PBoC said that today’s reference rate move was a
one-time adjustment, adding that it would strengthen the market’s
role in the fixing and promote the convergence of the onshore and
offshore rates. (Bloomberg)
 Recession deepens in Russia as economy contracts 4.6% in 2Q2015
– Russia’s economy shrank the most since 2009 after a currency
crisis jolted consumer demand while a selloff in oil threatens to
drag the country into a deeper recession. The Federal Statistics
Service reported that GDP contracted by 4.6% YoY in 2Q2015 after
a 2.2% decline in 1Q2015. The nation is enduring its first recession
in six years after last year’s currency crisis and a surge in inflation
eroded consumer buying power as sanctions over Ukraine choked
access to capital markets. According to the Bank of Russia, the
economy will endure a two-year contraction if crude prices remain
at $60 through 2016, including a 1.2% slump in 2016.

 SAMA completes bond sale at low end of pricing guidance –
According to sources, the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA)
has completed pricing its bond issue at the low-end of guidance as
OPEC’s biggest producer seeks to fund its budget deficit following
a plunge in oil prices. SAMA is selling five-year debt at 1.9% or 32
basis points above US treasuries with a similar maturity, while the
seven-year debt is priced at 2.34% and ten-year debt at 2.65%.
Saudi Arabia is turning to the bond markets for the first time since
2007 as over a 50% drop in oil prices puts pressure on the nation’s
finances. The seven-year notes sold 39 basis points above similar
treasuries, while the ten-year debt was issued at 46 basis points
above treasuries. (Bloomberg)

Dubai’s medical tourism strategy, announced in 2014, aims at
attracting 500,000 medical tourists by 2020, the year when the
city would host the World Expo. (GulfBase.com)
