Impact of COVID-19 on Indian Economy: 28th November 2020Sam Ghosh
Indian economy entered a technical recession with two consecutive quarters of GDP contraction in Q2 of FY 2020-21. Results released by the National Statistical Office shows that the GDP of India during the H1 of FY 2020-21 contracted by 15.7% at Constant (2011-12) Prices and 13.3% at Current Prices. While quarterly GDP in Q2 FY 2020-21 in rupee terms improved from Q1 FY 2020-21 by 23% at Constant Prices and 24% at Current Prices, it is still 7.5% and 4% lower than Q2 of FY 2019-20 at Constant and Current Prices respectively. The contraction was caused by a drastic drop in private consumption (which contributes around 60% of Indian GDP) and a drop in gross fixed capital formation.
The policy repo rate has been reduced by 115 basis points from the beginning of 2020 to record low levels. Apart from that, RBI is injecting liquidity through various Open Market Operations and Long Term Repo Operations. Currency with the public increased by ~20% from the end of 2019 to the end of October 2020. We can safely say that the Indian economy is flushed with liquidity.
Consumer inflation remains above the policy range of 4%+2%, and with a GDP contraction, the Indian economy is dealing with stagflation.
On the fiscal front, total monthly receipts remained lower than the same period last year for the whole Q1 and Q2 (April - September) FY 2020-21. October receipts show signs of improvement. Fiscal expenditure on the other hand was maintained at the same levels of FY 2019-20 in FY 2020-21 till October. The fiscal deficit stood at 119.7% of the Budget Estimates as of October 2020 due to lower receipts.
Credit growth remains sluggish especially due to lower credit uptake by the industry. Credit demand for smaller companies was low from the beginning of fiscal 2020-21 which improved after August. Credit uptake by the large corporates dropped after July 2020.
Household savings increased dramatically from Rs.5.32 lakh crores in Q4 of FY 2019-20 to Rs. 8.16 lakh crores in Q1 of FY 2020-21 - a more than 50% increase. Most of the increase in household savings resulted from an aversion to liabilities. It signifies that the households turned conservative about their finances to deal with impending financial distress.
The unemployment rate shot-up in April and May 2020 above 20% and moderated to below 10% levels after June 2020. Employees' Provident Fund records show healthy job creation in September 2020.......

An overview of india japan trade relation today and tomorrowmarketxceldata
Economic relations between India and Japan have vast potential for growth, given the obvious complementarities that exist between the two Asian economies. Japan's interest in India is increasing due to a variety of reasons including India's big and growing market and its resources, especially the human resources. The signing of the historic India-Japan Comprehensive Economic PartnershipAgreement (CEPA) and its implementation from August 2011 has accelerated economic and commercial relations between the two countries.

Results released by the National Statistical Office shows that the GDP of India contracted by 23.9% at Constant (2011-12) Prices and 22.6% at current prices during the Q1 of FY 2020-21.
Gross Fixed Capital Formation decreased by ~50% from March to June 2020. This is really alarming.
While the figures are alarming, let us keep perspective. The contraction in the economy was not spontaneous but due to a forced shut down of the economy.
While the economic pain is far from over, improvements in IIP and manufacturing PMI figures give us some optimism. Q1 Industrial Outlook Survey shows mixed expectations for Q2 but a positive overall business sentiment
We need to keep in mind that while some sectors may pick up growth spontaneously after the lockdowns are completely lifted, other sectors may need considerable policy hand-holding.
Medium and small size companies need special attention as they may struggle to get the policy benefits as reflected by drastically different credit uptake by companies of different sizes.
We can be cautiously optimistic that the economy improves rapidly in the coming quarters but the fear of a fresh wave of infection still looms.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
Empowering the Unbanked: The Vital Role of NBFCs in Promoting Financial Inclu...Vighnesh Shashtri
In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.

Asian Development Outlook 2019 by ADB : Sri Lanka
Economic prospects – Supply Side
Agriculture is expected to continue to grow at about the same
rate, i.e. 4.8%, in the next 2 years, assuming normal weather.
Tea and marine fishing, both large contributors to
agriculture, are expected to turn around in 2019 from the
dip experienced in 2018
Industry is expected to pick up gradually over the 2-year period,
reversing the slowdown in 2018
Construction is expected to reverse the contraction last year
with marginal growth this year thanks to a base effect and also a
higher budget for public investment.
Services are expected to continue moderate growth at 4.6% in 2019, picking up marginally to 4.8% in 2020 with
support from trade and financial services, as well as from accommodation and food and beverage services

Asian Development Outlook 2019 by ADB : Sri Lanka
(Cont)
Private expenditure and growth will be supported by budget proposals such as increasing public sector salaries
and allowances and addressing the pension anomalies.
The government continues to consolidate its finances, but the primary surplus target of 1.5% in 2019 is
downgraded than the original target of 2.0%.
Uncertainties surrounding the upcoming election are expected to affect private investor sentiment.
Economic prospects – Demand Side
Economic prospects – External Sector
Garment exports are expected to grow only moderately as export markets expand more slowly over the next 2
years.
Downside risks to garments arise from a scenario of a no-deal Brexit and tariff escalation between Sri Lanka and
UK.
The introduction of an excise duty and a luxury tax on motor vehicles will keep vehicle imports in check.

Asian Development Outlook 2019 by ADB : Sri Lanka
(Cont)
After shrinking in 2018, remittances are expected to remain more or less the same over the next 2 years under a
structural decline in outmigration and lower oil prices impacting economic activity in key host countries
The current account deficit is expected to shrink to 2.5% in 2019, widening marginally to 2.6% in 2020.
Downside risks to the forecast emanate from the economic fallout due to Easter
Sunday terror strikes, political developments connected to upcoming elections and
the ensuing policy direction, as well as weather related uncertainties.
International risks would be a deeper slowdown in the advanced economies, fuel
prices or import volume above expectations, or fallout from Brexit that is difficult
to fully assess at this point.

Brexit and its implications for Sri Lanka’s Exports
Considering that Sri Lanka currently benefits from a positive and growing
balance in its merchandise trade with the UK, it is important for Sri Lanka to
be able to enjoy the existing GSP+ concessions for some time, until it
graduates from the scheme, a few years after it reaches the threshold of the
World Bank ranking of Upper-Middle Income category.
UK remains confident of reaching a deal with EU in relation to Brexit that can
gain the support of the UK legislature, despite several failed attempts in the
UK Parliament. Political analysts have noted that it’s most likely that UK will
reach a deal to enter into Custom Union with EU similar to that of EU -Turkey
Customs Union
Despite services exports not
benefiting through GSP+ concessions,
the trade potential for the services
sector is promising. Efforts need to be
made to enhance trade between UK
and Sri Lanka by promoting more
services exports to this market. In this
regard, Sri Lanka looks forward to
promoting ICT/BPM and Wellness
Tourism in the UK and enlist the
support of the Sri Lankan diaspora in
the UK in such promotions.
(Source: Research Intelligence Unit (RIU) -
Trade Surveillance report in association with the
Sri Lankan High Commission in London)
If UK enters into Custom Union with EU, the beneficiary nations of the EU
GSP scheme would not have to enter into separate bilateral agreements with
UK to retain the tariff concessions granted to over 7,100 products under the
programme to the UK market.

Sri Lanka and UK have already engaged
in several preliminary level discussions
through diplomatic channels on a
potential bilateral preferential trade
agreement, and the UK government has
informed Sri Lankan counterparts that
UK legislature’s approval is required for
60 sensitive products in the EU GSP
scheme in order to grant the same tariff
lines to Sri Lanka in the post-Brexit
period in case of a no-deal Brexit. In
addition, Sri Lanka has also been
requested to submit a detailed brief with
facts and figures outlining its concerns to
the UK government.

21/4 terror strikes in Sri Lanka: expected to dampen
tourism earnings - raise borrowing risks: Fitch
Sri Lanka will face heightened risks to its growth outlook and funding needs, and lower
tourism earnings after the April 21 terror attacks, Fitch Ratings has said.
The rating agency said in its Asia-Pacific sovereign credit overview for the second quarter of
2019 that outlooks for sovereigns remain stable, with global financial conditions easing, while
global growth prospects have deteriorated.
The terror attacks in Sri Lanka will dampen tourism receipts, which had been rising steadily in
recent years to reach about 5% of GDP in 2018, according to Fitch Ratings.
Sri Lanka’s recent USD 2.4Bn bond issuance in March, 2019 helped ease near-term fiscal and
external financing constraints, Fitch Ratings said. However, it has noted that conditions
remain challenging in the wake of the terror attacks.

Sri Lanka’s Hambantota Port positioned as region’s
bunkering hub
The Hambantota International Port (HIP) recently awarded a tender to Sinopec Fuel Oil Sales Co Ltd for
oil trading works and the operation and maintenance of their oil tank terminal along with associated
facilities.
Bunkering being an important part of the marine services portfolio offered by HIP, the oil tank terminal
in partnership with Sinopec Fuel Oil Sales Co Ltd will provide high grades of marine fuels compliant
with the IMO 2020 Low Sulphur Rule as well as other ancillary facilities to marine liners calling and
passing through Hambantota.
“The partnership with Sinopec, which is one of the largest providers of bunkers worldwide, underlines
our goal of becoming a bunkering hub for the entire region. Plans are already in the pipeline to expand
our tank capacity in the near future,” said Ray Ren, CEO of Hambantota International Port Group
(HIPG), adding that HIP intends taking maximum advantage of its location, just 10 nautical miles from
the main sea route connecting east and west, on which ply more than 31,000 vessels each year.

Global economy cooling - coordinated stimulus may be
needed: IMF
The global economy is slowing more than expected
and a sharp downturn could require world leaders to
coordinate stimulus measures, the International
Monetary Fund said as it cut its forecast for world
economic growth this year.
They pointed to the US-China trade war and a
potentially disorderly British exit from the European
Union as key risks and warned that chances of
further cuts to the outlook were high.
Some major economies, including China and
Germany, might need to take short-term actions, the
IMF said.
The IMF’s new forecast assumes an orderly “Brexit,” but the Fund said a chaotic process could shave
more than 0.2 percentage points from global growth in 2019. It said the Bank of England should be
“cautious” on its interest rate policy, an apparent tip to wait before hiking borrowing costs.

Japan exports hit by weak China demand, raising risk of
economic contraction
Japan’s exports fell for a fourth straight month in March as China-bound
shipments slumped again, reinforcing growing anxiety that weak external
demand may have knocked the economy into contraction in the first
quarter.
Ministry of Finance data out on Wednesday showed exports fell 2.4% in
March from a year earlier.
The data reinforces worries that weak external demand may hurt
company profits and in turn curb business expenditures, workers’ wages
and consumer spending in a broad hit to growth.
“Slump in exports have caused capital expenditure to drop sharply and
private consumption to slow,” said Ryutaro Kono, chief economist at BNP
Paribas Securities.
The economy grew at an annualised rate of 1.9% in the fourth quarter driven by business and consumer spending.
Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda last week stuck to his optimism that Japan’s export-dependent economy
will soon climb out of its doldrums as global growth recovers.

USA
On 22 March the yield on ten-year treasury bonds fell beneath that on the three-month
variety in America. The last time that happened was in 2007, one of the “inversions” in bond-
market yields that preceded each of the past seven American recessions.
America’s inverted yield curve* suggests that the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate rise in
December, 2018, its ninth in three years, will be its last for now. But, that does not mean
recession is imminent.
Although risks to growth have risen, America is in a position of relative strength.
Unemployment is low; consumers are flush with cash; and underlying inflation is close to
the Fed’s 2% target.
[*An inverted yield curve is an interest rate environment in which long-term debt instruments have a lower yield than short-term debt instruments of the same credit quality].

Europe
The primary cause for Europe’s slowdown – and particularly Germany’s – is falling
global trade, notably China’s slackening demand for goods. Europe relies on Asian
markets far more than America does and China slowed in late 2018.
Although America may have finished raising rates for now, the euro zone is yet to
begin that process. Growth in 2019 could be a little over 1%. Wage growth is
subdued, inflation is below target and Italy is in recession.

US to end all waivers to buy Iran oil imports: crude
price jumps
The US recently said it will eliminate in May all
waivers granted to eight economies allowing
them to buy Iranian oil without facing US
sanctions, as it ratcheted up pressure to choke
off all oil revenues of the Islamic Republic.
The decision, taken by President Donald Trump,
has sent oil prices to their highest levels in 2019,
even though the White House said the US was
working with top OPEC exporter Saudi Arabia and
the United Arab Emirates to ensure the oil
market is “adequately supplied”.
The US re-imposed sanctions in November, 2018 on exports of Iranian oil after President Trump
unilaterally pulled out of a 2015 nuclear accord between Iran and six world powers last May.
