The post India: Tactical duration opportunity on rates – DBS appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
DBS Group Research economist Sherilyn Chew notes that renewed geopolitical risk has lifted yields across Asia, but sees Indian G-Secs as offering a tactical opportunity. She argues the India sell-off is mainly macro repricing, with domestic fundamentals and structural demand intact. Foreign participation remains supportive, and DBS views the 10-year sector as attractive for adding duration once risk sentiment stabilises. Indian G-Secs repricing seen as transient “Renewed geopolitical risk has pushed yields higher across the region, but we would differentiate between markets where the repricing presents a more compelling entry and those where it reinforces existing concerns.” “For India, the sell-off looks largely driven by a broad-based macro repricing rather than any deterioration in domestic fundamentals.” “With supportive structural demand and ongoing foreign participation still support

The post India Maintains Tough Crypto Position as RBI Renews Warning Against Digital Assets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The RBI of India once again reiterated its recommendation for keeping cryptocurrencies and privately held stablecoins out of the regulated financial system. Indian revenue officials have cautioned that offshore exchanges, private wallets, and P2P transactions involving crypto remain difficult to report and enforce. India is currently evaluating its crypto policy in the long run. While the regulatory bodies adopt a cautious stance towards digital assets. According to recent internal government papers, the RBI has reiterated its recommendation regarding restrictions on cryptocurrencies and stablecoins. Reuters reported any cryptocurrencies.

The Reserve Bank of India hasn’t softened its position. If anything, internal government documents show the central bank is hardening its view. According to a Reuters report summarized by the original report, the RBI explicitly stated that India’s cryptocurrency policy may need to “lean toward prohibition.” The recommendation goes further: bar banks and financial institutions from holding, trading, or gaining any exposure to crypto assets and privately issued stablecoins. The logic is familiar. The central bank framed the restrictions as essential to limit risk spillover from volatile digital assets into the broader financial system. While the language isn’t new—the RBI attempted a similar banking ban in 2018 only to be overruled by the Supreme Court in 2020—the latest paperwork suggests a policy apparatus that still sees prohibition
The post China: Growth support constrained – TD Securities appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
TD Securities’ Senior Asia Economist Alex Loo argues that China’s fiscal stance is turning austere as local governments prioritize debt clean-up over growth. The report expects only limited fiscal support in H2 2026 unless GDP drops towards 4.0–4.2%, with policy likely focused on faster infrastructure execution, modest PBoC easing and continued Ministry of Finance conservatism. Stimulus hopes face fiscal constraints “We examine China’s fiscal balance and conclude that local officials are focusing on debt clean-up instead of boosting economic growth. Fiscal policy is unlikely to deliver major H2 support unless GDP growth in 2026 slips towards 4.0-4.2% (vs our forecast of 4.6%).” “Policy support is likely to come through faster infrastructure execution, not major new stimulus. A weak Q2 GDP print next week in the low-4% range will spark speculation of new stimulus from authorities.” “The likel
