CBSL took timely and appropriate measures to manage rupee liquidity in the market.8 per cent. the target for the growth in reserve money was revised downward from 5 per cent to 2. Financial sector institutions were confronted with the stresses caused by the spill-over effects of the global financial crisis and the consequent decline in demand in the domestic economy which had an adverse impact on their business operations. although lending rates of commercial banks declined at a slower pace. The reduction in the SRR. However. there was an outflow of foreign investments in government securities creating a liquidity shortage in money markets. which was within the target set in the revised Monetary Programme for 2009. although this situation turned around with the money market becoming liquid and the equity market rebounding after the end of the conflict in May 2009. The targets for monetary aggregates. Accordingly.6 per cent. The proceeds of these inflows were purchased by CBSL to stabilise the foreign exchange market and to build official reserves. was reduced gradually and harmonised with the Reverse Repo rate in May 2009. while also engaging in reverse repo transactions to enhance rupee liquidity. while that of broad money was lowered from 14 per cent to 13 per cent. CBSL purchased Treasury bills from the primary market. Central Bank Securities were issued to absorb liquidity on overnight basis and term basis from October 2009. The resulting increase in rupee liquidity in the market was absorbed through the Central Bank’s open market operations (OMO). the Penal interest rate applicable on reverse repo transactions when participating institutions exceeded the maximum number of times they could access the reverse repo window. posing a challenge to managing the surplus. CBSL lowered the Statutory Reserve Ratio (SRR) by a further 75 basis points to 7 per cent in February 2009. The loss of investor confidence and liquidity constraints faced by several entities connected to banks and finance companies in the Ceylinco Group had an adverse impact on the finance and leasing sectors. thus leading to a significant reduction in the Central Bank’s holdings of government securities necessitating the use of alternative instruments to conduct OMO. were removed during the first half of the year.

CBSL also removed the restriction on access to reverse repo standing facility by market participants in 2009. which moderated during the first half of the year. which was marginally above the target set in the revised Monetary Programme for 2009. due to the increase in credit to the government from CBSL and the dissipation of the impact of the changes in SRR in the last quarter of 2008. The average weighted call money rate (AWCMR) was brought within the policy interest rate corridor. Although the growth in reserve money contracted during the first three quarters of 2009 largely due to the lowering of SRR in the last quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009.Monetary Sector Developments CBSL relaxed its monetary policy stance in 2009 to support domestic economic activity. following the reduction in the SRR imposed on all rupee deposits of commercial banks by 225 basis points in the last quarter of 2008 releasing about Rs. In addition. Accordingly. the financial sector remained resilient and financial system stability was maintained despite challenging market conditions. As the global financial turmoil deepened and the global economy contracted. restrictions on access to Central Bank’s repo and the reverse repo facilities were also removed. CBSL commenced foreign exchange swap transactions as an additional instrument for absorbing liquidity from November 2009. there has been a turnaround in liquidity. the rapid decline in inflation and the slowdown in the domestic economy were the main factors that warranted this downward revision.7 per cent.

The continued capital outflows during the first quarter of the year necessitated CBSL to supply foreign currency to the market resulting in a drain in rupee liquidity from the market.50 per cent and the Reverse Repo rate was reduced by 225 basis points to 9. since June 2009. Renewed investor confidence with the end to the conflict and the securing of the SBA facility from IMF substantially increased foreign investments in government securities from May 2009 onwards. increased by 8. supported by appropriate policies. while maintaining price stability remains a key policy challenge.
