Nabiullina also said the budget was a significant factor in Friday's decision. "It looks like today's interest rate hike front-loaded the tightening cycle in response to the fiscal announcements earlier this month," said Liam Peach, senior emerging markets economist at Capital Economics. The central bank's tightening cycle began this summer when inflationary pressure from a tight labour market, strong consumer demand and the budget deficit was compounded by the falling rouble. But the bank set its 2023 key rate range at 15-15.2%, suggesting rates could climb further and Nabiullina said that may be required. Sinara Investment Bank analyst Sergei Konygin said the lack of forward hawkish guidance meant it was highly likely the key rate had already reached its upper boundary.

By 1510 GMT, the rouble was 1% stronger against the dollar at 98.45 , firming back below the 100 threshold. Stocks on Monday briefly hit their highest since before Moscow launched what it calls a “special military operation” in Ukraine, before falling back. The rouble-based MOEX Russian index was 0.1% higher at 3,157.1 points. A trader at a large Russian bank told Reuters the market was confused: “Everyone is ready for the inflow of revenues from expensive oil, but it seems to be hanging somewhere, and our regulators are somehow indifferent, there is nothing to rely on.”

First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov said demand for foreign currency had increased sharply in about 15 regions. "The rouble in the cash market sold off sharply on Saturday with buy/offer spreads widening out substantially," said Goldman Sachs in a note. "Should the response to the events over the weekend be additional spending, we think this would be followed by a weaker rouble." Rouble opens at 15-month low vs dollarInvestors globally were watching for ripple effects from the aborted mutiny, with some expecting a move into safe havens such as U.S. government bonds and the dollar. The rouble-based MOEX Russian index (.IMOEX) was 1.2% lower at 2,762.5 points.

June 26 (Reuters) - The Russian rouble hit its lowest in nearly 15 months against the dollar on Monday before paring some losses, as investors responded for the first time to an aborted mutiny by heavily armed mercenaries in Russia over the weekend. By 0727 GMT, the rouble was 0.5% weaker against the dollar at 85.15 , after hitting 87.2300 in early trade, its weakest point since late March 2022. With the rouble not trading over the weekend, Russian banks had offered exchange rates well above the official rate beyond 90 to the dollar, but those were gradually easing as tensions subsided.

May 4 (Reuters) - The Russian rouble climbed to a more-than-one-month high on Thursday, gaining for a fifth straight session, as oil prices staged a partial recovery, countering the impact of reduced foreign currency supply. By 0923 GMT, the rouble was 1% stronger against the dollar at 78.44 , its strongest mark since April 3. The rouble has also benefited with a lag from high oil prices throughout April, which translates to higher export revenues for Russian exporters. Russian stocks are unlikely to see any serious buying interest before Russia's long weekend, said Sinara Investment Bank analysts. Geopolitics are partly to blame for Russian stocks' recent decline, while investors globally fear recession, hence the sustained drop in Brent, Sinara said.

At 0732 GMT the rouble was 0.7% weaker against the dollar at 75.05 , edging closer to an almost 10-month low of 75.30 hit on Friday. The Russian currency had lost 0.5% to 80.04 versus the euro and was down 0.2% against the yuan at 10.89. The rouble is usually in greater demand before month-end taxes are due on Feb. 28, when exporters typically convert their foreign currency revenue. Nevertheless, oil prices remain high and the rouble should be supported by exporters in the final third of February, Kochetkov added. Banks, have also proved resilient, with lenders now jostling for business from the state and the country's big corporate players.

Russian rouble steady as exporters convert foreign currency

The Russian rouble opened 0.4% down against the U.S. dollar, trading at 61.91 at 0730 GMT. The month-end tax period prompts Russian exporters to convert their foreign currency earnings into roubles to make payments to the Russian treasury, typically boosting the domestic currency. Any upside, however, is likely to be limited by continuing discussions in Brussels over another package of sanctions on Russia, analysts added. The dollar-denominated RTS index (.IRTS) was down 0.1% at 1,026.5 points while the rouble-based MOEX Russian index (.IMOEX) was 0.4% up at 2,020.6 points.
