  7. II. Growth, Monetary Policy and Inflation Dynamics

  8. Long Term Trends in Inflation and GDP Growth Note: the trends are for 10-year moving averages.

  9. After a loose monetary policy stance from FY02-FY04… SBP had to enter into monetary tightening phase Loose Monetary Stance Tight Monetary Stance

  10. Monetary stimulus played a significant role in growth revival…

  11. Growth picked-up – however, with money supply growth outpacing nominal GDP growth CPI rose from 3.5% in FY02 to 9.3% in FY05

  12. Food prices are still a major source of volatility and recent price hike; tight monetary policy helped in arresting demand driven inflation as reflected in core inflation

  13. Several Monetary Policy measures have been taken to contain inflation since FY05 • Changes in policy rate (i.e. SBP 3-day REPO rate): • from 7.5% to 9.0% in April 2005; • from 9.0% to 9.5% in July 2006; • from 9.5% to 10.0% in July 2007. • Changes in CRR and SLR • Current CRR are: 7% for demand & time liabilities of less than one year; • Earlier CRR were 3% for time liabilities above 6 month maturity and 7% for demand and less than 6 months time liabilities; • Aggressive liquidity management through OMOs

  14. Monetary tightening partly diluted due to SBP re-financing schemes and high government borrowings; both issues addressed in FY08…

  15. Rising international food and oil prices remain key risk for FY08… While monetary policy is ready to contain demand pull inflationary pressures, cost push factors may pose threat to price stability in FY08. Among others, the key problems are: Rising global commodity prices, in particular steep uptrend in international oil prices. Domestic agriculture crops outcome (particularly wheat, sugarcane & gram) during FY07 was good. However poor demand-supply management has led to crisis situation in the country. Rising per capita incomes, but shortages emerged because of fluctuations in productive sectors or problems with distribution of commodities.

  16. Measures to further arrest inflationary trends… • Besides increase in SBP policy rate, SBP recommended the government to retire SBP debt in FY08 (by Rs 62.7 billion) to ease reserve money growth • Introduced policy to reduce commercial banks’ reliance on refinance facilities (envisaged a 30 percent reduction in outstanding refinance at end June 2007 during FY08 without affecting the overall availability of credit to the exporters). • Stepping forward towards a more market based credit allocation mechanism the age old credit planning exercise has been abandoned completely. • SBP has been encouraging long term paper issuance with regular frequency to transfer government reliance from SBP to private financing sources

  17. Growing macroeconomic Imbalances are now posing renewed challenges • July-November data reveals that both fiscal and external account deficit will be higher than original projections. • Borrowing from central bank to finance budget is significant and such borrowing is likely to augment inflationary pressures since output will be impacted by the recent disruptions. • The central bank will have to take appropriate measures to further contain demand pressures augmented by fiscal and external deficits. • Extent of monetary tightening would depend on fiscal restraints.
