Indian Rupee Rises Offshore After Central Bank Measures

Indian Rupee Rises Offshore After Central Bank Measures

India’s rupee rose in offshore trading after the Reserve Bank of India took steps to support it.

The central bank’s measures were described as among its strongest efforts to bolster the currency since the 2013 taper tantrum.

That phrase refers to a period in 2013 when markets reacted to signals that the US Federal Reserve could reduce its bond-buying.

The measures were aimed at strengthening the rupee.

The details of the steps were not specified.

No further action or outlook was given.
