Where capitalism and conservation meet
Spurn point would be a desolate place to die. Stretching five precarious kilometres into the North Sea, the constantly shifting finger of East Yorkshire coast is little more than a narrow sand bank held together by sea grass, the only obvious signs of human habitation a long-abandoned lifeboat station and lighthouse, both now given over to the winds and the rain. It is a permanent home solely to wading birds and the bugs they feast on, perhaps to the odd vole.

The IMF should revise its opinion on the Indian rupee’s managed float
RBI) had intervened “excessively" in the foreign exchange market to influence the rupee’s value. The Fund argued that from December 2022 to October 2023, our currency’s movement was “too restricted" (it traded between ₹80.88 and ₹83.42 to the US dollar). This narrow trading range, it says, was not a reflection of any improvement in our external position, as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) reportedly said in its rebuttal, but the result of excessive RBI intervention “beyond what was required to manage market conditions." As a result, pursuant to its Article IV review, the Fund has reclassified India’s exchange-rate regime from “floating" to a “stabilized arrangement" for that period.

Long-term inflation outlook at odds with near-term risks: RBI Bulletin
MUMBAI : The objective of aligning India’s inflation with the 4% target on a sustainable basis is far from assured, according to an article in the Reserve Bank of India (RBI)’s December bulletin. It also cautioned against, what it called a case of hypermetropia or far-sightedness, among some of its stakeholders. In the article titled State of the Economy, it said that softer retail inflation figures for September and October 2023, along with a prolonged pause in the monetary policy stance, resulted in an irrational long-sightedness.
