加拿大維持當前利率,美元兌加元出現激烈震盪
關鍵字:加拿大維持當前利率
在4月15日晚,加拿大央行宣佈維持當前0.25%的隔夜貸款利率不變,並暫時增加購債的份額,但指出當前恢復的途徑有很多,在資料公佈後,美元兌家園出現激烈的震盪。
加拿大央行決議稱,儘管存在高度的不確定性,但估計顯示,近期經濟下滑看來將是有記錄以來最嚴重的,上半年全球經濟大幅收縮在所難免。
加拿大央行決議稱,全球復蘇可能是漸進的,加拿大復蘇的時機和進展存在相當大的不確定性,恢復的途徑有很多。經濟衰退的不確定性和創傷效應可能會在很大程度上延長加拿大的復蘇。
過去一個月,該央行已經先後三次緊急降息,累計降幅達到150個基點,並開啟量化寬鬆計畫,大規模購買政府債券,藉以因應新型冠狀病毒帶來的經濟影響。行長波洛茲此前稱,0.25%為“實質下限”。
加拿大3月份工作崗位創紀錄減少逾101萬個,失業率飆升至7.8%,因冠狀病毒疫情導致非必要商業活動癱瘓。分析師則警告稱,最壞的情況還沒有到來。加拿大經濟主要仰賴出口石油等大宗商品,因此加拿大可能會受到全球經濟萎縮的嚴重衝擊。
國際貨幣基金組織預測,預計2020年全球經濟將萎縮3.0%,這將是1930年代大蕭條以來最嚴重的經濟滑坡。加拿大2020年經濟將下滑6.2%。
加拿大央行決議認為,隨著全球經濟活動和石油消費正常化,油價應會上漲,但鑒於庫存仍將在一段時間內保持高位,預計復蘇將是漸進的。如果運輸需求持續低於疫情危機前的水準,油價可能會保持低位。
加拿大兩家主要銀行首席執行官上周表示,與2008年金融危機相比,冠狀病毒大流行對加拿大經濟的影響將更廣泛,且更具挑戰性,復蘇時間可能比預期的長。
