“Over the past 1 year, yield levels have risen on account of rate hikes done, excess liquidity withdrawn, and the economy coming out of Covid shock. Currently within G secs, 3-4 yrs segment may be looked up to. The spread between 1 yr and 3 / 3.5 yrs is more than 60 bps making that part of the yield curve steep, while a flatter yield curve after that. The spread of 3.5 years security over 10 years is around 15 bps. Going into the RBI policy on 30 Sept., markets may price in another large rate hike by RBI, in line with policy rate actions of global Central Banks,” said Amit Somani, senior fund manager-fixed income at Tata Asset Management.
