Market participants reported that money markets continue to function smoothly with ample liquidity, noting that recent volatility in bond markets has not caused material stress. Members observed that while cross-currency funding remains orderly, there is ongoing monitoring of competition for deposits which could influence future wholesale funding costs.
The committee also assessed plans to extend RTGS and CHAPS settlement hours to improve cross-border payments. Participants emphasized the need for careful management regarding liquidity facilities and operational resilience when navigating potential transactions outside of standard business hours.
