India pushes ‘shock and awe’ currency plan to save BRICS

“India is pushing for joint ‘shock-and-awe’ intervention by key developing states to halt capital flight and shore up currencies, in a move that risks backfiring and triggering a vicious spiral. ‘It is going to happen in a matter of days rather than weeks, Brazil and India can start the move,’ said Dipak Dasgupta, a top Indian official.  Mr Dasgputa told Reuters that China, Brazil, India, Turkey, Russia and South Africa have all been squeezed as the US Federal Reserve prepares to tighten monetary policy. Joint action would give emerging markets greater firepower, allowing them to deploy their combined $8.7 trillion (£5.6 trillion) of reserves and crush ‘speculators’, rather than being picked off one by one.”
