OPEC+ Likely To Stand By Plans To Only "Gradually" Increase Production, Despite Crude Volatility OPEC+ is likely to stand by its plan to only "gradually" increase oil production despite the mounting volatility in the commodity as a result of Russia''s invasion of Ukraine. Several delegates said that when OPEC+ meets this week, it will "probably" not wind up modifying its plans of adding 400,000 barrels per day to the market, Bloomberg reported . Seemingly as part of their justification for holding steady, delegates said that last week''s spike in prices "was triggered mostly by geopolitics and did not reflect an imbalance between supply and demand".

However, as Bloomberg notes, Saudi Energy Minister Abdulaziz bin Salman does have a history of "surprising markets". OPEC+ has been under pressure from importers of late to help reduce the cost at the pump. But nations like Saudi Arabia have so far ignored the pressure, stating they are committed to the OPEC+ agreement and what the alliance determines.

Ukraine: Indian Inc under ratings scanner

05:29pm, Sunday, 27'th Feb 2022 Economic Times India
The creditworthiness of Indian companies is under scanner, as local ratings firms are assessing the fallout of the Ukraine-Russia conflict and the resultant global economic sanctions on Moscow.If the geopolitical tension escalates and sustains further, companies could well face rating or outlook revisions, said three ratings companies ET spoke with.ICRA, CARE and India Ratings are now busy analysing sector-wise cause and effect.
