Factors Influencing the Exchange Rate
Several factors may have contributed to the observed fluctuations in the INR/KRW exchange rate:
Economic Performance: Differences in economic growth rates, inflation, and trade balances between India and South Korea can impact currency valuations. For instance, if South Korea's economy outperforms India's, the KRW may strengthen against the INR.
Monetary Policies: Divergent monetary policies, such as interest rate adjustments by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the Bank of Korea, can influence investor sentiment and capital flows, affecting the exchange rate.
Global Market Dynamics: External factors, including changes in global trade patterns, commodity prices, and geopolitical events, can also play a role in currency fluctuations.
Implications
The depreciation of the INR against the KRW has several implications:
Trade: Indian exporters to South Korea may find their goods more competitively priced, potentially boosting exports. Conversely, imports from South Korea could become more expensive for Indian consumers and businesses.
Investment: Currency fluctuations can impact foreign direct investment decisions, as investors consider exchange rate risks when allocating capital.
Tourism: For travelers, a weaker INR means higher costs when visiting South Korea, which could influence travel decisions.
Conclusion
The INR/KRW exchange rate has shown a downward trend in the first half of 2025, with the Indian Rupee depreciating against the South Korean Won. This movement reflects a combination of domestic economic factors, monetary policies, and global market conditions. Stakeholders should monitor these developments closely, as continued fluctuations could have significant economic implications for trade, investment, and tourism between India and South Korea.
