Let me briefly touch upon the reasons why I believe we are living in interesting times and why this is an opportune time to reflect on further debt market development. The first such significant change is the prohibition of RBI’s subscriptio

Implications of Global Financial Imbalances for the Emerging Market Economies
I am thankful to the Banque de France for inviting me to the international symposium on Productivity, Competitiveness and Globalisation to enable me to share my thoughts on financial stability. I intend speaking on the possible implications of global imbalances for the emerging market economies (EMEs) with special focus on India.

Some Apparent Puzzles for Contemporary Monetary Policy
I. Introduction I feel very honoured to have been invited to deliver this dinner address to this distinguished audience. We have had a long day of intensive discussions centered on issues related to the Indian and Chinese economies. I thought that, given the timing of this address and the fact that we have experts present here on both the economies, it would be more advisable to talk about some general issues that are engaging economic policy and monetary policy maker

Communications in Central Banks: A Perspective
I. Introduction Communication is part of the professional hazards that central bankers face as a routine. The responses as well as measures are mostly ‘measured’. Financial markets watch our pauses, and some punctuation marks in the text of a statement have the distinct possibility of getting transmitted through the movement of a few points in the yield curve. Faced with such grave consequences that can be measured in millions of rupees or dollars, communication in ce

Recent Developments in Forex, Money and G-Sec Markets: Account and Outlook
I. Introduction It gives me immense pleasure to address this distinguished gathering of forex professionals from all over the country. Coming to these visually beautiful surroundings, it is easy to get oblivious to the fact that this state is a large contributor of ‘invisibles’ for our balance of payments. Both tourism earnings and private remittances have had a significant impact on Kerala’s economy and the state has benefited substantially as a result of liberalisat

Issues in Strengthening Commercial Paper Market
I am happy to be with you today in this seminar on "Issues in Strengthening Commercial Paper Market". I am sure the seminar will bring out issues, which would be useful in further strengthening the CP market.

Today, we have a variety of new instruments e.g., CD, CP, Treasury bills, repo and CBLO catering to the varied needs of market participants. W

Investing in India: Challenges and Opportunities*
I am extremely happy to be here at the Pravasi Bharatiya Divas 2005. Whether in the spirit of the traditional Indian culture of Vasudaiva Kutumbakam, or in the context of a globalised world, I would not like to treat the Pravasi Bharatiyas as distant, but close to both our hearts and the economy. We are, of course, very proud of the achievements of the Indians settled abroad. It is, therefore, only befitting that the great Indian family should meet once a year. The to

Role of Central Bankers in Emerging Economy like India
Dr. Kanu Doshiwas kind enough to leave the choice of topic for today’s lecture, to be decided by me. I chose this topic as I consider it to be one which would perhaps be of interest to bright and young students and one of contemporary relevance.

Challenges to Monetary Policy in A Global Context
Rakesh Mohan* I. Introduction Recent global developments have transformed the environment in which monetary policy operates, throwing up opportunities as well as challenges.
