Interesting, Profitable, and Challenging: Banking in India Today
Thank you for inviting me to give this address to the FICCI-IBA Annual Global Banking Conference. Perhaps the most important issue on the minds of bankers, given the results season, is the Asset Quality Review initiated in early 2015-16. It has improved recognition of NPAs and provisioning in banks enormously, and many of you have fully imbibed the spirit of the review. Some banks have taken significant steps in recognizing incipient stress early. Now focus should mov

Policy and Evidence
Good morning. It is a pleasure to welcome learned statisticians and economists from across the world to this Statistics Day celebration at the RBI. I am sure you will spend the day discussing advances in the fields of economics and statistics. These discussions will be very valuable. We certainly need to improve the quality and timeliness of our statistics, and big data can be very helpful. What I want to talk about this morning is, however, not the quality or timelin

Remarks of Dr. Raghuram Rajan, Governor - July 18, 2016 - at the IDRBT Banking Technology Excellence Awards, Hyderabad
I congratulate all the awardees of the IDRBT Banking Technology Excellence Awards. IDRBT instituted these Awards in the year 2001, which reflects the long road traversed by the banking sector in terms of technology adoption. The last few years have seen the convergence of various factors in the payment systems sphere, which makes possible a near-revolutionary improvement in financial access. Unless we take concerted steps to address some of the challenges, however, th

The Changing Paradigm for Financial Inclusion
Thank you for inviting me to address this seminar on equity, access, and inclusion. Financial inclusion is about (a) the broadening of financial services to those people and enterprises who do not have access to financial services sector ; (b) the deepening of financial services for those who have minimal financial services; and (c) greater financial literacy and consumer protection so that those who are offered financial products can make appropriate choices.

Resolving Stress in the Banking System
Thank you very much for inviting me to give this talk. Ordinarily, in a city like Bengaluru, we would talk about startups. Today, however, I want to talk about the resolution of financial distress. I will argue that the slowdown in credit growth has been largely because of stress in the public sector banking and not because of high interest rates. As such, what is required is a clean-up of the balance sheets of public sector banks, which is what is underway and needs

The fight against inflation: a measure of our institutional development
I thank the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research for inviting me to give this Foundation Day lecture. I have always seen TIFR with awe from afar. Some explanation is in order. My roommate in my first year at MIT was Dr. Renganathan Iyer, who is one of the smartest mathematicians I know – he used to help me understand my tutorials in real analysis. And he never missed an occasion to tell me how much smarter everyone else at TIFR was. Perhaps Renga was being modest, b
