Monetary and Financial Policy Responses to Global Imbalances
DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC ANALYSIS AND POLICY I would like to compliment Bank Indonesia for arranging this conference on the theme "Monetary and Financial Policy Responses to Global Imbalances" at the Annual International Seminar 2006. This is an issue that has been among the top concerns of central bankers in the last few years: so the opportunity to have this discussion at this opportune time is very welcome for all of us.

Economic Reforms in India: Where are We and Where do We Go?
We have now had a decade and a half of economic reforms. It is perhaps appropriate at this point to stand back and take stock of what we have done as we venture further. Today I shall, therefore, make an effort to (a) review what has been done; (b) evaluate where we are; and (c) suggest where we need to go. Let me give you the backdrop as to what motivated me to choose this topic. I recently came across, The Tipping Point: How Little Things Make a Big Difference, by M

Inclusive Growth : Role of Financial Education
I thank the Indian Banks Association and hosts Andhra Bank for inviting me for this Conference. I am aware you have had illustrious speakers and expert sessions on various issues reverberating in policy conundrums of 'financial inclusion' and financially inclusive growth. Why I term these as conundrums is for the reason that on the one hand, everyone accepts that a broad based access to formal financial services is a sine qua non for the aspiration of growth in GDP an

State of the Indian Economy
It is my great pleasure to be here at the 2nd Annual Indian Securities Infrastructure & Operations Forum 2006. The recent growth momentum of the Indian economy is leading to renewed interest in India’s growth prospects. As the mid-year review of the annual policy is just over I thought instead of giving just a run-down of the current state of the Indian economy let me put the current trends into a broader perspective - both with respect to the longer term trend an

Financial Inclusion for Sustainable Development : Role of IT and Intermediaries
My topic today is financial inclusion for sustainable development and how IT and community based organisations including NGOs can be leveraged for expanding banking outreach so as to meet the needs of the underserved population. Financial inclusion has become a buzzword internationally – even in developed financial markets there are concerns about those excluded from the banking system especially migrant workers.

Risks Associated with Macroeconomic Adjustments: Global Perspective
I. Growth Trends I am happy to observe the continued healthy expansion of world GDP and that the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is projecting only a marginal slowdown from 5.1 per cent in 2006 to 4.9 per cent in 2007. It is important to note, however, that some other forecasters are not so sanguine. The global economy has maintained its pace of growth in the first half of 2006.

Changing Paradigms in Risk Management
The world of finance has always had an intuitive understanding of risk. The risks that emerge from the increased variety and complexities of banking business, as well as from the various new drivers of growth has pushed the contours of risk management in banks much beyond what would probably have existed in the more traditional forms of banking activity of accepting deposits and lending in relatively stable environments.

Foreign Exchange Reserves: New Realities and Options
