Are Banks serving the Common Man ?
Ladies and gentlemen of the Lions Club of Bombay, Thank you very much for giving me an opportunity to share my thoughts with you all. Only Lions would be courageous enough to listen to a talk on the subject of banking which is dry and devoid of any humour. But if you keep in mind that banks deal with your hard-earned savings, what I have to say may be of interest to you. 2.

A Synoptic View of the Twelfth Finance Commission’s Recommendations
I am indeed very happy to be in the midst of familiar faces and familiar surroundings. This is perhaps the first public occasion on which I am commenting on the recommendations of the Twelfth Finance Commission. As such, this meeting has some special significance at least to me. I congratulate the Reserve Bank of India in organizing this meeting of Finance Secretaries so that the full implications of the various recommendations of the Twelfth Finance Commission can be

It gives me great pleasure to be here on the occasion of the first programme on "Human Development and State Finances" being jointly organised by the UNDP and the RBI with the support of the Planning Commission.

Emerging Realities in Banking & Finance: Role of New Generation Managers
It is indeed a pleasure to be here in your midst today. To be amongst bright young students is not only energizing but also a learning experience - as we look at issues afresh and start by asking basic questions, which at some level are the most difficult. 2. The Reserve Bank has shared a very special relationship with the NIBM – it catalyzed its creation in 1969, provided the venue for its first campus and has been intimately associated with its functioning.

Managing Talent in Banks: A Few Thoughts
It gives me great pleasure to be in your midst today. A hundred years is, indeed, a landmark event in the history of an institution and as Corporation Bank celebrates its centenary, it joins the rank of the ‘venerables’. The establishment of the Corporation Bank with its humble beginnings in 1906 was during an eventful period in India’s economic history. It was a brave new era which saw a flurry of activity when a host of what were then termed ‘native’ banks were set

Contemporary and Future Issues in Indian Banking*
Banking scenario has changed rapidly since 1990s. The decade of 90s has witnessed a sea change in the way banking is done in India. Technology has made tremendous impact in banking. ‘Anywhere banking’ and ‘Anytime banking’ have become a reality. The financial sector now operates in a more competitive environment than before and intermediates relatively large volume of international financial flows.

Basel II Accord and its Implications
Ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure to share my thoughts with you on a subject which is currently engaging the attention of the banking community, not just in India but worldwide.

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. It is worth noting that during late the 1980s, call/notice market was virtually the only segment in Indian money 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.

Corporate Governance in Banks*
Let me at the outset commend the achievements of your bank in almost all the performance parameters. It is indeed heartening to see a well functioning and sound bank in the otherwise none too rosy co-operative sector. In fact, there could have been no better tribute to the memory of your great founder Sheth Shantaram Mangesh Kulkarni than to turn in a solid performance year after year, and also at the same time becoming a technologically savvy institution.

Corporate Governance: Towards Best Practices*
Corporate governance is increasingly demanding our attention and has moved centrestage. The Enron and WorldCom scandals in the U.S have amply demonstrated the necessity of having a system of corporate governance even in the developed world. In a liberalising and deregulating country like India, corporate governance is all the more important. In this context, it is indeed heartening to note that Bankers’ conference is devoting a full session on "corporate governance".
