Securitisation Markets in India – A Post-Crisis Perspective
1. It is my pleasure to be delivering the inaugural address at this Securitisation Summit. I am thankful to the NSIM, particularly Mr. Sethu whose persistent efforts brought me here today. The development of a robust securitisation market in India, along with a broader corporate bond market, though universally acknowledged as a desired objective is proving a challenge in reality.

Financial Crisis - Some Old Questions and Maybe Some New Answers
It would be a privilege for anyone to deliver this lecture to honour the memory of Sir Chintaman D. Deshmukh. The privilege is particularly special for a serving Governor of the Reserve Bank of India. Everyday, as I go to work, I bask in the glory of serving a public institution that is held in such high esteem. 2. I am deeply conscious that this high esteem owes a lot to the competence and professionalism of the Reserve Bank’s staff, its institutional values and cult

Over-the-counter derivative markets in India issues and perspectives - Article by Smt Shyamala Gopinath, Deputy Governor, RBI, Published in July 2010 Issue of Financial Stability Review, Banque de France.
The present article tries to put in perspective the boundary conditions, imposed by the macroeconomic constraints, which have guided the evolution of over-the-counter (OTC) markets in India and underlines the point that the process of transiting from a predominantly OTC based model to an exchange-traded model needs to follow a calibrated path. Through this transition period, the overall regulatory approach towards OTC derivative markets is as important as addressing t

Central Banks must distill Lessons from the Global Crisis and make Concrete Reforms
Central banks have been at the heart of the global financial crisis. They have been blamed for policies and actions that got the world into the crisis; they have been praised for leading the world out of it. Both are fair assessments. Central banks have been a part of the problem and a part of the solution. As the crisis unwinds and recovery takes hold, central banks face a number of issues, of which I will address five.

Harnessing Technology to Bank the Unbanked
It is always a delight to be here in this wonderful city of Hyderabad. The location of IDRBT in Hyderabad is not an accident; it is a reflection of the growing reputation of Hyderabad as a premiere location for IT industry.

Perspectives on Lending Rates in India
Shri Dua, Shri Sen and friends. I thank the Bankers’ Club, Kolkata and Shri J.P. Dua, Chairman, Allahabad Bank for providing me the opportunity to speak to you this evening.

Financial Regulation and Financial Inclusion – Working Together or at Cross-purposes
The case for financial inclusion is not based on the principle of equity alone – access to affordable banking services is required for inclusive growth with stability. Achieving financial inclusion in a country like India with a large and diverse population with significant segments in rural and unorganised sectors requires a high level of penetration by the formal financial system. Even in areas that are well covered by banks, there are sections of society excluded f

Volatility in Capital Flows: Some Perspectives
As the crisis is ebbing, capital inflows into emerging market economies (EMEs) have resumed - a consequence of a global system awash with liquidity, the assurance of low interest rates ruling in advanced economies over ‘an extended period’ and the prospects of robust growth in EMEs. According to the IMF, net private financial flows to emerging and developing economies increased from US$ 254 billion in 2006 to US$ 689 billion in 2007 and then declined, at the height of

India and the Global Financial Crisis Transcending from Recovery to Growth
India clocked average growth of 9 per cent per annum in the five years to 2007/08. That growth momentum was interrupted by the financial crisis which impacted India too, more than we had originally thought but less than it did most other countries. Despite falling below 6 per cent for one quarter, the growth for the full year 2008/09 was a resilient 6.7 per cent. Current estimates are that the economy had grown between 7.2 and 7.5 per cent for the just ended fiscal ye
