Sustainability of Economic Growth and Controlling Inflation: The Way Forward
It is my pleasure to speak at FICCI’s National Executive Committee Meeting this year. As many observers have been highlighting, after a relatively long phase of benign, growth-friendly macroeconomic conditions, things have begun to look somewhat hostile on the macroeconomic front. The most significant manifestation of this is the acceleration of inflation, a trend that was visible even before the impact of the financial crisis was felt in late 2008, but which very qui

Lessons for Monetary Policy from the Global Financial Crisis : An Emerging Market Perspective
The global financial crisis has challenged the conventional views on the role of monetary policy. Post-crisis, the weight of arguments tilts towards acceptance of financial stability as an objective of central bank or monetary policy. However, the key challenge is to evolve a consistent framework for implementation. While interest rate can continue as the dominant instrument for implementing monetary policy, supplementing it with other quantity or macro-prudential ins

Approach to Capital Account Management - Shifting Contours
1. Thank you for inviting me to this forum once again and that too in these sublime environs. Only in such sublimity could the deeply spiritual concept of “Gross National Happiness” have been crystallised into a national policy mission. The theory of Gross National Happiness (GNH) established by His Majesty the King of Bhutan in 1972, defines Bhutan’s development objective as improvement in the happiness and satisfaction of the people rather than growth of Gross Natio

Implications of the Expansion of Central Bank Balance Sheets
1. At the outset, let me congratulate the BIS for bringing out a very analytical and comprehensive paper on the subject. The topic for the session has been thrown into prominence by the experience of the recent financial crisis when many central banks were forced to adopt an expansionary stance of monetary policy. The expansion of balance sheets of central banks has important monetary and financial implications. In normal times, a central bank’s balance sheet attracts
