Ladies and gentlemen, a very good morning. A central banker addressing an impressive gathering of technology experts on a topic which is their very own – to say the least, is a formidable task. In the current global financial context, though, I may not be surprised if many central banks, as regulators of banking and other financial institutions get more engaged with the technology aspects of the regulated institutions’ operations. 2.

Lessons from the Global Financial Crisis with special reference to Emerging Market Economies and India
