Addressing the Regulatory Perimeter Issues – Indian Experience
1. The regulatory perimeter or boundary issue has been engaging the attention of policy makers internationally for quite some time but it was not a central issue associated with the current crisis. Paradoxically the origins as well the severity of impact of the crisis were concentrated in the most heavily regulated institutions. However, in my view, the real issue lay in not recognizing and addressing the dynamic inter-connectedness between entities across regulated,

I was really struggling to select a theme for today’s address. I intended it to be relevant but not repetitive, comprehensive but not broad brush, having a policymaker’s perspective but not too uni-dimensional. Finally the theme I zeroed down on emerged out of this very exercise of the balancing act - the dilemmas and conflicts thrown up for the policymakers by the paradoxical character of recent turn of events in the global financial markets. It is rather surprising
