Policy Discipline and Spillovers in an Inter-connected Global Economy
The interconnected world is not new. We have been living in it for some time. For half a century, exports, international capital flows, and foreign direct investment have been growing much faster than GDP, binding economies ever more tightly together. In many ways, this process has been a tremendous force for good. My own country, India, is testament to that. Integration with the world contributed to growth, lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. But i

Central Bank Governance Issues : Some RBI Perspectives
Thank you for this opportunity to speak on some central bank governance issues from the perspective of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). I will raise some specific issues.

Global Challenges, Global Solutions: Some Remarks
Mr. Chairman 1. Recent experience suggests that globalization offers incredible opportunities but also poses immense challenges.

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

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
