The recent growth momentum of the Indian economy is leading to renewed interest in India’s growth prospects. As the mid-year review of the annual policy is just over I thought instead of giving just a run-down of the current state of the Indian economy let me put the current trends into a broader perspective - both with respect to the longer term trend an

Financial inclusion has become a buzzword internationally – even in developed financial markets there are concerns about those excluded from the banking system especially migrant workers.

Economic Growth, Financial Deepening and Financial Inclusion
I. Introduction I would like to thank the Indian Banks Association and the Andhra Bank for inviting me to this Conference, which has become an annual feature of the calendar for bankers and financial sector professionals.

Risks Associated with Macroeconomic Adjustments: Global Perspective
I. Growth Trends I am happy to observe the continued healthy expansion of world GDP and that the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is projecting only a marginal slowdown from 5.1 per cent in 2006 to 4.9 per cent in 2007. It is important to note, however, that some other forecasters are not so sanguine. The global economy has maintained its pace of growth in the first half of 2006. Although growth rates recorded in most of the advanced as well as emerging economies hav

Changing Paradigms in Risk Management
The world of finance has always had an intuitive understanding of risk. The risks that emerge from the increased variety and complexities of banking business, as well as from the various new drivers of growth has pushed the contours of risk management in banks much beyond what would probably have existed in the more traditional forms of banking activity of accepting deposits and lending in relatively stable environments. Internationally, the last two decades or so hav
