Summary: | The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is to be
commended for its tightly controlled regulatory and
supervisory regime, consisting of higher than minimum
capital requirements, frequent, hands-on and comprehensive
onsite inspections, a conservative liquidity risk policy and
restrictions on banks' capacity to take on more
volatile exposures. The Indian banking system remained
largely stable during the global financial crisis. Since
then, the government of India and RBI has taken additional
measures to enhance the soundness and resilience of the
banking system, such as the establishment of a Financial
Stability and Development Council (FSDC), the implementation
of a countercyclical provisioning regime, and the
development of a roadmap for the introduction of a holding
company structure. |
