RBI asks Govt to speed up reforms in banking system

The Hindu  

The Reserve Bank of India on Thursday warned the Government that any delay in reform of the banking system in the country would lead to greater risk in the economy. “The current stress in the banking system suggests that the real economy will not wait for the banking system, and a slow pace of reform could lead to greater, rather than lower risk residing in the banking system,” wrote RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan in his overview of the central bank’s annual report 2014-15. “Financial sector reforms need to move on many fronts,” said Dr. Rajan, adding, “for a country as big and populous as India, reforms cannot be shots in the dark, subjecting the economy to great uncertainty and risk.” “Wherever possible, we have to move steadily but firmly, ever expanding the scope of reforms while always limiting the uncertainty they create. While talking on financial sector, Dr. Rajan said that “we need to increase efficiency through greater entry and competition.” The most appropriate institutions will prevail when the competitive arena is level, so we have to remove regulatory privileges as well as impediments wherever possible, especially those that are biased towards some form of ownership or some particular institutional form.
