This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​ The goal of this book is to assess the efficacy of India’s financial deregulation programme by analyzing the developments in cost efficiency and total factor productivity growth across different ownership types and size classes in the banking sector over the post-deregulation years. The work also gauges the impact of inclusion or exclusion of a proxy for non-traditional activities on the cost efficiency estimates for Indian banks, and ranking of distinct ownership groups. It also investigates the hitherto neglected aspect of the nature of returns-to-scale in the Indian banking industry. In addition, the work explores the key bank-specific factors that explain the inter-bank variations in efficiency and productivity growth. Overall, the empirical results of this work allow us to ascertain whether the gradualist approach to reforming the banking system in a developing economy like India has yielded the most significant policy goal of achieving efficiency and productivity gains. The authors believe that the findings of this book could give useful policy directions and suggestions to other developing economies that have embarked on a deregulation path or are contemplating doing so.

Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK Banking sector reforms in India are aimed at induction of best international practices and technological changes for competing globally. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has time and again emphasised transparency, diversification of ownership and strong corporate governance to mitigate the prospects of systemic risks in the banking sector. Banking sector reforms have supported the transition of the Indian economy to a higher growth path, while significantly improving the stability of the financial system. In comparison with the pre-reform period, the Indian banking system today is more stable and efficient. However, the gains of the past decade need to be consolidated, so that these could be translated to drive the institutions, markets and practices into a mature financial system that can meet the challenges of globalisation. The banking system would, therefore, not only need to be stable, but also supportive of still higher levels of planned investments by channelling financial resources more efficiently from surplus to deficit sectors. Competitive pressures as well as prudential regulatory requirements have made banks risk-averse as reflected in their tendency to investment in relatively risk-free gilt instruments. The behaviour and strategies of banking business need changes in favour of risk-taking even while performing core activities. Also, there is a need to ensure long-term finance to support development and growth in the economy, even as restructuring takes place through mergers and universal banking. The present book addresses issues like Basel ? II Accord guidelines, second generation banking sector reforms, cost-benefit and productivity analysis of Indian banks, danger zone banks, privatisation and comparative efficiency of Indian banks and the recent reform measures. Vital statistics regarding the Indian banking sector and the recent Annual Policy Statement, 2008-09 of the RBI has also been discussed. About the author Dr. R.K.

The purpose of this book is to detail the structural reform process undertaken by India and to evaluate its results. In the post-liberalization period, the country has moved to a higher growth path. Objective conditions exist for the economy to grow at a sustained rate of seven per cent.

Download or read book Indian Financial Sector written by Rakesh Mohan and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper traces the story of Indian financial sector over the period 1950–2015. In identifying the trends and turns of Indian financial sector, the paper adopts a three period classification viz., (a) the 1950s and 1960s, which exhibited some elements of instability associated with laissez faire but underdeveloped banking; (b) the 1970s and 1980s that experienced the process of financial development across the country under government auspices, accompanied by a degree of financial repression; and (c) the period since the 1990s till date, that has been characterized by gradual and calibrated financial deepening and liberalization. Focusing more the third period, the paper argues that as a consequence of successive reforms over the past 25 years, there has been significant progress in making interest and exchange rates largely market determined, though the exchange rate regime remains one of managed float, and some interest rates remain administered. Considerable competition has been introduced in the banking sector through new private sector banks, but public sector banks continue have a dominant share in the market. Contractual savings systems have been improved, but pension funds in India are still in their infancy. Similarly, despite the introduction of new private sector insurance companies coverage of insurance can expand much further, which would also provide greater depth to the financial markets. The extent of development along all the segments of the financial market has not been uniform. While the equity market is quite developed, activities in the private debt market are predominantly confined to private placement form and continue to be limited to the bluechip companies. Going forward, the future areas for development in the Indian financial sector would include further reduction of public ownership in banks and insurance companies, expansion of the contractual savings system through more rapid expansion of the insurance and pension systems, greater spread of mutual funds, and development of institutional investors. It is only then that both the equity and debt markets will display greater breadth as well as depth, along with greater domestic liquidity. At the same time, while reforming the financial sector, the Indian authorities had to constantly keep the issues of equity and efficiency in mind.

Book excerpt: The Role of Banks in Economic Development The economic development of a country relies heavily on the pivotal role played by banks. Banks not only contribute significantly to economic growth but also play a crucial role in ensuring the financial stability of a nation. In emerging economies, banks hold special significance for three primary reasons. First, they actively foster the development of financial intermediaries and markets. Second, due to the absence of well-developed equity and bond markets, the corporate sector heavily relies on banks to fulfill its financing requirements. Third, in emerging markets like India, banks address the needs of a vast number of savers from the household sectors who prioritize stable income, liquidity, and the safety of their money, primarily due to their limited capacity to manage financial risks effectively. Evolution of Banking in a Changing Landscape Over the years, the forms of banking have undergone transformation in response to the evolving needs of the economy. Deregulation, technological advancements, and globalization have brought about a significant transformation in the banking and financial system. Banks have expanded their operations into areas that were traditionally beyond their scope, while non-banking intermediaries have started to assume many of the functions traditionally performed by banks. Consequently, banks find themselves competing not only amongst themselves but also with non-banking entities. This competition has intensified over time, compelling banking institutions worldwide to introduce innovative products, identify new sources of income, and diversify into non-traditional functions. Developed countries' financial institutions have effectively harnessed Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as a marketing tool in this regard. Challenges and Transformation in the Indian Banking Sector The Indian banking sector, which operated in a bureaucratic fashion before 1991, underwent a massive transformation following the opening up of the economy. The sector has faced unprecedented challenges with the advent of Liberalization, Privatization, and Globalization (LPG) in the Indian economy. Today, banks in India confront intense pressure in the volatile marketplace, driven by steep competition, globalization, escalating customer demands, and heightened exposure to credit risks. This pressure compels banks to explore innovative ways to enhance their profitability and sustainability.

Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK 17 years of financial reforms in India have created a fairly sound framework for higher growth and integration with the world economy. Though the task is by no means complete, the groundwork that has been laid will allow us to move rapidly towards the financial architecture that is appropriate for a country of India?s size and aspirations. Financial markets and institutions need to evolve considerably in order to keep up with the requirements of Indian firms and Indian investors in coming years. The corporate bond market is moribund and will have to be revived and a number of missing markets will have to be created, including exchange traded interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives contracts. But even in markets that exist, apart from the equity market for large capitalization stock, the ability to trade consistently at low cost and the tendency of market prices to reflect fundamentals are typically low for most markets. The country has moved on to a higher growth trajectory. To sustain and accelerate the growth momentum, further reforms in the financial sector are called for including a robust infrastructure for credit and an effective regulatory framework This book contains 14 papers, authored by scholars in the field, which deal with various dimensions of emerging financial scenario in India.

Download or read book Banking Industry in India written by Sonali Jain and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the world, the banking industry has undergone a transformation since the early 1980s under the impact of deregulation, advances in information technology, and globalization. Although these developments have made institutions more efficient by lowering transaction costs, they have also challenged the traditional regulatory arrangements based on institutions. Prior to reforms initiated in 1991, the banking sector in India suffered from a lack of competition, low capital base, inefficiency, and high intermediation costs. Ever since bank nationalization of 1969, the banking sector had been dominated by the public sector, along with a high degree of financial repression characterized by administered interest rates. Banking sector reforms have supported the transition of the Indian economy to a higher growth path, while significantly improving the stability of the financial system. This book provides a vivid account of the evolution of the banking sector in India during the post-Independence period, with a focus on financial reforms initiated in 1991. The various dimensions of the banking industry that are covered include, inter alia: (a) the ownership and governance of banks, (b) the regulation and supervision of banks, (c) credit allocation policies, (d) customer services, and (e) internet banking.
