Reserve Bank of India (RBI): All You Need to Know About ambitiousbaba.com Online Test Series Reserve Bank of India (RBI): All you need to know about History of RBI The Reserve Bank of India was established following the Reserve Bank of India Act of 1934. Though privately owned initially, it was nationalised in 1949 and since then fully owned by Government of India (GoI). The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is India’s central banking institution, which controls the issuance and supply of the Indian rupee. Until the Monetary Policy Committee was established in 2016, it also controlled monetary policy in India. It commenced its operations on 1 April 1935 in accordance with the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The original share capital was divided into shares of 100 each fully paid, which were initially owned entirely by private shareholders. Following India’s independence on 15 August 1947, the RBI was nationalised on 1 January 1949. Prior to the establishment of the Reserve Bank, the Indian financial system was totally inadequate dual control of currency by the Central Government and of credit by the Imperial Bank of India. The Hilton-Young Commission, therefore ended by setting-up of a central bank — called the Reserve Bank of India — which would regulate the financial policy and develop banking facilities throughout the country. Hence, the Reserve Bank of India was established with this primary object in view. One Governor: it is the highest authority of RBI. He is appointed by the Government of India for a term of 5 years. He can be re-appointed for another term. Four Deputy Governors: Four deputy Governors are nominated by Central Govt. for a term of 5 years. Fifteen Directors: Other fifteen members of the Central Board are appointed by the Central Government. Out of these , four directors,one each from the four local Boards are nominated by the Government separately by the Central Government.

  • Political Economy of Central Banking in India Partha Ray / Preliminary Draft / November 17, 2014
    Political Economy of Central Banking in India Partha Ray / Preliminary Draft / November 17, 2014 Political Economy of Central Banking in India1 Partha Ray2 1. Introduction Apart from matters of detail, can the political economy of an economic institution be captured in terms of the political economy of the aggregate economy? If the Indian economic policy configuration gets dictated by a confluence of elite interest groups such as bureaucrats, big business, and big farmers, does the political economy of the central bank in India not get defined by the same groups? If answers to such questions are in the affirmative, then looking into the political economy of a central bank could be superfluous. However, it has been noted, “The paradox is that while the state in India has been powerful (and often heavy-handed) in its regulatory and interventionist role, it will not be described as what the political economy literature calls a ‘strong state’” (Bardhan, undated).3 It is in this context that the political economy of central banking in India deserves special attention. Admittedly, to a large extent, in mainstream economics, central banks have been widely seen as technocratic institutions handling monetary policy (and banking supervision in many cases), essentially enjoying a monopoly over monetary policy. Then the obvious question is: why can’t a central bank perform as a specialized government department? After all, in a representative democracy, at a level of broad generalization, peoples’ aspirations are expected to be reflected in the elected

    NOVEMBER - 2018 www.uniqueshiksha.com NOVEMBER-2018 Indian Economy and issues relating to planning, mobilization of resources, growth, development and employment Support for lives on the move #GS3 #Economy What: Internal migration can be driven by push and/or pull factors. In India, over the recent decades, agrarian distress (a push factor) and an increase in better-paying jobs in urban areas (a pull factor) have been drivers of internal migration. Data show that employment-seeking is the principal reason for migration in regions without conflict. Distress due to unemployment or underemployment in agriculture, natural calamities, and input/output market imperfections. Why: • At the destination, a migrant’s lack of skills presents a major hindrance in entering the labour market. • Further, the modern formal urban sector has often not been able to absorb the large number of rural workers entering the urban labour market. • This has led to the growth of the ‘urban informal’ economy, which is marked by high poverty and vulnerabilities. • The ‘urban informal’ economy is wrongly understood in countries such as India as a transient phenomenon. • Most jobs in the urban informal sector pay poorly and involve self-employed workers who turn to petty production because of their inability to find wage labour. • Migrant workers earn only two-thirds of what is earned by non-migrant workers, according to 2014 data. • Further, they have to incur a large cost of migration which includes the ‘search cost’ and the hazard of being cheated. • Often these costs escalate as they are outside the state-provided health care and education system; this forces them to borrow from employers in order to meet these expenses.

    BOOK REVIEW Dialogue of the Deaf – The Government and the RBI Srinivasa Raghavan, T.C.A.; Dialogue of the Deaf – The Government and the RBI; Tranquebar Press, 2017 pages 290 cost Rs. 599/- V.Srinivas* T.C.A. Srinivasa Raghavan’s book “Dialogue of the Deaf – The Government and the RBI” is based on the first 3 volumes of the RBI’s official history, speeches of Governors and Deputy Governors and news-paper articles covering the RBI’s history and interactions with Government in the years 1935 to 2008. T.C.A. Srinivasa Raghavan was contracted to by the RBI to edit and rewrite some parts of Volume 3 of the RBI’s history covering the years 1967-81. He worked closely with the RBI for the years 2003-2011 closely examining the archival records and the functioning of the organization. His book represents a serious contribution to RBI history, from a non-official. The journey of the RBI from being called a subordinate office of Government, to being the savior of India in the 2008 global financial crisis represents the underlying theme of the book. The author is candid and lucid in his analysis. I never met T.C.A.Srinivasa Raghavan. That said, I am aware of his work through his numerous articles in the economic newspapers over the past 2 decades. I remember the irritation expressed by Finance Minister Jaswant Singh at one of his articles in my years as Private Secretary to Finance Minister. His articles always evoked reactions, positive or negative, but they could not be ignored as they dealt with contemporary national policy.
