Reproduction for educational and non-commercial purposes is permitted provided that the source is acknowledged. An electronic copy of this book is available at www.nrb.org.np. Foreword Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) was established as the central bank of the country on April 26, 1956. During its six-decade long journey, NRB has made a significant progress in monetary, foreign exchange, and financial sectors. This publication 'Sixty Yeears of Nepal Rastra Bank' has been commissioned to commemorate NRB's reaching its sixty-year milestone by taking a walk down the memory lane of the major course of actions taken, progression of institutional development and evolution of its major functions. During the span of six decades, besides responsibly carrying out the traditional central banking roles and responsibilities, NRB has remained a firm anchor, constantly providing the solid foundation for ensuring monetary and financial stability. Over the years, monetary management has been streamlined and strengthened while the financial sector has been expanded and consolidated. For undertaking such responsibilities, NRB has transformed its organizational structure and management process for catalyzing the opportunities and proactively mitigating the challenges. Nepal Rastra Bank has sought to devise and implement appropriate and timely policy measures to promote financial sector development, orient monetary management towards improving price, balance of payments, financial sector and exchange rate stability, as well as facilitating the overall development of the economy.
