The RBI, which hiked interest rates for the tenth time in 15 months today, said it will continue with its tight monetary policy as inflation is spreading to the non-food segment also, which is a concern. Based on the current and evolving growth and inflation scenario, the Reserve Bank will need to persist with its anti-inflationary stance of monetary policy, the central bank said in its mid-quarter review of credit policy.
As announced in the Mid-Quarter Monetary Policy Review: June 2011, it has been decided to increase the repo rate under the Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF) by 25 basis points from 7.25 per cent to 7.50 per cent with immediate effect.

The set of policies which deal with managing the downside of systemic risk is known as macro prudential policy. Macroprudential policies primarily use prudential tools to limit systemic risk and thereby minimize disruptions in the provision of key financial services that can have serious consequences for the economy by (i) dampening the buildup of financial imbalances; (ii) building defenses that contain the speed and sharpness of subsequent downswings and their effects on the economy; and (iii) identifying and addressing common exposures, risk concentrations, linkages and inter-dependencies that are sources of contagion and spillover risks that may jeopardize the functioning of the system as a whole2. While the third objective of macroprudential policy [(iii) above] is concerned with the cross-sectional dimension, the first two objectives [(i) and (ii) above] are concerned with the procyclicality issues.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) today cautioned rising interest rate and high cost of funds could hurt the profitability of the banking sector. ‘Going ahead, with hardening interest rates and the imminent increase in cost of funds, the credit growth is expected to slow down, which could adversely affect the profitability,’ the RBI said in Financial Stability Report released today.
With an aim to regulate the credit system to the advantage of the country, the Reserve Bank today said NBFCs cannot open subsidiaries or enter into joint ventures abroad without its permission. ‘No NBFC shall open subsidiaries/joint ventures/ representative office abroad or shall make investment in any foreign entities without obtaining prior approval in writing from the Reserve Bank of India,, the central bank said in a notification.
Reserve Bank today admitted that its own tight monetary policy, besides rising crude oil prices and uncertain global environment, poses a threat to India’s growth momentum in the current fiscal. ‘The slackening of global recovery, high oil and commodity prices, deceleration in domestic industrial growth, uncertainty about continuation of strong growth in agricultural sector and impact of monetary policy actions pose downside risks to India’s GDP’, RBI said in a report.
India could see some slowdown in capital inflows going forward as advanced economies exit from the easy monetary policy, making it tougher to fund a widening current account deficit, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) said in its Financial Stability report.
