In a Working Paper published by the Reserve Bank of India has argued that the guidance given by Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) is not appropriate for India. The finding is based on the analysis of annual banking data for the last 60 years since 1950-51. The authors have also showcased an alternative capital buffer guidance reflecting, among other things, the current status of economic development and the underlying banking business model in India. Using the annual data since 1990-91, the authors have empirically verified the performance of the alternative buffer guidance vis-à-vis the BCBS guidance. The salient findings of the research are:
Monetary policy transmission is a process through which monetary policy decisions affect the economy in general and the price level in particular. It is a complex process, wherein the transmission of policy actions to market interest rates and further to real sector may proceed through several channels. Therefore, monetary policy transmission mechanism is still considered to be a “black box”. In this context, this paper, using SVAR models on quarterly data for 1996-97:1 to 2011-12:1, examines the relative importance of various transmission channels of monetary policy to output growth and inflation in India.
The Mission statement indicates RBI’s renewed commitment towards providing a safe, efficient, accessible, inclusive, interoperable and authorised payment and settlement systems for the country.

The paper Monetary Transmission Mechanism in India: A Quarterly Model examines the impact of monetary policy actions on growth and inflation. Given the volatility emanating from the agricultural sector, the paper models both overall growth and overall inflation as well as non-agricultural growth and non-food manufactured products inflation, i.e., components stripped of the influence from the agricultural sector and which are more amenable to monetary actions. The paper also estimates the impact of oil prices, real exchange rate and fiscal variables on growth and of exchange rate and minimum support prices on inflation.
In an environment of growing integration among the financial markets, volatility in the exchange rate of a currency could not only be attributed to domestic macroeconomic and global factors but also attributed to spillover effects emanating from other volatile markets due to market microstructure in terms of differences in timing of trading activity, bid-ask spreads and risk perceptions. In this context, this paper analyses volatility spillovers from the exchange rates of the Brazilian Real, the Russian Ruble, the South Korean Won, the Singapore Dollar, the Japanese Yen, the Swiss Franc, the British Pound Sterling and the Euro to the exchange rate of the Indian Rupee during 2005-11.
