Monetary Policy Measures Complement Finance Ministry’s Policies Aimed at Controlling Inflation and Promoting Sustainable Growth: FM. Finance Minister, Shri Pranab Mukherjee has welcomed the Monetary Policy 2010-11 announced today by the Reserve Bank of India. Finance Minister’s observations on Monetary Policy are as under:
Core Investment Companies :-Reserve Bank of India [RBI] has announced on 20 April 2010 a proposal to introduce a new regulatory framework for Non-Banking Financial Companies [NBFC] which are “Core Investment Companies” [CIC]. The announcement was made as part of Annual Monetary Policy for the year 2010-11.
The Monetary Policy for 2010-11 is set against a rather complex economic backdrop. Although the situation is more reassuring than it was a quarter ago, uncertainty about the shape and pace of global recovery persists. Private spending in advanced economies continues to be constrained and inflation remains generally subdued making it likely that fiscal and monetary stimuli in these economies will continue for an extended period.
Repo Rate :- It has been decided to increase the repo rate under the Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF) by 25 basis points from 5.0 per cent to 5.25 per cent with immediate effect. Reverse Repo Rate :- It has been decided to increase the reverse repo rate under the LAF by 25 basis points from 3.5 per cent to 3.75 per cent with immediate effect.
