NEED FOR CORRUPTION FREE BANKING IN INDIA

Introduction: Corruption is dishonest behaviour or abuse of entrusted power for private gain. It starts with the tendency of using public office for some personal benefit, implies the failure of ethics and erodes trust, weakens democracy, hampers economic development, undermines democratic institutions slows economic development, contributes to governmental instability and further exacerbates inequality, poverty, social division and the environmental crisis. Corruption is a complex social, political and economic phenomenon that affects all civilisations and attacks the foundation of democratic institutions by distorting electoral processes, perverting the rule of law and creating bureaucratic quagmires whose only reason for existing is the soliciting of bribes.

UNSECURED RETAIL LENDING IN INDIA + CAPTURING EMERGING TRENDS

Abstract: In recent times, RBI has been vocal about the high growth rate of unsecured retail credit in India as compared to the overall credit growth in the country. The RBI has termed the unsecured retail credit an outlier segment\" as far as its growth rate is concerned and has drawn the attention of banks and NBFCs in this regard. As part of regulatory intervention, RBI has also increased the risk weights associated with unsecured credit exposure of banks and NBFCs. Post this development, the banking fraternity has been divided in their understanding of the ground realities. On one hand, there is a school of thought which feels that the recent surges in the unsecured retail lending in India is backed by solid macros. Whereas, others feel that the more than expected upsurge is a sign of incipient stress and might pose systemic risk, if not dealt with an iron hand.
