Liquidity rule upsets banks
Mint Bangalore
|January 22, 2025
Some of India's largest lenders are planning to request concessions from the new head of the nation's central bank regarding proposed liquidity regulations, arguing the rules could hamper efforts to boost lending, according to people familiar with the developments.
Banks plan to urge the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to delay the implementation of the new liquidity coverage ratio norms, currently due to take effect on 1 April, according to the people, who declined to be identified discussing private matters. The request will be made through the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), which will meet recently-appointed RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra in the coming days, the people said.
