Challenges for Central Banks in the Context of the Crisis
Central banks and central bankers have been at the heart of the global financial crisis. We have been blamed for policies and actions that got the world into the crisis; we are also being praised for leading from the front in getting the world out of the crisis. I believe this is fair critique - central banks have been a part of the problem and a part of the solution. 2. As we emerge out of the crisis, central banks have their task cut out for them: to distil the less

Financial Markets – Some Regulatory Issues and Recent Developments
1. It is my pleasure to be here today again, at the FIMMDA-PDAI annual conference as we enter into a new decade. The last decade in the Indian financial sector has been a forward continuum marked by significant developments. It was in 1999 that guidelines for interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements were first introduced. 1999 was also the year when FEMA was enacted and since then it has been a process of measured opening up of the capital account.

Learning from Crises
Ladies and Gentlemen, The late John Kenneth Galbraith, Harvard Economics Professor Emeritus, attributed the longevity of his book The Great Crash 1929 – published in 1955 and never since out of print – to the tendency of history to threaten a repeat. "Each time it has been about to pass from bookstores," he wrote in a later foreword, "another speculative episode – another bubble or the ensuing misfortune – has stirred interest in the history of this, the great modern

Emerging Market Concerns: An Indian Perspective

These are: first, timing of exit from the accommodative monetary policy in the context of rising food price-led inflation but still weak growth; second, the possibility of another surge in capital flows, especially if we turn out to be an outlier in withdrawal of monetary stimulus; third, monetary transmission mechanism as it is evolving from
