RBI rate hike to manage growth inflation dynamics
October 03, 2022
SBI Chairman Dinesh Khara opined that the monetary policy statement, which was on expected lines, is a nudge to stay nimble and agile in a volatile global environment.
Considering the evolving macroeconomic developments domestically and across the globe, the 50 bps repo hike is on expected lines, said A K Goel, chairman of the Indian Banks Association.
He, however, was quick to note that considering the headwinds from the geopolitical tensions and tightening of the global financial conditions, there is risk to our external sector, especially exports.
Goel, who is also the managing director of Punjab National Bank, welcomed the various measures like the 28-day variable rate repo auctions (VRRR) with 14-day VRRR to tide over temporary moderation in surplus liquidity in the system.
He thanked the regulator for agreeing to release a discussion paper on expected loss based approach for loan loss provisioning by banks, in response to IBA’s recent representation.
