IMF, World Bank commend RBI role in banking supervision

New Delhi, Jan 19 (UNI) International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank have commended the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for the remarkable progress in strengthening banking supervision.

The Report providing ‘Detailed Assessment of Observance—Basel Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision’ and the Report providing ‘Detailed Assessment of Observance of Clearing Corporation of India Limited (CCIL) Central Counter Party (CCP) and Trade Repository (TR)’, said that Most of the Basel III framework (and related guidance) has been implemented and cooperation arrangements, both domestically and cross-border, are now firmly in place.
India has welcomed these Assessment Reports by the joint IMF-World Bank team conforming to the highest international standards.
