Narrow Banking : Weak banks whose accumulated losses and net NPAs exceed
their capital funds can be rehabilitated by branding them as “Narrow Banks”
(banks which restrict their operation to only certain activities).
Mergers: Merger among the banks to be encouraged especially among the strong
banks to obtain “ Force Multiplier Effect”.
Govt. Holding in Banks: Govt. holding in banks should be reduced to 33%
The Govt. should not disinvest its capital. The capital should be increased by
market subscription to bring down the Govt. holding to 33%.
Directed Credit: The directed credit should also encompass other areas of
credit like food processing, fisheries, dairy,etc.
The legislative framework should be made a lot more flexible to give the
regulatory/supervisory authority sufficient powers to adequately deal with
rapid financial innovations.
Future of Financial Institutions
The future of financial institutions has been the centre of debate for
the past many years.
NarasimhamII had set out that the FIs should either become banks or
NBFCs.
The FIs are far too big to be allowed to function outside the regulatory
framework for banks, and yet enjoy a favorite son status.
From the Man Himself..
“No reform can indeed be painless. We have to appreciate
that the quest for competitive efficiency will take its toll
of the weak and the inefficient. These pains, however,
are a necessary foundation for the emergence of a
strong and viable financial system, which will conform to
best international practices and make its distinctive
contribution to the furtherance of our national objectives
of growth, justice and external viability.”
- Sri M. Narsimham.
