The financial institutions channel the funds of surplus economic units to those wanting to spend on real capital investment, Funds are transferred through the creation of financial liabilities such as bonds and equity shares. It was estimated by the Prime Directory that in 1996-97 there were 20,158 financial intermediaries. Financial intermediation can enhance growth by pooling funds of the small and scattered savers and allocating them for investment in an efficient manner by using their informational advantage in the loan market. They are principal mobilisers of surplus funds to finance productive activity and to the extent that they promote capital accumulation, they promote growth. - Financial institutions provide three transformation services. Firstly, liability, asset and size transformation consisting of mobilisation of funds and their allocation (provision of large loans on the basis of numerous small deposits). Secondly, maturity transformation by offering the savers the relatively short-term claim or liquid deposit they prefer and providing borrowers long-term loans which are better matched to the cash flows generated by their investment. Finally, risk transformation by transforming and reducing the risk involved in direct lending by acquiring more diversified portfolios than individual savers can: The expansion of the financial network or an increase in financial intermediation as denoted by the ratio of financial assets of all kinds to gross national product accompanies growth. To a certain extent, gre /th of savings is facilitated by the increase in the range of financial instruments and expansion f markets. The ability of the financial intermediaries to ensure the most efficient transformation of mobilised funds into real capital has not, however, received the attention it deserves. Institutional mechanisms to ensure end use of funds have not been efficient in their functioning, leaving the investor unprotected. Efficient financial intermediation involves reduction of the transaction cost of transferring funds from original savers to financial investors. The total cost of intermediation is influenced by financial layering which makes the individual institution's costs additive in the total cost of intermediating between savers and ultimate borrowers. The aggregate cost of financial intermediation from the original saver to ultimate investor is much higher in developing countries than in developed countries. Financial services contributed 6 per cent of GNP (1995) as compared to 3.7 per cent before liberalisation in the late eighties. Theories of endogenous growth have established firm linkages between financial intermediation and economic growth. * REFERENCES Reserve Bank of India, Report on Capital Account Convertibility, June 1997.
