Crisis in PSBs should be used as opportunity to privatise banks: ASSOCHAM

28 Mar 2018 Evaluate

The industry chamber Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) in its latest report has stated that the 'crisis' facing by India’s banking system, mainly public sector banks (PSBs), should be used as an opportunity to privatise the banks. As per the report, privatisation of the banks should not be done in a harsh manner and be done in a way that is acceptable to the political leadership.

The report noted that for starters, the government equity which is as high as 80 percent in some PSBs, should be brought down to below 50 percent. It also expects that the moment the government equity is below 50 percent, the banks would be out of the clutches of the CVC, CBI and CAG, giving more autonomy and confidence to the top management to lend freely without fear of being haunted. Besides, it said that the boards would then be much more professional and the independent directors would be truly independent.

ASSOCHAM also pointed out that the boards would then be empowered to take strategic decisions without going to the Finance Ministry, although the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) should and would continue to play the role of a regulator, but in a much more effective manner. It added that the narrative must be built to the effect that the government can use both PSBs and private sector banks as the agents of change, without hurting the interest of the lenders.
