India’s financial system remains stable notwithstanding weakening domestic growth: RBI

30 Dec 2019 Evaluate

The Apex bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in its latest ‘Financial Stability Report (FSR) December 2019’ has said that India’s financial system remains stable notwithstanding weakening domestic growth, further adding that the resilience of the banking sector has improved following recapitalization of Public Sector Banks (PSBs) by the Government. However, it said that risks arising out of global/domestic economic uncertainties and geopolitical developments persist.

As per the FSR, scheduled commercial banks’ (SCBs) credit growth remained subdued at 8.7 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y) in September 2019, while Private Sector Banks (PVBs) registered double digit credit growth of 16.5 per cent. Besides, SCBs’ capital adequacy ratio improved significantly after the recapitalization of public sector banks by the Government, while SCBs’ gross non-performing assets (GNPA) ratio remained unchanged at 9.3 per cent between March and September 2019.

On global and domestic macro-financial risks front, the report noted that the global economy confronted a number of uncertainties – a delay in the Brexit deal, trade tensions, whiff of an impending recession, oil-market disruptions and geopolitical risks – leading to significant deceleration in growth. These uncertainties weighed on consumer confidence and business sentiment, dampened investment intentions and unless properly addressed are likely to remain a key drag on global growth.

As regards the domestic economy, it said that aggregate demand slackened in Q2:2019-20 further extending the growth deceleration. While the outlook for capital inflows remains positive, India’s exports could face headwinds in the event of sustained global slowdown but current account deficit is likely to be under control reflecting muted energy price outlook.
