Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Sanjay Malhotra said the RBI will move ahead with efforts to deepen financial markets, broaden participation, and further strengthen institutional frameworks. He said the central bank will also continue to strive for efficiency, consumer protection, fairness, transparency, and ethical conduct. In this pursuit, it will continue to assess and meet the emerging market needs.
He said that geo-economic fragmentation caused by tariffs, trade restrictions, and industrial policies are reshaping not only global supply chains, they are also affecting the free movement of capital and leading to the fragmentation of financial flows. He said the disrupted supply chains and rising energy prices has already affected economic activity and if the crisis persists longer, it may also translate into second?order inflationary pressures.
RBI Governor has stated that India’s macroeconomic fundamentals remained robust supported by strong consumption and sustained public investment, despite macroeconomic headwinds from geo?political tensions. He said the government's focus on capital expenditure has helped crowd in private investment and improve productive capacity. He noted that Indian economy grew at an average of 8.2 per cent during 2021-25, with 7.6 per cent growth estimated for 2025-26 and 6.9 per cent projected for 2026-27.
He further said that corporate balance sheets have improved, supported by stronger earnings, and the fund mobilisation by Indian corporates through public markets has remained strong over the last two financial years. He emphasised that Indian financial markets have matured considerably over the past few years, which is an outcome of conscious policy choices over the years.
