Risks to the banking sector increased in last six months: RBI

30 Dec 2013 Evaluate

Reserve Bank of India (RBI), in its ‘Financial Stability Report – December 2013’, has underscored that risks to the banking sector have increased during the past half-year and that all the risks dimensions captured in the banking stability indicator show increase in vulnerabilities in the banking sector. As per the report banking stability measures, based on co-movements in banks' equity prices, also indicate that the distress dependencies within the banking system have risen during this period.

Further, the analysis shows that failure of a major corporate or a major corporate group could trigger a contagion in the banking system due to exposures of a large number of banks to such corporates. Additionally, RBI in its report expressed concerns over asset quality of banks. It highlighted that macro stress tests on credit risk suggest that if the adverse macroeconomic conditions persist, the credit quality of commercial banks could deteriorate further. However, it also underscored that under improved conditions, the present trend in credit quality may reverse during the second half of 2014-15.

Moreover, RBI remained more distressed over asset quality of Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs). It noted that Gross Non-performing Assets (GNPA) ratio of SCBs as well as their restructured standard advances ratio increased and therefore the total stressed advances ratio rose significantly to 10.2 per cent of total advances as at end September 2013 from 9.2 per cent of March 2013.
