...Q1 Describe the role of Financial Institutions. What are the various types of Financial Institutions active in the Indian Financial system ? ANS: Financial sector plays an indispensable role in the overall development of a country. The most important constituent of this sector is the financial institutions, which act as a conduit for the transfer of resources from net savers to net borrowers, that is, from those who spend less than their earnings to those who spend more than their earnings. Financial Institution is not a new concept in financial history. The evolution of financial institutions must be differentiated from economic history and history of money. In Europe, it may have started with the first commodity exchange, the Bruges Bourse in 1309 and the first financiers and banks in the 1400-1600s in central and Western Europe. The first global financiers the Fuggers (1487) in Germany; the first stock company in England (Russia Company 1553); the first foreign exchange market; the first stock exchange. In financial economics, a financial institution is an institution that provides financial services for its clients or members. Probably the most important financial service provided by financial institutions is acting as financial intermediaries. Most financial institutions are highly regulated by government bodies.

...Introduction The Indian Financial Institutions Sector The Indian Financial sector is still dominated by Bank intermediation. Though the size of Capital market has started expanding significantly from the early 1990s, bank intermediation remains the dominant feature. The market capitalization as a percentage of GDP in India is $ 1.03 trillion, which is about 90% of the GDP, while countries like Hong Kong (525% of GDP), Singapore (221%) are way ahead. India s Bond market capitalization also remains low at 50 % (McKinsey report) with the corporate bond market way behind the government debt market. The bank deposits account for 52% of the GDP, and about three fourth of the total assets of the financial system. (Paper by Wharton publications on financial systems in India, 2007). The Non Banking sector, including the Mutual funds, Non Banking Financial Companies, Insurance companies and Other Financial institutions account for over 30% of the Financial Sector’s assets. This adds up to about 26 lakh crore in assets (2008-09-FSAP). According to The Financial Development index-2008, India scores better in Financial intermediation through Non-Banks ranking 16th, compared to a rank of 50th in terms of Banks. India ranks better in terms of capital access comparable to Japan, in spite of much lower assets/GDP comparatively. Classification of Financial institutions The Financial institutions in India can be broadly classified into the categories as listed in the representation...

...fiscal policy of the government and the rescue package (if any) implemented by the government. This paper describes how government of India and RBI (Reserve bank of India, equivalent to Fed Reserve in US) tackled aftermath of global financial crisis in India. Effects of Global crisis Aftermath of Financial crisis was more prominent during 2008. As the global financial crisis began unfolding in the first nine months of 2008, foreign institutional investors pulled out close to $10 billion from India, dragging the capital market down with it. The liquidity crisis, coupled with the credit squeeze and a weak currency, hurt various sectors. Banks have reined in retail financing, affecting home and auto loans. Car loans account for 70% of consumer auto purchases now, down from 85% a year ago. Meanwhile, consumers are deferring other purchases while financiers have been logging a drop in loan disbursal rates At that time the Bombay Stock Exchange Index, or Sensex, tumbled 6% to a two-year low. For the first time in five years, the central bank cut the cash reserve ratio, the amount of funds that banks have to keep with the Reserve Bank of India by 50 basis points, to 8.5%, on Oct. 6, 2008. The same evening, the Securities & Exchange Commission of India eased some restrictions on foreign portfolio investors—such as registering in India before buying shares and limits on offshore derivatives—it had imposed in 2007. The stock market remained choppy, there's been a credit squeeze...

...Country Evaluation: India Describe the country of investment. Include the following: Economic structure, indicators and risk Throughout India the economic structure differs greatly from state to state. India is known for having one of the fasting growing economies in the world. This has a lot to do with the huge population in India. Capital, labor, and productivity growth have been the main contributors to the economic growth in the country. In recent years the Indian government has made great strides in strengthening the economy. Despite this push by the government there are still several very poor areas and the country still has a lot of uneven economic stability and because of this there is still a lot of room for improvement. The widespread poverty throughout India is one of the biggest challenges the country faces (Dasgupta & Chakraborty, 2005). For many years the Indian government had several rigid policies to discourage foreign investments but in recent years these policies have been under reform. Most of the growth that the economy of India has seen in recent years has been due to internal growth. The country depends very little on exports and this has been an advantage for their stability. When foreign countries have economic problems and in recent years when there are been global economic crisis, the effects are not felt as much on the Indian economy. India has a very good education system which is great for their economic growth. Unfortunately...

...Chavali AARLA SIREESHA 10SBCMO125 FINANCE C Bangalore ALLIANCE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS Page 1 INTRODUCTION Non-banking Financial Institutions carry out financing activities but their resources are not directly obtained from the savers as debt. Instead, these Institutions mobilize the public savings for rendering other financial services including investment. All such Institutions are financial intermediaries and when they lend, they are known as Non-Banking Financial Intermediaries (NBFIs) or Investment Institutions. Apart from these NBFIs, another part of Indian financial system consists of a large number of privately owned, decentralized, and relatively small-sized financial intermediaries. Most work in different, miniscule niches and make the market more broad-based and competitive. While some of them restrict themselves to fund-based business, many others provide financial services of various types. The entities of the former type are termed as "non-bank financial companies (nbfcs)". A robust banking and financial sector is critical for activating the economy and facilitating higher economic growth. Financial intermediaries like NBFCs have a definite and very important role in the financial sector, particularly in a developing economy like India. They are a vital link in the system. They have access to larger markets and provide financing for almost all activities. After the proliferation phase of 1980s and early 90s...
