Central Bank Digital Currency – A critical analysis on the role of CBDC in transforming India’s financial landscape
- Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) introduced by the Reserve Bank of India aims to transform the country's financial landscape through transparency, efficiency, and financial inclusion.
- The initiative focuses on achieving objectives like trust, safety, liquidity, settlement finality, and integrity in the financial markets.
- Properly defining objectives and governance structures is essential for successful implementation of a CBDC scheme to avoid failures like those seen in Finland and Nigeria.
- Enhancing awareness among consumers and ensuring user-friendliness of CBDC are crucial for its acceptance and effectiveness in the domestic economy.
- The CBDC pilot in India, known as e-rupee, has shown promising results in terms of financial inclusion, user-friendly features, and widespread acceptance.
- While CBDC offers benefits such as anonymity and credit facilities, challenges like competition with existing payment systems and resistance from the banking sector remain.
- Full-fledged implementation of CBDC requires addressing inefficiencies and ensuring a consumer-oriented approach to drive India towards a digital finance era.
- International experiences highlight the importance of a well-defined CBDC scheme to make India a hub of digital finance.
- CBDC's success depends on its ability to compete with established systems and meet consumer expectations in terms of efficiency and convenience.
- Thorough deliberation and consideration are necessary for the successful integration of CBDC into India's financial landscape.

RBI Uncomfortable With My Leadership Skills: IndusInd Bank CEO
- The Reserve Bank of India is "not comfortable with my leadership skills" of running IndusInd Bank Ltd., Chief Executive Officer Sumanth Kathpalia said on Monday.

‘Impossible Trinity’ Conundrum Has Caused A Cash Crunch In Asia
- The 'Impossible Trinity' conundrum in Asia has led to a cash crunch in the region.
- Central banks in Asia, including China and India, have faced challenges in managing their currencies amidst a strong dollar.
- The idea of the impossible trinity suggests that countries cannot control their currencies, set interest rates independently, and allow free movement of capital simultaneously.
- Rising interbank rates due to currency stability efforts can lead to cash shortages in the economy, impacting lending and growth.
- Central banks like the Reserve Bank of India are injecting funds to counter the cash crunch caused by defending currencies.
- Currency volatility amid global trade tensions poses challenges for emerging market central banks.
- Some central banks, like Bank Indonesia and Bank Negara Malaysia, have taken unique measures to protect their currencies, impacting liquidity.
- There is an irony in central banks' efforts to counter a strong dollar, given the costs associated with currency strength, including those faced by the US.
- Asian central banks may prefer a period of dollar weakness to alleviate their own challenges stemming from a strong dollar.
