Q4-10 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
The Reserve Bank of India has struck the right balance between flexibility and prudence in its operating guidelines for small finance and payments banks. Keeping in mind the differentiated business models of these new-age banks and the contribution that technology and digital channels can make to deepen their reach in the rural hinterland, the RBI has fittingly offered some operational leeway within its broader goal of achieving financial inclusion. Significant among these is the doing away of mandatory paper-based KYC (know your customer) requirements at the time of opening accounts. By allowing these banks to process KYC through digital signatures and electronic verification, the RBI has paved the way for them to undertake banking activities without necessarily setting up physical branches, thereby reducing capital expenditure. In the case of payments banks promoted by telecom companies, the RBI has gone a step further, allowing a seamless transition of mobile users into bank customers if the KYC norms are already met.
These guidelines, which go hand in hand with recent recommendations of the RBI’s internal working group on rationalisation of branch authorisation policy, clearly indicate that the central bank is willing to walk the financial inclusion talk, providing enough operational flexibility on the choice of delivery channel to different banks. Recognising the revolutionary developments in the digital and telecom platforms, the working group has recommended easing of branch definition to include all places of business, including mobile business correspondents and non-fixed locations. While the rest of the operating guidelines are not as consequential, the RBI has done well to document them, removing ambiguities around the treatment of certain norms. Micro finance institutions, en route to becoming small finance banks, have a chunk of their loans funded by bank borrowings. Taking cognisance of the fact that these players can only gradually comply with the regulatory ceiling on inter-bank borrowings applicable to conventional banks, the RBI has granted exemption on ‘legacy’ borrowings until such loans mature, up to a maximum period of three years.
At the same time, the RBI has rightly laid down certain prudential norms, necessary for a robust and secure banking and payments system. New players would be required to maintain a much higher capital adequacy ratio of 15 per cent, against the 9-odd per cent that traditional banks have to adhere to. Given the rapid pace at which small finance banks are scaling up their loans and diversifying their operations, the additional capital buffer is welcome. While payments banks do not carry any lending risk, the extra capital can help absorb losses, if any, in the initial phase of ramping up distribution network, necessitating substantial investments. The RBI has done its job. It is now up to these banks to come up with out-of-the-box ideas in order to widen inclusion and lower costs.
