Foreign Exchange Facilities For Individuals
by Finance Indian Institute Of BankingThe year 2011 marks the twentieth anniversary of the dramatic opening up of the Indian economy. The past two decades have witnessed a huge transformation across sectors such as industry, external trade, banking and finance. This is also a period when the economy has become globalized, in terms of flows of goods and services, investments, capital, people, technology and ideas. In the area of foreign exchange the country has certainly moved away from an older paradigm of managing scarcity, to a more liberal and flexible regime. Even though, the inward FII/FDI flows in recent times started exhibiting some volatility, largely due to global macro economic disturbances, the clear picture is that the Indian forex scene is going to be one of stable reserves. The Central Bank's recent prudential moves support this theory.
