RBI permits banks to hire ex- officials for internal audit

With banks facing shortage of experienced staff for internal audits, the Reserve Bank of India ( RBI) on Thursday allowed them to hire their retired officials for up to three years for assistance in conducting “Risk Based Supervision ( RBS)”.
RBI has also prescribed certain conditions for such hirings in the notification.
Each bank, it said, should formulate, with the approval of their Board of Directors, a policy to engage the services of its retired personnel for a maximum tenure not exceeding three years in the areas where it does not have enough expertise.
“The policy should inter alia include the terms of engagement, review of performance, termination of services...,” it said.
Further, banks need to ensure that the retired personnel so engaged work under the close supervision of the management of the bank and the final sign- off of the audit reports would be the responsibility of the serving bank officials.

External spillovers likely to hit India's financial system: RBI report

  While India’s growth remains insulated from global headwinds mainly due to buoyant domestic demand, the domestic financial system could, however, be impacted by external spillovers, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) said in its half yearly Financial Stability Report published on Monday.Furthermore, the rising global trade disputes and intensifying geopolitical hostilities could negatively impact the domestic growth outlook and reduce the demand for bank credit, which has decelerated sharply. “Moreover, it could also lead to increased risk aversion among investors and further corrections in domestic equity markets, which despite the recent correction, remain at the high end of their historical range,” the report said.It noted that there is some build-up of stress, primarily in financial markets, on account of global spillovers, which is reflected in the marginal rise in the financial system stress indicator, an indicator of the stress level in the financial system, compared to its p...
