It was her first press briefing at the IMF World Banks Spring Meeting. She clearly stressed for the need for a full speed recovery going forward.

What RBI governor Subbarao said...

Subbarao stressed on quantitative controls on capital flows are distorting and inefficient, but effective in the short term. Quantitative capital controls, in the form of the quantity of external commercial borrowings (ECBs) that India allows into the country, are effective only in the short term, but they are distorting and inefficient. Therefore, he said that we should look at other kinds of capital controls.

He also mentioned about the kind of price controls which are currently available. These are issues he raised like whether there is the need to look at capital controls for countries going forward. Also, he said that India is currently grappling with the twin problem of lower forex reserves and rupee depreciation.

So, therefore there is a need to ensure that if the regulator intervenes in the market, it must be successful.

So, the regulators must be careful when it comes to forex intervention. However, a lot of questions raised by the RBI governor at the session on the issue of capital account management.
