Raghuram Rajan, the former governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), had once famously remarked, 'We are neither hawks, nor doves, we are owls.' However, the RBI is not an ordinary owl. It's a very wise owl with immense powers and responsibilities.
An insider's view of the Reserve Bank of India Duvvuri Subbarao's term as the governor of the Reserve Bank of India from 2008 to 2013 was an unusually turbulent period. The global financial crisis erupted; India was in the throes of a decade-high, stubborn inflation rate, followed by a sharp depreciation of the rupee. This was also a time when questions about the breadth of the RBI's mandate, autonomy and accountability became subjects of debate in financial circles and in the media at large. Who Moved My Interest Rate is an authoritative account of the dilemmas and quandaries he confronted while leading the Reserve Bank through these extraordinary economic and political challenges.
This is the only authoritative history of the most important institution in India's economic development. Balachandran's book, meticulously researched and based on unrestricted access to the Reserve Bank of India's untapped records, completely covers the formative years after this nation's independence. Documented here (for the first time anywhere) is India's full-scale establishment of an institutional infrastructure for agricultural and long-term industrial credit and regulation banking. The book also takes a close look at India's external sector development. Finally, it explores the enduring relationship between the national government and the central bank. The depth and detail of Balachandran's work make this book a pioneering one. Students, researchers, and teachers of economics and modern Indian history--as well as bankers and journalists--will consider this volume essential.
