Page 1 CHAPTER 04 Monetary policy and liquidity operations since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic have geared towards mitigating its adverse impact on economy. Accommodative monetary policy along with other regulatory dispensations, asset classification standstill, temporary moratorium and provision of adequate liquidity were put in place in order to provide a safety net to the system. In 2021-22, some of the measures undertaken by RBI like CRR reduction reached pre-set sunset dates, liquidity has been wound down partly but remains in surplus mode and regulatory measures have been realigned. After several rate cuts in 2019-20 and 2020-21, the repo rate was maintained at 4 per cent in 2021-22. The liquidity in the system remained in surplus throughout. RBI undertook various measures, including secondary market G-sec acquisition programme, special Long-Term Repo operations, on tap targeted Long-Term Repo Operations, etc. to provide further liquidity in the system. Thereafter, RBI used Variable Rate Reverse Repo, reverse repo auctions to rebalance liquidity conditions. Reserve money and broad money supply growth in 2021-22 so far was lower than in the previous year. The reserve money growth did not fully translate into commensurate broad money supply growth due to the smaller (adjusted) money multiplier reflecting large deposits by banks with RBI under reverse repo window. Bank credit growth accelerated gradually in 2021-22 up from 5.3 per cent in the beginning of April 2021. The very latest data shows that the bank credit growth stands at 9.2 per cent as on 31 st December 2021. At the sectoral level, credit to agriculture sector continued to register robust growth and showed signs of improvement in the industry sector . Services sector credit growth, however , is yet to recover . Gross Non-Performing advances ratio of Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs) continued to decline from 11.2 per cent at end of 2017-18 to 6.9 per cent at end-September 2021. Similarly, Net Non-Performing advances ratio declined from 6 per cent to 2.2 per cent during the same period. Capital to risk-weighted asset ratio of SCBs continued to increase from 13 per cent in 2013-14 to 16.54 per cent at end-September 2021. The Return on Assets and Return on Equity for Public Sector Banks became positive in June 2020 and continued to be positive for the period ending September 2021, after recording negative profitability ratios from March 2016 to March 2020. The economic shock of the pandemic has been weathered well by the commercial banking system so far, even if some lagged impact is still in pipeline.

The repo rate which currently stands at 4 per cent is lowest in the last decade (Figure 1). Since May 2020, the policy rates have been on hold along with an accommodative monetary policy stance with forward guidance that this stance will continue as long as necessary to revive growth on durable basis while ensuring that inflation remains within the tar get (Consumer Price Index inflation of 4 per cent within a band of +/- 2 per cent).

The outlook for aggregate demand was progressively improving but capacity utilisation rate s were low . The contact intensive services were lagging behind and the recovery was uneven and required policy support. In the latest MPC meeting in December 2021, the committee pointed out that the outlook was uncertain owing to global spillovers, potential resur gence in COVID-19 infections and diver gences in policy actions and stances across the world with inflationary pressures increasing across economies. Accordingly , the MPC decided to continue monito ring the inflationary pressures, keep the policy repo rate unchanged at 4 per cent and persist with the accommodative stance. 4.3 In 2021-22 so far , the overall monetary and credit conditions remained accommodative. However , the growth rates of monetary aggregates- including Reserve money , Broad money were lower as compared to the last year . Reserve money (M0) recorded a year -on-year (Y oY) growth of 13 per cent as on 7 th January 2022, as compa red to 14.3 per cent a year ago. However , M0 adjusted for the first-round impact of changes in the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) recorded a lower growth (Y oY) of 7.7 per cent, as compared with 18.3 per cent a year ago (Figure 2). 4.4 Expansion in M0 during 2021-22 so far was driven by bankers’ deposits with the RBI from the component side, with CRR restoration in phases, effective 27 th March 2021 and 22 nd May 2021. Currency in Circulation (CIC) grew by 7.8 per cent as on 7 th January 2022, lower as compared to the previous year as precautionary demand for cash subsided (T able 2).

The outlook for aggregate demand was progressively improving but capacity utilisation rate s were low . The contact intensive services were lagging behind and the recovery was uneven and required policy support. In the latest MPC meeting in December 2021, the committee pointed out that the outlook was uncertain owing to global spillovers, potential resur gence in COVID-19 infections and diver gences in policy actions and stances across the world with inflationary pressures increasing across economies. Accordingly , the MPC decided to continue monito ring the inflationary pressures, keep the policy repo rate unchanged at 4 per cent and persist with the accommodative stance. 4.3 In 2021-22 so far , the overall monetary and credit conditions remained accommodative. However , the growth rates of monetary aggregates- including Reserve money , Broad money were lower as compared to the last year . Reserve money (M0) recorded a year -on-year (Y oY) growth of 13 per cent as on 7 th January 2022, as compa red to 14.3 per cent a year ago. However , M0 adjusted for the first-round impact of changes in the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) recorded a lower growth (Y oY) of 7.7 per cent, as compared with 18.3 per cent a year ago (Figure 2). 4.4 Expansion in M0 during 2021-22 so far was driven by bankers’ deposits with the RBI from the component side, with CRR restoration in phases, effective 27 th March 2021 and 22 nd May 2021. Currency in Circulation (CIC) grew by 7.8 per cent as on 7 th January 2022, lower as compared to the previous year as precautionary demand for cash subsided (T able 2). 120 Economic Survey 2021-22 Table 2: Growth (YoY) in Monetary Aggregates (end-March) (per cent) Item 2015-16 2016-17 ^ 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 * Currency in Circulation (CIC) 14.9 -19.7 37.0 16.8 14.5 16.6 7.8 # Cash with Banks 6.6 4.2 -2.1 21.4 15.4 4.5 10.7 Currency with the Public 15.2 -20.8 39.2 16.6 14.5 17.1 7.7 Bankers’ Deposits with the RBI 7.8 8.4 3.9 6.4 -9.6 28.5 42.0 # Demand Deposits 1 1.0 18.4 6.2 9.6 6.8 14.8 26.2 T ime Deposits 9.2 10.2 5.8 9.6 8.1 10.9 8.2 Reserve Money (M0) 13.1 -12.9 27.3 14.5 9.4 18.8 13.0 # Broad Money (M3) 10.1 6.9 9.2 10.5 8.9 12.2 9.9 Source: RBI Note: ^: March 31, 2017 over April 1, 2016 barring Reserve Money (M0), Currency in Circulation (CIC) and Bankers’ Deposits with the RBI (BD), *: As on December 31, 2021, #: As on January 7, 2022.

From the component side, aggregate deposits which is the lar gest component - has contributed most to the expansion of M3 during the year so far (Figure 4). Amongst sources, bank credit to the government was a major contributor to the increase in broad money . Banks’ higher investments in liquid and risk-free assets such as SLR securiti es and G-secs, resulted in higher net bank credit to the government. Bank credit to the commer cial sector also supplemented M3 expansion from the sources side. The Y oY credit growth for Scheduled Commercial Banks was 9.2 per cent as on 31 st December 2021 as compared to 6.6 per cent a year ago, reflecting pick-up in credit. 121 Monetary Management and Financial Intermediation 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Apr 10,20 Jun 10,20 Aug 10,20 Oct 10,20 Dec 10,20 Feb 10,21 Apr 10,21 Jun 10,21 Aug 10,21 Oct 10,21 Dec 10,21 per cent 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Apr 10,20 Jun 10,20 Aug 10,20 Oct 10,20 Dec 10,20 Feb 10,21 Apr 10,21 Jun 10,21 Aug 10,21 Oct 10,21 Dec 10,21 per cent Figure 3: Broad Money Growth (YoY) Figure 4: Aggregate Deposits Growth (YoY) Source: RBI 4.6 Money multiplier - measured as a ratio of M3 to M0 has been on the decline since 2017-18 (Figure 5(a)). As on 31 st March 2021, money multi plier (MM) stood at 5.2 from 5.6 a year ago. However , money multiplie r adjusted for reverse repo - analytically akin to banks’ deposits with the central bank - turned out to be lower at 4.6 by end-March 2021. The gap between MM and adjusted MM reflects parking of funds by banks under the reverse repo window of the RBI and to some extent a weak credit creation process. Money multiplier , however , improved slightly to 5.3 as on 31 st December 2021, while adjusted MM sta nds at 4.4 (Figure 5 (b)).

| 1. What is monetary management? |  |
Ans. Monetary management refers to the process of planning, controlling, and monitoring the money supply and interest rates in an economy. It involves various actions taken by central banks, such as setting interest rates, implementing monetary policies, and managing the circulation of money to maintain price stability and promote economic growth.
| 2. What is financial intermediation? | |
Ans. Financial intermediation is the process by which financial institutions, such as banks, credit unions, and insurance companies, facilitate the flow of funds between savers and borrowers. They act as intermediaries by accepting deposits from savers and providing loans or investments to borrowers, enabling the transfer of funds from surplus units to deficit units in the economy.
| 3. How does monetary management affect the economy? | |
Ans. Monetary management plays a crucial role in influencing the economy. By adjusting interest rates and implementing monetary policies, central banks can impact borrowing costs, investment decisions, and consumer spending. Lowering interest rates can stimulate economic activity by encouraging borrowing and investment, while raising rates can help control inflation. The effectiveness of monetary management depends on various factors, including the current state of the economy and the transmission mechanisms within the financial system.
| 4. What are the objectives of monetary management? | |
Ans. The objectives of monetary management may vary depending on the country and its economic conditions. However, some common objectives include maintaining price stability, promoting economic growth, and ensuring financial stability. Price stability aims to keep inflation in check, as high inflation can erode the purchasing power of money. Economic growth objectives focus on supporting sustainable expansion and reducing unemployment. Financial stability objectives aim to maintain the stability of the banking system and prevent financial crises.
| 5. How do financial intermediaries contribute to the economy? | |
Ans. Financial intermediaries play a vital role in the economy by facilitating the efficient allocation of funds and reducing information asymmetry between savers and borrowers. They provide various financial services, such as accepting deposits, granting loans, offering insurance, and providing investment opportunities. By pooling funds from savers and channeling them towards productive investments, financial intermediaries contribute to economic growth, job creation, and wealth accumulation. They also help manage risk, provide liquidity, and promote financial market stability.
