CEA Anantha Nageswaran bats for fresh round of capital market reforms
The CEA pushed for macro and financial stability, stressing that "sometimes it may be necessary to forgo rapid growth opportunities in favour of stability". This will ensure that the country remains on the high growth orbit for a longer period, he indicated. He pointed at the massive spurt in credit in the early part of this century and the subsequent spike in bad loans in the banking assets, which weighed down growth in the second decade of this century.
