Question 5 of 10
5. Question
2 pointsConsider the following statements about prompt corrective action by RBI
1.Invoked if NPAs rise above 10% (Asset Quality Review), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) falls below 9%, Return on Assets (RoA) falls below 0.25% (i.e. low profitability).
2.RBI imposes several restrictions on the bank such as reducing capital expenditure other than technological upgrading, making dividend payments, borrowing from other banks.
Which of the above statements are true?Correct
The RBI introduced the PCA framework in 2002 as a structured early-intervention mechanism for banks that become undercapitalised due to poor asset quality, or vulnerable due to loss of profitability. The idea is to head off problems before they attain crisis proportions. Under the PCA, the RBI ‘s role is not just advisory in nature but it can also push for changes in banks that the RBI may consider necessary to reduce the stress on the balance sheet of banks. The impact of the move is likely to be painful in the short run due to the disruption it could cause to the banks under PCA. However, over the longer run, it is likely to improve the faith of the people in the banking system and also put greater pressure on banks to clean up their books at the earliest.When each threshold is breached, there are some steps that are mandatorily taken by the RBI and some are at the discretion.
