The participants of this seminar should deliberate on and crystallize the role of each stakeholder – what banks should do, what society should do, what MFIs should do, and what FICCI/Corporates should do. Being a global seminar as UNDP is also a co-organizer, it should also be used as an opportunity to share experiences of different countries.
I wish the deliberations of this seminar a success and do hope that a contour for a meaningful partnership between banks, MFIs and communities emerge from it. From the RBI side, I would only like to assure you that we would have an open mind to any suggestions that you may have on any issue which you still perceive as a regulatory bottleneck.
