I have already mentioned the first one – the emergence of a pervasive pattern of attempted manipulation of LIBOR dating back many years. This misconduct was designed either to increase the potential profit of the submitting firms or to convey a misleading picture of the relative health of such firms.
We are therefore extremely grateful that our supporting partners from the inaugural awards have again stepped forward this year. So thank you very much to the Pacific Financial Inclusion Programme and the Life Insurance Corporation of India. The Reserve Bank acknowledges your continuous support towards our financial inclusion initiatives and we look forward to yet another exciting event this year.
