RBI releases the Financial Stability Report, June 2025
Today, the Reserve Bank released the June 2025 issue of the Financial Stability
Report (FSR), which reflects the collective assessment of the Sub-Committee of the
Financial Stability and Development Council (FSDC) on the resilience of the Indian
financial system and risks to financial stability.
Highlights:
Elevated economic and trade policy uncertainties are testing the resilience of
the global economy and the financial system.
Financial markets remain volatile, especially core government bond markets,
driven by shifting policy and geopolitical environment. Alongside, existing
vulnerabilities such as soaring public debt levels and elevated asset valuations
have the potential to amplify fresh shocks.
Despite an uncertain and challenging global economic backdrop, the Indian
economy remains a key driver of global growth, underpinned by sound
macroeconomic fundamentals and prudent macroeconomic policies.
The domestic financial system is exhibiting resilience fortified by healthy
balance sheets of banks and non-banks. Financial conditions have eased
supported by accommodative monetary policy and low volatility in financial
markets. The strength of the corporate balance sheets also lends support to
overall macroeconomic stability.
The soundness and resilience of scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) are
bolstered by robust capital buffers, multi-decadal low non-performing loans
ratio and strong earnings.
Results of macro stress tests affirm that most SCBs have adequate capital
buffers relative to the regulatory minimum even under adverse stress
scenarios. Stress tests also validate the resilience of mutual funds and
clearing corporations.
Non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) remain healthy with sizable capital
buffers, robust earnings and improving asset quality.
The consolidated solvency ratio of the insurance sector also remains above
the minimum threshold limit.
