Mumbai, Oct 22 (KNN) The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has asked the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to open a separate department for small and medium enterprises (SME) financing to ensure the availability of credit at affordable rates to this sector.
During a meeting with RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan here, Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) said there was a need for municipal corporations to support fundraising activities.
It said the top bank should create a framework for developing a liquid municipal bond market in India as it would allow civic bodies to raise money for 10-20 years, which is ideal for urban infrastructure financing.
