Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Most standard indicators suggest that India’s reserve stock is more than adequate. The rapid stockpiling of foreign exchange reserves implies that the RBI has been leaning-against-the-wind to keep down the value of the Indian Rupee. As India has become more export-oriented it has become keenly aware of the need to remain price competitive in the short run, This situation dictates that there may be potential benefits from pursuing a more coordinated approach to dealing with monetary and exchange rate policies in the region. [This is an abbreviated version of a working paper by the authors (see Rajan and Gopalan, 2010).]
