RBI to set up repository of lending apps to check unauthorised players

The Reserve Bank on Thursday proposed to create a public repository of digital lending apps in a bid to address the problems arising from mushrooming unauthorised players in the segment. In another significant move, the central bank proposed to introduce a facility of "Delegated Payments" in UPI to enable an individual to allow another individual to make UPI transactions.

In a bid to address the problems arising from unauthorised digital lending apps (DLAs), he said the RBI proposes to create a public repository of DLAs deployed by its regulated entities. "The regulated entities (REs) will report and update information about their DLAs in this repository. This measure will help the consumers to identify the unauthorised lending apps," Das said.

RBI to hold rates, may sound confident of reaching inflation target: Report

The Reserve Bank is expected to hold its key rates at the forthcoming policy review, but may sound more confident about reaching its 4 per cent inflation objective, a foreign brokerage said on Wednesday. The rate-setting panel may prefer to stick to the 'withdrawal of accommodation' stance of the monetary policy, HSBC said in the report on the eve of the RBI MPC's decision. "While it's a close call, we also think the policy stance will remain unchanged, even as the RBI sounds more confident than before about getting to its 4 per cent inflation target," it said, listing out the aspects it will watch out for in the document or the resolution. These include any softness in tone around increased confidence of getting to 4 per cent inflation durably, or a change in growth or inflation forecasts, and, further commentary around the use of OMO (open market operations) sales to take out excess liquidity. In the background of another member dissenting at the last policy review, the brokerage

RBI issues norms to improve safety of payment systems with fraud monitoring

The RBI on Tuesday said non-bank payment system operators will have to put in place a real-time fraud monitoring solution to identify suspicious transactional behaviour and generate alerts. Also, non-bank payment system operators (PSOs) will have to ensure that an online session on mobile application is automatically terminated after a fixed period of inactivity and customers are prompted to re-login, according to Master Directions on Cyber Resilience and Digital Payment Security Controls for non-bank PSOs. The directions have come into effect from Tuesday, but the Reserve Bank has also prescribed a phased implementation to provide adequate time to PSOs to put in place the necessary compliance structure. RBI said the directions aim to improve safety and security of the payment systems operated by PSOs by providing a framework for overall information security preparedness with an emphasis on cyber resilience. Regarding mobile payments, RBI said PSOs should ensure that an authenticat
