BASEL norms 1,2 & 3

Challanges faced by global banks that lead entire world's bank to Switzerland's city called-BASEL:
1)Risk management: high NPA
2)Misuse of the banks: By gov and budinessman
3)banks transparency:banks different rate and profit and NPA should be in public domain
4)Credit allocation
SOLUTION:
led to Principal of global Banking:
1)Minimum Rjequirements
2)Supervisary review process
3)Market Discipline

Minimum Requirement:
It is the minimum level required by the banks to follow across the world. Here minimum requirement
is divided in two parts
 1)capital requirements(For banks to grow) 
2)Reserved requirements(for banks to be stable and minimise losses)
Supervisary review process:
RBI is the supervisor of banks in INDIA. so under this RBI has to make laws for license, guideline and
punishment. this is made for proper review of banking.
Market Discipline:
RBI makes it coumpusary for banks to publish all its details for public viewing.

BASEL1:   1988
AIM: "focused on Credit Risk"(focused only one among three solution stated above in principal of 
global banking)
Explaination: When bank gives loan to "X" and if there is a risk that "X" would not be able to pay back this type of loan given to"X" is called "Credit Risk".
Action: BASEL 1 launched RWA(Risk Waighted Asset)
            RWA(CAR)=(total risk)/(total asset)=atleast 8%

Drawback AKA path to BASEL 2:
>Principle of global banking has 3 principle written above. In this BASEL 1 complies with only 1) ie.
minimum requirement.
BASEL 2:   2004
AIM: to utilise all three princliple
EXTRA: increased RWA(CAR) to 9%...and also in total capital included both Tier 1(paid up capital which is 
normally owned by banks or industries whose tier 2 you are calculating) and Tier 2(secandry capital,
like debentures)

Drawback AKA path to BASEL 3:   2010
>Gobal Recession of 2008....puri duniya ki middle finger ho gyi thi.(Resession:  money supply in a
countory is less and unemployment is high).
>this recession had hit USA badly.look for my earlier article on this recession.
Action:1) RWA(CAR)=10.5% . since INDIA can't achive RWA=10.5% in 2010 and it baged time till 2020 so she 
       has to maintain RWA(CAR)=11.5% consedring the future scenerio.
       otherthan pricipal of global banking it focused on 1)liquidity and 2) Stablity.
       2)4.5% of RWA should be for common equity(Commons Equity=funds of the public...ie. public         share)
INCIDENT : destruction in faith of banking due to recession of 2008.
       3)Capital Conservation Buffer= this is simmilar to RWA(CAR), If in case bank fails and it is not 
       able to recover even from RWA(CAR) it will use CCB(Capital Conservation Buffer).
       CCB=2.5% of RWA(CAR)
       4)Counter Cyclical Buffer(Optional)=If in case economy is having lots of exchange or money             then this
       buffer is filled and if the money supply is less this buffer will be empitied. This is just to provide         addtional security.

Peasant movement during freedom struggle

Unlike the earlier peasant movements that arose from discontentment among the peasantry, the peasant movements in the twentieth century were influenced by national freedom struggle. This phase witnessed an increased involvement of middle-class, modern educated class in peasant resistance movements. This led to percolation of the idea of nationalism among the peasantry too. Gandhian Peasant Movements These movements were essentially non violent in nature. Satyagraha (fast unto death) was the defining feature of these moments to build moral pressure on britishers to accept their demands. Champaran Satyagraha 1917 : In Champaran, the peasants were agitating against the planters who were forcing the peasants to grow indigo under the exploitative tinkathia system . This system forced cultivation of indigo in 3/20th of land held by the peasant. One of their leaders, Raj Kumar Sukul invited Gandhi to resolve the issue. Gandhi led the movement by launching satyagraha and mobilised the peasan

Different perspective of Freedom-----market economy vs social stability

  What we can define we can control, perhaps this is the reason why we cant define emotion. This article is all about Freedom and its scope.   I will define freedom as this   article progresses towards required point. Pre-requisite: Cost of Happiness: happiness is not something static, it’s a dynamic concept and its directly linked to the edge of our freely floating mind . In other words if someone/something is responsible for your happiness(social/sexual/psychological) wont last long until and unless there is some desirable or at least some socially acknowledgeable value is added to the status quo. Now since this change traces the edge of our freely floating mind (and our mind tend to spread to the extreme extant of our economic/social/psychological reach) it becomes difficult or rather costly to continuously sustain this change. I call it cost of happiness   , that we have to keep paying .   Biasness: Lack of knowledge is called biasness. If you hate a particular re

Plant nutrients in the soil

Soil is a major source of nutrients needed by plants for growth. The three main nutrients are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). Together they make up the trio known as NPK. Other important nutrients are calcium, magnesium and sulfur. Plants also need small quantities of iron, manganese, zinc, copper, boron and molybdenum, known as trace elements because only traces are needed by the plant. The role these nutrients play in plant growth is complex, and this document provides only a brief outline. Major elements Nitrogen (N) Nitrogen is a key element in plant growth. It is found in all plant cells, in plant proteins and hormones, and in chlorophyll. Atmospheric nitrogen is a source of soil nitrogen. Some plants such as legumes fix atmospheric nitrogen in their roots; otherwise fertiliser factories use nitrogen from the air to make ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate and urea. When applied to soil, nitrogen is converted to mineral form, nitrate, so that plants can take it up.
