Prime Minister to Interact with Bankers during Bankers Retreat; Two Day Bankers’ Retreat called ‘Gyan Sangam’ to be held in Pune on 2nd and 3rd January, 2015 to Prepare a Blue Print of Reform Action Plan for Banking Sector |
The Government of India is conscious of the fact that Banking Sector, particularly Public Sector Banks (PSBs), require some major reforms. While the major points of reform are being discussed on many occasions, the fine print of reforms needs to be outlined. It is important that all the stake holders come together and prepare the outline of such a blue print. With a view to have wider consultation with major stake holders, the Department of Financial Services (DFS), Ministry of Finance is planning to organise a top level “Retreat for Banks and Financial Institutions” to be called “ज्ञानसंगम” at National Institute of Banking Management (NIBM)/CAB, Pune, Maharashtra on 2nd and 3rd January, 2015.

The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will also be present at this Retreat on the second day in the Concluding Session.
2. The objectives of this retreat are as follows:-
(i) To create a platform for formal and informal discussions around the issues which are important for banking sector reforms.
(ii) To achieve a broad consensus on what has gone wrong and what should be done both by banks as well as by the Government to improve and consolidate the position of PSBs.
(iii) To get some out of box ideas from prominent experts in the field as also from the top level managers attending the retreat.
(iv) The final objective would be to prepare a blue print of reform action plan once adopted which could then be implemented by the banks as well as by the Government.
