ABOUT THIS BOOK

RBI Governors provides an in-depth look at the tenures of the eminent men who have held the role of the chief of the Reserve Bank of India. From its creation in the late 1930s under the guidance of experienced British administrators to the present-day reign of technocrats, the men leading the RBI have left an indelible mark on it, changing forever its systems and procedures. Some have clashed with the political leadership at various times and tried to impress their own ideas upon fiscal policy.
Filled with trivia and anecdotes from the history of the institution, this book is the ultimate primer on the people who lead one of our country’s most celebrated and powerful institutions.
