It discusses critical themes such as credit, retail banking, digital banking, information technology, international banking, treasury and risk management, compliance, rural banking, co-operative banks, NBFCs, differentiated banks, and sustainable finance. By offering granular insights into these areas, the Year Book equips readers with the tools and understanding necessary to effectively navigate the regulatory landscape and integrate new guidelines into daily operations.
Beyond regulatory developments, the IIBF Year Book | 2025 also features sections on legal changes, economic shifts, emerging trends, and significant speeches or perspectives that have shaped the BFSI sector.
