Context: RBI continues to remain unable to influence the effective lending rates in the economy. In its latest statement of intent to resolve poor monetary transmission, the RBI said it would instruct banks to switch base rate customers to the marginal cost of funds-based lending rate (MCLR) system from April 1, 2018. In April 2016, it had introduced the MCLR regime, scrapping the base rate regime, in place since 2010 UBHODEEP
MCLR is more sensitive to policy rate signals, it has been decided to harmonise the methodology of determining benchmark rates by linking the Base Rate to the MCLR Currently, under the base rate system, the lending rate at State Bank of India is 8.7%. The one-year MCLR rate is just 8.25%. This difference of 45 basis points could make a significant difference in borrowing costs Helpful especially for smaller firms and retail consumers relying on equated monthly instalments. UBHODEEP

RBI's assessment a large proportion of outstanding loans and advances continues to be linked to the base rate system. This perhaps triggered the RBI's February statement. Why ?? banks' reluctance to switch to the lower MCLR-based rates. Multiple pressures they face: Record levels of non-performing assets and losses, Significant treasury losses. UBHODEEP
RBl study Public sector banks could take a 40,000-crore hit on revenue if they allow all base rate borrowers to switch to the MCLR rate. But this creates an unfair situation as new borrowers get MCLR rates while the older ones continue on the higher base rate system. System not too different from the previous attempt by the RBI eight years ago to influence transmission by shifting to base rates from what was called a Benchmark Prime Lending Rate regime. UBHODEEP
