DEFINITION:-
• Reverse repo rate is the rate of interest at which
the central bank borrows funds from other banks.

13. • It is also for the short duration
• The banks deposit their short term excess funds.
• Banks earn high interest.

14. WHAT HAPPENS IN REVERSE REPO
• Reverse repo rate is used by
the central bank to absorb
liquidity from the economy.
• When it feels that there is
too much money floating in
the market, it increases the
reverse repo rate.
• The central bank will pay a
higher rate of interest to the
banks.

15. • A hike in this rate makes it more lucrative for
banks to park funds with the rbi.
• An increase in the reverse repo rate means that
the rbi will borrow money from the banks at a
higher rate of interest.
• Deposit of money becomes risk free.

16. Repo and Reverse repo in India:
• Regulation of the repo market is
a direct responsibility of RBI.
• To increase liquidity, RBI buys
government securities from
banks under repo.
• To decrease liquidity, RBI sells
the government securities to
banks.

17. • The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) is called
up by a group of people, they meet up to decide
if and how the repo rate should be changed.

the rate at which liquidity is injected in the
banking system by rbi.
Whereas reverse repo rate signifies the rate at
which the central bank absorbs liquidity from
the banks.
