Determinants of Bank Lending Behavior in India: An ARDL Approach
Amith Vikram Megaravalli and Aniruddha Das

The purpose of this paper is to determine the lending behavior of Indian banks. Bank-specific variables like bank size, capital adequacy ratio, provision for credit risk, expense ratio and return on assets, and macroeconomic variables like GDP and inflation are considered in the study to determine the bank lending behavior. The study uses a sample of 39 public and private sector banks from 2011 to 2018 and uses Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach. The results of the study indicate that bank-specific characteristics and macroeconomic variables play a crucial role in determining bank lending behavior. The outcome of the study further puts limelight on the drivers of lending behavior and helps develop the policy in that direction, where credit management of the banks is more effective in channelizing the supply of money to the right segment, so that it can contribute to the development of the economy.

Pre-Pack Resolution of Stressed Corporate MSMEs by Banks in India
S Kaveri

Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in India experienced a steep decline in production, income and employment generation during the recent Covid-19 pandemic. Consequently, loan default on the part of stressed MSMEs has been on the rise. Appreciating the difficulties of such enterprises during the pandemic, the Government of India has recently initiated a major relief measure by amending the Insolvency Bankruptcy Code (IBC) to introduce a Pre-Pack Resolution Scheme, initially for corporate MSMEs. This is considered as an alternative route for faster and easy resolution of stressed corporate MSME debts if 66% of the financial creditors approve their plan to approach the adjudicating authority for insolvency, National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). In the absence of such a scheme, they had to go through a long-drawn-out process under IBC. While there are several benefits of the scheme, stakeholders such as corporate MSMEs, lending institutions and NCLT have to face many challenges in implementing it successfully. This paper attempts to review the scheme by discussing its background, salient features, process, regulatory aspects and other issues.

Green Banking for Sustainable Development: An Empirical Study on Customers' Perspective During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Jyoti A Jamnani and Ajay B Jamnani

Green banking is an umbrella term that refers to policies and principles that help banks to be more sustainable in terms of their economic, environmental, and social impacts. Its goal is to make banking procedures, as well as the usage of IT and physical infrastructure, as efficient and effective as possible while having zero or little environmental impact. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, businesses across the globe were badly hit. This paper is an attempt to show the awareness of green banking initiatives, regularity of usage of green services and the perceived benefits of using such services during the pandemic among customers of selected public and private sector banks in Karnataka, India. It was found that the nationwide lockdown had an impact on respondents accomplishing banking services. The results disclosed the level of awareness about green banking concept. Debit card, mobile banking and Internet banking were the most widely used green products. The findings showed three main benefits of green banking, namely, increase in UPI transactions using mobile banking, secure transactions and environmental benefits. The outcomes of this study can help the banking institutions to market their green banking services and work on their implementation.

Impact of Monetary Policy on Nigeria's Economic Growth
Ukangwa Jane Uchechi, Ikechi Victor Iheukwumere and Ogonda Gift Orokwele

One of the major objectives of the monetary policy in Nigeria is economic growth using money supply and inflation control (price stability) as a measure; but despite the various monetary regimes that have been adopted by the Central Bank of Nigeria over the years, inflation still remains a major threat to its economic growth. And it is on this premise that this study analyzes the impact of monetary policy on Nigeria's economic growth from 1981 to 2021. The study uses secondary data sourced from Central Bank of Nigeria's Statistical Bulletin (2021) for its analysis, and employs Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bound cointegration to estimate the short-run and long-run impact of the monetary policy on Nigeria's economic growth, which shows a long-run relationship. Further estimation results show that monetary policy impacted Nigeria's economic growth. The study claims that the central bank should place more emphasis on the quality-based nominal anchor (M2) for managing instruments like liquidity ratio, reserve ratio, and transaction on Treasury bills which directly affect the monetary aggregate.
