RBI Mechanism

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman addressed Mindmine Summit 2022, and said many countries have evinced interest for bilateral trade in the rupee. The announcement and interest came after the RBI announced a mechanism recently. "It isn't the rouble-rupee which was in the old format. Now this (bilateral rupee trade) formulation, which I am glad the RBI has come up at a time which was so critical," said Nirmala Sitharaman.
