The new framework introduces a <strong>risk-based premium system<\/strong>, aiming to strengthen the stability of the banking sector and protect depositors more effectively. The revision also emphasizes aligning India\u2019s deposit insurance norms with international best practices recommended by the <strong>Financial Stability Board (FSB)<\/strong> and the <strong>International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Features_of_the_Overhaul\"><\/span>Key Features of the Overhaul<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the revamped framework, banks will now be categorized based on their <strong>risk profile<\/strong>. This means that banks with higher risk exposure will pay <strong>higher deposit insurance premiums<\/strong>, while stable banks will pay lower premiums. The move is designed to promote prudence among banks and incentivize better risk management practices. Additionally, the <strong>Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC)<\/strong>, which administers deposit insurance in India, will now have enhanced powers for surveillance and resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Implementation_Timeline\"><\/span>Implementation Timeline<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The RBI has outlined a <strong>phased implementation plan<\/strong> for the new deposit insurance framework. The first phase involves identifying and classifying banks based on their risk profile. Subsequent phases will roll out the risk-based premium system over a period of time, allowing banks to adjust to the new framework. The regulator has emphasized <strong>close coordination with commercial and cooperative banks<\/strong> to ensure a smooth transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_for_Depositors\"><\/span>Benefits for Depositors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For depositors, the overhaul ensures <strong>greater security of deposits<\/strong>. By linking insurance premiums to bank risk, the system reduces the likelihood of bank failures and ensures that funds are available for compensation in case of default. The maximum insured deposit limit remains unchanged at <strong>\u20b95 lakh per depositor per bank<\/strong>, but the enhanced framework strengthens the underlying financial safety net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alignment_with_Global_Standards\"><\/span>Alignment with Global Standards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The RBI\u2019s move aligns India\u2019s deposit insurance framework with <strong>global standards<\/strong>. The International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI) and Financial Stability Board (FSB) recommend risk-based premium systems to ensure financial stability. This reform positions India to meet international benchmarks and strengthens confidence among both domestic and foreign depositors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator
