Three weeks back, I wrote about the deposit insurance system in India. While that guide served as a ready reckoner, there’s nothing better to drive the point home than a real case study. One such case study — and a live one at that — involves Saraswat Bank’s takeover of South Indian Cooperative Bank (SICB). You can read-up on how the deposit insurance system is being invoked and utilized in this article published in the Economic Times.
Awareness Fridays is my new initiative to spread awareness on topics relevant to personal finance — every Friday. I urge you to take some time off and absorb this information — it’s pretty useful. And, as always, do spread the word if you find this useful.
