While the RBI has made regulations stringent for the NBFCs, it has also recognized the utility of the NBFCs and thereby made them eligible to set up Banks and also act as an extension of Banks, where the Banks cannot reach. Due to the increase in finance space by NBFCs, the RBI's surveillance has increased. Through its various regulatory measures NBFCs are brought under stricter supervisory regime of RBI. While several steps are being taken to increase the role that the NBFCs play, norms are being strengthened to ensure that there is a strong, transparent and robust non banking financial sector.
