Shaktikanta Das: Getting global recognition for a senior official of the country not only enhances the prestige of that person but also increases the prestige of the entire country. Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Shaktikanta Das has been privileged to receive this honour for the second consecutive year. America's famous magazine 'Global Finance' has ranked him as the top central banker globally. This award is given after a comprehensive assessment of the functioning of the heads of central banks of different countries of the world.

Honor of A+ rating

RBI proudly announced in a post on its X (formerly Twitter) account, "We are happy to inform that for the second consecutive year, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das has been given an A+ rating in the Global Finance Central Banker Report Card 2024.” Shaktikanta Das is among the top three central bank governors in the world who have received A+ rating.

Reason behind the honor

Global Finance Magazine evaluates the performance of central bank governors on various parameters and then gives them ratings. According to the magazine, Shaktikanta Das has been given this honor on the basis of success in controlling inflation, meeting economic growth targets, maintaining stability in the exchange rate and efficient management of policy interest rates.

Rating system and Das's achievement

The magazine gives ratings from A to F to the performance of central bank governors, in which A rating signifies the best performance, while F rating indicates failure. Shaktikanta Das getting an 'A Plus' rating is an indication of his even better performance.

Apart from Shaktikanta Das, Christian Ketel Thomas of Denmark and Thomas Jordan of Switzerland have also been ranked in this prestigious A Plus category. This honor is a testimony to Shaktikanta Das's excellent leadership ability and RBI's efficient policies, which have strengthened the Indian economy and enhanced India's reputation globally.
