Will banks employ this year?

No doubt Indian Private/Govt Banks are better protected as compared to their foreign peers Operating in India, thanks in part to RBI policies and part to protected environment in which they operate. However, fallen US biggies have been major source of funds in sevaral ways to our economy/banks. Secondly, raising interest rates and lower liquidity will impact balance sheets of most banks and asset portfolios are expected to exhibit some strain. So limited recruitment in some key positions is going to be the way forward. Banks will try to avoid recruitment and internal movements will be the order of the day.
