The Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 provides the overarching legal framework for the deployment of reserves in different foreign currency assets and gold within the broad parameters of currencies, instruments, issuers, and counterparties. The guiding objectives of foreign exchange reserve management in India are similar to those of many central banks in the world. The essential legal framework for reserve management is provided in sub-sections 17 (6A), 17(12), 17(12A), 17(13), and 33 (6) of the above Act.
