  This is the third MOU signed on 7th March 2012 between the NIPFP and the Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), Ministry of Finance, Government of India to undertake the NIPFP-DEA Research Program. The research program aims to provide research input to approach several new challenges that face DEA and the ministry of Finance. The reforms framework as established under several expert committees and as conceived by the Ministry consists of several important critical pieces, the Financial Stability and Development Council ("FSDC") being one of them. Two pillars of financial stability and development not only requires an understanding the Indian macro-economy and its inter-linkages with the rest of the world, but also an analysis and policy reform for the domestic. The research program will address larger questions of fiscal, financial and monetary policy in an open-economy setting, but also provide what is perceived as the indispensable - a research oriented policy support framework for topical issues that are of concern to the Ministry.
