Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1, , course: Bachelor of Commerce, language: English, abstract: After the horrible experience of the great financial crisis of 2008, the world has now become more anxious and serious about the existence, contribution, magnitude, significance and risks of the non-banking financial sector (NBFS). The sector was neglected from the beginning either by default or by deliberate choice but now the sector has enhanced attention, monitoring and regulation as a post-crisis lesson. In this context, the raising of boundaries of non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) came up with the risk of evolution of shadow banking. However, the concept of ‘shadow banking’ came into existence in 2007; when Paul McCulley coined the term ‘shadow bank’. Shadow banking includes credit intermediation involving entities (NBFCs) and activities (fully or partially) outside the regulated banking system of any country.

In the developing economies like India, shadow banking plays a gainful role in credit delivery and financial inclusion. They play substitute as well as a complementary role for commercial banks as they able to fulfill the needs of borrowers outside the preview of the regulated banking system. However, shadow banking becomes very risky because it operates outside the regulated banking system and financial intermediation activities are undertaken with less transparency and regulation than the conventional banking. Up to certain level, it helps the financial system to grow; but beyond it, may prove dangerous. This paper focuses on the concept of shadow banking and its prevailing structure and effects in India.
