NATIONAL BANK FOR FINANCING INFRASTRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT The need for establishing a dedicated financial institution to address the long-term infrastructure financing requirements in India was realised considering the nation’s GDP growth objectives and the role of infrastructure development towards the same. In response to this need, the National Bank for Financing Infrastructure and Development Act, 2021 was introduced, as it denotes the return of Development Financial Institutions (DFIs) in the country after a few decades. The Act subsequently received the assent of the President on March 28, 2021 and has come into force effective April 19, 2021. Reserve Bank of India (RBI) vide its letter dated March 8, 2022 has advised that NaBFID shall be regulated and supervised by RBI as an All India Financial Institution (AIFI) under sections 45L and 45N of the RBI Act, 1934, respectively. Its logo is a wordmark of its acronym in blue with ‘a’ in lowercase.

Consequent to the revision in the composition of share capital between Government of India and RBI, NABARD today is fully owned by the Government of India.

RESEVE BANK OF INDIA The emblem of Reserve Bank of India has Royal Bengal tiger standing in front of a palm tree. The tiger was referred from the statue at the gate of Belvedere, Kolkata. These are ensconced by ‘ भारतीय रिजर्व बैंक ’ on top and ‘RESERVE BANK OF INDIA’ at the bottom. This has been completed by two concentric circles with thin and thick lines. Obviously, this design is very formal and emphasises the ‘Government status of the bank’ with Indian motif which resembles a heraldry.
