My goal is to build a younger, leaner, hungrier kind of Kotak: Ashok Vaswani
As January approaches, Ashok Vaswani will begin his third year as managing director and chief executive officer (CEO) of Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd. Soon after Vaswani joined the bank, it had to start untangling itself for regulatory crosshairs. Since then, the RBI-imposed embargo on enlisting more digital customers has been lifted, it has made a couple of acquisitions, and is now in the race to acquire a big one, but Vaswani unsurprisingly sidesteps talk of IDBI Bank.

aid it wants to deploy around 30GW of wind capacity by 2030, or a third of the country’s 100GW target by then. Until recently, Adani’s turbine manufacturing was widely assumed to be a captive exercise, designed primarily to feed the group’s own rapidly expanding power needs. The Opera Energy order has punctured that assumption.

Trade doesn’t always promote peace: What could go wrong was observed and outlined 80 years ago
The year that’s drawing to a close will be remembered as the point at which US President Donald Trump overturned the global trading system that had been in place since World War II. India has been a major target of Trumpian whimsy. It is now hard to believe that the world will go back to the old multilateral trading system even after Trump exits office.

As oil, gas and gallium reshape America’s security strategy, we can expect peace prospects to brighten
The new National Security Strategy of the US seeks “strategic stability” with Russia. It declares that China is merely a competitor, that the Middle East is not central to American security, that Latin America is “our hemisphere” and that Europe faces “civilizational erasure.” India barely rates a mention; one might say, as Neville Chamberlain did of Czechoslovakia in 1938, that it’s “a faraway country... of which we know nothing.” Well, so much the better for India, which can take care of itself.The realpolitik of this document is breathtaking, yet the underlying logic is not stated.
