Correct Answer: statutory liquidity ratio


Solution : The correct answer is the statutory liquidity ratio .

The minimal percentage of deposits that commercial banks are required to keep in their vaults as cash, gold assets, or government-approved securities is known as the Statutory liquidity ratio (SLR). The banks, not the Reserve Bank of India, are required to preserve these deposits. The bank's capacity to stimulate the economy with new loans is diminished by an increase in this ratio.
