RBI revamps deposit insurance with risk-based premiums!

The Reserve Bank of India is shaking things up! Starting April 1, 2026, they're ditching the old flat-rate deposit insurance model from 1962. Instead, banks will pay premiums based on their risk level, with discounts for the strongest banks. This change aims to encourage better risk management and save costs. Get ready for a new era of banking premiums!
