The government has suspended Sharad Ojha, the Chairperson of the Nepal Insurance Authority (NIA), following serious allegations about his qualifications and conduct.

🧾 Why Was He Suspended?
A cabinet meeting on July 14 formed a three-member probe committee to investigate Ojha’s competency and actions in office. As per the Insurance Act 2079, once such a committee is formed, the chairperson is automatically suspendedduring the investigation.

🔍 The committee is led by former Justice Krishna Giri, with members Kapil Dev Oli and Jiwan Prakash Sitaula—all experienced in law and finance.

Ojha, appointed earlier this year, is facing multiple allegations, including:
🔸 Submitting fake experience certificates to secure the position
🔸 A writ petition filed at the Supreme Court questioning the validity of his documents
🔸 A separate probe by the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA)
Sources suggest that the government is actively considering his removal, depending on the outcome of these investigations.

Under Section 12 of the Insurance Act:
- The government can dismiss the Chairperson for misconduct, incompetence, or dereliction of duty
- But it must first form a three-member probe committee, headed by a retired High Court judge — which has now been done
- The Chairperson is automatically suspended once the investigation begins

📍 Who is Sharad Ojha?
- Hails from Kanchanpur, Sudurpaschim Province
- Has a background in journalism
- His appointment was reportedly backed by NC President Sher Bahadur Deuba

Governor Dr. Biswo Nath Poudel has just unveiled the 59th Monetary Policy — his first since taking office — and it’s packed with major updates aimed at reviving credit demand, boosting investor confidence, and modernizing the banking system.

Here’s what you need to know — broken down simply:
💰 Margin Loan Limit Increased
Good news for stock market investors!
➡️ The individual margin loan cap has been raised from Rs. 15 crore to Rs. 25 crore.
This move comes after repeated requests from the investor community and is expected to improve liquidity in the capital market.

📉 Interest Rates Eased
To inject more money into the economy, NRB has lowered key rates:
Bank rate: 6.5% ➝ 6%
Policy rate: 5% ➝ 4.5%
Lower corridor limit: 3% ➝ 2.75%
This means loans may get cheaper — making it easier for businesses and individuals to borrow.

🏠 Relief for Real Estate Sector
Struggling real estate developers? NRB now allows banks to restructure loan repayments for housing and construction companies, offering them more time and flexibility.

Credit Access Simplified
Despite low interest rates, loan demand has been sluggish.
This policy aims to ease loan procedures and revise lending criteria, making credit more accessible to individuals and small businesses.

🏦 Bank Licensing & Classification
NRB may reopen licensing for new commercial banks — a first since 2010.
Foreign banks may soon enter Nepal’s retail banking space.
Banks will now be classified based on risk and governance, with top performers enjoying greater autonomy under self-regulation.
🔁 Working Capital & Priority Lending Reforms
Expect:
Revised working capital loan guidelines
Simplified interest rate control
Reassessment of priority sector lending to ensure funds reach productive sectors.

Support for Foreign Investment
To encourage FDI, capital inflow rules will be relaxed, supporting the goals of the federal budget and helping open up Nepal’s economy.

📲 Digital & Inclusive Banking
NRB will soon roll out neo-bank and asset management frameworks.
Policies for small borrowers and financial inclusion will be introduced.
A formal review of past bank mergers is also on the agenda.

Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) Governor Biswo Nath Poudel has raised serious concerns over the growing amount of non-performing loans (NPLs) in Nepal’s financial system — especially in SMEs and the agriculture sector.
With the monetary policy for FY 2082/83 on the way, NRB is now considering new measures to recover these loans and protect the economy from further damage.

🔍 Quick Breakdown: What’s Happening?
🧾 NPLs (bad loans) have soared to Rs. 289.56 billion — up Rs. 95.80 billion from last year.
📈 That’s a jump from 3.98% to 5.24% of the total loan portfolio.
🏦 Some banks like Himalayan Bank, Kumari Bank, and Nepal Investment Mega Bank have NPLs crossing 6% — a worrying sign.
🏚️ Non-banking assets (like foreclosed property) also rose by 63.45% in one year — now totaling Rs. 45.11 billion.

🚨 Why This Matters
These rising bad loans are forcing banks to:
- Stop lending to productive sectors.
- Park their money in NRB’s short-term instruments (instead of helping businesses grow).
- Struggle with loan recovery in rural areas, where repayment is below 50%.
- Even though interest rates have dropped to a 3-year low (~6.48%), lending hasn’t picked up.

Governor Poudel made it clear:
📌 The monetary policy won’t just focus on big businesses.
🔁 It will also prioritize cleaning up bad loans in the SME and agriculture sectors.
The goal?
✅ Get banks to lend more productively
✅ Rebuild rural repayment systems
✅ Reduce financial system risk
✅ Revive cash flow across the economy
