I'm mentioned (name misspelled) as one of the experts whom sources say have been invited to tomorrow's economic policy meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

I'm quoted in a recent Financial Express piece on some of the potential benefits from the currency swap in India.

My latest Mint column suggests that the Modi government's currency swap is best understood as part of its larger program of modernizing the plumbing of the Indian political economy.
