Introduction
The Indian Institute of Banking & Finance (IIBF), established in 1928, works with the
mission:
"To develop professionally qualified and competent bankers and finance professionals through
education, training, examination, consultancy, counselling, and continuing professional
development."
One of the Institute’s key objectives is to promote research in banking and finance covering
operations, products, instruments, and processes — and to encourage innovation and
creativity among finance professionals. Launched in 2004–05, Micro Research is an annual
essay-style competition for IIBF members. It invites bankers to present their original
ideas, insights, and best practices on topics selected by the Institute’s Research Advisory
Committee.
