category. They specialize in making term loans. There are three other NBFI, viz. LIC, GIC and UTI. Out of
these three, only UTI is a pure NBFI. There are provident funds and post offices, which mobilize savings
in a big way. A large number of these institutions are public sector undertakings

private-enterprise investment in developing countries around the world, through both loans and direct

WHAT IS OPEN MARKET OPERATION?

Open market operations (OMO) refers to a central bank buying or selling short-term Treasuries and
other securities in the open market in order to influence the money supply, thus influencing short term
interest rates.
Buying securities adds money to the system, making loans easier to obtain and interest rates decline.
Selling securities from the central bank's balance sheet removes money from the system, making loans
more expensive and increasing rates.
These open market operations are a method the Fed uses to manipulate interest rates.
