    Solution

    The RBI approved a risk-based deposit insurance premium framework to replace the existing flat-rate system of 12 paise per ₹100 deposit. In this model, banks with lower risk profiles pay lower premiums, while riskier banks pay higher premiums. The aim is to encourage prudent risk-taking and reduce moral hazard.
