If every country currency started at the same time with a 1 to 1 exchange rate to others, you could say that since that time, a country with a more expensive currency has had a stronger economy, more or less.

However, this is not the case. Exchange rates are fixed at various times in history and they can change at any moment if the government decides to do it.

For instance, for those two currencies, here are the exchange rates to the US dollar over some years:

"Currency Code 2000 1990 1980 1970 1960 1950

Indian Rupee INR 44.942 17.505 7.8629 7.5 4.7619 4.7619

Japanese Yen JPY 107.76 144.79 226.74 360 360 361.1 "

Source:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_historical_exchange_rates

This gives following value of the Indian rupie in yen over the years:

2000 1990 1980 1970 1960 1950

2.40 8.27 28.84 48.00 75.60 75.83

So if one Indian rupie is 2.40 yen in 2000, it was 75.83 yen in 1950. Since that time, it has always lost in value in comparison to the yen.

Function of integrated treasury of bank?

Treasury function was restricted to fund or liquid management. Fund management includes maintaining adequate cash balances to meet the daily requirements, implementing the surplus funds in other operations, sourcing the funds to even the gaps in cash flow. The treasury departments in banks are responsible to meet the Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR) and invest the funds in securities under Statutory Liquid Ratio (SLR). Treasury basically deals with short-term cash flows(less than one year), but investment in some securities exceeds more than one year. Integrated treasury came into existence as a result of financial reforms, the most important being the deregulation of rupee and partial convertibility of rupee. Rupee is freely convertible on current account. Due to the relaxations of RBI in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), rupee is now partially convertible on capital account. Banks are permitted a larger limit in terms of their net worth, and overseas borrowing and lending. The functions of integrated treasury are not restricted to traditional functions. The major functions of integrated treasury are as follows: . Performing reserve management, which involves meeting CRR and SLR obligations. . Deploying surplus funds in securities which have low risk and earn profits. . Performing global cash management. . Providing effective and efficient merchant services. . Improving the profit by exploring market opportunities in money market, securities market and forex market. . Assisting the banks in Asset-Liability Management (ALM). . Managing market risk for the entire bank.
