MUMBAI (Reuters) – Boards of India’s small finance banks should remain vigilant for hidden and emerging risks that could jeopardise their long-term success, a deputy governor of the central bank said in a speech released on Monday.
“…they (small finance banks) should assess whether there is an overdependence on high-cost term deposits or bulk deposits from a limited number of institutions,” J. Swaminathan said.
The lenders should also evaluate any substantial asset exposures that could adversely impact them if they were to sour, he said.
