Bandhan Bank to open 551 branches in FY'23: MD Chandra Sekhar Ghosh

Bandhan Bank will open 551 more branches in the 2022-23 fiscal, as a part of the lender's focus to make its distribution stronger in other parts of India outside the eastern region, MD & CEO Chandra Sekhar Ghosh said. With the latest addition, the Kolkata-headquartered bank's branch count will exceed 6,000, he said. "India is a huge country and just one Bandhan Bank of the scale at which we are right now is not enough. So, we have to scale up even further and even faster.

Bandhan Bank to increase exposure to secured loans, says MD & CEO

Private lender Bandhan Bank will gradually increase its exposure to secured loans by enhancing advances to the housing and MSME sectors, an official said. Presently, the bank's exposure to MFI loans, which are unsecured, is 47 per cent, and the share of its advances to the housing segment is at 24 per cent, retail at two per cent and the micro, small and medium enterprises sector at 27 per cent. Bandhan Bank MD and CEO Chandra Shekhar Ghosh told PTI that "the lender will increase its exposure to secured loans and has set a target to increase disbursements to housing and medium-size MSME loans. Advances to MFIs and small-ticket MSME loans are unsecured". He said that 25 per cent of its MFI loans will be converted to formal MSME advances as the interest rates in the segment are similar to micro-credit or the loans given to self-help groups (SHGs). There will be "no impact on the profitability" of the bank as there is no difference in the interest rates, he said. In the last quarter
