Outlook
- Credit growth in the industry is gradually picking up and becoming more broad-based.
- Loan segments are showing efficiency in collection trends.
- There is an improvement in credit-deposit ratios, and faster re-pricing of loans is leading to an expansion in net interest margins.
- Incremental credit costs could be lower as many private banks have up-fronted a large portion of provisioning requirements.
Tailwinds
- Sustained growth in market share in deposits and assets
- A bounce back in economic activity with strong credit demand
Key risks
- Sharper-than-expected hikes in policy rates, which could lead to higher treasury losses
- Deposit growth lagging credit growth
- A slowdown in credit demand from corporates, which could lead to lacklustre systemic credit growth
