YES Bank to increase retail book
In an interview with Business Standard, Rajan Pental, executive director of YES Bank, stated that the bank can increase its retail book by 30% if it so desires because the platforms are ready, but they want to do so in a structured manner.
The bank is also shifting its focus from low-yielding secured retail products to medium-yielding ones, while ensuring that its high-yielding unsecured retail portfolio does not exceed 25% of the overall retail book, as the bank considers anything above 25% of the unsecured book to be "risky".
