AGENDA

Capital supply/ demand for unsecured retail loans

Business model, capital planning & key risks


Summary messages (Capital supply)

• Unsecured retail lending is a $120-140B o/s market in India, with Fintechs accounting for $4-5B (3-4%). Going forward, we believe Fintechs can grow 6-7x by FY27, with need for
$2.5-3B equity infusion in base case ($5-5.5B infusion in conservative case). At a market level, Fintech currently do 40-45% of the o/s via in-house NBFC arm & rest 55-60%
coming from partner financiers (NBFCs & Banks) via FLDG & Co-lending models. Going forward, partner-based book to grow to 65-70% share, driven by a) high willingness &
availability of capital for partner financiers b) ease of scalability for Fintechs (need for lower capital from debt & equity for in-house NBFC)

– Multiple NBFCs participate in lending via Fintech partnerships, with Fullerton, IIFL & DMI finance being the top contributors. Going forward, we see NBFC capital via Fintechs growing at 50%+ driven by a) capital
supply growth for partner NBFCs (20-25% growth outlook going forward), b) increasing number of NBFCs showing willingness for Fintech partnerships, and c) increasing share of Fintech based lending in the
overall NBFC books (likely to reach 23-25% from current ~14%)

– Banks have been relatively more cautious in Fintech partnerships, with IDFC bank accounting for 70-80% contribution. However, banks like Federal, ICICI, KVB have been catching up, as Fintech books
demonstrate performance & maturity over time (with other players likely to follow suite). Given scale of Fintech financing being relatively small vs. overall bank financing ($4-5B vs. $100-105B of unsecured
retail loans from banks, $1.6T total bank advances), even a small proportion of bank financing diverting towards Fintechs can open up abundant capital supply for Fintechs

• It is critical for lending-focused Fintechs to have an in-house NBFC arm, to a) protect against extreme regulatory action with ban on FLDGs, requiring partner-based lending
to be only via co-lending, & b) safe-guard growth ambitions in case of unavailability of capital supply from partners. This would however imply need for raising capital via a)
debt (traditional avenues being large NBFCs & NCDs, with newer avenues like securitization & ECBs) & b) commensurate equity capital infusion (D/E ratio of 3-4 at an industry level)

• RBI regulation on PPI cards pose a risk to the card-based lending products from Fintechs, given the need for PPI to be funded only via bank a/c (and not via credit lines).

• Credit risk (NPAs/ DPD) is an additional risk that Fintechs need to plan for, especially the ones catering to near-prime & subprime segments (<750 credit score). Fintechs
with higher share of focus on this segment can ideally a) plan for appropriate capital provision, to plan for extreme NPA scenarios, b) pro-actively monitor collections at regular
intervals (15-day, 30-day etc.) & c) leverage tested base for cross-selling high-ticket/ long tenure loans

• Public sector banks are the largest holder of deposits, but they have seen a
decline in their share from ~73% (FY17) to ~60% (FY21) owing to strong growth
of pvt. sector banks (~16% in FY17-22 vs 5% for public sector banks)
• Borrowings from India constitute ~75% of total borrowings, this share has
increased from ~55% in FY17 as the delta between cost of borrowing in India
vs. overseas has gone down due to volatile macro-environment and high cost of

Debt
(8%)
– Borrowings from RBI and interbank borrowings constitute a smaller share and are typically
used by banks to meet capital adequacy requirements

– Borrowings from institutions are a key source for smaller banks with low base of deposits

• Reserves and surplus constitute ~90% of equity for banks:


– Pvt. Sector banks have witnessed strong growth in retained earnings (25-30% growth over

via quasi-debt instruments & alternate avenues
TO D AY CAPITAL S UP P LY

Description Tenor

Subordinated • Unsecured debt which is lower in priority to other forms of debt


Quasi-debt debt (loans or 3 years or
instruments debentures) • RBI allows subordinated debt to be used as tier 2 capital to meet capital adequacy requirements; hence typically mid-to-large NBFCs raise 3-5% of AUM as > 5 years
subordinated debt

Perpetual debt • Irredeemable debentures that bear coupon till dissolution of the firm (however, lender has an option of selling the debt in secondary market or use a put
Quasi-debt option)
instruments can have Perpetual
an option to attach a • RBI allows perpetual debt to be used as tier 1 capital; however currently low salience with NBFCs (only 2-3 of the top NBFCs have raised perpetual debt
‘kicker’ i.e., link part amounting to <2%% of total AUM)
of the coupon/
interest to share Convertible • Debentures convertible to equity after a pre-determined time period at the option of lender or automatically
price accretion debentures 1 to 5
• Used by small NBFCs to incentivize lenders with a lower risk instrument to lenders in case they are not able to raise equity (low salience currently with years
small to medium NBFCs)

External • Debt availed from foreign financial investors, typically at rates at par or slightly lower than domestic rates depending upon interest rate environment;
Alternate Commercial however increasingly expensive in the recent past due to high cost of currency hedge (increased USD/ INR volatility) 5 to 10
avenues for Borrowing years
(ECB) • ECBs are used to diversify lender risks for NBFCs e.g., in 2018 liquidity crisis, many even AAA rated NBFCs were asked to pre-pay their debt to banks by
capital resetting the floating interest rates to very high levels. Large NBFCs like Bajaj, Tata, Aditya Birla typically raise 3-6% of AUM as ECB

Securitization • PTC: Loans sold via special purpose vehicles that issues bonds to investors backed by those loans; In FY22, PTC accounted for ~45% of securitization loans,
of which vehicle loans contributed ~15%
Securitization & co- PTC, DA:
lending allows NBFCs • Direct assignment (DA): Loans sold directly to banks who take on the right to collect EMIs; used by banks as a way to grow loan book without opex or to meet Tenure
to offload part of their priority sector lending requirements; In FY22, DA accounted for ~55% of securitization volumes (lower than 65-70% seen in earlier years) and was dominated depends
balance sheet to other by mortgaged backed loans on
financier, and hence, underlying
are not direct sources • Typically used by small NBFCs as a liquidity management tool; currently, money raised via securitization can be 30-50% of total borrowings for small NBFCs
asset
of capital (~5% at an overall level)

• It is primarily re-allocation of capital and has limited-indirect impact on overall capital supply (promotes more external capital raising by larger NBFCs)

Co-lending • NBFC’s tie up with banks to jointly lend to a customer on both their books
-
• Co-lending is typically done by smaller NBFCs as a way to circumvent lack of capital to meet demand; currently, <15% of AUM for small NBFCs are under co-
lending arrangements
Note: Quasi-debt instruments are defined as securities that have one or more of the following features: returns linked to stock prices (via a kicker), repayment priority above common equity but lower than common
debt, have a pre-determined rate of minimum return, are convertible into equity Source: Market participant interviews, RBI, secondary research

• FLDG expected to continue with no cap (for • Cap on FLDG arrangement; banks/ NBFCs • Complete curb on FLDG arrangements (only

What we need to believe • Healthy capital supply from banks/ NBFCs • Adequate capital supply from existing capital • Capital supply constrained for banks/ NBFCs,
and via NCDs, along with additional supply market sources; Limited traction for ECBs, in turn affecting their willingness to partner
via securitisation, ECBs etc. securitisation etc. with Fintechs

Regulatory Environment NA Regulatory environment is favourable for RBI issues notices to restrict share of FLDG Fintech operations are highly regulated and RBI

AGENDA

Capital supply/ demand for unsecured retail loans

Business model, capital planning & key risks


Unsecured PL is a competitive space served by multiple archetypes; Pure-play lenders
need to build acquisition hooks, breadth of FS products & lower cost of funds to win
Banks & NBFCs PSPs (UPI/QR players) Fintech players
P2P lenders Aggregators/ Fintech lenders
(PL/ LOC/ BNPL/ Neo-cards)

Examples

Operating model • Typically underwrite customers • Offers personal loans as cross-sell • Lenders choose which borrowers to • Offer loans via direct digital
based on traditional models (require product to customers within platform fund based on risk profile and marketing or via tie-ups (corporates,
access to a credit history and a and earns commissions via interest rate etc.)
relatively higher credit score) partnerships with lending companies
• Manage acquisition as well as risk • Manage cust. sourcing, underwriting
• Benefit from high brand recall, • Brand recognition with high profiling of borrower & loan servicing
especially for credit products customer engagement and payment
infrastructure acts as advantage

Key parameters ->

Typical GTM play • ETB customers with 750+ cc • In-platform customers with steady • Millennials (25-35 years) with low/ no credit history wherein credit-worthiness
transaction history (650+ cc) is assessed by alternate data points (600-750 cc)

Key risks across regulations, capital supply, asset quality exists for Fintechs, but can
be mitigated to some extent

Description Potential mitigation avenues


A Regulatory Risks – Scrutiny on FLDG cover to NBFCs/ Banks: RBI has been closely monitoring increasing – Co-lending arrangements; Capital
level for FLDG arrangements between Fintech & Banks/ NBFCs. Going forward, there may margins/ collateral commitments
be more scrutiny in case FLDG reaches high levels commensurate to risk-sharing,
involving the end-financier in u/w
> Select instances of RBI explicitly disallowing financiers from participation in FLDG
arrangements with Fintechs
– PPI card loading via credit lines: Recently, RBI circular to non-bank PPI issuers, – Need for bank account creation for
impacting PPI loading, potentially impacting Neocard/ BNPL players PostPe, Slice, Uni, etc.- all users
details on subsequent pages
> Could lead to user drop-offs,
> Extension to Bank-PPI issuers (e.g. SBM) likely going forward increase in # of funds transfers,
increased complexity in loan
reporting with Bureaus
Capital supply – Potential capital constraint from NBFC partners: NBFCs are investing in own tech – Diversification of partner base
B constraint capabilities and may captive fintech NBFCs as competitors, potentially to an overall across NBFCs & potentially banks
reduction in capital flow from NBFCs, in an extreme scenario (given banks being selective in
getting in co-lending partnerships)
– Equity capital infusion in in-house
– Capital constraint on in-house NBFC: Potential issues in raising capital for in-house
NBFCs
NBFC from larger NBFCs and other debters

Asset quality- – High credit risk/ NPAs: Potential credits risks & higher than expected NPA in newer – Investments in u/w & collections
C NPAs/ credit risk segments (NTC customers, blue collar/ gig economy workers, T2/ T3 cities), less diversified capabilities; leverage existing base
than a typical bank/ NBFC (tested) for cross-selling
– Cautious approach balancing
growth with asset quality

A The new circular could have implications for Fintechs that are sourcing credit-line via
NBFCs to load the pre-paid instrument
RBI CIRCULAR PRELIMINARY

20th June – RBI notification to non-bank PPI issuers Potential Implications


“PPIs shall be permitted to be loaded/ reloaded by cash, debit to a bank • Fintech players: Consumer lending fintech players (BNPL, neocards, etc.)
account, credit and debit cards, PPIs (as permitted from time to time) and may not be able to offer credit line via PPIs; Potential pivots include
other payment instruments issued by regulated entities in India and shall be in
– Banking partner can open bank accounts for all users post due KYC and transfer
INR only” money in PPI through these accounts

– Partnering with traditional banks for co-branded card issuance


“PPI-Master Direction (MD) does not permit loading of PPIs from credit
lines. Such practice, if followed, should be stopped immediately.” – Acquiring an NBFC-license and credit card license

– Offer other lending products such as personal loans, BNPL (non-card based)

Applicability
• NBFCs: Might see impact on interest income earned on funds routed
through ‘rented’ PPIs
• The notification impacts:
– Fintech players (neo-card players such as Slice, Uni etc.) that are sourcing credit line • Banks that lend PPI licenses might lose out on transaction fees earned
from non-banks (i.e., NBFCs) from fintech partners
– NBFCs who fund credit lines for fintech players

– Banks who lend PPI licenses to fintech players (e.g., SBM, Federal Bank)
• Traditional banks: New regulation could potentially reduce competition for
traditional banks in the consumer lending, credit card and BNPL spaces

The notification is recent with limited insight into exact guardrails/exceptions and implementation roadmap - to become clearer over the next few weeks

Case study- Bajaj (1/6): Key success factors/ learnings from Bajaj model

Wide cross-category play • Wide range of product offerings for customers, incl. consumer B2C finance (e.g., personal loans) and customer B2B2C
finance (e.g., in-store financing and web-based point-of-sale)
– Driving scalability by enabling funneling of customers acquired through small ticket size products (e.g., consumer durables) into larger ticket size
loans, (e.g., personal loans)

Robust Execution • Strong geography, department and employee-level incentives driving robust execution to achieve company-wide targets
– Quarterly and annual targets assigned to each vertical/ department, driving strong department-level incentives to perform
– Monthly variable pay for 90%+ employees, with bonuses up to $7 per case, incentivizing strong employee performance on key metrics (e.g., with
significant scope for promotion based on performance;
– Regular check-ins of low performing departments with the leadership team to enable performance turnaround

• Collection network & efficiency: ~98% collection efficiency achieved via large collection teams driving pan-India reach,
with strong incentives depending on customer credit score and penalties allotted for low collection rates

Strong offline presence


• Large sales teams driving strong offline presence, enabling Bajaj Finance to tap into markets with limited online presence,
significantly increasing the overall TAM

Differentiated underwriting • Deep experience in lending driving strong understanding of default risk based on customer buying habits, enabling lending
at scale despite limited data (e.g., by predicting riskiness based on purchases from select retailers)
– Also enables higher approval rates vs traditional banking peers such as HDFC bank, incentivizing retailer onboarding

Diverse sources of capital • High resilience due to diverse sources of capital, driving lower risk to capital supply during a crisis
– Sources of capital include borrowings from Banks and related parties (~30%), Debt securities (~29%), Equity (23%), Public deposits (~16%),
Subordinated debt (~3%)
