Ujjivan SFB Management Commentary
“…we are on track to meet our stated objective and will ensure to improve the secured book contribution to 40 per cent of the total gross advances by the end of the next financial year. New business segments like micro-mortgages, gold loans, and vehicle finance will play a meaningful role, offering an enhanced product suite to our customers and will see a significant spurt in business volumes, offsetting the impact on yields due to the rising secured book proportion,” said Sanjeev Nautiyal, MD & CEO, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank.
