How safe are small finance banks?
According to the AU Small Finance Bank website, "Like other types of banks in India, the RBI regulates and governs small finance banks. Therefore, all the banking norms, such as Statutory Liquidity Ratio Requirements, Cash Ratio Reserve Requirements, etc., apply to them. Moreover, the RBI also defines aspects like Eligibility Criteria and Mandatory Promoter Contribution for SFBs. In other words, there are stringent regulations that SFBs must adhere to for their operations. As the RBI regulates the segment, SFBs are as safe as any other type of bank."#sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;} .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;} #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important} #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;}
