Cleaner balance sheets, regulatory support and strong growth prospects helped Indian private banks attract over $6 billion in foreign capital, with more deals expected in 2026.
Leading non-banking financial company (NBFC) Shriram Finance on Friday said Japan-based MUFG Bank would invest Rs 39,618 crore, or $4.4 billion, to acquire a 20 per cent stake on a fully diluted basis through a preferential issue of equity shares.
Mizuho Financial Group has an alliance with the Rs 8,500 crore (Rs 85 billion) Tata Capital, the financial services arm of the Tata group.
Apart from SBI, the consortium will include leading entities like Citibank, Standard Chartered, BNP Paribas, JP Morgan, Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ and Mizuho Financial Group, a source closely connected to the development told PTI. The country's largest lender is also in talks with two-three public sector banks to be a part of the consortium, the source said. The company reported a loss of $12.7 billion for the fiscal ended December 30, 2006.
