​Financials | Microfinance: Collections picking up in troubled states; Vast opportunity, yet clouded by political uncertainty

  • We recently attended the MFIN Conclave - Microfinance in Asia: A Mosaic. Based on discussions with the delegates and industry experts, the consensus is around improvement in the asset quality situation from February levels. However, in certain pockets, the situation remains grim.
  • The top-5 states, which accounted for ~50% of the AUM at the end of February, had 70%+ of the problems.
  • Borrowers are gradually coming to terms now with the importance of maintaining a good credit record - they are realizing that repayments are the only way to ensure future loans from organized financiers.
  • Amongst the larger states, Uttar Pradesh (10% of industry AUM and 20%+ problem at PAR >0DPD) is improving at a healthy pace. However, certain pockets in Maharashtra (Vidharbha region) remain areas of concern.
