It further said: "In its twelfth year of operation, as Yes Bank accelerates into its next phase of growth, this new business initiative will provide further acceleration to Yes Bank's differentiated product offerings."

The AMC and trustee company will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Yes Bank, it added.

The lender said its AMC will channelise savings of retail and institutional investors in equity and debt capital markets.

"This will complement Yes Bank's retail liabilities strategy and also allow the AMC to leverage the Bank's distribution network for customer acquisition," it added.

Shares of Yes Bank were trading at Rs 730.90, up 0.79 per cent from previous close on BSE.
