In an exchange filing made after market hours yesterday, Spandana Sphoorty Financial informed that CRISIL Ratings has assigned its 'CRISIL A/Stable' rating to the long-term bank facility of the company worth Rs 3500 crore.

CRISIL Ratings said that the rating factors in the established market position and long track record of the company in the microfinance sector in India with regional diversity in asset base, sound risk management policies, healthy capitalisation and above-average profitability.

These strengths are partially offset by average resource profile, inherent susceptibility of the microfinance business to socio-political issues and the modest credit risk profiles of borrowers, and low stability in senior management.

Separately, Spandana Sphoorty said that its board will meet on Saturday, 17 July 2021, to consider and approve, the issue and offer of non-convertible debentures on a private placement basis.
