SBI chief flags rising risks from rapid growth in digital finance

State Bank of India Chairman C S Setty on Monday cautioned that rapid growth in digital finance, platform lending and data-driven underwriting is creating new vulnerabilities in the financial system, and said resilience must evolve alongside innovation. Speaking at the CII Annual Business Summit, Setty said banks and financial institutions must continue strengthening governance frameworks, capital buffers, cybersecurity capabilities and risk management systems. He said as the banking system undergoes technological transformation, India's financial architecture would have to remain resilient with trust embedded in all innovation. "As India's financial system expands in scale and complexity, trust must remain its foundational principle. Innovation without trust cannot sustain itself. The rapid growth of digital finance, platform lending and AI-driven underwriting creates new opportunities but also new vulnerabilities," he said at a session on 'The Future of Financing'.

India to grow 6.6% in FY27; needs package on BoP front: SBI report

India's economy is projected to grow at 6.6 per cent in 2026-27 fiscal while a comprehensive package is required on the Balance of Payments (BoP) front amid rupee depreciation and higher oil price, an SBI Research report said on Monday. The report said the rupee, which has weakened much in the recent period "through clouds on external macros, as also unabated speculative forces" needs structural changes on BoP front, stream lining the guard rails of import substitution, export competitiveness, integration in global value chain. The rupee has breached the 95-mark against the US dollar that has strengthened due to rising global uncertainties, triggered by the West Asia conflict. "There is now a felt need to put in place a comprehensive package to address Balance of Payments (BoP)," SBI Research said and made a strong case for diaspora bonds. With the country's macro fundamental getting distorted as Brent crude prices hover above USD 100, and transport and insurance costs spiking, the

Mcap of 4 most valued firms erodes by ₹1 trn, SBI biggest laggard

The combined market valuation of four of the top-10 most valued firms eroded by Rs 1 lakh crore last week, with State Bank of India taking the biggest hit, amid a range-bound trend in equities. Last week, the BSE benchmark Sensex climbed 414.69 points or 0.53 per cent, and the NSE Nifty went up by 178.6 points or 0.74 per cent. "Indian equity markets witnessed a volatile and range-bound week, with sentiment remaining cautious despite intermittent recovery attempts. Early optimism driven by hopes of de-escalation in the Middle East and easing oil prices faded quickly as renewed tensions between the US and Iran resurfaced," Ponmudi R, CEO - Enrich Money, an online trading and wealth tech firm, said. While Bharti Airtel, State Bank of India, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Larsen & Toubro faced erosion from their valuation, Reliance Industries, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Bajaj Finance, Hindustan Unilever and Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) were the gainers from the pack. ...
