Select the correct answer using the code given below:
A 1 only
B 2 only
C Both 1 and 2
D Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation
The banking system of any country is
the backbone of its economy. Excessive losses to banks affect every person in
the country because the amounts deposited in banks belong to the citizens of
the country. The Non-Performing Asset (NPAs) that banks incur are mainly due to
bad loans and scams.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), in its first information report, has
shown that the State Bank of India was the most badly hit with a non-performing
asset (NPA) base of ₹9,898 crore the very sum the DHFL acquired from it.
A high NPA also reduces the net interest margin of banks besides
increasing their operating cost, these banks meet this cost by increasing
the convenience fee from their small customers on a day-to-day basis. Hence,
both statement 1 and statement 2 are correct.
According to the RBI data, corporate loans account for nearly 70% of these
bad loans, while retail loans, which include car loans, home loans and personal
loans, account for only 4%.
A study by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore has shown that poor
bank corporate governance is the cause behind rising bank scams and NPAs.
