The company acquired its license on 9th July 2014 &has aggressive growth plans.ABHFL operates in the Rs. 11.4 trillion Indian Housing Finance market, which has grown at a steady rate of 17% CAGR over the last 3 years while reporting good asset quality despite challenges in the operating environment. While the industry is dominated by five large groups, there has been an emergence of newer entrants in niche segments like affordable housing &self-employed borrowers, given the high potential in these segments. Despite increased focus by banks, HFCs have been able to sustain their share in the mortgage market &has remained stable at ~37% as on December 2015.The nature of the HFC business (dealing largely with retail clients in the potentially sensitive area of housing/ mortgages), along with the additional regulatory &control mechanisms imposed as a result, means it is imperative that all functions &processes align &comply with sound risk management guidelines &applicable regulations/ controls proactively &judiciously. This is vital for overseeing risk &protecting interests of both the business as well as the client.While the core responsibility for this function is to control the business via robust underwriting &risk management, assisting business expansion via joint evaluation of different product/ market growth proposals with the Sales group is also an important contribution.The Credit Manager plays the role of executing risk &credit operations in line with established guidelines &norms, &securing the organization against diverse risks in local business operations via process measures &checks. This role is tasked with making sure robust &efficient creditworthiness &risk assessment. He/ She is the ears on the ground member of the Risk Group who meets every client as part of the underwriting process &also visits the property which is being funded.Therefore, he/she needs to have an understanding of the Legal &Valuation framework to be able to execute their role satisfactorily
Key Challenges
While the ABFL Mortgages group also works with retail clients in the property space, the ABHFL business is exposed to the additional Construction Risk, i.e. risk from under construction projects not getting completed as planned.ABHFL is in its inception phase as a company &in the midst of rapid growth. The Risk function must therefore be able to balance priorities of risk management &business growth efficiently, without increasing sub-prime exposures or impacting business health &sustainability.The housing space is characterized by state-wise norms &business practices, as well as varied interpretations of regulatory guidelines by different stakeholders. It is therefore essential for Risk function group members to remain up to date on business practices/ norms in their respective states/ locations &work within regulatory guidelines in a manner that minimizes business risk &also supports growth objectives.
