State Bank of India (SBI), country’s largest public sector lender is planning to slash lending rates, considering RBI’s reduction in the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) by 0.25%. The bank’s asset liability committee (ALCO) will meet to take decision on the same. At present, the base rate of SBI stands at 9.75 per cent.
The bank has greatly benefited from the earlier rate cut, since growth is coming in the retail segment which is rate sensitive and ever since it has dropped home loan rate, daily sanctions has almost tripled. The bank had reduced lending rates on car and home loans by up to 0.6% in August.
Recently, SBI has unveiled its seventh branch in South Africa in the Laudium area near Pretoria. The bank’s presence in South Africa could be traced back with the establishment of the Johannesburg branch in March 1996, followed by the opening of the Durban branch later that year.
