Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has imposed business restrictions on Edelweiss Financial Services’ Subsidiaries. The central bank has asked Edelweiss Financial Services’ subsidiary -- ECL Finance (ECL) to cease and desist from undertaking any structured transactions in respect of its wholesale exposures, other than repayment and/or closure of accounts.
Besides, RBI has asked Edelweiss Financial Services’ subsidiary -- Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company (EARCL) to cease and desist from acquisition of financial assets, including security receipts (SRs) and reorganising the existing SRs, into senior and subordinate tranches. Both the actions are with immediate effect.
The RBI found that ECL had indulged in a slew of wrong practices, including submission of incorrect details of its eligible book debts to its lenders for computation of drawing power, non-compliance with loan to value norms for lending against shares.
In the case of EARCL, the violations included not placing the Reserve Bank's supervisory letter issued after the previous inspection for 2021-22 before the company's board, non-compliance with regulations pertaining to settlement of loans and sharing of non-public information of its clients with group entities.
Edelweiss Financial Services is primarily engaged in the business of rendering merchant banking services. The company operates in two segments - agency business and holding company activities.
