Risks and concerns


Having Issues with the Infrastructure


The lack of adequate and suitable physical and IT (internet technology) infrastructure is one of the main problems facing India's private banking industry.

HR (Human Resource) Challenges


Due to the demand for qualified private bankers and high turnover rates, talent is almost never in fully abundant supply.

Difficulties with Perception


Instead of serving as true portfolio managers or financial consultants, banks are viewed in the Indian context as product pushers and sellers.

Regulatory Challenges


Regulators in India are still ill-equipped to deal with the kinds of goods and services that private banking offers.

Issues with Scale


Not all Indian banks have been able to grow their private banking operations due to insufficient assets under management or clients.
