Know before investing

Strengths

2
  1. The company is mainly focused on providing loans to rural and semi-urban customers. As a result, the company witnessed a notable growth in the number of customers to 3.93 million as of March 31, 2023,

  2. ESAF is optimistic about the growth opportunities in rural centres in India as they have lower financial inclusion than urban areas. There is thus less competition for banking services in rural centres compared with urban centres.

Risks

2
  1. The company is exposed to risk arising from failure by customers in the repayment of loans, and as a result, there could be an increase in NPAs, and financial performance could be impacted.

  2. The company operates in an industry which is highly regulated due to the involvement of money. Any failure in compliance could lead the business to penalties, fines, etc.
