INTRODUCTION
Corporate & SME Banking
The corporate and SME loan portfolio of a universal bank typically accounts for 50-70% of its total loan portfolio, making it a vital revenue stream. So, how can a bank differentiate itself from competitors and establish leadership in this space? Is differentiation possible through pricing or product offerings? Probably not, as the corporate lending market is mature, with most players offering similar pricing structures and product portfolios. The true differentiator may lie in the strength of the bank’s relationships with its clients. The quality of these relationships often depends on the bank’s ability to efficiently meet customer needs viz. speeding up credit approvals without sacrificing credit quality, thus ensuring a smooth, seamless customer experience.
This highlights the critical importance of service delivery. To maintain high standards, banks should focus on several key areas:
- Processing proposals transparently and efficiently within established timeframes, without compromising credit quality.
- Ensuring strong post-disbursement monitoring.
- Maintaining comprehensive oversight of the loan portfolio, with timely access to relevant data.
- Implementing effective early warning systems to quickly identify potential issues.
- Delivering a seamless, user-friendly customer experience.
