Risks
Purple Finance Ltd., like other NBFCs, faces several inherent risks:
Asset Quality Deterioration: Non-Performing Assets (NPAs) arising from borrower defaults can impact profitability and capital.
Interest Rate Risk: Mismatches in interest rate sensitivity between assets and liabilities can affect Net Interest Margin (NIM).
Funding & Liquidity Risk: Dependence on market borrowings makes NBFCs susceptible to funding cost fluctuations and liquidity crunches.
Regulatory Changes: Evolving regulations by the RBI can impact operations, capital requirements, and business models.
Competition: Intense competition from banks, other NBFCs, and fintech companies can pressure margins and market share.
Economic Slowdown: A general economic downturn can lead to reduced credit demand and higher defaults.
