Back from the brink, Yes Bank says SMBC stake buy creates room for rating upgrade
Japanese lender SMBC's decision to buy nearly 25 per cent stake in Yes Bank should be seen as a vote of confidence and also creates "possibilities" of a rating upgrade, a top official at the private sector lender has said.
The nearly Rs 16,000-crore bet from Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) is a strategic one from an investor of global repute and it will help improve Yes Bank's ability to raise capital, drive business growth through network tie-ups and increase profitability, the official said.
