Our retail operations primarily consist of retail lending and deposit taking and distribution of third‑party insurance and investment products. We also offer agricultural and rural banking products.
We have 10 overseas offices, with branches in Colombo, DIFC, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore and representative offices in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Dhaka and a subsidiary in London. We also have an offshore banking unit at the International Financial Service Centre located at the Gujarat International Finance Tec‑City in Gandhinagar, India. Our foreign branches primarily offer corporate banking, trade finance, treasury and risk management services.
Our combination of diverse offerings and a customer‑focused approach has enabled us to design relevant solutions to meet evolving customer aspirations, resulting in sustained business growth, even in a largely volatile and uncertain market scenario.
Our strong balance sheet, culture of learning, adaptability to change and above all, a service‑oriented mindset help us stay ahead of the curve.
