Future Outlook & Guidance The ongoing industrial slowdown, deficient monsoon & continued stresses in the global economy imply that India’s growth could be in the band of 6.0% to 6.2% in FY13. According to the latest assessment by ICRA Ltd., Nominal GDP for India will expand by 14.0%, Bank Deposits by 13.5–15.0% and Bank Credit by 13.0-14.5% during FY13. Credit offtake growth is expected to be muted in FY13, given the weak investment sentiment, substantial borrowing programme of GoI, the expected size of the borrowings to be raised by State Governments and the anticipation for muted deposit growth in FY13. Bank of Baroda will continue with its cautious stance and try to grow at 1.0% to 1.5% over the banking industry’s average growth, given its strong presence in the industrially progressive states and the support it receives from its overseas operations. Strategic thrust will be on protecting the “Financial Soundness” that the Bank has consistently maintained throughout the past four, post-global-crisis years. With a primary focus on risk management, improvement of systems & controls, liquidity and capital strength, development of human capital and customer-friendly branch structures, etc. To quote Michael Porter (Harvard University), “ The ability to change constantly and effectively is made easier by high-level continuity”. Bank of Baroda’s proven track record in high-level continuity would help it tide over the present long stretched downturn quite effectively. Thank you.
