    AU Bank’s Increased Deposits<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

    Global economic activity has slowed as a result of geopolitical tensions, tightening global financial conditions, persistently high inflation, and sharper-than-expected monetary tightening by central banks around the world. As a result of global inflationary trends, weakening global demand, and high volatility in portfolio flows, India continues to face increased pressures. Tighter liquidity and strong credit growth have resulted in increased demand for deposits and a rise in deposit rates across the board in the last quarter. Deposits increased by 38% year on year and 5% quarterly, owing to an increase in retail term deposits. CASA plus retail term deposits account for roughly 70% of total CASA.

    The competition for deposits has gotten more intense as the system credit growth remains robust, which has led to an increase in deposit rates for all commercial banks in the third quarter of FY23. Additionally, AU Small Finance increased the rates on saving deposits and term deposits. The overall response was quite positive in the retail sector, with term deposits were clearly preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Developments In Expansion strategy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

    In this quarter, the bank added 42 new touch points, surpassing the 1,000 touch points with a presence in 21 states and three union territories in India. Furthermore, in the last quarter, it expanded into two new states: Andhra Pradesh and Kerala. In the third quarter of FY23, AU Small Finance Bank added approximately 3.3 lakh customers. The bank also expanded their third-party offerings by partnering with HDFC Life and ICICI Lombard for insurance.

    On the digital front, the bank continued to expand and improve their various initiatives, such as their own app, AU 0101, Video Banking, and Credit Cards. It now has approximately 16 lakh digital customers and approximately 4 lakh credit card customers, with a monthly issuance of 35,000 cards.<\/p>\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Other Updates<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

    The automation effort at AU Small Finance Bank has also begun to bear fruit, with more than 150 processes automated. This should help to reduce costs in the long term. The cost of funds increased by 14 basis points for the quarter compared to the previous quarter. As liquidity remains tight, interest rates remain a key variable, and the ability to optimize cost of funds remains a top priority for the management.

    As per the management, \u201cThe asset business saw a disbursement north of INR 10,000 crores, growing 23% year-on year with the disbursement yields remaining stable. Our non-fund business also saw sanctions of around INR 500 crores.
