State-owned Oriental Bank of Commerce (OBC) is aiming for a credit growth of 12 percent in the current fiscal with focus on retail and SME lending. "We are intending to do between 10-12 percent (loan) growth going forward.
We are not targeting to increase corporate credit in a big way. We are targeting to increase our retail growth," OBC Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Animesh Chauhan told PTI. The bank witnessed a 3.78 percent credit growth in 2015-16. Apart from retail, the bank will also focus on micro, small and medium enterprises.
"Our bank has launched lot of new schemes for the MSME sector and with that, we expect to get a little better share on MSME lending also," he said. He further said the bank will look for good lending opportunities in the corporate sector as well, and as soon as the economy picks up, demand for credit will rise.
