The lending program requires assessing clients on various dimensions, including income, repayment behavior, stability of income/ residence, profile, collateral [valuation, marketability], ownership structure of business and the property and many others. Mortgages business across the industry is majorly driven by Direct Selling Agents (DSA s). ABFL Distribution network also majorly comprises DSA s. The DSA s are broadly of 2 kinds 1. Corporate DSA s who are present across multiple cities and act as an aggregator and 2. Retail channels who operate in a single city with smaller team size. As of today RM s are mapped to channels basis their geographical distribution and have a mix of Corporate and Retail DSA s in their fold. In doing so RM s time is equally divided between the 2 channels. To bring in more focus on distribution and channel engagement we propose the following structure wherein Tier 1 is divided into 2 verticals: 1. Alternate Channel Business which will source from Corporate channels and 2. Retail Channel which will source from Non-Corporate channels. The metrics RM Target/Productivity/Channel Management used will be different for both verticals depending on the potential of channels the RM s are mapped to. The focused approach will help the Mortgages Business scale up numbers and market share in all Tier 1 markets. Mortgages envisage the market share to go from the current 3% to at least 6% with the proposed organization structure. The challenge that we foresee on account of these change in market dynamics are : More aggressive pricing strategy adopted by other institutions will impact our yield and fee income and further increase our cost of acquisition More players eyeing for the same business have increased negotiating powers of the customers. They have more choices now. 3) Job Context & Major Challenges: Write the specific aspects of the job that provide a challenge (internal and external) to the jobholder in the context of the Business / Unit / Function / Department / Section ((Max 3975 Characters) Managing Channel Partners: Higher payouts offered by other institution to channel partners will impact the patronage that we enjoy with them.
