NEW DELHI, Sept 21, 2009 (Asia In Focus via COMTEX) --
The Indian arm of global lender ABN AMRO BANK, whose retail business is reported to be on the block, recorded a near three-fold growth in bad loans during 2008-09. The net Non-Performing Asset (NPA) ratio -- a pointer to the loans that are considered bad -- of ABN Amro has gone up to 2.2 per cent of its assets suggesting that the foreign bank is just a shade better than the crisis ridden CITIBANK, the RBI data revealed.
* The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), which acquired global operations of ABN Amro Bank, is in advanced discussions with bidders for selling its retail and commercial banking businesses in certain Asian markets, including that of India.
* ABN Amro Bank's net NPA ratio, according to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), increased from 0.85 per cent in 2007-08 to 2.20 per cent during 2008-09, one of the highest among the 30 foreign banks operating in the country.
