Union Bank sets ‘RACE’ goal as its strategy of getting among top 3 PSBs

A. Manimekhalai, MD & CEO of Union Bank of India (UBI), wants Union Bank of India to surpass other Public Sector Banks and take the third-largest Public Sector Bank position in a time of few years. Union Bank of India may even take into consideration buying a bank along the route. Manimekhalai, who became UBI’s first female leader on June 7th, emphasised that the bank has set “RACE” as its aim for the year.

KEY POINTS:

  • RACE stands for:
  1. Grow RAM (retail, agriculture, and MSME) loans,
  2. Improve Asset quality,
  3. Boost CASA (current account, savings account deposits), and
  4. Increase Earnings.
  • The MD of Union Bank of India wants the bank to rank among the top three PSB lenders, be the industry leader in a few niche markets, and be a contender in government-sponsored programmes.
  • Regarding the fundamentals of being one of the top three PSBs, the bank’s profitability and net interest margin should rise, the non-performing asset ratios should drop, and the capital to risk-weighted asset ratio must rise.
  • These are the fundamental criteria that Union Bank of India is considering and targeting.
