BENEFIT OF NBFC REGISTRATION

Lesser Rules and Regulations

NBFCs must comply with regulations mandated by the Companies Act, which are less stringent than those that banks must comply with. This reduces the complexity of the lending process and makes it easier for borrowers to obtain loans.

Quick in Functioning

When it comes to getting a loan, most prefer NBFCs over banks because the latter has strict regulations and requires more time to approve or sanction a loan. NBFCs ensure that the processing is faster and the required loan amount is disbursed within a few days.

Competitive Interest Rates

Interest rates are one of the most important considerations when taking out any type of loan.Thus, borrowers find them quick and affordable because the NBFC has focused on this area over the last few decades, reducing interest rates to bank rates.

More Profitable

NBFCs are more profitable than private and public sector banks because of less investment and there are many rules and regulations to be followed in case of banks as compared to NBFCs.

FDI (Foreign Direct Investment):

Under NBFC, up to 100% FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) is an amazing advantage of NBFC registration. Non-Banking Financial Institutions are the largest domestic seed funding sponsors.
