ARC consolidation: Govt weighs ASREC merger with NARCL
The government is considering a merger of ASREC Asset Reconstruction Company with NARCL to enhance the functionality of state-sponsored bad-loan resolution efforts. This proposal, still in preliminary discussions, underscores a strategic effort for consolidation rather than growth. ASREC ARC is majorly held by public sector lenders and LIC, aiming for better management and scrutiny of bad loans.
