What are the factors that can affect an NBFC Business Plan

Following are the factors that affect an NBFC Business Plan

Technological Advancements: The banking sector as a whole is undergoing a monumental shift due to technological advancements making banking operations faster, smoother and efficient. With advent of new technological changes such as Blockchain, cloud banking etc., a monumental shift is being witnessed in the banking sector and it can certainly impact the NBFC sector too. Therefore, an ideal NBFC Business Plan should be designed as such to accommodate the new technological solutions in their business.

Digitisation of NBFC operations: As mentioned above, banking industry is witnessing a paradigm shift where digitization of banking operations is taking place at a fast pace leading to many of the regular banking operations carried out by people redundant. In some jurisdictions, physical banks are reducing in number and digital banks are growing at a fast pace. Therefore, an effective Business Plan should be such that it does take into account digitization of banking operations in coming times.

Change in the Consumer Preferences and Habits: the technological developments coupled with time consuming traditional banking operations have led to the change in the habits and preferences of the consumers. The consumers nowadays want seamless, faster and real-time banking operations to take place. As a result most of the consumers are shifting towards digital banking, open banking, crypto banking etc. An ideal NBFC Business Plan should always be designed keeping in mind the changing and ever-evolving habits and preferences in mind.

Procedure of designing a Business Plan

Services offered by the NBFC

Before drafting an NBFC Business Plan, the management of the NBFC must have clarity with respect to the services that will be offered by the NBFC to their customers. Additionally, while deciding the kinds of services, the management of the NBFC should be aware of the market requirements. Further, the business plan should also mention the market size and the target audience for the NBFC as well.

Executive Summary

“Executive Summary” refers to the aims and objectives of the NBFC. The investors or the creditors will get an overview of the business facts of the NBFC. It must be remembered while drafting the executive summary, that it should be fact based, precise, clear, concise and easily understandable.

Drafting of a basic Business Plan

In this step, the person designing the business plan must do an in-depth and extensive research of various kinds of NBFC Business models present in the market. Once the business model has been decided, a proper draft resembling the business model is prepared.

Statement of Vision and Mission

An ideal NBFC Business Plan should clearly mention the vision and mission of the NBFC in a summarised form for the proper understanding of the creditors and investors.

Description of the company

The next step after mentioning the Mission and Vision of the NBFC is to clearly demarcate the sectors where the NBFC business will be focusing. The management of the NBFC needs to mention the geographical locations and jurisdictions where the NBFC will be carrying out its business. The benefit of this step is to assist the potential creditors and investors in making an informed decision regarding the services and the market which the NBFC will be focusing on.

Business vehicle/ structure of the NBFC

Budgetary Estimate

Any business at its initial stages should have a budgetary estimate for meeting day-to-day requirements. This budgetary estimate is also required for long term financial planning of the NBFC. It is advised that an NBFC should allocate a portion of its budget aside for the formalities and registration with the Reserve Bank of India.

Background of the Promoters

The Business Plan should also mention a summary of the academic, professional and financial background of all the promoters including the Directors, Shareholders and Promoters of the NBFC. This is taken into account by the RBI while assigning license to the said promoters.

Sales and Marketing

The NBFC Business Plan should also mention the sales and marketing techniques in brief which will be employed by it to reach to potential customers and investors. The Plan should also contain the strategies of marketing that will be employed by it.
