MUMBAI // Doha Bank has become the first Gulf lender to move into India since the regulator eased rules for foreign banks entering the country.
It coincides with a report from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) which says that India is now too important a market for overseas banks to ignore, despite the apprehensions foreign lenders face amid political and economic uncertainties.
“India continues to pose a unique dilemma,” said Shinjini Kumar, the professional services consultancy’s head of banking and capital markets for India.
Banks, she said, found it difficult to make long-term decisions regarding growth because of concerns about high inflation, lower economic growth, India’s high current-account deficit and threats of credit ratings downgrades.
“Yet, given its inherent growth potential, geopolitical relevance and its status as the largest democracy in the world, India is a difficult market to ignore,” Ms Kumar said.
She explained that foreign banks were generally taking a “wait and watch” approach to India and would “take selective opportunities as they came along to grow”.
India’s economic growth slowed to a decade-low of 5 per cent in the last financial year, and it is argued that more economic reforms are needed to attract investment. Many infrastructure projects have stalled, and with general elections due by May, the political environment is uncertain.
Foreign lenders are also waiting for more clarity on new rules for foreign banks that were unveiled by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) last month, according to PwC.
The rules are designed to make it easier for overseas banks to open branches in India and potentially take over local companies if they set up wholly owned subsidiaries in the country. Foreign banks currently operate in India as branches rather than subsidiaries. The central bank said the framework would enable foreign lenders to be treated almost on par with local banks.
Foreign banks view India as a long-term opportunity, with the market expected to provide more business in the future once other industries in India open up to more foreign investment, according to PwC.
Doha Bank plans to open a branch in Mumbai soon, offering wholesale and retail banking, and treasury and trade finance services to customers in India. It said it would be the sole Qatari lender to offer such services. GCC banks do not have a massive presence in India; the foreign banking market in India is dominated by Standard Chartered, Citibank and HSBC. Foreign lenders account for a small minority – less than 0.5 per cent – of branches in India. Among the limited GCC representation in the country, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank has a branch each in Mumbai and Bangalore.
Sheikh Abdul Rahman bin Mohammad bin Jabor Al Thani, Doha Bank’s managing director, said its new licence would “further enhance the niche role Doha Bank is playing and facilitate the movement of trade between Qatar and India”.
He also said India offered growth opportunities in sectors such as infrastructure.
The Qatari bank aims to capitalise on the large number of Indian expatriates and Indian companies in Qatar as well as the wider GCC region.
R Seetharaman, Doha Bank’s group chief executive, said: “Doha Bank has been supporting various Indian companies present in Qatar for their local banking needs and we wish to extend our services and facilities to the same companies for their operations in their home markets as well.”

Key changes
Commission caps
For life insurance products with a savings component, Peter Hodgins of Clyde & Co said different caps apply to the saving and protection elements:
• For the saving component, a cap of 4.5 per cent of the annualised premium per year (which may not exceed 90 per cent of the annualised premium over the policy term).
• On the protection component, there is a cap of 10 per cent of the annualised premium per year (which may not exceed 160 per cent of the annualised premium over the policy term).
• Indemnity commission, the amount of commission that can be advanced to a product salesperson, can be 50 per cent of the annualised premium for the first year or 50 per cent of the total commissions on the policy calculated.
• The remaining commission after deduction of the indemnity commission is paid equally over the premium payment term.
• For pure protection products, which only offer a life insurance component, the maximum commission will be 10 per cent of the annualised premium multiplied by the length of the policy in years.
Disclosure
Customers must now be provided with a full illustration of the product they are buying to ensure they understand the potential returns on savings products as well as the effects of any charges. There is also a “free-look” period of 30 days, where insurers must provide a full refund if the buyer wishes to cancel the policy.
“The illustration should provide for at least two scenarios to illustrate the performance of the product,” said Mr Hodgins. “All illustrations are required to be signed by the customer.”
Another illustration must outline surrender charges to ensure they understand the costs of exiting a fixed-term product early.
Illustrations must also be kept updatedand insurers must provide information on the top five investment funds available annually, including at least five years' performance data.
“This may be segregated based on the risk appetite of the customer (in which case, the top five funds for each segment must be provided),” said Mr Hodgins.
Product providers must also disclose the ratio of protection benefit to savings benefits. If a protection benefit ratio is less than 10 per cent "the product must carry a warning stating that it has limited or no protection benefit" Mr Hodgins added.

Three tips from La Perle's performers
1 The kind of water athletes drink is important. Gwilym Hooson, a 28-year-old British performer who is currently recovering from knee surgery, found that out when the company was still in Studio City, training for 12 hours a day. “The physio team was like: ‘Why is everyone getting cramps?’ And then they realised we had to add salt and sugar to the water,” he says.
2 A little chocolate is a good thing. “It’s emergency energy,” says Craig Paul Smith, La Perle’s head coach and former Cirque du Soleil performer, gesturing to an almost-empty open box of mini chocolate bars on his desk backstage.
3 Take chances, says Young, who has worked all over the world, including most recently at Dragone’s show in China. “Every time we go out of our comfort zone, we learn a lot about ourselves,” she says.

How it works
A $10 hand-powered LED light and battery bank
Device is operated by hand cranking it at any time during the day or night
The charge is stored inside a battery
The ratio is that for every minute you crank, it provides 10 minutes light on the brightest mode
A full hand wound charge is of 16.5minutes
This gives 1.1 hours of light on high mode or 2.5 hours of light on low mode
When more light is needed, it can be recharged by winding again
The larger version costs between $18-20 and generates more than 15 hours of light with a 45-minute charge
No limit on how many times you can charge
