Minimum capital requirement for NBFCs is 10% so they can leverage its capital several times in the lending business.

Even banks leverage 12-14 times so that should not be a differentiaing factor.

Growing indian businesses tend to diversify.

You invest in an NBFC assuming that they are better - and they will get into banking activities post 2009.

I think Branch licenses should be the differentiating factor. NBFCs dont have to obtain licenses.
 
Shashi jee can give us a comprehensive picture of NBFCs v/s Banks.

RBI IS A SMART KID it will control nbfcs the same way it contrls banking  thus allowing both to survive and grow simultaneously finally it will be the survival and growth of the smartest.do nbfcsexisit in china? and how have banks done there vis avis nbfcs? if icbc is where it is even with ge capital and fullerton around then indians banks will also acheive that type of mkt cap in due course of time

understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things
