Jai ho financial sector ki!! Some of financial/banking companies will become larger than dream. They are true wealth creator. I have liked this sector for long long time and for long long time ahead.
I just give one example here. In SK, house mortgage biz is 386 BUSD. Can you believe it ?? SK is small country with 40m ppl, one can imagine what can happen in India in years to come. What I gave just now is old fact. What I am going to state is something new I read last night.
As per one example, In US average mortgage age is 7 year. It mean that After 7 year, customer will either close the mortgage of sale the house. Assuming ROI is 6% and cost of money there being 4-4.5%. So it looks like NIM is aroung 2-1.5%. All looks logical and correct. But cruel reality is some thing different. Bank's NIM is not 1.5-2% but much more in reality. I give this exercise to some banker/volunteer to solve and let members know the fact....
A loan of 10 Lakhs at 10% taken by (Let's Basant jee) for 20 years. After 7 years, he fully pay the mortgage (assume no penalty).
1. How much Basant jee paid in interest for 7 years ?
2. Find out how much ROI Basant jee paid for 7 years for his 10 Lakh loan (clue: it is not 10%).
Answer to Second question will open every member's eye. Also calculate above for 30 year mortage term.
