Commenting on the results and financial performance, Mr. Vishal Kampani, Non-executive Vice Chairman, JM Financial Limited, said,

“The global economic environment is experiencing uncertainties due to geopolitics, monetary policy tightening and inflation. The NBFC and banking sector have demonstrated resilience on the back of healthy capitalization and good credit offtake.

We reported robust earnings basis given that last financial year had witnessed strong performance in the IPO issuance and IPO financing related businesses compared to this financial year.

The Investment bank segment demonstrated strong performance despite volatile equity market conditions on the back of our strong integrated franchise. The pipeline of investment banking transactions remains robust. The loan book for the mortgage lending (retail and wholesale) segment has demonstrated strong growth. We are on track to achieve the loan book guidance provided for the retail and wholesale mortgage lending businesses. During the quarter the distressed credit business acquired retail assets and continues to focus on acquisition and resolution of distressed assets. Investments in physical and digital infrastructure continue in the platform AWS business.

Considering global macro conditions, high interest rates, inflation and geopolitical conditions, the equity markets are expected to remain volatile in the first half of this calendar year”.
