--RBI: New risk weights for housing finance companies effective today 

MUMBAI – The Reserve Bank of India today said that the risk weighted assets that are computed for undisbursed amount of housing loans or other loans of housing finance companies will be capped at the risk weighted asset computed on a notional basis for equivalent amount of disbursed loan.

In the case of commercial real estate or residential buildings, the risk weight of fund-based and non-fund based exposures, which are classified as standard, will be 75%, and for those which are not classified as standard, their risk weight will be the same as other assets which is currently at 100%, it said in a notification today.

This follows a review of the risk weights for housing finance companies. The guidelines will come into effect from today, it said.  End
