Axis Bank and Shriram Housing Finance Limited (SHFL) have entered into a partnership under the co-lending model


through the Yubi Co.Lend platform. The private sector lender and the housing finance company will offer secured

MSME (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) loans and home loans to the middle and low-income segment

borrowers residing in rural and semi-urban regions. According to a joint statement, the partnership will utilise Axis

Bank's financial expertise and SHFL's loan processing technology to evaluate the credit profile of borrowers and

provide loans at competitive interest rates.

The co-lending model will be helpful for potential customers who are either new to credit or untapped by larger

institutions, and it will assist in building a secured loan book, the statement said. The partnership will also make use of

the tech platform, Yubi, to process loans seamlessly as per the co-lending guidelines.

The Yubi Co.Lend platform provides a digital lending infrastructure that helps lenders simplify their loan origination

and management processes. The platform has an end-to-end lending lifecycle management module that enables

lenders to make data-driven lending decisions and manage their lending portfolios effectively.

This partnership between Axis Bank and SHFL will provide access to credit to a significant segment of the population

residing in rural and semi-urban areas who may have limited access to formal credit sources. The collaboration aims to



bridge the gap in the availability of credit to the middle and low-income segment borrowers by leveraging the

expertise and strengths of both partners.

This partnership will also aid in promoting financial inclusion by extending access to formal credit to underserved

segments of the population. It will enable the middle and low-income borrowers in rural and semi-urban areas to take

advantage of Axis Bank's financial expertise and SHFL's loan processing technology to meet their financing needs.

This collaboration between Axis Bank and SHFL is a significant development in the co-lending space, which is

emerging as a popular model for lending in the Indian financial sector. The co-lending model is expected to play a

crucial role in increasing credit availability to underserved segments of the population, particularly in rural and semi-

urban areas, where credit penetration is still low.
