Open in new tab 2022 in retrospect: Regulatory activity in the financial sector
– Vinod Kothari | finserv@vinodkothari.com
It has been a brisk year in terms of activity – a busy regulator kept all regulated entities busier. This year marked the initiation of a new SBR framework for NBFCs – hence there was a lot of buzz in terms of understanding the new regulatory framework. The names of 16 Upper layer entities were declared by the RBI – consisting of 5 HFCs, 10 NBFC-ICCs, one CIC[1]. As is the design, UL entities are treated at par with banks in terms of regulatory intensity –hence, there is a LEF (large exposure framework), differential provisioning norms in case of standard assets, CET-1 capital requirement, mandatory listing etc.

Reintroduction of the Data Protection Bill: Analysing the Implications for FinTech
– Financial Services Division (finserv@vinodkothari.com)
Background
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) introduced the revised draft of the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2022[1] (‘Bill’) on November 18, 2022 for public comments. The Bill is intended to be technology and sector-agnostic and hence, shall serve as a broad guide for digital data protection across all sectors. It is expected that sector-specific regulators shall develop regulations based on the legislation passed based on the said Bill.
In this write-up, we intend to cover the broad prescriptions of the said draft Bill and their impact on the fintech industry.

Analysing prevalent structures and their capital treatment
– Qasim Saif, Senior Manager | qasim@vinodkothari.com
The term that has been grabbing limelight in the world of finance, specifically for non-banking finance would be First Loss Default Guarantees (FLDGs). The growth of the fintech sector in India may be chiefly credited for making FLDGs as the latest buzzword. However, guarantees are not a new innovation; it has been commonly used in the finance sector since ages.

The August 10, 2022 Press Release of the RBI on implementation of the recommendations of the Working group on Digital Lending was a major setback for the existing business model of several fintech entities and digital lenders. Through the Press Release, RBI had sought to implement the recommendations and suggestions of the WG on digital lending. [1]

Updated on February 15, 2023
| The RBI had constituted a Working Group on digital lending including lending through online platforms and mobile apps on January 13, 2021[1]. The Working Group (‘WG’) submitted its report and the same was published by the RBI on November 18, 2021[2] (‘Report’). |
On August 10, 2022, the RBI issued a press release on implementation of the recommendations of the WG. The press release contains three annexures that are either applicable immediately or may be applicable in due course. Through the press release, RBI seeks to implement the recommendations and suggestions of the WG on digital lending.
Further, the RBI has issued the Guidelines on Digital Lending on September 2, 2022 (‘Guidelines’). The text of the Guidelines is largely similar to the press release, with certain modifications and insertions of footnotes.
We have developed a set of FAQs on the press release and updated the same based on the Guidelines issued by RBI, where we intend to answer some of the critical questions relating to the digital lending regulatory framework.
The following FAQs have also been updated in line with the RBI FAQs dated February 14, 2023.
