Difficult to lower interest rates below 20% without access to cheaper funds: MFI heads
microfinance institutions (MFIs) on Friday said that it would be difficult for them to lower interest rates unless they have access to cheaper sources of funds which can be ensured by a dedicated credit guarantee scheme, refinance facility or interest subvention. The rates charged by microfinance lenders have always been a contentious issue and have again come under regulatory glare following an increase in defaults seen in the sector. Most lenders charge between 21% and 24% a year. The Department of Financial Services at a meeting with MFI heads earlier this week urged them to reduce rates to make the loans viable for borrowers. «Given the cost structure, it would be difficult for NBFC-MFIs to reduce rates below 20%,» said Sadaf Sayeed, chief executive at Muthoot Microfinance.

Gold price: Gold rate to surge due to Donald Trump's Inauguration?
Gold prices scaled a four-week peak on Friday and were set for their best week in seven, driven by safe-haven demand amid uncertainty over what policies U.S. President-elect Donald Trump will pursue, while markets awaited jobs data for clues on the trajectory of U.S. interest rates, as per a report. Spot gold climbed 0.4 per cent to $2,679.65 per ounce, as of 1250 (GMT) after hitting its highest level since December 13 earlier in the session. Prices have risen by more than 1 per cent this week. U.S. gold futures rose 0.6 per cent to $2,707.00, Reuters reported. The most bullish outcome for gold is the narrative of ballooning fiscal deficits and unsustainable debt weighing on the U.S. dollar in the longer term and causing doubts about its role as the world’s reserve currency, said Carsten Menke, analyst at Julius Baer, according to Reuters report.
