Ravi Narayanan, a seasoned banking professional and former Group Executive at Axis Bank, has been appointed as the CEO of SMFG India Credit. His appointment is significant as it represents the first major leadership shift since SMFG’s complete acquisition of Fullerton India Credit. Narayanan brings extensive expertise in retail liabilities, branch banking, and products, making him a strong fit to lead the company into its next phase of growth. Unlike his predecessors, who were closely tied to Fullerton’s legacy, Narayanan’s entry reflects SMFG’s clear intent to drive a new strategic direction with an operational model that aligns more closely with its global vision.
