CSB Bank outlook, business strategy Marking a key milestone in its strategic journey, the Bank is set to transition by completing the 'Build' phase in FY 2025-26 to the 'Scale' phase in FY 2026-27, as outlined in its SBS 2030 strategy. The current year is shaped by a comprehensive technology overhaul, featuring the rollout of a next-generation core banking platform and a fully integrated digital stack. This will substantially enhance product agility, customer experience, and operational efficiency across retail, MSME, and wholesale segments, CSB Bank said in its FY25 annual report. Following stabilisation, the retail asset business is expected to grow significantly, driven by a structured customer acquisition strategy tailored to suit different branch formats and customer segments. The segment is expected to benefit from a broader spectrum of products, including loan against property (LAP), commercial vehicle and consumption loans, and creating enough cross-selling opportunities across the customer lifecycle. In parallel, wholesale banking is expected to deliver robust growth through a restructured vertical-led model, covering large corporate, mid-market, and NBFCs/PSUs. The focus is on deepening share of wallet, enhancing trade and CMS offerings, and progressively reducing earlier NBFC concentration. MSME lending will continue to demonstrate consistent growth, while gold loans are projected to grow steadily with a prudent approach to risk, CSB Bank said.
