Indian Giant on the Brink of Meltdown

One of India’s largest financial institutions, Infrastructure Lending and Financial Services, which has helped to fuel the growth of the world’s fastest-growing economy over the past 30 years. But now it threatens to, has now helped to bring India to the brink of crisis.

The company is considered systematically important to the health of the economy, since some of its largest stakeholders include the Central Bank of India, the State Bank of India (NSE: SBIN), the largest mortgage lender in India (NSE: HDBFC), and the largest life insurance company in India, which is state-owned.

IL&FS owns or is affiliated with between 170 and 256 smaller companies, depending on the criteria by which they are categorized, and this has made the current crisis difficult to foresee. Its figurehead resigned for health reasons in July, and it began defaulting on its debts in August, the effects of which have taken until mid-September to become apparent.

The BSE SENSEX and the Nifty 50 (NSE: NIFTY) indices have plunged from highs in August, and many brows have been knitted in anticipation of a solution. The IL&FS crisis is only the icing on the cake, really, in the broader context of a nationwide pandemic of bad debt that has caused Reserve Bank of India to force corrective framework on 11 of the 21 government-owned banks in recent months, as well as a falling Rupee (INR:USD).

Many altcoins are variants, or forks, of Bitcoin that leverage that cryptocurrency’s open-source protocol as the basis.

Why it Pays to Invest in Dividend Stocks Over the Long Term

Why it Pays to Invest in Dividend Stocks Over the Long Term

Where smaller, more volatile companies can placate shareholders with higher returns, larger companies often use dividend payouts to entice new investors and hold their existing ones. These low-risk options may not work for every investment approach, but dividend-producing stocks can offer great benefits under the right circumstances – especially for portfolios built for the long-term.Beyond the ability to rely on these semi-regular payouts as an income stream – a strategy favored by retirees – dividends are an excellent vehicle for compounding earnings through reinvestment.
