FOR MORE THAN 20 years, successive chairmen of the State Bank of India (SBI) have consolidated the lender’s standing as the country’s largest bank. From O.P. Bhatt, who made the elephant dance, to Arundhati Bhattacharya, the first woman to lead the bank, the bank has maintained its top position despite private sector competition. Now, the baton passes to Challa Sreenivasulu Setty, who joined the bank in 1988 as a probationary officer. Setty will replace the current Chairman, Dinesh Kumar Khara, who retires on August 28.
Setty, who was promoted to the SBI board as a Managing Director in January 2020, has his task cut out. Building loan portfolios in emerging sectors, expanding the Yono 2.0 app to attract tech-savvy customers, harnessing the power of AI and data analytics for seamless customer onboarding and fraud detection, addressing climate risk in the balance sheet, managing the challenges of current account and savings account (CASA), and unlocking value in non-bank subsidiaries are some key challenges.
