Organizational Context

Key Aspects:
Part of the Aditya Birla Financial Service Group (ABFSG), Aditya Birla Housing Finance Limited (ABHFL) is registered with the National Housing Bank as a housing finance company under the National Housing Bank Act, 1987. The company offers a complete range of housing finance solutions such as home loans, home improvement and home construction loans, balance transfer and top-up loans, loans against property and construction finance.

The company acquired its license on 9th
July 2014 and has aggressive growth plans:

-
ABHFL operates in the Rs. 11.4 trillion Indian Housing Finance market, which has grown at a steady rate of 17% CAGR over the last 3 years while reporting good asset quality despite challenges in the operating environment. While the industry is dominated by five large groups, there has been an emergence of newer entrants in niche segments like affordable housing and self-employed borrowers, given the high potential in these segments.

Despite increased focus by banks, HFCs have been able to maintain their share in the mortgage market and has remained stable at ~37% as on December 2015:

-
The nature of the HFC business (dealing largely with retail customers in the potentially sensitive area of housing/ mortgages), along with the additional regulatory and control mechanisms imposed as a result, means it is imperative that all functions and processes align and comply with sound risk management guidelines and applicable regulations/ controls proactively and judiciously. This is vital for managing risk and protecting interests of both the business as well as the customer

Job Context

Key Aspects:
The Risk team provides core underwriting services fundamental to the ABHFL business health, risk management and sustainability.

Structured as a dual to the Sales/ Sourcing team, with positions mapped against corresponding Sales roles across the organization, the Risk team is responsible for necessary controls and process checks to ensure business performance and health:

-
While the core responsibility for this function is to control the business via robust underwriting and risk management, supporting business expansion via joint evaluation of different product/ market growth proposals with the Sales team is also an important contribution:

-
The Credit Manager plays the role of executing risk and credit operations in line with established guidelines and norms, and securing the organization against diverse risks in local business operations via process measures and checks. This role is responsible for ensuring robust and efficient creditworthiness and risk assessment. He/ She is the "ears on the ground" member of the Risk Team who meets every customer as part of the underwriting process and also visits the property which is being funded. Therefore, he/she needs to have an understanding of the Legal and Valuation framework to be able to perform their role satisfactorily

Key Challenges
-
While the ABFL Mortgages team also works with retail customers in the property space, the ABHFL business is exposed to the additional Construction Risk, i.e. risk from under construction projects not getting completed as planned.

The Risk Team must factor for this when designing and implementing control mechanisms, and evaluating business proposals:

ABHFL is in its inception phase as a company and in the midst of rapid growth. The Risk function must therefore be able to balance priorities of risk management and business growth efficiently, without increasing subprime exposures or impacting business health and sustainability
The housing space is characterized by statewise norms and business practices, as well as varied interpretations of regulatory guidelines by different stakeholders. It is therefore essential for Risk function team members to remain up to date on business practices/ norms in their res
