Sub-sector

Banking

Indian banking spans large public sector banks, established private banks, newer private players, and an evolving digital and small-finance banking layer. Each calls for a different kind of leader.

The market today

What the Banking landscape looks like.

The Indian banking landscape has been through significant change in the last decade: consolidation in the public sector, the emergence of new private banks, the licensing of small finance and payments banks, and the rapid maturing of digital and fintech-adjacent players. Each of these segments competes for a similar leadership pool.

Leadership demand spans CEO, business-head, risk, and increasingly technology and digital roles. Regulatory expectations and board scrutiny make this one of the most carefully-watched leadership markets in the country.

Our mandates here cover senior roles across private banks and the newer digital-first players. We are deliberately selective.
