Kotak Mahindra Bank forays into Healthcare Financing

Mumbai: To bring a sharper focus to the healthcare sector with a targeted set of product offerings, Kotak Mahindra Bank (KMBL) today announced that it has launched a tailored and holistic suite of healthcare financing solutions ranging from healthcare infrastructure loans, medical equipment finance and unsecured healthcare loans, catering to key stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem including hospitals, laboratories, diagnostic centres, nursing homes, clinics, doctors and medical equipment manufacturers & dealers.

 

KMBL has introduced a comprehensive bouquet of offerings at attractive interest rates to meet the financing requirements of all the key players. This includes innovative lending facilities such as the Insta Programme for quick approval of loans up to Rs. 50 lakh.

 

The Indian healthcare industry is estimated to record strong growth over the next few years. Increasing investments in healthcare are fueled by a greater focus on the part of the government to provide accessible, affordable and quality healthcare across the country. Further, rising insurance coverage and a distinct shift towards wellness & preventive healthcare, in addition to medical tourism, all point towards a robust long-term growth outlook for the industry.

 

Sunil Daga, President & Head – Business Banking Assets, Kotak Mahindra Bank said, “Unquestionably, healthcare is a priority sector for India over the next 3-5 years and beyond. The pandemic has only served to underscore the importance of the sector and the need for increased expenditure and investments to improve both the capacity and the quality of the country’s healthcare infrastructure. To add to this, we are also seeing a growing consciousness towards health and wellness by consumers.”

 

“The industry is at a pivotal juncture, and we believe the time is right for a customised and diversified range of funding options to cater to the entire supply chain. Kotak’s healthcare finance proposition will support the growth of the Indian healthcare industry,” added Sunil.
