How State Bank of India prices corporate credit

State Bank of India is a India-based bank with approximately EUR 12.4tn of corporate credit exposure (EAD) under the Standardised approach to credit risk capital. The numbers below come directly from State Bank of India's most recent Pillar 3 CR6 regulatory filings and are used to model how this bank prices corporate credit facilities.

What makes State Bank of India's book distinctive

State Bank of India is a top-10 corporate lender by disclosed EAD (9th). Its cost-to-income ratio of 54.0% is structurally efficient (+4.2pp vs the 59-bank cross-section average of 49.8%). The corporate portfolio is mixed-grade, with an EAD-weighted average PD of 1.8% against a cross-bank average of 2.1%.

The bank's Pillar 3 disclosure uses a standardised or jurisdiction-specific framework, which means its reported averages are not directly comparable to EU CRR IRB peers without adjustment. Unsecured LGD disclosed at 45.0% is +8.2pp against the 36.8% cross-bank average, indicating a harder workout profile than the peer median and pushing up capital consumption on defaulted exposures.

On the standardised BBB+ EUR 25M 5-year term loan used across every bank profile, State Bank of India lands in the lower half of the pricing ranking (#47 of 59), with a RAROC of 6.87% and a minimum spread of 262bp to reach the 12% hurdle. Within India specifically, the bank ranks #2 of 2 on this same calculation.

Sample RAROC calculation

To hit that hurdle on this exact deal, the bank would need a minimum spread of 262bp. This deal is significantly below target — the bank would either reprice it or decline.
