International Finance Corporation (IFC)
International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private-sector investment arm of the World Bank, is evaluating a proposal to lend as much as $100 million (Rs 740 crore) to Hero Fincorp Ltd. Hero FinCorp was created almost 29 years ago and was previously known as Hero Honda FinLease. It took on the new name after Japanese automaker Honda exited its bike joint venture with India’s Munjal family under Hero MotoCorp, which was formerly known as Hero Honda Motors. Previously, Hero FinCorp largely operated as a captive finance arm of Hero MotoCorp. Over the years, it has expanded to lend outside the Hero group ecosystem and started extending loans for two-wheelers and pre-owned cars. It now also offers personal loans and loans against portfolio. Its core business is in the provision of financing two-wheeler loans and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) loans to clients. Its consolidated loan portfolio comprises two-wheeler finance (37%), used-car finance (7%), personal loans (11%), home loans (6%), MSME loans (21%) and corporate loans (18%). The IFC funding will allow Hero FinCorp to expand its two-wheeler financing to self-employed individuals or MSME borrowers in the low-income states of India. The company will also deploy three times the IFC loan amount, through its own resources and other sources of funding, towards the same target beneficiaries over the next three years. Delhi-based Hero FinCorp has 3,700 retail touchpoints across 27 states in India. It is part of the Munjal Group. After a split in the ranks a few years ago, Hero FinCorp remained as an associate of Pawan Munjal-controlled Hero MotoCorp. Hero MotorCorp, India’s biggest bike maker, owns a 41.2% stake in the non-bank lender while other investment companies of the Munjal family hold 38.3%. Its external shareholders include Credit Suisse (2%) and two private equity firms ChrysCapital (10%) and Apis Growth (2%), besides the firm’s dealers and employees (6.5%). Hero FinCorp had first raised capital from ChrysCapital and Credit Suisse in 2016. That investment round was worth Rs 702 crore ($105 million) with ChrysCap picking up a 11% stake while Credit Suisse buying 2.5%. At that time the promoters also had pumped fresh money. London-based Apis Partners, the emerging markets financial services-focused PE firm, had come as a new investor in Hero FinCorp a year ago as part of a larger Rs 1,053 crore ($148 million then) fundraise. The money was to flow in via two tranches. This was the first India deal for Apis from the second fund it raised in 2018.
