Analysts at Angel Broking believe that retail deposit is the key for any bank for lower cost of funds. However, YES Bank has witnessed sizable deposit withdrawal over the last 2 quarters. Rebuilding CASA and deposits is a challenging task and would take longer time, it said.

Although, rating agency Moody’s feels that capital raising by the bank is credit positive. The fresh equity capital injection of about Rs 15,000 crore ($2 billion) is credit-positive for YES Bank as it strengthens the lender’s capitalisation and loss-absorbing buffers. It will also reduce default risk for its creditors, it said.

The successful equity raise reflects YES Bank’s regained access to external market funds. This, in turn, shows the bank’s improving financial strength and will help support depositor confidence, Moody’s said in a statement.
