Given the total assets of USD 11 million and the deposits of USD 7.7 million, is there any 3rd-party refinancing already in the books? Are these subordinated debts to protect members' deposits? on
Q&A
Yes, we do have some external borrowings which contribute to about 20% of our funding structure, but mostly from like-minded investors/wholesale lenders. Yes, none of these debts are secured, therefore subordinated in nature. |
