Let us tell you that earlier the bank did not do background checks of the customers before giving the personal loan. Nor was there a need to pledge much goods. But now there has been a big change in the rules.
Why did RBI make new rules
According to the new rule of RBI, now customers will need a guarantee to take a personal loan. Due to the simple process, the trend of taking personal loan and credit card loan has increased rapidly. Along with this, the number of defaulters of such loans has also increased rapidly. In these loans, guarantees were not taken from the customers, so the banks were facing huge losses. But now RBI has made a rule that first of all the financial condition of the customers will be checked for personal loan or credit card loan. So that the rapidly increasing number of defaulters can be reduced.
