HDFC Bank, India’s largest bank by market capitalization and a Nifty heavyweight, is facing a crucial turning point after years of underperformance following its merger with HDFC Limited. In this exclusive interview, Amit Goel, Co-Founder and Chief Global Strategist at Pace 360, breaks down the road ahead for the banking giant. Goel explains how the appointment of new leadership could address deep-rooted organizational challenges and help rebuild investor confidence. Bank has recently appointed Anup Bagchi as the new managing director and CEO, which will be effective from 27th October 20206 for 3-years term. With HDFC Bank currently trading at its cheapest valuations in decades, Goel suggests that the market has already priced in the worst of the negative sentiment. While a complete return to its former glory will take time a stronger execution strategy could trigger a significant turnaround.
