Ex-RBI deputy governor Kanungo may join IIFL board

Former RBI Deputy Governor BP Kanungo is set to join IIFL Finance as an independent director, succeeding AK Purwar. This appointment follows a period where the RBI had banned IIFL Finance from disbursing gold loans due to regulatory non-compliance, a ban that was later lifted. Kanungo's expertise is expected to bolster IIFL's risk management and governance.
