Summary

 

Has the steel sector turned the corner?

 

After a long spell of financial stress, steel makers are seeing a sharp improvement in profitability because of support from the central government, and healthy growth in production. However, their capability to repay debt remains constrained by sluggish domestic demand, significantly under-utilised capacities - especially in EAF/IF (Electric arc furnace/ Interstitial free) - and continued excess in global supply. Hence, most debt in the sector has either turned non-performing or remains at risk of default. 

 

In such a scenario, which strategy could enable the recovery of non-performing assets? How should bankers approach fresh lending in the steel sector?

 

Our two-day executive training programme will analyse the current business scenario, emerging trends, the resilience of business models (based on integration, product segments and technology), and the nuances of the entire steel value chain (CRISIL’s segment-level analysis of the value chain quantifies the financial distress and potential for recovery) to help you confidently execute credit  decisions.
