Nippon Life AMC Settles Yes Bank AT-1 Bond Dispute Amid Supreme Court Ruling
Nippon Life India Asset Management received in-principle approval from India's markets regulator to settle a dispute over alleged fraudulent investments in Yes Bank's additional tier-1 (AT-1) bonds, paying approximately Rs 96.76 crore. This follows the Supreme Court's recent ruling setting aside Yes Bank's 2020 write-off of Rs 8,415 crore in AT-1 bonds, which has raised concerns about the bank's capital position. Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation was reportedly aware of litigation risks related to these bonds before investing and remains committed to Yes Bank despite potential impacts on its financials.
