Kshipra Petkar is a dedicated Banking and Financial Services Journalist at The Financial Express. With five years of experience, she has established herself as a key reporter on India’s financial architecture, covering the intricate intersection of central bank policy, commercial banking performance, and the evolving NBFC landscape.

Experience

Kshipra’s career is built on a foundation of high-speed financial news and analytical reporting. Before joining the Indian Express Group, she honed her skills at:

  • Informist Media: Where she specialised in real-time financial wire reporting, focusing on market-moving news in the banking and debt sectors.
  • Republic TV: Gaining experience in the fast-paced environment of broadcast journalism.

Now at The Financial Express, she is a mainstay of the banking beat in Mumbai, providing daily coverage of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the quarterly performance of India’s largest lenders.

Expertise

Kshipra specialises in the health and regulation of the Indian financial system. Her core areas of expertise include:

  • Regulatory Policy & RBI: Breaking down complex circulars from the RBI, including recent shifts in e-mandate rules, capital norms for PPI issuers, and gold loan regulations.
  • Asset Quality & Credit Trends: Investigating emerging risks in the MSME and retail books, as well as tracking the “deposit-credit gap” that currently challenges Indian banks.
  • Earnings Analysis: Providing comprehensive previews and “Report Card” analyses for major institutions like ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, and Union Bank of India.
  • The NBFC Ecosystem: Extensive reporting on non-banking giants like Shriram Finance, Jio Financial, and L&T Finance, focusing on AUM growth and diversification strategies.
  • Digital Finance: Tracking the rollout of CBDC (Digital Rupee) and innovations in the UPI ecosystem.

Kshipra has conducted insightful interviews with industry leaders, including Prashant Kumar (MD & CEO, Yes Bank), Parag Sharma (MD & CEO, Shriram Finance), and Sudipta Roy (MD & CEO, L&T Finance).
