Annex‑1

Fit and Prop­er’ Cri­te­ria for direc­tors of NBFCs

Reserve Bank had issued a Direc­tive in June 2004 to banks on under­tak­ing due dili­gence on the per­sons before appoint­ing them on the Boards of banks based on the ‘Report of the Con­sul­ta­tive Group of direc­tors of Banks / Finan­cial Insti­tu­tions’. Spe­cif­ic ‘fit and prop­er’ cri­te­ria to be ful­filled by the direc­tors were also advised.

2. The impor­tance of due dili­gence of direc­tors to ascer­tain suit­abil­i­ty for the post by way of qual­i­fi­ca­tions, tech­ni­cal exper­tise, track record, integri­ty, etc. needs no empha­sis for any finan­cial insti­tu­tion. It is pro­posed to fol­low the same guide­lines mutatis mutan­dis in case of NBFCs also. While the Reserve Bank does car­ry out due dili­gence on direc­tors before issu­ing Cer­tifi­cate of Reg­is­tra­tion to an NBFC, it is nec­es­sary that NBFCs put in place an inter­nal super­vi­so­ry process on a con­tin­u­ing basis. Fur­ther, in order to stream­line and bring in uni­for­mi­ty in the process of due dili­gence, while appoint­ing direc­tors, NBFCs are advised to ensure that the pro­ce­dures men­tioned below are fol­lowed and min­i­mum cri­te­ria ful­filled by the per­sons before they are appoint­ed on the Boards:

(a) NBFCs should under­take a process of due dili­gence to deter­mine the suit­abil­i­ty of the per­son for appoint­ment / con­tin­u­ing to hold appoint­ment as a direc­tor on the Board, based upon qual­i­fi­ca­tion, exper­tise, track record, integri­ty and oth­er ‘fit and prop­er’ cri­te­ria. NBFCs should obtain nec­es­sary infor­ma­tion and dec­la­ra­tion from the pro­posed / exist­ing direc­tors for the pur­pose in the for­mat giv­en at Annex- 2.

(b) The process of due dili­gence should be under­tak­en by the NBFCs at the time of appoint­ment / renew­al of appointment.

© The boards of the NBFCs should con­sti­tute Nom­i­na­tion Com­mit­tees to scru­ti­nize the declarations.

(d) Based on the infor­ma­tion pro­vid­ed in the signed dec­la­ra­tion, Nom­i­na­tion Com­mit­tees should decide on the accep­tance or oth­er­wise of the direc­tors, where con­sid­ered necessary.

(e) NBFCs should obtain annu­al­ly as on 31st March a sim­ple dec­la­ra­tion from the direc­tors that the infor­ma­tion already pro­vid­ed has not under­gone change and where there is any change, req­ui­site details are fur­nished by them forthwith.

(f) The Board of the NBFC must ensure in pub­lic inter­est that the nominated/ elect­ed direc­tors exe­cute the deeds of covenants in the for­mat giv­en in Annex‑3.
