U.S. Tariff Imposition & Impact
Karur Vysya Bank has analyzed the potential impact of U.S. tariff impositions on its advances. As of June 2025, the overall Exposure at Impact (EAI) to U.S. exports is reckoned at 1.20% of the bank’s total advances, including both direct and indirect exports.
Segment-wise Exposure
The breakdown of the 1.20% exposure is as follows: Textile (0.86%), Seafood (0.07%), Granites (0.21%), Steel (0.03%), Chemical (0.01%), Wholesale and Retail Trades (0.01%), and Timber (0.01%). The total MSME exposure to U.S. exports is 0.56% of the bank’s total advances as of June 2025.
Strategic Portfolio Management
The bank has strategically reduced its textile portfolio from 8.00% in March 2021 to 5.43% in June 2025. The exposure is mostly in Apparel & Home-textile exports with a minimal amount of 0.11%.
Anticipated Economic Resilience
Karur Vysya Bank anticipates that the Indian economy will remain resilient due to effective political and economic strategies. Diversification of exports, increased domestic market focus, and FTAs with countries like the UK are expected to mitigate the impact of the U.S. tariff imposition.
