Why it matters
UBS believes that the resolution of leadership uncertainty should drive a re-rating in the near term. The firm also noted that the market may be under-appreciating HDFC Bank's strong branch expansion and deposit growth over the last few years.
HDFC Bank is undergoing leadership changes, including interim chairman Keki Mistry, while RBL Bank hires a potential HDFC successor, and Citigroup is mentioned regarding personnel.
