First Loss Default Guarantee (FLDG) Services in India - Strengthen Your Lending Portfolio with FinAxis.
We help NBFCs and fintechs design robust FLDG structures that reduce default risk, enhance investor confidence, and enable responsible credit growth.
The First Loss Default Guarantee (FLDG) is a structured risk-sharing mechanism widely used in India’s fintech and NBFC ecosystem. It allows a third party - typically a fintech partner or guarantor - to cover a predetermined portion of loan defaults, reducing exposure for lenders and encouraging greater credit access.
Key Features of FLDG:
- Risk Mitigation: FLDG provides a safety net for lenders and investors by limiting their exposure to potential losses.
- Third-Party Involvement: A guarantor or insurer assumes responsibility for covering losses up to a specified limit.
- Defined Coverage: The guarantee typically covers a predetermined percentage of the total loan or investment amount.
- Encourages Lending: Enables lenders to extend credit to new or underserved segments.
