What actually moves these companies
Finance companies take deposits and lend, mostly for vehicles, small business and hire purchase, under the lightest of Nepal Rastra Bank’s three banking licences.
Like the development banks, the sector is a shrinking one. Most of the symbols on the registry here are gone, upgraded into a development bank or absorbed by one.
Worth knowing: Small institutions are where credit stress shows first. Non-performing loan ratios matter more here than in any other financial sector.
The 19 listed securities here are Best Finance Company Ltd. (BFC), Central Finance Co. Ltd. (CFCL), Goodwill Finance Limited (GFCL), Guheswori Merchant Banking & Finance Ltd. (GMFIL), Gurkhas Finance Ltd. (GUFL), Goodwill Finance Limited (GWFD83), ICFC Finance Limited (ICFC), ICFC Finance Limited (ICFCD83), and 11 more listed below. That is 5.0% of the 280 companies listed on NEPSE.
