Controversies
Inhuman debt recovery methods
A few years after its rise to prominence in the banking sector, ICICI bank faced allegations on the recovery methods it usedagainst loan payment defaulters. A number of cases were filed against the bank and its employees for using "brutalmeasures" to recover the money. Most of the allegations were that the bank was using goons to recover the credit cardpayments and that these "recovery agents" exhibited inappropriate and in some cases, inhuman behavior. Incidents werereported wherein the defaulters were put to "public shame" by the recovery agents.
The bank also faced allegations of inappropriate behavior in recovering its loans. These allegations started initially when the"recovery agents" and bank employees started threatening the defaulters. In some cases, notes written by the bank'semployees asking the defaulters to "sell everything in the house including family members", were found. Such charges facedby the bank rose to a peak when suicide cases were reported wherein the suicide notes spoke of the Bank's recoverymethods as the cause of the suicide. This led to a lot of legal battles and the bank paying huge compensations.[90][91][92]
Money laundering allegations
ICICI Bank was one of the leading Indian banks accused of blatant money laundering through violation of RBI guidelines inthe famous CobraPost[93] sting operation which shook up Indian banking industry during April–May 2013. [94]
On 14 March 2013 the online magazine Cobrapost released video footage from Operation Red Spider showing high-rankingofficials and some employees of ICICI Bank agreeing to convert black money into white, an act in violation of MoneyLaundering Control Act. The Government of India and Reserve Bank of India ordered an inquiry following the exposé. On 15March 2013, ICICI Bank suspended 18 employees, pending inquiry.[7][8][9] On 11 April 2013 Deputy Governor of RBI, H RKhan reportedly told that the central bank is initiating action against ICICI Bank in connexion with allegations of moneylaundering.[10][11]
Credit Rating
On account of the growing concerns over India's sovereign debt ratings,credit ratings agency Moody's lowered the ratings forICICI Bank from Baa3 to Baa2 in May 2012.[95][96]
