Group COO, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Mr. Vikram Sud had this to say on the occasion, “Payment products are big business for banks. Our credit cards will drive acquisition of a large number of new customers for the bank. We have understood the credit card consumer’s confusion and the resultant restricted usage of the category. Thereby, we are offering a suite of 4 distinct card propositions;
Mr. Subrat Pani, Business Head – Cards, Kotak Mahindra Bank said, “I am confident that Kotak Credit Cards will make a difference amongst Indian customers with its segmented approach to offering credit solutions. While on one hand, Indian customers are increasingly exploring better lifestyles through credit, on the other hand there is a constant apprehension on the charge structure. This has restricted usage of credit cards to just a payment tool. We as the credit cards industry have to do a lot more to make it easier for customers to understand and use credit cards. I am convinced that by keeping it Simple, Kotak Cards will transcend this and become a smart credit solution for the Indian consumer.”
