YES Bank names Rishab Zaveri senior vice president

KOLKATA: YES Bank has handed a bigger mandate to Rishab Zaveri, appointing him senior vice president and regional credit manager, a role that puts him at the centre of the lender’s retail credit engine.

Zaveri will steer regional credit strategy across retail lending, overseeing underwriting governance and portfolio quality at a time when competition is fierce and risk margins are thin. His brief spans tight risk controls, fraud prevention and sustainable growth, with asset quality firmly in the crosshairs.

He arrives with deep institutional memory of retail credit. Zaveri spent nearly eight years at ICICI Bank as zonal credit manager, running underwriting for used and new car loans, personal loans and business loans. His remit covered the full credit lifecycle, from sanction to disbursement, alongside delinquency management and portfolio risk control.

Known for sharp credit judgement and a disciplined approach, Zaveri has been recognised multiple times with Eagle Eye Awards for fraud prevention. He is also widely regarded as a strong people leader, with a record of building high-performing teams and grooming credit talent.

For YES Bank, the message is clear. In an unforgiving lending cycle, caution is not a constraint but a competitive weapon—and Zaveri has been brought in to wield it.
