What is the full form of "IIFCL"?
Answer: D
Correct answer: India Infrastructure Finance Company Limited
IIFCL was set up in 2006 as a wholly government-owned company to provide long-term finance for infrastructure projects.
It exists because commercial banks fund themselves largely with short deposits and cannot comfortably lend for twenty-year projects - the asset-liability mismatch that repeatedly strained bank balance sheets in the infrastructure cycle. IIFCL lends directly, refinances banks and provides credit enhancement to help project bonds reach investment grade so that bond investors can take on the tenor instead.
