Banks in India are set for a long and bloody battle with their clients over the legality of the derivatives market.
Hundreds of Indian companies bought into cross-currency options and structured products to protect themselves from fluctuations in the foreign exchange market. Many of these companies have experienced significant losses and are turning to the banks that sold them the derivatives for compensation. Some of India’s leading law firms are also caught up in the battle.
Acting for the banks – including Yes Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Axis Bank, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank – are law firms Amarchand Mangaldas and AZB & Partners. Meanwhile, J Sagar Associates, a team of KPMG investigators and several independent consultants, such as derivatives expert AV Rajwade, are representing the growing list of small companies that bought the financial products.
