An Asset Reconstruction Company (ARC) is a specialized financial institution that is involved in the acquisition of non-performing assets (NPAs) from banks and financial institutions. These NPAs are typically distressed or bad loans that have not been repaid by borrowers as per the agreed terms. ARCs are established to help banks clean up their balance sheets and recover a portion of the outstanding loans.
ARCs are regulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in India and are subject to specific guidelines and restrictions to ensure transparency and accountability.
