Nidhi Sharma
@nidhisharma7
Senior banking credit & risk leader improving loan approvals and compliance through data-driven underwriting.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accomplished Senior Manager in credit underwriting and relationship management, with 9 years of credit underwriting expertise and 15 years overall in banking. I specialize in credit analysis, risk management, banking regulations, and financial analysis, using advanced data analysis to rebuild missing information and strengthen decision quality.
Across my roles, I’ve driven measurable underwriting and portfolio outcomes—improving loan approvals by 20% while maintaining minimal risk, increasing approvals by 30% through a risk-based pricing model, and reducing NPAs by 10% over a year. I also streamline processes by implementing advanced financial modeling software, accelerating forecasting and underwriting cycles while improving accuracy and customer satisfaction.
Just as importantly, I lead with compliance and controls: I’ve managed AML, KYC, and Basel III adherence, resolved audit communication discrepancies quickly, and delivered zero non-compliance findings through pre-audit checklists and mock audits. I’m passionate about building cross-functional clarity, mentoring teams, and using tools like Early Warning Systems to reduce delinquency and protect credit performance.
