The investment, valued at $705m, will be made through convertible warrants and includes a provision for Blackstone's affiliate to nominate a non-executive director to Federal Bank's board. This follows recent foreign investments in Indian financial institutions, including Emirates NBD's acquisition of a stake in RBL Bank.
