RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY

Credit risk is defined as the possibility of losses associated with diminution i
n the credit of quality of borrowers or counter parties. In a banks portfolio, l
osses stem from outright default due to inability or unwillingness of a customer
or counter party to meet commitments in relation to lending, trading, settlemen
t and other financial transactions. As credit risk is one of the challenging tas
ks to banks I have selected this topic for my study in order to know the various
types of risk and the types of strategies the banks use to mitigate the risk.

Challenges
Canara Bank achieved 100% computerization very early in the course of its opera
tional history. It deployed a number of bank automation tools such as a customiz
ed Total Branch Automation (TBA) package called Integrated Branch Banking Softwa
re (18BS), which was developed by its subsidiary, Can Bank Computer Services Ltd
. (CCSL). IBBS was deployed on Novell NetWare at close to 1400 medium sized bran
ches across the country. Canara Bank follows a detailed tendering process for ne
w hardware purchases, in which contracts are awarded on the basis of bids. After
nearly a decade of deploying IBBS, the bank had purchased different types of ha
rdware from multiple vendors. As a result, standardization on Novell NetWare bec
ame difficult, and supporting the legacy IBBS application became a challenging t
ask. Moreover, IBBS was developed using Micro focus COBOL and designed to run in
a 16 bit DOS environment. With poor support for the TCP/IP protocol stack, the
NetWare servers running IBBS could not be integrated into the corporate network
easily. Essentially, the NetWare servers functioned as branch file servers, with
out any data connectivity. Regular maintenance of different versions of IBBS acr
oss 1400 branches was a painstaking effort in the absence of network support. Pa
tching, troubleshooting and version upgrades had to be conducted onsite. Branche
s in rural and remote areas were particularly difficult to access and required s
upport personnel to travel frequently. Also, the availability of certified hardw
are on NetWare was limited, which made adding new machines difficult. As Canara
Bank s customer base expanded, its banking services began to scale, creating an
immediate need for Internet Banking, Anywhere Banking (banking from any Can Bank
branch across the country) and an expanded ATM network. Novell NetWare s closed
legacy environment did not allow room to accommodate these new technologies. Ca
nara Bank had to purchase additional machines running Microsoft Windows to HETs I
NSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 11
interface with these new technologies, which was extremely inefficient from a ha
rdware utilization standpoint. New hardware and Microsoft Windows licenses strai
ned budgets and made new technology projects difficult to scale and sustain. Whe
n additional branches were added to the bank s network, procuring new servers th
at were certified to run on NetWare was difficult, as IHVs had ceased to provide
support for older versions of the as. Micro Focus had also ceased support for t
he COBOL version on which the IBBS package had been developed. A combination of
all these factors made migration attractive. Migrating the 1400 odd legacy NetWa
re servers posed another challenge: Canara Bank wanted to switch platforms but n
ot hardware. Deploying the latest as available, without going into a hardware re
fresh cycle that would cost millions of rupees was a challenging task. The bank
had amassed about a dozen different types of machines after a decade of deployin
g IBBS. This heterogeneous mix of hardware that spanned across more than1,000 se
rver 10,000destopsmadethe project very complex. Canara Bank began to look for a
platform that could deliver the latest innovation along with complete hardware
freedom.
Future plan
Moving from the legacy NetWare platform to Red Hat Enterprise Linux has opened u
p significant opportunities for Canara Bank. With networking support now availab
le, Canara Bank is planning to deploy Red Hat Network Satellite to send updates
for both IBBS as well as the operating system to all distributed machines across
the country. Enterprise Linux has also made Remote Management and health monito
ring of remote servers possible. With the tremendous benefits provided by Enterpr
ise Linux, Canara Bank plans to move its Anywhere Banking and Internet Banking I
i steners to the Enterprise Linux platform. Enterprise Linux has provided Canara
Bank with the freedom and choice to develop a scalable growth plan, which was n
ot possible under NetWare s closed legacy environment. HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEME
NT STUDIES HUBLI Page 12
The power of Linux is not restricted by hardware limitations, as it can run on d

ifferent kinds of architectures. Canara Bank has managed to save crores of rupee
s in new hardware acquisition costs, by using a lightweight customized Linux dis
tribution on its existing hardware
The Bank Today
Canara Bank is one of the premier banks in the country, accredited with umpteen
distinctions. The present stature of the Bank is due to its strong fundamentals
and quality customer orientations. Profit making since inception, the Bank today
ep itomizes a perfect blend of commercial and social banking. For the year Marc
h 2007, the Bank clocked the highest net profit ( RS.1110 crore) among nationali
zed banks, with significant improvement in capital adequacy ratio (13.50%) and a
sset quality (net NPA ratio of 0.94%). The Bank has already carved a niche in pr
oviding IT -based services. With 100% computerization of the branches, the bank
provides a wide array of services, such as, Networked ATMs, Anywhere Banking, Te
lebanking, Remote Access Terminal also Internet & Mobile Banking, Debit Card etc
. The Bank was the first among banks to launch networked ATMs and obtain ISO Cer
tification. Commercial consideration has, no way, diluted the Bank s role in nat
ional priorities. Canara Bank is in fact the first bank to be conferred FICCl aw
ard for contribution to rural development.

hallenges. The last decade has witnessed major changes in the financial sector-n
ew banks, new financial institutions, new instruments, new windows and new oppor
tunities- and, along with all this, new challenges. While deregulation has opene
d up new vistas for banks to augment revenues, it has entailed greater competiti
on and consequently greater risks. Demands for new products, particularly deriva
tives, has required banks to diversify their product HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT
STUDIES HUBLI Page 32
mix and also effect rapid changes in their processes and operations in order to
remain competitive in the globalize environment. The benefits of globalization h
ave been well documented and are being increasingly recognized. Globalization of
domestic banks has also been facilitated by tremendous advancement in informati
on and communication technology. Globalization has thrown up lot of opportunitie
s but accompanied by concomitant risk. There is a growing realization that the a
bility of countries to conduct business across national borders and the ability
to cope with the possible downside risks would depend, inter alia, on the soundn
ess of the financial system and the strength of the individual participants. Ado
ptaion of appropriate prudential, regulatory, supervisory, and technological fra
mework on par with international best practices enables strengthening of the dom
estic banking system, which would help in fortifying it against the risks that m
ight arise out of globalization in India we had strengthened the banking sector
to face the pressures that may arise out of globalization by adopting the bankin
g sector reforms in a calibrated Mann followed the twin governing principles of
non-disruptive progress and consultative process. Legal prescriptions for owners
hip and governance of banks in banking regulation Act, 1949 have been supplement
ed regulatory prescriptions issued by RBI from time to time.

Outsourcing risk:
Banks are increasingly using outsourcing for achieving strategic aims lading to
either ratio nationalization of operational costs are taping specialist expertis
e which is not available internally. Outsourcing may be defined as a banks use of
a third party, including an affiliated entity within a corporate group, to perfo
rm activities on a continuing base that would normally be undertaken by the bank
itself. Typically outsourced financial services include applications processing
(loan organization, credit card), document processing, investment management, m
arketing and research, supervision of loans data processing and bank office rela
ted activities etc.
Application of advanced technology:
Technology is a key driver in the banking industry, which creates new business m
odules and process, and also revolutionizes distribution channels. Banks which h
ave made in adequate investment in technology have consequently faced and erosio
n of there market shares. The beneficiaries are those banks which have invested
in technology. Adoption of technology also enhanced the quality of risk manageme
nt systems in banks. Recognizing the benefits of modernizing their technology in
frastructure banks is taking the right initiatives. While doing so, banks have f
our options to choose from: they can build a new system those selves, or buy bes
t of he modules, or buy a comprehensive solution, or outsource. In this context
banks need to clearly define their core competencies to be sure that they are in
vesting in the areas that will distinguish them from other market players, and g
ive them a competitive advantage. The global challenges which banks face or not
confined only to the global banks, these aspects are also highly relevant for ba
nks which are part of a globalized banking system. Further, over coming these ch
allenges by the other banks is excepted to not only stand them in good stead dur
ing difficult times but also augurs well for the banking system to which they be
long and will also equip them to launch themselves as a global bank.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT IN BANKS

The financial sector especially the banking industry III most emerging economies
including India is passing through a process of change. As the financial activi
ty has become a major economic activity in most economies, any disruption or imb
alance in its infrastructure will have significant impact on the entire economy.
By developing a sound financial system, the banking industry can bring stabilit
y within the financial markets. Deregulation in the financial sector had widened
the products range in the developed markets. Some of the new products introduce
d are LBOs, structured transaction, credit cards, housing finance, derivatives a
nd various off balance sheet items. Thus new vistas have created multiple source
s for banks to generate higher profits than the traditional financial intermedia
tion. Simultaneously they have opened new areas of risk also. Many unknown issue
s that are intricately related to new products have exposed banks to various ris
ks across the globe and India is no exception. During the past decade, the India
n banking industry continued to respond to the emerging challenges of competitio
n, risks and uncertainties. Risks originate in the forms of customer default, fu
nding a gap or adverse movements of markets. Measuring and quantifying risks is
neither easy nor intuitive. Our regulators have made some sincere attempts to br
ing prudential and supervisory norms conforming with international bank practice
s with an intention to strengthen the stability of the banking system.
Banks in general face the following
risk: Page 36
Liquidity Foreign E xchange C redit M arket Interstate Operational The industry

has undergone drastic changes in the last three decades. Horizontal
expansion of the financial markets, deregulation across the globe in financial m
arkets and stiff competition have led the banks to multiply their activities. In
creased activities in the industry have exposed the banks to more uncertainties
and more risks. RISK MANAGEMENT IN BANKS IS BROADLY DIVIDED INTO SIX SECTIONS: F
unds Management is a major activity of the banks. Liquidity management is an int
egral part of funds management. Banks mobilize the deposits and deploy funds in
advances and investments. Banks also float funds through various subsidiary serv
ices extended to their clients. There will be always a time gap between the avai
lability of resources and their deployment. Hence banks will often swing between
excess liquidity and liquidity crunch in their funds position. Liquidity manage
ment essentially deals with efficient handling of inflows and outflows of funds.
Section -I discusses the liquidity management in banks in India and across the
globe. Cash Management is a subset of the entire funds management. The lead time
is reduced in collection of cheques and other instruments by the banks, if they
introduce efficient cashmanagement services. From the bank s point of view it i
ncreases the fee based income. Cash management services are one innovative produ
ct introduced by the banks in the recent times. Section-II discusses the cash ma
nagement techniques adopted by banks and corporate clients.
Credit risk is as old as money. When the default rate increases in the portfolio
of HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 37
the bank< it may lead to its total collapse. To circumvent the c re d it risk, t
he system tries to design innovative products. Section-III discusses the credit
risk management in banks. The Basle committee defines the operational risk as "t
he risk of direct or indirect loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal
processes, people and systems or from external events". This definition excludes
operational: risk but includes legal risk. Such operational risks can be broadl
y classified into four categories as information technology risk, human resource
risk, loss to assets risk and relationship risk. Quantification of operational
risk is a major challenge to the .risk management group of the bank: Section IV
attempts to elucidate few issues involved in the operational risk management. O
ne of the core activities of the regulators is proper of the system. The Basle c
ommittee had set certain guidelines for the bank s. The Reserve Bank of India ha
d set up an advisory committee under the chain Ulship of M S Verma and the commi
ttee had submitted its report in May 2001. The committee recommended corporate g
overnance, internal controls, risk management, loan accounting transparency and
disclosures, financial conglomerates and cross border banking supervision. The s
upervisor should provide a safety net to the financial system. Section -V discus
ses the important issues of any risk management technique. Section-VI consists o
f two case studies. It briefly discusses the risk management Technique s to be a
dopted by banks. Derivatives are the hedging instruments which help minimize the
risks. But a 300 year old investment bank collapsed because of its exposure to
derivatives. The Barings collapse is a classic example of failure of supervisio
n and incidence of human sours risk. In the global scenario, the increased credi
t risk arises due to two reasons. Banks have been forced to lend to riskier clie
nts because well-rated corporates have moved away from banks as they have access
to low cost funds through disinter mediation. The other reason is the lurking f
ear of global recession. Recession in the economy could lead to low industrial o
utput which may lead to defaults by the industry under recession culminating int
o credit risk. Hence, the markets are in search of new credit risk HETs INSTITUTE
OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 38
management models. Credit derivatives which were a new innovation in the market
stood the real test in 1997 during the Asian financial crisis. Several European
and US banks which were exposed to high risk areas in Korea, Philippines and Tha
iland were able to save themselves from losses as they could hedge themselves wi
th credit derivatives. The papers "Credit Risk Management - Models and Judgments
" and "Use of Credit Derivati ves" discuss the critical operational issues in ma
naging credit risk through credit derivatives. In the recent times, we have witn
essed runs on the banks - mainly the Urban Cooperative Banks like Madhavpura Coo
p Bank in Gujarat/Mumbai, Charminar Bank, a scheduled bank in Hyderabad and many
others. When the banks give the signals of distress, the depositors panic and r
un for their money. As per the existing rules, Deposit Insurance and Credit Guar
antee Corporation of India (DICGC) guarantees the depositors money up to one la
kh rupees subject to certain conditions. Till now, the banks used to pay the ins
urance premium for the deposits they hold to get insurance coverage from DICGC.
Now the committee set up by the RBI under the Chairmanship of J Captor suggested
that the risk premium is to be paid which Is sensitive to the probability of th
e bank in question going bankrupt. The paper "What Makes Banks Fragile tries to
compute the volatility of banks assets and deposit insurance premium with an il
lustrate on and presents a view point of fixing higher deposit insurance premium
if reserve requirements are to be phased out.

Credit Risk Management at Canara

Introduction
Bank
Credit risk is defined as the possibility of losses associated with diminution i
n the credit quality of borrowers or counter parties. In a bank s portfolio, los
ses stem from outright default due to inability or unwillingness of a customer o
r counter party to meet commitments in relation to lending, trading, settlement
and other financial transactions. Alternatively, losses result from reduction in
portfolio value arising from actual or perceived deterioration in credit qualit
y. Credit risk emanates from a bank s dealings with an individual, corporate, ba
nk, financial institution or a so vereign. Credit risk takes in the following fo
rms: 1. In the case of direct lending: principal/and or interest amount not be r
epaid; 2. In the case of guarantees or letters of credit: funds not forthcoming
from the constituents upon crystallization 0 f the liability. 3. In the case of
treasury operations: the payment or series of payments due from the counter part
ies under the respective contracts may not be forthcoming or ceases; 4. In the c
ase of securities trading businesses: funds/ securities settlement may not be ef
fected.
Page 40
Credit Risk Management In this backdrop, it is imperative that Canara bank has c
redit risk management system, which is sensitive and responsive to these factors
. The effective management of credit risk is a critical component of comprehensi
ve risk management and ie essential for the long-term success of Canara banking
organisation. Credit risk managemnt encompasses identification, measurement, mon
itoring and control of the credit risk sources. The Bank has put in place a unif
ied risk management architecture to attain global best practices for effective i
mplementation of risk management initiatives in consistence with the Basle II fr
amework and RBI guidelines. The Board of Directors drives the Risk Management in
itiatives in the Bank. The Risk Management Committee of the Board is operational
. Top Executive Committees for Credit Risk, Operational Risk and Market Risk Man
agement oversee and monitor the respective risk management processes and procedu
res. Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) meets periodically for effective and proac
tive ALM in the Bank. An exclusive Risk Management Wing at the Head Office is fu
nctioning as a nodal centre for overall implementation of various risk managemen
t initiatives across the Bank. Integrated Mid Office of both domestic and Forex
Treasury are functioning under the Risk Management Wing for effective and indepe
ndent supervision and monitoring of Market Risk in investment and forex function
s. Risk Management Sections are functioning at all the 34 Circle Offices of the
Bank as an extended arm of the Risk Management Wing at the Corporate Office. The
Bank has put in place various risk management policies, which include policy fo
r management of Credit Risk, Market Risk, Operational Risk, Asset Liability, Liq
uidity Risk, Country Risk, Counterparty Bank Risk, Corporate Governance, Disclos
ures, Collateral Management, Stress Testing, Compliance Functions, Disaster Reco
very and Business Continuity Planning, Business Lines, Outsourcing, Group Risk,
Legal Risk etc. The Bank has also framed risk management policies for its overse
as branches. These policies are being reviewed and fine tuned annually.

Building Blocks of Credit Risk Management at Canara Bank

In a bank, an effective credit risk management framework would , omprise of the
following distinct building blocks:
Policy and Strategy Organizational Structure Operations/ Systems
Policy and Strategy

The Board of Directors shall be responsible for approving and periodic a II y re
viewing the credit risk strategy and significant credit risk policies.
Credit Risk Policy
1. Bank has credit risk policy document approved by the Board. The document incl
ude risk identification, risk measurement, risk grading/ aggregation techniques,
reporting and risk controlV mitigation techniques, documentation, legal issues
and management of problem loans. 2. Credit risk policies defined target markets,
risk acceptance criteria, credit approval authority, credit origination! mainte
nance procedures and guidelines for portfolio management. 3. The credit risk pol
icies approved by the Board communicated to branches/controlling offices. All de
aling officials should clearly understand the barne s approach for credit sancti
on and are held accountable for complying with established policies and procedur
es. 4. Senior management of a Canara bank shall be responsible for implementing
the credit risk policy approved by the Board. HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIE
S HUBLI Page 43
Credit Risk Strategy 1. Each branch of Canara bank should develop, with the appr
oval of its Board, its own credit risk strategy or plan that establishes the obj
ectives guiding the Canara bank s credit-granting activities and adopt necessary
policies/ procedures for conducting such activities. This strategy should spell
out clearly the organisation s credit appetite and the acceptable level of risk
-reward trade-off for its activities. 2. The strategy would, therefore, include
a statement of the Canara bank s willingness to grant loans bas ed on the type
of economic activity, geographical location, currency, market, maturity and anti
cipated profitability. This would necessarily translate into the identification
of target markets and business sectors, preferred levels of diversification and
concentration, the cost of capital in granting credit and the cost of bad debts.
Credit risk Management Committee (CRMC] Each Canara bank may, depending on the
size of the organization or loan! Investment book, constitute a high level Credi
t Risk Management Committee (CRMC). The Committee should be headed by the Chairm
an and should comprise of heads of Credit Department, Treasury, Credit Risk Mana
gement Department (CRMD) and the Chief Economist. The functions of the Credit Ri
sk Management Committee should be as under:
1. Responsible for the implementation of the credit risk policy/ strategy approv
ed by the Board. 2. Monitor credit risk on a Canara bank wide basis and ensure c
ompliance with limits approved by the Board. 3. Recommend to the Board, for its
approval, clear policies on standards for presentation of credit proposals, fina
ncial covenants, rating standards and benchmarks, 4. Decide delegation of credit
approving powers, prudential limits on large credit exposures, standards for lo
an collateral, portfolio management, loan review mechanism, risk
Page 44
concentrations, risk monitoring and evaluation, pricing of loans, provisioning,

regulatory/legal compliance, etc.
Concurrently, Canara bank set up Credit Risk Management Department (CRIVID), ind
ependent of the Credit Administration Department.
The CRMD does the followings :
1. Measure, control and manage credit risk on a Canara bank -wide basis within t
he limits set by the Board/ CRMC
2.
Enforce compliance with the risk parameters and prudential limits set by t.he Bo
ard! CRMC.
3. Lay down riskassesment system develop loan/ investment portfolio. identify pr
oblems, correct deficiencies and undertake loan review/audit. Large Canara banks
could consider separate set up for loan review/audit. 4. Accountable for protec
ting the quality of the entire loan! investment portfolio. The Department undert
akes portfolio evaluations and makes comprehensive studies on the environment to
test the resilience of the loan portfolio Operations 1st Systems Canara banks h
ave an appropriate credit administration, credit risk measurement and monitoring
processes. The credit administration process typically involved the following
1.
2.
Relationship management phase i.e. business development. Transaction management
phase covers risk assessment, loan pricing, structuring the facilities, internal
approvals, documentation, loan administration, on going monitoring and risk mea
surement.
3.
Portfolio management phase entails monitoring of the portfolio at a macro level
and the management of problem loans.
4. On the basis of the broad management framework stated above, the Canara banks
has
Page 45
following credit risk measurement and monitoring procedures:

5. Canara banks established proactive credit risk management practices like annu
al / half yearly
industry studies and individual obligor reviews (recently established) periodic
credit calls that are documented, periodic visits of plant and business site, an
d at least quarterly management reviews of troubled exposures/weak credits

Separation of credit risk management from credit sanction Multiple credit approv
ers making financial sanction subject to approvals at various stages viz. credit
ratings, risk approvals, credit approval grid, etc. An independent audit and ri
sk review function. The level of authority required to approve credit will incre
ase as amounts and transaction risks increase and as risk ratings worsen. Every
obligor and facility must be assigned a risk rating. Mechanism to price faciliti
es depending on the risk grading of the customer, and to attribute accurately th
e associated risk weightings to the facilities. Banks ensure that there are cons
istent standards for the origination, documentation and maintenance for extensio
ns of credit Banks has a consistent approach towards early problem recognition,
the classification of problem exposures, and remedial action. Banks maintain a d
iversified portfolio of risk assets; have a system to conduct regular analysis o
f the portfolio and to ensure ongoing control of risk concentrations. Credit ris
k limits include, obligor limits and concentration limits by industry or geograp
hy. The Boards should authorize efficient and effective credit approval processe
s for operating within the approval emits.
11. Bank has systems and procedures for monitoring financial performance of cust
omers and for controlling outstanding within limits. 12. A conservative policy f
or provisioning in respect of non -performing advances adopted. HETs INSTITUTE OF

Substitution approach
In this approach risk weight of the guarantor replace the lisk weight of the bor
rower provided it result in application of a lower risk weight, thus only guaran
tee issued by entities with a lower risk weight provides credit risk mitigation
effect in the form of lower capital charges. Proportional Cover This method is t
aken note of is that the risk mitigation effect will be available to the extent
of protection provided b Guarantor and the remaining unprotected portion carry t
he risk weight applicable to borrower. Thus in order to avail capital relief it
is necessary that the following details on guarantors are captured: Name of the
Guarantor Extent of Guarantee cover available Customer type of the guarantor
Techniques for Measuring Credit Risk
In the measurement of credit risk, models may be classified along three differen
t dimensions: 1. 2. 3. The techniques employed, The domain of applications in th
e credit process and The products to which they are applied.
Techniques: The following are the more commonly used techniques:
1.
Econometric Techniques such as linear and multiple discriminate analysis,
Multiple regression, logic analysis and probability of default, etc
2.
Neural networks are computer-based systems that use the same data employed in th
e econometric techniques but arrive at the decision model using alternative impl
ementations of a trial and error method.
3 Itemization models are mathematical programming techniques that discover the o
ptimum weights for borrower and loan attributes that minimize lender error and m
aximize profits.
3.
Rule-based or expert are characterized by a set of decision rules, a knowledge b
ase consisting of data such as industry financial ratios, and a structured inqui
ry process to be used by the analyst in obtaining the data on a particular borro
wer.
4.
Hybrid Systems In these systems simulation are driven in part by a direct causal
relationship, the parameters of which are determined through estimation techniq
ues.
Page 53
Domain of application: These models are used in a variety of domains: Credit app
roval Models are used on a stand alone basis or in conjunction with a judgementa
l override system for approving credit in the consumer lending business. The use
of such models has expanded to include small business lending. They are general
ly not used in approving large corporate loans, but they may be one of the input
s to a decision. Credit rating determination: Quantitative models are used in de
riving shadow bond rating for unrated securities and commercial loans. These r
atings in turn influence portfolio limits and other lending limits used by the i
nstitution. In some instances, the credit rating predicted by the model is used
within an institution to challenge the rating assigned by the traditional credit
analysis process. Credit risk models may be used to suggest the risk premier th
at should be charged in view of the probability of loss and the size of the loss
given default. Using a mark -tomarket model, an institution may evaluate the co
sts and benefits of holding a financial asset. Unexpected losses implied by a cr
edit model may be used to set the capital charge in pricing. Instruments of Cred
it Risk Management Credit Risk Management encompasses a host of management techn
iques, which help the banks in mitigating the adverse impacts of credit risk. 1.
Credit Approving Authority Each bank should have a carefully formulated scheme
of delegation of powers. The banks should also evolve multi-tier credit approvin
g system where the loan proposals HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page
54
are approved by an Approval Grid or a Committee . The credit facilities above

a specified limit may be approved by the Grid or Committee , comprising at l
east 3 or 4 officers and invariably one officer should represent the CRMD, who h
as no volume and profit targets. Banks can also consider credit approving commit
tees at various operating levels i.e. large branches (where considered necessary
), Regional Offices, Zonal Offices, Head Offices, etc. Banks could consider dele
gating powers for sanction of higher limits to the Approval Grid or the Commi
ttee for better rated / quality customers. The spirit of the credit approving s
ystem may be that no credit proposals should be approved or recommended to highe
r authorities, if majority members of the Approval Grid or Committee do not
agree on the creditworthiness of the borrower. In case of disagreement, the spec
ific views of the dissenting member/s should be recorded. The banks should also
evolve suitable framework for reporting and evaluating the quality of credit dec
isions taken by various functional groups. The quality of credit decisions shoul
d be evaluated within a reasonable time, say 3 - 6 months, through a welldefined
Loan Review Mechanism. 2. Prudential Limits In order to limit the magnitude of
credit risk, prudential limits should be laid down on various aspects of credit:
a) Stipulate benchmark current/debt equity and profitability ratios, debt servi
ce coverage ratio or other ratios, with flexibility for deviations. The conditio
ns subject to which deviations are permitted and the authority therefore should
also be clearly spelt out in the Loan Policy; b) Single/group borrower limits, w
hich may be lower than the limits prescribed by Reserve Bank to provide a filter
ing mechanism; d) maximum exposure limits to industry, sector, etc. should be se
t up. There must also be systems in place to evaluate the exposures at reasonabl
e intervals and the limits should be adjusted especially when a pm1icular sector
or industry faces slowdown HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 55
or other sector/industry specific problems. The exposure limits to sensitive sec

tors, such as, advances against equity shares, real estate, etc., which are subj
ect to a high degree of asset price volatility and to specific industries, which
are subject to frequent business cycles, may necessarily be restricted. Similar
ly, high-risk industries, as perceived by the bank, should also be placed under
lower portfolio limit. Any excess exposure should be fully backed by adequate co
llaterals or strategic considerations. e) Banks may consider maturity profile of
the loan book, keeping in view the market risks inherent in the balance sheet,
risk evaluation capability, liquidity, etc. 3 Risk Rating Banks should have a co
mprehensive risk scoring / rating system that serves as a single point indicator
of diverse risk factors of counterparty and for taking credit decisions in a co
nsistent manner. To facilitate this, a substantial degree of standardization is
required in ratings across borrowers. The risk rating system should be designed
to reveal the overall risk of lending, critical input for setting pricing and no
n -price terms of loans as also present meaningful information for review and ma
nagement of loan portfolio. The risk rating, in short, should reflect the underl
ying credit risk of the loan book. The rating exercise should also facilitate th
e credit granting authorities some comfort in its knowledge of loan quality at a
ny moment of time. 4 Risk Pricing Risk-return pricing is a fundamental tenet of
risk management. In a risk -return setting, borrowers with weak financial positi
on and hence placed in high credit risk category should be priced high. Banks sh
ould evolve scientific systems to price the credit risk, which should have a bea
ring on the expected probability of default. The pricing of loans normally shoul
d be linked to risk rating or credit quality. The probability of default could b
e derived from the past behavior of the loan portfolio, which is the function of
loan loss provision. HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 56
Banks should build historical database on the portfolio quality and provisioning
/ charge off to equip themselves to price the risk. But value of collateral, ma
rket forces, perceived value of accounts, future business potential, portfolio/i
ndustry exposure and strategic reasons may also play important role in pricing.
Flexibility should also be made for revising the price (risk premier) due to cha
nges in rating / value of collaterals over time. Large sized banks across the wo
rld have already put in place Risk Adjusted Return on Capital (RAROC) framework
for pricing of loans, which calls for data on portfolio behavior And allocation
of capital commensurate with credit risk inherent in loan proposals. Under RAROC
framework, lender begins by charging an interest mark -up to cover the expected
loss - expected default rate of the rating category of the borrower. The lender
then allocates enough capital to the prospective loan to cover some amount of u
nexpected loss- variability of default rates. Generally, international banks all
ocate enough capital so that the expected loan loss reserve or provision plus al
located capital cover 99% of the loan loss outcomes. Portfolio Management The ex
isting framework of tracking the Non Performing Loans around the balance sheet d
ate does not signal the quality of the entire Loan Book. Banks should evolve pro
per systems for identification of credit weaknesses well in advance. Most of int
ernational banks have adopted various portfolio management techniques for gaugin
g asset quality. The CRMD, set up at Head Office should be assigned the responsi
bility of periodic monitoring of the portfolio. The portfolio quality could be e
valuated by tracking the migration (upward or downward) of borrowers from one ra
ting scale to another. This process would be meaningful only if the borrower-wis
e ratings are updated at quarterly / half-yearly intervals. Data on movements wi
thin grading categories provide a useful insight into the nature and composition
of loan book. The banks could also consider the following measures to maintain
the portfolio HETs INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 57
1) Evaluate the rating-view distribution of borrowers In vanous industry, busine

ss segments, 2) Exposure to one industry/sector should be evaluated on the basis
of overall rating distribution of borrowers in the sector/group. In this contex
t, banks should weigh the pros and cons of specialization and concentration by i
ndustry group. In cases where port folio exposure to a single industry is badly
performing, the banks may increase the quality standards for that specific indus
try;
6. Loan Review Mechanism (LRM) LRM is an effective tool for constantly evaluatin
g the quality of loan book and to bring about qualitative improvements in credit
administration. Banks should, therefore, put in place proper Loan Review Mechan
ism for large value accounts with responsibilities assigned in various areas suc
h as, evaluating the effectiveness of loan administration, maintaining the integ
rity of credit grading process, assessing the loan loss provision, portfolio qua
lity, etc. The complexity and scope of LRM normally vary based on banks size, t
ype of operations and management practices. It may be independent of the C RMD o
r even separate Department in large banks. The main objectives of LRM could be:
To identify promptly loans which develop credit weaknesses and initiate timely c
orrective action; To evaluate portfolio quality an~ isolate potential problem ar
eas; To provide information for determining adequacy of loan loss provision; To
assess the adequacy of and adherence to, loan policies and procedures, and to mo
nitor Compliance with relevant laws and regulations. To provide top management w
ith information on credit administration, including credit Sanction process, ris
k evaluation and post-sanction follow-up.

Page 58
Accurate and timely credit grading is one of the basic components of an effectiv
e LRM. Credit grading involves assessment of credit quality, identification of p
roblem loans, and assignment of risk ratings. A proper Credit Grading System sho
uld support evaluating the p0l1folio quality and establishing loan loss provisio
ns. Given the importance and subjective nature of credit rating, the credit rati
ngs awarded by Credit Administration Department should be subjected to review by
Loan Re view Officers who are independent of loan administration. The Risk Mana
gement Group of the Basle Committee on Banking Supervision has released a consul
tative paper on Principles for the Management of Credit Risk. The Paper deals wi
th various aspects relating to credit risk management. The Paper is enclosed for
information of banks. 6. Qualification and Independence The Loan Review Officer
s should have sound knowledge in credit appraisal, lending practices and loan po
licies of the bank they should also be well versed in the relevant laws/regulati
ons that affect lending activities. The independence of Loan Review Officers sho
uld be ensured and the findings of the reviews should also be reported directly
to the Board or Committee of the Board. 7. Frequency and Scope of Reviews The Lo
an Reviews are designed to provide feedback on effectiveness of credit sanction
and to identify incipient deterioration in portfolio quality. Reviews of high va
lue loans should be undertaken usually within three months of sanction /renewal
or more frequently when factors indicate a potential for deterioration in the cr
edit quality. The scope of the review should cover all loans above a cut -off li
mit. In addition, banks should also target other accounts that present elevated
risk characteristics. At least 3040% of the portfolio should be subjected to LRM
in a year to provide reasonable assurance that all the major credit risks embed
ded in the balance sheet have been tracked. Depth of Reviews HETs INSTITUTE OF MA
NAGEMENT STUDIES HUBLI Page 59
The loan reviews should focus on: Approval process; Accuracy and timeliness of c
redit ratings assigned by loan officers; Adherence to internal policies and proc
edures, and applicable laws / regulations; Compliance with loan convents; Post-s
anction follow-up; Sufficiency of loan documentation; Portfolio quality; and Rec
ommendations for improving portfolio quality The findings of Reviews should be d
iscussed with line Managers and the corrective actions should be elicited for al
l deficiencies. Deficiencies that remain unresolved should be reported to top ma
nagement. The Risk Management Group of the Basle Committee on Banking Supervisio
n has released a consultative paper on Principles for the Management of Credit R
isk. The Paper deals with various aspects relating to credit risk management. Th
e Paper is enclosed for information of banks. Early warning: Credit models are u
sed to flag potential problems in the portfolio to facilitate early corrective a
ction. Common credit language: Credit models may be used to select assets from a
pool to construct a portfolio acceptable to investors at the time of asset secu
ritization or to achieve the minimum credit quality needed to obtain the desired
credit rating. Underwriters may use such models for due diligence on the portfo
lio (such as a collateralized pool of commercial loans).
Page 60
Collection strategies: Credit models may be used in deciding on the best collect
ion or workout strategy to pursue. If, for example, a credit model indicates tha
t a borrower is experiencing short term liquidity problems rather than a decline
in credit fundamentals, then an appropriate workout may be devised. Credit Risk
Models: Approaches The literature on quantitative risk modeling has two differe
nt approaches to credit risk measurement. The first approach is the development
of statistical models through analysis of historical data. This approach was fre
quently used in the last two decades. The second type of modelling approach trie
s to capture distribution of the firm s asset -value over a period of time. The
statistical approach tries to rate the firms on a discrete or continuous scale.
The linear model introduced by Altman (1967), also known as the Z -score Model,
separates defaulting firms from non-defaulting ones on the basis of carat in fin
ancial ratios. Altman, Hartwell, and Peck (1995,1996) have modified the original
Z -score model to develop a model specific to emerging markets. This model is k
nown as the Emerging Market Scoring (EMS) model. The second type of modeling app
roach tries to capture distribution of the financial asset value over a period o
f time. This model is based on the expected default frequency (EDF) model. It ca
lculates the asset value of a film from the market value of its equity using an
option pricing based approach that recognizes equity as a call option on the und
erlying asset of the firm. It tries to estimate the asset value path of the firm
over a time horizon. The default risk is the probability of the estimated asset
value falling below a prespecified default point. This model is based conceptua
lly on Merton s (1974) contingent hassock and has been working very well for est
imating default risk in a liquid market.
Page 61
Closely related to credit risk models are portfolio risk models. In the last thr
ee years, important advances have been made in modeling credit risk in lending p
ortfolios. The new models are designed to quantify credit risk on a portfolio ba
sis, and thus are applied at the time of diversification as well as portfolio ba
sed pricing. These models estimate the loss distribution associated with the P0l
1folio and identify the risky components by assessing the risk contribution of e
ach member in the portfolio. Banks may adopt any model depending on their size,
complexity, risk bearing capacity and risk appetite, etc. However, the credit ri
sk models followed by banks should, at the least, achieve the following: 1. Resu
lt in differentiating the degree of credit risk in different credit exposures of
a bank. The system could provide for transaction -based or borrower-based ratin
g or both. It is recommended that all exposures are to be rated. Restricting ris
k measurement to only large sized exposures may fail to capture the p0l1folio ri
sk in entirety for variety of reasons. For instance, a large sized exposure for
a short time may be less risky than a small sized exposure for a long time. 2. I
dentify concentration in the portfolios 3. Identify problem credits before they
become NPAs 4. Identify adequacy/ inadequacy of loan provisions 5. Help in prici
ng of credit
6.
Recognize variations in macro-economic factors and a possible impact under alter
native scenarios
7. Determine the impact on profitability of transactions and relationship.

considerations .All credit exposures above RS 5 Crores are assigned risk waiting
assigned by domestic credit rating agencies recognized by RBI The credit risk m
anagement system at the branch level has been maped out in detail 1. Internal ra
ting based (IRB) approach the standardized approach adopted so far, provides inc
entives to banks improving their credit risk management techniques. 2. Banks may
have discretion and flexibility in defining the exposure classes, such as corpo
rate, project finance, etc. 3. Unless suitable modified, the adoption of the new
Accord in its present format would result in significant increase in the capita

OUTLOOK FOR 2010-11 The International Monetary Fund (IMF), in its World Economic
Outlook, April 2010 raised its forecast for world economic growth in 2010 to 4.
2% as against a 0.6% contraction in 2009. However, IMF forecasted that advanced
economies would not exit the global recession until the middle of 2010 and emerg
ing economies, which are increasingly driven by domestic growth factors, will co
ntinue to drive global recovery. Financial year 2010-11 started on a positive no
te for Indian economy with major macro economic parameters performing well. Indu
strial growth and exports have been showing steady increase and the continued st
rong growth in manufacturing indicates the resilience of domestic demand. A stro
ng saving and investment rate, favourable capital market conditions and improved
capital flows and positive business outlook will also help the economy towards
a faster revival. Going forward, the strong domestic demand and sustained increa
se in per capita income will ensure faster economic growth. Thrust on inclusive
growth and focus on the rural economy would propel the growth engine of the econ
omy further. Indian economy will remain one of the fastest growing economies in
the world in view of the expected recovery in agricultural production, industria
l output, demand for higher exports and the revival of global economy. The RBI i
n its Annual Monetary Policy Statement for 2010-11 placed real GDP growth for 20
10-11 at 8%, with an upward bias. The RBI envisages containing money supply (M3)
at around 17% in consonance with the outlook on growth and inflation. While agg
regate deposits of SCBs are projected to grow at 18%, adjusted non-food credit i
s likely to record a growth of 20% during 2010-11, as indicated by the RBI. The
annual policy also endeavors to contain inflation at a benign level of 5.5%, wit
h a medium term goal of 3%.

Findings
1. The proposed standardized Basel2 to approach does not fits the needs of small
er banking organization engaged primarily traditional banking. 2. The current no
r proposed capital frameworks yet address what is perhaps the most critical risk
factor for the smaller banks - geographic and sect oral concentrations of credi
t risk. 3. Internal ratting based approach provides positive incentives to banks
in improving their credit risk management techniques. 4. Banks may have discret
ion and flexibility in defining the exposure classes that which corporate, proje
ct finance, etc. 5. Unless suitably modified the adoption of the new accord in i
ts present format would result in significant increase in the capital charge for
bank. 6. Additional cost of capital will increase to the bank and bank may go f
or capital market to raise the found. 7. Bank as well documented schemes delegat
ion powers for credit sanction.
Page 92
LIMITATIONS
1. The study restricted to only one branch. 2. The time constraint was a limitin
g factor, as more time required carrying 0 ut study on other aspects of the topi
c. 3. Due to secrecy it is difficult obtain actual facts and figures of advances
of branches.
suggestion
1. The bank will now have to adopt the credit risk assessment system which is an
international standard specified for the banking system. 2. Due to increased se
nsitivity towards risk under the new norms, the risk will come down significantl
y. This will lead to an increase in the regulatory capitalization levels, which
will increase the cost of capital, which may be passed on to the customers. 3 Th
e banks will have to exercise due care in maintaining the portfolio of risk asse
ts
in order not to increase unduly the required regulatory capitalization level. Th
is may in turn in duce conservatism in the bank in taking of risky portfolio of
advances, a danger they have to guard against. It will indeed be a delicate bala
ncing task.

Conclusion
The variability of return around the expected average is thus a quantitative des
cription of risk .Moreover, this measure of risk is simply a proxy for risk beca
use other measures cud be used. The total variance is the rate of return on a st
ock around the expected average that includes both systematic and unsystematic r
isk.
