INTRODUCTION

KASAPI- Kaagapay sa Pangkanuhayan Lending, Inc. (KKPLI) started to operate as

group and individual lending through Pangkabuhayan Group Loan Program which caters group

clients; and Pangkabuhayan Individual Loan Program which provides product and services for

individual borrowers.

Like in KASAPI Microfinance & Rural Development Inc. (KMRDI), the loans of KKPLI

clients are based on the capacity to pay (cash flow) and their character (attitude in payment).

KKPLI may also require safekeeping of collaterals for security purposes depending on the loan

amount of the client.

Now, KASAPI – Lending opens windows for other products and services which clients can

avail. KASAPI – Lending loan programs are divided into two groups. One group is for income-

generating activities for potential entrepreneur clients while the other group of programs is

provided to KKPLI members for other helpful purposes.

Strength and Weaknesses Analysis

Analysis is the study of the strengths and weaknesses within the lending institutions and

their credit and collection policies. This will be done by the researchers to synthesize strategies

for improving the credit and collection policies, standards and practices of the lending institution.

Strengths is the advantageous or even unique skill, competency, or service that the lending

institution possesses that allows it to create competitive advantages. A weakness is a strategic

disadvantage, such as skill that the lending institution lacks which limits it and creates potential

risks in negative economic conditions.

STRENGTHS

Stable cash handling. The KASAPI LENDING BRANCH has an effective policy in

handling cash.

Low interest rate. The low interest of their loan programs attract borrowers which are

fixed at 4.5%, and it is below the market-based interest rate. Lending interest rate (%) was

reported at 7.843 in 2018, according to the World Bank collection of development indicators,

compiled from officially recognized sources.

Wide operations. According to our interview, they have also clients outside the city.

Some are from Bauang, Naguilian, San Juan, Luna etc. They provide sustainable and client

responsive solutions to the greater number of Filipino not just here in the city but all in the

province.

Prompt approval and disbursement of their program loans. After the approval of the

Branch Manager, it will be passed to the cashier for the releasing of loan, there is on time
 20

processing credit line – up to processing of credit application only takes three days unlike other

lending institutions which takes a week.

Accurate record of their credit and collection policies and procedures. The KASAPI

– LENDING Branch has a formal manual book of the credit and collection activities, features,

policies, and procedures for them to master and understand well. This could be the basis to

present its policies and procedures to the customers who wants to avail a loan.

WEAKNESSES

No penalties for SKY Direct loan program. The KASAPI– LENDING doesn’t give

the customers. They do not offer other loan programs because there are certain processes to

follow and accomplish before the company will grant these loans to the customers.

RECOMMENDATONS

1. The KASAPI Lending should give penalty on SkyDirect loan for them to generate

income in this program. The company should give different penalty rates on each type of

programs because all programs have the same penalty rate. The company should increase

the penalty rate on the program that has a large loan size.

2. The KASAPI LENDING should give an interest rate on the Rice Consumption Loan

Program. Giving interest rate on this program helps the company increase its income and

the company will able to expand its programs to be offered to its valued customers.

3. The KASAPI LENDING should minimize the customer requirements to attract them to

apply loans they want to avail and promote customer retention policy to attain long-term

relationship to the customers who are good payers.

4. The KASAPI LENDING should offer additional programs to the customers like housing

loan, car loan, doctors loan, pensioners loan, and personal loan-land based. These loans

could be helpful to the company to generate higher revenue. The more programs they will

offer to the customers, the higher the income they will get.
