Credit Appraisal
(An Overview)

CREDIT APPRAISAL:-

The core area of activity of a commercial bank is accepting deposit from public and Lending to Public
and making investments. In addition to that other tertiary services are there as defined in Banking
Regulation Act.
Lending or Credit delivery has various dynamics which can be divided into two major parts viz. Asset
Acquisition and Asset Maintenance. Credit portfolio is an asset for any bank, and its acquisition requires
due diligence and a proper appraisal. Bank is utilizing the public deposit toward lending to public or
making investments and it is the paramount duty of the Banks to thoroughly appraise the credit proposal
and then take a decision so that the risk is minimized and quality credit portfolio grows.
As per the present norms any loan where the overdue is more than 90 days old will be treated as Non
Performing Assets and the bank will not recognize the interest charged in the said NPA account unless
actually recovered and they have to make provisions against the NPAs. These two things affect the
profitability of the banks directly. Therefore a sound Credit Appraisal and Post sanction follow up along
with Risk Management Approach is necessary for a healthy credit portfolio of any bank.
Punjab National Bank has developed a very sound system of credit appraisal and risk management.
There is a detailed guideline for post sanction follow up (asset maintenance) also.
I had made a study of the credit appraisal techniques adopted by PNB and the post sanctions follow up
guidelines of the bank. The risk management policy is also covered in my study. Apart from the
theoretical aspects one case study has also been included.

PRE SANCTION APPRAISAL

Whenever a proposal is received by the bank, the Key areas that are assessed by the bank for granting
loan are as under:-

PROMOTERS: - The Entrepreneurs who form the company are known as Promoters .It is they who
conceive the idea of forming the company or the business concern .The bank takes this factor of
promoters as one of the most important one because it is the promoters who lay the foundation of the
business of the company. Bank also takes into consideration their experience, whether they have been
engaged in such type of industry or not. Promoters with high experience are better because they know
the working mechanism of the industry and can successfully manage their company. The man behind the
show is very important as there are many success stories which prove that even in adverse circumstances
by sheer labour, perception and commitment of the promoters the company survives. The bank also
studies the qualification of the promoters to ascertain whether the company is self sufficient or it has to
hire the professional from outside for e.g.-: a doctor is not enough qualified and capable to run an iron
and steel factory. On the other side he can successfully handle a hospital business. Also the experience is
considered while taking a decision on sanction loan amount and margins. The bank investigates the past
record of the promoters to confirm that there has been nothing is adverse against the promoters and the
promoters have not indulged in any unlawful activity or they are not defaulters to any bank in earlier
loans.
PROMOTERS FINANCIAL STRENGTH:-The bank also assesses the financial strength of the
promoters, what are their immovable property, what are their net worth and how far they are financially
sound .The bank also prepares the confidential report of each promoters for assessing their personal
worth and their market reputation .If the bank is satisfied with the promoters the further processing takes
place. However all the parameters discussed here is concurrent in nature and the assessments on all
issues are done on a parallel basis.

COMPANYS FINANCIAL POSITION: - The bank analyses the financial position of the company as
a whole. The Balance sheets, P/L A/c, Cash Flow and Fund Flow statement are required for assessing the
financial strength of the company. They calculate the various ratios to see the trend of the companys
growth .They critically assess the balance sheet for determining the true financial position. They
calculate Cash Flow and Fund Flow for ascertaining the availability of cash/fund for short and long term
requirement. The Fund Flow statement also indicates the movement of funds from long term to short
term and from short term to long term. To assess the companys financial position, the bank sees the
following points:
(a)SALES: - Its the most important indicator of financial position of the company. The bank analyses
the sales of past 3- 5 years and studies the trend .If the sales are increasing then what are the rate of
growth of sales. If it is increasing at decreasing rate then what are the reasons for deviations. The future
sales are analysed keeping in view the capacity utilisation and probable demand of that product. Sales
are an important indicator of the companys financial position because ultimately this will decide the
profitability also.
(b)NET WORTH - Besides seeing the promoters net worth the bank also sees the companys net worth
to determine their loan amount. The companys net worth is the Capital and Reserve & Surplus less
Intangible Assets. The purpose of assessing the net worth is to determine the promoters contribution in
the project.
(c)LIQUIDITY:-By liquidity, we mean the organisational ability to meet liabilities in short term. The
bank measure the liquidity ratios to measures the firms ability to meet short term current obligation. It is
very important that a firm should maintain its liquidity because the short term success is a prerequisite
for long term survival. The company should maintain a proper liquidity so that the company manages the
working capital easily which is necessary for running the business. Under liquidity ratios the bank
calculates the following ratios:
(i) CURRENT RATIO (CA/CL):-The current ratio of a firm measures its liquidity that is its ability to
meet short term obligations. The benchmark current ratio is 1.33:1, because the promoters contribution
towards current assets is 25%.
(ii)ACID-TEST/QUICK RATIO (CA-INVENTORIES/CL-BANK O/D):-The acid-test ratio is the
ratio between quick current assets and current liabilities and is calculated by dividing the quick assets by
the current liabilities. The benchmark acid test ratio is 1:1. This ratio indicates that even when there is
large stock holding and sales are not taking place what is the position of the company liquidity.
(d)SOLVENCY: - It shows firms ability to pay its long term debts in time .It shows the proportion of
debt and equity in financing the firm assets. The bank is highly interested in solvency of the firm .The
bank judge the soundness of the firm on the basis of long term financial strength measured in terms of its
ability to pay the interest regularly as well as repay the instalment of the principal on due dates. Under
leverage ratios the bank calculates the following ratios:(i)Debt Equity ratio (Long term debts/shareholders fund):-It measures the ratio of long term
or total debt to shareholders equity. This ratio shows the percentage of owners equity to long
term outsiders liability. From the firms point of view higher debt equity ratio is better but for
outsiders like bank lower ratio is considerable.
(ii)Interest coverage ratio:-It measures the firms ability to make contractual interest payments.

(iii)Debt service coverage ratio:-DSCR is the ability of a firm to make the contractual payments
required on a basis over the life of the debt. This ratio is used in case of term loan.
(iv)Proprietary ratio:-It indicates the extent to which assets are financed by owners funds.
(v)Dividend coverage ratio:-It measures the ability of a firm to pay dividend on preference
shares which carry a stated rate of return.
(vi)Capital gearing ratio:-It shows the relationship
income bearing funds.

between equity funds and fixed

(e)Profitability :-It shows the earning capacity of the organisation .The operating efficiency of a firm
and its ability to ensure adequate returns to its shareholders depends ultimately on the profit earned by
it .The profitability ratios are calculated to provide assures to questions such as:
(i)Is the profit earned by the firm adequate?
(ii)What rate of return does it represent?
(iii)What is the rate of profit for various division and segments of the firm?
(iv)What is the earning per share?
(v)What was the amount paid in dividend?
The bank measures profitability ratios in order to ensure that company is gaining sufficient profit
and able to pay its dividend and debt in the right time. Various ratios under profitability are as
follows:(i)Gross profit margin (Gross profit/sales):-It measures the percentage of each sales rupee
remaining after the firm has paid for its goods.
(ii)Net profit margin (Net profit/sales):-It measures the percentage of each sales rupee
remaining after all costs and expenses including interest and taxes have been deducted.
(iii)Return on total assets:-It is the net earnings available to owners and interest to lenders as
assets are financed by owners as well as creditors. It is used for both term loan and working
capital requirements.
(iv)Return on investments:-It measures the overall effectiveness of management in generating
profit with its available assets.
(v)Return on equity: - It measures the return on the owners investment in the firm.
All the above ratios are calculated in terms of historical data and the projections. The banks
calculate these ratios in order to ascertain their ability to meet their short and long term obligation
and also ascertain their profit margin in order to see whether sufficient margin is earned by the
company or not.
The above aspects are of core importance for any Project Appraisal. However the financial analysis and
promoters background or their capacity to consume credit is not the only aspect which covers the
complete project appraisal. We now discuss the various issues which form part of a comprehensive credit

appraisal at the pre sanction stage and only after they satisfy the banks guidelines the final decision for
sanction of loan is taken.
(a)Technical appraisal
(b)Commercial appraisal
(c)Economic appraisal
(d)Managerial appraisal
(e)Financial appraisal

Technical appraisal:The technical appraisal on the following aspects is done by the Dy. Manager/Manager/Senior
Manager, Industry, posted in the bank based on the data submitted by the company:

Manufacturing process/Technology
Technical Arrangements
Size of the plant
Product Mix
Selection of plant and machinery
Plant layout
Location of the project
Density of industry
Innovations and technology
Technical diversification
Feasibility of the product

If the proposal is found to be technically feasible then only bank takes it up for further study.

Commercial Appraisal:
Sales

Demand forecasting
-Import substitution
-Past & future trends
-End- use
-Export market
-Correlation and regression

Global and future prospects of the business

Supply competition
Pricing policy

Current market position


Life cycle of the product
Brand name of the product

Efficient and economical production

Large scale production

Availability of manpower, raw material and other factors of production

MANAGEMENT APPRAISAL:

Form of organisation
-Proprietorship
-Partnership
-Private/public limited company
-Trust/society etc.

Organizational set up: The companies in SME sector are mostly family run business
enterprises. In large corporate sector the organisational set up is well defined. The bank assesses
the ability of the managing promoters to run the organisation and also discusses the level of
involvement of professionals.
Management problems: In most of the cases of SME sector the promoters are the main resource
in all the activities. Bank mostly faces the problems of management of the organisation in this
sector. In large corporate sector the problems are all the same as seen at the industry level.
Quality of entrepreneurs
-Integrity
-Involvement in the project
-Financial resources

Term Loan

Capital cost of
-Land and site development
-Building
-Plant and machinery
-Engineering and consultation fees
-Margin for working capital

Means of financing
-List of sources:-Promoters contribution, other debts & loan from bank

-Details of each sources of finance-:


Promoters contribution: - It includes owners capital, reserves, retained earnings, surplus
etc. It is the major source of finance for a business. It is of utmost concern to the outside
parties especially for bank because it decides the owners contribution in the project.
Unsecured loans: - A firm acquires both secured and unsecured loans from outside.
Secured loan is provided by banks and other financial institutions and they are secured
by assets or immovable property. The rate of unsecured loan is higher than that of
secured loans.
Share application money: - It is the part of current liabilities. It is the amount of money
paid by the person to become a shareholder of the company.
Debenture: - It is a kind of long term debt. The company issues debentures for raising
the funds. After a fixed period of time company redeems these debentures.
Loan from bank: - It is also the source of finance for the business. Bank provides the
loan at a reasonable rate and also helps in taking correct financial decision .This may be
short term or long term loan.

-Break-even point:-

A very important tool to determine resilience


Fixed costs x Sales/ (Sales Variable costs)
Sensitivity to BEP
Sensitivity to DSCR

-Ratio analysis: As discussed at the beginning.


-Sensitivity analysis:- The bank makes +/- study of major factors of production to understand its
sensitivity towards sales,profits,DSCR etc. The bank studies the sensitivity analysis by increasing
raw-material price by 5% and reducing sales price by5%. On the aforesaid situation, DSCR is
checked. If it indicates that the unit shall be able to withstand adverse price situation then it is
considered good.

RISK MANAGEMENT: After the implementation of Basel I and II every assets has a risk
weightage. To assess and mitigate risks the bank has developed its model and it has a risk
management policy. Every account undergoes an online risk rating.
RISK RATING:-The bank adopts its own criteria for giving the risk rating. The bank has
developed its own software which assesses credit risk parameter. It has 6 category under which
various parameters are given. They are basically:(i)

Future risk

(ii)

Subjective Assessment of financial

(iii)

Adjustment for financial trend

(iv)

Business and industry evaluation

(v)

Management evaluation

(vi)

Account evaluation

Each sub category under category has standard weights. The bank measures the weight of the
organization as a whole and compare it with standard and finds the deviation if any. Then reasons

are searched for the deviations and their explanations are mentioned. The bank then provides the
weighted average risk and then decides whether to accept the proposal or not.
RISK PRICING:-Interest rates are based upon the risk weight age of the company as per risk
management policy. There are 8 categories of risk weight.ie: AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB, B, C&D.
Based on the risk rating of the company, Interest rates are determined. This is known as risk
pricing .e.g.:- If the co. Is having AAA then interest rates will be low and the company is having
excellent market credit, superior assets, excellent debt capacity and coverage.

Risk Mitigation: Banks opt for collateral securities to cover the loan amount which in turn
mitigates the risk.
Focus on:

IRR/NPV
Schedule of implementation
Gearing/ Liquidity.
Moratorium/ Repayment

Working Capital
Focus on

Volumes/ Sales growth


Operating efficiency
Liquidity
Gearing
Quality of current assets.
Efficiency in asset turnover.

Methods of WC Assessment

NAYAK COMMITTEE - : Working capital:-According to Nayak committee/simplified


method:
- Under SSI up to 5 crores.
- Other up to 2 crores.
Calculation under NAYAK COMMITTEE:(1)Working capital requirement is 25% of sales.
(2)Minimum promoters margin is 20% of WCR i.e. 5% of sales.
(3)Permissible bank finance: 1-2
Ex: -

Sales
WCR

100
25 (25% of sale)

Margin

05 (20% of WCR)

PBF

20(Permissible
Bank finance)

OPERATING CYCLE METHOD & WORKING CAPITAL GAP METHOD (based on


TANDON committee model): -Holding of raw-materials, finished goods and semi industrial
products.

PBF calculation under this method:


1. Total Current Asset
2. Less Other current liability (Excluding Bank finance)
3. Working Capital requirement (1-2)
4. Minimum margin: 25% of TCA
5. PBF : 3-4
The total current assets are based on the holding period required for the company and the operating
cycle.
Ex:1. Total Current Asset
2. Less Other current liability

100

Operating Cycle

CASH FLOW METHOD: - For special types of business requirement which is based on the
future cash flow only, like future lease financing.
We again wish to mention here that ratio analysis is an integral part of working capital
finance also.

Financial Analysis
What are we looking at?

Manufacturing efficiency
Operating efficiency
Is it turning over the assets efficiently
Yield pattern
Appropriation of yield
Liquidity to meet day to day operations

What is the quality of current assets


Can the unit sustain in difficult times
Can it service our interest and repayments

Effective appraisal: An effective appraisal includes all the above points which are either a part of
Techno Economic Viability or the Management aspect. Any appraisal to be called as effective need to be:

Authentic
Brief
Analysis-correctly interpreted
Exceptions only
SWOT analysis :- To assess the overall position of the project and the promoters the bank is
required to make the swot analysis and submit its report which includes:-

STRENGTHS:-The strong points in favour of the organisation and the project are mentioned in
order to show that organization has a good reputation and it can repay the loan amount in right
time. The strong points of the organization shows excellent business credit, superior assets
quality, liquidity, excellent debt capacity and coverage.

WEAKNESS:-Perceived weakness is mentioned and the real solution to the problem is also
mentioned.

OPPORTUNITIES:-The prospects of the organisation are mentioned. The prospect of the


development of the product or the organisation in the economy is assessed and the opportunities
are mentioned for the firm. It also shows the efficiency of organisation to capitalise opportunities.
It also gives an idea of global and future aspect of the organisation.

THREAT:-Potential threats against the organisation are identified and their possible solutions
are also sought for the better of the organisation. Some of the threats are:-cut throat competition,
escalating prices, scarcity of factors of production, incapable management etc.

Sanctioning of Loan

In PNB the sanctioning of loan is at various stages. Powers are delegated in a very structured manner
which is decentralised and keeping in view the business requirement and the level of Managers working
in different scales.

Our study pertains to the loans under the powers of Circle Head and above. At this stage the proposal is
received from the branches and after the pre sanction appraisal is done at Circle office on the above
mentioned points the Credit Departments places the proposal with their recommendation before the
credit committee which comprises of different functional heads and the Chief Managers in form of a
standard credit appraisal format popularly known as Board Note.

RECOMMENDATIONS & SANCTION:- The credit committee goes through the proposal in
detail and thereafter recommends the same for final sanction before the sanctioning authority as
per terms and conditions of the bank.

POST-SANCTION FOLLOW UP
As discussed earlier Asset Management is of Prime Importance in any business activities. In
banking sector it has gained too much importance after the implementation of Prudential norms
since 1991. PNB is having a sound policy for this purpose which we discuss hereunder.

a) Documentation Vetting of Loan Documents


Bank has in place a system of Vetting of Loan Documents from the approved advocate in case of
borrowal accounts, with sanctioned limits of Rs. 5 crore & above (both fund based and non-fund based).
The system is followed meticulously.

b) Legal Compliance Certificate


Under this system, for all credit limits of Rs.10 lakh & above, branches submit legal compliance
certificate, certifying the compliance of all the formalities contained therein. Pending formalities, if any,
are reported in terms of extant guidelines and are submitted in respect of all fresh sanctions/
enhancement/renewal, to the respective controlling office, within the stipulated time.

c) Ensuring end-use of funds


In order to ensure end-use of funds it has lent. The Bank does not depend entirely on the end-use
certificates issued by the Chartered Accountants but on its internal controls and the Credit Risk
Management System which enhance the quality of the loan portfolio. Some of the illustrative measures
that are taken by the branches to ensure end-use of funds are:
I.
II.

Meaningful scrutiny of quarterly progress reports/operating statements, balance sheets of the


borrowers;
Regular inspection of borrowers assets charged to the Bank as security;

III.

Periodical scrutiny of borrowers books of accounts:;

IV.

Periodical visits to the assisted units;

V.

System of periodical stock audit, in case of working capital finance;

d) Loan Review Mechanism


It is an effective tool for constantly evaluating the quality and risk of loan book of the bank and to bring
about qualitative improvements in credit administration.
The Credit Audit and Review system covers all borrowal accounts beyond a threshold limits and
identifies weak accounts. Under the system independent team of Credit Auditors examines the credit
process.
Credit audit facilitates focusing the attention about overall assessment of the borrowal entity. Loan
Review Mechanism has been made applicable to all loan accounts in standard category having total
exposure of Rs. 5.00 crore & above and identified High Risk accounts having total exposure of Rs. 1
crore & above.
In case of higher value accounts with total exposure of Rs. 50 crore & above and having risk rating of
(PNB-BB) or below, Follow Up Credit Audit is done after 6 months is being done.

e) Preventive Monitoring System (PMS)


Bank has introduced Preventive monitoring system for large borrowal accounts. The system is
applicable to all borrowal accounts having sanctioned limits (FB plus NFB) above Rs. 1 crore in CBS
branches and above Rs. 12 crore in other branches. The model for PMS has also been placed in central

server environment. This system is a dynamic system for tracking the health and conduct of borrowal
accounts to capture the signals of early warning. Timely decision should be taken on the future course of
action in the borrowal accounts depending upon PMS rank.

f) Stock Audit
Bank has a policy to conduct annual stock audit (including book debts) for all accounts with fund based
working capital limits of Rs.5 crore and above whether standard or NPAs, which is followed by the
branches. Further, in respect of borrowers enjoying fund based limits of less than Rs. 5 crore, the extant
guidelines for getting the stock audit done in emergent cases and/or, wherever banks interest demands,
with prior concurrence of ZM is done.
Annual Stock Audit should is compulsorily conducted in all accounts with risk rating B & below and
enjoying fund based working capital limits of Rs. 1 crore and above.
In cases of Consortium/Multiple Financing where the borrower is enjoying working capital limits (fund
based) of less than Rs. 5 crore from the Bank and Rs. 20 crore and above in aggregate from the banking
system, branches take up with lead bank/major share-holder banks in multiple banking arrangement for
getting the stock audit conducted. The final decision regarding stock audit in the account, however, is
based on the consensus amongst the member banks.
Further, in BB to AAA* risk rated accounts, which signify lower risk, GM-Credit, Head Office
may permit exemption for conducting of Stock Audit.

g) Recovery in Loans
After the introduction of NPA norms and capital adequacy requirements, Recovery has assumed greater
importance. Hence at all levels, meticulous follow up continued to ensure that the recovery is made in
terms of sanction and the targets fixed for recovery are achieved.

7.A (iv) Comments on Financial Indicators (growth, achievement vis--vis estimate)

Comments on financials

Growth: Growth of the firm is increasing gradually. In the FY 2004-05, there is negative growth
of 39.9% over the previous FY due to irregularity in export orders from countries like Malaysia,
Thailand, and Bangladesh Railways.
The domestic sales have been more of less stable in all the years. There is positive growth of 26%
in FY 2005-06 & 6.42% in FY 2006-07 over their previous years.

Profitability: Profit after tax in FY 2006-07 is negative by amount of Rs. Two & half lac,
although there were no cash losses and the PBT is positive. During the FY 2006-07, Company
has executed certain jobs other than Railway, which involved procurement of entire material
from Companys own fund, which resulted increase in the cost of purchase of raw material and
consumption, where as during the year 2005-06, total sale was out of rail supplied by Indian
Railway. Over and above, escalation clause allowed in purchase order was supposed to be raised
during the year but due to non-availability of price index from the Railway, Company could not
raise escalation bill amounting to Rs. 68 Lacs. The same has been raised during the current
financial year, resulted decrease in profitability in comparison to earlier year.
During the current financial year Company received contract from private parties amounting to
Rs. 400 Lacs having substantial margin over and above order received from Railway. This order
will have to be executed by March 2008.This will ensure increase in profitability of current
financial year.

Liquidity: The Company is in comfortable position to meet their current liabilities. Since
company was under construction, hence investment in fixed assets led to the decreasing the value
of current assets, resulting reduction in NWC compared to previous year. Although it is at present

1.32 as on 31.03.2007, which has further improved on 30.09.2007. In the coming year it is in
comfortable position.

Solvency: The long-term solvency of the company is very comfortable at present, which is
evident from low debt equity ratio. The TOL/TNW ratio is also low, suggesting better overall
solvency position of the company.
The amount of unsecured loan was converted in to share capital.
Hence amount of unsecured loan decreased.

BM has further informed that as on 31.12.2007, share capital of the company is Rs.131.3 Lacs and
including the share premium accounts the amount as on 31.12.2007 is Rs.271.88 lacs. There will be
subsequent infusion of capital and unsecured loan till 31.03.2008. Position of actual share capital and
unsecured loan and R&S vis--vis projections are as under:Rs.in lacs

From the above table, it can be observed that the present net owned fund of Rs. 1210 Lacs, which is
49.44 Lacs short from the projected level ( i.e. Rs.682.24 lacs+Rs.577.29 lacs= 1259.53 lacs). The
promoters of the company are arranging further fund to meet this shortfall and will complete the project
by the end of the current financial year.

Debt Service: The present track record of the firm is good. The average DSCR is coming at 1.66
( excluding the DSCR for the last year of repayment which is quite high).

vii Comments on all major technical aspects like location advantage, Technology/
manufacturing process, power, man power, utilities, transportation, etc.

The company is situated at the Adityapur Industrial Area, which is the industrial hub of the
state. They have advantage in having backward forward linkage and technical support as Jamshedpur
is a fully industrial township.

Process:

The raw material for pipe manufacturing process is slitted HR coils of suitable sizes, which is supplied
by M/s. Tata Steel, Jamshedpur. The coils are fed to the decoiler unit. The coils pass through forming
section, cluster section, fin section, seam guide section, welding section, ironing section, sliding section,
sizing stand and finally turk head stand.

Initially the coils pass through end shear, butt welding set where next coil is butt welded as per
requirement of length of finished pipes. After getting welded, the coils are passed through leveling and
pinch rolls. The coils are then allowed to pass through vertical cage where the coils are getting
accumulated and from here the coils are fed to stands. The coils are passed through forming, cluster
section. fin stand and seam guide, where the rollers of different sizes, profiles and inclination are
installed as per the specification of end product. The coils get the shape of tube with open slit at the top.
Then the welding unit comes into play and open seam is heated by HP induction generator. Immediately
after heating, the edges of the pipes are forged or fused in the squeezing unit and it takes the shape of
complete pipe. The pipe is then passed through cooling unit, where the weld formed pipe is cooled to
ambient temperature. The welded pipe thus prepared is slightly of oversize. To get rid of this problem,
the welded pipe is then passed through sizing unit, where with the help of rolls and dies the pipe is made
to the exact size as per the requirement. After this the pipe is allowed to pass through turks heads, where
the pipe get straightened. The pipes are passed through Non Destructive Testing unit, where with the
help of eddy currents the defects are marked and the required length of pipe is cut and rejected to
separate pockets.

The pipes are then cut into required sizes and collected in pockets. Thereafter the pipes are sent to end
facing and beveling machine. After beveling, the pipes are ready for dispatch.

Water availability:
Presently the firm is having one deep boring, which is quite sufficient to meet the requirement of plant
and for drinking & sanitation purpose. The manufacturing process does not require significant quantity
of water.

Raw Material:
The raw material for the process of tube manufacturing is slit HR coils, which is supplied by M/s. Tata
Steel, Jamshedpur. The proximity of raw material is very easy as supplier and recipient are in same city.
The firm has entered into an agreement with M/s. Tata Steel for supply of raw material and then finished
goods shall be supplied the them.

Land & Building:


Adityapur Industrial Development Authority at Industrial Area Adityapur has allotted the firm the land
measuring approx 8.60 acres.

viii) Comments on product marketing with particular reference to industry position


Product & Market:

Its tube division is presently engaged in tube manufacturing, with a capacity to manufacture more than
50000 MT per annum. The proposed tube mill is engaged in manufacturing circular pipes of sizes
varying from 4 NB to 14 NB and corresponding sizes of square/ rectangular cross sectional structural
as per ISI and API standards. The firm has entered into an agreement with M/s. Tata Steel for processing
of slitting HR coils to required diameters as per technical specifications initially for 36 months with
further renewable up to 24 months. M/s. Tata Steel shall be requiring around 3500 to 5000MT of piping
materials per month from the firm. The non circular pipes of different sections are basically meant for
construction purpose, now a days required for modern construction activities especially in modern
airports and some new high profile construction.

SWOT Analysis:
Strength:

The company has successfully installed its machineries and it has started its commercial production.

The job activity is basically conversion activity for M/s. Tata Steel. Hence the companys customer
base is already established. It does not have to go for another customers for its products. They have
an agreement for sale and conversion with Tata Steel.
The company is having very well technically qualified workforce in its operation and maintenance
team.
The additional CNC plano milling machine shall add value to its products in quality and quantity as
well in Unit I.
The promoters are very resourceful and experienced in this field.

Weakness:
There is no provision for alternate power.
The firm shall be totally dependent on power supply of 33 KV from JSEB.
Mitigation: Jusco is coming with power in Adityapur.
Opportunities:

Government is trying to boost up industrial sector by providing road and basic infrastructure.

Threat:

As far as tube division is concerned, the business of the company is totally dependent on the work
orders from M/s. Tata Steel.
Mitigation: The company has got the 36 months of agreement for supply to Tata Steel

REDIT RISK MANAGEMENT

CREDIT RISK
Credit risk is the possibility of loss associated with changes in the credit quality of the borrowers and
counter parties. The counter parties may include an individual, small & medium enterprise, corporate,
bank, financial institution, or a sovereign. In a banks portfolio, losses stem from outright default due to

inability or unwillingness of a borrower or counter party to honour commitments in relation to lending,


settlement and other financial transactions.
There are seven categories of credit risk:
Lending
Contingent
Issuer
Pre-settlement
Settlement
Country/transfer
and Other

Understanding Credit Risk Decisions


Most banks utilize some variation of The Five C's of Credit" when making credit decisions Character, Capacity, Capital, Conditions, and Collateral.

Character
Banks want to put their money with clients who have the best credentials and references. The way they
treat their employees and customers, the way they take responsibility, their timeliness in fulfilling
obligations defines the borrowers character.

Capacity
What is the company's borrowing history and track record of repayment? How much debt can the
company handle? Will they be able to honor the obligation and repay the debt? There are numerous
financial benchmarks such as debt and liquidity ratios that banks use before advancing funds.

Capital
How well capitalized is the company? How much money have they invested in the business? Banks want
to see that they have a financial commitment; that they have put themselves at risk in the company.

Conditions
What are the current economic conditions and how does the company fit in? If the business is sensitive
to economic downturns, the bank wants to know that they are good at managing productivity and
expenses.

Collateral
While cash flow will nearly always be the primary source of repayment of a loan, bankers look at what
they call a secondary source of repayment. Collateral represents assets that the company pledges as an
alternate repayment source for the loan. Hard assets. Most collateral is in the form of real estate and
office or manufacturing equipment. Accounts receivable and inventory can also be pledged as collateral.
Unless a business is with a proven payments track record, it will almost always be required to pledge
collateral.

Credit Risk Management Structure in PNB


The credit risk management framework consists of the following structures:
1.

Risk Management Division (RMD)

2.

Risk Management Committee (RMC)

3.

Credit Risk Management Committee (CRMC)

4.

Credit committee

5.

Credit Audit Review Division (CARD)

Risk Management Division (RMD)


The RMD is headed by CGM and its different functions are
Framing of policies related to market and credit risk, development of systems & models for
identifying, measuring and managing credit risks and their implementation;
Study and management of industry risk;
Development of methodology for operational risk;
Integrated risk management functions.
Credit Risk Management Departments have also been formed at Zonal levels to facilitate speedy
implementation of Risk management related policies of the bank.

Risk Management committee (RMC)


It is a Sub-Committee of Board with overall responsibility of formulating policies/procedures and
managing all the risks. It shall adopt integrated approach in managing all the risks.
The RMC presently comprises of the following members:

Chairman and Managing Director


Executive Director
RBI Nominee Director
GOI Nominee Director
Two Director nominated by Board
CGM-RMD (Convener),
CGM-I&AD, GM-Treasury, two external experts

Credit Risk Management Committee (CRMC)


It is a top level Committee headed by CMD and comprises of ED, GMs of Credit Department, Treasury,
Risk Management, etc. as per the directives from RBI. Its specific responsibilities are as under:

Responsible for implementation of credit risk policy/ strategy approved by the board/ RMC.
Monitor credit risk on a bank wide basis and ensure compliance of limits approved by the
board/ RMC.
Recommend to the Board for its approval, policies on standards for presentation of credit
proposal, financial covenants, rating standards and benchmarks.
Devise delegation of credit approving powers, prudential limits on large credit exposures,
asset concentration, standards for loan collaterals, portfolio management, loan review
mechanism, risk concentration, risk monitoring and evaluation, pricing of loans,
provisioning, regulatory/ legal compliance, etc.

Formation of Credit Committees:


The bank has introduced Grid/Committee system in credit sanction process wherein every loan
proposal falling beyond a threshold limit is discussed in a credit committee, which, on the merit of the
case, recommends the proposal to the sanctioning authority. Such committees have been formed both at
HO and ZO levels. The credit committee includes members from Risk Management Division and Credit
Administration Division. The committee deliberates upon the credit risk rating of the borrower, risk
specific to the borrower, risk in the industry and suggests mitigation thereof.

Credit Audit Review Division (CARD)


Bank has also set up a loan review/audit mechanism to be looked after independently by CARD. It
reviews borrowal accounts having exposure of Rs. 5.00 crore and above (Rs.1 crore & above in case of
weak accounts).

CREDIT RISK POLICY & STRATEGY


The bank has devised a robust risk management strategy which:
Aims to provide basic framework for implementation of sound credit risk management system in
the bank
Deals with various areas of credit risk, goals to be achieved, current practices and future
strategies.
Helps to implement the Standardized Approach of credit risk, as prescribed by Reserve Bank of
India in its draft guidelines, yet the bank shall continue its journey towards adopting Internal
Rating Based Approaches.
As such, the credit policy deals with short term implementation as well as long term approach to credit
risk management. The policy of the bank embodies in itself the areas of risk identification, risk

measurement, risk grading techniques, reporting and risk control systems /mitigation techniques,
documentation practice and the system for management of problem loans.
The standardized approach basically requires the banks to do the following:

a) Asset Classification
As prescribed by RBI in its draft report, the exposure needs to be grouped under sub heads viz. domestic
Sovereign, foreign Sovereign,
Public Sector Enterprises (PSE), Multi Development Banks (MDB),
Bank for International Settlement (BIS), IMF, Banks,
Primary Dealers, Corporate,
Regulatory Retail portfolio, secured by residential property,
Secured by commercial real estate, Non performing assets,
Other Assets, Off balance sheet items.
Different risk weights shall be applied for above classifications depending upon ratings assigned by
External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAI).
While 100% risk weight is to be provided to un-rated exposure, risk weight of 20% to 150% is to be
applied to rated exposure based on rating by ECAI.
However, flat risk weights shall be applied to certain categories like, regulatory retail, domestic
sovereign, claims secured by residential mortgage, etc.
The bank has taken steps in implementation of the standardized approach as prescribed by the RBI. The
various interpretations, which are specifically not covered in the RBI documents, have been considered
based on the Basel document and the discussion held with various RBI officials during the seminars and
meetings. Finer changes, if any, in the final document may be incorporated as and when published by
RBI. The bank is committed to implement the standardized approach as prescribed by the supervisor.

b) Credit Risk Mitigation Techniques


New framework provides for Credit Risk Mitigation (CRM) techniques for calculation of capital
requirements provided they have legal certainty and meet certain conditions.
As per comprehensive approach for CRM techniques, fuller offsetting of collateral is allowed against
exposure by effectively reducing the exposure amount by value ascribed to the collateral.
Further, RBI has also prescribed list of eligible financial collateral, method for calculation of value of
collaterals, haircut, etc.
The bank has implemented software for capturing and working out the credit risk mitigation techniques
provided by the Reserve Bank of India. This software together with our existing database (LADDER)
shall provide the accurate information on the capital adequacy requirement of the bank for credit risk.

*Since knowledge of credit risk process and systems are important for understanding of
credit policy and strategy the remaining part of the policy and strategy are dealt after this
portion.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS AND SYSTEMS


A comprehensive credit risk management process encompasses the following steps:
(1)
(2)

Credit Risk Identification and measurement


Grading of Borrowers under the Rating System

(3)

Reporting and analysis of Credit Risk

(4)

Portfolio Management

(5)

Use of securities as Risk Mitigants

(6)

Use of Guarantees as Risk Mitigants

1. Credit Risk Identification and measurement


Credit risk management process involves identification, measurement, monitoring and control. The bank
has put in place strong credit risk management structure, which ensures continuous identification of
possible areas, which may adversely affect the credit quality of a borrower and/ or portfolio. The process
of identification of credit risk is done by:
-

Identifying potentially good and weak industries to manage risk in portfolio through industry
wise exposure ceiling model.
Identifying potential credit risk in a new as well as existing borrower through various credit risk
rating models.

Identifying signals of weakness in an existing borrower though preventive monitoring system.

Identifying weak accounts having incipient sickness.

1.1 Industry Rating


The RMD, H.O provides rating of various industries to be used in Credit Risk Rating on an on-going
basis with the help of the rating Industry scenario.
The industries not rated are treated as BB denoting neutral so far as applicability of loaning power
restrictions is concerned.
In order to restrict the credit exposure in industries rated unfavourable, the sanctioning powers of the
authorities have also been restricted for fresh loans/enhancements.
Besides, other guidelines followed are
1.2 (a) Credit Risk Rating Models:

In order too measure the risk in an industry, the bank has developed a online comprehensive model
which takes care of internal as well as external factors like rating of industry, present exposure level,
quality of present exposure, level of impaired assets, etc.The system serves as a single point indicator of
diverse risk factors of counter party and for taking credit decisions in a consistent manner.
This model helps in setting up the internal exposure ceiling levels to an industry, which help the bank to
manage the risk in portfolio.
To measure risk in individual borrowal accounts, the bank has identified various segments viz. large
corporate, mid corporate, small, NBFC, New projects, Banks, Retail, etc. Borrowers in these segments
reflect similarity of potential credit risk factors and as such can be rated using the single model for the
segment.
All existing borrowers above a thresh hold limits are subjected to a continuous preventive monitoring
system. This system helps in identifying accounts developing adverse signals to initiate corrective
measures.
The bank has system of identifying and monitoring weak accounts which develop incipient sickness.
Experience gained through these systems is used in refining the various models.
Further, it is also ensured that business unit while framing schemes of lending also identify potential new
credit risk factors so as to analyze the impact of same and correspondingly provide for mitigation.
The bank has developed the following models/tools:

VIII) Advances to INDIVIDUALS under Agriculture (Direct), Agriculture


Sectors, Transport, Services, Artisan and Handicrafts.

(Indirect), Other Priority

1.2 (b) CREDIT DELIVERY


A. Strengthening of Pre-Sanction Appraisal
The bank has developed a useful credit appraisal methodology to ensure the quality of loan portfolio and
special attention is given to pre-sanction appraisal.
As regards retail loans the bank has been following the system of Rule based lending for housing, car &
consumer loan schemes, which envisages assigning of scores to the prospective borrowers for the

purpose of deciding their eligibility for these loans. This process is aimed at healthy growth of the Retail
loan portfolio of the bank.

i)

Adoption of Fair Practice Code

Based on the broad guidelines on the Fair Practices Code for Lenders advised by RBI, PNB has
introduced Fair Practices Code in a bid to refine standard of customer services and transparency in the
lending activities. The code contains various important declarations, which should be followed in letter
and spirit.
ii)

Valuation of Property, Plant & Machinery.

Valuation of Property
In case of fresh borrowal accounts where aggregate credit limits are Rs.10 lakhs & above and value of
immovable property to be mortgaged/charged is Rs.20 lakhs & above, branches get valuation of such
immovable property done from the valuer on the Banks panel approved by Zonal Managers.
Valuation of Plant & Machinery
In cases where new plant and machinery is to be financed, the cost price indicated in the quotation/
suppliers bill are reckoned as its value, which is verified by making enquiries through other vendors
supplying such machinery.
In fresh borrowal accounts where credit facility is to be considered against the principal/collateral
security of existing plant & machinery are charged to the bank by way of hypothecation, mortgage,
etc., valuation of such plant & machinery are done by branches from the valuer on the Banks panel
approved by Zonal Managers.
For other exceptions the bank issues regular circulars regarding them and those guide lines are followed.
B. Methods of Lending
i) Working Capital
Following systems are followed for assessment of working capital requirements of the borrowers:
Simplified method linked with turnover
Simplified method based on turnover for assessing working capital finance upto Rs.2 crore (upto Rs. 5
crore in case of SSI units).
MPBF System
Existing MPBF system with flexible approach are followed for units requiring working capital finance
exceeding the above-mentioned amount.
Cash Budget System

Cash Budget System is followed in Sugar, Tea, Service Sector and Film Production accounts. It is the
banks endeavour to introduce the same selectively in other areas also.

Loan System for Delivery of Bank Credit


Borrowers are given freedom to decide the proportion of Cash Credit and Loan Component of working
capital limits, period of such loans and renewal/roll over of loan component.
To encourage availment in WCDL, branches allow concessions in the rate of interest to the extent of
0.25% to 0.75% in terms of extant guidelines provided the minimum availment under WCDL is of Rs.1
crore. Borrowers in whose favour Sub- BPLR rate has been approved will not be entitled to the above
concessions.
ii) Assessment of Non-fund based facilities
Assessment of Non Fund based facilities are subjected to the same degree of appraisal, scrutiny as in the
case of fund based limits, interalia, because outstanding in these facilities are reckoned at 100% for
exposure purposes. Therefore, need based requirement of a borrower should be assessed after reckoning
the lead time, credit period available, source of supply, proximity of supplier, etc. in case of LCs and
industry practices and business requirements in case of LGs. The working of NFB assessment is to be
incorporated in the appraisal note. Further, while assessing non-fund facilities, cash flow aspects should
also be taken into account.
iii) Term Loan
In case of infrastructure/mega projects, proper appraisal is made by utilizing the services of
specialized/Technical officers.
The term loans with remaining maturity period of above 5 years shall not exceed 50% of the term
deposits with remaining maturity period of above 5 years after taking into account the renewal of term
deposits as per the past trend, as is being done for ALM.
All proposals for infrastructure projects are sanctioned by GM & above at Head Office only except in
case of following proposals
i) Involving agro-processing and supply of inputs to agriculture is sanctioned by officials at
various levels within their vested loaning powers.
ii) Relating to construction for preservation and storage of processed agro products, perishable
goods such as fruits, vegetables and flowers including testing facilities for quality are sanctioned
by CM/RM & above within their vested loaning powers.
iii) For construction of educational institutions and hospitals for running the same by their
promoters is to be sanctioned by officials at various levels by exercising vested loaning powers.
However, in case of construction of educational institutions and hospitals by
companies/individuals engaged in construction or development of real estate projects are
sanctioned by ZMs & above.

iv) Relating to Water Supply Project, Irrigation Project, Water Treatment System, Sanitation &
Sewerage System or Solid Waste Management System, are considered at the level of ZMs &
above within their vested loaning powers.
v) For financing installation of wind mills for captive generation of power are sanctioned by
various field functionaries within their vested loaning powers. However, advances for
installation of Wind Mills for generation of wind energy for sale to other manufacturers would
fall under the category of infrastructure projects and such proposals are considered at HO level.
1.3 (a) Monitoring of Weak/Irregular Accounts
The bank has established systems for Inspection and control of its Lending activity so as to have a sound
credit portfolio. These systems have stood the test of time. The Pre-sanction appraisal, Post sanction
monitoring process for corporate, retail and priority sector loans, Systems for Restructuring of weak
borrowal accounts, Recovery process to be adopted for problem loans, Compromise policy etc. are all
well documented through various circulars issued from time to time.
(b) Restructuring of Accounts/Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR)
Restructuring of accounts is one of the means available to restore an account back on rails. It is,
therefore, essential to apply this prescription well in time as the delay may erode the basic viability of
the account. In order to save the potential accounts from slippage to NPA category, bank will go for
restructuring of these accounts within the framework of RBI guidelines. Quick decision should be taken
within 90 days delinquency norms to avoid slippage to NPA category.
Under CDR Mechanism, Zonal Managers and above shall consider proposals within their vested loaning
powers for sanctions/restructuring of loans.

2. Grading of Borrowers under the Rating system


In order to provide a standard definition and benchmarks under the credit risk rating system, following
matrix has been adopted in all the risk rating models.

Steps taken to strengthen the rating exercise:
a) Certain hurdle points have been incorporated in credit risk rating models so that the borrowal accounts
below a particular benchmark are subject to detailed specific risk analysis. Based upon certain hurdle
points risk rating is downgraded.
b) In order to stabilize and create robust credit risk management system, bank has been continuously
monitoring the ratings and their migration. Seminars, workshops, regular visits of senior officials and
video conferences are conducted regularly to equip the Zonal CRMD officials to monitor the migration
and reduce deviation. Notes on rating migrations are placed to CRMC for information.

3. Reporting and Analysis of Credit Risk


The MIS in respect of risk rated accounts under all the models (based on the amount of the limits) is to
be made available to the Risk Management Division. To ensure the quality and consistency of basic risk
related data, the process of rating and vetting has been defined as under:

Loan
Sanctioning
Authority
HO

Credit Risk Rating Authority

Vetting/Confirming Authority

i) Zonal CRMD in consultation


with branches/ROs

GM (RMD), HO

ii) Large Corporate Branches


ZO

i) ROs/ELBs/VLBs in case of
Large Corporate Model,
ii) In case of other Models, branches
to rate the accounts. The assistance
of Functional Manager (Credit) of
RM Office may be taken in case of
need.

Incharge, Zonal CRMD

RO

Branch with assistance of


An officer designated by RM/SRM
Functional Manager (Credit) of RM not connected with
Office.
processing/recommending of the
concerned loan proposal

Branch

Officer/Manager, Credit Section

An official designated by the


Incumbent not connected with
processing / recommending of the
concerned loan proposal.

Rating/vetting at BOs in accounts with limits of Rs. 50 lakhs and below:


In such cases of accounts having aggregate sanctioned limits of Rs 50 lakhs and below in
branches where there is no second officer available, the rating and vetting is done by the same authority.
However in such cases in order to ensure the quality Credit risk rating, the same has to be submitted by
the BO to the higher authority along with the limit-sanctioned statements regularly.
Data is collected by RMD, HO for:
-

Compilation of credit portfolio and its movement


Validity of various ratings

Migration analysis

Default probabilities

Validations of the risk rating models output.

Validity of Credit Risk Rating


The credit risk rating of a borrower becomes due for updation after the expiry of 12 months from
the month of confirmation of rating or 18 months from the date of balance sheet on the basis of which
credit risk rating was assigned, which ever is earlier.
The rating is treated as overdue after the expiry of 15 months from the month of confirmation of
rating or 21 months from the date of Balance Sheet on the basis of which the credit risk rating was
assigned, whichever is earlier.
After the expiry of the above period, the rating is stated as Due or Overdue for renewal as the
case may be and word Due for renewal or Overdue for renewal will be suffixed along-with the rating
wherever it is quoted.
In case a borrower has extended the accounting period, the vetting authority considers the
extension of the validity of the earlier rating on the merit of each case.

Fresh rating is assigned to a borrowal account, irrespective of the validity period stated above, if
any material development/information on the borrower comes to light, which may affect the rating
adversely.
In case rating is overdue for non-receipt of Balance Sheet, penal interest is charged in such
accounts as per extant guidelines.

4. Portfolio Management
The rated portfolio of the loan accounts is monitored by RMD periodically to ensure proper mix
of various risk category accounts and thereby the asset quality of the portfolio. With this aim the bank
has taken the following measures:
Evaluation of rating wise distribution of borrowers in various industries is done to assess/appraise the
quality of banks portfolio.

i)

Industry scenario analysis is being undertaken taking into consideration the changes in
industrial and external environment e.g. changes in Economic/Fiscal/Monetary policies, general
slowdown/boom in the economy etc.

ii)

All limits are to be renewed/reviewed at least once in 12 months. In order to have constant
monitoring of the portfolio of the bank in the lower rating categories of C & D the bank has
the system in place of having discriminatory time schedules for review of Credit limits in these
categories of accounts. The review of such accounts is required to be done every 6 months.

iii)

The Bank has since appointed Relationship Managers in its Large Corporate branches with the
aim of proper monitoring of banks exposure in high value accounts so as to ensure constant
surveillance on the substantial share of the loan portfolio of the bank which can alter its risk
profile.

5. Use of Securities as Risk Mitigants


There are well-laid guidelines for definitions of primary and collateral securities and their valuations.
The understanding of the field functionaries to use securities as risk mitigant is well established. The
bank has issued detailed guidelines to be followed up for verification and valuation of securities charged
to the bank.
Primary Security Verification & Valuation: Verification and valuation of primary security is to be
done on regular basis so as to ensure the quality. There are prescribed guidelines in respect of the
frequency of verification of securities/stocks & valuation thereof, methodology for computation of
Drawing Power.

Collateral Security: Apart from primary security, bank takes collateral security in borrowal accounts to
mitigate the risk. Detailed guidelines on creation of valid charge, valuation and verification of various
types of collateral security are issued from time to time.

6. Use of Guarantees as Risk Mitigants:


Appropriate acceptable guarantee is obtained as the risk mitigant in various borrowal accounts. The
understanding of the field functionaries to use Guarantees as risk mitigant is also well established.
Present, credit risk rating system evolved in the bank is aimed at measuring the Probability of Default of
the borrower. To measure the impact of Credit Risk Mitigants, bank is implementing Facility Rating
Model.

OTHER ISSUES:
a) Group Approach
For identification of a group, the guiding principle is Commonality of Management and Effective
Control.
In case the accounts of any unit belonging to a Group become irregular and the concerned promoters do
not co-operate with the Bank and Financial Institution to settle their dues, the Group will not be provided
accommodation from the Bank. While dealing with cases involving extension of fresh facilities to such
units belonging to a group, the under mentioned basic point is kept in view:Financial support for setting up of new ventures or expansion should not be extended to unit belonging
to a group which is willful defaulter or non co-operative so as to ensure that no amount lent to a
healthier unit of a group for its Working Capital requirements is transferred to another unit within the
group by reducing the Current Ratio of transferor unit.
For identification of cases of Promoter Groups/Companies for deterrent action, a coordinated approach
be taken with Banks and Financial Institutions.
Industrial Units in Public Sector are to be kept out of the purview of Group Approach.

b) Consortium Arrangement
In case of borrowers enjoying aggregate fund-based limits of Rs. 50 crore and above from more than one
bank, consortium arrangement is considered.

c) Multiple Banking Arrangement


Under Multiple Banking Arrangement each Bank is free to negotiate terms and conditions, including
margin, rate of interest etc. Based on the communication received from IBA, the common code for
financing under Multiple Banking Arrangement particularly in respect of sharing of information as well
as common securities has been adopted by the bank.

d) Syndication:

The improved performance of manufacturing sector; increased demand for infrastructure projects;
restriction of term lending institutions for providing term lending finance has provided another window
of opportunity for bank's fee-based income by performing the role of Debt Advisors, Arrangers and
Syndicators in such a situation. A cell for this purpose has already been set up.

e) Validity of Credit Limit Sanctioned


A sanction in respect of Working Capital and Term Loan facilities is valid for 6 months, from the date of
sanction. Facilities not availed within the above period is treated as lapsed and borrower be advised
accordingly. Unless a lapsed sanction is revalidated by the competent authority within a maximum
period of 12 months from the date of sanction, no facility should be released. Following powers is
applicable for re-validation of the sanctions:
Sl.
Sanctions made by

Competent authority to
consider re-validation

Time period upto which


revalidation can be
considered from the date
of sanction

1.

Sanctions upto
ED/CMD level

Sanctioning Authority

12 months

3.

Sanctions made by
MC

CMD/ED

12 months

No.

However, to safeguard the banks interest, while permitting revalidation, the competent authority obtains
and studies the latest financials of the borrowers/units and also ensures that the projections submitted at
the time of original sanction continue to hold good.

f) Selective Credit Control


Based on the guidelines issued by RBI from time to time, credit limits are sanctioned to borrowers
dealing in sensitive commodities.

g) Use of CIBIL data and RBI defaulters list


With the aim of taking informed credit decisions, the bank has become a member of Credit Information
Bureau of India, an institution set up for creation of the database in respect of the borrowers of
banks/FIs and sharing the same with its member banks. Credit Information Report (CIR) is drawn while
considering fresh/enhanced/renewal proposal. This initiative helps the bank in better credit decisions
thereby resulting in lower NPAs.
In cases where name of a company appears in the RBI list of defaulters and the Director(s) of such
company are also Director(s) in another company seeking credit facilities from our bank, such case are
not normally be considered.

h) Willful Defaulters and Action there-against


No additional facilities are granted by bank to the listed willful defaulters. In addition, the
entrepreneurs/promoters of companies where banks/FIs have identified siphoning/diversion of funds,

misrepresentation, falsification of accounts and fraudulent transactions, are debarred from institutional
finance from the scheduled commercial banks, Development Financial Institutions, Government owned
NBFCs, investment institutions etc. for floating new ventures for a period of 5 years from the date the
name of willful defaulter appears in the list of willful defaulters of Rs.25 Lakh & above published by
RBI on quarterly basis.
Besides, the other guidelines issued in this regard are also be adhered to.

i) Exploring new avenues:


In the changing scenario, where new innovative products are being increasingly used, to manage the
various risks associated with the underlying assets such as concentration risk, market risk etc., it is
endeavour of the bank to adopt new instruments such as derivatives /securitization, based upon the
market scenario as well as the ALM position after gaining experience.

4. Sanction of proposals beyond the purview of Credit Management & Risk Policy
Policy prescriptions mentioned herein are subject to review / modifications by the competent
authority(ies) as per the powers delegated to them depending upon the changing market conditions &
business exigencies. However, Management Committee may permit deviations beyond the purview of
above policy and such deviations are reported to Board by the respective Division/Department at the end
of every quarter.
The Credit Management & Risk Policy formulated for 2006-07 are valid till further review.

CREDIT RISK STRATEGIES


The bank has since been implementing various techniques, relevant structure and processes for credit
risk measurement but it may take some more time to quantify the entire credit risk in banking book.
Based on the results of the risk measurement models developed by the bank, the bank has prescribed
various risk strategies for credit portfolio, which involve the following:
A. Identification of Target Market for the bank
B. Decision on Risk Acceptance levels*
C. Quantitative Exposure Ceilings*

*since the acceptance level and exposure ceilings of the bank are subjected to continual review
so these are not added them in this project

A. Identification of Target Market for the bank


An important aspect of targeted marketing is to have matching delivery channels. Bank has created
proper credit delivery channels for building up of a sound credit portfolio. Bank has created specialized
structure wherein relationship management concept has also been introduced. The purpose of creating
specialized structure is to ensure prompt credit dispensation and improving credit risk management
practices. The initiatives taken in this regard are:
-

Large Corporate Branches

Mid Corporate Branches

SSI Branches

Trade Finance Branches

Signature branches

Retail loan hubs

New business group

THRUST AREAS
In the year 2006-07, the thrust areas are as under:
i. Retail Segment

ii. Priority Sector Credit

iii. Export Credit

OTHER STRATEGIES:
i)

Non-Fund Based Business

Non-fund based business are increased so as to augment non-interest/fee based income. In consortium
advances, efforts shall be to secure at least pro-rata business.

ii)

Take Over Of Accounts from Other Banks

Only borrowal accounts in "Standard Category" having Credit Risk Rating BB or better can be
taken over from other banks. Further, such borrowers should have earned net profit after tax in
the immediate preceding three years and have sound financial position.

For accounts, which are in existence for less than three years, the unit should have earned cash
profit during first year of commercial operation and from second year onward, the unit should
have earned net profit after tax. However, in such cases, at least one audited balance sheet should
be available before hand. Accounts where commercial production has not started or just started,
takeover can be considered, if project is found technically feasible and economically viable
subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions.

Borrowal account can be taken over from other banks on selective basis after obtaining prior
approval from the next higher authority of the officialder whose powers the takeover of the
account (entire fund based and non-fund based limits) is proposed.

Zonal Managers, GM (HO), ED and CMD may, however, permit takeover of borrowal accounts
upto the extent of their vested loaning powers. In order to tap business potential, ZMs may
permit incumbents of select branches to take over SSI/Trading accounts to the extent of 50% of
their normal loaning powers.

iii)

Optimizing Credit Deposit Ratio


During the current year, it is the banks endeavour to optimize the CD ratio.

HYPOTHESIS

The Credit Management & Risk Policy formulated for 2006-07 are valid till further review.

For identification of cases of Promoter Groups/Companies for deterrent action, a coordinated


approach is taken with Banks and Financial Institutions.

SUGGESTIONS

Since Credit dispensing is the major function of the bank, the bank must make an effective
appraisal to determine the project success.

Sanctioning of any proposal a detailed appraisal is mandatory. An effective appraisal not only
helps the bank to measure project techno economic viability and its success but also help the
organization by presenting current position and future trend.

Promoter should also appraise his proposal in a similar way and then decide upon taking up the
project for implementation.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION:-

Banking plays a very vital role in the development of the economy of any country. Credit Flow affects
various macro level issues like Inflation, Industrial and Agricultural Growth, Purchasing power etc. RBI
has the paramount responsibility to guide the banks for a vibrant as well as controlled credit flow. RBI
also uses CRR, REPO and SLR to control the credit flow. The Credit Policies announced by the RBI is
the source of credit policies of the individual banks. Presently many liberties have been given to the
individual banks, but they have to function within the overall supervision of RBI. In the present day
economy, even global factors affect the decision making.
Keeping in view all this we found that PNB is having a very sound credit management policy, within the
framework of RBI . To meet the global challenges and meet the prudential norm requirement as
per the BASEL I & II, they have a organisational structure. PNB has got a sound credit policy
and strategy for granting loans. It has developed indigenous software for risk rating. It has a
credit risk management committee that overviews the work of the credit department and it also
sanctions the proposal.
To cater to the need of the customer and for speedy disposal of credit proposals they tailor made
schemes, and delegation of loaning power.
After going through the various steps of project appraisal, risk management and post sanction
follow up it has been observed that for sanctioning of any proposal a detailed appraisal is
mandatory. An effective appraisal not only helps the bank to measure project techno economic
viability and its success but also help the organization by presenting current position and future
trend. Since Credit dispensing is the major function of the bank, the bank must make an effective
appraisal to determine the project success. It is also observed that even the promoter has to
appraise his proposal in a similar way and then decide upon taking up the project for
implementation.
