Thus far in the United States during 2011, there have been 43 bank failures. In 2010, the United States had 157 bank
failures compared with 140 in 2009, 25 in 2008 and 3 for the entire year of 2007. The FDIC has 860 banks with assets
totaling $379.2 billion on its confidential list of troubled institutions as of September 30, 2010.

 In the United States, on September 29, 2009, the FDIC publicly proposed that insured banks prepay their estimated
quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012.
 The prepaid assessment for these periods was collected on December 30, 2009, along with each institution’s regular
quarterly risk-based deposit insurance assessment for the third quarter of 2009.
 The prepaid assessment rate for 2011 and 2012 is equal to that institution’s modified third quarter 2009 total base
assessment rate plus 3 basis points.
 Each institution would record the entire amount of its prepaid assessment as a prepaid expense (asset) as of December
30, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, each institution would record an expense (charge to
earnings) for its regular quarterly assessment for the quarter and an offsetting credit to the prepaid assessment until the
asset is exhausted. Once the asset is exhausted, the institution would record an accrued expense payable each quarter for
the assessment payment, which would be paid in arrears to the FDIC at the end of the following quarter. If the prepaid
assessment is not exhausted by December 30, 2014, any remaining amount would be returned to the depository
institution.
 The reason for the request stems from the belief by the FDIC that it has under-estimated the cost of receivership
administration of banks closed by their respective regulators and needs to replenish its available funds immediately.

Balance Sheet Analysis


Assets
Current Assets / Liquid Assets
 Cash and cash due from Central Bank; cash on deposit in postal banking accounts; Due from Banks;
Interest-bearing deposits in other banks
 Cash held in trust: may be on the behalf of a third party or the result of a merger/acquisition and may have
restrictions encumbering its usage.
 Fed Funds Sold: Federal funds, or fed funds, are unsecured loans of reserve balances at Federal Reserve
Banks that depository institutions make to one another. Banks keep reserve balances at the Federal Reserve
Banks to meet their reserve requirements and to clear financial transactions. Transactions in the fed funds
market enable depository institutions with reserve balances in excess of reserve requirements to lend them, or
“sell” as it is called by market participants, to institutions with reserve deficiencies. Fed Funds are sold daily to
various financial institutions (commercial banks, thrift institutions, agencies and branches of foreign banks in
the United States, federal agencies, and government securities dealers) throughout the United States. The most
common duration or term for fed funds transaction is overnight, though longer-term deals are arranged. The
rate at which these transactions occur is called the fed funds rate.

Fed funds transactions can be initiated by either a funds lender or a funds borrower. An institution seeking to
lend fed funds identifies a borrower directly, through an existing banking relationship, or indirectly, through a
fed funds broker. The most commonly used method to transfer funds between depository institutions is for the
lending institution to authorize its district Federal Reserve Bank to debit its reserve account and to credit the
reserve account of the borrowing institution.

Most overnight loans are booked without a contract. The borrowing and lending institutions exchange verbal
agreements based on various considerations, particularly their experience in doing business together, and limit
the size of transactions to established credit lines in order to minimize the lender's exposure to default risk.

Overnight fed funds transactions under a continuing contract are renewed automatically until termination by
either the lender or the borrower. This type of agreement is used most frequently by correspondent banks that
borrow overnight fed funds from a respondent bank.

 Due From Banks: demand and time deposits with other banks (does not include loans to banks that may
be termed time deposits due from banks) and although there is a slight element of risk involved, it is still
considered cash.
 Negotiable Certificates of Deposit, which should be stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
 Marketable Securities: U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government agencies, States and political
subdivisions, exchange listed (publicly traded) securities such as corporate bonds equities, Asset-backed
securities Mortgage-backed securities. This account is also sometimes known as Securities Available-for-Sale
(amortized; price movements in these securities are dependent upon the movement in market interest rate).

During 2009, many banks in the United States have purchased mortgage-backed securities issued and
guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae / GNMA), which are also backed by
the FHA, in order to improve the bank's balance sheet as they are seen as high quality compared to other
securities (due to the federal government guarantee) and also because they receive a zero risk weighting under
regulatory guidelines and improve the bank's capital ratios. However, it is some what manipulative of the
capital ratio as the replacing FNMA, FHLMC and private label securities with GNMA securities will quickly
improve the capital ratios even as loans in the bank's portfolio are deteriorating.

Loans less than one year


 Advances to customers
 Accounts receivable - trade

 Securities held under Reverse Repurchase Agreements: the financial institution "lent" out cash and
took securities at a discounted value as security, which are recorded as receivables.

Please also see A Guide to Repurchase Agreements


Loans or Receivables (of various maturities in excess of one year) will represent one of the main business
activities of the the bank and may account for the largest percentage of total assets. A loan is an extension of
credit resulting from direct negotiations between a lender and a borrower. Loans may be held until maturity,
may be sold in whole or a portion to third parties, and may also be obtained through purchase in whole or in
portion from third parties.
 What is in the portfolio? Corporate / commercial loans (secured / unsecured, fixed-term / revolving)?
Construction loans (this is one of the riskiest types of loan), Commercial lease financing, Mortgages (residential
or commercial), secured loans, loans to public authorities, consumer loans such as credit card, home equity and
personal loans; consumer lease financing?
 Collateralized loans mean that the grantor has in its possession (or a fiduciary, administrator, trustee)
readily marketable or highly liquid instruments (cash, CDs, stocks and bonds). Sufficient margin on
collateralized credits should also be provided (due to interest rate and market sensitivity).
 Secured loans are secured by assets that are not readily marketable and/or under the control of the
recipient of the loan (UCC filings on receivables, pledges of inventory, equipment, assignment of real estate
mortgages or rents, contracts). Pledge of inventory and real estate should be adequately insured and in the
name the Grantor.
 Loans secured by real estate are loans predicated upon a security interest in real property. A loan
predicated upon a security interest in real property is a loan secured wholly or substantially by a lien on real
property for which the lien is central to the extension of the credit
 Shown net of Allowance of Losses (the reserve set aside that represents an amount considered by
management to be adequate to cover estimated losses in the loan portfolio).

What is the difference between Loan Loss Reserve and Loan Loss Provision? The Reserve is the balance sheet
component that has already been established (to cover actual or anticipated deterioration of the loan assets).
The provision is the income statement component amount that is charged against earnings and will be added to
the Reserves (thus increasing the Reserve account).

 Due from parental holding company or related company (unsecured? rate?)


 What are maturities (mix should slant to the short-term).
 What is the performance of the portfolio? Delinquencies, charge-offs and provisioning? How quickly does the
bank classify a loan as over due / delinquent. and / or non-performing (30 days or 180 days)?
 If loan quality deteriorates, then the resultant for increased provisioning will result in lower earnings for the
year (or coming years if deterioration continues in a recession or high interest rate environment).
 Credit quality concerns are cyclical as banks over-lend to sectors experiencing growth and then that growth
stops (LDC/less developed countries, commercial real estate, consumer loan/credit card portfolio).

Legal lending limits:


The legal lending limit for national banks is set forth at 12 U.S.C. § 84. Specifically, 12 U.S.C. § 84(a) indicates
that loans to one borrower generally cannot exceed 15% of the bank’s capital and that lenders can make
additional loans to a borrower totaling up to 10% of the bank’s capital if those additional loans are fully secured
by “readily marketable collateral.” The legal lending limit also generally applies to Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation-insured thrift institutions. See 12 U.S.C. § 1464(u). Respective state law applies legal lending limits
to state-regulated banks.

What does capitalized interest mean? It means that uncollected interest has been added to the principal
balance of the loan.
What happens when a loan goes bad? When a loan (or other investment) is deemed uncollectible, the financial
institution must remove it from the asset side of the balance sheet and from the Reserve for Loan Losses
Account or an appropriate expense account.

 Derivative Contracts for managing (positioning or hedging) exposure to market risk (including interest
rate risk and foreign exchange risk), cash flow risk, and other risks in operations and for trading. The
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities are set forth in FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended. Statement No. 133 requires all derivatives to
be recognized at their fair value.

The accounting standard for fair value measurements that should be applied in accounting pronouncements
that require or permit fair value measurements is FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (FAS
157), which defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The definition of fair value
for an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants (not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) in the asset’s or
liability’s principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date. The transaction is assumed to
occur based on an exit price notion versus an entry price.

 Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs): Many banks that originate primary residential mortgages and then
sell them into the secondary market retain the servicing rights of the mortgage. This means that for a fee the
bank collects the monthly payment from the mortgagee and passes on the principal and interest components of
the payment to the trust that owns the mortgage and then also makes the insurance and real estate tax
payments from the escrow account that is maintained.

Mortgage servicing rights represent a future stream of payments. The on-balance sheet carrying value of these
MSRs is still subject to a fair value test under FAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. The value of the MSRs are affected by the prepayment speed of the
underlying mortgages being serviced because if they pay off faster than had been assumed then there are
fewer mortgages to be serviced and a resultant lower income stream than had been anticipated. Thus, in a
declining interest rate environment where home owners are refinancing to a lower rate or selling and
purchasing a new home and the original MSR is rapidly losing mortgages from the original group to be serviced
the bank must now write down the value of the MSR portfolio. Conversely, in a rising interest rate environment
the MSRs tend to have a stable or increasing value as the maturity of the MSRs lenghten (as no one is
refinancing).

Federal Home Loan Bank capital stock


 Often a component of U.S. banks' balance sheets.

Fixed Assets
 Leasehold and freehold land and buildings (at historical cost or at revised market value at time of
statements, less depreciation and amortization).
 Tangible fixed assets: fixtures, equipment, motor vehicles (depreciated or amortized).

Investments
 Brady bonds (should not be carried at a value not exceeding their secondary market value).
 Investments in subsidiaries.

Other Assets
 Bank-Owned Life Insurance

Other real estate owned ("OREO")


 Foreclosed property held by the bank.

Intangibles and Goodwill


 Goodwil is generated when a bank purchases a operating company in excess of its book value. U.S. Banks
are required under GAAP accounting guidelines to perform goodwill impairment tests periodically.

Liabilities
Current Liabilities
 Due to customers (onsight or time deposits) / Deposits: Savings accounts, regular checking accounts, NOW
accounts, money market deposit accounts, CDs.
 Core Deposits consist of all interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, except certificates of
deposit over $100,000. They include checking interest deposits, money market deposit accounts, time and
other savings, plus demand deposits.

Core deposits represent the most significant source of funding for a bank and are comprised of noninterest-
bearing deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, non-brokered savings deposits and non-brokered
domestic time deposits under $100,000. The branch network is a bank's principal source of core deposits, which
generally carry lower interest rates than wholesale funds of comparable maturities.

It can be difficult for a bank to attract deposits in a mature market except by increasing savings rates.
However, that action can result in a reduction of the bank's net interest income. In addition, if the bank offers a
higher rate to new customer accounts then it can alienate existing customers (who may withdraw their depost
permanently or seek to open a new account in order to obtain the higher rate). Another problem with deposits
is that there tends to be a maturity mismatch with long-term assets.

Please also see A Guide to Consumer Banking Products: Deposits


 Brokered Deposits represent funds which the bank obtains, directly or indirectly, by or through any
deposit broker for deposit into one or more deposit accounts. Thus, brokered deposits include both those in
which the entire beneficial interest in a given bank deposit account or instrument is held by a single depositor
and those in which the deposit broker sells participations in a given bank deposit account or instrument to one
or more investors. Fully insured brokered deposits are brokered deposits that are issued in denominations of
$100,000 or less or that are issued in denominations greater than $100,000 and participated out by the deposit
broker in shares of $100,000 or less.
 Due to banks (on-sight or time deposits)
 Commercial Paper consists of short-term negotiable promissory notes issued in the United States, which
rollover every 30 to 270 days and are usually not collateralized.
 Short-term borrowings are usually from banks, securities dealers, the Federal Home Loan Bank, unsecured
federal funds borrowings, which generally mature daily.
 Fed Funds Purchased are short-term, unsecured borrowings.
 Advances from a Federal Home Loan Bank are fully collateralized by loans on the bank's asset-side of the
balance sheet.
 Dividend payable (preferred stock dividend in arrears)
 Derivative Contracts for managing (positioning or hedging) exposure to market risk (including interest
rate risk and foreign exchange risk), cash flow risk, and other risks in operations and for trading. The
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities are set forth in FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended. Statement No. 133 requires all derivatives to
be recognized at their fair value.

Long-Term Liabilities

 Notes payable
 Mortgages payable, which may have been incurred for commercial property where either the headquarters,
offices or branches of the bank are located.

 Subordinated Note (or debenture) is a form of debt issued by a bank or a consolidated subsidiary. When
issued by a bank, a subordinated note or debenture is not insured by a federal agency, is subordinated to the
claims of depositors, and has an original weighted average maturity of five years or more. Such debt shall be
issued by a bank with the approval of, or under the rules and regulations of, the appropriate federal bank
supervisory agency.

 Contingent Core Tier 1 Capital / CoCos is debt that will automatically convert into equity shares of the
bank if the bank's core capital ratio declines below a specific level.

 Accrued/deferred taxes

Stockholder's Equity / Share Capital


 Common shares (authorized and outstanding). Is there a tier system of voting shares and common shares?

Why is it a poor decision for banks to buy back shares on the open market in order to increase the market price
of the common equity? Because corporate stock purchases actually reduce capital (instead of increasing
retained earnings). Why is it an even worse decision of taking on debt to buy back shares on the open market?
Because the bank is actually increasing leverage while it is simultaneously reducing capital.

 Preferred shares (restrictions?). Preferred stock is a form of ownership interest in a bank or other company
which entitles its holders to some preference or priority over the owners of common stock, usually with respect
to dividends or asset distributions in a liquidation.
 Some trust related preferred securities may have equity characteristics and are treated favorably under Tier
1 guidelines; and may have lower interest costs. The instruments are deeply subordinated (just ahead of
common stock) and have long maturities although they may have call provisions. Dividend payments may have
some favorable tax treatment for the issuers. However, these securities generally have debt-like
characteristics. The bank is unlikely to defer dividend payments due to the message it may send to other
sources of funding.

 Retained Earnings: equity will increase if retained earnings are increasing.

 Subordinated, perpetual notes

 Trust Preferred Securities / TruPS. TruPS were approved by the Federal Reserve in 1996 as Tier 1
capital (maximum 25.0% of tier 1 capital). The Trust issuer is usually a wholly-owned subsidiary of a bank
holding company, or a direct subsidiary of the bank. The Trust sells securities to investors and then uses the
proceeds from the sale to purchase subordinated debentures of the parent holding company or bank. The Trust
uses the interest payments that it receives from the purchased debentures to make payments to the holders of
its preferred securities. A TruPS issue is subordinate to all debt on a financial institution's balance sheet, but is
senior to both preferred and common equity issues. A TruPS issue usually has a term of 30 years, and are non-
amortizing instruments that pay quarterly or semi-annual interest in the form of a dividended payment (the
dividend payment can be deferred for up to five years). TruPS issued by small financial institutions were
pooled / securitized in CDOs during the early to mid-2000's (larger financial institutions had issued TruPS
individually since 1996). When the financial crisis and recession 2008 - 2010 commenced many financial
institutions suspended the interest / dividend payment and the CDOs, which had originally been rated Triple-A,
either substantially lost value or defaulted.

Clarifying the value of Stockholder's Equity. Equity invested into any type of financial institution is an
accounting entry. It is not a situation where there is a separate account where segregated cash and assets are
held independently for an emergency of what is indicated on the balance. Rather, equity is utilized to
purchase / invest in assets from which the financial institution can generate revenue. Thus, the value of
Equity is only as good as the quality of the Assets that have been purchased. That is why one of the
first considerations of analyzing Equity is to deduct Intangible Assets (can not be monetaized) to determine
Tangible Net Worth. Then, Non-Performing Assets must be deducted, along with any other other asset they
may not be able to be monetized, or then any assets that need to be discounted from the book entry value on
the balance sheet (either due to questionable value, market conditions or time constraint). The first test is
always to determine if there are sufficient enough Assets that could be sold quickly to cover short-term liquidity
needs (anything from 72 hours to 28 days). The second test is to determine whether there are sufficient
enough high quality assets, after deducting intangibles and / or discounting assets, in an amount that exceeds
Liabilities by a minimum percentage (which is the same as the basic accounting equation of Assets - Liabilities
= Stockholder's Equity). Indicating that the financial institution has sufficient Equity based on computing a ratio
without examining the quality of the Assets is a mistake. The value of Assets are always questionable, the value
amount of Debt is not.
Income Statement
Income
 Interest income (gross or net?): is adversely affected by falling long and short-term interest rates.

Interest expense
 Subtracted from Interest Income Only
 The cost of funds the company borrows on a short- and long-term basis, buys in the money markets, or
takes in from depositors. Competition for customer funding will increase interest expense, placing pressure on
margins. Some banks and financial services companies will also break out the average annual interest rate paid
on the various sources of funds.
 If interest expense is increasing is competition forcing the bank to pay more for deposits? Is management
relying on high cost funds instead of alternative lower-cost funds to meet the bank’s funding needs?

Net Interest Income


 This is interest income minus interest expense.
 Even a small decline in net interest income can result in a large decline in net income if not offset by a
decline in expenses.
 See how to determine Net Interest Margin below.

Non-interest Income
 It is important that banks develop/increase revenues derived from non-interest sources (bank services, fees
such service charges on deposits, trust income, mortgage servicing fees, securities processing and brokerage
services, results of trading operations) that have more stable growth rates and are not tied to loan growth
cycles, and can provide an offset if loan growth slows.

Other Income
 Dividend income: from third party investment or subsidiary/affiliate?
 Net/gain loss from securities trading: volatility from year to year.
 Foreign exchange: based on customer activity and volatility in the market.
 Sale of investments: is it exceptional?
 Net commission/fee income; based on transactions such as insurance brokering, stock-broking
 Related party transaction(s)
 Watch-out for financial institutions that utilize "gain on sale" accounting which means that the company
records the sale of a loan immediately but the actual profit is received over the life of the loan. The profit is the
difference between the spread that the loan is sold at to the investor and what the seller receives from the
Obligor. The problem is that the application of estimated future interest rates (and default rates) is incorrect
and the loans are over-valued compared to where interest rates may actually be during the life-time of the loan
and whether it will prepay if rates decline, and/or if the loan will default and become un-collectible.

Non-interest expense
 Personnel costs

As part of the $787 billion U.S. economic stimulus package passed in February 2009, there is a stipulation that
all banks that receive infusions from the government's $700 billion financial rescue fund must restrict executive
compensation to those persons earning $1 million or more per year in salary may receive only $500,000 in
additional bonus compensation. The prohibition does not apply to bonuses that were negotiated as part of an
executive's compensation contract signed prior to Feb. 11, 2009. www.ustreas.gov/press/releases/tg15.htm

 Premises / branch operating expenses (rent).


 Systems development costs, merger of networks: as companies must compete based on the ability to
provide state-of-the art trading, retail access and information service, these costs have risen.
 Overseas expansion: as the percentage of non-U.S. income rises, this cost increases as facilities expand.

Operating income
 After expenses but before provisions and taxes and extraordinary items.

Extraordinary / Non-recurring Items


 Material events and transactions that are unusual and infrequent.
 Profit (gains) or loss on sale of fixed assets.

Provision (for loan losses)


 Changing market conditions where the bank operates may result in a deterioration of loan and lease assets,
which may result in actual and anticipated losses (write-down or write-off of the asset's value). The
accumulated loss may exceed the existing Loan Reserve thus earnings may have to added to the Loan Reserve
account to either increase or replenish the amount to meet an acutal or anticipated loss.

Taxation
 Current taxation (tax payable on recognized income for the fiscal year, which was paid to federal, state and
local, and foreign revenue authorities).
 Deferred taxation
Footnotes
Allowance for losses (Loan Loss Account) - is a reserve account that is set aside by management to cover an
estimate of losses (charge-offs) in the loan portfolio. The loan loss account has an opening balance at the
beginning of the year, it receives additional provisions based on actual losses and anticipated losses for the
coming year; has actual charged-off loans subtracted from the account and then has a closing balance for the
year).

Classified Loans - loans that have been determined to be not collectable for the full amount due to the
deteriorating performance and/or condition of the borrower. The "classification" is based upon internal
examination and rating system (based on generally accepted industry practices) such as non-performing
accrual, non-accrual. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) also rates loans are classified as
substandard, doubtful, and loss.

Call Report
In the United States, banks must file on a quarterly basis a Consolidated Report of Condition and Income (Call Report;
Form Number: FFIEC 031 for banks with domestic and foreign offices and FFIEC 041 for banks with domestic offices only).
These information collections are mandatory: 12 U.S.C. 161 (for national banks), 12 U.S.C. 324 (for state member banks),
and 12 U.S.C. 1817 (for insured state nonmember commercial and savings banks) and are submitted by the banks to their
respective regulator, which includes the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Thrift Financial Report (Form Number: OTS 1313) is
submitted to the Office of Thrift Supervision (U.S. Treasury). The agencies are proposing several changes to the FFIEC Call
Report and The TFR.
Consolidated Report of Condition and Income: edocket.access.gpo.gov/2009/pdf/E9-19911.pdf
Thrift Financial Report edocket.access.gpo.gov/2009/pdf/E9-19908.pdf

What happens to a bank when a regulator steps in and seizes a financial istitution and appoints the FDIC as Receiver of the
failed institution?
 All creditors must submit their claim in writing, with proof of the claim, to the Receiver by a specific date (referred to as
the Bar Date).
 The FDIC arranges for a transfer of the deposits to another insured institution (deposits normally are sold at percentage
of their notional amount).
 U.S. Federal law 12 U.S.C. Section 1822(e) requires that depositors must claim ownership of the deposit transferred to
the new institution within 18 months (failure to do so will result in the funds being transferred to the FDIC).
 The deposits can be claimed by simply making a deposit or withdrawal from the account, executing a new signature
card and entering into a new deposit account with the new institution, providing the new institution with a change of
address card, or writing to the new institution and indicating that one wishes to keep the account active.
 Any checks (cashier check, money order, interest check, expense check) issued by the failed institution must also be
claimed within 18 months.
 The FDIC will attempt to sell assets, primarily outstanding loans, to the institution purchasing the deposits and / or
branches (the institution purchases the real estate or the institution will assume the lease obligation for the branch and
may retain some of the employees) at par or at a reasonable discount.
 The FDIC will allow borrowers whose loan has not been purchased by another institution the opportunity to find another
bank who will take over the loan.
 The FDIC may bundle any left over loans and conduct an on-line auction and the loans are then sold to the highest
bidder. Those borrowers who are current merely send their monthly payment to the new institution. Those borrowers who
are in default under the terms of the loan documentation may have the loan accelerated (demand for payment in full)
and / or have the collateral seized if the loan cannot quickly be worked out.

CAMELS
The CAMELS approach was developed by bank regulators in the United States as a means of measurement of the financial
condition of a financial institution. (Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System established by the Federal Financial
Institutions Examination Council)
The acronym CAMELS stands for:
 Capital Adequacy
 Asset Quality
 Management
 Earnings (Profitability)
 Liquidity & Funding
 Sensitivity to Market Risk (losses arising from changes in market prices)
CAMELS analysis requires:
 financial statements (the last three years and interim statements for the most recent 12-month period)
 cash flow projections
 portfolio aging schedules
 funding sources
 information about the board of directors
 operations/staffing
 macroeconomic information
In reviewing ratios the credit analyst needs to keep 2 concepts in mind:
 Level or whether the ratio for a given fiscal period is either equal to or exceeds (which can be both positive or negative
depending on the ratio) the established parameters of what is considered a generally acceptable position for that specific
ratio.
 Trend or whether the fiscal to fiscal comparison period indicates that the level of the ratio is improving or deteriorating.

In addition, individual ratios must not be reviewed in isolation to other ratios and what is the present strategy of the
management of the financial institution.

Capital Adequacy
On Septmber 3, 2009, the U.S. Department of Treasury proposed that capital requirements for all banking firms should be
increased, and capital requirements for financial firms that could pose a threat to overall financial stability should be higher
than those for other banking firms.
www.treas.gov/press/releases/docs/capital-statement_090309.pdf

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency along with other agencies are requesting comments regarding a proposal to
modify general risk-based and advanced risk-based capital adequacy frameworks to eliminate the exclusion of certain
consolidated asset-backed commercial paper programs from risk-weighted assets due to the implementation of the
Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166, Accounting for
Transfers of Financial Assets, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). www.occ.gov/ftp/release/2009-101a.pdf

In August 2009, the FDIC approved guidelines to allow private-equity investors to acquire the deposit liabilities and assets
of failed banks operating under FDIC receivership (includes a Minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.0%).
www.fdic.gov/news/board/Aug26no2.pdf

Capital Adequacy is a measurement of a bank to determine if solvency can be maintained due to risks that have been
incurred as a course of business. Capital allows a financial institution to grow, establish and maintain both public and
regulatory confidence, and provide a cushion (reserves) to be able to absorb potential loan losses above and beyond
identified problems. A bank must be able to generate capital internally, through earnings retention, as a test of capital
strength. An increase in capital as a result of restatements due to accounting standard changes is not an actual increase in
capital.
The Capital Growth Rate, which is calculated by subtracting prior-period equity capital from current-period equity capital,
then dividing the difference by prior-period equity capital, indicates that either earnings are extremely good, minimal
dividends are being extracted or additional capital funds have been received through the sale of new stock or a capital
infusion, or it can mean that earnings are low or that dividends are excessive. The capital growth rate generated from
earnings must be sufficient to maintain pace with the asset growth rate.
The 1988 Basel Committee Capital Accord established a benchmark for measuring bank capital (and for correctly
calculating / risk weighting assets, which became the denominator of the capital ratio):
BIS Tier 1 (core capital): total own funds (allotted, called up and fully paid, ordinary share capital/common
stock net of any shares held; perpetual, non-cumulative, preferred shares, including such shares redeemable at
the option of the issuer; disclosed equity reserves in the form of general and other reserves created by
appropriations of retained earnings, share premiums and other surplus; published interim retained profits
verified by external auditors, minority interests arising on consolidation from interests in permanent
shareholder's equity; fund for general banking risks) must be at least 4% of total risk weighted positions.
Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and the UK maintain hidden reserves.

The only intangibles that the FDIC allows to be included in Tier 1 regulatory capital are purchased mortgage
servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships (cannot account for more than 50% of an institution's
Tier 1 capital unless those grandfathered in from February 19, 1992).

BIS Tier 2 (supplemental): total own funds (plus value adjustments; reserves arising from the revaluation of
tangible fixed assets and financial fixed assets; hybrid capital instruments) must be at least 8% of total risk
weighted positions.

In the United States, Capital Adequacy is regulated by Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of Thrift
Supervision (OTS).
 The OCC supervises the capital adequacy of national banks and federal branches of foreign banking organizations.
 The Federal Reserve Board supervises the capital adequacy of state-chartered banks that are members of the Federal
Reserve System (state member banks).
 The FDIC supervises the capital adequacy of state-chartered banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve
System.
 The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) supervises the capital adequacy of all federally chartered and many state-
chartered savings associations.
The 1988 Basel Accord serves as the basis for current U.S. capital regulations. The 1988 Accord required that
internationally active banking organizations adopt the new capital rules, but some countries, including the United States,
chose to apply the 1988 Basel framework to all banks and thrifts. As indicated above, in the United States Tier I capital
must constitute at least 50% of a bank’s total capital. Total of Tier 2 capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 capital. The add-
back of the allowance for loan and lease losses is limited to 1.25% of weighted-risk assets.
The Basel / U.S. baking regulation guidelines for a "Well Capitalized institution"
 5% or better Tier 1 Leverage Ratio (the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets)
 6% or better Tier 1 risk-based ratio (the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total risk-adjusted assets, with assets
categorized by risk level)
 10% or better total risk-based ratio (the ratio of total capital to total risk-adjusted assets).

FDIC guidelines for a "Adequately Capitalized institution"


 4% or better Tier 1 Leverage Ratio
 4% or better Tier 1 risk-based ratio
 8% or better total risk-based ratio
In the United States, a bank is expected to meet a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of
8.0%, of which at least 4.0% should be in the form of core capital (Tier 1). Any bank that does not meet the minimum
risk-based capital ratio, or whose capital is otherwise considered inadequate, generally will be expected to develop and
implement a capital plan for achieving an adequate level of capital (usually under the terms of an FDIC Order to Cease and
Desist). The concept of prompt corrective action by the FDIC was introduced with the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA). When a bank becomes “Undercapitalized” (below "Adequately
Capitalized") in many cases it means that unless it can rapidly turn the operation around it will be shut down by the
respective supervisors. While "Undercapitalized" a bank:
 must cease paying dividends
 is generally prohibited from paying management fees to a controlling person
 must file and implement a capital restoration plan
 cannot accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit. Effective yield on deposits solicited by the bank cannot be more
than 75 basis points or .75% over local market yields for comparable size and maturity deposits.
When a bank becomes “Critically Undercapitalized” in many cases it means that unless it can rapidly turn the operation
around it will be shut down by the respective supervisors. A critically undercapitalized bank must be placed in receivership
within 90 days unless the FDIC and the bank’s primary federal regulator concur that other action would better achieve the
purposes of prompt corrective action. Additionally, a "Critically Undercapitalized" bank is prohibited, unless it obtains prior
written FDIC approval, from:
 entering into any material transaction not in the usual course of business
 extending credit for any highly leveraged transaction (any transaction in which the borrower has very little equity)
 paying excessive compensation or bonuses
 paying interest on new or renewed deposits that would increase the bank’s weighted average cost of funds significantly
above prevailing interest rates in its normal markets.

In the United States, Supplemental or Tier 2 Capital consists, within certain specified limits, of such things as the
allowance for loan losses, hybrid capital instruments, and subordinated debt. These supplemental items are often forms of
debt that are subordinate to claims of depositors and the FDIC. As such, they provide depositor protection and are included
in bank capital.
The regulatory treatment of Tier 2 capital is such that securities issued in a subordinate position for regulatory capital
purposes have their capital value amortized over the last five years of the security. This was solved in 1997 through a "10
non-call five/seven step-up." A call provision is put in from one day after year five or year seven and the bank is allowed to
call it with five full years as 100% capital treatment. A coupon step-up is put in at the end of year five or seven to allow for
the bond to roll over for a further five year period.
The sum of Tier I and Tier 2 capital, less certain deductions, represents a bank’s total capital.
It should be noted that in the United States, The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB Act) currently requires a bank holding
company (BHC) to keep its subsidiary depository institutions “well capitalized” and “well managed” in order to qualify as a
financial holding company (FHC). FHC status allows a BHC to engage in riskier financial activities such as merchant
banking, insurance underwriting, and securities underwriting and dealing. The GLB Act does not, however, require an FHC
to be “well capitalized” or “well managed” on a consolidated basis.
Contingent Core Tier 1 Capital / CoCos is debt that will automatically convert into equity shares of the bank if the
bank's core capital ratio declines below a specific level. This is a hybird form of capital, which may be drawn upon in the
event that the bank's balance sheet or earnings are under pressure. However, the amount of equity capital that is provided
my be insufficient or it may send the wrong signal to the marketplace with regard to the financial health of the bank.

Risk Weighting Assets


The Basel I guidelines on risk weighting asset classes has been revised by the Basel II framework.

Please also see A Guide to the 2004 Capital Accord of the Basel Committee (Basel II)
Capital Adequacy ratio which is calculated by dividing the bank's core capital by the bank's total risk-weighted assets, then
multiply by 100.
Core Capital Adequacy ratio which is calculated by dividing the bank's risk-based capital by the bank's total risk-weighted
assets, then multiply by 100.
The BIS Risk-weighted Assets guidelines were adopted by the Board of Governors of the federal Reserve (Code of Federal
Regulations Title 12, Volume 5; Revised as of January 1, 2002). These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy
based primarily on the perceived credit risk associated with balance sheet assets, as well as certain off-balance sheet
exposures such as unused loan commitments, letters of credit, and derivative and foreign exchange contracts. The risk-
based capital guidelines are supplemented by a leverage ratio requirement. To be "well capitalized" under Federal bank
regulatory agency definitions, a bank holding company must have a Tier 1 ratio of at least 6%, a combined Tier 1 and Tier
2 ratio of at least 10%, and a leverage ratio of at least 3%, and not be subject to a directive, order, or written agreement
to meet and maintain specific capital levels.

13. Indirect ownership interests in pools of assets. Assets representing an indirect holding of a pool of assets,
e.g., mutual funds, are assigned to risk-weight categories under this section based upon the risk weight that
would be assigned to the assets in the portfolio of the pool. An investment in shares of a mutual fund whose
portfolio consists primarily of various securities or money market instruments that, if held separately, would be
assigned to different risk-weight categories, generally is assigned to the risk-weight category appropriate to the
highest risk-weighted asset that the fund is permitted to hold in accordance with the investment objectives set
forth in its prospectus
Off-balance sheet items are included in determining risk-weighted assets after reduction by specific reserves.

 1. Letters of credit, guarantees or guarantee-type instruments secured by deposits with the issuing bank
Risk-weighted 20%
 1. Unused, non-callable credit lines with original maturity up to one year
 2. Revocable letters of credit
Is the bank increasing its capital from the growth of retained earnings? Does it have the ability to raise capital? Banks,
securities firms and finance companies should show increasing capital due to the growth of principal risk-taking/trading
and the growth of derivatives business which results in these firms taking more off-balance sheet risk. Banks and
Investment Banks must also allocate capital to new/growing international operations.
Leverage is the relationship between the risk-weighted assets of a bank and its equity. Securities firms look at Net Assets
divided by Equity as Leverage.

Key Ratios for Examining Capital Adequacy

Equity Capital
Equity Capital / Average Assets

 This is a primary measurement for judging capital strength.


 Equity capital is defined as the total of common stock, surplus, perpetual preferred stock, undivided profits and capital
reserves before FASB 115 & 133 adjustments.
 Intangibles and net unrealized holding gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities are excluded from Capital.
Tier 1 Leveage Ratio
Tier 1 Capital / Total Tangible Assets (Total Assets less Goodwill and Intangibles)

 Utilized by federal and state banking agencies to determine one of the components of capital adequacy ("Well
Capitalized" is equal to or greater than 5%).
 The greater the number the more capital there is to cover problems on the asset side of the blance sheet.
 For most small to medium-sized banks, Tier 1 Capital generally consists of only common equity, which is the sum of
common stock, surplus and retained earnings.

Tier 1 Risk-based Capital Ratio


Tier 1 Capital / Total Risk-adjusted Assets

 Required to be a minimum 6.0% to be "Well Capitalized"


 Risk-adjusted assets go through the analysis and "weighting" process outlined at the top of this section.

Tier 2 Risk-based Capital Ratio or Total Risk Capital Ratio


Tier 2 Capital / Total Risk-adjusted Assets

 Required to be a minimum 8.0% to be "Well Capitalized"


 For most small banks supplemental / Tier 2 capital is usually the loan loss reserve

Texas Ratio
Delinquent Loans + Non-performing Assets / Capital + Loan Loss Reserves.

 If the ratio is 100% or higher then the bank may be in imminent danger of failing.
 If the ratio is between 50% and 100% then a capital infusion is necessary. The ratio is a quick way to determine the
bank's ability to absorb losses.

Asset Quality
The Assets of a bank are:
 Cash (unrestricted)
 Fed funds sold
 Trading portfolio (securities, although banks also tend to include derivative contracts in this category)
 Securities (available for sale are liquid; held to term as less liquid)
 Loans (various counterparties, collateral and maturities; lease contracts may also be included in this
category)
 Fixed assets (some banks own their headquarters and/or branches, as opposed to leasing, which can be sold
to raise cash)
Asset Quality evaluates risk (and there must be some risk to earn a return), controllability, adequacy of loan loss reserves,
and acceptable earnings; and the affect of off-balance sheet earnings and loss. The quality of a bank's assets hinges on
their ability to be collected a during and at maturity. Thus, one must examine the portfolio quality, the portfolio
classification system (aging schedule and the methodology to classifying a receivable) and the fixed assets (the
productivity of the long-term assets, for instance the branch network). It is also necessary to determine the liquidity and
the maturity structure of various Assets. Investing in assets is how a bank primarily earns a return. How well are these
assets going to perform?
Earning Assets: interest bearing financial instruments which are principally commercial, real estate, and consumer loans;
investment securities and trading account securities; money market investments; lease finance receivables; time deposits
placed in foreign banks.
Risk-based / Risk Weighted Assets: Some investments and loans are riskier than others and regulators realize that there
should be a flexible scale of allocating bank reserve capital to these various types of assets. For instance, a bank that has
U.S Treasury securities in its portfolio of securities does not have to assign any capital reserve for this particular asset.
Risk assets: loans to affiliates, other loans, interest receivables and other assets.
Loans are usually the largest asset category for a bank:
 Change in loan volume, why has it grown or contracted, what percentage has it grown/contract?
 Loan mix: what part of the portfolio is growing (consumer vs. commercial)
 Is the bank overly exposed in one sector (i.e. commercial real estate, industry sector, country) and what is
the environment for the performance and value of the assets?
Title 12 USC 85 regulates the maximum rate of interest that national banks may charge on most types of loans. Banks that
charge a higher rate violate the law and may trigger the penalties for usury described in 12 USC 86. Section 85 authorizes
national banks to charge interest on loans at the rates allowed by the states in which the bank is located. A national bank
is considered to be located in states in which it has either its main office or a branch. If state law permits state lenders to
make loans without interest rate limitations, then national banks may make the same types of loans without interest rate
limitations. Section 85 also provides that on all loans, national banks may charge 1.0% more than the discount rate on 90-
day commercial paper in effect at the Federal Reserve bank in the district in which the bank is located. For example, if the
discount rate is 7.0%, than national banks may charge 8.0%, discounted in advance, without regard to state usury laws.
Under section 85, a national bank may charge the maximum rate of interest permitted by state law for any state-chartered
or state-licensed lending institution. A national bank that charges a higher interest rate on a specified class of loans, as
allowed by state law, is subject to the provisions relative to that class of loans that are material to the determination of the
interest rate. For example, when a state law allows finance companies to charge 20 percent on certain loans, but limits
state banks to 16 percent, national banks may charge 20 percent. However, national banks would be limited to charging
the higher rate only on the same size and type of loans that finance companies are allowed to make. Title 12 USC 85
permits national banks to charge interest rates as permitted by a state in which the bank is located. For an intrastate
bank, that is the state where its main office is located. For an interstate bank, that also generally will be the state in which
the bank has its main office though, in some circumstances, an interstate national bank may be required, or may have the
authority, to charge rates permitted by a state in which one or more of its branches is located.
What percentage of loans (either separate portfolios of consumer loans and commercial loans and/or combined) are
delinquent 30 day? What percentage of total loans are delinquent 90 days? What percentage of total loans are non-
performing (over 90-day, non-accrual and restructured).
What is the percentage of charge-offs to total loans (consumer and commercial receivbles)? What is the percentage
change of charge-offs from the previous fiscal period?
Loan Loss Reserve: is created and built up by placing operating income (provisions) in an account on the asset-side of
the blanace sheet, and which must be a sufficiently funded amount to cover actual or anticipated losses.
 Also referred to as the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL).
 Specific reserves against identified impaired loans are specifed in Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 114 (Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan—an amendment of FASB Statements No.
5 and 15) and tatement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118 (Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of
a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 114)
If there is a problem with the repayment of a loan, the interest will sometimes be capitalized. Interest begins accruing on
a loan as soon as it is disbursed. The interest can be repaid as scheduled or it can be capitalized, which means that the
interest will continue to accrue and will be added to the loan principal amount thereby increasing the loan principal
amount, which is then the new balance that is used to compute interest for the next period. The net effect of capitalization
is that it increases the total amount paid over the lifetime of the loan.
Asset Growth Rate: computed by subtracting prior-period total assets from current-period total assets, then dividing the
difference by prior-period total assets, indicates the state of economic condition and/or the philosophy (which wants to
rapidly increase or slowly increase the asset side of the balance sheet).

Key Ratios for Examining Asset Quality

Loan Loss Reserves to Total Loans Ratio


Loan Loss Reserves / Total Loans

 This is a primary measurement for judging capital strength.


 Traditionally the amount is a minimum 1.0% but it is not sure if it is adequate unless it is compared to Provisions/Total
loans: percentage of provisions from fiscal income statement as a percentage of the portfolio.
 Intangibles and net unrealized holding gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities are excluded from Capital.

Coverage Ratio
Loan Loss Reserves / Non-Performing or Non-current Loansand leases

 Non-performing or Non-current loans consist of loans that are 90 days or more overdue and still accruing and
nonaccrual loans.
 Also sometimes known as the coverage ratio, should be in excess of 1.5x

Overdue Loans to Total Loan Ratio


Total Loans 30-89 Days Past Due / Total Loans

 Indicates that either credit underwriting standards are inappropriate or collection procedures are inadequate.

90-Day Overdue Loans to Total Loans Ratio


Total Loans 90-Days Past Due / Total Loans

 Indicates that the loan portfolio may be experiencing some deterioration through either poor underwriting and/or
collections.

Management Structure
 Is the bank newly privatized from government ownership?
 What is the ownership structure of the bank? (Government support? Independently capitalized or a branch?
Can rely on parent support implicit/explicit?)
 Is as small branch network a constraint on business?
 Loan portfolio management, credit administration, policy development, employee training, loan workout
 Is it possible to determine Governence, Audit oversight and Strategic planning?

Earnings (Profitability)
Earnings determine the ability of a bank to increase capital (through retained earnings), absorb loan losses, support the
future growth of assets, and provide a return to investors. The largest source of income for a bank is net interest revenue
(interest income from lending activity less interest paid on deposits and debt). The second most important source is from
investing activity. A substantial source of income also comes from foreign exchange and precious metal trading, and
commissions/transaction fees and trust operations.
New banks, or De Novo banks, are usually not profitable for the first two to three years as they develop their core business
operations, hire employees, open branches and may also have to pay a higher interest rate to attract deposits. What the
analyst should look at in this case is the "burn rate" (on a monthly and quarterly basis), which is an indication of how
much of the initial equity investment (stockholder's equity) is being used up to cover operating expenses. What needs to
be demonstrated is that income is increasing faster than expenses and the monthly and quaterly losses are decreasing,
hence equity is not decreasing as rapidly.
Overall, the issues to consider include:
 What is the concentration of business: retail, trade finance, corporate, mortgage, merchant, personal,
investment, portfolio management, asset financing, leasing, advisory, nominee and custodial services, executor
and trustee?
 Are the bank's core earnings in its home market only?
 What is the ratio between interest and non-interest income sources?
 Is operating income declining compared to previous periods due to insufficient revenue or higher operating
expense?
 Is net income low due to non-accrual loans?
 Is an improvement in revenue and earnings coming from extraordinary / non-recurring items? Would the
elimination of this one-time item actually result in a loss? Is the increase in earnings derived from the adoption
of new accounting standards?
The need to charge provisions for loan and lease losses against earnings can also reduce profitability, at lease on a
quarterly basis. The bank's management has to look at what type of loans are in the portfolio, what the preformance is of
the portfolio and what is happening with national, regional and local economic conditions. For instance, recession, increase
in bankruptcies, increase in unemployment, local corporate layoffs and plant closings, drought, low farm prices, and so on
suggest rising numbers of delinquent loans that the bank must correctly estimate and have sufficent reserves thus
provisions may be taken against earnings just as the bank's revenues may be declining. Conversely, if economic conditions
are deteriorating and the bank is not provisioning for anticipated losses in order to maintain profitability then problems
may develop during the next fiscal period.

Key Ratios for Examining Profitability


Net Interest Margin
Net Interest Income (annualized) / Average Interest Earning Assets

 This is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.


 Net interest income is derived by subtracting interest expense from interest income.
 Indicates how well management employed the earning asset base (the denominator focuses strictly on assets that
generate income).
 May come under pressure from offering preferential rates to customer base, a low level of growth in savings and the
higher percentage of more expensive wholesale funds available. The lower the net interest margin, approximately 3.0% or
lower, generally it is reflective of a bank with a large volume of non-earning or low-yielding assets.
 Conversely, are high or increasing margins the result of a favorable interest rate environment, or are they the result of
the bank moving out of safe but low-yielding, low-return securities into higher-risk, higher yielding and less liquid loans or
investment securities?

Return on Average Assets (ROAA)


Net operating income (annualized) after taxes (including realized gain or loss on investment securities) / Total Average
Assets (assets at the previous fiscal year plus assets at this current fiscal year divided by 2) for a given fiscal year

 Actual net income should be examined for the inclusion of extraordinary earnings (which may be excluded).
 This measures how the assets are utilized by indicating the profitability of the assets base or asset mix.
 Ranges from approximately 0.60% to under 2.0% for U.S. Banks. Historically in the U.S. the benchmark was 1.0% or
better for the bank to be considered to be doing well. De novo banks are usually below the 1.0% benchmark.
If the bank is a Subchapter S Corp. then the coporation is treated as a pass-through entity and is not subject to Federal
income taxes at the corporate level. Therefore, an adjustment to net income is needed to improve the comparability
between banks that are taxed at the corporate level and those that are not.

Return on Average Equity (ROAE)


Net operating income after taxes (including realized gain or loss on investment securities) / Total (average) equity
(common stock) for a given fiscal year

 This ratio is affected by the level of capitalization of the financial institution.


 Measures the ability to augment capital internally (increase net worth) and pay a dividend.
 Measures the return on the stockholder's investment (not considered an effective measure of earnings performance
from the bank's standpoint).
 In the long run, a return of around 15% to 17% is regarded as necessary to provide a proper dividend to shareholders
and maintain necessary capital strengths.
Adjusted ROE or ROAE: Net income / Total equity plus loan loss reserves in excess of 10% of equity.

Return on Earning Assets (ROEA)


Revenue from loans, securities, cash equivalents and earning assets (including non-interest) before interest expense /
Earning Assets

 Measures the results of operations prior to funding costs and as if the operations were totally funded by equity.

Operating Profit Margin


Operating profits (before the loan loss provision and excluding gains or losses from asset sales and amortization expense
of intangibles) / Net operating revenues (interest income less interest expense plus noninterest income)

 This ratio measures the percent of net operating revenues consumed by operating expenses, providing the remaining
operating profit (the higher the margin the more efficient the bank).
 Inverse of the efficiency ratio.
Non-interest Income to Average Assets Ratio
Non-Interest Income (annualized) / Total Average Assets

 Non-interest income is income derived from fee-based banking services such as service charges on deposit accounts,
consulting and advisory fees, rental of safe deposit boxes and other fee income, fiduciary, brokerage and insurance
activities.
 Realized gains on the sale of securities is excluded.
 It is important that a bank devlop non-interest income sources but it should become a major portion of the bank's total
revenue unless it really is an annual core business operation.

Average Collection of Interest (Days)


Accrued Interest Receivable / Interest Income x 365

 This is a measurement of the number of days interest on earning assets remains uncollected and indicates that volume
of overdue loans is increasing or repayment terms are being extended to accommodate a borrower's inability to properly
service debt.

Overhead Ratio
Total Non-Interest Expenses (annualized) / Total Average Assets

 Non-interest expenses (annualized), which are the normal operating expense associated with the daily operation of a
bank such as salaries and employee benefits plus occupancy / fixed asset costs plus depreciation and amortization.
 These costs tend to rise faster than income in a time of inflation or if the institution is expanding by the purchase or
construction of a new branches.
 Provisions for loan and lease losses, realized losses on securities and income taxes should not be included in non-
interest expense.

Efficiency Ratio
Total Non-interest expenses / Total Net Interest Income (before provisions) plus Total Non-Interest Income

 Efficiency improves as the ratio decreases, which is obtained by either increasing net interest income, increasing non-
interest revenues and/or reducing operating expenses.
 Non-interest expenses (expenses other than interest expense and loan loss provisions, such as salaries and employee
benefits plus occupancy plus depreciation and amortization) tend to rise faster than income in a time of inflation.
 This is a measure of productivity of the bank, and is targeted at the middle to low 50% range. This may seem like
break-even but it is not; what this is saying is that for every dollar the bank is earning it gets to keep 50 cents and it has
to spend 50 cents to earn that dollar. The ratio can be as low as the mid to low 40% range, which means that for every
dollar the bank earns it gets to keep 60 cents and spends 40 cents, a very efficient bank.
 Ratios in excess of 75% mean the bank is very expensive to operate.

Funding & Liquidity


Funding and Liquidity are related, however they are separate situations. Funding is what a bank relies upon to grow its
business and the asset side of the balance sheet above and beyond what could be accomplished with just equity. Funding
is provided by deposits, short-term debt and longer-term debt. Funding means access to capital.
Liquidity is what a bank requires if Funding is interrupted and the bank must still be able to meet certain obligations
(bank's ability to repay depositors and other creditors without incurring excessive costs). What is the liability structure /
composition of the institution’s liabilities, including their tenor, interest rate, payment terms, sensitivity to changes in the
macroeconomic environment, types of guarantees required on credit facilities, sources of credit available to the institution
and the extent of resource diversification.
A bank's least expensive means of funding loan growth is through deposit accounts. When this is not available, banks must
rely on more expensive funding sources such as borrowing funds at wholesale rates or liquidating investment securities
portfolios. The best type of deposits are "core" deposits, which are balances that are left at the bank due to convenience
(the depositor resides in the area) or through loayalty. Non-core deposits / funding are sources that can be very sensitive
to changes in interest rates such as brokered deposits, CDs greater than $100,000, and borrowed money.
The Deposit Growth Rate, which is computed by subtracting prior-period total deposits from current-period total
deposits, then dividing the difference by prior-period total deposits, indicates how a bank is funding the asset side of its
balance sheet.
Funding sources also include:
 Net earnings
 Issuance of common and preferred securities
 Trust preferred securities
 Commercial paper
 Senior debt
 Subordinated debt
 Securitizing various financial assets including credit card receivables and other receivables generally secured
by collateral such as single-family residences and automobiles
 Monetizing investment securities
Liquidity refers to reserves of cash, securities, a bank's ability to convert an asset into cash, and unused bank lines of
credit. The faster the conversion the more liquid the asset. Illiquidity is a risk in that a bank might not be able to convert
the asset to cash when most needed. Moreover, having to wait for the sale of an asset can pose an additional risk if the
price of the asset decreases while waiting to liquidate. Thus, if loans or assets are illiquid then liquidity is also limited,
especially if the loans exceed stable deposits and available lines of credit. Liquidity must be sufficient to meet all maturing
unsecured debt obligations due within a one-year time horizon without incremental access to the unsecured markets.
Probably the most critical issue to examine for a bank is the ability to meet obligations. If earnings are poor and liquidity is
high, the bank's lending may be too conservative, with a high proportion of proceeds from deposits are invested in low
yielding liquid assets. If earnings are low and liquidity is low, then the bank may have an aggressive lending policy coupled
with heavy borrowing. It examines "internal" sources of funds: maturing loans and marketable securities; and "external"
sources of funds: is the bank dependent on large deposits from a single source or does it have a large and stable retail
funding base? (single sources should not exceed 10% of short-term liabilities).
Liquidity Gap Analysis is an attempt to measure future funding needs of a bank by comparing the amount of assets and
liabilities maturing over time.
The overall goal of management in the asset/liability/capital structure of the institution is to maximize the return earned
from the assets, with the lowest risk profile and default ratio, and also minimize the cost of funds as much as possible to
widen the spread between earnings and expenses (manage the net interest margin); and to utilize leverage over invested
capital.
Liquidity Management: "cash-out" or the risk of being illiquid when cash is needed.
 Sources and uses of funds approach: liquidity required for deposit withdrawals and loan demand.
 Structure of deposits approach: focuses on the stability of deposit liabilities.
Awareness of gap management: gap analysis is a measurement of interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities. If a
company has a negative duration gap that means that its assets are paying off faster than its liabilities. The response can
either be defensive or aggressive with regard to managing the spread between the yields of the institution's assets and
their income from service sales and the cost of carrying on their operations, especially the return paid to savers to attract
deposits and equity investments.
Management's goal for assets:
Primary reserves
 Sufficient cash on hand to cover customer deposits and withdrawals or clearing and collecting check
payments; and maintain contemporaneous reserve requirements.
 Cash in the vault is not earning interest.
 Cash/total assets ratio rises in relation to the size of the institution.
Secondary reserves
 Marketable securities portfolio: short-term and liquid for cash needs and pledging collateral.
 U. S. Treasury: relatively short-term maturities, increasing to 20% of total assets due to favorable tax and
capital reserve treatment.
 Securities of states and municipalities: declined due to less favorable tax and capital treatment.
Loans
 At a rate in excess of the cost of funds, to borrower with a good credit profile.
 Rates on corporate loans have been declining due to disintermediation/competition.
 Real estate loans have the highest margin but are less liquid and riskier.
 Total loans tend to approximate 60% of the total assets.
Liquidity Management related to assets: match maturity of assets with liquidity needs.
 The historical decline in liquid assets on hand is related to better management.
 Anticipation of deposit and loan changes.
 If the bank invests for yield, it will not be able to cover demands.
 Could be covered by liquidation of assets and borrowings.
 Commercial loan theory: confine loans to short-term, self-liquidating commercial loans.
 Money market approach: hold money market instruments such as Treasury bills, CP or banker's
acceptances.
Management's goal for liabilities: to also manage sources of funds (not just uses of funds/asset management) to meet
liquidity requirements; and increase income potential.
Funding requirements.
 Customer deposits: the least expensive source of funding for the institution. The institution is seeking "core
deposits," or passive accounts that stay with the institution out of loyalty or convenience (checking accounts,
savings certificates and regular savings accounts). What happens if a bank experiences a credit ratings
downgrade: deposits from local municipalities, state governments, escrow accounts and fiduciary deposits must
be withdrawn if the downgrade results in a non-investment grade rating.
 Non-deposit borrowed funds: cost more than customer deposit funds
 Federal funds for short-term liquidity.
 CDs if funding is needed for a longer period
Liquidity Management related to Liabilities:
 Interest rates may be higher when the institution seeks to acquire funds.
 Requires that the financial condition of the bank be strong.
Management's goal for Capital: provide the buffer to absorb losses, must maintain adequate equity capital to satisfy
regulatory requirements, and have a financial condition that allows it to borrow funds.
 Must meet BIS risk assets to capital guidelines: 4% Tier one, 8% including Tier two capital; risk weighted
asset categories.
 If condition has weakened, then funds will cost more.
It is poor liquidity, as opposed to poor asset quality or inadequate capital, that leads to most bank failures.

Key Ratios for Examining Liquidity

Loans as a Percentage of Deposits


Loans (gross) / Total Deposits

 Indicates the percentage of a bank's loans funded through deposits (measures funding by borrowing as opposed to
equity)
 Maximum 80% to 90% (the higher the ratio the more the institution is relying on borrowed funds)
 However, cannot also be too low as loans are considered the highest and best use of bank funds (indicates excess
liquidity).
 Between 70% to 80% indicates that the bank still has capacity to write new loans.
 A high loan-to-deposit ratio indicates that a bank has fewer funds invested in readily marketable assets, which provide
a greater margin of liquidity to the bank.

Liquid Assets to Total Deposits


Liquid Assets / Total Deposits

 Measures deposits matched to investments and whether they could be converted quickly to cover redemptions.

BOPEC
BOPEC was the former bank holding company examination ratings system. Bank Holding Companies (BHC) are usually the
stock-issuing entity within a banking organization and the BHC can have a number of operating subsidiaries. BOPEC was
designed to examine the subsidiary operations as the condition of a BHC is closely related to the condition of its subsidiary
banks. The examination of the bank holding company by federal regulators in the United States would rate banks on a
scale from 1 to 5 with 1 being the highest rating and 5 being close to insolvency. The system was replaced by RFI/CD (see
next below).
BHC's Bank subsidiaries condition
Other nonbank subsidiaries / affiliates condition
Parent company condition
Earnings Comsolidated poistion of the parent
Capital Consolidated position of the parent

RFI/CD
As of January 2005, the BHC evaluation system was revised to the acronym RFI/CD which stands for:
Risk management (R) such as policies, procedures, limits, risk monitoring and managment information systems.
Financial condition (F) such as Capital, Asset Quality, Earnings and Liquidity.
Impact (I) of the parent company and nondepository entities on subsidiary depository institutions.
Composite rating (C), which is the BHC's overall evaluation and rating of its managerial and financial condition and an
assessment of future potential risk to its subsidiary depository institution(s).
Depository institutions (D), which is the assessment of the subsidiary depository institutions by the primary regulator.

Book Value
If the financial istitution had to be shut down immediately, the book value of the financial institution is equal to the Total
Assets minus Liabilities, Preferred Stock, and Intangible Assets. However, this is a straight arithmetic exercise. The reality
is that a distressed bank has impaired or hard to sell assets and it is not likely that another bank or investor is going to
purchase them at par. Thus, the assets must be examined to determine whether there are any secured lenders who have a
claim on assets, what type of securities is the financial institution holding in its portfolio and what is the present
performance of the loan portfolio. The fixed assets are not going to be readily marketable and the fixtures and furniture
will either disappear with employees or be of salvage value only. Liabilities usually tend to be definite in value while assets
tend to have fluctuating or questionable value.

Issues Affecting Banks


 Further disintermediation of bank assets: trend toward the securitization of assets by corporate customers
(banks will decrease as primary suppliers of credit to high quality borrowers. This means that a higher
proportion of bank's remaining credit exposure will be to less marketable credits where there is less demand
and less hedging instruments available) and the increasing use of mutual funds and private pension funds by
consumer customers.
 The continuing increase in non-bank competitors offering similar services.
 Continued deregulation and globalization of services.
 Increased technological innovation and technology costs in order to compete effectively.
 How to differentiate and appropriately price services such as origination, structuring and administration.
 Consistent risk pricing and Basle Committee capital requirements for credit risk.

Considering the economic slowdown and the risks in going for


exponential growth, your Bank had opted for a consolidation phase. But
at the same time, the Bank used the opportunity for reaching out to new
areas through Branch expansion, putting up of new ATMs and to improve
and enhance various channels. Strategic investments were also made to
enhance the shareholder value .

OPERATING PROFIT

Operating Profit registered a small growth from Rs.l, 259.78 crore to


reach Rs. 1,264.85 crore. The liquidity overhang throughout the period
under review affected the growth of operating profit. There was an
increase in net interest income from Rs.l, 315.46 crore to Rs. 1,410.83
crore and the non-interest income has gone up from Rs.515.77 crore to
Rs. 530.91 crore.

INCOME GROWTH

The interest/discount income from advances has gone up from Rs.2564.25


crore to Rs.2, 849.73 crore. In spite of the uncertainties prevailed
in the economy, the Bank could create select good quality earning
assets. Bank continued to enjoy a decent interest spread (4.75%) on
advances. Based on the increase in interest income, total income has
gone up from Rs.3831.15 crore to Rs.4204.14 crore registering a growth
of 9.74%. Income from advances as percentage to total income was
67.78%. Income from investments recorded an increase of Rs. 118.86
crore and touched Rs.894.90 crore. Cumulative income from advances and
investments recorded a growth of 11.92% and stood at Rs. 3,744.63 crore
against Rs. 3,345.79 crore of the previous year. Yield on advances
moved in tandem with the market movement of interest rates and
decreased by 100 bps to 11.30%. Return on advances plus investments
decreased to 10.20%% from 11 %. As a result of the adverse movement in
the yield on advances, the net interest margin declined from 4.28% to
3.82% , still one of the best in the industry. The growth in other
income was marginal with a growth of 2.93%from a level of Rs.515.77
crore to Rs.530.91 crore. Recovery from written off accounts
contributed Rs.l 27.70 crore as against Rs.l 32.77 crore during the
last financial year.

The net revenue, that is the net interest income plus other income, of
the Bank increased by Rs. 110.51 crore fromRs. 1,831.23 crore as on
March 31, 2009 to Rs. 1,941.74 crore.

EXPENDITURE

The Bank embarked upon organic expansion adding 60 branches and 115
ATMs. Total expenses for the financial year 2009-10 increased from Rs.
2,571.37 crore, to Rs. 2,939.29 crore registering an increase of 14.31
%. Interest expenses increased from Rs. 1,999.92 crore in FY 09 to Rs.
2,262.40 crore in FY 10. Cost of all funds (deposits plus borrowings
plus bonds) decreased to 6.62% from 7.08% of last financial year. Cost
of deposits witnessed a downward trend and has fallen by 43 bps to
6.55% from last years 6.98%. The Bank was conscious in shedding bulk
deposits and concentrated on retail deposits. Interest rates did not
show large movements during the last financial year. Operating expenses
increased by Rs. 105.44 crore and amounted to Rs, 676.89 crore.
Employee costs came to Rs.366.05 crore during the year compared to last
years figure of Rs. 317.45 crore. Other operating expenses came to Rs.
310.84 crore. Employee costs as percentage to total income has gone up
from 8.29% for the year ended March 31, 2009 to 8.71% for the year
ended March 31, 2010. Cost to income ratio is 34.86% (31.21% % in FY
2008-09) which is still one of the best in the industry. This figure is
maintained even after the spurt in recruitment during the last 2
financial years and increase in other operating expenses including
expenses for technological advancement.

NET PROFIT

The net profit for the year after making all provisions, was Rs.464.55
crore as on March 31,2010 as against Rs. 500.49 crore showing a
marginal decrease of 7.18%. Total provisions amounted to Rs. 800.30
crore, excluding Income Tax provisions amounting to Rs.395 crore. The
profit margin decreased from 13.07% to

11.05%. Return on average equity stood at 10.30%. Earnings per share


was at Rs.27.16 and the return on average total assets at 1.15%. Book
value increased from Rs.252.93 as on March 31, 2009 to Rs.274.24 as of
March 31, 2010.

DIVIDEND

The Bank has been consistently rewarding shareholders through cash pay
outs after taking into account the requirement for ploughing back of
profits to support growth. Retained profits add impetus for the future
growth and enhance the value of the stake of the shareholders. In view
of the satisfactory performance, the Board of Directors recommends a
dividend of 50% on the paid up capital of the Bank which is the same
percentage as that of last financial year.
