Identifying the cause of rising


delinquency
When were the delinquent loans granted?
Were a majority of the delinquent loans
granted by the credit committee or one
particular loan officer?
Have there been any employee changes that
would affect the quality of loan underwriting
or collection efforts?
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Are the loan officers or credit committee


adequately trained to grant quality loans?
Do the delinquent borrowers have anything in
common? Are they related? Do they live in the
same area? Do they work together? Do they
have similar occupations?
Have the loan underwriting standards
decreased as of late in order to increase loans
outstanding?
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Continuation
Do the loan officers or credit committee
effectively analyze the borrowers ability to
repay the loan granted?
Are the loan and collection policies &
procedures adequate?
When do collection efforts begin once a loan
becomes delinquent? Is this quick enough?
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Continuation
Are collection efforts effective?
Is the collection department adequately staffed
and focused to meet the challenges of high or
increasing delinquency?
Has anyone manipulated the delinquency
information in the past to hide delinquency?
Has there been a major event that is beyond
the cooperatives control?

or collection agencies.
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Problem Resolution

need of legal action should be given to lawyers
or collection agencies.

loans is not accrued when loans become
delinquent.

10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Problem Resolution
Management should determine that the
allowance for loan loss account is adequate for
all potential losses.
The use of loan extension and refinances
should be strictly limited.
If loan underwriting appears to be the source
of problem, the credit policies and procedures
should be revised.
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Problem Resolution
If delinquency is high or increasing due to the
actions of one specific employee, that
individual should be terminated, removed
from the position or placed in another position
or adequately trained.
Loan application forms should be reviewed so
as to collect necessary information.
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Problem Resolution
If loan collection practices appear to be at
fault, the policies and procedures should be
reviewed.
In the cooperatives, collection activity is an
afterthought and the collection work is given
to an employee who has some extra time.

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Collection ..a big challenge


Between effectiveness ,
relationship, social involvement ,
and education
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Because cooperative must


Be efficient
Other time ..coops must create relationship
Other time .it needs social involvement
Other timecoops must do education with the
members
The problem is that coops cannot be all of that .at the
same time so coops must choose what to do and when
.
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

Be efficient .why ???


Because the cooperative invest money in collection
and wants to recuperate the money of the borrowers
for the depositors
A collector paid Php 7,000 pesos a month plus fringe
benefits plus motorcycle could cost up to Php 10,000
pesos a month
How much revenue will a cooperative need to cover
the investment on a collector ?
10/19/15

merlene quiba flores. panabo city

How much per day ??


So 10,000 pesos per month divided by a rate
of interest of :
2% means 500,000 or more than 25,000 a day
1% means 1,000,000 or more than 50,000 a day

Assuming: visiting 20 persons per day means

CONCLUSIONS

problem to many lending institutions in the
Philippines including cooperatives. The causes
of loan delinquency maybe due to unsystematized and passive collection of loan
repayments and members misunderstanding
on their role as cooperative members.

CONCLUSIONS
To deal with delinquency, the cooperative
should have a clear collection and lending
policies as part of financial management.
These policies should be properly
implemented and reviewed. This is the best
way to prevent delinquency to happen.
However, the strictness of such policies should
not hamper the good relationship that exist
between the officers/staff and the members.
