 The main purpose of this study is to explore the current credit risk identification techniques used by Nepalese commercial banks. A questionnaire was developed and surveyed to 9 commercial banks operating in Nepal. This paper attempts to ascertain the perceptions of Nepalese bankers about the importance of credit identification techniques and the practice of various tools to identify the risk related with the borrowers. The result of the study indicates that the Nepalese bankers are aware of the importance of various techniques to effectively identify the risk level. Furthermore, the Nepalese commercial banks have used various techniques like interview, root cause effect, check list analysis, Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threat (SWOT) analysis, scenario analysis, expert judgment, simulation, stress testing etc. In addition, there was significant difference between all three categories of bank, namely State-Owned bank with Private Bank, State-Owned bank with Joint Venture Bank, and Joint Venture Bank with Private Bank in terms of tools and techniques used for credit risk identification.

Credit monitoring is performed by the banks as post approval activities for existing credit clients to indentify the early warning single of credit risk. So that, the study was accomplish to observe the credit monitoring practice in Nepalese commercial banks.  The study was based on a sample of 10 commercial banks, comprising 5 private sector banks and 5 joint venture banks.  This paper attempts to determine the awareness of Nepalese bankers about the significance of credit monitoring as risk identification tools. The result of the study indicates that the periodically review of the security documents, credit processing procedure, compliance of covenants setup during credit approval, technique to control default, risk reporting, review of loan account and regular follow-up  were differently used as credit monitoring practice in  private sector and joint venture  banks in Nepal. These factors also found significant predictor for credit monitoring. Moreover, there was a positive relationship between credit monitoring practice and its factors instead of technique to control default.Credit monitoring is performed by the banks as post approval activities for existing credit clients to indentify the early warning single of credit risk.

This study examines how risk management practices can be influenced by factors, including understanding risk management, risk assessment & analysis, risk identification, risk monitoring and credit risk analysis in commercial banks of Pakistan. The collected data satisfied the reliability requirement and regression and correlation analyses were adopted. The results suggest that understanding risk and risk management (URM), risk assessment and analysis (RAA), risk identification (RI), risk monitoring (RM) and credit risk analysis (CRA) have positive significant impact on risk management practices (RMP). This suggests that commercial banks in Pakistan need to pay attention to URM, RAA, RI, RM and RA. Moreover, RM and RAA are prominent variables which influence RMP; therefore commercial banks of Pakistan should focus on RM and RAA

Due to the huge loss to the bank caused by credit risk in the financial debt crisis of the international Banking industry in 1980s, the research on Credit Assessment Methods is becoming the central issue of the study of financial theory in China and abroad. This paper builded the assets financial evaluation system of credit risk level based on the association rules-Apriori algorithm of data mining technology, which aimed the problems and the serious shortage of risk quantification study in domestic banks credit risk management. At the same time, taking into account the actual situation of our country, this paper analyzed that there are certain difficulties to use modern credit risk measurement models to evaluation the credit risk of commercial banks. And it suggests building a credit portfolio risk measurement model suitable for China's commercial banks with using logistic regression model of data mining technology.

This paper examines the accounting performance of the Islamic banking among (??) commercial banks in Malaysia. A total of 18 commercial banks which include 4 Islamic banks are selected as samples covering the period of 2000 - 2006. Accounting performance is measured by the return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). The objective of the study is (1) to determine whether Islamic banking performance is at par with the conventional banking and (2) to investigate whether the type (Islamic or conventional bank) and age of bank influence the performance. Result of the independence t-test of the study shows that there is no significant difference in the performance of the Islamic and the conventional banking in Malaysia although the mean score for conventional banking is higher. The regression results show that the age of banks has a positive impact on the bank performance where as none of the types of banks influence performance.

The present study was carried out to knowing effect different storage periods of the microbial quality for the Powdered Infant Formula (PIF) after opening the tin, and ensuring from the safety note (after opening, use within 3 weeks). Thirty (30) samples of (PIF) from category (1 – 6 months) in five different types are collected from pharmacies and local markets in Baquba city / Iraq, which are used as substitutes for breast milk during the first day of opening the tin powders such as Total viable count, Total coliform count, Salmonella count and Yeast and Molds count. These experiments repeated at each week of same samples within (5) weeks. Results were obtained at opening the tin, Total viable count (less than 0.05 1.0 x 103 ±1.5x10 CFU/g) were significantly higher than Total Coliform count (less than 0.05 ± 0.3 x 10 CFU/g) and Total Salmonella count (less than 0.05 0 x 10 CFU/g) and Yeasts and Molds (less than 0.05 ± 0.3 x 10 CFU/g). while results obtained at fifth week were (less than 0.05 8.8 x 103 ±5.5x102 CFU/g), (less than 0.05 0.9 x 102 ± 0.4x101 CFU/g), (less than 0.05 0 x 10 CFU/g), (less than 0.05 9.5 x 10 ± 1.2x101 CFU /g) respectively. All samples of (PIF) having non-significant difference. These results compared to Iraqi Quality Standards (IQS), all the results from the opening samples to fifth week were within the range of IQS and USA Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and as indicates the hygienic condition of (PIF) without risk level for human health. also observed increase in microbial contamination in each week because increase the moisture content for powdered milk. Can be used more than 3 weeks after opening if stored in good conditions with good hygienic practices during milk preparation.

Abstract Purpose Based on recent scientific evidence, bariatric surgery is more effective in the management of morbid obesity and related comorbidities than conservative therapy. Pylorus preserving surgical procedures (PPBS) such as laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodeno-jejunal or duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy are modified duodenal switch (DS) surgical techniques. The duodeno-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) is a novel surgical method in the inventory of metabolism focused manual interventions that excludes duodeno-jejunal mucosa from digestion, mimicking DS procedures without the risk of surgical intervention. The aim of this article is to summarize and compare differences between safety-related features and weight loss outcomes of DJBL and PPBS. Methods A literature search was conducted in the PubMed database. Records of DJBL-related adverse events (AEs), occurrence of PPBS-related complications and reintervention rates were collected. Mean weight, mean body mass index (BMI), percent of excess of weight loss (EWL%), percent of total weight loss (TWL%) and BMI value alterations were recorded for weight loss outcomes. Results A total of 11 publications on DJBL and 6 publications on PPBS were included, involving 800 and 1462 patients, respectively. The baseline characteristics of the patients were matched. Comparison of DJBL-related AEs and PPBS-related severe complications showed an almost equal risk (risk difference (RD): −0.03 and confidence interval (CI): −0.27 to 0.21), despite higher rates among patients having received endoscopic treatment. Overall AE and complication rates classified by Clavien-Dindo showed that PPBS was superior to DJBL due to an excess risk level of 25% (RD: 0.25, CI: 0.01–0.49). Reintervention rates were more favourable in the PPBS group, without significant differences in risk (RD: −0.03, CI: −0.27 to 0.20). However, PPBS seemed more efficient regarding weight loss outcomes at 1-year follow-up according to raw data, while meta-analysis did not reveal any significant difference (odds ratio (OR): 1.08, CI: 0.74–1.59 for BMI changes). Conclusion Only limited conclusions can be made based on our findings. PPBS was superior to DJBL with regard to safety outcomes (GRADE IIB), which failed to support the authors’ hypothesis. Surgical procedures showed lower complication rates than the incidence of DJBL-related AEs, although it should be emphasized that the low number of PPBS-related mild to moderate complications reported could be the result of incomplete data recording from the analysed publications. Weight loss outcomes favoured bariatric surgery (GRADE IIB). As the DJBL is implanted into the upper gastrointestinal tract for 6 to 12 months, it seems a promising additional method in the inventory of metabolic interventions.
