Risk Management Strategies

Objective - The study aims to investigate credit risk management practices and credit risk management strategies of the local private commercial banks in Bangladesh. Methodology -The investigation is conducted based on primary data collected from a set of both closed end and open end questionnaire from 23 out of 39 local private commercial banks in Bangladesh. Descriptive statistics has been used in processing the data and interpreting the results. Findings - The results reveal that credit risk management practice of the sample banks is sound which is attributed to the appropriate implementation of Basel II and credit risk management guidelines the country's central bank. The findings further show that use of Credit risk grading is most popular and effective criteria for measuring the borrowing capacity of the borrowers. In order to control credit risk and preventing losses from credit exposure banks give more focus on collateralization, accurate loan pricing and third party guarantee. Loan is monitored properly and credit reminder is given to the client if principal and interest remain outstanding for three months. The study further reveals that lack of experienced and trained credit officers, lack of genuine market information and Lack of awareness regarding non-genuine borrower are the most important problems of current credit risk management practices in Bangladesh. Novelty - To the best of the knowledge of the authors the study is the first that investigates credit risk management strategies of private commercial banks, especially on Bangladesh. Type of Paper - Empirical Keyword : Bangladesh; Commercial Bank; Credit risk; Credit risk management; Credit risk management strategies.

Credit Risk Assessment

The study is primarily focused on credit risk assessment practices in commercial banks on the basis of their internal efficiency, assessment of assets and borrower. The model of the study is based on the analysis of relationship between credit risk management practices, credit risk mitigation measures and obstacles and loan repayment. Based on a descriptive research approach the study has used survey-based primary data and performed a correlation analysis on them. It discovered that credit risk management practices and credit risk mitigation measures have a positive relationship with loan repayment, while obstacles faced by borrowers have no significant relationship with loan repayment. The study findings can provide good insights to commercial bank managers in analysing their model of credit risk management system, policies and practices, and in establishing a profitable and sustainable model for credit risk assessment, by setting a risk tolerance level and managing credit risks vis-a-vis the prevailing market competition.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of credit risk components on the performance of credit risk management and the growth in non-performing assets (NPAs) of commercial banks in India. Design/methodology/approach The data are obtained from primary and secondary sources. The primary data are collected by administering questionnaire among risk managers of Indian banks. The secondary data on NPAs of Indian banks are from annual reports and Prowess database compiled by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy. Multiple linear regression is used to estimate the models for the study. Findings The results suggest that the identification of credit risk significantly affects the credit risk performance. The results are robust as credit risk identification is negatively related to annual growth in NPAs or loans. There is evidence in support of a priori expectation of better credit risk performance of private banks compared to that of government banks. Practical implications The study has implications for Indian banks suffering from a high level of losses due to bad loans. In addition, it will have implications for the implementation of new Basel Accord norms (Basel III) by the Reserve Bank of India. Social implications The high and rising level of NPAs will have adverse consequences for credit flow in the economy in the absence of appropriate intervention by government and central bank in the form of changes in institutional and regulatory infrastructure. The problems in banking and financial services sector will lead to lower industrial and aggregate economic growth, and lower (or negative) growth in employment. Originality/value There is little evidence on credit risk management practices of Indian banks, and its relationship with credit risk performance and NPA growth. The need for an effective risk management system to manage credit risk assumes importance and urgency in the context of high and rising NPAs of Indian banks, and the consequences for the Indian economy.

Credit risk is one of the major risks in banking operations now-a-days. For sustainable financial performance, credit risk management is of crucial importance. Non-performing loans are the major element of credit risk that negatively affects the banking performance. To cater such risk, banks have to maintain certain percentage of capital as cushion with central bank as per BASEL requirements. Efficient credit risk management contributes positively towards banking profitability. This study aims to investigate, how credit risk and capital adequacy affects the performance of commercial banks in Pakistan. This study identifies the exposure of Pakistani commercial banks towards credit risk and impact of credit risk management practices for 6 years. The findings of this study help the risk managers to ensure prudent credit risk management practices that will help in reducing non-performing loans and improving banking performance.

Tier I

This study analyses the effects of capital adequacy measures on credit risk management practices in Nigeria. The study applies the quasi experimental research design. The secondary time series data were obtained from annual report of the fifteen (15) quoted commercial banks in Nigeria as compiled in the Nigeria Stock Exchange Fact book for the period 1989 to 2015. The dependent variable; credit risk was modelled with the five (5) variants of capital adequacy measures as prescribed in Basel III provisions as our dependent variables. The independent variables were categorized under Tier I, Tier II, capital to total assets, capital conservation Buffer (CCB), Minimum Total capital Ratio (MTC) and counter cyclical capital Buffer (CCyB). The multivariate regression technique was specified and results obtained based on E-views version 9.0. The unit root result shows that the variables were stationary at levels in all except MTC which was stationary at first difference. The conintegration result shows existence of a long run equilibrium relationship between credit risk and capital adequacy. The VAR result shows that changes in credit risk were statistically and significantly influenced by capital adequacy measures. The bi-variate causality test unveils that credit risk granger-causes Tier I, capital to total risk assets, hence there exist a bidirectional link between credit risk and capital adequacy (CCB) though credit risk granger-cause more. The Impulse Response Function result shows that credit risk responded normally and negatively to the selected capital adequacy measures except for MTC ratio. The variance decomposition result unveils that credit risk accounted for own shocks up to 79.30%, this points to the critical nature of credit risk to bank survival and growth. This study concludes that transition from Basel II to Basel III will further mitigate risk management under Basel III capital framework and will also avert systemic failure in banks in Nigeria. It is recommended that risk management should be a matter of policy focus and priority among regulators and operators of bank in Nigeria.
