ORGANIZATION PART

2.1. BANKING HISTORY:

The English word Bank is originated from Italian word banco. The Latin bancus and French

word banque which means a bench. They are of the opinion that the medieval European bankers (i.e.

money changers and money lenders) transacted their banking activities on the benches in market

place. This money changing and money lending business is known as Banking business.

Banks have to compete with local financial institution as well as foreign financial institution in the

market place, banks has to develop appropriate financial structure and should periodically review

and compare their performance with its competitor to build a sound banking institution.

Banks are financial intermediary institutions. The core is to mobilize the financial surplus of saver in

the form of deposits & allocate these savings to the credit worthy borrowers of different sector of

economy in the form of loans & advances. The advance of the intermediary functions between the

savers & investors would certainly in the lower level of savings & investment & thus lower the

economic growth. That development of the financial intermediaries & instrument (both in case of

deposit & advance) will lead to the development of the economy of a country.

reasons may be its underdeveloped banking system. Modern banking system has been plays a vital

role for a nations economic development. Over the last few years the banking world has been

undergoing a lot of change due to deregulation, technological innovations, globalization etc. These

changes also made revolutionary changes of a countrys economy. It is well recognized that there is

an urgent need for better qualified management & better-trained staff in the dynamic global financial

3.1. LOANS and ADVANCES:

In the general sense, the loan means document- any written record which serves as an evidence in

respect of a transaction and be described as anything obtained for recording a transaction.

Documentation may be described as the process or technique of obtaining the relevant documents. A

banker must obtain proper documents executed from the borrower to protect himself against willful

defaults. Moreover, when money is lent against security of some assets, the documents must be got

executed in order to give to the banker a legal and binding charge against those assets.

NCCBL has its own policy formulated in the light of directives and guidelines issued by Bangladesh

Bank from time to time. The main focus of this policy is to maximize profit through feasible

investment ensuring sustainable growth. The bank always tries to extend credit facility to

unconventional sectors along with conventional ones. Various Agri-Projects, IPFF membership, etc.

helped largely to achieve fruitful results. During 2009, the Bank disbursed Tk.50987.68 million.

Advance Deposits ratio was 0.93:1 in 2009.

3.3. CREDIT ANALYSIS: What makes a good loan?

Credit analysis is the analysis of financial statement of business/customers for the purpose of

lending. Credit analysis are conducted to determine whether the customer is creditworthy and

whether the customer has sufficient cash flow and back up assets to repay the loan. The main

purpose of credit analysis is to ascertain whether the loan can be serviced by the customer and

whether the bank is well protected to realize the loan in the event of default by the borrower to repay

the loan.

The quality of credit analysis in our country is very poor. Many of the credit officers even do not

know how to analyze credit proposal or what is its importance in credit making process.


24


25/71

3.4. MAJOR ISSUES ANALYZED IN CREDIT ANALYSIS:

Is the borrower creditworthy?

Whether purpose of the loan is consistent with banks credit policies

and Government regulations.

Whether the customer or his business has the ability to generate

enough cash to repay the loan.

Whether sufficient security has been offered, so that in the event of

default banks fund can be recovered.

Whether bank claims on the security can be established without risk

or with low risk.

Fixing of amount of loan, loan terms and conditions, documentations,etc. meet the needs of the borrower and to protect the interest of the

bank.

3.5. PURPOSE OF LOANS:

Customer must have a well defined purpose for requesting the loan.

The purpose of the loan must be consistent with the banks existing credit policy. The purpose of the loan also should be consistent with the government policy and

regulation.

NCCBL outline industries or lending activities that are discouraged. NCCBL has segregated sectors

to be discouraged based on the following:

sensitive.

Counter parties in

countries subject to UNsanctions.

Bridge Loans relying on

equity/debt issuance as a

source of repayment.

Table: Discouraged Business Types for lending

3.6. BUSINESS POSITION:

1. Cash Flow:

Three source to repay loan:

i. Cash flow generated form sales or income,

ii. The sale or liquidation of assets or

iii. Funds raised by issuing debt or equity securities.Bank prefers cash flow as the principal source of loan payment because assets sale

can weaken borrowing customers and make the banks position as creditor less

secured.

Cash flow= Net profit ( revenue less expenses) + Non cash expenses ( depreciation)

Cash flow= Net profit + Non-cash expenses + addition to account payable- addition

to inventories and accounts receivable.

History of earning and sales: Whether there is history of steady growth in earning or

sales and whether there is high probability that such growth will continue.

2. Condition:

Analyze recent trends in the borrowers business and industry and whether changing

economic condition might affect business or loan.

3. Control:

Whether there are chances of change in government policy or law which adversely

affect borrowers business.

3.7. SECURITY OF LOAN:

There are three securities of loan


26


27/71

The most preferred is businesss income or cash flow from which the customer will pay the

loan

Second security consists of customers balance sheet his assets that can be liquidated for

adjust of loan and

Guarantees from owners or from a third party.

Collateral Security: Collateral Security serves two purposes for a lender. First, if the borrower

cannot pay, the collateral gives the lender the authority to seize or sell those properties to cover the

amount of loan default. Secondly, Collateral Security gives the lender a psychological advantage

over the borrower. Borrower on this situation feel more obligated and works hard to repay the loan to

avoid losing valuable assets.

3.8. TYPES OF LOAN:

Loans are the largest asset item, which generally account for half to almost three quarters of the total

value of all banks assets. A banks loan account typically is broken down into several groups of

similar type loans. The Loan and Advances made by the NCCBL can broadly be classified by

following categories-

29/71

Advance is granted to a client against financial obligations that is deposited in the bank. A client can

get up to 80% loan of the total deposited value. Loan repayment period is maximum 1 year. If client

can not repay the loan in this stated period then it is again renewed for 1 year more.

Interest rate is 14% to 16%.

Secured Overdraft (G)

This loan is granted against the work order of government departments, corporations autonomous

bodies and reputed multinational private organization. To arrive at logical decision, the clients

managerial capability, equity strength, nature of scheduled work is to be judged.Disbursement is

made after completion of documentation formalities, besides usual charge documents like a

notarized irrevocable power of attorney to collect the bills from the concerned authority and a letter

from the concerned authority confirming direct payment to the bank. The work is strictly monitored

to review the progress at each interval.

Interest rate is 14% to 16%. Only renowned clients get this loan.

Cash Credit (Hypothecation)

The mortgage of movable property for securing loan is called hypothecation. Hypothecation is a

legal transaction where goods are made available to the lending banker as security for a debt without

transferring or possession of the property. The banker has only equitable charge on stocks, which

practically means nothing. Since the goods always remain in the physical possession of the borrower,

there is much risk. So, it is granted to parties of undoubted means with highest integrity.

Interest rate is 16%. Loan repayment period is maximum 1 year.

Cash Credit (Pledge)In case of CC (pledge), the bank acquires the possession of the goods or a right to hold goods until

the repayment of credit. If loan is not repaid in due time then bank sells the goods to collect money.

burden on officers.

facility, an enterprise can get loan from setting up of the business to final production of goods or

services. NCCBL offers this facility only to big industries.

Loan against Imported Merchandise (LIM)

LIM is allowed for retirement of shipping documents and release of goods imported through L/C

taking. When the importer failed to pay the amount payable to the exporter against import L/C, than

NCCBL gives loan against imported merchandise to the importer. The importer will bear all the

expenses i.e. the warehouse charge, insurance fees, etc. and the ownership of the goods is retaining

with the bank. This is also a temporary advance connected with import, which is known as post

import finance.

to hypothecation of the proceeds of sale in discharge of the lien. Loans against Trust Receipt to the

clients are allowed when the documents covering an import shipment are given without payment.However, prior permission of Head Office must be obtained for such advances. The clients hold the

goods or their sales proceeds until the loan allowed against the Trust Receipt is fully paid off. This is

also a temporary investment connected with import and known as post-import finance and falls

under the category "Commercial Lending".

From the above chart it is shown that, bank has invests a greater amount in demand loan. Second

highest loan is given to term loan category. Sanction of SME loan has fallen in comparison of

financial year 2005. Because bank now focus on term loan and demand loan as these sector earns a

higher interest rate than SME loan. Also, default risk is low in these two categories.

3.9.GENERAL PROCEDURES of SANCTIONING LOAN:

Approval Process

The approval process reinforces the segregation of Relationship Management/Marketing (RM) from

the approving authority. The responsibility of preparing the credit application is rest on the

Relationship Management. Credit Applications are recommended for approval by the RM team and

forwarded to CRM for their review and assessment. The credit subsequently approved by proper

approval committee.

NCCBL has established various thresholds, above which, the recommendation of the Head of

business unit is required prior to onward recommendation to CRM and subsequent appropriate

authority for approval.

The procedure for all the business units is as shown in the next page:


36

ZCRO/HCRO supports & forwarded to Head of Business Units (HOBU) within their

delegated authority and to Head of Credit Risk (HOCR) for onward recommendation.

respective authority.

example, lending to Corporate and SMEs is mostly unstructured due to diverse nature of risk

exposure. On the other hand, consumer lending is mostly structured by standardizing the product and

risk aspects of individuals. As such applications for consumer lending may be done within the head

of consumer unit subject to delegation of authority to do so.

Lending ProcessThe main function of commercial bank is to take deposit and invest this fund. But in the process of

lending it has to safeguard the depositors money as well as business of the bank. Therefore proper

management supervision and follow-up is very important in the lending and recovery process.

NCCBL follows a three step process firmly to supervise and follow-up the lending and recovery

process.

Pre-sanction Stage

The very supervision of loans starts during pre-sanction stage. At this stage credit investigation is

very important as it involves selection of right and qualitative borrower. To select the borrower

NCCBL personnel at first interview the person to judge their capability to manage the finance or to

run the project effectively. The following steps are conducted to make sure that the loans areauthorized to the right persons.

Information collection

Credit information bureau of Bangladesh Bank


38


39/71

Declaration of the party with regard to liability with other banks, financial institutions.

Account performance, reputation, track record, repayment capacity through NCCBL internal

sources.

Feasibility study:Following aspect are mainly noticed by NCCBL

1. Management Aspect:

a. Managerial ability

b. Honesty and integrity

2. Technical Aspect:

a. Whether the technology is outdated or modern to handle by the firm

b. Cross-check of the pricing as stipulated in the pro-forma invoice.

c. Productivity of the proposed plant and machinery matching with the firms goal.3. Financial Aspect:

a. Operating performance and future earnings prospects.

b. Current financial condition.

c. Demand- supply gap keeping in view the other similar industries.

d. Net worth

e. Lending risk analysis.

Post-sanction/Pre-disbursement

Proper documentation and securitization is very important at this stage for safety of the credit facility

to be extended and enabling NCCBL to liquidate the loan liability in the event of the borrowers

default.

Proper documentation serves three basic purposes to NCCBL:

1. Borrowers unqualified assets of availing credit facility.2. Banks legal right created to securities offered as loan.

3. In case of default, the documents can be placed before court for a decree to realize the dues.

Direct and indirect securitization is also done in this stage.


39


40/71

Post disbursement stage:

At this stage NCCBL considered the following points:

The transaction in the loan account is being done satisfactorily.

Balance in the loan account remains within limit.

Fund disbursed has been used for the purpose the loan has been sanction for.

Stock reports are obtained and stocks are being inspected at a regular basis.

Stock and drawing power register and delivery order properly maintained.

Personal contact with the borrower at a regular basis.

Keen watch in irregularity of any form on the loan account.

Closely watch and supervise the financial and management position of the borrower.

Taking steps so that the loan does not turn time-barred.

Finally respective officer disburses the loan after sanction and completion of all formalities. The

officer writes cheque and provides it to the borrower. For this borrower has to open an account

thorough which he/she can withdraw the money.

3.10. LOAN RECOVERY PROCEDURES:

It is the duty of the Bank to recover the landed fund within the stipulated time and if the borrower

fails to repay the money within the said period Bank will declare him as a defaulter and recover the

fund by selling the securities given by the borrower or by freezing his account or make a suit against

him.

Strategies for recovery

Recovery of loan can be made in the following 3 methods.


40


41/71

1) Persuasive

2) Voluntarily

3) Legally

1) Persuasive recovery:

If the borrower didnt paid the due amount of loan in time then the first step of bank is private

communication with him. It creates a mental pressure on borrower to repay the loan amount. In this

case bank can provide some advice to the borrower for repaying the loan.

2) Voluntarily recovery:

In this method, some steps are followed for recovering loan. This are-

Building Task Force

Arranging seminar

Loan rescheduling policy

Waiver of interest rate

3) Legal recovery:

When all steps fails to keep an account regular and the borrower does not pay the installments and

interests then bank take necessary legal steps against the borrower for realization of its dues. In this

case Artha Rin Adalat Ain-2003 plays an important role for collecting the loan.

Recovery procedure of NCC Bank is the ultimate combination of time, effort of money. It follows

four procedural steps to recover the lending amount, which is joint effort of Bank, society and legal

institutions, which are shown below:


41


42/71

3.11. PRINCIPLES of SOUND LENDING:

A. Safety

NCC Bank exercises the lending function only when it is safe and the risk factor is adequatelymitigated and covered. Safety depends upon:

The security offered by the borrower.

The repaying capacity and willingness of the borrower is to repay the advance.

B. Liquidity

The liability of a Bank is repayable of demand or at a short notice. So the Bank has to maintain its

liquidity at a sufficient level. Investment on building, plant, machinery, land etc. cannot be recovered

quickly, so it is less liquid.

C. Profitability


42

Fig: Recovery Procedure


43/71

Profit is needed to pay interest to depositors, depreciation, and maintenance, declare dividend to

share holders, provide or reserve against bad and doubtful debts etc. so like all other Banks NCC

Bank also disburse advances to earn profit.

D. SecurityTo ensure safety of advances, Banks takes different types of securities like MTDR, Sanchaypatra,

land, work order etc. Banker should ensure that the securities are adequate, marketable and free from

encumbrances.

3.12. DIVERSIFICATION of RISKS:

It is very risky for a bank to invest all its assets into a particular sector or a single borrower or to one

particular region. If somehow the business of that sector or area or borrower collapses, the bank may

fall in a critical situation. So it is better to invest in different sectors/borrowers and spread over the

country. Thats why NCC Bank invests its fund in various sectors.

3.13. DISCOURAGED SECTORS of INVESTMENT:

Investment in following sectors is discouraged by NCC Bank.

Military equipment/Weapons Finance

Highly Leveraged transactions.

Finance of Speculative Investment.

Logging, Mineral Extraction/Mining, or other activity that is Ethically of Environmentally

Sensitive.

Lending to companies listed on CIB blacklist or known defaulters,

Counter parties in countries subject to UN sanctions.

Share Lending.

Taking an Equity Stake in borrowers.

Lending to Holding Companies.


43


44/71

Bridge Investments relying on equity/debt issuance as a source of repayment.

Tannery Finance.

HB- residential who has no other business with the Bank.

3.14. LOAN MONITORING:

Loan monitoring implies that the checking of the pattern of use of the disbursed fund to ensure

whether it is used for the right purpose or not. It includes a reporting system and communication

arrangement between the borrower and the lending institution. The following steps are followed by

respective officer.

Regular checking the balance of SB/CD/STD accounts of the borrower.

Regular communication with the defaulter customers and guarantors physically over

telephone.

Issuance of letter to customers immediately after dishonor of cheque.

Issuance of legal notice to the defaulter customers and guarantors prior to classification of the

loans.

Issuance of appreciation or greeting letter to the regular customers.

Periodical visit with the customers to maintain relationship and supervision of supplied

articles.

Legal action to be taken after failings all possible efforts to recover the banks due.

3.15. HANDLING of NON-PERFORMIG LOANS:

When a borrower cannot repay interest and/or installment on a loan after it has become due then it is

qualified as default loan or non-performing loan. It is known as non-performing because the loan

ceases to perform or generate income for the bank.


44


45/71

3.15.1. Implications

The very implication of non-performing loans are not only depriving of interest but also stoppage of

creating new loans for blockage of the fund and erosion of banks profitability, liquidity and

solvency, which might sometimes lead towards collapse of a bank. So, it is become essential for

policy makers of a bank to study the loan default scenario on a routine basis for estimating classified

loan, making appropriate provisioning, adopting effective recovery strategy and thus ensuring

soundness and efficiency of the bank.

3.15.2. Classification & provisioning of non-performing loans

Loan classification means giving each and every loan a status like unclassified, sub-standard,

doubtful or bad/loss through verification of borrowers repayment performance while provisioning

means setting aside funds from the profit against possible loan losses. This is essential for determine

the financial health and efficiency of a bank.

In order to get rid of default loans, Bangladesh Bank introduced a circular (BCD circular no. 34) on

1989 for classification & provision of loan thereof. The circular states the banks themselves will

carry out the classifications of their loans at least once in a year on the basis of the position existing

on December 31 in accordance with the guidelines given in the circular. In 1994, Bangladesh Bank

revised policy on classification and provisioning on quarterly basis.

The rules for classification and to maintain provisions as per overdue criteria are shown in the table

shown in next page:

56/71

4.2. FINDINGS:

During my internship period I had worked mainly in Loan and Advances Section as well as in

General Banking Section in NCCBL, Shyamoli Branch. Throughout this three months the major

findings of the study are:

The risk is concentrated in loan products as the total loan outstanding is highly dominated by

a few products.

Small range of loan products offered by NCCBL, Shyamoli Branch is another problem in

diversifying its loan risk. In most of the cases loan disbursement is centrally controlled from the Head Office,

sometimes which creates problem in choosing the right client for the bank.

Before sanctioning loan some times CIB report is not obtained from Bangladesh Bank.

Foreign Exchange related loan or LC loans are not transacted in this branch.

The credit proposal evaluation process is lengthy. Therefore sometimes valuable clients are

lost.

Monitoring of loan is not sufficient Branches of NCC Bank are not sufficient to compared with other private banks.

Innovation of new financial products is a rare case in NCC Bank rather they hardly upgrade

their offerings on the basis on some changes in interest rate and maturity.

The website does not contain information about loan and other sections.

57

RECOMMENDATIONS &


58/71

5.1. RECOMMENDATIONS:

On the basis of the findings the following recommendations are made for the NCCBL, Shyamoli

Branch:

At first NCCBL should find out the way to reduce its bad loan amount further as improve its

loan quality.

NCCBL should increase their loan products to compete in the market.

The loan policy and loan sanction procedure should be made flexible and easy.

NCCBL can give attention to the foreign exchange and remittance services to maximize

profit.

NCC Bank could give more attention to advertisement and promotion of products, which is

helpful to collect more deposits and increase investments scope. Bank could use various

media for advertisement like TV, News Paper, Internet and Billboard.

Strict supervision must be adopted in case of high-risk borrowers. Time to time visit to the

projects should be done by the bank officers.

NCCBL should introduce more ATM booth instead of manual banking system. It will save

huge amount of establishment and other cost.

The website of the bank should be more informative that customers get the all information

about the different activities and facilities of the bank.


58


59/71

5.2. CONCLUSION:

Banks always contribute towards the economic development of a country. Compared with other

Banks NCC Bank is also playing leading role in socio-economic development of the country. The

bank is currently doing average. By analyzing its performance it is observed that a potential growthmight be accelerated through effective implications of some policy. Being an old generation bank it

has an advantage compared to newly established bank in the form of wide range of activities.

However policy implication needs to be as fast as possible to grab the early mover advantage.

The bank through years has been able to spread operation in mass banking rather than concentrating

in niches. It can hedge poor performance of one sector by some other sector for its wide range of

offering. Capital market operation has become a great potential for the bank to increase its

profitability. NCC bank brokerage house is concentrating to establish new work stations in order to

facilitate investor of remote places.

The bank has been able to create a multi component loan portfolio. However non performing loan

are a real challenge to the sound credit management. Default is increasing for lack of monitoring.

The bank is trying to increase its loan quality by accelerating its recovery policy. The bank can

concentrate on the loan sector where default risk is low and its investments are profitable. The loan

procedure has been made more calculative, logical to keep the credit sound.
