NPA Rise in Retail Segment Haunts Domestic Banking Industry
The issue of non-performing assets (NPAs) in the fast expanding retail segment has started haunting the the domestic banking industry. The recent phenomena like high real estate prices, the rising interest rates and falling Sensex where a great deal of funds out of personal loans have been invested will impact the sticky assets in the retail segments, said a chief of public sector bank.. For a quality asset player like HDFC Bank though ratio of gross non-performing assets (NPAs) to total customer assets was 1.17 % in 2005-06 as against 1.47% as of March 31 2005, there has been an increase in NPAs in absolute terms during the year. Increases in NPAs during the year were primarily related to the deliquencies in various loan products, said the bank's annual report for 2005-06. However, these deliquencies and NPAs were within the expected levels for each of the retail assets products given the seasoning of the retail portfolio. The net non-performing assets (gross non-performing less specific loan loss provisions , interest in suspense and ECGC claims received) were 0.44% of the net advances and 0.36 % of customer assets as of March 31 2006 as against 0,24 % and 0.20 %, respectively as of March 31, 2005 reflecting the higher proportion of retail loans in the bank's loan book and changing mix of retail loan portfolio. Also according Prakash P Mallya, chairman & managing director, Vijaya Bank the frauds have taken place mainly in the housing loan segment. Thoogh it has not reached alarming proportions but the level of non performing assets (NPAs) in the housing loan space was going up year after year. "That is the reason why RBI also in its last credit policy have asked us to increase the risk weight to assets. That is also the reason the rates (in housing loan) have also gone up,'' he said. The banks normally ask their legal departments to give legal opinion on a particular property, on which they are going to give housing loan. "We advance money based on their opinion.

    HBS Case Study

    To begin analysing whether Newbridge investment into Shenzhen Development Bank (SDB) is appropriate, their performance should be examined first. Firstly, the quality of assets which SDB has invested in should be taken into consideration. Exhibit 10 highlights SDB’s Non-performing loans (NPL) ratio of 11.6% is higher compared to other industry peers with the exception of Bocom with 16.7%. Overall, SDB has a higher NPL ratio than the average of its industry peers at 7.3%. This indicates that a higher proportion of SDB’s assets are of lower quality, given the higher credit risk for those loans. It should be noted SDB’s NPL ratio may even be higher because of them likely reporting a low NPL number. This is because these are book values, and hence the values are subject to the bank’s discretion, in which they are less likely to recognise any negative aspects of their bank to continue investor confidence.…

    Adverse Effects of Npa on the Working of Commercial Banks

    Between 01.04.93 to 31.03.2001Commercial banks incurred a total amount of Rs.31251 Crores towards provisioning NPA. This has brought Net NPA to Rs.32632 Crores or 6.2% of net advances. To this extent the problem is contained, but at what cost? This costly remedy is made at the sacrifice of building healthy reserves for future capital adequacy. The enormous provisioning of NPA together with the holding cost of such non-productive assets over the years has acted as a severe drain on the profitability of the PSBs. In turn PSBs are seen as poor performers and unable to approach the market for raising additional capital. Equity issues of nationalised banks that have already tapped the market are now quoted at a discount in the secondary market. Other banks hesitate to approach the market to raise new issues. This has alternatively forced PSBs to borrow heavily from the debt market to build Tier II Capital to meet capital adequacy norms putting severe pressure on their profit margin, else they are to seek the bounty of the Central Government for repeated Recapitalisation.…

We estimate the market to have crossed Rs550bn by end-FY11 as specialized NBFCs Muthoot Finance and Manappuram combine have grown their book by Rs130bn+ during the year. Share of the organized pie has been increasing rapidly due to significantly lower rate of interest charged, higher LTV offered and perceived safety of the ornaments.

    Techniques to Eliminate Non-Performing Assets through Securitization

    The Securitisation Act has been enacted mainly for tackling the growing menace non-performing assets by securitisation of assets by sale to ARC, which is to issue of security receipts to the investor and for enforcement of security interest by banks and financial institutions.

    Survey on Gold Market in India

    Gold has long been a valued commodity, particularly in India where it is considered auspicious, and has been in use for centuries in the form of jewelry, coins and other assets. Though gold is a highly liquid asset, it wasn’t until recently that consumers leveraged it effectively to meet their liquidity needs. Lenders provide loans by securing gold assets as collateral. Compared with the rest of the world, in India the gold loan market is big business. Until a decade back, most of the lending was in the unorganized sector through pawnbrokers and money lenders. However, this scenario changed with the entrance of organized sector players such as banks and non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) which now command more than 25% of the market. The organized gold loan market has grown at 40% CAGR from 2002 to 2010. NBFCs have been a major driving force behind this growth given their extensive network, faster turnaround time, higher loan-to-value ratios and the ability to serve non-bankable customers. Of late, banks have improved their gold loan product features and services. Coupled with comparatively lower interest rates and charges, banks stand to gain market share at the expense of NBFCs in the near future. With rapid growth, regulatory scrutiny has increased on gold loan lending practices. NBFCs are under greater focus as a result of their higher interest rates and charges, and non-adherence to know your customer (KYC) regulations. This may further impact the dominance of NBFCs in the gold loan market. At just 1.2% of the total gold stock in the country at present, gold loans have a huge growth potential. However, firms need to develop distribution, product and risk mitigation strategies to get a share of the pie in a profitable and sustainable fashion.…
