CHAPTER NO.1 INTRODUCTION TO SUBJECT
“CREDIT ANALYSIS AND INVESTMENT BANKING”
1.1 Overview of Credit Analysis and Investment Banking:-
The process of credit analysis may be explained as a procedure, which is carried out in
order to find out the capacity of an issuer to provide some credit to the debtor. This
process is applicable to individual borrowers as well as the issuers of securities.
Introduction Credit analysis focuses at determining credit risk for various financial and nonfinancial
instruments as well as projects. Credit risk analysis can be separated into two steps.
The first part consists of analyzing the credit risk of a particular asset. The second part
analyses the risk of the whole portfolio which comprises the individual credit sensitive
entities. And it is true that the measurement and management of Credit risk has become
a key risk-management issue for both financial and non-financial institutions. With the
improved liquidity in credit derivative market and advances in modeling, the accurate
measurement and management of credit risk to achieve the desired exposure is not as
difficult as before.
Definition
• The process of evaluating an applicant's loan request or a corporation's debt
issue in order to determine the likelihood that the borrower will live up to his/her
obligations.
• Credit analysis is the method by which one calculates the credit worthiness of a
business or organization. The audited financial statements of a large company
might be analyzed when it issues or has issued bond or a bank may analyze the
8 | P a g e
financial statements of a small business before advancing or renewing a
commercial loan.
Credit analysis involves a wide variety of financial analysis techniques, including
ratio and trend analysis as well as the creation of projections and a detailed analysis of
cash flows. Credit analysis also includes an examination of collateral and other sources
of repayment as well as credit history and management ability.
Before approving a commercial loan, a bank will look at all of these factors with the
primary emphasis being the cash flow of the borrower. A typical measurement of
repayment ability is the debt service coverage ratio. A credit analyst at a bank will
measure the cash generated by a business (before interest expense and excluding
depreciation and any other non-cash or extraordinary expenses).
.What Does Credit Analysis Mean?
A type of analysis an investor or bond portfolio manager performs on companies or
other debt issuing entities about the entity's ability to meet its debt obligations. The
credit analysis seeks to identify the suitable level of default risk associated with
investing in that particular entity.
Why Credit Score Analysis is Important?
Credit score is the basis of sanction of loan by a lender and therefore credit
scores analysis is very important for the borrower to know where exactly he or she
stands. Credit score basically is the formula that the lenders use to calculate the risk
factor while sanctioning loans for the prospective borrower. That objective is
accomplished by lenders through credit score analysis relating to the prospective
borrower. At the same time such credit score analysis is important for the prospective
borrower to know exactly where he or she stands in the expectancy for the sanction of
loan.
Factors in Credit Score Analysis
Major factors that are taken into account in the credit score analysis are –
§ Payment history of the prospective borrower.
§ Current outstanding debt of the client.
§ Length of the credit history.
9 | P a g e
§ Sources for regular flow of income.
1.2 Importance of Credit Analysis of Individual Borrowers
In case of the individual borrowers the system of credit analysis is used in order to
measure the economic capability. This is done in the context of repayment of debt. The
system tries to find out if the borrower would be able to pay his debts at the proper time.
With the help of credit analysis the lenders can also find out if the debtor would at all be
able to pay back the debt.
1.3 Use of Credit Analysis of Corporate Entities
The system of credit analysis is also applicable for reviewing the financial capacities of
a certain issuer who is dealing in debt instruments. This process is thus extremely
crucial for those who put their money in these debt instruments.
In Credit Analysis we discussed deeply about the Balance Sheet. Because on that
bases bank decide that firm have long term debt paying ability or not. There are few
mainly items are mentioned below;
• Fixed assets
• Current assets
• Stock
• Current ratio
• Long term liability
• Called up share / Treasury Stock
• Share Premium
• Revaluation Reserve
• P / L figure C – P/L
• Share holder Equity
1.4 Investment banking
Investment banking is a field of banking that aids companies in acquiring funds.
Investment banks create securities, including stocks and bonds, for themselves and
10 | P a g e
other companies, and facilitate the trade in them. They also help companies manage
mergers and acquisitions.
Through investment banking, an institution generates funds in two different ways. They
may draw on public funds through the capital market by selling stock in their company,
and they may also seek out venture capital or private equity in exchange for a stake in
their company.
Functions of Investment Bank:
Unlike commercial banks and savings and loans, investment banks do not seek cash
deposits from customers in the form of checking and savings accounts, and they do not
make traditional interest-bearing loans to individual customers. Investment banks
instead make their money primarily
• By advising corporate clients on the creation of stocks, bonds and other
securities
• By underwriting securities
• By facilitating mergers and acquisitions, along with any due diligence and
securities exchanges that may go along with them.
• And by brokering (or selling) securities to investors.
Investment bankers have also created a broad array of investment options to go along
with traditional stocks and bonds, including securities derivatives such as call and put
options, which allow investors to lock in a buy or sell price on an investment at a future
date, and credit default swaps, which insure bond buyers against the risk that a bond
seller will renege on the debt. Investment banks also lend stocks to facilitate short
trades, in which speculators borrow stock and sell it in hopes that its price will decline
before they buy it and return it to the lender.
An investment banking firm also does a large amount of consulting. Investment bankers
give companies advice on mergers and acquisitions, for example. They also track the
market in order to give advice on when to make public offerings and how best to
manage the business' public assets. Some of the consultative activities investment
11 | P a g e
banking firms engage in overlap with those of a private brokerage, as they will often
give buy-and-sell advice to the companies they represent.
Investment banks provide a numerous finance-related services, including underwriting,
raising capital for companies by issuing equity or debt securities
and facilitating mergers. When raising capital for a firm, an investment bank is acting as
an intermediary between investors and the issuer. Capital raised can come from private
investors (who often have a high net worth), or from pools of capital obtained within the
public markets. Capital obtained from public markets is normally through an initial public
offering (IPO); however, special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) are another
alternative.
Role of Investment Banks in Economy:
The primary role of investment banking in the economy has traditionally been to help
businesses raise capital for their operations by selling investment securities to the
general public.
Through innovations of financial instruments and advisory to clients like corporate firms
and government, which are main vehicles in growth of an economy, investment banks
assist these clients to raise funds.
One of the main functions of the money and capital markets is to allocate efficiently the
flow of funds from savings surplus economic units to savings deficit units. The efficiency
of capital market is instrumental in the channeling of savings to investment opportunities
and in the growth and development of a viable economy. Substantial amounts of funds
are raised by business firms and the Government through the issue of new securities.
The major institutions acting as intermediaries between firm seeking external funds in
capital markets and the investment public are investment houses. The investment
banker assists the issuing firm in designing and timing securities offerings, formulates
plans for raising funds through the capital markets and provide the distributing
organization. One of the fundamental economic functions of the investment banker is to
underwrite the risk of fluctuations in the market price of the securities being issued,
during the time of offering.

CHAPTER NO.2
“INTRODUCTION TO THE BANK”
2.1 Banking History:- Consensus on the origination of word “Bank” is not yet reached at. Some authors
opinion is that this word is derived from the words “Bancus” or “Banque”, which mean a
bench and they further relate banking business inception to Jews in Lombardy. Other
authorities state that the word “Bank” is derived form the German word “Back” which
means “Joint Stock fund” and later on due to German occupation of Italy, this word was
italianated into “Bank. Authors quote

17 | P a g e
Importance In the past decade, regulators have been gaining familiarity and experiences in the
monitoring of banks and other financial institution in terms of solvency and capital
adequacy. Some of the perverse effects of the Basle accord have been widely
documented. With the arrival of the new Basle II accord around 2005 and other
improvement in accounting, it is important for financial institutions to develop internal
models to demonstrate the capability of risk management, including demonstrating the
effectiveness of hedging which can result in freeing up of regulatory capital. Given the
improvement in the regulatory regime, sound credit analysis, rather optimization
according to arcane rules, are more relevant for the future. During 2001 and 2002, there
have been very high profile cases of default, such as Enron and WorldCom with very
large amount of outstanding debt. Some financial institutions have been caught
unguarded with large amount of exposure. During the late 90’s, banks have been
pressured to lend money to gain business in other areas such as merger and
acquisitions, resulting in large exposure of idiosyncratic credit risk to particular
companies. The current prevalent practice of marking loans at par value regardless of
the counter party’s credit risk poses significant problems in proper risk management.
Therefore the correct credit analysis and accurate measurement of the amount of credit
risk involved is very important in determining whether the extra benefit from other
business can compensate. With the increasing usage of largely unfunded derivative
transactions, such as swaps, it is increasing important to assess the counter party risk,
as well as the correlation between market risk and credit risk, as the collapse of the
trading company Enron readily demonstrated

CHAPTER NO.4
“CREDIT POLICY AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION” Credit Policy: Credits operations are undertaken in accordance to bank’s credit policy. The policy
strictly prohibits violation of SBP/Local central bank’s rules and suggests financing of
self liquidating, cash flow supported and well collateralized transactions, which equate
the principle of lending (safety, liquidity, dispersal, remunerations and suitability).
Procedure for Financing from UBL When a party comes for financing, banker will ask the following questions.
3.3.2.1 Purpose: In this the party mentions the purpose; they want to apply for the finances. No lending is done
without purpose.
3.3.2.2 Business The party must have some specific running business i.e. general merchandise,
construction business etc.
The second question arises of the cash flow that how much flow is generated by the
party from the current business.
3.3.2.3 Security: The bank will secure itself against the lending. There can be two type of security.
Ø Commercial
Ø Residential
The bank prefers commercial security. Relationship Manager (RM) is mainly
responsible for the relationship between the bank and party. He acts like a bridge
between the two.
In the first instance the party would prepare the following property documents.
Ø AKS Shajarah
Ø Naqsha Tasveeri
Ø Approved Building Plan
Ø Tresh fard
31 | P a g e
Ø Intaqal Naqal
The party is asked to contact any valuator on the panel of UBL. ICM&L and Tajak Builder are on
the panel of UBL. The valuator will visit the site and set market value and FSV of the said
property. He prepares report of at least three pages. These documents sent for one page legal
opinion to any layer on the panel of UBL. Having clear legal opinion RM start preparing credit
Approval (CA). The documents are signed by the RM & AM and then forwarded to UBL RHQ in
Peshawar. Here SRM examines the CA if he found some exception he will send it back to the
respective Rm.
RM rectifies the acceptation and sends it back to SRM. SRM studied and pass it to credit officer.
He has three hours of time to study the CA and if found correct then he pass it to another credit
officer. After his examination the CA is passed on to the credit risk manager. He checks the CA
and after signing it sent to CAD. He forwards the CA to SCO. Whose office is at UBL RUCO at
Lahore, after his signature the C.A is sent back to RCAD.
RCAD make a check less list and asked the RM to contact the party to complete the said
documents they are.
Ø Letter of continuity
Ø Personal Guarantee
Ø Letter of hypothecation of stock
Ø D.P Note
Ø Mortgage Deed
Ø NIC of executants and witness
Ø Stock report
Ø Insurance policy
Ø Party profile
After completion of charge document RM send it to RCAD when they found it correct, they
issues DAC. A copy of DAC is sent to RM and NICF account is opened and debit transaction
starts.

CHAPTER NO.5
“CREDIT PRINCIPLES AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS” This section outlines the basic principles that UBL will pursue for extending credit
facilities. These principles will serve as useful guidelines and precautionary measures
for prudent lending.
a) UBL will not extend any such credit facilities, which violate the rules and
regulations prescribed by the State Bank of Pakistan and/or local Central Banks
from time to time.
b) UBL will consider financing of self-liquidating, cash flow supported and well
collateralized transactions within a Business Group’s target market and risk
acceptance criteria.
c) UBL will participate in syndicated facilities if the transaction fulfils the parameters
established by the Bank.
d) UBL will, prior to allowing the facilities, satisfy itself that these are adequately
secured with relevant and legally enforceable documents.
e) UBL will ensure that facilities allowed are well aligned to customers' business
structure and specific needs.
f) UBL will assess the customer’s character for integrity and willingness to repay by
studying the background and credit history of the customer to establish
commitment to repay.
g) Facilities provided by UBL will be well diversified into such industrial/trading
sectors where UBL has the necessary skills and resources to achieve a strong
market position and adequate return on capital.
h) UBL shall only lend up to the amount that the customer has capacity and ability
to repay. Customer's liquidity and repayment capacity will be determined by
34 | P a g e
careful analysis of financial statements and future projections to ensure that
customer’s financial condition remains satisfactorily liquid to repay the bank.
i) It is against UBL’s policy to provide financing for speculative purposes and/or
undesirable activities. For Islamic Banking business, Shariah compliant business
activities shall be financed based on evaluation on Islamic Financial Accounting
Standards.
j) UBL shall not allow any credit facility to clients, who have been allowed
waivers/write offs in UBL. Any exception to this will need approval of the highest
level of Credit Committee including the Group Executive Risk & Credit Policy.
k) UBL shall maintain adequate margin against credit facilities, in accordance with
State Bank of Pakistan’s Prudential Regulations and/or local Central Banks’
instructions. If deemed necessary, the appropriate business unit / credit authority
may specify a higher margin.
l) UBL shall continue to invest in development of officers dealing with credit related
matters, to ensure maximum output and utmost participation of individuals
involved with credit risk management and the credit process.
m) Documents included as annexures of this manual will require regular updates
and modification as per the requirements and needs of the businesses and
changing market dynamics. The Group Executive Risk & Credit Policy will
approve any and all updates and modifications in such documents. Any major
structural changes and/or modifications will require ratification by the Board
Credit Committee / Board of Directors as well as clearance by the State Bank of
Pakistan.
n) Any addition/amendment/deletion/deviation in this manual to meet changing
conditions and/or regulatory/legal requirements of any domestic or overseas
location will be approved by the Group Executive Risk & Credit Policy. However,
if any such change weakens any provision in this manual, the same shall require
35 | P a g e
ratification by the Board Credit Committee / Board of Directors as well as
clearance by the State Bank of Pakistan.
o) This Manual represents policies and procedures introduced to streamline and
consolidate all rules applicable to credit process globally. However, management
reserves the right to formulate auxiliary Credit Policies for any domestic or
overseas location within parameters laid down in this Manual.
5.1 The 5 C’s of Credit It's one of the most common questions among small business owners
seeking financing: "What will the bank be looking for from me and my business?" While
each lending situation is unique, many banks utilize some variation of evaluating the five
C's of credit when making credit decisions: character, capacity, capital, conditions and
collateral. We'll take a look at each of these ingredients and how they may impact your
funding request. Review each category and see how you stack up.
5.1.1 Character
What is the character of the management of the company? What is
management's reputation in the industry and the community? Investors want to put their
money with those who have impeccable credentials and references. The way you treat
your employees and customers, the way you take responsibility, your timeliness in
fulfilling your obligations — these are all part of the character question.
This is really about you and your personal leadership. How you lead yourself and
conduct both your business and personal life gives the lender a clue about how you
are likely to handle leadership as a CEO. It's a banker's responsibility to look at the
downside of making a loan. Your character immediately comes into play if there is a
business crisis, for example. As small business owners, we place our personal stamp
on everything that affects our companies. Often, banks do not even differentiate
between us and our businesses. This is one of the reasons why the credit scoring
process evolved, with a large component being our personal credit history.
5.1.2 Capacity
36 | P a g e
What is your company's borrowing history and track record of repayment?
How much debt can your company handle? Will you be able to honor the obligation and
repay the debt? There are numerous financial benchmarks, such as debt and liquidity
ratios, that investors evaluate before advancing funds. Become familiar with the
expected pattern in your industry. Some industries can take a higher debt load; others
may operate with less liquidity.
5.1.3 Capital
How well-capitalized is your company? How much money have you invested
in the business? Investors often want to see that you have a financial commitment and
that you have put yourself at risk in the company. Both your company's financial
statements and your personal credit are keys to the capital question. If the company is
operating with a negative net worth, for example, will you be prepared to add more of
your own money? How far will your personal resources support both you and the
business as it is growing? If the company has not yet made profits, this may be offset by
an excellent customer list and payment history. All of these issues intertwine, and you
want to ensure that the bank perceives the business as solid.
5.1.4 Conditions
What are the current economic conditions and how does your company fit
in? If your business is sensitive to economic downturns, for example, the bank wants a
comfort level that you're managing productivity and expenses. What are the trends for
your industry, and how does your company fit within them? Are there any economic or
political hot potatoes that could negatively impact the growth of your business?
5.1.5 Collateral
While cash flow will nearly always be the primary source of repayment of a
loan, bankers look at what they call the secondary source of repayment. Collateral
represents assets that the company pledges as an alternate repayment source for the
loan. Most collateral is in the form of hard assets, such as real estate and office or
37 | P a g e
manufacturing equipment. Alternatively, your accounts receivable and inventory can be
pledged as collateral.
The collateral issue is a bigger challenge for service businesses, as they have fewer
hard assets to pledge. Until your business is proven, you're nearly always going to
pledge collateral. If it doesn't come from your business, the bank will look to your
personal assets. This clearly has its risks — you don't want to be in a situation where
you can lose your house because a business loan has turned sour. If you want to be
borrowing from banks or other lenders, you need to think long and hard about how you'll
handle this collateral question.
Keep in mind that in evaluating the five C's of credit, investors don't give equal weight to
each area. Lenders are cautious, and one weak area could offset all the other strengths
you show. For example, if your industry is sensitive to economic swings, your company
may have difficulty getting a loan during an economic downturn — even if all other
factors are strong. And if you're not perceived as a person of character and integrity,
there's little likelihood you'll receive a loan, no matter how good your financial
statements may be. As you can see, lenders evaluate your company as a total package,
which is often more than the sum of the parts. The biggest element, however, will
always be you.

5.2 SWOT Analysis:-
5.2.1 A strength could be:
• Your specialist marketing expertise.
• A new, innovative product or service.
• Location of your business.
• Quality processes and procedures.
• Any other aspect of your business that adds value to your product or service.
39 | P a g e
5.2.2 A weakness could be:
• Lack of marketing expertise.
• Undifferentiated products or services (i.e. in relation to your competitors).
• Location of your business.
• Poor quality goods or services.
• Damaged reputation.
5.2.3 An opportunity could be:
• A developing market such as the Internet.
• Mergers, joint ventures or strategic alliances.
• Moving into new market segments that offer improved profits.
• A new international market.
• A market vacated by an ineffective competitor
5.2.4 A threat could be:
• A new competitor in your home market.
• Price wars with competitors.
• A competitor has a new, innovative product or service.
• Competitors have superior access to channels of distribution.
• Taxation is introduced on your product or service.
40 | P a g e
5.3 PEST Analysis:
5.3.1 Political Factors
The political arena has a huge influence upon the regulation of businesses, and the
spending power of consumers and other businesses. You must consider issues such
as:
1. How stable is the political environment?
2. Will government policy influence laws that regulate or tax your business?
3. What is the government's position on marketing ethics?
4. What is the government's policy on the economy?
5. Does the government have a view on culture and religion?
6. Is the government involved in trading agreements such as EU, NAFTA, ASEAN, or
others?
41 | P a g e
5.3.2 Economic Factors
Marketers need to consider the state of a trading economy in the short and long-terms.
This is especially true when planning for international marketing. You need to look at:
1. Interest rates.
2. The level of inflation Employment level per capita.
3. Long-term prospects for the economy Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita, and
so on.
5.3.3 Sociocultural Factors
The social and cultural influences on business vary from country to country. It is very
important that such factors are considered. Factors include:
1. What is the dominant religion?
2. What are attitudes to foreign products and services?
3. Does language impact upon the diffusion of products onto markets?
4. How much time do consumers have for leisure?
5. What are the roles of men and women within society?
6. How long are the population living? Are the older generations wealthy?
7. Do the population have a strong/weak opinion on green issues?
5.3.4 Technological Factors
Technology is vital for competitive advantage, and is a major driver of globalization.
Consider the following points:
42 | P a g e
1. Does technology allow for products and services to be made more cheaply and to a
better standard of quality?
2. Do the technologies offer consumers and businesses more innovative products and
services such as Internet banking, new generation mobile telephones, etc?
3. How is distribution changed by new technologies e.g. books via the Internet, flight
tickets, auctions, etc?
4. Does technology offer companies a new way to communicate with consumers e.g.
banners, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), etc?
43 | P a g e
5.4 Porter’s Five Force Analysis:
Five force analysis helps the marketer to contrast a competitive environment.It has similarities with other tools for environmental audit,Such as PEST analysis,but tends to focus on the single,stand alone,business or SBU (Strategic Business Unit) rather than a single product or range of products.For example,DELL would analyse the market for business computers i.e one of its SBUs.
Five forces analysis looks at five key areas namely the threat of entry, the power of
buyers, the power of suppliers, the threat of substitutes, and competitive rivalry.
5.4.1 The threat of entry.
• Economies of scale e.g. the benefits associated with bulk purchasing.
• The high or low costs of entry e.g. how much will it cost for the latest technology?
• Ease of access to distribution channels e.g. Do our competitors have the
distribution channels sewn up?
44 | P a g e
• Cost advantages not related to the size of the company e.g. personal contacts or
knowledge that larger companies do not own or learning curve effects.
• Will competitors retaliate?
• Government action e.g. will new laws be introduced that will weaken our
competitive position?
• How important is differentiation? e.g. The Champagne brand cannot be copied.
This desensitizes the influence of the environment.
• This is high where there a few, large players in a market e.g. the large grocery
chains.
• If there are a large number of undifferentiated, small suppliers e.g. small farming
businesses supplying the large grocery chains.
• The cost of switching between suppliers is low e.g. from one fleet supplier of
trucks to another.
5.4.2 The power of suppliers.
The power of suppliers tends to be a reversal of the power of buyers.
• Where the switching costs are high e.g. Switching from one software supplier to
another.
• Power is high where the brand is powerful e.g. Cadillac, Pizza Hut, Microsoft.
• There is a possibility of the supplier integrating forward e.g. Brewers buying bars.
• Customers are fragmented (not in clusters) so that they have little bargaining
power e.g. Gas/Petrol stations in remote places.
5.4.3 The threat of substitutes
• Where there is product-for-product substitution e.g. email for fax Where there is
substitution of need e.g. better toothpaste reduces the need for dentists.
• Where there is generic substitution (competing for the currency in your pocket)
e.g. Video suppliers compete with travel companies.
• We could always do without e.g. cigarettes.
45 | P a g e
5.4.4 Competitive Rivalry
• This is most likely to be high where entry is likely; there is the threat of substitute
products, and suppliers and buyers in the market attempt to control. This is why it
is always seen in the center of the diagram.
5.5 Macro-economic risk areas In considering a structured approach to credit, the process requires a categorization of
each risk element. It should be noted that there exists considerable overlap and
interrelationship between these elements. The aspects considered in this section have
substantial interconnections and interrelationships with each having an effect upon
another
46 | P a g e
5.6 Micro-economic risk areas:
One of the most fundamental non-financial aspects crucial for the long term success of
a business is its strategy and plans. Corporate strategy is developed by management
and will reflect their judgment using their skills, expertise, experience and
entrepreneurial flair. At the strategic level they will establish the fundamentals of the
business and the basic direction for the future. At the business plan level they will
address the practical implementation of the strategic decisions.

CHAPTER NO.6
Differences and Similarities in theoretical and practical approach We visited United Bank Limited (UBL) and conducted meeting with CAD Manager and
other concerned persons and found following that UBL follow most of the credit principal
that we have studied during our course. The difference and similarities are as under
(1) The Prudential regulations (PRs) of state bank of Pakistan are strictly
followed and in case of any violation of these regulation SBP impose the
penalties or issue different warning to banks
(2) The documents needed for advancing loan must be duly approved by
concerned authorities.
(3) The character of the borrower is evaluated by different out sourcing firm
and Electronic Credit Information Bureau (ECIB) report.
(4) The usual principal of lending like 5 C,S of credit, financial analysis of the
borrower is done by the bank RM department of UBL
(5) The SWOT analysis of the borrower is done by the borrower himself and
some outsource agencies employed by the bank also conduct SWOT
analysis for the banks.UBL has contract with the risk consulting firm ICIL.
This firm provides UBL all the information about the character, SWOT
analysis etc. of the borrower. The bank gives due weight age to this
analysis report.
(6) The pest analysis is also taken into consideration when it is applicable.
(7) The loan collection procedure as we have studied is followed almost in the
same order i.e.
• Recovery letter
• Telephone call
• Personal visit
50 | P a g e
• The collection agencies (in case of car financing only)
• Legal action
UBL try to solve the problems up to first three steps because last two steps involve legal
actions which prolong to some period and also hurt the reputation of the banks.
(8) For rescheduling of loan 90 days as grace period allowed to borrower.
(9) For restructuring bank decrease the mark up rate and also increase the
installment period.
(10) When we ask about the borrower risk assessment the manager
have not enough knowledge about Michael porters risk assessment model
and Porter five competitive forces. They use traditional method to assess
the borrower risk.
(11) The financial statements are accepted as it is provided by the
borrower. The only thing important is the statements should be audited by
some approved charted accountant firms. Because audited financial
statement of the borrower is only requirement by SBP. The bank loan
processing officers has no concern with window dressing or any other fake
information showed in the financial statement.
(12) As for securities against loan is concern the security is critical
analyze it should have sufficient market value, liquidity, and not perishable
in nature.
(13) The security against the loan is valued according to the Forced
Sale Value (FSV). the Forced Sale Value(FSV) of the securities depend
on the type of security and its value. the UBL usually value security on
following ways
• Land =15%
• Building =20%
51 | P a g e
• Machinery=25%
(14) The industry condition of the borrower also given due
consideration.
(15) The economic condition of the country has also impact on credit
policies of banks; unfavorable economic condition leads to strict credit
policy and vice versa.
52 | P a g e
CHAPTER NO.7
“Conclusion and Recommendation” 7.1 Conclusion The study is mainly focused on the credit policies and the tools used for credit risk
analysis. Present study is done on one of the leading bank of Pakistan UBL. We
critically examined and analyze documents procedures, rules and regulations regarding
financing decision of banks. We elaborate different tools and techniques used by UBL
management and to assess borrower risk. We also elaborate different aspect of UBL
credit policy. UBL human resources are highly qualified and have update knowledge
about present developments in the areas of credit risk analysis. Still there are some
minute difference in practical approaches and techniques used by the bank for risk
assessment. The reason is behind these differences are traditional method of risk
assessment, unqualified borrower, and unavailability of sufficient documents and less
use of credit rated agencies.
The present study also enables us to get familiar with financing decision process and
evaluation of borrower risk.
7.2 Recommendations
Although UBL have wonderful credit policies but still there is room for a lot of
improvement and innovations.
Following are some of the suggestions and recommendations that I want to make:
Ø A regular contact with the customers should be maintained in personally.
Because there is an era of retaining the customers. So I recommend that there
should be CRM to get feedback from customers.
53 | P a g e
Ø A proper timeline in cas disbursement should be defined which is usually
comprised due to lengthy processing and documentation requirements.
Ø Relationship managers should be fully trained and need to be fully equipped with
requisite knowledge and skills.
Ø A proper infrastructure should be defined for carrying out computerized financial
analysis of borrower’s business.
Ø Heavy collaterals requirements should be avoided to serve large pool of
borrowers. Heavy collaterals requirements restrict credit business of the bank.
Ø The credit proposal and other documents at times should be properly and
sufficiently prepared before taking approval.
Ø Filing and record maintenance of credit related documents should be done
efficiently.
Ø There is no facility for students to get mark free loan in this bank. So, this bank
should provide free of mark up or easy terms and conditions loan to students and
deserving persons on merit. I hope this scheme will be successful in producing
intelligent, intellectual and brilliant students.
