1.1 Introduction
Banking system in Bangladesh has evolved from the British banking in undivided India. Banking as
such, however, was not unknown to this part of undivided India, and then called East Bengal.
Indigenous banking in Bangladesh is as old as banking in other parts of the world. Money used to be
accepted on deposit and advances used to be given. During Mughal period, indigenous banking
flourished. he !ubrana baniks, a bulling tradipg community used to do banking in the then Bengal.
!ubse"uently, larger banking was gradually taken over by the upcountry bankers who were known as
!heth, !hah etc. But !ubrnabaniks continued to operate in rural Bengal. #ith the British gradually
coming over to Bengal and setting here, banking in the form of $gency %ouses started flourishing in
&alcutta. Entry of the Bengalees into banking started in the early part of this century, especially in
the wake of !wadeshi movement.

I3ve tried to ac"uire knowledge about the overall banking system at Brac Bank &heragi pahar
branch. I3ve worked with all of sections to ac"uire knowledge about the operations, procedures of
the work followed by the bank.
$naly4ing the different deposits, loans and advances, customer services, profitability of the bank is
one of the ob(ectives of the study.
In addition of the principal ob(ective, the following are some of the common but significant
ob(ectives of the study*
1.4 imitations
his study of a short course of time is not free from harriers. I have faced some obstacles while
conducting the study, these are*
a. /ack of sufficient knowledge*!. ime limits*c. &ollection of data*d. /ack of financial assistance*e. 5nwillingness in giving full information*f. More formalities*g. 5nwillingness of &ustomers*h . Difference between actual and budgeted figure*i. he data re"uires for sufficient analysis for report writing could not be collected due to
e cessive workload.
6fficially it is restricted to supply the outsider any necessary documents of the Bank, which
is so confidential. !o I used conversation method to collect data and write on it. &ertainly it hindered
the process of collecting data. he officials used to remain very busy with their day)to)day tasks and
hence it becomes very difficult to find out the re"uired data according to my re"uirements.
Despite all of my efforts, here may remain some errors.

Mitigating credit ris# /enders mitigate credit risk using several methods*
• $is#%!ased pricing * /enders generally charge a higher interest rate to borrowers who aremore likely to default, a practice called ris#%!ased pricing . /enders consider factors relating tothe loan such as loan purpose , credit rating , and loan)to)value ratio and estimates the effect onyield ; credit spread

the lender to the seller ;insurer< in e change for payment. he most common credit derivative isthe credit default s'ap .
• "ightening * /enders can reduce credit risk by reducing the amount of credit e tended, eitherin total or to certain borrowers. -or e ample, a distributor selling its products to atroubled retailer may attempt to lessen credit risk by reducing payment terms from net 30 to net
15.• Di&ersification * /enders to a small number of borrowers ;or kinds of borrower< face a highdegree of unsystematic credit risk, called concentration ris# . /enders reduce this risk
bydiversifying the borrower pool.• Deposit insurance * Many governments establish deposit insurance to guarantee bank
deposits of insolvent banks. !uch protection discourages consumers from withdrawing moneywhen a bank is becoming insolvent, to avoid a bank run , and encourages consumers to hold their savings in the banking system instead of in cash.

4.5 Credit ,&aluation Principles
In order to get the optimum returns from the deployed funds in different kinds of lending, more
emphasis shall be given on refund of loans and advances out of fund generated by the borrower from
their business activities instead of reali4ation of money by disposing of the securities held against the
advance which is very much uncertain and time consuming . !ome principles or standards of
lending are maintained loans in order to keep the risk to a minimum level and for successful banking
business. he main principles of lending are*

/i"uidity means the availability of bank funds on short notice. he li"uidity of an advance
means it repayment on demand on due date or after a short notice. herefore, the banks must have to
maintain sufficient li"uidity to repay its depositors and trade off between the li"uidity and
profitability is must.
4.7.2 Safet
!afety means the assurance of repayment of distributed loans. Bank is in business to make
money but safety should never be sacrificed for profitability, to ensure the safety of loan. he
borrower should be chosen carefully. %e should be a person of good character capacity as well as
bank must have to maintain eligible number of security from borrower,
4.7.! "rofita#ilit
Banking is a business aims at earning a good profit. he difference between the interest received
on advances and the interest paid on deposit constitute a ma(or portion of the bank income, besides,
foreign e change business is also highly remunerative. he bank will not enter into a transaction
unless a fair return assured.

serves as a safety value for an une pected emergency. !ince risk factors are involved, security
coverage has to be taken before a lending.
4.7.% &ational interest
Banking industry has significant roll to play in the economic development of a country. he bank
would lend if the purpose of the advances can contribute more to the overall economic development
of the country.

making it available as a cover for advance. he following modes of charging securities are applied in
the Brac Bank.
• Lien
$ lien is right of banker to hold the debtor3s property until the debt is discharged bank generally
retain the assets in his own custody but sometimes these goods is in the hands of third party with lien
marked. #hen it is in the hand of third party, the third party cannot discharge it without the
permission of bank. /ien gives banker the right to retain the property not the right to sell. /ien can
be made on moveable goods only such as raw materials, finished goods, shares etc.
• "ledge
0ledge is also like lien but here bank en(oys more right. Bank can sell the property without the
intervention of any court, incase of default on loan, But for such selling proper notice must be given
to the debtor. o create pledge, physical transfer of goods to the bank is must.
• ) pothecation
In this charge creation method physically the goods remained in the hand of debtor. But
documents of title to goods are handed over to the banker. his method is also called e"uitable
charge. !ince the goods are in the hand of the borrower, bank inspects the goods regularly to (udge
it s "uality and "uantity for the ma imum safety of loan.
• (ortgage
Mortgage is transfer of interest in specific immovable property. Mortgage is created on the
immovable property like land, building, plant etc. Most common type of mortgage is legal mortgage
in which ownership is transferred to the bank by registration of the mortgage deed. $nother method
called e"uitable mortgage is also used in bank for creation of charge. %ere mere deposit of title to
goods is sufficient for creation of charge. +egistration is not re"uired. In both the cases, the
mortgage property is retained in the bank of borrower.
• Trust *eceipt

sell this goods or process it further but borrower has no sufficient fund to pay off the bank loan.
%ere proceeds from any part of these goods are deposited to this bank.
• +d,ance against -or /0rder
$dvances can be made to a client to perform work order. he following points are to be taken
into consideration.
he client3s management capability, e"uity strength, nature of scheduled work and feasibility
study should be (udiciously made to arrive at logical decision. If there is a provision for running
bills for the work, appropriate amount to be deducted from each bill to ensure complete ad(ustment
of the liability within the payment period of the final bill besides assigning bills receivable,
additional collateral security may be insisted upon. Disbursement should be made only after
completion of documentation formalities and fulfillment of arrangements by the client to undertakethe contract. he progress of work under contract is reviewed periodically.
he lien assets generally are held in the bank3s go)down. !ometimes it is held in the go)down of
debtor with control of the bank. he debtor can take goods from it only with the permission of bank.

of the bank, the Board of Directors authori4ed the Managing Director and other top)level e ecutive,

the credit proposal with the re"uired information and sends it to the final authority, i.e. E 0, DMD
MD, of head office for final approval.
he most important measure of appraising a loan proposal is safely of the pro(ect. !afety is
measured by the borrower and repaying capacity of him. he attitude of the borrower is also an
important consideration li"uidity means the inflow of cash into the pro(ect in course of its operation.
he profit is the blood for any commercial institution. Before approval of any loan pro(ect the bank
authority has to be sure that the proposed pro(ect will be a profitable venture. 0rofitability is
assessed from the pro(ected profit and loss statement. he security is the only tangible remains with
the banker. !ecuring or collateral it is accepting is accepting is easy to sell and sufficient to cover
the loan amount. Bank cannot sanction loan by only depending on collateral. he sources of
repayment of the pro(ect should be a feasible one. During sanctioning any loan bank has to beattentive about diversification of risk. $ll money must not be disbursed amongst a small number of
people. In addition any pro(ect must be established for the national interest and growth.
&ommercial banks and financial institutions intermediate between lenders and borrowers. hese
financial intermediaries collect deposit and disburse it as loan and advance to the individual people,
business, commercial, industrial entity. he loan and advance should be given to them who has the
certain and predicted cash flow to repay the credit. If the relationship manager fail to analy4e the
clients viability of repaying the loan and the pro(ects cash flow possibility of default may arise due
to the fact. !o the importance of $00+$I!$/, in sanctioning the loan, is the key to identify the
borrower3s ability, e pertise, efficiency, industry analysis, and business performance to ensure the
recovery of the credit along with the good supervision, monitoring and the relationship. In a word it
can be said that the purpose of appraisal is to be sure that the proposed advance will be safe, li"uid,
profitable and for acceptable purpose covered by ade"uate security. $t the time of credit proposal the
bank has to come to an acceptable compromise between over caution and under caution.

then find out ways means to cover the risk. %owever, some commercial banks employ /+$
techni"ue as a credit appraisal tool for evaluating credit proposals amounting to k. 8 million and
above. Broadly /+$ package divides the credit risk into two categories, namely ))))) Business risk
and !ecurity risk.
$ detail interpretation of these risks and the procedure for evaluating the credit as follows
Business ris
It refers to the risk that the business falls to generate sufficient cash flow to repay the loan.
Business risk is subdivided into two categories.
$ndustr ris
+isk that the company falls for e ternal reason. It is subdivide into supplies and sales risk.
Supplies ris
It indicates that the business suffers from e ternal disruption to the supply of imputes.
&omponents of supplies risk are as raw material, /abor, power, machinery, e"uipment, factory
premises etc. !upply risk is assessed by a cost breakdown of the imputes and then assessing the risk
of disruption of supplies of each item.
Sales ris
his refers to the risk that the business suffers from e ternal disruption of sales. !ales may be
disrupted by changes to market si4e, increasing in competition, and change in the regulation or due
to the loss of single large customer. !ales risk is determined by analy4ing production or marketing
system, industry situation, Covernment policy, and competitor profile and companies strategies.
Compan ris
his refers to the risk that the company fails for internal reasons. &ompany risk is subdivided
into company position risk and Management risks .
Compan position ris
#ithin an industry each and every company holds a position. his position is very competitive.
Due to the weakness in the company:s position in the industry, a company is the risk for failure.
hat means company position risk is the risk of failure due to weakness in the companies3 position in

"erformance ris
his risk refers to the risk that the company3s position is so weak that it will be unable to repay
the loan even under -avor able e ternal condition. 0erformance risk assessed by !#6 ;!trength,
#eakness, 6pportunity and hreat< analysis, rend analysis, &ash flow forecast analysis and credit

33/54
(anagement integrit ris
his refers to the risk that the company fails to repay the loan amount due to lack of management
integrity. Management integrity is a combination of honesty and dependability. Management
integrity risk is determined by assessing management honesty, which re"uires evaluating the
reliability of information supplied and then management dependability.
Securit control ris
his risk refers to the risk that the bank falls to reali4e the security because of bank:s control over
the security offered by the borrower3s i.e. incomplete documents. he risk of failure to reali4e the
security depends on the difficulty in obtaining favorable (udgement and taking possession of
security. -or analy4ing the security control risk the credit office is re"uired to verify documentationto ensure security protection, documentation completeness, documentation integrity and proper
insurance policy.
Securit co,er ris
his refers to the risk that the reali4ed value of security is less than e posure. !ecurity cover risk
depends on speed of reali4ation and li"uidation value. -or analy4ing security cover risk, the official
re"uires the assessing power of the customer to prolong the legal process and to analy4e the market
demand for the security.
Before completing the /+$ form, the relationship manager collects data specially industry
specific from published sources and company specific data that not usually published by personally
visiting the company. $fter collecting the necessary data heL she prepares financial spreadsheet.
his spreadsheet provides a "uick method of assessing business trend efficiency and helps to
assess the borrower ability to pay the loan obligation. -inancial spreadsheet includes balance sheet,
income statement, cash flow statement and ratios for the purpose of financial statement analysis.
hrough analy4ing data and collected information, the concerned official completes the /+$ formand all scores are transferred to the scoring matri to find the overall risk of lending. he overall
matri provides four kinds of lending risk for decision)making vi4.));I< Cood ;ii< $cceptable ;iii<

Banks may fall into engulfing crisis or may wind up with consumption of capital if they do not
practice proper loan classification and provisioning system on their advances. he &entral bank, as a
controller of financial discipline, usually issues guidelines on classification and provisioning system

and supervises the same for making the credit discipline strong and confident. his paper attempts
to discuss the guidelines of loan classification and provisioning system prescribed so far by
Bangladesh Bank with a view to ensuring financial soundness of the banking sector. $n e pectation
has also been made to see the status of classified loans by years with the changing scenario of
classification guidelines. It is observed that Bangladesh Bank has issued a number of circulars on
loan classification system from 1F?F. But the "uestion of ensuring robust banking system through
proper application of classification rules on the non)performing loans is yet to be established.
.2 oan Classification
/oan classification means giving each and every loan case a status like unclassified, substandard,
and doubtful or badLloss through verification of borrower3s repayment performance on a particular
date ;at present, the "uarter ended date < while provisioning means setting aside fund from the profit
against possible loan loss, his is done for safeguarding the depositor:s money, protecting owners,
e"uity and ensuring proper recycling of funds so as to accelerate the economic growth of a country.
Besides, a proper loan classification and provisioning system ensures credibility of the financial
system that in turn restores trust and confidence in the minds of the depositors. Being a developing
country, banking sector in Bangladeshi also took the responsibility of enhancing economic growth
by way of e panding bank branches in the rural Bangladesh and disbursing credit both in the
agricultural and industrial sector in relatively easier term. -urther, it also took the burden of state
owned enterprises that was indiscipline and loss making at that time. $gain, the banking sector was
assigned the task of developing a new Bangladeshi entrepreneurial class to complement the
government efforts of productive investments through the state run economy.
(a8or +ims of Loan Classification
he ob(ectives of loan classification and provisioning are as follows*
o regulari4e follow)up and monitoring activities.
o strengthen the credit discipline and to bring trust and confidence in the financial system.

o improve recovery position and to transfer necessary amount from the income as interest

o raise a fund ;reserve for provision< gradually, may help the bank to lessen the burden of
loan loss in a single year.
o comply with Bangladesh Bank:s instructions.
o consolidate and provide necessary data, which will help the concerned authority of the
bank as well as the government, and Bangladesh Bank in formulating and activating
necessary policies.

of recovery, of the loans due to the following reasons*

credit management by hindering the achievement of investment banking ob(ectives and these are the
main findings of this pro(ect, which are analy4ed in the following part.
5.1 +indings o provide the loan it need appropriate loan security and its proper valuation. But as the
organi4ation that performs the valuation of those securities is paid by the banks, they are not
independent in providing proper valuation of security. !ometime they do valuation by forcing of
some credit officers and these are happening because of the lobbing from upper management.
0roper loan classification and provisioning system ensures operational soundness and
li"uidity of the bank. But enforcement of laws is essential for bringing credibility in the
financial system. If a borrower knows that the e isting laws will not be able to touch him within
1@ years of hisL her loan defaults, the entrepreneurs will simply loot the capital and dissolve the
business willingly leaving no hope for the bankers. In this case loan classification system will
not bring desired results.
here is no provision of trend analysis in the e isting proposal format of BB/. rend analysis
is an analysis of a firm3s financial ratios over time used to determine the improvement or
deteriorate in its financial situation. rend analysis provides information about whether the
firm3s financial position is more likely to improve or deteriorate in the future. rend analysis is
done by changing the percentage and comparing the current year with the previous years. BB/,
at present does not do trend analysis.
o appraise the credit proposal, the credit application form re"uires several financial
information from the clients. But the clients disclose those rarely. $gain, most of the business
concern does not maintain proper records of transaction and financial statement. herefore the
inade"uate financial data hinder the credit appraisal system.
$ccording to the standard and Bank3s credit procedure &redit operation started from the
customer application to the branch for the loan. But in most of the cases many customers go
directly to the directors of the bank and directors send them to the branch offices with hisLher
reference. In these cases proper appraisal is not possible as directors are the owner of the bank

and bank management must give priority towards the decision of the directors. his
phenomenon is very common in the bank which hampers the spontaneous procedure of credit
appraisal.
he loan officers of banks hardly remain in touch with the borrower beyond routinecorrespondence after the loan is approved and disbursed. It is very common scenario that the
loan officers are remaining busy with their day to day work, especially in loan disbursing. But it
is also true that after getting the loan clients are loosing their interest in repaying the installment.
In this case it very necessary to keep continuous persuasion with those clients, which is not
present in this organi4ation.
$s disbursement of a loan banks re"uired both "uantitative and "ualitative analysis but for big
loans bank emphasi4es on the lending risk analysis. But /+$ is not a perfect measure of credit
analysis. Because businessmen in our society are usually tempted to take resort to window)
dressing.
5.2 $ecommendation
his study suggests that some development)oriented steps can be considered to make the credit
appraisal system and credit management more effective further. hese steps will help to keep the
appraisal system and credit management ready to meet any possible challenge and to grab any
further opportunity as well as to remove the problems lying with the e isting credit appraisal system
and credit management currently can be as follows*

banks, so the individual top level employees should value law and order of the banks. he top
level employees should use their power properly and should not illegally relate with the
borrower3s in sanctioning loans.
!ensitivity analysis shows how the value of criteria ;say 0 , I++ etc.< changes with the
changes in the value of any variable in the analysis. his analysis is applicable only in pro(ect
finance. -or e ample $ is a pro(ect and the bank is going to finance in that pro(ect. #e have
seen earlier that the bankers do forecasted cost of good sold, financial ratios etc. but if later
increase in raw material costs or decrease in sales revenue or increase in manufacturing overhead
how sensitive will be the pro(ect3s profitability and debt service coverage capacity that is
calculated in sensitivity analysis. !o BB/ should include sensitivity analysis in proposal format
to analy4e pro(ect finance.
0revention is better than cure. his should be the watchword for monitoring and supervising
loan accounts of a bank. Making &lassifications and pursuing borrowers to regulari4e the
accounts rarely meet successes. he cost of such e ercise is also heavy. herefore the banks
should evolve appropriate system to detect deficiencies in the management of credit operations
well before it call for classification. In this regard an effective supervision system should be in
place both in the scheduled the central bank.
5.- Conclusion
$ banker cannot sleep well with bad debts in his portfolio. he failure of commercial banks
occurs mainly due to bad loans, which occurs due to inefficient management of the loans and
advances portfolio. herefore any banks must be e tremely cautious about its lending portfolio and
credit policy. !o far BB/ has been able to manage its credit portfolio skillfully and kept the

and practices of the bank.
But all things around us are changing at an accelerating rate. oday is not like yesterday and
tomorrow will be different from today. Civen the fast changing, dynamic global economy and the
increasing pressure of globali4ation, liberali4ation, consolidation and disintermediation, it is
essential that BB/ robust credit risk management policies and procedures that are sensitive to these
changes. o improve the risk management culture further, BB/ should adopt some of the industry
best practices that are not practiced yet.
he effectiveness of the credit appraisal system depends not only the on the well) defined
documents but also on the well)structured administration, proper application and continuous feed
back and monitoring system. he ma(or tasks for banks are to survive in this competitive
environment is by managing its assets and liabilities in an efficient way. o make the assetsespecially loan and advances banks must have to more cautious and otherwise this asset will become
a burden for the bank. o have fruitful deal bank must to do the credit review rightly.
