The real risk from credit is the deviation of portfolio performance from its expected value. Different types of loan providing the corporate people also business person. Loan may provide as a short term also long term. The credit risk of a bank also affects the book value of a bank. The more credit of a particular is in risk, the more probability of a bank to be insolvent. Therefore, the status of depositor in the bank is at risk and probability of incurring loss from their deposited value.

Introduction


At the arena of globalization and technological innovation, banking business has become more competitive.

Comment                      
From the graphical presentation we want to conclude that its loans and advances are increasing from the year of establishment. In the above figure it is observable that it is upward trend. But, in 2007 & 2008, the loans & advances were decreasing because of political crisis in Bangladesh. On the other hand, government had taken a fruitful solution & system which helped the banking sector. The expansion of loan & advances help the business people to invest more in different sector which result in the growth of the economy.

3.8. Interest income from loan & advances
 Income derived from loans and advances from the year 2014 to 2016 is given below:

Comment:
As City Bank increases its loans and advances from year to year, so it is logical that it interest income from sanctioning loans and advances are more. The bank has achieved the highest profit

Comment
From the above figure it can be concluded that deposit is higher from loans and advances in all year. This year bank had to acquire loan for their investment proposal. Deposit and advances of last four years. Graph shows that advances are decrease day by day, but deposit is increasing. Although, its shows a more pubic reliance about bank. But it not cases a decrease in profit. Major portion profit of a bank is interest income, so bank should take appropriate step to expend loan and advances.
3.12. Loans-Deposits Ratio
The ratio indicates the proportion of the bank's deposits is disbursed as loan. This ratio also indicates the efficiency of the bank in raising funds and utilizing them. The bank managed to lend out most of its funds. This way it generated high income in all years. However, this ratio exceeded 100% in 2016. Although this may be risky. The loans to deposit ratio is given below:

It is observable that loans and advances never exceeded from deposit. For non-Islamic bank Bangladesh bank rules is that eighty percent of total deposit can provide loans and advances .Loans to deposit ratio of CBL is volatile, which is shown 2006-2016.

3.13.   Concentration of loans and advances in total assets
Table shows the concentration of loans and advances in total assets of City  Bank. The high concentration of loans and advances indicates vulnerability of assets to credit risk. Here it is noticeable that ratio of total loans and advances to total assets is increasing from year to year.

Comment
Decrease loan & advance to total asset ratio City Bank because of volatile financial situation of Bangladesh & beyond of Bangladesh .From the above figure it can be concluded that the ratio of total loans and advances of City Bank is higher. Here the lowest ratio is 46.85 % in 2010. So, City Bank should care their total loans to assets ratio
3.14 Classified  Loans
Every Bank has to send a monthly CIB Report to the Bangladesh Bank for amounts due up to TK.50, 000 mentioning the name of the borrower and the purpose for which loan has been sanctioned and a monthly statement for the amount due more TK.1 crore. Bangladesh Bank provides CL (Classification Form) to every bank for preparing this report. According to Bangladesh Bank there are four types of loan .Status of loans and advances is one of the criterions of judging the performance of a bank. In case of classified or unsound loan City Bank's performance has not been so quite impressive as the table discloses. With the increase of loan disbursement the amount of classified loan, especially substandard loan, has increased quite fast in 2012. In 2014 bad/loss loan also increased more than 11 folds from previous year.If any borrower fails to repay his amount or installment within the following time period then it will fall under the following classification status:

3.15   Regression Analysis:

Regression:
Regression is a statistical technique to determine the linear relationship between two or more variables.
Regression shows the relationship between one independent variable (X) and a dependent variable (Y), as in the formula below:
y = a + bx
Multiple Regressions:
Multiple linear regressions are the most common form of linear regression analysis.  As a predictive analysis, the multiple linear regressions are used to explain the relationship between one continuous dependent variable and two or more independent variables. 
The equation that describes a multiple regression relationship is:
            y = a + b1x1 + b2x2 + b3x3 + … bnxn + e

Loan Policy 


4.1 Policy of Loan of Recovery
Loan recovery is an important function of City Bank like loan disbursement. Basically, success of the bank depends on the performance of loan recovery. For these reason City Bank follows some rules and regulation of loan recovery. These are –
Ø  General Policy
Ø  Statutory policy

General Policy
At first City Bank pursues general policy to recover loan. It is an easy and simple way of credit collection. The general policies are:
                             a. To inspire with courage pay back of the installment money in due time.
                             b. To provide reward for those lenders who clear off his installment money in due time.
                            c. To provide punishment for those borrowers who do not pay back the installment money in time.
                            d. To supervise credit.

Statutory Policy
When City Bank cannot recover its disbursed loan through general policies then City Bank follows statutory rules and regulation to recover disbursed loan. It is a complex system of loan recovery.

4.2   Loan Recovery Procedure
           Demand Notice
Demand Notice is issued before one month of being due of outstanding loan or installment through field supervisor of mail.

       

 Legal Notice
If the borrower do not repay their respective loans and interest after maturity in spite of receiving the demand notice by the bank sends legal notice by registered mail with acknowledgement.
Special Notice
Besides the aforesaid two notices, a special notice signed by DC, TNO is sent to respective borrower to keep mental pressure on him for paying the loan.
Field Recovery
Loan officer recovers the recovered loan through L.O. receipts by visiting the spot and houses of the borrower.

Loan Recovery Camp
During the harvesting period, loan recovery camp can be set up on the spot for recovering loan.

Case Filing
If all the procedure except legal action of recovering loan fails, then certificate case filed against
Borrower. If the borrower is in the following category then case has to be field with priority. Unwilling to repay loan although he is financially solvent. Every effort of loan recovery becomes failure. Detrimental to the interest of bank loan.

4.3. Cause of Poor Recovery of Loan
      
                    4.3.1 Error in selecting appropriate
Loan recovery mainly depends upon selecting appropriate loan. If the bank sanctions loan an in appropriate party it is impossible to recover the loan during its recovery period. His appropriate loan means the party will be honest, socially acceptable and able to repay the loan. But in case of selecting loan this procedure is no fully maintained by the branch. So, a large number of loan becomes defaulter in every year.




4.3.2   Granting consumer loans are not appropriate
Historically, most banks did not actively pursue loan account from individual and families, believing that the relatively small size of most consumer loan and their relatively high default rate would make such lending unprofitable.

4.3.3   Lack of intensive inspection
It is the major cause of poor recovery. If the bank properly supervise the loan utilization and other considerable factor, then recovery position must be satisfactory. But because of dishonesty or misuse of job duties bank failed to inspect the disbursed loan. As a result a huge amount of loan is not recovered every year.

4.3.4   Influence of local prominent
Many local elite’s misguides loaned not to pay loan. It is one of the most important barriers to recover loan timely.

4.3.5   Lack of public awareness
Most of the in our country are not aware of social and economic condition of country. They do not try to understand that if they do not repay the loan to bank timely then the bank cannot play significant role in the economy.

4.3.6   Political situation
Sometimes political situation create great barrier to recover the loan. Such as some time government takes decision to exempt loan and much political leader default a large number of loans by miss use of their power.

4.3.7   Cause of Poor Recovery of Loan
a. To meet with the borrower and to inspire him to repay at least 2 days in a week.
b. If the borrower does not come to repay then the bank should take the help of administration.
c. Bank should try to convince the borrower that the legal action or try rule of law will go against him.

Findings, Recommendations and Conclusion

5.1 FINDINGS

The loan and advance department takes a long time to process a loan because the of sanctioning loan is done manually. Since loan and advance department is not fully automated there is a high risk of losing documents of disbursed loan.

a)      The banks do not provide more loan in the small and cottage industry and the agricultural, fishing and forestry also.
b)      Online banking facilities, ATM services and mobile banking facility are not available.
c)      Absence of some concept of fist generation banking such as E-Cash, Debit/Credit Card, Special Scheme for Fixed Deposit etc.
d)     Political pressure is another limitation to recovery of loan. Due to various above mentioned problems, the recovery of disburse loan become impossible. As a result most of the disbursed loan remains unpaid
e)      Lack of technological resources as well as Internet banking
f)       Lack of Technical Knowledge of the staff about modern banking business
g)      Week Salary Structure compare to other bank of same category
h)      The lack of necessary rules, which are required to collects loans      
i)        City bank limited does not update its Websites regularly; as a result the clients are unable to gather information.
j)        Lack of attention of CBL for customer’s needs.
k)      Lack of effective management information system (MIS)

5.2 RECOMMENDATIONS
The failure of commendable banks occurs mainly   due to bad loans, which occurs due to inefficient management of the loans and advances portfolio. Based on the evaluation of different aspects of CBL, the following recommendations have been proposed:

a)      The bank should emphasize on reducing the classified and non-performing credits by concerted efforts
b)      In the credit department, strict supervision is necessary to avoid loan defaulters. Bank official should do regular visit to the projects.
c)      CBL need to avoid nepotism.
d)     Politically influenced lending or project finance should be checked.
e)      The average number of days required for sanctioning and disbursement of credit against specific loan proposal should be reduced.
f)       Strict Supervision must be adapted in case of high risk borrowers. Time to time visit to the projects should be done by the bank officers.
g)      Credit officers must be skilled enough to understand the manipulated and distorted financial statements.
h)      Central monitoring system should be more active to maintain classified loan to a minimum level.
i)        Care should also be taken so that good borrowers are not discarded due to strict adherence to the lending policy.
j)        Manager of the branch should monitor the activities of the officers so that the clients get efficient service.
k)      CBL need to maintain the ISG negative as the bank rate is decreasing.
l)        Maintain the SLR properly. Two year the bank is failed to maintain the minimum SLR.
m)    Make sure the stability of the loan collection.
n)      An uninterrupted network system has to be ensured. It will save the officials from much hassle and will save time.
o)      Filing is a very important component of proper documentation. It has to be dealt with importance.
p)      Salary scale should be increased to motivate extremely dissatisfied employees and to reduce misconduct.
q)      Vaults security should be increased.
r)       To attract more credit clients should seek new marketing strategy.
s)       CBL should conduct close monitoring during validity/repayment period of loan.
t)       Gear up persuasion right from initial stage of its default/non-payment of installments.
u)      Understanding reasons of non-payment to obviate the problem.

5.3 CONCLUSION
We have focused and analyzed on Credit Risk Management in City Bank Limited. The banking sector in any country plays an important role in economic activities. Bangladesh is no exception of that as its financial development and economic development are closely related. That is why the private commercial banks are playing significant role in this regard. This report focused and analyzed on Credit Risk Management in CBL. In the past decade there has been a revolution in the communication media through the introduction of     internet and other forms of secure dial-up media. This had an immense impact on all the sectors of the industry specially the banking sector. Traditionally in order to execute banking transaction a customer would require coming at the bank. City Bank Ltd. is much different in any terms. Its activities are vast and in cases unique to any other bank. Its deposits and loans are huge compared to other banks. It finances government projects, provides unique services to people in need, even in places it works as central bank. This Bank often makes decision for the welfare of general public despite risk of credit exposure. The bank has established a sound credit risk management and credit risk mitigation policy. Compliance with Basel II norms helps the Bank to improve their profitability through better credit risk management systems In recent years; the bank has been exposed to credit risk due large scale loan defaults. Top managements malpractice and mismanagement caused less return on investment.  Recovery from top 20 loan defaulters in 2014 was only 37 percent. As for non-performing loans recovery, City Bank Ltd. Achieved 50 percent of the target. (The Daily Star, March 27, 2014)

So CBL can focus on their strengths to materialize the opportunities hidden for them in the banking industry and also they can work on their weakness to develop the product effectively and grab more opportunity hidden in the banking industry. With their strengths CBL can also reduce the threats existing in the market. They have strengths with their solid brand image and experience and skills as well, with which they are being CBL to satisfy the customers with their wide range of products and services.
