The important of the financial institutions can hardly be over emphasized in the growing internationalization on Indian business at very rapid pace in recent few years following the government policy of economic liberalization and globalization coupled with depending technology and fierce competition. In, fact financial institutions are categorized broadly into two groups Money market and Capital market. Capital market comprises institutions which grant long-term loans and invest in securities in different forms for different industrial purposes. Money market is composed of commercial and other types of banks and agencies catering to short-term capital requirements in different sectors of the economy. After nationalization of commercial banks in 1969 revealed the suitable definition of commercial banks. “Acceptance of deposit for the purpose of lending”. In this way, lending is one of the two principle functions of commercial banks not only because of their social obligation to cater to the credit needs but also because lending is the most profitable for the interest rates realized on business loans. Loans are provided in a variety of ways to different sections of the economy according to the form security, maturity, method of repayment origin and purpose. An understanding of different winds of loans would provide an insight into the lending activities of banks.
CHAPTER - 1 INTRODUCTION
INTRODUNCTION Lending is the most profitable business of any commercial bank. The main functions of commercial bank are to accept deposits and grant loans. In the Balance Sheet of the commercial bank deposits are at Liabilities side and the loans and Advances are at Assets side. The deposit in any form taken by the bank from the customer is treated as the liability of the bank and similar as that the loan and advances lent to the customer is treated as assets of the bank. The term “Evaluation” arises at the time of lending of loan. When bank goes to finance any proposal, it wants to know whether the proposal is economically and technically viable or not. It is also required to be tested whether the party (who will take the loan) is able to repay the loan amount with interest component at stipulated time period or not. Thus the “Evaluation of lending policy” refers to the measurement of credibility of the loan repayment. It helps the bank to mobilize their funds in prudent manner. In the current scenario, most of the bank loans are face it the heat of recession and they go bad and become NPAs (Non-Performing Assets). Repayment of the loan in form of EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is not take place. To overcome from this situation bank has decided restructuring of the loans by converting the working capital loan to term loan and not to take interest for the one year/ two year and make another loan account with the same FITL (Funding Interest to Term Loan) and so on. On basis of Evaluation a banker can analyzes the all aspects like economics technical, managerial, market risk, financial risk, business risk, etc of the related proposal. It helps the bank to be more competitive in the market and get the reward of the prudent decision of lending as a fair interest.
