ICICI Bank is subject to the Basel II framework with effect from March 31, 2008 as stipulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The Basel II framework consists of three-mutually reinforcing pillars:
Market discipline (Pillar 3) comprises set of disclosures on the capital adequacy and risk management framework of the Bank. These disclosures have been set out in the following sections.
Pillar 3 disclosures apply to ICICI Bank Limited and its consolidated entities, wherein ICICI Bank Limited is the controlling entity in the group.
Consolidation for capital adequacy is based on consolidated financial statements of ICICI Bank and its subsidiaries in line with the guidelines for consolidated accounting and other quantitative methods issued by RBI.
The entities considered for consolidation for capital adequacy include subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures of the Bank, which carry on activities of banking or financial nature as stated in the scope for preparing consolidated prudential reports as prescribed by RBI. Entities engaged in insurance business and businesses not pertaining to financial services are excluded from consolidation for capital adequacy. Investment above 30% in paid-up equity capital of financial entities which are not consolidated for capital adequacy (including insurance entities) and investments in other instruments eligible for regulatory capital status in those entities are deducted to the extent of 50% from Tier-1 and 50% from Tier-2 capital.

Objective
The Bank actively manages its capital to meet regulatory norms and current and future business needs considering the risks in its businesses, expectation of rating agencies, shareholders and investors, and the available options of raising capital.
Organisational set-up
The capital management framework of the Bank is administered by the Finance Group and the Risk Management Group (RMG) under the supervision of the Board and the Risk Committee.
Regulatory capital
The Bank is subject to the capital adequacy norms stipulated by the RBI guidelines on Basel II. The RBI guidelines on Basel II require the Bank to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of 9.0%, with a minimum Tier-1 capital adequacy ratio of 6.0%. The total capital adequacy ratio of the Bank at a standalone level at March 31, 2011 as per the RBI guidelines on Basel II is 19.54% with a Tier-1 capital adequacy ratio of 13.17%. The total capital adequacy ratio of the ICICI Group (consolidated) at March 31, 2011 as per the RBI guidelines on Basel II is 19.92% with a Tier-1 capital adequacy ratio of 12.72%.
Under Pillar 1 of the RBI guidelines on Basel II, the Bank follows the standardised approach for credit and market risk and basic indicator approach for operational risk.
Internal assessment of capital
The Bank’s capital management framework includes a comprehensive internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP) conducted annually and which determines the adequate level of capitalisation for the Bank to meet regulatory norms and current and future business needs, including under stress scenarios. The ICAAP is formulated at both standalone bank level and the consolidated group level. The ICAAP encompasses capital planning for a four year time horizon, identification and measurement of material risks and the relationship between risk and capital.
The Bank’s capital management framework is complemented by its risk management framework (detailed in the following sections), which includes a comprehensive assessment of material risks.
Stress testing which is a key aspect of the ICAAP and the risk management framework provides an insight on the impact of extreme but plausible scenarios on the Bank’s risk profile and capital position. Based on the Board-approved stress testing framework, the Bank conducts stress tests on its various portfolios and assesses the impact on its capital ratios and the adequacy of capital buffers for current and future periods. The Bank periodically assesses and refines its stress tests in an effort to ensure that the stress scenarios capture material risks as well as reflect possible extreme market moves that could arise as a result of market conditions.
The business and capital plans and the stress testing results of the group entities are integrated into the ICAAP.
Based on the ICAAP, the Bank determines its capital needs and the optimum level of capital by considering the following in an integrated manner:
| • | Bank’s strategic focus, business plan and growth objectives; |
| • | regulatory capital requirements as per the RBI guidelines; |
| • | assessment of material risks and impact of stress testing; |
| • | perception of credit rating agencies, shareholders and investors; |
| • | future strategy with regard to investments or divestments in subsidiaries; and |
| • | evaluation of options to raise capital from domestic and overseas markets, as permitted by RBI from time to time. |
The Bank formulates its internal capital level targets based on the ICAAP and endeavours to maintain its capital adequacy level in accordance with the targeted levels at all times.
Monitoring and reporting
The Board of Directors of ICICI Bank maintains an active oversight over the Bank’s capital adequacy levels. On a quarterly basis an analysis of the capital adequacy position and the risk weighted assets and an assessment of the various aspects of Basel II on capital and risk management as stipulated by RBI, are reported to the Board. Further, the capital adequacy position of the banking subsidiaries and the significant non-banking subsidiaries based on the respective host regulatory requirements is also reported to the Board. In line with the RBI requirements for consolidated prudential report, the capital adequacy position of the ICICI Group (consolidated) is reported to the Board on a half-yearly basis.
Further, the ICAAP which is an annual process also serves as a mechanism for the Board to assess and monitor the Bank’s and the Group’s capital adequacy position over a four year time horizon.
Capital adequacy of the subsidiaries
Each subsidiary in the Group assesses the adequate level of capitalisation required to meet its respective host regulatory requirements and business needs. The Board of each subsidiary maintains oversight over the capital adequacy framework for the subsidiary either directly or through separately constituted committees.
Basel III
In order to strengthen the resilience of the banking sector to potential future shocks, together with ensuring adequate liquidity in the banking system, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) issued the Basel III proposals on December 17, 2009. Following a consultation phase on these proposals, the final set of Basel III rules were issued on December 16, 2010. The Basel III rules on capital consist of measures on improving the quality, consistency and transparency of capital, enhancing risk coverage, introducing a supplementary leverage ratio, reducing procyclicality and promoting countercyclical buffers, and addressing systemic risk and interconnectedness. The Basel III rules on liquidity consist of a measure of short-term liquidity coverage ratio aimed at building liquidity buffers to meet stress situations and a measure of long-term net stable funding ratio aimed at promoting longer term structural funding. BCBS has stipulated a phased implementation of the Basel III framework between January 1, 2013 and January 1, 2019.
Guidelines on Basel III framework for the Indian banking system are awaited from RBI. The Bank continues to monitor developments on the Basel III framework and believes that its current robust capital adequacy position, adequate headroom currently available to raise hybrid/debt capital, demonstrated track record of access to domestic and
overseas markets for capital raising and adequate flexibility in its balance sheet structure and business model will enable it to adapt to the Basel III framework, as and when it is implemented.
| b. | Capital requirements for various risk areas (March 31, 2011) |
As required by RBI guidelines on Basel II, the Bank’s capital requirements have been computed using the Standardised approach for credit risk, Standardised Duration method for market risk and Basic Indicator approach for operational risk. The minimum capital required to be held at 9.00% for credit, market and operational risks is given below:

| Total capital ratio | 19.92% | 19.54% | 23.07% | 26.32% | 34.64% |
1. Computed as per capital adequacy guidelines issued by regulators of respective jurisdictions.
2. Tier-1 capital ratio is not required to be reported in line with regulatory norms stipulated by the Central Bank of Russia.
| 4. | RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK |
As a financial intermediary, the Bank is exposed to various types of risks including credit, market, liquidity, operational, legal, compliance and reputation risks. The objective of the risk management framework at the Bank is to ensure that various risks are understood, measured and monitored and that the policies and procedures established to address these risks are strictly adhered to.
The key principles underlying the risk management framework at the Bank are as follows:
| 1. | The Board of Directors has oversight on all the risks assumed by the Bank. Specific Committees of the Board have been constituted to facilitate focused oversight of various risks. The Risk Committee reviews the risk management policies in relation to various risks and the Bank’s compliance with risk management guidelines stipulated by the RBI and of the status of implementation of the advanced approaches under the Basel framework. It reviews key risk indicators covering areas such as credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, foreign exchange risk, operational and outsourcing risks and the limits framework, including stress test limits for various risks. The Risk Committee also reviews the risk profile of the overseas banking subsidiaries annually. Credit Committee reviews developments in key industrial sectors and the Bank’s exposure to these sectors and various portfolios on a periodic basis. Audit Committee provides direction to and also monitors the quality of the internal audit function. |
| 2. | Policies approved from time to time by the Board of Directors/Committees of the Board form the governing framework for each type of risk. The business activities are undertaken within this policy framework. |
| 3. | Independent groups and sub-groups have been constituted across the Bank to facilitate independent evaluation, monitoring and reporting of various risks. These control groups function independently of the business groups/sub-groups. |
The risk management framework forms the basis of developing consistent risk principles across the Bank, overseas branches and overseas banking subsidiaries.
Material risks are identified, measured, monitored and reported to the Board of Directors and Board level committees through the following:
Key risk indicators are presented to the Risk Committee on a periodic basis. The presentation covers an overview of the key developments in the global and domestic economy as well as trends observed in the major industries where the Bank has an exposure. Additionally, risk indicators with respect to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk are also presented and discussed.
As part of ICAAP, the Bank conducts stress testing under various historical and hypothetical scenarios to assess the impact of stress on current and projected capital positions. The methodology for the stress testing is approved by the Board of Directors. The results of stress testing are reported to the Board of Directors and submitted to RBI annually as part of the ICAAP. As detailed in the ICAAP, stress test results are reported periodically for various risks to the Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO).
| c. | Stress tolerance limits |
In line with various risk limits applicable for the Bank’s portfolios, stress tolerance limits have been formulated for various risks. The actual position/utilisation against the limits is periodically reported to Board level committees/ALCO.
| d. | Risk profile templates |
Bank-wide risk dashboard covering various risks of the Bank is presented to the Risk Committee and to the Board on a quarterly basis. The risk dashboard provides the level and the direction of risk at Bank level with a comparison to the previous quarter. The level and direction of risk are arrived at based on pre-determined parameters.
| e. | Other reviews by Credit Committee |
Apart from sanctioning proposals, the Credit Committee carries out reviews of the credit quality of the portfolio at regular intervals. The Committee also reviews specific cases that need special attention, details of credit sanctions, irregularity reports and movement in non-performing loans. Further, the Committee reviews developments in industrial sectors and specific strategies of the Bank with respect to the exposure to those industries.
| f. | Reporting against prudential exposure norms |
Status of actual position against prudential exposure limits set by the Board or stipulated by RBI is reported periodically to respective committees.
Measurement of risks for capital adequacy purposes
Under Pillar 1 of the extant RBI guidelines on Basel II, the Bank currently follows the standardised approach for credit and market risk and basic indicator approach for operational risk.
The Bank is exposed to credit risk in its lending operations. Credit risk is the risk of loss that may occur from the failure of any counterparty to abide by the terms and conditions of any financial contract with the Bank, principally the failure to make required payments as per the terms and conditions of the contracts.
Policies and processes
All credit risk related aspects are governed by Credit and Recovery Policy (Credit Policy). Credit Policy outlines the type of products that can be offered, customer categories, target customer profile, credit approval process and limits. The Credit Policy is approved by the Board of Directors.
The delegation structure for approval of credit limits is approved by the Board of Directors. All credit proposals other than retail products, program lending and certain other specified products are rated internally by the Risk Management Group (RMG) prior to approval by the appropriate forum.
Credit facilities with respect to retail products are provided as per approved product policies. All retail products and policies require the approval of the Committee of Executive Directors.
| • | Within the retail operations, there is segregation of the sourcing, verification, approval and disbursement of retail credit exposures to achieve independence. |
| • | Program lending involves a cluster based approach wherein a lending program is implemented for a homogeneous group of individuals/business entities which comply with certain laid down parameterised norms. The approving authority as per the Board approved authorisation lays down these parameters. |
| • | For certain products including dealer funding, builder finance and facilities fully collateralised by cash and cash equivalents, the delegation structure approved by the Board of Directors may permit exemption from the stipulation pertaining to internal rating, up to a certain loan amount. Credit approval limits with respect to such products are laid out in the delegation structure approved by the Board of Directors. |
A risk based asset review framework has been put in place wherein the frequency of asset review would be higher for cases with higher outstanding and/or lower credit rating.
Structure and organisation
RMG is responsible for rating of the credit portfolio, tracking trends in various industries and periodic reporting of portfolio-level changes. RMG is segregated into sub-groups for corporate, small enterprises, rural and agri-linked banking group and retail businesses.
The overseas banking subsidiaries of the Bank have also established similar structures to ensure adequate risk management, factoring in the risks particular to the respective businesses and the regulatory and statutory guidelines. The risk heads of all overseas banking subsidiaries have a reporting relationship to the Head - RMG, in addition to reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the respective subsidiaries.
Credit risk assessment process
There is a structured and standardised credit approval process including a comprehensive credit risk assessment process, which encompasses analysis of relevant quantitative and qualitative information to ascertain credit rating of the borrower.
The credit rating process involves assessment of risk emanating from various sources such as industry risk, business risk, financial risk, management risk, project risk and structure risk.
In respect of retail advances, the Bank's credit officers evaluate credit proposals on the basis of the operating notes approved by the Committee of Executive Directors and the risk assessment criteria defined by RMG.
Credit approval authorisation structure
The Board of Directors has delegated the authority to the Credit Committee consisting of a majority of independent Directors, the Committee of Executive Directors consisting of whole time Directors, the Committee of Senior Management consisting of whole time directors and Group Executives, the Committee of Executives, the Regional Committee, Small and Medium Enterprise and corporate Agriculture Forums and Retail Credit
Forums, all consisting of designated executives, and to individual executives in the case of program/policy based products, to approve financial assistance within certain individual and group exposure limits set by the Board of Directors. The authorisation is based on the level of risk and the quantum of exposure, to ensure that the transactions with higher exposure and level of risk are put up to correspondingly higher forum/committee for approval.
In respect of retail loans, all product-level policies require the approval of the Committee of Executive Directors. The criteria incorporated in these policies vary across product segments but typically include factors such as the borrower’s income, the loan-to-value ratio and demographic parameters. The individual credit proposals are evaluated and approved by executives on the basis of the product policies.
Credit risk monitoring process
For effective monitoring of credit facilities, a post-approval authorisation structure has been laid down. For corporate, small enterprises and rural and agriculture linked banking business, Credit Middle Office Group verifies adherence to the terms of the approval prior to commitment and disbursement of credit facilities.
Within retail, the Bank has established centralised operations to manage operational risk in the various back office processes of the Bank's retail loan business except for a few operations, which are decentralised to improve turnaround time for customers. A fraud prevention and control group has been set up to manage fraud-related risks through fraud prevention and through recovery of fraud losses. The fraud control group evaluates various external agencies involved in the retail finance operations, including direct marketing associates, external verification associates and collection agencies.
The Bank has a collections unit structured along various product lines and geographical locations, to manage delinquency levels. The collections unit operates under the guidelines of a standardised recovery process.
The segregation of responsibilities and oversight by groups external to the business groups ensure adequate checks and balances.
Reporting and measurement
Credit exposure for the Bank is measured and monitored using a centralised exposure management system. The analysis of the composition of the portfolio is presented to the Risk Committee on a quarterly basis.
The Bank complies with the norms on exposure stipulated by RBI for both single borrower as well as borrower group at the consolidated level. Limits have been set as a percentage of the Bank’s consolidated capital funds and are regularly monitored. The utilisation against specified limits is reported to the Committee of Executive Directors and Credit Committee on a periodic basis.
Credit concentration risk
Credit concentration risk arises mainly on account of concentration of exposures under various categories including industry, products, geography, sensitive sectors, underlying collateral nature and single/group borrower exposures.
Limits have been stipulated on single borrower, borrower group, industry and longer tenure exposure to a borrower group. Exposure to top 10 borrowers and borrower groups, exposure to capital market segment and unsecured exposures for the ICICI Group (consolidated) is reported to the Board level committees on a quarterly basis. Limits on countries and bank counterparties have also been stipulated.
Definition and classification of non-performing assets (NPAs)
The Bank classifies its advances (loans and debentures in the nature of an advance) into performing and non-performing loans in accordance with the extant RBI guidelines.
A NPA is defined as a loan or an advance where:
| i) | interest and/or installment of principal remain overdue for more than 90 days in respect of a term loan. Any amount due to the bank under any credit facility is ‘overdue’ if it is not paid on the due date fixed by the Bank; |
| ii) | if the interest due and charged during a quarter is not serviced fully within 90 days from the end of the quarter; |
| iii) | the account remains ‘out of order’ in respect of an overdraft/cash credit facility continuously for 90 days. An account is treated as ‘out of order’ if: |
| a. | the outstanding balance remains continuously in excess of the sanctioned limit/drawing power; or |
| b. | where the outstanding balance in the principal operating account is less than the sanctioned limit/drawing power, but there are no credits continuously for 90 days as on the date of the balance sheet; or |
| c. | credits in the account are not enough to cover the interest debited during the accounting period; or |
| d. | drawings have been permitted in the account for a continuous period of 90 days based on drawing power computed on the basis of stock statements that are more than three months old even though the unit may be working or the borrower's financial position is satisfactory; or |
| e. | the regular/ad hoc credit limits have not been reviewed/renewed within 180 days from the due date/date of ad hoc sanction. |
| iv) | a bill purchased/discounted by the Bank remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days; |
| v) | interest and/or installment of principal in respect of an agricultural loan remains overdue for two crop seasons for short duration crops and one crop season for long duration crops; |
| vi) | In respect of a securitisation transaction undertaken in terms of the RBI guidelines on securitisation, the amount of liquidity facility remains outstanding for more than 90 days; |
| vii) | In respect of derivative transactions, if the overdue receivables representing positive mark-to-market value of a derivative contract, remain unpaid for a period of 90 days from the specified due date for payment. |
Further, NPAs are classified into sub-standard, doubtful and loss assets based on the criteria stipulated by RBI. A sub-standard asset is one, which has remained a NPA for a period less than or equal to 12 months. An asset is classified as doubtful if it has remained in the sub-standard category for more than 12 months. A loss asset is one where loss has been identified by the Bank or internal or external auditors or during RBI inspection but the amount has not been written off fully.
Restructured assets
As per RBI guidelines, a fully secured standard loan can be restructured by rescheduling principal repayments and/or the interest element, but must be separately disclosed as a restructured loan in the year of restructuring. Similar guidelines apply to restructuring of substandard and doubtful loans.
A sub-standard asset, which has been restructured, will be upgraded to the standard category only after a satisfactory performance of the borrower over a period of time. The RBI has specified the period to be one year from date when the instalment/ interest falls due as per the rescheduled scheme.
| a. | Credit risk exposures (March 31, 2011) |
Credit risk exposures (excluding specific risk on available-for-sale and held-for-trading portfolio) include all credit exposures as per RBI guidelines on exposure norms and investments in the held-to-maturity category. Domestic sovereign exposures that are risk-weighted at zero percent and exposures to regulatory capital instruments of subsidiaries that are deducted from the capital funds have been excluded.

| 6. | CREDIT RISK: PORTFOLIOS SUBJECT TO THE STANDARDISED APPROACH |
The Bank uses the standardised approach to measure the capital requirements for credit risk. As per the standardised approach, regulatory capital requirements for credit risk on corporate exposures is measured based on external credit ratings assigned by External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAI) specified by RBI in its guidelines on Basel II. As stipulated by RBI, the risk weights for resident corporate exposures are assessed based on the external ratings assigned by domestic ECAI and the risk weights for non-resident corporate exposures are assessed based on the external ratings assigned by international ECAI. For this purpose, the domestic ECAI specified by RBI are CRISIL Limited, Credit Analysis & Research Limited, ICRA Limited and Fitch India and the international ECAI specified by RBI are Standard & Poor’s, Moody's and Fitch. Further, the RBI’s Basel II framework stipulates guidelines on the scope and eligibility of application of external ratings. The Bank reckons the external rating on the exposure for risk weighting purposes, if the external rating assessment complies with the guidelines stipulated by RBI.
The key aspects of the Bank’s external ratings application framework are as follows:
| • | The Bank uses only those ratings that have been solicited by the counterparty. |
| • | Foreign sovereign and foreign bank exposures are risk-weighted based on issuer ratings assigned to them. |
| • | The risk-weighting of corporate exposures based on the external credit ratings includes the following: |
| i. | The Bank reckons external ratings of corporates either at the credit facility level or at the borrower (issuer) level. The Bank considers the facility rating where both the facility and the borrower rating are available given the more specific nature of the facility credit assessment. |
| ii. | The Bank ensures that the external rating of the facility/borrower has been reviewed at least once by the ECAI during the previous 15 months and is in force on the date of its application. |
| iii. | When a borrower is assigned a rating that maps to a risk weight of 150%, then this rating is applied on all the unrated facilities of the borrower and risk weighted at 150%. |
| iv. | Unrated short-term claim on counterparty is assigned a risk weight of at least one level higher than the risk weight applicable to the rated short term claim on that counterparty. |
| • | The RBI guidelines outline specific conditions for facilities that have multiple ratings. In this context, the lower rating, where there are two ratings and the second-lowest rating where there are three or more ratings are used for a given facility. |
| b. | Credit exposures by risk weights |
At March 31, 2011, the credit exposures subject to the Standardised approach after adjusting for credit risk mitigation by risk weights were as follows:
Rs. in billion
| Exposure Category | Amount outstanding1 |
| Less than 100% risk weight | 2,089.30 |
| 100% risk weight | 3,756.44 |
| More than 100% risk weight | 326.95 |
| Deducted from capital | 37.06 |
Total2 | 6,209.75 |
| 1. | Credit risk exposures include all exposures, as per RBI guidelines on exposure norms, subject to credit risk and investments in held-to-maturity category. Claims on domestic sovereign which are risk-weighted at 0% and regulatory capital instruments of subsidiaries which are deducted from the capital funds have been excluded. The credit exposures have been adjusted for credit risk mitigation. |
| 2. | Includes all entities considered for Basel II capital adequacy computation. |
| 7. | CREDIT RISK MITIGATION |
| a. | Collateral management and credit risk mitigation |
The Bank has a Board approved policy framework for collateral management and credit risk mitigation techniques, which include among other aspects guidelines on acceptable types of collateral, ongoing monitoring of collateral including the frequency and basis of valuation and application of credit risk mitigation techniques.
Collateral management
Overview
The Bank defines collateral as the assets or rights provided to the Bank by the borrower or a third party in order to secure a credit facility. The Bank would have the rights of secured creditor in respect of the assets/contracts offered as security for the obligations of the borrower/obligor. The Bank ensures that the underlying documentation for the collateral provides the bank appropriate rights over the collateral or other forms of credit enhancement including the right to liquidate, retain or take legal possession of it in a timely manner in the event of default by the counter party. The Bank also endeavours to keep the assets provided as security to the Bank under adequate insurance during the tenor of the Bank’s exposure. The collateral value is monitored periodically.
Collateral valuation
As stipulated by the RBI guidelines, the Bank uses the comprehensive approach for collateral valuation. Under this approach, the Bank reduces its credit exposure to counterparty when calculating its capital requirements to the extent of risk mitigation provided by the eligible collateral as specified in the Basel II guidelines.
The Bank adjusts the value of any collateral received to adjust for possible future fluctuations in the value of the collateral in line with the requirements specified by RBI guidelines. These adjustments, also referred to as ‘haircuts’, to produce volatility-
adjusted amounts for collateral, are reduced from the exposure to compute the capital charge based on the applicable risk weights.
Types of collateral taken by the Bank
The Bank determines the appropriate collateral for each facility based on the type of product and risk profile of the counterparty. In case of corporate and small and medium enterprises financing, fixed assets are generally taken as security for long tenor loans and current assets for working capital finance. For project finance, security of the assets of the borrower and assignment of the underlying project contracts is generally taken. In addition, in some cases, additional security such as pledge of shares, cash collateral, charge on receivables with an escrow arrangement and guarantees is also taken.
For retail products, the security to be taken is defined in the product policy for the respective products. Housing loans and automobile loans are secured by the security of the property/automobile being financed. The valuation of the properties is carried out by an empanelled valuer at the time of sanctioning the loan.
The Bank also offers products which are primarily based on collateral such as shares, specified securities, warehoused commodities and gold jewellery. These products are offered in line with the approved product policies which include types of collateral, valuation and margining.
The Bank extends unsecured facilities to clients for certain products such as derivatives, credit cards and personal loans. The limits with respect to unsecured facilities have been approved by the Board of Directors.
The decision on the type and quantum of collateral for each transaction is taken by the credit approving authority as per the credit approval authorisation approved by the Board of Directors. For facilities provided as per approved product policies (retail products, loan against shares etc.), collateral is taken in line with the policy.
Credit risk mitigation techniques
The RBI guidelines on Basel II allow the following credit risk mitigants to be recognised for regulatory capital purposes:
| • | Eligible financial collateral which include cash (deposited with the Bank), gold (including bullion and jewellery, subject to collateralised jewellery being benchmarked to 99.99% purity), securities issued by Central and State Governments, Kisan Vikas Patra, National Savings Certificates, life insurance policies with a declared surrender value issued by an insurance company which is regulated by the insurance sector regulator, certain debt securities, mutual fund units where daily net asset value is available in public domain and the mutual fund is limited to investing in the instruments listed above. |
| • | On-balance sheet netting, which is confined to loans/advances and deposits, where banks have legally enforceable netting arrangements, involving specific lien with proof of documentation. |
| • | Guarantees, where these are direct, explicit, irrevocable and unconditional. Further, the eligible guarantors would comprise: |
| • | Sovereigns, sovereign entities stipulated in the RBI guidelines on Basel II, bank and primary dealers with a lower risk weight than the counterparty; and |
| • | Other entities, which are rated AA(-) or better. |
The Bank reckons the permitted credit risk mitigants for obtaining capital relief only when the credit risk mitigant fulfills the conditions stipulated for eligibility and legal certainty by RBI in its guidelines on Basel II.
Concentrations within credit risk mitigation
The RBI guidelines, among its conditions for eligible credit risk mitigants, require that there should not be a material positive correlation between the credit quality of the counterparty and the value of the collateral being considered. RMG conducts the assessment of the aspect of material positive correlation on cases referred to it and accordingly evaluates the eligibility of the credit risk mitigant for obtaining capital relief. Currently, the Bank does not have any concentration risk within credit risk mitigation.
| b. | Portfolio covered by eligible financial collateral (March 31, 2011) |
| | Amount1 |
| Exposures fully covered by eligible financial collateral, after application of haircut | 77.62 |
| Exposures fully covered by eligible corporate guarantees | 15.25 |
| 1. | Includes all entities considered for Basel II capital adequacy computation. |
The processes for capital computation and credit risk mitigation based on Basel II guidelines are consistent across subsidiaries of the Bank.
| a. | Securitisation objectives, roles played by the Bank and the risks |
Objectives
The Bank’s primary objective of securitisation activities is to increase the efficiency of capital and enhance the return on capital employed by diversifying sources of funding.
Roles played by the Bank
In securitisation transactions backed by assets either originated by the Bank or third parties, the Bank plays the following major roles:
| • | Underwriter: allowing un-subscribed portions of securitised debt issuances, if any to devolve on the Bank, with the intent of selling at a later stage. |
| • | Investor/trader/market-maker: acquiring investment grade securitised debt instruments backed by financial assets originated by third parties for purposes of investment/trading/market-making with the aim of developing an active secondary market in securitised debt. |
| • | Structurer: structuring appropriately in a form and manner suitably tailored to meet investor requirements while being compliant with extant regulations. |
| • | Provider of liquidity facilities: addressing temporary mismatches on account of the timing differences between the receipt of cash flows from the underlying performing assets and the fulfillment of obligations to the beneficiaries. |
| • | Provider of credit enhancement facilities: addressing delinquencies associated with the underlying assets, i.e. bridging the gaps arising out of credit considerations between cash flows received/collected from the underlying assets and the fulfillment of repayment obligations to the beneficiaries. |
| • | Provider of collection and processing services: collecting and/or managing receivables from underlying obligors, contribution from the investors to securitisation transactions, making payments to counterparties/appropriate beneficiaries, reporting the collection efficiency and other performance parameters and providing other services relating to collections and payments as may be required for the purpose of the transactions. |
Risks in securitisation
The major risks inherent in the securitised transactions are:
| • | Credit risk: Risk arising on account of payment delinquencies from underlying obligors/borrowers in the assigned pool. |
| i) | Liquidity risk: Risk arising on account of lack of secondary market to provide ready exit options to the investors/participants. |
| ii) | Interest rate/currency risk: Mark to market risks arising on account of interest rate/currency fluctuations. |
| i) | Co-mingling risk: Risk arising on account of comingling of funds belonging to investor(s) with that of the originator and/or collection and processing servicer when there exist a time lag between collecting amounts due from the obligors and payment made to the investors. |
| ii) | Performance risk: Risk arising on account of the inability of a Collection and Processing Agent to collect monies from the underlying obligors as well as operational difficulties in processing the payments. |
| iii) | Regulatory and legal risk: Risk arising on account of |
| | • | non-compliance of the transaction structures with the extant applicable laws which may result in the transaction(s) being rendered invalid; |
| | • | conflict between the provisions of the transaction documents with those of the underlying financial facility agreements; and |
| | • | non-enforceability of security/claims due to imperfection in execution of the underlying facility agreements with the borrower(s). |
| • | Reputation risk: Risk arising on account of |
| | • | rating downgrade of a securitised instrument due to unsatisfactory performance of the underlying asset pool; and |
| | • | inappropriate practices followed by the collection and processing agent. |
In addition to the above, securitised assets are exposed to prepayment and pipeline and warehousing risks. Prepayment risk arises on account of prepayment of dues by obligors/borrowers in the assigned pool either in part or full. Pipeline and warehousing risks refer to the event where originating banks are unable to off-load assets, which were originated with an intention of selling thus potentially exposing them to losses arising on declining values of these assets. The Bank does not follow the “originate to distribute” model and hence is not exposed to the pipeline and warehousing risks.
Processes in place to monitor change in risks of securitisation exposures
The Bank has established appropriate risk management processes to monitor the risks on securitisation exposures, which include:
i) Monitoring credit risk
The Bank in the capacity of collection and processing agent prepares monthly performance reports which are circulated to investors/assignees/rating agencies. The securitised pools are continuously monitored and those requiring attention are subjected to specific interventions (e.g. focused collection efforts in affected geographies etc.) to improve their performance.
The risk assessment of the pools is done continuously by the rating agencies based on amortisation level, collection efficiency, credit enhancement utilisation levels and credit cover available for balance deal tenor.
ii) Monitoring market risk
The Bank ascertains market value of the securitisation exposures based on extant norms which is compared with their book value to assess the marked to market impact of these exposures monthly.
Bank’s policy governing the use of credit risk mitigation to mitigate the risks retained through securitisation exposures
The Bank has not used credit risk mitigants to mitigate retained risks.
| b. | Summary of the Bank’s accounting policies for securitisation activities |
Whether the transactions are treated as sales or financings
The Bank transfers commercial and consumer loans through securitisation transactions. The transferred loans are de-recognised and gains/losses are accounted for only if the Bank surrenders the rights to benefits specified in the underlying securitised loan contract. Recourse and servicing obligations are accounted for net of provisions.
In accordance with the RBI guidelines for securitisation of standard assets, with effect from February 1, 2006, the Bank accounts for any loss arising from securitisation immediately at the time of sale and the profit/premium arising from securitisation is amortised over the life of the securities issued or to be issued by the special purpose vehicle to which the assets are sold.
Methods and key assumptions (including inputs) applied in valuing positions retained or purchased
The valuation of the retained interests in the form of pass-through certificates (PTCs) is based on the projected cash flows as received from the issuer, which are present valued using the Yield-to-Maturity (YTM) rates, which are computed with a mark-up (reflecting associated credit risk) over the YTM rates for government securities as published by Fixed Income Money Market and Derivatives Association (FIMMDA).
The retained/purchased interests in the form of subordinate contributions are carried at book value.
There is no change in the methods and key assumptions applied in valuing retained/purchased interests from previous year.
Policies for recognising liabilities on the balance sheet for arrangements that could require the bank to provide financial support for securitised assets
The Bank provides credit enhancements in the form of cash deposits or guarantees in its securitisation transactions. The Bank makes appropriate provisions for any delinquency losses assessed at the time of sale as well as over the life of the securitisation transactions in accordance with the RBI guidelines.
| c. | Rating of securitisation exposures |
Ratings obtained from ECAIs stipulated by RBI (as stated above) are used for computing capital requirements for securisation exposures. Where the external ratings of the Bank’s investment in securitised debt instruments/PTCs are at least partly based on unfunded support provided by the Bank, such investments are treated as unrated and deducted from the capital funds.
