Chapter - 1
INTRODUCTION
The composition of assets and liabilities largely decide the solvency, liquidity
and profitability of a corporate entity, more so that of a financial institution. The
components of the liabilities determine the cost of funds. The mix of the assets
influences the return on investment. Therefore the asset liability management assumes
great importance; also, it is absolutely necessary to prevent the Asset - liability
mismatch, both in term of maturity (tenure) and relative costs (minimum or interest
differential) particularly in the control of increasing pressure on margins. In the case
of state financial corporation, the instrumentality of Business Plan and Resources
Forecast (BPRF), and effective treasury management techniques can be, gainfully
utilized to make correction in the existing imbalances in the resource mix and the
avoidable misalignments between the profile or liabilities and the portfolio of assets.
While BPRF is introduced at the instance of IDBI & SIDBI.
The Asset - Liability management broadly deals with both sides of the balance
sheet. It is primarily concerned with the market risk that arises from a financial
institutions structural position. These are interest rate and liquidity risks. The interest
rate risk arises from the possibility of change in profits caused by fluctuations in
interest rank. The delay in recoveries, a principle cause of liquidity risk, leads to
possibility.
Opportunities and damage due to honoring payment commitments. Both these
risks are obviously the result of mismatch between the Financial Institutions / Banks
as Assets and Liabilities. In case of banks of Financial Institutions, the ALM positions
are relatively liquid. Usually the banking institutions hold the assets and liabilities
until they mature. This practice of course is changing of late. It is increasingly
becoming to bundle banking products such as loans into marketable securities and
then sell them or trade them with other banks as well as other traditional and new
players in the financial markets.
1
This is especially true of asset-based securities i.e., mortgage loans,
securitization is a new phenomenon in the Indian context. But it has a vast scope. It
can make or mm the future of a financial institution. The stability, profitability,
growth and image of Financial Institutions largely depend upon the ability and skill
with which it can conduct its ALM.
Asset - liability management practices which effect from April 1, 1999. While
guidelines on management of credit risk, market risk and operational risk will be
issued later on. The RBI has issued guidelines for the introduction of Asset - liability
management (ALM) as a part of the risk management and control system in banks.
They are intended to form the basis for initiating collection, compilations and analysis
of dates required tu support the ALM System.
Over the last few years, the Indian Financial System markets have witnessed vide
ranging changes at a fast pace. Intense competition for business involving both the
assets and liabilities together with increasing volatility in the domestic interest rates as
well as foreign exchange rates, has brought pressure on the management of banks to
maintain a good balance among measures. The bank management has to base their
business decision on a dynamic and integrated risk management system and process,
driven by corporate strategy. The banks are exposed to several major risks in the
course of the business credit risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, and
equity/commodity price risk. Liquidity and Operational risks. It is against this
background that the RBI guidelines relating to AL:!v1 focus on interest rate and
liquidity risk-management system in banks, which form part: of the ALM function.
The initial thrust of the ALM function would be to enforce the risk management
discipline that is, managing offer assessing the risk involved. The objective of good
risk Management programs should be that their programs evolve into a strategy tool
for bank management.
2
In the normal course, Financial Institutions are exposed to credit and market risks
in view of the asset liability transformation. With liberalization in Indian Financial
markets, over the last four years and growing integration of domestic markets and the
entry of MNC's for meeting the credit needs of not only the corporate but also the
retail segments, the risks associated with Financial Institutions operations have
become complex and large, requiring
strategic management. Financial Institutions are now operating in a fairly deregulate
1. environment and are required to determine interest rates on deposits, they can also
offer deposits prescribe by the R 131: they can also offer advances on dynamic basis.
The interest rates on investments of 1:1 –in government and other securities are also
now market related. Intense competition for business involving both assets and
liabilities has brought pressure on the management of Financial Institutions to
maintain a good balance among spreads, profitability and long-term liability.
Imprudent liquidity management can put Financial Institutions earnings and
reputation at great risk. The management of Financial Institutions have to base their
business decisions on a dynamic and integrated risk management system and process
driven by' corporate strategy, Financial Institutions are exposed to several major risks
in the course of their business; credit risk, interest rate risk, equity/commodity price
risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. It is, therefore, important that Financial
Institutions introduce effective risk measure management systems that address the
issues relating to interest rate and liquidity risks.

NEED FOR THE STUDY:
In the event of highly volatile interest rates and liquidity crisis, Financial
Institutions/banks face the problem of real valuation of their assets and liabilities. This
Mismatch of assets and liabilities may produced an effect on calculation of real worth
of the business. There are some methods adopted by banks/financial institutions in
order to cover the problems of liquidity mismatch and interest rate risk. The present
study focused such measures taken by APSFC for its Asset - Liability management.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:
To study the ALM procedure in APSFC
To study and evaluate the performance of APSFC in managing liquidity risk and interest rate risk management.
To study the various schemes and activities of APSFC
4
METHODOLOGY OF THE STUDY:
Description of the method:
To fulfill the above objectives mainly secondary data is used by collecting the records of APSFC and other published data like journals, books, internet etc…
The financial statement of different information of APSFC are collected and used for analysis to examine how the APSFC is managing it’s assets and liabilities
The primary information also collected through discussion with officers and managers of APSFC to get first hand information about risk, return, solvency and liquidity, leverage positions etc.

Indian Financial System By 'M. Y.KHAN'
Asset Liabilities management by different authors
Websites pertaining to asset liability management
5
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
ALM in relation of SFCs covers a wide gamut of both sources and
applications of funds. The drying up of some of the conventional sources, the choice
of the basket, rising cost of funds available and the associated stringent conditions,
growing competition for the access to the sources and the need for arresting the
erosion of net worth are the main challenges in managing the liabilities. On the assets
side, the key issues are the resource allocations, the assets portfolio-mix, the yields,
the recoveries, NPA management, write off policies and above all the market and
credit risk management.
LIMITATIONS OFTHE STUDY:
In spite of utmost care taken for the smooth conduct of study while preparing this
project; this report suffers from certain setbacks.
1. This is the study conducted with in short period, so it may not be covering all
the aspects in detail.
2. The study has made an attempt for evaluating the performance of APSFC in
managing liquidity risk management and interest rate risk management.
3. Due to limitations of the sources the data collection could not be adequate.

CHAPTER -3
ASSETS LIABILITY MANAGEMENT (ALM)
Asset - liability management practices which effect from April 1, 1999. While
guidelines on management of credit risk, market risk and operational risk will be
issued later on. The RBI has issued guidelines for the introduction of Asset - liability
management (ALM) as a part of the risk management and control system in banks.
They are intended to form the basis for initiating collection, compilations and analysis
of dates required tu support the ALM System.
Over the last few years, the Indian Financial System markets have witnessed vide
ranging changes at a fast pace. Intense competition for business involving both the
assets and liabilities together with increasing volatility in the domestic interest rates as
well as foreign exchange rates, has brought pressure on the management of banks to
maintain a good balance among measures. The bank management has to base their
business decision on a dynamic and integrated risk management system and process,
driven by corporate strategy. The banks are exposed to several major risks in the
course of the business credit risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, and
equity/commodity price risk. Liquidity and Operational risks. It is against this
background that the RBI guidelines relating to AL:!v1 focus on interest rate and
liquidity risk-management system in banks, which form part: of the ALM function.
The initial thrust of the ALM function would be to enforce the risk management
discipline that is, managing offer assessing the risk involved. The objective of good
risk Management programs should be that their programs evolve into a strategy tool
for bank management. In the normal course, Financial Institutions are exposed to
credit and market risks in view of the asset liability transformation.
26
With liberalization in Indian Financial markets, over the last four years and
growing integration of domestic markets and the entry of MNC's for meeting the
credit needs of not only the corporate but also the retail segments, the risks associated
with Financial Institutions operations have become complex and large, requiring
strategic management. Financial Institutions are now operating in a fairly deregulate
1. environment and are required to determine interest rates on deposits, they can also
offer deposits prescribe by the R 131: they can also offer advances on dynamic basis.
The interest rates on investments of 1:1 –in government and other securities are also
now market related. Intense competition for business involving both assets and
liabilities has brought pressure on the management of Financial Institutions to
maintain a good balance among spreads, profitability and long-term liability.
Imprudent liquidity management can put Financial Institutions earnings and
reputation at great risk. The management of Financial Institutions have to base their
business decisions on a dynamic and integrated risk management system and process
driven by' corporate strategy, Financial Institutions are exposed to several major risks
in the course of their business; credit risk, interest rate risk, equity/commodity price
risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. It is, therefore, important that Financial
Institutions introduce effective risk measure management systems that address the
issues relating to interest rate and liquidity risks.
Financial institutions need to address these risks in a structural manner by upgrading their
risk management and adopting more comprehensive asset-liability management (ALM)
practices than has been done hitherto. ALM, among other functions, is also concerned with
risk management and provides a comprehensive and dynamic framework for measuring,
monitoring and managing liquidity and interest rates and equity and commodity price risks of
27
major operators in the financial system, which needs to be closely integrated with the
Financial Institutions business strategy. It involves assessment of various types of risks and
altering the asset-liability portfolio in a dynamic order to manage risks. The RBI guidelines
relate to interest rate and liquidity risks management system in Financial Institutions, which
form parts of the Asset -liability management (ALM) function. The initial focus of the ALM
function would be to enforce the risk management discipline that is managing business after
assessing the risks involved. The objective of good risk management systems should
be that these systems would evolve into a strategic tool for financial institution management.
The ALM Process rests in these pillars
1. ALM Information System
A. Management Information Systems
B. Information availability, accuracy. adequacy and expediency
2. ALM Organization
A. Structure and Responsibilities
B. Level of top Management involvement
3. ALM Process
A. Risk Parameters
B. Risk identification
C. Risk Measurement
D. Risk Management
E. Risk policies and tolerance levels.
28
ALM INFORMATION SYSTEM
ALM has to support by a management philosophy that clearly specifies the risk
policies and tolerance limits. This framework needs to be built on sound technology
with the necessary information system as backup. Thus information is the key to the
ALM process. It however, recognized that varied business profiles of Financial
Institutions in the public and private sectors do not make the adoption on a uniform
ALM system for all Financial Institutions feasible.
These are various method prevalent worldwide for measuring risks. These range
from the simple gap statement to extremely sophisticated and dam intensive risk
adjusted profitability measurement methods. However, though the central element for
die entire ALM exercise, is- the availability of adequate and accurate information
with expedience and the systems existing some of the major Financial Institutions do
not generate information in the manner required for ALM. Collecting accurate data in
a timely manner would be the biggest challenge before the NBFC's particularly those
lacking full-scale computerization. However, the introduction of a base information
system of risk management, risk measurement and monitoring has to be addressed
urgently.
Financial Institutions have heterogeneous organization structures, capital base,
asset size, management profiles, business activities and geographical spread. Some of
them have a large number of branches and agents/brokers, where as some have
unitary offices. Considering the large number of branches and the lack of adequate
support system to collect information requires for the ALM. Which analysis
information on the basis of residual maturity and reprising pattern of liabilities and
assets, it would take time for Financial Institutions in the present state, to get the
requisite information. With respect to investment portfolio and funds management, in
view of the centralized nature of the functions, it would refined overtime as the
Financial Institutions management gains experience of conduction business within an
ALM framework the spread of computerization will also help Financial Institutions in
accessing data.
29
The business issues than ALCO would consider, inter, should include product
pricing for both deposits and advances, desired maturity profile and mix of the
incremental assets and liabilities, prevailing interest rates offered by other peer
NBFCs for similar services/products and so on. In addition to monitoring the risk
levels, the ALCO should review the result of and progress in implementation of the
decision made in the previous meeting. The ALCO should also articulate the current
interest rate view of the Frs and base its decision for future business strategy on this
view. With respect to the funding policy, for instance, its responsibility would be to
decide on the source and mix of liabilities or sale of assets. Towards this end, it
should develop a view regarding the future direction of interest rate movements and
decide on funding mixes between fixes vs. floating rate funds, wholesale vs. retail
deposits, money markets vs. capital markets, funding domestic vs. foreign currency
funding, and so on. Individual Financial Institutions should decide the frequency of
holding their ALCO meetings.
COMPOSITION OF ALCO
The size (number of members) of ALCO would depend on the size of the each
institution, business mix and organizational complexity. To ensure commitment of the
Top management and timely response to market: dynamics the
CEO/CMD/President/Director should head the committee. The chief of investment,
credit resources management/planning funds management/treasury. International
Business and Economics research can be members of the committee. In addition, the
head of the technology division should also be an invitee building up of MIS and
related computerization. Large FI may even have sub-committee and support groups.
COMMITTEE OF DIRECTORS
The management committee or any other specific committee constituted by the
board of directors should oversee the implementation of the system and review its
function periodically.
30
The scope of the ALM functions can be described as follows:
1. Liquidity risk management
2. Management of market risks
3. Funding and capital planning
4. Profit planning and growth projection and
5. Forecasting and analyzing 'what if scenario' and preparation of contingency
plans.
DEFINITION OF RISK
Risk is the potential loss of an asset due to different factors.
IDENTIFICATION OF RISK
ALM in a commercial bank of Financial Institutions is to decide what should be
the risk measurement parameters that the management would need to focus on. The
appropriateness of risk management parameters depends upon the degree of volatility
in the operating environment, availability of supporting data and expertise within
bank/Financial Institutions and the expected market and business developments.
Generally, these are two major parameters, which banks/Financial Institutions all over
the world employ to measure their balance sheet risks viz., risk to the net interest
income and market value portfolio equity.
While the former seeks to measure the risk to the immediate profits that emanate
from cash flow mismatches occurring in the accounting years, the latter measures the
risk arising out of the maturity mismatches in its assets and liabilities over the future
years. These two parameters together attend to the short term and long-term balance
sheet risk.
31
MEASURING THE RISK
Due to difficulty in measuring interest rate risk and also the complexes the present
in the understanding of the concept measurement of interest rate risk assumes greater
importance in the ALM function. It has observed that banks risk exposure depends
upon the volatility of interest rates and asset prices in the financial market, the
Financial Institutions maturity/gaps, the duration to measure and interest rate
elasticity of its assets and liabilities and the liability of the management to measure
and control the exposure. In the management of Financial Institutions assets and
liabilities, interest risk management lays the foundation for a good ALM.
RISK ANALYSIS
Interest rate risk can be analyzed in the following four methods.
1. Gap Analysis
2. Duration Analysis
3. Value at risk
4. Simulation
Gap analysis is the most important basic technique used in analyzing interest rate
risk. It measures the difference between financial institution assets and liabilities and
off balance sheet position which will be re priced or will mature within a
predetermine period. (Gap is the difference between rate sensitive assets minus rate
sensitive liabilities)
32
COMPONENTS OF RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk management may be defined as the process of identifying and controlling risk. It is
also described at times as the responsibility of the management to identify measure, monitor
and control various items of risk associated with Financial Institutions position and transaction.
The process of risk management has three clearly identifiable steps, viz., risk identification, risk
measurement and risk control.
CONTROL RISK
After identification and assessment of risk factor, the next step involved is risk
control, the major alternatives available in risk control are
1. Avoid the exposure
2. Reduce the impact by deducing frequency of severity
3. Avoid concentration in risky area
4. Transfer the risk to another party
5. Employ risk management instruments to cover the risks
RISK IN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
Risks in financial institutions are many and a broadly classifies into three
categories
They are as follows:
1. Balance sheet risks
2. Transaction risks
3. Operating and liquidity risk
33
I. BALANCE SHEET RISK
The balance sheet generally arise out of the mismatch between currency, maturity
and interest rate structure of assets and liabilities resulting in
1. Interest rate mismatch risk
2. Liquidity risk
3. Foreign exchange risk
1. INTEREST RATE MISMATCH RISK
It is the impact of the change in interest rate on the net interest income of the bank
and value of the assets and liabilities. For example,
(a) When fixed deposits are accepted on the fixed rate basis and the amount is lent
on floating rate basis, any download revision of interest rate on advances will
result in the reduction of income stream for the bank Financial Institutions.
But interest rate on deposits can be changed only when they fall due or pre
closed by the depositor.
(b) A bonds (investments asset of the bank) price falls down as interest rate rise.
2. LIQUIDITY RISK
Liquidity is the potential inability to meet the banks/Financial Institutions as they
become due. It rises when Financial Institutions are unable to generate cash to cope
with the declines in deposits or increase in loans. It originates the mismatches in the
maturity of assets and liabilities as well as uncertainty of future cash flows.
3.FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK
The risk that a long (over bought) or short (over sold) position in the foreign
currency might have to be closed out at a. loss duet to an adverse movement in
exchange rates.
34
II. TRANSACTIONS RISKS
The transaction risk essentially involves two types of risks. They are
1. Credit risk
2. Price Risk
l. MARKET RISK
Market risk may be defined as the possibility of the loss to financial institution
caused by changes in market variables. The financial institution defines market risk as
the risk that the value on and off balance sheet position will be adversely affected by
movements in the equity and interest rate of markets, currency, exchange rate and
Commodity prices.
2. ISSUER-RISK
The financial strength and standing of the institute/sovereign that has issued the
instrument can affect price as well as reliability. The risk involved with the
instruments issued by corporate bodies would be an ideal example.
3. INSTRUMENT RISK
The nature of instrument creates risks for the investor. With many hybrid
instruments in the market and with fluctuations in market conditions, the prices of
various instruments ma react differently form one another.
35
MANAGEMENT OF LIQUIDITY RISK AND INTEREST RATE
RISK
LIQUIDITY RISK
Measuring and managing liquidity needs are vital for the effective operations of
financial institution. By ensuring a Financial Institutions ability to meet its liabilities
as then become due liquidity management can reduce the probability of an adverse
situation developing. The institution of liquidity transcends individual institutions, as
liquidity shortfall in one institution can have repercussion on the entire system. The
Financial Institutions management should measure not only the liquidity position of
Financial Institutions 011 an ongoing basis but also examine how liquidity
requirements are likely to evolve under different assumptions. Experience show that
assets commonly considered as liquid, like government securities and other money
market instrument, could also become liquid when the market and players are
unidirectional. Therefore, liquidity has to tracked through, the use of the maturity or
cash flow mismatches. For measuring and managing net funding requirements, the
use 01' maturity ladder and calculation of cumulative surplus or deficit of funds at
selected maturity dates are adopted as a standard tool.
The time buckets are distributed as under:
Less than one month
Over 1 month to 3 months
Over 3 months to 6 months
Over 6 months to 12 months
Less than or equal to 1 year
More than 1 year and up to 3 years
More than 3 years and up to 5 years
36
More than 5 years and up to 7 years
More than 7 years and up to 10 years
More than 10 years
Financial Institution holding public deposits are required to invest up to a
prescribed percentage (15 % as on date) of their public deposits in approval securities,
in terms of the liquid asset requirements of sections 45-IB of the RBI Act, 1934.
Financial Institutions ,Fi' required to invest up to 80 percent of their deposit in the
manner prescribed in the RB 1 directors issued under the act, as detailed in an earlier
section. There is no such requirement for Financial Institutions that are not holding
public deposit~. Thus various Financial Institutions including SFCs would be holding
in their investment portfolio, securities that could be broadly classifiable as
'mandatory securities' (under obligation of law) and' non-mandate securities'. In case
of Financial Institutions not holding public deposits, all the investment and in GISC.
Financial Institutions holding public deposits, the surplus securities would fall in
the category of non mandatory securities.
Financial Institutions holding public deposits may place mandatory securities in
any time – bucket suitable to them. The listed non-mandatory securities may be
placed in any of the less than one month, over 1 month to 3 months, "Over 3 months
to 6 months" and "over () months to 12 months" buckets, depending upon the
defeasance period proposed b Financial Institutions.
Unlisted non-mandatory securities (e.g., equity shares, securities without a fixed term of
maturity and so on) may be placed in the "more than 10 years" buckets, where as unlisted non-
mandatory securities having a fixed term of maturity may be placed in the relevant time
bucket, as per residual maturity. The mandatory securities and listed securities may be marked
to market for the purpose of the ALM System. Unlisted securities may be valued as per RBIs
prudential norms directions. The statements of structural liquidity may be prepared by placing
all cash inflows and outflows in the maturity ladder according to the expected timing of cash
flows. A maturity liability is cash outflows while a maturity asset is a cash inflow while
determining the likely cash inflows/outflows.
37
Liquidity Problems may be created due to any of the following reasons:
a) Funding Risk:
Failure to replace net outflow of funds weather due to withdrawal of retail
deposits on non-renewal of wholesale deposits.
b) Time Risk: Non-receipt of expected inflow of funds e.g. Where borrowers fails to
meet their commitments besides irregularly in advances which present delay in
fulfilling commitments by borrowers the growth of non-performing assets also leads
to immediate liquidity problem. Non-performing assets cut into profitability as well.
ALM process if it fails to take NPA problems cannot succeed.
c) Call Risk:
It represents sudden demand for money owing to contingent become due. If
contingent liabilities start developing the may create huge drain on liquidity.
d) Opportunity Risk:
A Financial Institution can only grow if its customers are also prospering (succeeding)
request for funds from important and valuable clients can only be profitably serviced
if adequate liquidity is available.
Approaches to control Liquidity
1. Maintenance of adequate liquidity remains sinquonon for banks are other
financial institutions.
2. Once maturity of assets exceeds those of liabilities there is inevitable liquidity
risk.
3. Minimum criteria to remain liquid is the ability both to meet commitments
when due and to undertake new transactions when desirable.
4. Confidence to rise, mobilize or, roll over the deposits from existing clients.
This confidence may be found to be misplaced when liquidity prevails as
38
existing clients at that stage may be in the grip of liquidity crisis.
5. To avail of Export Refinance Facility (ERF) and Collateralized Lending
Facility (CLF) and the Additional Collateralized Lending Facility (ACLF).
6. Financial Institutions should make a No. of assumptions according to their
Asset –liability profiles,while determining the tolerance levels.Financial
Institutions may take into accounts all relevant factors based on their asset-
liability base, nature of business future strategy & so on. The tolerance levels
should be determines keeping all necessary factors in view and further refined
with experience gained in liquidity mgmt
Currency Risk:
Floating exchange rate arrangement has brought in its wake pronounced volatility,
adding a new dimension to the risk profile of Financial Institutions balance sheets
having foreign assets and liabilities. The increased capital flows across free
economics, following deregulation, have contributed to increase in the volume of
transactions large cross border flows together with volatility has rendered Financial
Institutions balance sheet unable to exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk:
Deregulation of interest rates and the operational flexibility, given to financial institution in
pricing most of the assets and liabilities imply the need for the financial system to hedge the
interest rate risk, defined as the risk where changes in market interest rates might adversely affects
on Financial Institutions financial condition. The change in interest rates affects Financial
Institutions in a larger way. The immediate impact of changes in interest rates is on Financial
Institutions earnings (i.e., reported profits), by changing its net interest income (NIT). A long term
impact of changing interest rates is in Financial Institutions market the of Equity (MVE) or net
worth, as the economic value of Financial Institutions assets, liabilities and off balance sheet
positions yet affected due to various variations in market interest rates. The interest rare risk when
viewed form thee tow perspectives is known as the "earning perspective" and "economic value
perspective" respectively. The risk from the earnings perspective can be measured as changes in
the net interest income (NIT) or net interest margin (NIM). These are many analytical techniques
for measurement and management or interest rate risk, to begin with the traditional gap analysis is
considered as a suitable method to measure the interest rate risk. It is the intention of the RBI to
39
move over to modem techniques.
Financial Institutions should make a number if assumptions according to their asset liability
profiles. While determining the tolerance levels, Financial Institutions may take into account all
factors based on their asset liability base nature of business, future strategy and so on The
tolerance levels should be determined keeping all necessary factors in view and further refined
with experience gained in liquidity management.
In order to enable Financial Institutions to monitor their short-term
liquidity on a dynamic basic over tine horizon spanning from less than one month,
over 1 to 3 months Financial Institutions should estimate their Short term liquidity
profiles on the basis of business projects and other commitments for planning
purpose.
Interest rate risk gaps in time buckets:
Over 1 month to 3 months
Over 3 months to 6 months
Over 6 months to 12 months
Less than or equal to 1 year
More than 1 year and up to 3 years
More than 3 years and up to 5 years
More than 5 years and up to 7 years
More than 7 years and up to 10 years
More than 10 years
The gaps or mismatch risk can be measured by calculation gaps over
different time interval, as on a given data. Gap analysis measures mismatch between
interest rate sensitive liabilities and rate sensitive assets (including off-balance sheet
position).
40
Asset and Liabilities is normally classified as interest sensitive if:
1. With in the time interval under considerations, there is a cash flow.
2. The interest rate resets/reprises contractually during the interval.
3. Dependent on the RBI changes in interest rate/bank rates.
4. It is contractually pre payable or withdrawn before the state maturities.
5. Grouping rate sensitive assets and liabilities and of the-balance sheet positions
into time bucket according to residual maturity or next pricing period should
regenerate the gap report.
6. The gap is the difference between the rate sensitive assets (RSA) and rate
sensitive liabilities (RSL) for each time bucket. The positive gap indicates that
is has more RS than RSL where as the negative gap indicates that I has more
RSL than RSA.
7. The gap reports indicate the whether the institution is in a position 'LO benefit
rising interest rates by having a position gap (rs3>rsl) or weather it is in
position to benefit from declining interest rates by negative gap (rsl>rsa). The
gap a therefore be used as a measure of interest rate sensitive.
Sources of Interest Rate Risk:
As financial intermediaries, financial institutions encounter interest rate risk in
several ways. These can be described as follows:
a) Re-Pricing Risk: This risk arises from holding assets and liabilities with different
principal amounts, maturity or re-pricing dates, there by creating exposure to
unexpected changes in the interest rates.
41
b) Yield Curve Risk: Re-pricing mismatches can also expose a bank to changes in
the slope and shape of the yield curve. Yield curve risk arises when unanticipated
shifts of the yield curve adverse effects on a banks income or underlying economic
value. For instance, the underlying economic value of a long position in 10 years
government bonds hedged by a short position in 5 years government notes could
declare sharply if the yield curve steepens, even if the position is hedged against
parallel movements in the yield curve.
c) Basis Risk: Another important source of interest rate risk (commonly referred as
basis risk) arises from imperfect correlation in the adjustment of the rates and paid on
different instruments with otherwise similar re-pricing characteristics. When interest
rates change, thee differences can give risk to unexpected changes in the cash flows
arid earnings spread between assets and liabilities.
d) Option Risk: An additional and increasingly important source of interest rate risk
arises from the option embedded in many Financial Institutions assets and liabilities.
Formally, an option provides the holder that right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell
in some manner after the cash flow of an instrument of financial contract.
42
GENERAL
The classification of various assets and liabilities into different time - bucket for
preparation of gap reports (liquidity and interest rate sensitive) Financial Institutions
that are better equipped to reasonably estimated the behavioral pattern of various
components of assets and liabilities, on the basis of the past data/empirical studies
could classify them in the appropriate time-buckets, subject to approval from the
ALCO board of directors. A copy of the note approved by the ALCO may be sent to
the registered office of the company is located. These notes may contain 'what if
scenario' analysis wider various assumed conditions and the contingency plans to face
various adverse developments.
The present framework does not capture the impact of premature closures of
deposits and prepayments of loans and advances on the liquidity and interest rate risk
profile on Financial Institutions. The magnitude of premature withdrawal of deposits
at times of volatility in market interest rate is quite substantial. Financial Institution
should therefore evolve a suitable mechanism supported by empirical studies and
behavioral analysis to estimate the further behavioral of assets, liabilities and off-
balance sheet items to changes in market variable and estimate the probabilities of the
options. A scientifically evolved internal transfer pricing model of assigning values on
the basis of current markets rates to funds provided and funds used is an important
component for effective implementation of the ALM system. The transfer price
mechanism can enhance the management of margin, that is lending or credit spread.
The funding or liability spread and mismatch spread. It also helps centralizing
interest rate risk at one place. Which facilities effective control and management of
interest rate risk. A well defined transfer pricing system also provides a nominal
framework for pricing of assets and liabilities.
43
There are four different types of analysis:
1. Gap Analysis"
2. Duration Analysis
3. Trend Analysis
4. Ratio Analysis
l. GAP ANALYSIS:
Maturity/pre-pricing schedules can be used to generate simple indicators of the
interest rate risk sensitivity of both earnings and economic value to changing interest
rates. When this approach is used to asses the interest rate risk of current earnings. It
is typically referred to as gap analysis. Gap analysis was one of the first methods
developed to measure Financial Institutions interest rate risk exposure and continues
to be widely used by Financial Institutions. To evaluate earnings, interest rate
sensitive liabilities in each time band are sub traced from the corresponding interest
rate sensitive asset to produce are pricing gap for that time band. This gap can be
multiplied by as assume change in interest rate to yield an approximation of the
change in the interest rate income that would result from such as interest rate
movement. The size of the interest rate movement used in the analysis can be used on
a variety of factors, including historical experience. Simulation of potential future
interest rate movements and the judgment of bank management. A negative or
liability sensitive gap occurs when liabilities exceeds assets (including off-balance
sheet positions) in a given time band.
This means that an increase in market interest rates could cause a decline in net
interest income. Conversely, a positive or assets-sensitive. Gap implies that the
Financial Institutions net interest rate income could decline as a result of decrease in
the levels of the interest rates.
44
LIMITATIONS OF GAP ANALYSIS:
Although gap analysis is a very commonly used approach to assessing interest rate
risk exposure, it has a number of shortcomings. First, gap analysis does not take it
account of variation in the characteristics of different position with a time band. In
particulars all positions with in a given time band are assumed to mature or reprise
simultaneously a simplification that is likely to have greater impact on the precision
of the estimates as the degree of aggregation with in a time band increases, moreover
gap analysis ignore differences in spreads between interest rates that could arise as the
level of the market interest rates changes. In addition, it does not take into account
any changes in the timing of payments that might occur as a result of changes in the
interest rate environment. Thus, it fails to account for differences in the sensitivity of
income that may arise form option-related positions, for these reasons gap analysis
provides only a rough approximation to the actual change in net interest income
would result from the chosen change in the pattern of interest rates. Finally gap
analysis fail to capture variability in non interest revenues and expenses, potentiality
important sources of risk of the current income.
2. CURRENT ANALYSIS
A maturity/re-pricing schedule can also used to evaluate the effects of changing
interest rates on Financial Institutions economic value by applying sensitivity weights
to each time band. Typically, such weights are based on estimates of the duration of
the assets and liabilities that fall into each time and duration give a small change in
the level of interest rates. Duration may also be defined as the weighted average of the
time until expected cash flows from a security will be receive, relative to the current
price of the security. The weights are the present values of each cash flow divided by
the current price. In its simples form, duration measures changes in economic value
resulting from a percentage change of interest rates under the simplifying
assumptions that changes in value are proportional to changes in the levelof interest
rates and that the timing of payments is fixed. Modified duration is standard duration
divided by 1+r, where the level of market interest rate is is elasticity. As such, it
ref1ects the percentage change in the economic value of the instrument for a given
percentage change in the economic value of the instrument for a given percentage
change in 1+r. as with simple duration, it assumes a linear relationship between
45
percentages changes in value and percentage changes in interest rates / in other words,
modified duration = Macaulay duration/Cl +r), where Macaulay duration = cft(t)/(l+r)
/cft/(l+r) to the power t
left = rupee value of cash flow at time t
T = number of periods of time until the cash flow payment
Y = periodic yield to maturity of the security generating cash flow and
K = the number of cash flows.
3. TREND ANALYSIS
This is a statistical tool with his we can find out the position of anything in
financial institution, I did the trend analysis of "cumulative mismatch of last one year
as percentage to working funds", by this, it is possible to know that how that
fluctuation in funds take place in the one year mismatches.
4. RATIO ANALYSIS
The liquidity ratios are very useful in the liquidity risk management analysis.
Because with the ratios we can analyze "the liquidity positions for the company by
taking the past data and we can interpreter the findings. Here in financial institution,
we should also given by the RBI on the bank, by observing the limits and of findings
we can analyze as Financial Institutions is with in the limits or not. The ratios, which
are used in financial institutions, are
Current assets/current liabilities
Total loans/ total assets
Total assets/ total liabilities
Total advances/total liabilities
46
Quick ratio:
The ratios, which helps to find out liquidity position of all financial institution.
Liquidity and Interest rate analysis:
This is the only tool, which is used in the ALM process to manage the liquidity
risk, by doing the gap analysis, Financial Institutions ,can avoid risks and can earn
more profits, and this is used to analyze the gaps in between the inflows and outflows
of the statement for every fortnight. By doing the gap, analysis the Financial
Institutions can know about in which bucket the risk. This gap raised due to the
changes in the values of the assets and liabilities and changes in their interest rates.
For measuring and managing net funding requirements the use of maturity ladder and
calculation of cumulative surplus / deficit of funds at selected maturity data is
suggested for adoption by FI. The maturity profile is used to measure the future cash
flows of banks different buckets.
Value At Risk (VAR).
VOR is defined as an estimate of potential loss in position or asset/liability or
portfolio of assets liabilities over a given holding period at a given level of certainty
or unexpected happening the probability of suffering a loss.
BUCKETING:
The time columns used in the below statement, are called as the time buckets.
These buckets are mainly divided in to three types short - term, medium - term and
long term. Allocating the items of inflows and outflows in this column is called as
bucketing.
Over 1 month to 3 months
Over 3 months to 6 months
Over 6 months to 12 months
47
Less than or equal to 1 year
More than 1 year and up to 3 years
More than 3 years and up to 5 years
More than 5 years and up to 7 years
More than 7 years and up to 10 years
More than 10 years
To analyze the statement a person should have to get grip on the various items or
liquidity statement. Various items are covered in the statement under the inflow and
out flows.
Methods to bucket:
The nature of the each item is different with others. So few models are used to
find out under which bucket it will come like residual maturity, behaviouralization.
Residual Maturity:
This is the type where the item due date is taken as a base to bucket. Based on
maturity date and the starting date of the item time period is calculated. Statements
preparation data should also be considered.

CHAPTER -4
DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
As per RBI guide lines the banks, NBFC’s are required to have ALM and conduct
asset liability management committee meetings regularly APSFC though not require
to maintain ALM, has constituted a asset liability managers committee with the
managing directors as chairman and other senior officers as members of the ALCO
meets every month and reviews cash budgets, interest rate changes, funds position and
statement of structural liquidity of various out flows and inflows and statements of
interest sensitivity as at a particular month and as per RBI guidelines.
The cash budget comprises of various sources of funds to APSFC by way of
refinancing from SIDBI, short term loans from banks, fixed deposits, its also gives the
uses of funds by way of disbursement of loans repayment of principal of amounts to
SIDBI, commercial banks and fixed deposits, payment of interest, administrative and
personal expenses. It reveals the gap in funds requirement and various sources to fill
the gap.
The structural liquidity statements and interest sensitivity statements are proposed as
per formats prescribed by RBI.
