SECTION- I
Introduction & Overview
1.1. Introduction
IFCI Ltd. having its Head Office at IFCI Tower, 61, Nehru Place, Delhi- 110019 is one of the
leading NBFCs of India having its presence throughout the country. It is an undertaking of
the Government of India & was set up in 1948 as the first Development Financial Institution
in the country. The main objective of IFCI is to provide medium and long term financial
assistance to the corporates. IFCI offers a wide range of products to the target customer
segments to satisfy their specific financial needs.
1.2. Objective & Scope of work
Stress testing is the evaluation of a NBFC’s financial position under a severe but plausible
scenario to assist in decision making. It enables a NBFC in forward looking assessment of
risks & helps senior management to understand the condition in stressed time. Moreover,
stress testing outputs are used in decision making process in terms of potential actions like
risk mitigation techniques, contingency plans, capital & liquidity management, etc in
stressed conditions.
As part of risk management practices, IFCI is in process of implementing Stress Testing
framework for Credit risk. The two categories of stress tests are Sensitivity Analysis & Scenario
Tests. Sensitivity analysis estimates the impact on IFCI’s financial position due to predefined
movements in a single risk factor. Scenario analysis is the process of forecasting the likely
outcomes of a variety of possible scenarios.
On implementation of the stress testing framework, the relevant stress shocks & scenarios
shall be tested on credit portfolio of IFCI. As there is no separate guidelines for NBFCs issued
by RBI on Stress Testing for Credit Risk, guidelines for Banks w.r.t to shocks & scenarios to be
tested may be followed by IFCI. In this regard, a tender document has been prepared, to
invite bids from bidders through an open tendering process (e-tendering) for purchase of
software/ Excel based stress testing model & services by IFCI. The contract shall be for a
period of 3 years.
The scope of the work under the tender for the contract period is as mentioned below:
i. Install framework for stress testing (sensitivity analysis & scenario analysis) of IFCI’s
loan portfolio (credit risk) with shocks specified by RBI (Shocks for sensitivity analysis
are mentioned in Annexure VII) & other shocks & scenarios as specified by IFCI.
ii. Identify principal scenarios incorporating possibility of multi-level stress, change in
portfolio composition, new information & emerging risk possibilities for scenario
analysis.
iii. Install framework that allows IFCI to build more scenarios/ shocks in future.
iv. Carry out stress testing & scenario analysis of identified factors based on last
available half-yearly results/financials of IFCI.
v. Provide procedure for setting up stress tolerance limits & process for monitoring the
same.

NBFCs like IFCI.
