BANKING RISKS• BANKS EARN THEIR INCOME IN 2 WAYS

• ONE, BY GIVING CUSTOMER SERVICE

• SECOND, BY MANAGING RISKS

• SO RISK TAKING AND RISK MANAGEMENT IS THE NAME OF THE GAME FOR THE BANKS

• BANKING RISKS LIES ON WHICH SIDE OF THE BALANCE SHEET ?

LOAN AND OTHER LOSSES

• Two types of losses are possible in respect of a borrower or class of borrowers:

– Expected Losses [EL]

– Un-expected Losses [UL]

Capital Charge on Credit Risk

• Expected Losses (EL) indicates the average loss that the Bank might incur on a portfolio.

• EL = PD x LGD x EAD

• Unexpected losses (UL) is the uncertainty around EL. It is the SD of EL .

Percentile Level 99th percentile Loss gives the Maximum Loss that will occur 99 times out of 100

Page 12: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

EXPECTED LOSSES [EL]

• These are part of the normal business risks banks carry and can be provided for

• EL is a function of three parameters:

– Probability of Default [PD]

– Exposure at default [EAD]

– Loss Given Default [LGD]

12

Page 13: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

EXPECTED LOSSES AND CREDIT RISK

• EL can be modelled

• EL = PD X EAD X LGD

• EL can be aggregated at level of individual loans or at portfolio level

• Does EL constitute credit risk?

13

Page 14: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

EXPECTED LOSSES AND UNEXPECTED LOSSES

• EL can be managed/covered by Provisions like Loan Loss or NPA Provisions, Provision for Depreciation of Investments etc.

• Whereas Unexpected Losses are taken care of by having adequate capital

• So Capital acts as a cushion or shock absorber for a bank to meet unforeseen losses and Contingencies

14

Page 15: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

THE IMPORTANCE OF BANK CAPITAL

• Why is ‘capital’ so important for banks?

• What does bank ‘capital’ constitute?

• When values of other assets and liabilities of a bank changes, what happens to the ‘capital’?

• What should ‘capital’ be ideally related to, in order to determine ‘safety’ of a bank?

15

Page 16: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

ECONOMIC CAPITAL• Risk associated with banking depends on

types of services rendered

• Risk is defined as the adverse deviation of actual results from expected results

• Capital estimated to cover the probabilistic assessment of potential future losses is called ‘Economic capital’ – can be defined as the amount of capital considered necessary to absorb potential losses arising from banking risks

16

Page 17: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

REGULATORY CAPITAL

• Regulatory capital depends on ‘confidence level’ set by regulator

• Both regulatory and economic capital are concerned with banks’ financial staying power

• Different from ‘accounting capital’ on balance sheet

• In the long run, stability of banks depends on capital to support economic/banking risks

17

Page 18: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

REGULATORY CAPITAL- RISK BASED CAPITAL STANDARDS

• In 1980s, concerns about bank safety increased

• Bank for International Settlements [BIS], the world’s oldest international financial organization, established the Basle Committee for Banking Supervision [BCBS]

• In 1988, BCBS introduced bank capital measurement system popularly known as Basle Capital Accord

18

Page 19: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

BASLE CAPITAL ACCORD I

• 1988 – ‘internationally active banks’ in G10 countries agreed that bank capital should be at least 8% of assets measured according to risk profile

• Portfolio approach to risk – assets can have 0, 10, 20, 50, 100% risk weight

• Accord adopted world standard in 1990s – more than 100 countries

Capital Funds (CF)

CAR =----------------------------------------------

Total Risk Weighted Assets (TRWA)

Capital funds = Tier I Capital + Tier II Capital

Risk Weighted/Adjusted Assets consist of both On-Balance Sheet and Off- Balance Sheet Items.

Basel Capital Accord I initially in 1988 prescribed Regulatory Capital to take care of Credit Risk only. By virtue of an amendment to the Accord in 1996, Capital was prescribed for Market Risk also.

Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) aka Capital to Risk-weighted/adjusted Asset Ratio (CRAR)

Page 21: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Meaning of Capital Adequacy Capital adequacy means a bank must have a minimum level

of capital proportionate to its total risk adjusted value of assets as prescribed by the Central Bank of the country.

Minimum requirements of Capital Funds/Prescribed Level of Capital Adequacy : For India Minimum CAR/CRAR is 9% of total risk-weighted assets (TRWAs) w.e.f. March 31, 2000 both under Basel I and II as against the International norm of 8%

For computing the CAR/CRAR, one has to find out the (a) Total Risk-Weighted Assets (TRWA) for both on-Balance Sheet and Off-Balance Sheet items and (b) Total Capital Fund (Tier I and Tier II Capital) by strictly following the guidelines prescribed by RBI

BROAD DEFINITION OF CAPITAL

• Accounting definition of capital as seen in banks’ financial statements different from regulatory definition

• Regulatory capital set in two tiers

• Tier I – shareholders’ equity and retained earnings

• Tier II – additional internal and external sources available to the bank

23

Page 24: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

MINIMUM CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

• Capital required to compensate for credit risk, market risk [and operational risk in Basel II]

• Capital ratio – regulatory capital to risk weighted assets [credit risk+ market risk+ operational risk]

• Capital ratio not to be less than 9% in India currently as ag. international norm of 8%.

• Tier 2 capital should be limited to 100% of tier 1 capital, i.e., Not more than 50% of total capital fund

• Tier 3 capital will be limited to 250% of a bank's tier 1 capital that is required to support market risks. – Tier 3 Capital not implemented in India so far.

24

Page 25: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

CAPITAL ADEQUACY REQUIREMENTS - INDIA

• The Basle framework was adopted by the RBI, prescribing a higher norm of 9% on risk weighted assets [as against 8% by the Basle Accord] for all banks operating in India.

• The aggregate of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital forms the total capital funds for banks for the purpose of computing ‘Capital Adequacy’

• Tier 1 Capital @ minimum = 50% of Total Capital Fund; Tier 2 Capital @ maximum = 50% of Total Capital Fund; i.e., Tier 2 Capital Not to exceed Tier 1 Capital 25

Page 26: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

COMPONENTS OF TIER 1 CAPITAL IN INDIA [RBI. July 2009]

• Equity capital & free reserves

• Innovative Perpetual Debt Instruments [IPDI - limited to 15% of tier 1 capital]

• Perpetual Non Cumulative Preference Shares [IPDI + this component limited to 40% of tier 1 capital]

• All the above subject to regulations in force

26

Page 27: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

DEDUCTIONS FROM TIER 1 CAPITAL

• Equity investment in subsidiaries

• Intangible assets and losses

• Deferred Tax Assets

• Gain on sale on securitization of standard assets, where profit is recognized

• Others as specified by RBI

27

Page 28: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

KEY COMPONENTS OF TIER 1 CAPITAL OF FOREIGN BANKS IN INDIA

• Interest free funds from head office for meeting capital requirements in India

• Statutory reserves in India

• Non repatriable surplus from Indian operations

• Capital reserves from sale of assets in India

• Foreign currency borrowings from ho for meeting capital adequacy

28

Page 29: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

COMPONENTS OF TIER 2 CAPITAL IN INDIA - 1

• Revaluation reserves – discount of 55%. Such reserves arise from revaluation of Fixed Assets which have book values much less compared to their current market price.

• General provisions and loss reserves/GPLR (including provision on standard loan assets) – up to maximum of 1.25% of total risk weighted assets

• Hybrid debt capital instruments

• IPDI > 15% of tier 1 capital

• IPDI +PNCPS > 40% of tier 1 capital

29

Page 30: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

COMPONENTS OF TIER 2 CAPITAL IN INDIA - 2

• Subordinated debt/Tier-2 bonds (Unsecured, fully paid and subordinate to the claim of all other creditors) – initial/original maturity of more than 5 years - at a discount for bonds with remaining/residual maturity of < 5 years as it approaches maturity. Subordinated Debt with initial maturity of less than 5 years and unexpired maturity of less than 1 year cannot be included in Tier II Capital.

• The total amount of Subordinated debt should not exceed 50% of Tier I Capital.

Assignment of Risk Weights to Different Assets

• Cash & Balance with RBI 0%

• Balances with Other Banks 20%

• Government / Approved Securities (market risk) 2.5%

• Loans to Staff fully secured by superannuation

benefits/mortgage of house 20%

• Residential Housing Loan to Individuals (up to 30 L) 50%

• Loan to PSUs 100%

• Other Loans 100%

• Exposure to Capital Markets/Consumer Loans 125%

• Commercial Real Estates 150%

Page 33: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Calculation of Risk Adjusted orRisk Weighted Value of Assets - 1

• Calculation of Risk Weighted Value of On-Balance Sheet Assets (RWA for On-Balance Sheet Assets) : RWAs for On-Balance Sheet Items are calculated by multiplying the value of the assets (Ai) as appearing on the balance sheet with the risk-weight (rwi) assigned to it. For example, if the Bank has an investment of Rs.100 Cr. In Govt. Bonds carrying a risk-weight of 2.5%, the RWA will be Rs.2.5 Cr.

• The Total Risk-Weighted Assets for all On-Balance Sheet Items will be; TRWA = A1 * rw1 + A2 * rw2 + ……… + An * rwn = Ai * rwi

33

Page 34: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Calculation of Risk Adjusted orRisk Weighted Value of Assets - 2

• Notional Conversion of Off-Balance Sheet Items to Fund Based Facility and Calculation of their Risk Weighted Value (RWA for Off-Balance Sheet Items) : All Off-Balance Sheet (OBS) items like LC, LG or BG etc. are to be first converted notionally into fund-based facility or Credit Equivalent or Equivalent On-Balance Sheet Item by multiplying them with the prescribed credit conversion factor (CCF). The CCF may be 20% (Documentary LC), 50% (Performance LG), 100% (Financial LG) etc. depending on the type of OBS item.

34

Page 35: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Calculation of Risk Adjusted orRisk Weighted Value of Assets - 3

• The risk weighted/adjusted values of this notional fund based amount is then calculated by multiplying the same with the risk-weight assigned to the counter-party on whose behalf the bank has taken the exposure (i.e., the applicant of the LC/LG etc.)

• Risk-Weighted Value of an Off-Balance Sheet Item = Value of the OBS Exposure * CCF * Counter-Party Risk-Weight

• Where Govt. is the Counter-Party, rw is 0%, where Bank is the Counter-Party, rw is 20%, and for any other Counter-Party, rw is 100%.

35

Page 36: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Calculation of Risk Adjusted orRisk Weighted Value of Assets - 3

• The Total Risk-Weighted Assets (TRWAs) for both On-Balance Sheet and Off-Balance Sheet Items will be; TRWA = TRWA (for On-BS Items + Off-BS Items)

36

Page 37: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

BASLE ACCORD I - DRAWBACKS

• One shoe /size fits all approach

• The regulatory measures were seen to be in conflict with increasingly sophisticated internal measures of economic capital

• The simple bucket approach with a flat 8% charge for claims on the private sector has resulted in banks moving high quality assets off their balance sheets, thus reducing the average asset quality

• The Accord did not sufficiently recognize credit risk mitigation techniques

37

Page 38: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

BASLE II ACCORD

• Revised framework - a spectrum of approaches ranging from simple to advanced for measurement of credit risks, market risks and operational risks, all of which could lead to asset quality and value deterioration.

• The framework also builds in incentives for better and more accurate risk management by individual banks.

38

Page 39: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

BASLE II – THE THREE PILLARS

• Three mutually reinforcing ‘pillars’, which together are expected to contribute to the safety and soundness of the international financial system

• First Pillar: Minimum Capital requirement

• Second Pillar: Supervisory Review Process

• Third Pillar: Market discipline and enhanced disclosures

39

Page 40: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

40

Basel II(Three-pillar structure)

Pillar 1: sets out minimumcapital requirement for a bank’s credit, market andoperational risks

Pillar 3: requires a bankto enhance its public disclosures on its risk profile, capital adequacy and key financial information

Pillar 2: deals with other risks not covered under Pillar 1; requires banks to hold capital to cover these risks; and requires supervisors to review banks’ capital planning

Page 41: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Basel II has led to reevaluation of capital framework across the

world"Basel II will provide one of the biggest structural shocks to the banking industry for decades. Is the industry ready?"

Mercer Oliver Wyman, Dec 2003

Capital framework AdvancedRudimentary

Basel I Basel II Economic capital More closely aligns regulatory

capital with economic risks

Standardized

Distinguishes capital charge by asset quality based on rating agency scoring

External ratings correspond to PD

Internal Ratings Based

Foundation: Allows banks to estimate PD while LGD and EAD are provided

Advanced: Allows banks to estimate PD, LGD and EAD

BIS II doesn't address concentration risk explicitly Single name, industry, country

Economic capital framework based on internal models PD, LGD, EAD Maturity, correlation Spread migration

Does not rely on calibration established by regulator, i.e., not average risk

Static risk weights based on asset type, i.e., sovereign, banks, corp, etc.

No distinction within risk weighting bands for asset quality "One size fits all"

Amendment ('97) allows for use of VaR to estimate market risk

However, measurement of credit risk remains rudimentary

Does not distinguish between market, credit or operational risk per se

Basel I to Basel II

Basel I Basel II

Focus on single risk measure More emphasis on banks’ own internal risk management methodologies, supervision review and market discipline.

‘One size fits all’ Flexibility, menu of approaches, capital incentives for better risk management. Granularity in valuation of assets and type of business and in the risk profiles of their system and operations.

Broad brush approach More risk sensitivity by structuring business class and asset class. Multidimensional, focus on all operational components of a bank

Page 45: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

DEFINITIONS OF RISKS• Credit risk is the probability that a borrower or a

counterparty will fail to meet obligations in accordance with agreed terms

• Operational risk is the risk of loss from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, systems or external events.

• Market risk is the possibility of loss over a given period of time related to uncertain movements in market risk factors, such as interest rates, currencies, equities, and commodities. Also includes specific risk due to composition of bank’s investment portfolio

45

Page 46: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

PROCESS FOR CALCULATING CREDIT RISK

– Classify assets/on-balance sheet items into appropriate risk categories and assign risk weights

– Convert off balance sheet commitments/contingent liabilities and guarantees like LC, BG and Forward Exchange Contracts etc. to a notional on balance sheet ‘credit equivalent’ by multiplying the appropriate Credit Conversion Factors (CCF) and classify these in the appropriate risk categories depending on the Counter Party

– Multiply the rupee amount of assets in each risk category by the appropriate risk weight. The result equals ‘risk weighted assets’ 46

Page 47: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

TOTAL RISK WEIGHTED ASSETS

• Arrived at by

– Multiplying market risk and operational risk by 12.5 [reciprocal of minimum capital ratio of 8%]. For India Minimum CAR/CRAR is 9% wef March 31, 2000.

– And adding the resulting figure to credit risk

47

Page 48: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Credit risk- standardized approach

• Salient features

– The Standardized approach for credit risk retains some part of the 1988 Accord, such as the definition of ‘capital’.

– Its novelty lies in the replacing the existing risk weighting scheme by a system where risk weights are determined by the borrower’s credit rating by External Credit Rating Agencies like CRSIL, ICRA, CARE & FITCH.

48

Page 49: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Credit risk – IRB approach

• Salient features

– Banks can use their internal estimates of borrower creditworthiness to assess credit risk

– These banks may rely on their own internal estimates of PD, LGD, EAD and effective maturity [M] in determining the capital requirement for a given exposure.

– Banks may be required to use values prescribed by supervisors in lieu of internal estimates for some of the risk components.

49

Page 50: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

CREDIT RISK- IRB APPROACH

• Two broad approaches for many asset classes- ‘foundation’ and ‘advanced’

• Under the foundation approach banks generally provide their own estimates of PD and rely on supervisory estimates for other risk components.

• Under the advanced approach, banks provide more of their own estimates of PD, LGD and EAD, and their own calculation of M, subject to meeting minimum standards.

50

Page 51: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

MARKET RISK

• Capital required for both general market risk as well as specific market risk.

• General market risk - the impact of broad market movements on the market value of on balance sheet assets and off balance sheet items, including risks common to all securities, such as changes in the general level of interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices or stock prices.

• Specific market risk- inherent risks of a particular security, such as the credit risk of the institution, which issued the security.

51

Page 52: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

OPERATIONAL RISK• BASIC INDICATOR APPROACH

– KBIA = [(GI1…n x )]/n

Where

– KBIA = the capital charge under the Basic Indicator Approach

– GI = annual gross income, where positive, over the previous three years, GI = Net Int. Income + Net Non-Int. Income

– n = number of the previous three years for which gross income is positive

– = 15%, which is set by the Committee, relating the industry wide level of required capital to the industry wide level of the indicator.

52

Page 53: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

OPERATIONAL RISK- STANDARDIZED APPROACH

• Banks’ activities divided into eight business lines: corporate finance, trading & sales, retail banking, commercial banking, payment & settlement, agency services, asset management, and retail brokerage.

• Within each business line, gross income is a broad indicator that serves as a proxy for the scale of business operations and thus the likely scale of operational risk exposure within each of these business lines.

• The capital charge for each business line is calculated by multiplying gross income by a factor (denoted beta) assigned to that business line.

53

Page 54: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

OPERATIONAL RISK- AMA

• Under the AMA, the regulatory capital requirement will equal the risk measure generated by the bank’s internal operational risk measurement system using the quantitative and qualitative criteria for the AMA.

• Use of the AMA is subject to supervisory approval.

54

Page 55: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

BANKS IN INDIA- MIGRATION TO ADVANCED APPROACHES

• Up to 2009, banks in India followed standardized approach for credit risk, standardized approach [modified duration] for market risk and basic indicator approach for operational risk

• From 2010 onwards, banks are expected to migrate to more advanced approaches in a phased manner, so that process is completed by 2014

Suggested Solution - 2• Verify whether the bank has achieved the capital adequacy level of 9%

• Total Risk-Weighted Assets (TRWA) = 12,450 Cr.

• CAR or CRAR = CF/TRWA = 1,132.60/12,450 = 9.10%

• If the bank expects to increase the total funds during the year by 15% and proposes to deploy the funds at an average risk weight of 64%, compute the requirement of capital to maintain CAR of 9%.

• Solution: Total Funds now = 16,600, Increase in funds @ 15% = 16,600*0.15 = 2,490

Page 63: Slide-19B-Capital Adequacy Framework for Banks & BASEl I , II & III Capital Accord

Suggested Solution - 3• Addition to risk Weighted Assets= 2,490 * 0.64 =

1,593.60

• Total Risk-weighted assets = 12,450 + 1,593.60 = 14,043.60

• Capital Fund required @ 9% CAR = 14,043.60 * 0.09 = 1,263.92

• Capital Fund available now = 1,132.60

• Additional Capital Fund Required = 1,263.92 – 1,132.60 = Rs.131.32 Cr.
