Cardinal Principles of Sound Lending

Loan, Lending & Advances :
 A loan is when you receive money from a friend,
bank or financial institution in exchange for future
repayment of the principal, plus interest.
 Lending is one the primary function of a bank. The
banks accept deposits from people and then lend
that money to needy people in the form of loans,
advances, cash credit and overdraft.
 A bank should examine the security offered against
loan, credit worthiness of the borrower and the
purpose of the loan as advances.

Principles Of Sound Lending :
• Liquidity
• Safety
• Diversity
• Profitability
• Margin Money
• Principle of Purpose

 Liquidity: Liquidity is a measure of the ability and ease with
which assets can be converted to cash.
 Safety: Safety means that the borrower should be able to repay the
loan and interest in time at regular intervals without default.
 Diversity: Diversification aims at minimizing risks of the investment
portfolio of a bank.
 Profitability: The bank has to earn profit to pay salaries to the staff,
interest to the depositors, dividend to the shareholders and to meet
the day-to-day expenditure. Loans and advances, though the least
liquid asset, constitute the most profitable asset to the bank.
 Margin Money: Margin means a sufficient gap between loan value
and security value. For example, if security market value is Rs 1000
then bank may offer Rs 800 as loan.
 Principle of Purpose: At the time of granting an advance the
banker must inquire about the purpose of the loan.

Categories of Loans and Advances :
All loans and advances will be grouped into four categories
for the purpose of classification, namely-
• Continuous Loan
• Demand Loan
• Fixed Term Loan and
• Short-term Agricultural & Micro- Credit.

Objective Criteria of Loans classification

date for repayment will be treated as past due/overdue from the
following day of the expiry date.
ii. Any Demand Loan if not repaid within the fixed expiry date for
repayment will be treated as past due/overdue from the following
day of the expiry date.
iii. In case of any installments or part of installments of a Fixed Term

Loan Pricing
Loan Pricing
Risk-based pricing or loan pricing is a system
that evaluates the risk factors of your mortgage
application and credit profile and adjusts the
interest rate and discount points up or down
based on this risk evaluation. The interest rate
on a loan is determined not only by the time
value of money, but also by the lender's
estimate of the probability that the borrower will
default on the loan.

Meaning of Loan Supervision and Follow up
 Loan supervision means the procedures to have a proper
control over the borrowers’ operation to ensure the end use of
funds. Supervision keeps track of the end-use of fund lent.
 Follow-up is the systematic process to ensure that the terms
and conditions of the advance at pre-disbursement,
disbursement, post-disbursements and recovery stages are
complied with and money lent is repaid as per schedule of
repayment.
 Supervision and follow-up are closely related. Supervision gives
more emphasis on proper end-use and follow-up gives more
emphasis on timely recovery of advances.

Objectives of Loan Supervision and Follow up
 To ensure compliance with the terms and conditions of
sanction.
 To ensure that assumptions for credit sanction was
correct.
 To ensure end use of funds.
 To ensure adequacy of credit on an ongoing basis
depending on the needs of the borrowers.

Security of a Loan
Security of a Loan
 In lending agreements, security is a borrower's pledge of specific
property to a lender, to secure repayment of a loan.
 The security serves as protection for a lender against a borrower's
default—that is, it can be used to offset the loan to any borrower
failing to pay the principal and interest under the terms of a loan
obligation.
 If a borrower does default on a loan (due to insolvency or other
event), that borrower forfeits the property pledged as security, with
the lender then becoming the owner of the property.
 For instance, in a typical mortgage loan transaction the real estate
being acquired with the help of the loan serves as security. Should
the buyer fail to pay the loan under the mortgage loan agreement,
the ownership of the real estate is transferred to the bank.

Various forms of Loan Security
 Mortgages
 Pledged deposits
 Guarantees
 Lien on machinery and other equipment
 Pledge or lien on inventory
 Letter of comfort
