4. Key Benefits
For Portfolio Management
• Enables scientific decision making on products, policies, processes and portfolio.
• Policies, geographies, portfolio segments (Income group, borrower employment category, age groups,
ticket sizes) can be systematically segregated and analyzed to understand their contribution to the health
of the overall portfolio.
• Encourage good performing and profitable segments through more aggressive policies and withdraw or
tighten policies in loss making segments
• New Acquisition can be directed in a focussed manner towards acquiring increased loans from profitable
segments.
• Enables pricing of portfolio segments in proportion to the risk.
For Strategy
• Inherent portfolio strengths can be better highlighted / leveraged in portfolio negotiations / securitisation
deals
5. Some Portfolio MIS types
• Default ratio trends ‐ Coincidental and Lagged delinquencies : These two types of default
ratio trends would clearly bring out the true picture of current default position. This analysis
helps look at the default picture, net of the impact of the recent acquisitions. Helps to know the
real / underlying risk in the portfolio.
• Segmentation trends : This mirrors the concept of “peeling the onion”. This helps drill
down to that exact point of the portfolio that needs to be either repaired or encouraged. This
drilling down can be done to hunt for good performing profitable segments or those that show
poor performance and actions as appropriate can be taken.
• Vintage months on book : This tracks default trends of the bookings done in a particular
period (say a month or a quarter) and enables comparison of portfolios booked in different
vintages, on the same scale. This analysis would detect early trends in the recent portfolios.
Through this analysis the organisation can take corrective action where required early enough.
• Flow Rate analysis : An immensely useful analysis with multiple benefits. Organisations can
monitor the efficiency of collections / recovery operations or can break up the inventory in
default buckets into those caused by poor acquisition and those due to gaps in recovery
processes. This analysis would also be useful to project future delinquencies and loss rates in the
portfolio.
