CREDIT POLICY
GENERAL DEFINITION:Credit Policy is the clear, written guidelines that set the following basic things:
(1) The terms and conditions for supplying goods on credit
(2) Customer qualification criteria
(3) Procedure for making collections
(4) Steps to be taken in case of customer delinquency.
It is also called collection policy4.
OBJECTIVES:
SBP regulations and economic conditions are kept in mind while designing the techniques and objectives for credit management strategy. Following are some of the objectives of SPCB’s credit policy:o Enable the bank to develop long-term business plans.o Equip the bank to face the ever changing competitive scenario more effectively and act proactively
rather than reactively.o To be a source of confidence to the lending officers and enable them to operate more effectively
within the framework of approved delegated authority.o Provide a framework of reference and standards and to enable the bank to provide uniform
treatment to the borrowing customers.
o Provide guidance for what to do, not how to do.o Properly serve the credit needs of current customers by satisfying them and establish long-term
relationship with them.
o Provide a framework in which to conduct business.
SBP’S REQUIREMENT: It is SBP’s requirement that every bank should keep 2% of its total capital as reserves with the State Bank. SBP approves every loan and provides comprehensive directions to every bank in the prudential regulations. These instructions are same for every bank but banks could make certain changes in the level of deposits, advancement ratio and their loan portfolio. Total amount of loan advancement is totally dependent on SPCB’s credibility situation.

CREDIT POLICY OF RBS
Credit Standards Followed By RBS:
The RBS credit standards are as follows:
DIVERSIFICATION:RBS being a clever financial institution doesn’t invest in just one sector. It follows the basic rule i.e.
“DON’T PULL ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET!!!”
Their focus is on the following sectors:
SECTORS LIMIT OF LOANSSmall Medium Enterprise (SME) 50 millionCommercial Sector 50-350millionGlobal banking and Markets Above 350 million
SAFETY:RBS follow the SAFETY-FIRST principle i.e. Money given as loan must be used properly. The credit risk management department handles this principle.The following five elements(C’s) help a banker in arriving at the conclusion regarding safety. Character: Borrower’s intention to repay the
advance, since his honesty and integrity is of significance.
Capacity: Mixture of academics and experience in the relative field and ability to repay. And How well do we understand and know the relevant customer.
Capital: it means how much you are willing to invest your money.SBP restricts the misuse of bank’s money.
Conditions: Bank should analyze the economic, business and socioeconomic conditions to secure the loan.
INSTITUTE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, PUNJAB UNIVERSITY
Agriculture financing is just 1-2% because
SBP makes it essential for the
bank.
RBS focuses on 3c’s: CHARACTER, CAPITAL.CAPACITY
Liquidity condition means tendency of convertibility of assets into cash.
Page
20
Cash-flows: Cash flow statement of the customer should be analyzed to secure the loan. We analyze the inflow and outflow of cash.
LIQUIDITY: bank should analyze the liquidity condition of its and its customer.
PROFITIBILITY: Profits are as important to RBS as are to the other organizations as they also have different types of expenses. The main source of income for RBS is the amount it charges from its customers as mark up. Therefore, the RBS may prefer a customer with low risk and reasonable markup to ensure an optimal profit.
DESIRABILITY: RBS focuses that money should be used for agreed purposes.
CREDIT RISK AND RETURN: The Credit risk management focuses risks associated with the loans and their repayments.RBS focuses on short term loans to avoid defaults.
CENTRALIZED AUTHORITY:The decision making power regarding credit policy and any loan approvals is centralized in RBS. They are moving toward the hub concept. This has a negative impact on potential or prospective customers because any person wanting to acquire a small loan in a few days time has to wait a lot and as a result a number of applicants cannot be satisfied. RBS credit policy hinders such activity because having no power and setup to verify credentials etc, the process at the head office takes minimum 15days. But this step is also going to show the confidential output by bank.
FUNDED AND NONFUNDED FACILITIESBoth funded and non-funded facilities are provided by RBS but the preference is to provide non funded facilities as it involves lower risk.
SECTORAL BASED LENDINGRBS extends loan to almost all the sectors except for certain unapproved segments. However, RBS focuses on consumer, commercial, corporate, agriculture, construction, engineering, automobiles and fertilizers sector. No loans are available for textile sector this time because of the bad conditions of this sector. RBS is moved the directions of its credit policy toward the recovery of its loans.
INSTITUTE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, PUNJAB UNIVERSITY

NICHE MARKETINGTheir marketing objectives and techniques are based on niche marketing. They target on salaried class which they have named as Category A. This is because salaried class is more conscious about making the payments on time and it is easier to recover loan from them as compared to any other class. In current economic conditions of Pakistan and worldwide recession, it’s the basic pillar of RBS which is not only secured but also profitable but because of rapidly unemployment, RBS not advancing loans to this sector but again we will say that they are not destroying their customers of this sector even at the time of recovery. They are providing their non funded facility mostly to salaried based sector after all they are golden pillars of RBS.
UNAPPROVED SEGMENTSUnapproved segments are the segments to which bank does not extend loan due to some reasons. These include lawyers, journalists, farmers, money changers, politicians.
TIME REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL OF LOANAs RBS is a multinational bank it takes a long time of 15 days for any loan to get approved from the head office because it does not give decision power to each branch. It has centralized system. The preparation of documents also required a lot of time because of manual working system. Due to this reason RBS is also losing a great number of its customers.
PATTERN OF INSTALLMENTSRBS prefers quarterly payments as part of their selling terms set with the customers in advancement of the loan. However, such terms may vary from customer to customer and situation to situation.
CREDIT CARDClient can withdraw cash up to 75% of the available shared credit limit (if he is holding more than one RBS Credit Card). For example, if your shared credit limit is PKR 300,000 and your cash withdrawal limit is 75%, you can withdraw up to PKR 225,000.
NPL RatioRBS NPL ratio is comparatively good if we consider the financial crisis and current position of the bank. Reason behind this is that they don’t accrue their revenues .Instead they are recorded when actually incurred. That’s why their books show the good position.
REVISION OF CREDIT POLICYThe credit policy is revised at least quarterly to incorporate the economic and financial changes in the country. Similarly, any change in the prudential regulations by the State Bank of Pakistan and socio-economical factors can prompt the bank to revise its policy in the given scenario accordingly.
Their policy also changed according to risks and opportunities in the market like payment incentives 54(flat rate, computed rate) and low risk credit policies (advance payment & LC). So according to this policy, now a day RBS is working with flat rate

The customer having between 1-6 months credit history reflecting in e-CIB will be considered as NTI's.

INCOME REQUIREMENT
Minimum Income of Salaried, SEB, SEP, NTI & Branch Banking Segment are:
Segments Net Income (PKR)A,B,C, Unapproved & Contractual 40,000SEP 50,000SEB/ NTI * 50,000Branch Banking 50,000
Where;
SEB stands for Self-Employed Businessman SEP stands for Self-Employed Professional. NTI stands for New to the industry.

B includes all the employees related to the textile sector. They are given credit up to 3times of their salary.
C includes the government employees. They are given credit up to 2times of their salary. Unapproved are given credit up to2 times of their salary.
TIME PERIOD FOR FINANACING
Running finance: its short term loan
Demand finance: 1 to 5 years maximum time period for this loan because it fulfilled the specific need of the customer like construction.
Term finance: 5 to 10 years maximum time period but in this loan the installment is involved.
LC FACILITYRBS focused on hypothecate based facility.
Collateral Based Lending: Bank focuses on financing backed up by a security. Because there is no proper documentation system and Corruption rate is high!!
INSTITUTE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, PUNJAB UNIVERSITY

CDR (Credit deposit Ratio) position of RBS:RBS has to reserve 30% in form of reserves in SBP (State Bank of Pakistan). This 30% can be reserved in different forms as cash, T Bonds, T Bills and anything which can be easily convertible into cash.
RBS’ cash reserve ratio is 5 to 7 percent
SAFTY MARGIN:
For funded based facilities: 10 to 25 percent is the average safety margin rate. It varies customer to customer. It’s also varies by securities and liquidity position of the customers.0% safety margin can also be for those customers who are most reliable customers.
For non- funded based facilities: on average the 15% to 35% safety margin is taken.
If government has to stop the imports of anything to support the local production, SBP ordered to increase this safety margin. For critical items like perishable items this safety margin can be 100%.
CREDIT POLICY FOR RENEWALS & ENHANCEMENTFollowing are the requirements for renewals:
Actual last year business progress Clean up condition for one year Basic Borrower’s fact sheet report Credit Information Report Auditing Report of their business Bank Reference Personal Reference Customer has also to provide the action plan that the money which has been enhanced where
to use. The reason for which request of renewal is given.
SPREAD:RBS is stated to be charging around 2%-4% spread to its customers with negotiations or bargains with customers even though they might not always be providing ancillary business to RBS. This depends on the customer’s track record and his credibility.
RBS invests extensively in mortgages and as fewer mortgage investments are present, RBS has the opportunity to charge high mark ups. The high charges cover the costs incurred on those who have defaulted.
PAYMENT INCENTIVES:RBS deals with flat rate because flat rate does not consider TIME VALUE CONSTRAINT. Being customer friendly it helps the customer to forecast his budget .this is rate is not affected by economic conditions.

SUGGESTIONS
A strong forum of all the stakeholders should be made, where the state representatives, industrialists, bankers and the concerned people can gather together and give valuable suggestions for the betterment of the whole financial system e.g.; Federal Reserve of U.S.A.
SECP should be more helpful to the banks; it should work more efficiently in providing the details of Ranking charges and Pari-Pasu charges.
Keeping the current economic scenario of the country, RBS must also focus on agriculture sector because Pakistan is an agricultural country and providing loans to this sector will lead towards prosperity.
RBS should give a customer friendly credit facilities at most in each of its branches so that the customer feels more convenient.
RBS should held meetings and seminars for their customers to give them suggestions and advices to improve their credit worthiness. Moreover to guide the customers about their loan products and procedures.

CONCLUSION
Due to worldwide recession RBS has faced huge losses in current times; RBS in Pakistan is not advancing long-term loans to corporate sector or other sectors as well due to the bad social and economic conditions in the country. When RBS re-branded the name of ABN-AMRO formally last year, total branches of RBS in Pakistan were 85 but now the number has reduced to 73. Similarly the net value of assets of RBS in Pakistan has also been reduced to 23 billion PKR from 73 billion PKR. Moreover, more than 90% share of RBS Pakistan has been purchased by MCB and this take over will be completed in the upcoming year. In the current business environment with reduced sales and threats of recession RBS is under great pressure to manage their cash flows productively; in this regard RBS has kept somehow a lenient credit policy (in consumer financing i.e. short-term) as compared to other banks so that it may be able to retain its customers in future for upcoming year.
