Qualitative disclosure around LCR:

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) standard is introduced to test the liquidity resilience of the Bank, for a minimum stress period of 30 days. The standard ensures, the Bank maintains adequate stock of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets (HOLA) that can be converted into cash to meet liquidity needs (net cash-out flows). The LCR is defined as:

Stock of high quality liquid assets (HOLAs)

LCR =--------------------------------------------------------------

Total net cash outflows over the next 30 calendar days

The minimum LCR requirement for the calendar year 2018 was 90 per cent and is stepped up to 100 per cent for the calendar year 2019.

HOLA comprises of Level 1(0% hair-cut), Level 2A (15% hair-cut) and Level 2B assets (50% hair-cut). Level 1 assets comprising of cash, excess CRR, excess SLR securities, government securities to the extent allowed by RBI under Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) [presently 2 per cent of the Bank’s NDTL] and Facility to Avail Liquidity for Liquidity Coverage Ratio (FALLCR) [as on 31st March 2019 13 per cent of the Bank’s NDTL].

Level 2A assets comprises of sovereign guaranteed marketable securities, corporate bonds or commercial papers which are rated AA- and more are issued other than by financial institutions. Level 2B assets include investments in common equity shares included in NSE CNX Nifty and / or S&P BSE Sensex indices.

Expected net cash outflows under stress are the weighted sum of outflows minus inflows in the next 30 days. Funding from retail and small business customers carries lower run-off factor as compared to wholesale funding.

Accordingly for the financial year 2017-18 bank is holding a provision of Rs.25.66 Crore (Rs.32.92 Crore) towards unhedged foreign currency exposure. Further Bank is also holding a capital of Rs.127.67 Crore (Rs.143.85 Crore) as on 31.03.2018 towards the risk on unhedged foreign currency exposure.

Policies to manage currency induced credit risk with regard to Unhedged Foreign Currency Exposure:

In respect of borrower entities having foreign currency exposure, Bank is computing Unhedged Foreign Currency Exposure (UFCE); Annual Earnings before interest and Depreciation (EBID); expected loss in case of movement in USD-INR exchange rate using annualized volatilities. Expected loss on account of exchange rate movements is expressed as a percentage of EBID i.e likely loss/ EBID percentage. As a prudential measure Bank is holding incremental capital and made incremental provisioning (over and above the extant standard assets provisioning) on the total credit exposure to such entities at the specified rates.

Qualitative disclosure around LCR :

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) standard is introduced to test the liquidity resilience of the Bank, for a minimum stress period of 30 days. The standard ensures, the Bank maintains adequate stock of unencumbered high quality liquid assets (HOLA) that can be converted into cash to meet liquidity needs (net cash-out flows). The LCR is defined as:

The minimum LCR requirement for the calendar year 2017 was 80 per cent and is stepped up to 90 per cent for the calendar year 2018. LCR requirement will be further stepped up 10 per cent annually to reach 100 per cent by 1st January 2019.

HOLA comprises of Level 1(0% hair-cut), Level 2A (15% hair-cut) and Level 2B assets (50% hair-cut). Level 1 assets comprising of cash, excess CRR, excess SLR securities, government securities to the extent allowed by RBI under Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) [presently 2 per cent of the Bank’s NDTL] and Facility to Avail Liquidity for Liquidity Coverage Ratio (FALLCR) [presently 9 per cent of the Bank’s NDTL].

Level 2A assets comprises of sovereign guaranteed marketable securities, corporate bonds or commercial papers which are rated AA- and more are issued other than by financial institutions. Level 2B assets include investments in common equity shares included in NSE CNX Nifty and/or S&P BSE Sensex indices.

Expected net cash outflows under stress are the weighted sum of outflows minus inflows in the next 30 days. Funding from retail and small business customers carries lower run-off factor as compared to wholesale funding. The prime drivers of the LCR are the level of surplus SLR held by the Bank and the proportion of retail and wholesale funding source.

Weighted Level 1 assets of the Bank constitutes around 95 per cent of the total HOLA, and the remaining 5 per cent comprises of Level 2A and Level 2B assets. Excess SLR securities (part of level 1 assets) forms around 30 per cent of the total HOLA.

Over the period the Bank reduced dependency on the wholesale deposits including certificate of deposits by increasing the share of retail (individual) deposits including CASA. The share of retail deposits to total domestic deposits remained at 56 per cent (March 2017) to 56 per cent (March 2018). The high share of retail deposits marks the stability in the funding profile of the Bank, reducing the liquidity outflows under stress.

During the FY 2017-18, the LCR of the Bank remained above the minimum requirement on all observed counts. The LCR moved down marginally year on year from average of 110.02% (FY 2016-17) to 108.27% (FY 2017-18). This was mainly on account of decreased share of retail deposits (increasing the cash outflows) and lesser HOLA.

Quarter on quarter, the LCR (3 months average) of the Bank moved from 109.75% (JuneRs.17) to 108.65% (SeptemberRs.17) and to 115.19% (DecemberRs.17).

6.8 Bankhas made certain modifications in the additional provisioning for non-performing advances by dispensing with additional provisioning for category II of doubtful advances. Consequently the Bank is holding such additional provision of Rs.500 Crore (previous year Rs.500 Crore) for non-performing advances over and above the minimum provision prescribed under IRAC norms of RBI.

6.9 Our Bank has sold 54880 units under Priority Sector Lending Certificates (PSLCs) to the tune of Rs.13720 Crore under Agriculture and Small and Marginal Farmers category as at March 2018.

Under the revised framework, the stand-still benefits for accounts where any of these schemes had been invoked but not yet implemented were revoked and accordingly these accounts have been classified as per the extant RBI prudential norms on Income Recognition and Asset Classification.

6.11 RBI vide letter DBR No BP 8756 21.04.048:2017-18 dated April 2, 2018, the provisioning requirements in respect of NCLT accounts is reduced from 50% of secured portion to 40% of secured portion as at March 31, 2018. However Bank has not availed the relaxation permitted and continue to provide @ 50% instead of provisioning @ 40%.

Qualitative disclosure around LCR

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) standard is introduced to tests the liquidity resilience of the Bank, for a minimum stress period of 30 days. The standard ensures, the Bank maintains adequate stock of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets (HOLA) that can be converted into cash to meet liquidity needs (net cash-out flows). The LCR is defined as:

Stock of high quality liquid assets (HOLAs)

LCR =------------------------------------------------------------------

Total net cash outflows over the next 30 calendar days

The minimum LCR requirement for the calendar year 2016 was 70 per cent and is stepped up to 80 per cent for the calendar year 2017. LCR requirement will be further, stepped up 10 per cent annually to reach 100 per cent by 1st January 2019.

HOLA comprises Level 1(0% hair-cut), Level 2A (15% hair-cut) and Level 2B assets (50% hair-cut). Level 1 assets comprising of cash, excess CRR, excess SLR securities, government securities to the extent allowed by RBI under Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) [presently 2 per cent of the Bank''s NDTL] and Facility to Avail Liquidity for Liquidity Coverage Ratio (FALLCR) [presently 9 per cent of the Bank''s NDTL].

Level 2A assets comprises of sovereign guaranteed marketable securities, corporate bonds or commercial papers which are rated AA and more are issued other than by financial institutions. Level 2B assets include investments in common equity shares included in NSE CNX Nifty and/or S&P BSE Sensex indices.

Expected net cash outflows under stress are the weighted sum of outflows minus inflows in the next 30 days. Funding from retail and small business customers carries lower run-off factor as compared to wholesale funding.

The prime drivers of the LCR are the level of surplus SLR held by the Bank and the proportion of retail and wholesale funding source.

Weighted Level 1 assets of the Bank constitutes around 95 per cent of the total HOLA, and the remaining 5 per cent comprises of Level 2A and Level 2B assets. Excess SLR securities (part of level 1 assets) forms around 30 per cent of the total HOLA.

Over the period the Bank reduced dependency on the wholesale deposits including certificate of deposits by increasing the share of retail (individual) deposits including CASA. The share of retail deposits to total domestic deposits increased from 48 per cent (March 2016) to 56 per cent (March 2017). The increased share of retail deposits marks the stability in the funding profile of the Bank, reducing the liquidity outflows under stress.

Under wholesale category, the Bank has separate deposits product with no premature withdrawal option (non-callable) to limit any funds outflows over the next 30 days.

During the FY 2016-17, the LCR of the Bank remained above the minimum requirement on all observed counts. The LCR moved up year on year from average of 84.92% (FY2015-16) to 110.02% (FY 2016-17). This was contributed on account of increased share of retail deposits (reducing the cash outflows), more realizable inflows within 30 days and higher HOLA.

Ouarter on quarter, the LCR (3 months average) of the Bank increased from 91.33% (June''16) to 99.74% (September''16) and to 115.42% (December''16).

For the quarter ending March 2017, the Bank has commenced the computation of the LCR on a daily basis. The LCR at 134.25% for quarter ending March 2017 is based on the daily average, covering 70 data points.

The LCR shows marked increase in December 2016 and March 2017 quarter, mainly on account of increase in retail deposits with withdrawal of Specified Bank Notes (SBNs) by the Government of India w.e.f., 9th November 2016.

The impact of derivative exposure, potential collateral calls and currency mismatch on the LCR of the Bank remained insignificant.

Bank''s wholly owned banking subsidiary “Canara Bank Tanzania Ltd.” started its operation in May 2016, and is consolidated for disclosure of consolidated LCR.

- Adequately pricing various risks in the credit exposure.

- Form part of an integrated system of risk management encompassing identification, measurement, monitoring and control.

Strategies and processes:

In order to realize the above objectives of Credit Risk Management, the Bank prescribes various methods for Credit Risk identification, measurement, grading and aggregation techniques, monitoring and reporting, risk control / mitigation techniques and management of problem loans / credits. The Bank has also defined target markets, risk acceptance criteria, credit approval authorities, and guidelines on credit origination/ maintenance procedures.

The strategies are framed keeping in view various measures for Credit Risk Mitigation, which includes identification of thrust areas and target markets, fixing of exposure ceiling based on regulatory guidelines and risk appetite of the Bank, Minimizing Concentration Risk, and pricing based on rating.

Bank from time to time would identify the potential and productive sectors for lending, based on the performance of the segments and demands of the economy. The Bank restricts its exposures in sectors which do not have growth potentials, based on the Bank''s evaluation of industries / sectors based on the prevailing economic scenario prospects, etc.

The operational processes and systems of the Bank relating to credit are framed on sound Credit Risk Management Principles and are subjected to periodical review.

The Bank has comprehensive credit risk identification processes as part of due diligence on credit proposals.

The structure and organization of the Credit Risk Management Function: Credit Risk Management Structure in the Bank is as under:-

i. Board of Directors

ii. Risk Management Committee of the Board (RMCB)

iii. Credit Risk Management Committee (CRMC)

iv. Model Review Technical Working Group (MRTWG)

v. General Manager-Risk Management Wing, H.O (Group Chief Risk Officer)

vi. Deputy General Manager (I&II), Risk Management Wing

vii. Credit Risk Management Department comprising of Credit Policy Section, Credit Analysis Cell and Credit Risk Management Section. The Credit Risk Management Section has three functional powers) are withdrawn and the committee approach for credit approval has been put in place. The Bank has in place specialized branches viz. Centralized Processing Units (CPUs), Retail Asset Hubs (RAHs) and SME Sulabhs at select cities to ease credit dispensation turnaround time and ensure specialized attention.

To enhance the control measures, a separate Credit Administration and Monitoring Wing is in place to undertake exclusive loan review, monitoring problem accounts, credit audit, etc. This ensures greater thrust on post sanction monitoring of loans and strengthen administering the various tools available under the Banks'' policies on loan review mechanism.

For effective loan review, the Bank has the following in place:

- Pre-release Audit System for compliance to sanction terms and conditions, abstention of stipulated collateral securities ensuring perfection of securities before disbursement etc.

- Credit Audit System to identify, analyze instances of non-compliance and rectification for all types of credit facilities sanctioned with credit limit of Rs,5 crore.

- Review of loan sanctioned by each sanctioning authority by the next higher authority.

- Mid Term Review of borrowable accounts beyond a certain level of exposure.

- Monitoring of Special Mention Accounts (SMA) at various levels. Formation of a Joint Lenders'' Forum (JLF) and formulation of Corrective Action Plan (CAP) in the case of consortium/JLA accounts, for early rectification or restructuring

- Monitoring tools like Credit Monitoring Format (web-based), Quarterly Information Systems, Half Yearly Operation Systems, Stock Audits etc.

- Credit Monitoring Officers at branches in charge of monitoring functions.

- A framework has been developed outlining a corrective action plan that will incentivize early identification of problem account, timely restructuring of accounts which are considered to be viable and taking prompt steps by lenders for recovery or sale thereby revitalizing the distressed accounts in the Bank.

- Bank has also put in place the scheme for Strategic Debt Restructuring (SDR) and Scheme for Sustainable Structuring of Stressed Asset (S4A) facilitate the resolution of eligible accounts. The Framework for Strategic Debt Restructuring (SDR) has put in place to address the issue of higher stake of promoters in reviving stressed accounts and enhance the bank''s capabilities to initiate change of ownership, where necessary, in case agreed critical conditions and viability milestones are achieved by the promoter. The S4A envisages determination of the sustainable debt level for a stressed borrower, and bifurcation of the outstanding debt into sustainable debt and equity / quasi-equity instruments which are expected to provide upside to the bank when the borrower turns around. The scheme is implemented in transparent manner, as per the guidelines of the RBI & IBA.

Definition and classification of Non-Performing Assets (NPAs):

The Bank classifies its advances (loans and credit substitutes in the nature of an advance) into performing and non-performing loans in accordance with the extant RBI guidelines. A non-performing asset (NPA) is a loan or an advance where:

- Interest and / or installment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of a Term Loan.

- The account remains ''out of order'' in respect of an Overdraft/Cash Credit (OD/CC). An account should be treated as ''out of order'' if the outstanding balance remains continuously in excess of the sanctioned limit/drawing power for 90 days. In cases where the outstanding balance in the principal operating account is less than the sanctioned limit/drawing power, but there are no credits continuously for 90 days as on the date of Balance Sheet or credits are not enough to cover the interest debited during the same period.

- The bill remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in the case of Bills Purchased and Discounted.

- The installment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for two crop seasons for short duration crops, and for one crop season for long duration crops.

- The amount of liquidity facility remains outstanding for more than 90 days, in respect of securitization transaction undertaken in terms of guidelines on securitization dated February 1, 2006.

- In respect of derivative transactions, the overdue receivables representing positive mark-to-market value of a derivative contracts, if these remain unpaid for a period of 90 days from the specified due date for payment.

Any amount due to Bank under any credit facility is ''overdue'' if it is not paid on the due date fixed by the Bank. Assets classification has been made borrower-wise and not facility-wise. In other words, when a particular facility of a borrower has become non-performing, all the facilities granted by the Bank to the borrower will be classified as NPA.

Irrespective of record of recovery, the bank identifies a borrower account as a NPA even if it does not meet any of the above mention criteria, where:

- Loan availed by a borrower are repeatedly restructured unless otherwise permitted by regulations;

- Loans availed by a borrowers are classified as fraud;

- Project does not commence commercial operations within the timelines permitted under the RBI guidelines in respect of loans extended to a borrower for the purpose of implementing a project; and

- Any security in nature of debenture/bonds/equity shares issued by a borrower and held by the Bank is classified as non-performing investment.

For loans held at the overseas branches, identification of NPA is based on the home country regulations (RBI Guidelines) or the host country regulations (overseas branch regulator''s guidelines), whichever is more stringent.

Further, NPA are classified into sub-standard, doubtful and loss assets based on the criteria stipulated by RBI. A sub-standard asset is one, which has remained a NPA for a period less than or equal to twelve month. An asset is classified as doubtful if it has remained in the sub-standard category for more than 12 months. A loss asset is one where loss has been identified by the Bank or internal or external auditors or during RBI inspection but the amount has not been written off fully.

TABLE DF - 32: CREDIT RISK: DISCLOSURES FOR PORTFOLIOS SUBJECT TO THE STANDARDIZED APPROACH

(i) Qualitative Disclosures (a) FOR PORTFOLIOS UNDER THE STANDARDIZED APPROACH:

- The Bank has recognized following credit rating agencies for the purpose of rating of an exposure & assigning risk weights for computation of capital charge under standardized approach.

Domestic Credit Rating Agencies:

- Brickwork Ratings India Private Limited (Brickwork)

- Credit Analysis & Research Limited (CARE)

- CRISIL Limited

- ICRA Limited,

- India Ratings and Research Private Limited (Formerly FITCH India)

- SMERA Ratings Limited

International Credit Rating Agencies:

- Standard & Poor

- Moody''s

- FITCH

Types of exposure for which each agency is used:

All the above agencies are recognized for rating all types of exposures.

A description of the process used to transfer public issue ratings onto comparable assets in the banking books:

- The Bank uses only publicly available solicited ratings that are valid and reviewed by the recognized External Credit Rating Agencies, referred as External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAI).

- Bank uses Bank Loan Rating for risk weighting the borrower''s exposures. Where Issuer Rating is available, the Bank uses such ratings unless the bank loan is specifically rated.

- The Bank does not simultaneously use the rating of one ECAI for one exposure and that of another ECAI for another exposure of the same borrower, unless the respective exposures are rated by only one of the chosen ECAIs. Further, the Bank does not use rating assigned to a particular entity within a corporate group to risk weight other entities within the same group.

- Running limits such as Cash Credit are treated as long term exposures and accordingly, long term ratings are used for assigning risk weights for such exposures.

- While mapping / applying the ratings assigned by the ECAIs, the Bank is guided by regulatory guidelines/ Bank''s Board approved Policy.

- Where exposures / borrowers have multiple ratings from the chosen ECAIs, the Bank has adopted the following procedure for risk weight calculations:

o If there are two ratings accorded by chosen ECAIs, which map into different risk weights, the higher risk weight is applied.

o If there are three or more ratings accorded by the chosen ECAIs which map into different risk weights, the ratings corresponding to the lowest

2 ratings are referred to and higher of those two risk weights is applied.

TABLE DF - 33: CREDIT RISK MITIGATION - DISCLOSURES FOR STANDARDIZED APPROACHES

(i) Qualitative disclosures

Policies and processes for collateral valuation and management: The Bank is having a Board approved collateral management policy which lays down the process, objectives, accepted types of collaterals and the framework including suitable management information system for effective collateral management. The Collaterals and guarantees properly taken and managed that would serve to:

- mitigate the risk by providing secondary source of repayment in the event of borrower''s default on a credit facility due to inadequacy in expected cash flow or not;

- gain control on the source of repayment in the event of default;

- provide early warning of a borrower''s deteriorating repayment ability; and

- Optimize risk weighted assets and to address Residual Risks adequately.

Bank uses a number of techniques to mitigate the credit risks to which they are exposed. The revised approach allows banks in India to adopt the Comprehensive Approach (under both the Standardized and IRB approaches) which allows fuller offset of collateral against exposures by effectively reducing the exposure amount by the value ascribed to the collateral. Under this approach, banks, which take eligible financial collateral, are allowed to reduce their credit exposure to the counterparty when calculating their capital requirements by taking into account the risk mitigating effect of the collateral.

Collateral Management process and practices of the Bank cover the entire activities comprising security and protection of collateral value, validity of collaterals and guarantees, and valuation / periodical inspection.

Valuation: Both the Fixed and the Current Assets obtained to secure the loans granted by the Bank are subjected to valuation by valuers empanelled by the Bank. Monetary limits of the accounts, asset classification of the borrower, which is to be subjected to valuation, periodicity of valuation, are prescribed in the Bank''s policy guidelines. Bank reviews the guidelines on valuation periodically.

Description of the main types of collateral taken by the Bank: The collateral commonly used by the Bank as risk mitigates comprises of Financial Collaterals (i.e. Cash, Bank deposits, Life Insurance policies, NSC, KVP, Government securities issued directly / by postal departments, equity shares of limited companies other than the Bank and approved by the Bank, debentures, units of mutual funds, debt securities etc.), different categories of moveable assets and immoveable assets / properties etc. However, for the purpose of computation of capital required under Standardized Approach, certain specific financial collaterals have been recognized as eligible collateral.

Main types of Guarantor counterparty and their creditworthiness: Bank obtains / accepts guarantees of sovereign, sovereign entities (including BIS, IMF, European Central Bank and European community as well as Multilateral Development Banks, ECGC and CGTMSE). Besides this, Bank also obtains Personal or Corporate guarantee having adequate net worth, as an additional comfort for mitigation of credit risk which can be translated into a direct claim on the guarantor, and are unconditional and irrevocable. The Creditworthiness of the guarantor is normally not linked to or affected by the borrower''s financial position. The Bank also accepts guarantee given by State / Central Government as a security comfort. Such Guarantees remain continually effective until the facility covered is fully repaid or settled or released.

Credit Risk Mitigation recognized by the Bank for the purpose of reducing capital requirement under New Capital Adequacy Framework (Basel II Norms): The Bank has recognized Cash, Bank''s own Deposits, Gold & Gold Jewellery as Credit Risk Mitigations for the purpose of reducing capital requirement under the New Capital Adequacy Framework (Basel III Norms).

Information about risk concentration within the mitigation taken: The Bank has already initiated steps for putting in place a data warehouse for a robust Management Information System (MIS) to facilitate management of Credit Risk and evaluation of effectiveness of collateral management including risk concentrations of collaterals.

The guidelines to banks on securitization of standard assets contain:

- The provisions relating to securitization of assets.

- Stipulations regarding transfer of standard assets through direct assignment of cash flows.

The bank''s existing policy guidelines deals with purchase of pools from an originator (Bank/NBFC/FI). Purchase of assets through Direct Assignment of cash flows from originating NBFCs/Banks/FIs shall be only from those rated ''AA'' and above. The Bank shall purchase a portfolio or a part of portfolio of standard assets under Housing Loan; Loans Against Property and MSME sanctioned at floating rates only.

Policy sets out requirements like restrictions on purchase of loans; constitution of eligible borrowers in the pool; standards for due diligence - KYC compliance, requirements to be complied with prior to disbursement in respect of borrowers in the purchased pool of assets; due diligence of the originator, Stress testing; credit monitoring.

Bank can purchase loans from other banks/FIs/NBFCs in India only if the seller has explicitly disclosed to the bank that it will adhere to the Minimum Retention Requirement on an ongoing basis and disclosed the adherence to the Minimum holding period criteria as prescribed in the policy.

The bank monitors the purchase transactions on an ongoing basis at certain intervals and takes appropriate action wherever required. The general prescription laid down in the Master policy on Credit Risk Management with regard to loan review mechanism and monitoring is applicable to securitization transactions.

The exposure to the originator shall be within the prudential exposure ceilings stipulated by the Bank.

TABLE DF - 36: INTEREST RATE RISK IN THE BANKING BOOK (IRRBB)

(i) Qualitative Disclosures

Interest Rate Risk in Banking Book (IRRBB)

Interest Rate Risk in Banking Book (IRRBB) refers to the current or prospective risk to the bank''s capital and earnings arising from adverse movements in interest rates. With change in interest rates the underlying value of Bank''s assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items also gets altered and so its economic value.

Changes in interest rates also affect a bank''s earnings or net interest income (NII) in the short term - on account of re-pricing gaps between its rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. Three main types of interest rate risk include:

(a) Gap risk arises from the term structure of banking book instrument and the extent of re-pricing gap between rate sensitive assets (RSA) and rate sensitive liabilities (RSL).

(b) Basis risk - the impact of relative changes in interest rates for RSA and RSL that have similar re-pricing but are linked to different interest rate curve.

(c) Option risk in the Bank mainly arises from explicit or embedded options in a bank''s assets, liabilities and/or off-balance sheet items, where the bank or its customer can alter the level and timing of their cash flows.

Organizational Framework

The Board of Directors approves the broad business strategy and overall policies governing the IRRBB. It is responsible for setting appropriate limits, adequate systems and standards for measuring.

Monitoring and management of IRRBB is delegated to the Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and is responsible for adherence to the policies and business strategy as per the risk limit articulated in terms of both earnings and economic value by the Board of Directors. Basing on the likely interest rate movement, the ALCO decides on the business mix, strategy to manage and control the risk by taking early remedial actions.

Strategies and Processes

The Bank strives to match the re-pricing gap between its rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities including off-balance sheet items across significant currencies. Interest rate risk in banking book is measured and monitored using Traditional Gap Analysis (TGA) and the Duration Gap Analysis (DGA) to Bank''s global position on a monthly basis.

Using TGA approach, the re-pricing gaps between RSA and RSL are measured and monitored across different time bands. The re-pricing gap may impact Bank''s earning for adverse rate movement in the short term up to one year. It is assessed by giving parallel rate shocks and is monitored against the set tolerance limit termed Earning at Risk.

Under DGA approach, the change in the value of Bank''s assets less liability for a given interest rate shock is assessed using modified duration approach. The extent of the gap between modified duration of RSA and RSL gives the prospective change in the value of assets less liability to the net-worth of the Bank termed as change in Market Value of Equity (MVE). MVE under IRRBB is measured and monitored against the set limit.

With regard to branches the assets and liabilities of overseas branches are merged with the domestic operation and a consolidated Balance Sheet is drawn for the Bank as a whole. The total liability of overseas branches forms part of the liabilities of the Banks annual balance sheet.

Hence, there is no additional financial impact of LOCs issued on behalf of branches. In respect of representative Office, there are no commercial operations undertaken and hence no financial impacts of LOC issued to host country regulators.

As at 31st march 2015, there is no financial impact of LOCs issued favoring the overseas Regulators for our Bank since the same are issued on behalf of branches and Representative offices. In terms of RBI guidelines, we propose to disclose the details of LOCs issued by the Bank so far and "NIL" financial impact on account of such LOCs, under "Notes to Accounts" in the Balance Sheet as at March 2015.

6.4.1 Provision Coverage Ratio is 57.29% as on 31.03.2015 (Previous Year 60.11%)

6.14 Reserve Bank of India vide its communication Number DBOD.No.BP.BC. 85 /21.06.200/2013- 14 dated January 15, 2014 advised the Bank to provide incremental provision and capital with regard to bank''s exposure to entities with unhedged foreign currency exposures. Accordingly for the financial year 2014-15, bank has made a incremental provision of Rs 84.56 Crore towards unhedged foreign currency exposure. Further, Bank is also holding a capital of Rs 250.98 Crore as on 31.03.2015 towards the risk on unhedged foreign currency exposure.

Policies to manage currency induced credit risk with regard to Unhedged Foreign Currency Exposure:

In respect of borrower entities having foreign currency exposure, Bank is computing Unhedged Foreign Currency Exposure (UFCE); Annual Earnings before interest and Depreciation (EBID); expected loss in case of movement in USD-INR exchange rate using annualized volatilities. Expected loss on account of exchange rate movements is expressed as a percentage of EBID i.e likely loss/ EBID percentage. As a prudential measure, Bank is holding incremental capital and made incremental provisioning (over and above the extant standard assets provisioning) on the total credit exposure to such entities at the specified rates.

Qualitative disclosure around LCR

The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) is to promote the short term resilience of the liquidity risk profile of the banks. It is effective from 1st January 2015 with minimum LCR requirement of 60% to be stepped up by 10% annually to reach 100% by 1st January 2019.

LCR basically ensures that the Bank maintains an adequate stock of unencumbered high quality liquid assets (HQLA) that can be converted easily and immediately into cash to meet liquidity needs for a 30 calendar day liquidity stress scenario.

The Bank has maintained monthly average LCR of 64.95% for the quarter ended March 2015. The main drivers of LCR are the level of HQLA and the net cash outflows in the next 30 days. The prime variables which determines the HQLA of the Bank includes cash, excess CRR surplus SLR securities, 2% of the mandatory SLR under MSF, 5% of the mandatory SLR under FALLCR as level 1 assets and forms 93.72% of the total HQLA. Level 2A and 2B assets are considered to be less liquid than level 1 asset forms 6.28% of the total HQLA.

Net cash outflow in the next 30 days which is the denominator in LCR is the cash outflow minus cash inflow and is 23.92% of the NDTL. Cash outflows are more than the cash inflows mainly on account of followings:

1. Major percentage of Bank''s deposits is callable within the LCR horizon of 30 days.

2. Cash outflows expected on account of contractual and contingent funding obligations extended by the Bank to the counterparties are also relatively high.

3. Inflows are mainly from performing assets which are contractually due up-to 30 days.

CDCRM (Comprehensive Data and System Architecture on Credit Risk Management) for establishing a robust credit data warehouse for all MIS requirements, computation of Risk Weighted Assets (RWA), generate various credit related reports for review of exposure and monitoring, and conducting analysis of credit portfolio from various angles.

Policies for hedging and / or mitigating risk and strategies and processes for monitoring the continuing effectiveness of hedges / mitigants:

The Bank primarily relies on the borrowers financial strength and debt servicing capacity while approving credits. The Bank does not excessively rely on collaterals or guarantees as a source of repayment or as a substitute for evaluating borrowers creditworthiness. The Bank does not deny credit facilities to those assessed as credit worthy for mere want of adequate collaterals.

In order to manage the Banks credit risk exposure, the Bank has adopted credit appraisal and approval policies and procedures that are reviewed and updated by the Risk Management Wing at Head office in consultation with other functional/Wings. The credit appraisal and approval process is broadly divided into credit origination, appraisal, assessment and approval, and dispensation.

Corporate finance and project finance loans are typically secured by a first lien on fixed assets, normally consisting of property, plant and equipment. The Bank also takes security of pledge of financial assets like marketable securities and obtains corporate guarantees and personal guarantees wherever appropriate. Working Capital loans are typically secured by a first lien on current assets, which normally consist of inventory and receivables.

The Bank has laid down detailed guidelines on documentation to ensure legal certainty of Banks charge on collaterals.

The Banks policy is to ensure portfolio diversification and evaluate overall financing exposure in a particular industry / sector in the light of forecasts of growth and profitability for that industry, and the risk appetite of the Bank. The Bank monitors exposures to major sectors of the economy and specifically exposure to various industries and sensitive sectors. Exposure to industrial activities is subjected to the credit exposure ceilings fixed by the Bank based on the analysis on performance of the industry. The Banks exposures to single and group borrowers as also substantial exposure is monitored and restricted within the prudential ceiling norms advised by Reserve Bank of India from time to time.

The credit origination is through the grass root level ably assisted by the branch net work and the Circle Offices. The process of identification, application is carried out before commencing an in depth appraisal, due diligence and assessment.

The credit approval process is a critical factor and commences with the mandatory credit risk rating of the borrower as a pre sanction exercise. The measurement of Credit Risk associated with the borrower evaluates indicative factors like, borrowers financial position, cash flows, activity, current market trends, past trends, management capabilities, experience with associated business entities, nature of facilities etc. The Bank has now in place centralized processing centres for Housing and personal loans at select cities to ease credit dispensation, reduce turnaround time and ensure specialized attention.

The Bank has anexclusive set up for credit monitoring functions now, after hiving off the same from Risk Management Wing. This is to have greater thrust on post sanction monitoring of loans and strengthen administeringthe various tools available underthe Banks policies on loan review mechanism.

For effective loan review, the Bank has the following in place:

Credit Audit System to identify, analyze instances of non-compliance arid rectification.

Review of loan sanctioned by each sanctioning authority by the next higher authority.

MidTerm Review of borrowal accounts.

Monitoring tools like Credit Monitoring Format, Quarterly Information Systems, Half Yearly Operation Systems, Stock Audits, Special Watch List Accounts, etc.

Credit Monitoring Officers in charge of monitoring functions.

Loans Past due and Impaired: As per the prudential norms applied for income recognition, asset classification and provisioning, the Bank considers following categories of loans and advances as Non-performing Assets, wherein:

Interest and/or installment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of a Term Loan.

The account remains out of order in respect of an Overdraft/Cash Credit (OD/CC). The bill remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in the case of Bills Purchased and Discounted.

In case of agricultural advances, interest and/or installment of principal remains overdue for 2 crop seasons (in respect of short duration crops) & 1 crop season (in respect of longduration crops).

Any amount receivable that remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of other accounts.

Interest charged during any quarter is not serviced fully within 90 days from the end of the quarter.

Wherever available, the Bank uses Facility Rating or Bank Loan Rating for risk weighting the borrowers exposures. Where Issuer Rating is available, the Bank uses such ratings unless the bank loan is specifically rated.

The Bank does not simultaneously use the rating of one ECAI for one exposure and that of another ECAI for another exposure of the same borrower, unless the respective exposures are rated by only one of the chosen ECAIs. Further, the Bank does not use rating assigned to a particular entity within a corporate group to risk weight other entities within the same group.

Running limits such as Cash Credit are treated as long term exposures 5nd accordingly, long term ratings are used for assigning risk weights for such exposures.

While mapping/applying the ratings assigned by the ECAIs, the Bank is guided by the regulatory guidelines/Banks Board approved Policy.

Where exposures/ borrowers have multiple ratings from the chosen ECAIs, the Bank has adopted the following procedure for risk weight calculations:

- If there are two ratings accorded by chosen ECAIs, which map into different risk weights, the higher risk weight is applied.

- If there are three or more ratings accorded by the chosen ECAIs which map into different risk weights, the ratings corresponding to the lowest 2 ratings are referred to and higher of those two risk weights is applied.

With the deregulation of interest rates, liberalization of exchange rate system, development of secondary markets for bonds and deepening and widening of financial system, Banks are exposed to Interest Rates Risk, Liquidity Risk, Exchange Rate Risk etc., Asset Liability Management outlays a comprehensive and dynamic framework for measuring, monitoring and managing various risks. Primary objective of ALM is maximizing the Net Interest Income within the overall risk bearing capacity of the Bank.

Various Stress Tests are conducted by varyingthe liquidity and interest rate structure to estimate the resilience and ortheimpact.lt evaluates the Earnings at Risk by means of parallel shift in the interest rates across assets and liabilities as also basis risk. The Market Value of Equity is determined by means of Duration Gap Analysis and Modified Duration by varying interest rates and its correspondingcorrelation to equity.

The StressTests on liquidity are carried out by assuming stress conditions wherein Embedded Options are exercised like prepayment of loans and premature closure of deposits much above the revelations of the Behavioral Studies to test the stress levels. Behavioral Studies are also being conducted on various parameters to study the secular and seasonal trends to arrive at more accu rateflows.
