PREFACEWe know that final the project is for the development and enhancement of the knowledge

in particular field. It can never be possible to make a mark in today’s competitive era

only with theoretical knowledge when industries are developing at global level, practical

knowledge of administration and management of business is very important. Hence,

practical study is of great importance to PGDM student

Banking is a highly information intensive activity that relies heavily on information

technology (IT) to acquire, process, and deliver the information to all relevant customers.

Banks used the Internet technology as a strategic weapon to revolutionize the way they

operate, deliver, and compete against each other. Although a complete turnaround in

banking sector performance is not expected till the completion of reforms, signs of

improvement are visible in some indicators under the CAMEL framework. Under this

bank is required to enhance capital adequacy, strengthen asset quality, improve

management, increase earnings and reduce sensitivity to various financial risks.

Amongst these reforms and restructuring the CAMELS Framework has its own

contribution to the way modern banking is looked up on now. The attempt here is to see

how various ratios have been used and interpreted to reveal a bank’s performance and

how this particular model encompasses a wide range of parameters making it a widely

used and accepted model in today’s scenario.

We have undergone our Grand Project at CORPORATION BANK, AHMEDABAD. We

feel great pleasure to present this report work after our training at CORPORATION

BANK that produced to be golden opportunity for us by enriching our knowledge by

comparing our theoretical knowledge with the managerial skill and application. Simple

language has been used throughout the report. Report is illustrated with figure, charts and

diagrams as and when required.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARYIn today’s scenario, the banking sector is one of the fastest growing sector and a lot of

funds are invested in Banks. Also today’s banking system is becoming more complex.

So, we thought of evaluating the performance of the banks. There are so many models of

evaluating the performance of the banks, but we have chosen the CAMELS Model to

evaluate the performance of the banks. We have read a lot of books and found it the best

model because it measures the performance of the banks from each parameter i.e. Capital,

Assets, Management, Earnings and Liquidity.

After deciding the model, we have decided to take two public bank and two private bank

for comparison. We have collected annual reports of all the banks. And we have

calculated ratios for all the banks and interpreted them.

After that we have given weightage to each parameter of the CAMELS Model.

According to their importance and our understandings, we have allocated weightage to

the each ratios of the each parameter. From the weighted results of each ratio, we got

percentage on the bases of the performance of the bank. On the basis of total derived, we

have given ranking to the banks.

Ranking as per our analysis,

1. Kotak Mahindra Bank

2. Bank of Baroda

3. Corporation Bank

4. Karur Vysya Bank

1.1 The Bank

The word bank means an organization where people and business can invest or borrow

money; change it to foreign currency etc. According to Halsbury “A Banker is an

individual, Partnership or Corporation whose sole pre-dominant business is banking, that

is the receipt of money on current or deposit account, and the payment of cheque drawn

and the collection of cheque paid in by a customer.’’

1.2 The Origin and Use of Banks

The Word ‘Bank’ is derived from the Italian word ‘Banko’ signifying a bench, which was

erected in the market-place, where it was customary to exchange money. The Lombard

Jews were the first to practice this exchange business, the first bench having been

established in Italy A.D. 808. Some authorities assert that the Lombard merchants

commenced the business of money-dealing, employing bills of exchange as remittances,

about the beginning of the thirteenth century.

About the middle of the twelfth century it became evident, as the advantage of coined

money was gradually acknowledged, that there must be some controlling power, some

corporation which would undertake to keep the coins that were to bear the royal stamp up

to a certain standard of value; as, independently of the ‘sweating’ which invention may

place to the credit of the ingenuity of the Lombard merchants- all coins will, by wear or

abrasion, become thinner, and consequently less valuable; and it is of the last importance,

not only for the credit of a country, but for the easier regulation of commercial

transactions, that the metallic currency be kept as nearly as possible up to the legal

standard. Much unnecessary trouble and annoyance has been caused formerly by

negligence in this respect.

The gradual merging of the business of a goldsmith into a bank appears to have been the

way in which banking, as we now understand the term, was introduced into England; and

CAMEL Framework Page 11

Page 12: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

it was not until long after the establishment of banks in other countries-for state purposes,

the regulation of the coinage, etc. that any large or similar institution was introduced into

England. It is only within the last twenty years that printed cheques have been in use in

that establishment. First commercial bank was Bank of Venice which was established in

1157 in Italy.

1.3 THE BANKING REFORMS

In 1991, the Indian economy went through a process of economic liberalization, which

was followed up by the initiation of fundamental reforms in the banking sector in 1992.

The banking reform package was based on the recommendations proposed by the

Narasimham Committee Report (1991) that advocated a move to a more market oriented

banking system, which would operate in an environment of prudential regulation and

transparent accounting. One of the primary motives behind this drive was to introduce an

element of market discipline into the regulatory process that would reinforce the

supervisory effort of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Market discipline, especially in

the financial liberalization phase, reinforces regulatory and supervisory efforts and

provides a strong incentive to banks to conduct their business in a prudent and efficient

manner and to maintain adequate capital as a cushion against risk exposures. Recognizing

that the success of economic reforms was contingent on the success of financial sector

reform as well, the government initiated a fundamental banking sector reform package in

1992. Banking sector, the world over, is known for the adoption of multidimensional

strategies from time to time with varying degrees of success. Banks are very important

for the smooth functioning of financial markets as they serve as repositories of vital

financial information and can potentially alleviate the problems created by information

asymmetries. From a central bank’s perspective, such high-quality disclosures help the

early detection of problems faced by banks in the market and reduce the severity of

market disruptions.

Consequently, the RBI as part and parcel of the financial sector deregulation, attempted

to enhance the transparency of the annual reports of Indian banks by, among other things,

CAMEL Framework Page 12

Page 13: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

introducing stricter income recognition and asset classification rules, enhancing the

capital adequacy norms, and by requiring a number of additional disclosures sought by

investors to make better cash flow and risk assessments.

During the pre-economic reforms period, commercial banks & development financial

institutions were functioning distinctly, the former specializing in short & medium term

financing, while the latter on long term lending & project financing. Commercial banks

were accessing short term low cost funds thru savings investments like current accounts,

savings bank accounts & short duration fixed deposits, besides collection float.

Development Financial Institutions (DFIs) on the other hand, were essentially depending

on budget allocations for long term lending at a concessionary rate of interest. The

scenario has changed radically during the post reforms period, with the resolve of the

government not to fund the DFIs through budget allocations. DFIs like IDBI, IFCI &

ICICI had posted dismal financial results. Infect, their very viability has become a

question mark. Now, they have taken the route of reverse merger with IDBI bank &

ICICI bank thus converting them into the universal banking system.

1.4 BASEL II ACCORD

Bank capital framework sponsored by the world's central banks designed to promote

uniformity, make regulatory capital more risk sensitive, and promote enhanced risk

management among large, internationally active banking organizations. The International

Capital Accord, as it is called, will be fully effective by January 2008 for banks active in

international markets. Other banks can choose to "opt in," or they can continue to follow

the minimum capital guidelines in the original Basel Accord, finalized in 1988. The

revised accord (Basel II) completely overhauls the 1988 Basel Accord and is based on

three mutually supporting concepts, or "pillars," of capital adequacy. The first of these

pillars is an explicitly defined regulatory capital requirement, a minimum capital-to-asset

ratio equal to at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Second, bank supervisory agencies,

such as the Comptroller of the Currency, have authority to adjust capital levels for

CAMEL Framework Page 13

Page 14: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

individual banks above the 8% minimum when necessary. The third supporting pillar

calls upon market discipline to supplement reviews by banking agencies.

Basel II is the second of the Basel Accords, which are recommendations on banking laws

and regulations issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The purpose of

Basel II, which was initially published in June 2004, is to create an international standard

that banking regulators can use when creating regulations about how much capital banks

need to put aside to guard against the types of financial and operational risks banks face.

Advocates of Basel II believe that such an international standard can help protect the

international financial system from the types of problems that might arise should a major

bank or a series of banks collapse. In practice, Basel II attempts to accomplish this by

setting up rigorous risk and capital management requirements designed to ensure that a

bank holds capital reserves appropriate to the risk the bank exposes itself to through its

lending and investment practices. Generally speaking, these rules mean that the greater

risk to which the bank is exposed, the greater the amount of capital the bank needs to

hold to safeguard its solvency and overall economic stability.

Main Aim:

1. Ensuring that capital allocation is more risk sensitive;

2. Separating operational risk from credit risk, and quantifying both;

3. Attempting to align economic and regulatory capital more closely to reduce the scope

for regulatory arbitrage.

Basel II has largely left unchanged the question of how to actually define bank capital,

which diverges from accounting equity in important respects. The Basel I definition, as

modified up to the present, remains in place.

CAMEL Framework Page 14

Page 15: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

The Accord in operation

Basel II uses a "three pillars" concept – (1) minimum capital requirements (addressing

risk), (2) supervisory review and (3) market discipline – to promote greater stability in

the financial system.

The Three Pillars of Basel II

The Basel I accord dealt with only parts of each of these pillars. For example: with

respect to the first Basel II pillar, only one risk, credit risk, was dealt with in a simple

manner while market risk was an afterthought; operational risk was not dealt with at all.

The First Pillar

The first pillar deals with maintenance of regulatory capital calculated for three major

components of risk that a bank faces: credit risk, operational risk and market risk. Other

risks are not considered fully quantifiable at this stage. The credit risk component can be

calculated in three different ways of varying degree of sophistication, namely

standardized approach, Foundation IRB and Advanced IRB. IRB stands for "Internal

Rating-Based Approach". For operational risk, there are three different approaches - basic

indicator approach or BIA, standardized approach or TSA, and advanced measurement

approach or AMA. For market risk the preferred approach is VAR (value at risk). As the

Basel 2 recommendations are phased in by the banking industry it will move from

standardized requirements to more refined and specific requirements that have been

developed for each risk category by each individual bank. The upside for banks that do

develop their own bespoke risk measurement systems is that they will be rewarded with

potentially lower risk capital requirements. In future there will be closer links between

the concepts of economic profit and regulatory capital.

CAMEL Framework Page 15

Page 16: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Credit Risk can be calculated by using one of three approaches

1. Standardized Approach

2. Foundation IRB (Internal Ratings Based) Approach

3. Advanced IRB Approach

The standardized approach sets out specific risk weights for certain types of credit risk.

The standard risk weight categories are used under Basel 1 and are 0% for short term

government bonds, 20% for exposures to OECD Banks, 50% for residential mortgages

and 100% weighting on commercial loans. A new 150% rating comes in for borrowers

with poor credit ratings. The minimum capital requirement( the percentage of risk

weighted assets to be held as capital) remains at 8%. For those Banks that decide to adopt

the standardized ratings approach they will be forced to rely on the ratings generated by

external agencies. Certain Banks are developing the IRB approach as a result.

The Second Pillar

The second pillar deals with the regulatory response to the first pillar, giving regulators

much improved 'tools' over those available to them under Basel I. It also provides a

framework for dealing with all the other risks a bank may face, such as systemic risk,

pension risk, concentration risk, strategic risk, reputation risk, liquidity risk and legal

risk, which the accord combines under the title of residual risk. It gives banks a power to

review their risk management system.

The Third Pillar

The third pillar greatly increases the disclosures that the bank must make. This is

designed to allow the market to have a better picture of the overall risk position of the

bank and to allow the counterparties of the bank to price and deal appropriately. The new

Basel Accord has its foundation on three mutually reinforcing pillars that allow banks

and bank supervisors to evaluate properly the various risks that banks face and realign

regulatory capital more closely with underlying risks. The first pillar is compatible with

CAMEL Framework Page 16

Page 17: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

the credit risk, market risk and operational risk. The regulatory capital will be focused on

these three risks. The second pillar gives the bank responsibility to exercise the best ways

to manage the risk specific to that bank. Concurrently, it also casts responsibility on the

supervisors to review and validate banks’ risk measurement models. The third pillar on

market discipline is used to leverage the influence that other market players can bring.

This is aimed at improving the transparency in banks and improves reporting.

1.5 CAMEL RATING SYSTEM

The CAMEL rating system is based upon an evaluation of five critical elements of a

credit union's operations: Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality, Management, Earnings and

Asset/Liability Management. This rating system is designed to take into account and

reflect all significant financial and operational factors examiners assess in their

evaluation of a credit union's performance. Credit unions are rated using a combination of

financial ratios and examiner judgment.

Since the composite CAMEL rating is an indicator of the viability of a credit union, it is

important that examiners rate credit unions based on their performance in absolute terms

rather than against peer averages or predetermined benchmarks. The examiner must use

professional judgment and consider both qualitative and quantitative factors when

analyzing a credit union's performance. Since numbers are often lagging indicators of a

credit union's condition, the examiner must also conduct a qualitative analysis of current

and projected operations when assigning CAMEL ratings.

Although the CAMEL composite rating should normally bear a close relationship to the

component ratings, the examiner should not derive the composite rating solely by

computing an arithmetic average of the component ratings. Following are general

definitions the examiner should use for assigning the credit union's CAMEL composite

rating:

CAMEL Framework Page 17

Page 18: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

1.6 NEED OF CAMEL RATING SYSTEM IN BANKS

In 1979, the bank regulatory agencies created the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating

System (UFIRS). Under the original UFIRS a bank was assigned ratings based on

performance in five areas: the adequacy of Capital, the quality of Assets, the capability of

Management, the quality and level of Earnings and the adequacy of Liquidity. Bank

supervisors assigned a 1 through 5 rating for each of these components and a composite

rating for the bank. This 1 through 5 composite rating was known primarily by the

acronym CAMEL.

A bank that received a CAMEL of 1 was considered sound in every respect and generally

had component ratings of 1 or 2 while a bank with a CAMEL of 5 exhibited unsafe and

unsound practices or conditions, critically deficient performance and was of the greatest

supervisory concern. While the CAMEL rating normally bore close relation to the five

component ratings, it was not the result of averaging those five grades. Rather,

supervisors consider each institution's specific situation when weighing component

ratings and, more generally, review all relevant factors when assigning ratings.

CAMEL ratings reflect the excellent banking conditions and performance over the last

several years. There is a need for bank employees to have sufficient knowledge of the

rating system, in order to guide the banking growth rate in the positive direction. Lack of

knowledge among employees regarding banking performance indicators affects banks

negatively as these are the basis for any banking action.

CAMEL Framework Page 18

Page 19: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

2.1 CAPITAL

Capital base of financial institutions facilitates depositors in forming their risk perception

about the institutions. Also, it is the key parameter for financial managers to maintain

adequate levels of capitalization. Moreover, besides absorbing unanticipated shocks, it

signals that the institution will continue to honor its obligations. The most widely used

indicator of capital adequacy is capital to risk-weighted assets ratio (CRWA). According

to Bank Supervision Regulation Committee (The Basle Committee) of Bank for

International Settlements, a minimum 8 percent CRWA is required. Capital adequacy

ultimately determines how well financial institutions can cope with shocks to their

balance sheets. Thus, it is useful to track capital-adequacy ratios that take into account the

most important financial risks—foreign exchange, credit, and interest rate risks—by

assigning risk weightings to the institution’s assets.

Capital cushions fluctuations in earnings so that credit unions can continue to operate in

periods of loss or negligible earnings. It also provides a measure of reassurance to the

members that the organization will continue to provide financial services. It serves to

support growth as a free source of funds and provides protection against insolvency.

While meeting statutory capital requirements is a key factor in determining capital

adequacy, the credit union’s operations and risk position may warrant additional capital

beyond the statutory requirements. Maintaining an adequate level of capital is a critical

element.

Determining the adequacy of a credit union's capital begins with a qualitative evaluation

of critical variables that directly bear on the institution's overall financial condition. The

examiner should also consider the interrelationships with the other areas:

Capital level and trend analysis;

Compliance with earnings transfers requirements and risk-based net worth

requirements;

Composition of capital;

CAMEL Framework Page 19

Page 20: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Interest and dividend policies and practices;

Adequacy of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses account; Quality, type,

liquidity and diversification of assets, with particular reference to classified

assets;

Loan and investment concentrations;

Growth plans;

Ability of management to control and monitor risk, including credit and interest

rate risk;

Earnings: Good historical and current earnings performance enables a credit

union to fund its growth, remain competitive, and maintain a strong capital

position;

Liquidity and funds management;

Economic Environment.

Capital Risk Adequacy Ratio:

CRAR is a ratio of Capital Fund to Risk Weighted Assets. Reserve Bank of India

prescribes Banks to maintain a minimum Capital to risk-weighted Assets Ratio (CRAR)

of 9 % with regard to credit risk, market risk and operational risk on an ongoing basis, as

against 8 % prescribed in Basel documents.

Total capital includes tier-I capital and Tier-II capital. Tier-I capital includes paid up

equity capital, free reserves, intangible assets etc. Tier-II capital includes long term

unsecured loans, loss reserves, hybrid debt capital instruments etc. The higher the CRAR,

the stronger is considered a bank, as it ensures high safety against bankruptcy.

CRAR = Capital/ Total Risk Weighted Credit Exposure

CAMEL Framework Page 20

Page 21: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Debt Equity Ratio:

This ratio indicates the degree of leverage of a bank. It indicates how much of the bank

business is financed through debt and how much through equity. This is calculated as the

proportion of total asset liability to net worth. ‘Outside liability’ includes total borrowing,

deposits and other liabilities. ‘Net worth’ includes equity capital and reserve and surplus.

Higher the ratio indicates less protection for the creditors and depositors in the banking

system.

Debt Equity Ratio = Borrowings/ (Share Capital + reserves)

Total Advance to Total Asset Ratio:

This is the ratio of the total advanced to total asset. This ratio indicates banks

aggressiveness in lending which ultimately results in better profitability. Higher ratio of

advances of bank deposits (assets) is preferred to a lower one. Total advances also

include receivables. The value of total assets is excluding the revolution of all the assets.

Total Advance to Total Asset Ratio = Total Advances/ Total Asset

Government Securities to Total Investments:

The percentage of investment in government securities to total investment is a very

important indicator, which shows the risk taking ability of the bank. It indicates a bank’s

strategy as being high profit high risk or low profit low risk. It also gives a view as to the

availability of alternative investment opportunities. Government securities are generally

considered as the most safe debt instrument, which, as a result, carries the lowest return.

Since government securities are risk free, the higher the government security to

investment ratio, the lower the risk involved in a bank’s investments.

Government Securities to Total Investments = Government Securities/ Total

Investment

CAMEL Framework Page 21

Page 22: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

2.2 ASSET QUALITY

Asset quality determines the robustness of financial institutions against loss of value in

the assets. The deteriorating value of assets, being prime source of banking problems,

directly pour into other areas, as losses are eventually written-off against capital, which

ultimately jeopardizes the earning capacity of the institution. With this backdrop, the

asset quality is gauged in relation to the level and severity of non-performing assets,

adequacy of provisions, recoveries, distribution of assets etc. Popular indicators include

nonperforming loans to advances, loan default to total advances, and recoveries to loan

default ratios.

The solvency of financial institutions typically is at risk when their assets become

impaired, so it is important to monitor indicators of the quality of their assets in terms of

overexposure to specific risks, trends in nonperforming loans, and the health and

profitability of bank borrowers— especially the corporate sector. Share of bank assets in

the aggregate financial sector assets: In most emerging markets, banking sector assets

comprise well over 80 per cent of total financial sector assets, whereas these figures are

much lower in the developed economies. Furthermore, deposits as a share of total bank

liabilities have declined since 1990 in many developed countries, while in developing

countries public deposits continue to be dominant in banks. In India, the share of banking

assets in total financial sector assets is around 75 per cent, as of end-March 2008.

There is, no doubt, merit in recognizing the importance of diversification in the

institutional and instrument-specific aspects of financial intermediation in the interests of

wider choice, competition and stability. However, the dominant role of banks in financial

intermediation in emerging economies and particularly in India will continue in the

medium-term; and the banks will continue to be “special” for a long time. In this regard,

it is useful to emphasise the dominance of banks in the developing countries in promoting

non-bank financial intermediaries and services including in development of debt-markets.

Even where role of banks is apparently diminishing in emerging markets, substantively,

they continue to play a leading role in non-banking financing activities, including the

CAMEL Framework Page 22

Page 23: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

development of financial markets. One of the indicators for asset quality is the ratio of

non-performing loans to total loans (GNPA). The gross non-performing loans to gross

advances ratio is more indicative of the quality of credit decisions made by bankers.

Higher GNPA is indicative of poor credit decision-making.

NPA: Non-Performing Assets

Advances are classified into performing and non-performing advances (NPAs) as per

RBI guidelines. NPAs are further classified into sub-standard, doubtful and loss assets

based on the criteria stipulated by RBI. An asset, including a leased asset, becomes

nonperforming\ when it ceases to generate income for the Bank.

An NPA is a loan or an advance where:

1. Interest and/or installment of principal remains overdue for a period of more than

90 days in respect of a term loan.

2. The account remains "out-of-order'' in respect of an Overdraft or Cash Credit

(OD/CC).

3. The bill remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in case of bills

purchased and discounted.

4. A loan granted for short duration crops will be treated as an NPA if the

installments of principal or interest thereon remain overdue for two crop seasons.

5. A loan granted for long duration crops will be treated as an NPA if the

instalments of principal or interest thereon remain overdue for one crop season

The Bank classifies an account as an NPA only if the interest imposed during any quarter

is not fully repaid within 90 days from the end of the relevant quarter. This is a key to the

stability of the banking sector. There should be no hesitation in stating that Indian banks

have done a remarkable job in containment of non-performing loans (NPL) considering

the overhang issues and overall difficult environment. For 2008, the net NPL ratio for the

Indian scheduled commercial banks at 2.9 per cent is ample testimony to the impressive

efforts being made by our banking system. In fact, recovery management is also linked to

CAMEL Framework Page 23

Page 24: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

the banks’ interest margins. The cost and recovery management supported by enabling

legal framework hold the key to future health and competitiveness of the Indian banks.

No doubt, improving recovery-management in India is an area requiring expeditious and

effective actions in legal, institutional and judicial processes.

Asset quality is rated in relation to:

The quality of loan underwriting, policies, procedures and practices;

The level, distribution and severity of classified assets;

The level and composition of nonaccrual and restructured assets;

The ability of management to properly administer its assets, including the timely

identification and collection of problem assets;

The existence of significant growth trends indicating erosion or improvement in

asset quality;

The existence of high loan concentrations that present undue risk to the credit

union;

The appropriateness of investment policies and practices;

The investment risk factors when compared to capital and earnings structure; and

the effect of fair (market) value of investments vs. book value of investments

Total Loans/Total Shares

Total Loans/Total Assets

Fair (Market) Value / Book value

CAMEL Framework Page 24

Page 25: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Gross NPA ratio:

This ratio is used to check whether the bank's gross NPAs are increasing quarter on

quarter or year on year. If it is, indicating that the bank is adding a fresh stock of bad

loans. It would mean the bank is either not exercising enough caution when offering

loans or is too lax in terms of following up with borrowers on timely repayments.

Net NPA ratio:

Net NPAs reflect the performance of banks. A high level of NPAs suggests high

probability of a large number of credit defaults that affect the profitability and net-worth

of banks and also wear down the value of the asset.

Loans and advances usually represent the largest asset of most of the banks. It monitors

the quality of the bank loan portfolio. The higher the ratio, the higher the credits risk.

2.3 MANAGEMENT

Management of financial institution is generally evaluated in terms of capital adequacy,

asset quality, earnings and profitability, liquidity and risk sensitivity ratings. In addition,

performance evaluation includes compliance with set norms, ability to plan and react to

changing circumstances, technical competence, leadership and administrative ability. In

effect, management rating is just an amalgam of performance in the above-mentioned

areas. Sound management is one of the most important factors behind financial

institutions’ performance. Indicators of quality of management, however, are primarily

applicable to individual institutions, and cannot be easily aggregated across the sector.

Furthermore, given the qualitative nature of management, it is difficult to judge its

soundness just by looking at financial accounts of the bank.

Management is the most forward-looking indicator of condition and a key determinant of

whether a credit union is able to correctly diagnose and respond to financial stress. The

management component provides examiners with objective, and not purely subjective,

indicators. An assessment of management is not solely dependent on the current financial

condition of the credit union and will not be an average of the other component ratings.

Total Advance to Total Deposit Ratio:

This ratio measures the efficiency and ability of the banks management in converting

theVdeposits available with the banks (excluding other funds like equity capital, etc.) into

high earning advances. Total deposits include demand deposits, saving deposits, term

deposit and deposit of other bank. Total advances also include the receivables.

Business per Employee:

Revenue per employee is a measure of how efficiently a particular bank is utilizing its

employees. Ideally, a bank wants the highest business per employee possible, as it

denotes higher productivity. In general, rising revenue per employee is a positive sign

that suggests the bank is finding ways to squeeze more sales/revenues out of each of its

employee.

Total Income/ No. of Employees

Profit per Employee:

This ratio shows the surplus earned per employee. It is arrived at by dividing profit after

tax earned by the bank by the total number of employee. The higher the ratio shows good

efficiency of the management.

2.4 EARNINGS

Earnings and profitability, the prime source of increase in capital base, is examined with

regards to interest rate policies and adequacy of provisioning. In addition, it also helps to

support present and future operations of the institutions. The single best indicator used to

gauge earning is the Return on Assets (ROA), which is net income after taxes to total

asset ratio.

Strong earnings and profitability profile of banks reflects the ability to support present

and future operations. More specifically, this determines the capacity to absorb losses,

finance its expansion, pay dividends to its shareholders, and build up an adequate level of

capital. Being front line of defense against erosion of capital base from losses, the need

for high earnings and profitability can hardly be overemphasized. Although different

indicators are used to serve the purpose, the best and most widely used indicator is Return

on Assets (ROA). However, for in-depth analysis, another indicator Net Interest Margins

(NIM) is also used. Chronically unprofitable financial institutions risk insolvency.

Compared with most other indicators, trends in profitability can be more difficult to

interpret—for instance, unusually high profitability can reflect excessive risk taking.

Return on Assets (ROA):

An indicator of how profitable a company is relative to its total assets. ROA gives an idea

as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. Calculated by

dividing a company's annual earnings by its total assets, ROA is displayed as a

percentage. Sometimes this is referred to as "return on investment".

The continued viability of a credit union depends on its ability to earn an appropriate

return on its assets. It enables a credit union to fund expansion, remain competitive, and

replenish and/or increase capital. In evaluating and rating earnings, it is not enough to

review past and present performance. Future performance is of equal or greater value,

including performance under various economic conditions. Examiners should evaluate

"core" earnings: that is the long-run earnings ability of a credit union discounting

CAMEL Framework Page 28

Page 29: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

temporary fluctuations in income and one-time items. A review for the reasonableness of

the credit union's budget and underlying assumptions is appropriate for this purpose. Key

factors to consider when assessing the credit union's earnings are:

Level, growth trends, and stability of earnings, particularly return on average

assets;

Quality and composition of earnings;

Adequacy of valuation allowances and their effect on earnings;

Future earnings prospects under a variety of economic conditions;

Net interest margin;

Net non-operating income and losses and their effect on earnings;

Quality and composition of assets;

Net worth level;

Sufficiency of earnings for necessary capital formation

Operating Profit by Average Working Fund:

This ratio indicates how much a bank can earn from its operations net of the operating

expenses for every rupee spent on working funds. Average working funds are the

total resources (total assets or total liabilities) employed by a bank. It is daily average

of total assets/ liabilities during a year. The higher the ratio, the better it is. This ratio

determines the operating profits generated out of working fund employed. The better

utilization of the funds will result in higher operating profits. Thus, this ratio will

indicate how a bank has employed its working funds in generating profits.

Operating Profit/ Average Working Fund

CAMEL Framework Page 29

Page 30: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Net Profit to Average Asset:

Net profit to average asset indicates the efficiency of the banks in utilizing their assets

in generating profits. A higher ratio indicates the better income generating capacity of

the assets and better efficiency of management. It is arrived at by dividing the net

profit by average assets, which is the average of total assets in the current year and

previous year.

Thus, this ratio measures the return on assets employed. Higher ratio indicates better

earning potential in the future.

Net Profit/ Average Asset

Interest Income to Total Income:

Interest income is a basic source of revenue for banks. The interest income total

income indicates the ability of the bank in generating income from its lending. In

other words, this ratio measures the income from lending operations as a percentage

of the total income generated by the bank in a year. Interest income includes income

on advances, interest on deposits with the RBI, and dividend income.

Interest Income/ Total Income

Other Income to Total Income:

Fee based income account for a major portion of the bank’s other income. The bank

generates higher fee income through innovative products and adapting the technology

for sustained service levels. The higher ratio indicates increasing proportion of fee-

based income. The ratio is also influenced by gains on government securities, which

fluctuates depending on interest rate movement in the economy.

Other Income/ Total Income

2.5 LIQUIDITY

An adequate liquidity position refers to a situation, where institution can obtain sufficient

funds, either by increasing liabilities or by converting its assets quickly at a reasonable

cost. It is, therefore, generally assessed in terms of overall assets and liability

management, as mismatching gives rise to liquidity risk. Efficient fund management

refers to a situation where a spread between rate sensitive assets (RSA) and rate sensitive

liabilities (RSL) is maintained. The most commonly used tool to evaluate interest rate

exposure is the Gap between RSA and RSL, while liquidity is gauged by liquid to total

asset ratio.

Initially solvent financial institutions may be driven toward closure by poor management

of short-term liquidity. Indicators should cover funding sources and capture large

maturity mismatches

The “L” of CAMEL represents the concept of Asset/Liability Management - the

identification, monitoring and control of:

Interest rate risk sensitivity and exposure

Liquidity risk and control

Technical competence in asset/liability management techniques

Cash maintained by the banks and balances with central bank, to total asset ratio (LQD)

is an indicator of bank's liquidity. In general, banks with a larger volume of liquid assets

are perceived safe, since these assets would allow banks to meet unexpected withdrawals.

CAMEL Framework Page 31

Page 32: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Liquidity Asset to Total Asset:

Liquidity for a bank means the ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due.

Bank lending finances investments in relatively illiquid assets, but it fund its loans with

mostly short term liabilities. Thus one of the main challenges to a bank is ensuring its

own liquidity under all reasonable conditions. Liquid assets include cash in hand, balance

with the RBI, balance with other banks (both in India and abroad), and money at call and

short notice. Total asset include the revaluations of all the assets. The proportion of liquid

asset to total asset indicates the overall liquidity position of the bank.

Liquidity Asset/ Total Asset

Government Securities to Total Asset:

Government Securities are the most liquid and safe investments. This ratio measures the

government securities as a proportion of total assets. Banks invest in government

securities primarily to meet their SLR requirements, which are around 25% of net

demand and time liabilities. This ratio measures the risk involved in the assets hand by a

bank

Government Securities/ Total Asset

Approved Securities to Total Asset:

Approved securities include securities other than government securities. This ratio

measures the Approved Securities as a proportion of Total Assets. Banks invest in

approved securities primarily after meeting their SLR requirements, which are around

25% of net demand and time liabilities. This ratio measures the risk involved in the assets

hand by a bank.

Approved Securities/ Total Asset

CAMEL Framework Page 32

Page 33: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

Liquidity Asset to Demand Deposit:

This ratio measures the ability of a bank to meet the demand from deposits in a particular

year. Demand deposits offer high liquidity to the depositor and hence banks have to

invest these assets in a highly liquid form.

Liquidity Asset/ demand Deposit

Liquidity Asset to Total Deposit:

This ratio measures the liquidity available to the deposits of a bank. Total deposits

include demand deposits, savings deposits, term deposits and deposits of other financial

institutions. Liquid assets include cash in hand, balance with the RBI, balance with other

banks (both in India and abroad), and money at call and short notice.

6.1 REASONS FOR WEIGHTAGE

1. Capital

CAMEL Framework Page 68

Page 69: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

In Capital ratios, we have given 0.5 to capital adequacy ratio as it is the most

important ratio which has significant impact on capital of the bank. Second most

important ratio which affects the capital ratio is debt – equity ratio and rest of

them are of low impact.

2. Assets

In assets Ratio, we have highest importance to Net GPA which shows clear

picture how well company is performing with its assets. Secondly Gross NPA is

given is not given so much importance compared to Net NPAs. Other ratios like

fair value to market value, totals loans to total assets are given equal importance.

3. Management

In management ratios, there is no specific ratio which has specific importance. All

ratios have equal impact so here we have equal weightage to all the ratios.

4. Earnings

In Earnings ratios, there is no specific ratio which has specific importance. All

ratios have equal impact so here we have equal weightage to all the ratios.

5. Liquidity

In Liquidity ratios, there is no specific ratio which has specific importance. All

ratios have equal impact so here we have equal weightage to all the ratios.

CHART 2

Notes:

1. The net non-performing assets to loans (advances) ratio is used as a measure of

the overall quality of the bank’s loan book. Higher ratio reflects rising bad quality

of loans. But here NPA percentage of Karur Vysya Bank is just 0.25% which

shows bank is performing well and it is able to recover its debt. The Bank has

maintained high standard in asset quality through appropriate risk management

measures and recovery measures as evidenced by lower NPA levels. Here as

compared to its peers it has lowest ratio which is better.

2. The loans to assets ratio measures the total loans outstanding as a percentage of

total assets. The higher this ratio indicates a bank is loaned up and its liquidity is

low. The higher the ratio, the more risky a bank may be to higher defaults. Here

the ratio for all the banks is almost same.

CAMEL Framework Page 74

Page 74: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

3. Market value ratios are strong indicators of what investors think of the firm’s past

performance and future prospects. It basically shows Goodwill or Reputation of

the bank in the market. Here Kotak Mahindra Bank is highly reputed in the minds

of investors.

4. So overall in Assets Ratio, Kotak Mahindra Bank is on top position as compared

to its peers.

5. If we compare only public banks, again Bank Of Baroda is ahead than

Corporation Bank.

Rank 3 – Corporation Bank represents performance that is flawed to some degree and is

of supervisory concern. Performance is marginal. Risk management practices may be less

than satisfactory. In order to improve their position, it should maintain the capital and

Assets ratio so that it will be able to compete with their competitors.

Rank 4 –Karur Vysya Bank refers to poor performance that is of serious supervisory

concern. Risk management practices are generally unacceptable and the Bank should try

to improve its operations. It is performing Good in Earnings but Management and

Liquidity of the bank is not up to the mark and should give more importance to these

factors in order to be at the par with other banks.

RECOMMENDATION

Corporation Bank is excellent in Earnings ratio but lacks in other ratio like

Capital, Assets, and Liquidity etc.

If we compare Corporation Bank with Bank Of Baroda i.e. both Public bank,

Bank of Baroda’s Liquidity ratio is quite good. So, Corporation Bank should

improve its liquidity ratio. The Major difference is due to Liquid assets to

Demand Deposits ratio.

Corporation bank’s fair market value to book value ratio is the lowest of the entire

banks. This shows Corporation Bank should create more awareness among the

people through Targeting youngsters as well as providing new schemes in order to

attract more customers.

The banks should adapt themselves quickly to the changing norms.

The system is getting internationally standardized with the coming of BASELL II

accords so the Indian banks should strengthen internal processes so as to cope

with the standards.

The banks should try to maintain a 0% NPA by always lending and investing or

creating quality assets which earn returns by way of interest and profits.

Corporation bank is performing well in Management, earnings and Liquidity but

lacking in Capital and Assets Management.

The Bank should focus more on managing Asset as it is at the last position

compared to other banks.

Even in Capital Management, Kotak Mahindra Bank is having almost 22% capital

adequency ratio whereas corporation bank is having 13.66% which is lowest of all

banks mentioned in the report.

CONCLUSION

The current Banking Crisis, which is quite unprecedented, underlines the importance of

regulatory issues and the effects of incompetence in this area. CAMEL, as a rating system

for judging the soundness of Banks is a quite useful tool, that can help in mitigating the

conditions and risks that lead to Bank failures.

The report makes an attempt to examine and compare the performance of four different

banks of India i.e. Corporation Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Karur Vysya Bank and

Bank Of Baroda. The analysis is based on the CAMEL Model. The study has brought

many interesting results, some of which are mentioned as below:

CAMEL Framework Page 89

Page 89: Camel Rating ( Framework) of Four Banks

All the three banks have succeeded in maintaining CRAR at a higher level than the

prescribed level, 9%. But KOTAK MAHINDRA BANK has maintained highest

i.e.19.86%. It is very good sign for the bank to survive and to expand in future.

In Management Quality, we have found that Business per Employee Ratio and Profit per

Employee Ratio is more in CORPORATION BANK AND BANK OF BARODA. This

shows the growth of the bank as well as efficiency of the employee, which is very good

in both the banks and they will help to the bank to grow in future.

After evaluating all the ratios, calculations and ratings we have given 1st Rank to

KOTAK MAHINDRA BANK, 2nd Rank to BANK OF BARODA, 3rd Rank to

CORPORATION BANK and 4th to KARUR VYSYA BANK.
