INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
In recent days, people are becoming more aware about the management of their resources. As
the banks do business by lending their depositors' money, they are more responsible to
manage their credit portfolio smoothly. Bank's reputation is a critical factor for its success
and therefore Govt. banks must follow appropriate guidelines, policies and relevant manuals
regarding credit extension and recovery. The usage of banking service for any type of
financial activities is increasing day by day. People are taking loans not only to start
businesses but also it uses other purposes. It is now most important to know the internal
credit processes of the banks.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Loans that constitute a large proportion of the assets in most banks' portfolios are
relatively illiquid and exhibit the highest CR (Koch and MacDonald, 2000). The theory
of asymmetric information argues that it may be impossible to distinguish good
borrowers from bad borrowers (Auronen, 2003), which may result in adverse selection
and moral hazards problems. Adverse selection and moral hazards have led to substantial
accumulation of non‐performing accounts in banks (Bester, 1994; Bofondi and Gobbi,
2003). The very existence of banks is often interpreted in terms of its superior ability to
overcome three basic problems of information asymmetry, namely ex ante, interim and
ex post (Uyemura and Deventer, 1993). The management of CR in banking industry
follows the process of risk identification, measurement, assessment, monitoring and
control. It involves identification of potential risk factors, estimate their consequences,
monitor activities exposed to the identified risk factors and put in place control measures
to prevent or reduce the undesirable effects. This process is applied within the strategic
and operational framework of the bank.
Considerations that form the basis for sound CRM system include: policy and strategies
(guidelines) that clearly outline the scope and allocation of a bank credit facilities and
the manner in which a credit portfolio is managed, i.e. how loans are originated,
appraised, supervised and collected (Basel, 1999; Greuning and Bratanovic, 2003)has
been recommended by, among others, Derban et al. (2005). The recommendation has
been widely put to use in the banking sector in the form of credit assessment. According
to the asymmetric information theory, a collection of reliable information from
prospective borrowers becomes critical in accomplishing effective screening.
The assessment of borrowers can be performed through the use of qualitative as well as
quantitative techniques. One major challenge of using qualitative models is their
subjective nature (Bryant, 1999; Chijoriga, 1997). However, borrowers attributes
assessed through qualitative models can be assigned numbers with the sum of the values
compared to a threshold. This technique is termed as “credit scoring” (Heffernan,
1996; Uyemura and Deventer, 1993). The technique cannot only minimize processing
costs but also reduce subjective judgments and possible biases (Kraft, 2000;Bluhm et al.,
2003; Derban et al., 2005). The rating systems if meaningful should signal changes in
expected level of loan loss (Santomero, 1997). Chijoriga (1997)concluded that
quantitative models make it possible to, among others, numerically establish which
factors are important in explaining default risk, evaluate the relative degree of
importance of the factors, improve the pricing of default risk, be more able to screen out
bad loan applicants and be in a better position to calculate any reserve needed to meet
expected future loan losses.
Clear established process for approving new credits and extending the existing credits
has been observed to be very important while managing CR (Heffernan, 1996). Further,
monitoring of borrowers is very important as current and potential exposures change
with both the passage of time and the movements in the underlying variables
(Donaldson, 1994; Mwisho, 2001), and also very important in dealing with moral hazard
problem (Derban et al., 2005). Monitoring involves, among others, frequent contact with
borrowers, creating an environment that the bank can be seen as a solver of problems and
trusted adviser; develop the culture of being supportive to borrowers whenever they are
recognized to be in difficulties and are striving to deal with the situation; monitoring the
flow of borrower's business through the bank's account; regular review of the borrower's
reports as well as an on‐site visit; updating borrowers credit files and periodically
reviewing the borrowers rating assigned at the time the credit was granted (Donaldson,
1994; Treacy and Carey, 1998; Tummala and Burchett, 1999; Mwisho, 2001).
Tools like covenants, collateral, credit rationing, loan securitization and loan syndication
have been used by banks in developing the world in controlling credit losses (Benveniste
and Berger, 1987; Greenbaum and Thakor, 1987; Berger and Udell, 1992; Hugh, 2001).
It has also been observed that high‐quality CRM staffs are critical to ensure that the
depth of knowledge and judgment needed is always available, thus successfully
managing the CR in the CBs (Koford and Tschoegl, 1997;Wyman, 1999). Donaldson
(1999) and Jeremy and Stein (1999) observed that computers are useful in credit
analysis, monitoring and control, as they make it easy to keep track on trend of credits
within the portfolio. Marphatia and Tiwari (2004) argued that risk management is
primarily about people – how they think and how they interact with one another.
Technology is just a tool; in the wrong hands it is useless. This stresses further the
critical importance of qualified staff in managing CR. presents a summary of the CRM
system as explained in the literature.

to the expected level due to increase of operating expenses and a huge amount of interest
could not be considered as income. The operating profit was marginally higher in the
previous year, i.e., BDT 10,720.50 million.

Investment income
The investment income of the bank came to BDT 16,597.90 million from 18,260.44 million
of 2015, which is 9.10 percent lower than that of preceding year. This negative position was
mainly due to lower investments portfolio.
The non-interest income consists of the commission, fees, exchange and other operating
income of the bank. Total non-interest income of the bank experienced a negative growth of
10.81 percent i.e. from 6,763.21 million of 2015 to BDT 6,032.29 million in 2016.
Commission and exchange income decreased by BDT 780.72 million (15.66) percent during
the year 2016 mainly due to lower volume of import and export business as well as lower
remittance inflow during 2016.
Deposits
Overall deposits of the bank increased by 12.82 percent and stood at BDT 641,819.15 million
at the end of 2016. The savings deposits increased to BDT 1,37,840.78 million from BDT
114,590.51 million of the preceding year showing a growth of 20.29 percent. The low cost
deposit includes savings deposit, current deposit and short term deposit. This helps to bring
the ratio of high cost and low cost deposit to 54:46 which is considered as standard level.
This growth is facilitated by extended branch network and expected service provided to
customers as well as special initiatives carried out for mobilization of cost free and low cost
deposits during the year.

Default Probability
Credit Exposure
Recovery Rate
There are some objectives behind a written credit risk management of Janata Bankthat are as
follows:
Credit default risk- The risk of loss arising from a debtor being unlikely to pay its loan
obligations in full or the debtor is more than 90 days past due on any material credit
obligation. Default risk may impact all credit-sensitive transactions, including loans,
securities and derivatives.
Concentration risk - The risk associated with any single exposure or group of exposures with
the potential to produce large enough losses to threaten a bank's core operations. It may arise
in the form of single name concentration or industry concentration.
Country risk - The risk of loss arising from sovereign state freezing foreign currency
payments (transfer/conversion risk) or when it defaults on its obligations (sovereign risk).
4.6 Under credit risk management the following tasks are also done
Collect all relevant data from different models and information systems for analyzing
risk.
Assess the quality, completeness and correctness of all relevant data needed to analyze
risks.
Highlight risky portfolios and deficiencies of the bank on timely manner with
recommendations and suggestions.
Analyze data through preparation of paper named risk management paper.
Identify, evaluate, control and monitor major risks in line with the standard set in the
policy guideline to avoid necessary loss and ensure the banks in pricing
all risk correctly .
Review market conditions and take precautionary measures towards facing abnormal
market situation.
Ensure through independent oversight that different risks are identified, evaluated,
monitored and reported within the established risk management frame work.
The Credit Risk Grading (CRG) is a collective definition based on the pre- specified scale
and reflects the underlying credit-risk for a given exposure.
A Credit Risk Grading deploys a number/ alphabet/ symbol as a primary summary indicator
of risks associated with a credit exposure.
Credit Risk Grading is the basic module for developing a Credit Risk Management system.
Janata Bank Ltd. applies the following credit risk grading matrix as provided by Bangladesh
Bank guidelines.

a. Credit Processing/Appraisal
Credit processing is the stage where all required information on credit is gathered
andapplications are screened. Credit application forms should be sufficiently detailed
topermit gathering of all information needed for credit assessment at the outset. In
b. Credit Approval/Sanction
A financial institution must have in place writtenprocess and the approval authorities of
individuals or committees as well as the basisof those decisions. Approval authorities should
be sanctioned by the board ofdirectors. Approval authorities will cover new credit appcredits,
and changes in terms and conditions of previously approved credits,particularly credit
restructuring, all of which should be fully documented andrecorded. Prudent credit practice
requires that persons empowered withapproval authority should not also have the customer
relationship responsibility.Depending on the size of the financial institution, it should develop
a corps of creditrisk specialists who have high level expertise and experience and
demonstratejudgment in assessing, approving and managing credit risk. An accountability
regimeshould beestablished for the decisiontrail of decisions taken, with proper identification
of individuals/committees involveAll this must be properly documented.
c. Credit Documentation
Documentation is an essential part of the credit process and is required for each phaseSof the
credit cycle, including credit application, credit analysis, credit approval, creditmonitoring,
and collateral valuation, and impairment recognition, foreclosure ofimpaired loan and
realization of security. The format of credit files must bestandardized and files neatly
maintained with an appropriate system of cross-indexingto facilitate review and follow
up.The Bangladesh Bank will pay particular attention to the quality of files and thesystems in
place for their maintenance. Documentation establishes the relationshipbetween the financial
institution and the borrower and forms the basis for any legal action in a court of law.
Institutions must ensure that contractual agreements with their borrowers are vetted by their
legal advisers. For security reasons, financial institutions should consider keeping only the
copies of critical documents (i.e., those of legal value, facility letters, and signed loan
agreements) in credit files while retaining the originals in more secure custody. Credit files
should also be stored in fire-proof cabinets and should not be removed from the
institution’spremises. Financial institutions should maintain a checklist that can show that all
their policies and procedures ranging from receiving the credit application to the
disbursement of funds have been complied with. The checklist should also include the
identity of individual(s) and/or committee(s) involved in the decision-making process.
d. Credit Administration
The Credit Administration function is critical in ensuring that proper documentation and
approvals are in place prior to the disbursement of loan facilities. For this reason, it is
essential that the functions of Credit Administration be strictly segregated from Relationship
Management/Marketing in order to avoid the possibility of control being compromised or
issues not being highlighted at the appropriate level. A financial institution’s credit
administration function should, as a minimum, ensure that
:
-Credit Administration procedures should be in place to ensure the following. credit files are
neatly organized, cross-indexed, and their removal from the premises is not permitted;
-the borrower has registered the required insurance policy in favor of the bank and is
regularly paying the premiums;
-credit facilities are disbursed only after all the contractual terms and conditions have been
met and all the required documents have beenreceived;
-collateral value is regularly monitored;
-the borrower is making timely repayments on interest, principal and any agreed to fees and
commissions;
-the established policies and procedures as well as relevant laws and regulations are complied
with; and
-On-site inspection visits of the borrower’s business are regularly conducted and assessments
documented.
e. Disbursement
Once the credit is approved, the customer should be advised of the terms and conditions of
the credit by wa5y of a letter of offer. The duplicate of this letter should be duly signed and
returned to the institution by the customer. The facility disbursement process should start
only upon receipt of this letter and should involve,inter alia, the completion of formalities
regarding documentation, the registration of collateral, insurance cover in the institution’s
favor and the vetting of documents by algal expert. Under no circumstances shall funds be
released prior to compliance withpre-disbursement conditions and approval by the relevant
authorities in the financial institution.
-funds advanced are used only for the purpose stated in the customer’s credit application;
-financial condition of a borrower is regularly tracked and management advised in a timely
fashion;
-collateral coverage is regularly assessed and related to the borrower’s financial health;
-The institution’s internal risk ratings reflect the current condition of the customer.
h. Credit Classification
It is required for the board of directors of a financial institution to “establish credit risk
management policy, and credit impairment recognition and measurement policy, the
associated internal controls, documentation processes and information systems;”Credit
classification process grades individual credits in terms of the expected degree of
recoverability. Financial institutions must have in place the processes and controls to
implement the board approved policies, which will, in turn, be in accord with the proposed
guideline. They should have appropriate criteria for credit provisioning and write off.
International Accounting Standard 39 requires that financial institutions shall, in addition to
individual credit provisioning, assess credit impairment and ensuing provisioning on a credit
portfolio basis. Financial institutions must, therefore, establish appropriate systems and
processes to identify credits with similar characteristics in order to assess the degree of their
recoverability on a portfolio basis. Financial institutions should establish appropriate systems
and controls to ensure that collateral continues to be legally valid and enforceable and its net
realizable value improperly determined. This is particularly important for any delinquent
credits, before netting off the collateral’s value against the outstanding amount of the credit
i. Classified Loans
Banks are financial service firm, producing and selling professional management of the
public’s funds as well as performing many other roles in the economy. But now-days
commercial banks are not performing their activities smoothly for a large burden of default
loan. Every year Janata Bank distributes thousand core taka among individuals, organizations
etc. but a large sum of these distributed fund cannot be recovered in due time. The Bank has
to classify this loan.
-Signs for Classification
First and foremost requirement for any and all credit managers is to identify problem credit in
its earlier stages by recognizing the signs of deterioration. Such signs include but not limited
to the following:
-Non-payment of interest or principal or both on due dates or past dues beyond reasonable
period or recurring past dues.
-In case of Overdraft no movement in the account beyond a reasonable period.
-Deterioration in financial condition of the client, as gathered from client’s latest financial
statement.
-A shortfall in collateral coverage, particularly if the collateral was a key factoring the
decision-making.
-Death or withdraw of key-owners or management personnel.
-Company filing for bankruptcy or voluntary dissolution.
-Adverse market report about the company itself or its principal owners.
-Loan Classification Guidelines from Bangladesh Bank
Classification of overdue loans and advances opened a new era in the credit management of
commercial banks in Bangladesh. Before 1989 no specific guidelines were followed by the
commercial banks for this purpose. In 1989, Bangladesh Bank issued BCD circular
No.34/1989 stating specific rules and conditions of loan classification. After that each
schedule banks except BKB, RAKUB, and BSB would-be responsible for its own loan
classification according to the guidelines ispresented in the following table:
According to this circular loans and advances were classified on a loan by loan basis rather
sample classification. This process was continued till 1994. Bangladesh Bank further issued a
circular in1995 (BCD circular#20/1994). The title of the circular was “Revised rules of
classification and provisioning of loans and advances,” which came into implementation from
January 1, 1995
The Recovery procedure of Janata Bank is the ultimate combination of time, effort of money.
It follows several procedural steps to recover the lending amount, which isjoint effort of
Bank, society and legal institutions. There are several programs taken by the bank to recover
the disbursed loans. They are discussed hereafter.
i. Send final notice: If the borrower fails to repay the loan within the sanctioned period for
repayment then he or she is given an additional period for the repayment of the loan attaching
a final notice for the repayment as well.
ii. Send legal notice: When the borrower fails to repay the loan even after the additional
period and the final notice, the credit administration of JBL sends algal notice to the borrower
mentioning that if he or she is not capable to repay the loan within a specific time then the
bank will file a suit in the court against him or her.
iii. Eventually sue a case against the party: Finally, the bank, not getting any repayment
from the borrower, suits a case against the defaulter according to the respective law. Then the
decision of the court will be final for the recovery process and both the party and bank will
have to abide by the law. These are the general procedures for recovery of loan followed by
Janata Bank Ltd.
Amendment of section 13 of Act N.14 of 1991: In section 13 of the said Act- the words
"previous financial year", wherever they are mentioned, the words "accounting year" the
following explanation shall be added, namely: - "For the purpose of this section, demand
liabilities and temporary liabilities shall not include the paid-up capital, the consolidated
fund, the liabilities shown in the profit and loss account and loans received from the
Bangladesh Bank and interbank liabilities."
• Credit Assessment
A thorough credit and risk assessment should be conducted prior to the granting of
loans, and at least annually thereafter for all facilities. The results of this assessment
• Borrower Analysis:
The majority shareholders, management team and group or affiliate companies should
be assessed. Any issues regarding lack of management depth, complicated ownership
structures or intergroup transactions should be addressed, and risks mitigated Industry
analysis.
strength of the borrower’s balance sheet. Specifically, cash flow, leverage and
profitability must be analyzed.
All Banks should adopt a credit risk grading system. The system should define the
risk profile of borrower’s to ensure that account management, structure and pricing
are commensurate with the risk involved. Risk grading is a key measurement of a
bank’s asset quality, and as such, it is essential that grading is a robust process. All
facilities should be assigned a risk grade. Where deterioration in risk is noted, the
Risk Grade assigned to a borrower and its facilities should be immediately changed.
Borrower Risk Grades should be clearly stated on Credit Applications. The following
Risk Grade Matrix is provided as an example. The more conservative risk grade
(higher) should be applied if there is a difference between the personal judgment and
the Risk Grade Scorecard results. It is recognized that the banks may have more or
less Risk Grades; however, monitoring standards and account management must be
appropriate given the assigned Risk Grade:
Approval Authority
The authority to sanction/approve loans must be clearly delegated to senior credit executives
by the Managing Director/CEO & Board based on the executive’s knowledge and experience.
Approval authority should be delegated to individual executives and not to committees to
ensure accountability in the approval process. The following guidelines should apply in the
approval/sanctioning of loans:
• Credit approval authority must be delegated in writing from the MD/CEO & Board
(as appropriate), acknowledged by recipients, and records of all delegation retained in
CRM.
• The role of Credit Committee may be restricted to only review of proposals i.e.
Recommendations or review of bank’s loan portfolios.
• All credit risks must be authorized by executives within the authority limit delegated
to them by the MD/CEO. The “pooling” or combining of authority limits should not
be permitted.
• Any credit proposal that does not comply with Lending Guidelines, regardless of
amount, should be referred to Head Office for Approval.
• MD/Head of Credit Risk Management must approve and monitor any cross border
exposure risk.
Segregation of Duties
The purpose of the segregation is to improve the knowledge levels and expertise in each
department, to impose controls over the disbursement of authorized loan facilities and obtain
an objective and independent judgment of credit proposals.
Internal Audit
Banks should have a segregated internal audit/control department charged with conducting
audits of all departments. Audits should be carried out annually, and should ensure
compliance with regulatory guidelines, internal procedures, and Lending Guidelines and
Bangladesh Bank requirements.
Key Responsibilities
The key responsibilities of the above functions are as follows:
o Oversight of the bank’s credit policies, procedures and controls relating to all credit
risks arising from corporate/commercial institutional banking, personal banking, &
treasury operations.
o Oversight of the bank’s asset quality.
o Directly manage all Substandard, Doubtful & Bad and Loss accounts to maximize
recovery and ensure that appropriate and timely loan loss provisions have been made.
4.16Approval Process
The approval process must reinforce the segregation of Relationship Management/ Marketing
from the approving authority. The responsibility for preparing the Credit Application should
rest with the RM within the corporate/commercial banking department. Credit Applications
should be recommended for approval by the RM team and forwarded to the approval team
within CRM and approved by individual executives. Banks may wish to establish various
thresholds, above which, the recommendation of the
Head of Corporate/Commercial Banking is required prior to onward recommendation to
CRM for approval. In addition, banks may wish to establish regional credit centres within the
approval team to handle routine approvals. Executives in head office CRM should approve all
large loans. The recommending or approving executives should take responsibility for and be
held accountable for their recommendations or approval. Delegation of approval limits should
be such that all proposals where the facilities are up to 15% of the bank’s capital should be
approved at the CRM level, facilities up to 25% of capital should be approved by CEO/MD,
with proposals in excess of 25% of capital to be approved by the EC/Board only after
recommendation of CRM, Corporate Banking and MD/CEO.
Credit Administration
The Credit Administration function is critical in ensuring that proper documentation and
approvals are in place prior to the disbursement of loan facilities. For this reason, it is
essential that the functions of Credit Administration be strictly segregated from Relationship
Management/Marketing in order to avoid the possibility of controls being compromised or
issues not being highlighted at the appropriate level. Credit Administration procedures should
be in place to ensure the following:
Disbursement:
Security documents are prepared in accordance with approval ter
enforceable. Standard loan facility documentation that has been reviewed by legal counsel
should be used in all cases. Exceptions should be referred to legal counsel for advice based
on authorization from an appropriate executive in CRM. Disbursements under loan facilities
are only be made when all security documentation is in place. CIB report should
reflect/include the name of all the lenders with facility, limit & outstanding. All formalities
regarding large loans & loans to Directors should be guided by Bangladesh Bank circulars &
related section of Banking Companies Act. All Credit Approval terms have been met.
Custodial Duties:
Loan disbursements and the preparation and storage of security documents should be
centralized in the regional credit centers. Appropriate insurance coverage is maintained (and
renewed on a timely basis) on assets pledged as collateral. Security documentation is held
under strict control, preferably in locked fireproof storage.
Compliance Requirements:
All required Bangladesh Bank returns are submitted in the correct format in a timely manner.
Bangladesh Bank circulars/regulations are maintained centrally, and advised to all relevant
departments to ensure compliance. All third party
service providers (value’s, lawyers,
insurers, CPAs etc.) are approved and performance reviewed on an annual basis. Banks are
referred to Bangladesh Bank circular outlining approved external audit firms that are
acceptable.

on loan and advances. The higher provision was in the year is 2013 the amount of it was

Interpretation: The figure shows the both tendency of occurring loss. First three years, the
percentage of loss of classified loans and advances increased from 60.455 to 74.86%. It
indicates that the management of credit was higher risky and that loss of classified Loans and
Advances reduced the asset of the Janata Bank Ltd. And it affected the profitability of JBL.
But in the year of 2016, The authority emphasized on the credit risk management which
reduced the risk and loss . As a result of the percentage of loss decreased (66.52%) compared
the highest loss of (74.86%) in the year of 2015 through it was also higher than the year of
2013(60.45%) and 2014 (64.2%). After all we can hope it graduality does well as loss is
deckling.
Figure 5.4.3 Percentage of all risk under risk weighted asset (RWA) in 2015
Figure 5.4.3 Percentage of all risk under risk weighted asset (RWA) in 2016
Interpretation:From theabove picture, credit risk is the highest position of 80% along
with the two risk market risk 10% and operational risk is 10% which are only 20%. The
highest percentageof credit risk indicates that success in banking is extremely dependent on
the proper management of credit risk.And in 2015 CR is 84% which is a sign of alarming
report. The more efficient the management the less risk is associated with the credit risk
policy & practices. The bodyof knowledge must be concerned about how to lessen the CR for
the benefit of the bank.
Here, I will analyze the CRM performance of Janata Bank using some ratios of Standard
and NPLs loans because I think ratio is the best tools for analyzing any types of
performance of a financial institutions.

Interpretation:
The above figure shows that the stander loan to total ratio is increasing on average through in
2014 it was decreasing than previous year. It also shows 91.53% in2016. It indicates that total
loan is nearest to standard. It can be interpreted that credit risk is manage well.
From the above figure of ratio of Standard Loan to Total Loans and Advances of Janata
Bank Bank Ltd., we can see that in year 2013 the ratio declined .Otherwise in other four years
the ratio increases than the previous year.
Interpretation:
From the above figure, it can easily be understand that from 2012 to 2016 the NPL to
total loans ratio was in instable rate. However, in 2015 this ratio increases marginally higher
than the previous years. The main reason of this increase is the recent credit scam of Janata
bank limited.

SWOT Analysis
2.With a view to implementing government policies, JBL has been maintaining its position in
extending credit to government bodies, sector corporations and private enterprises.
3But in practice credit officers do not fill up the proposal form properly. Most of the cases,
they use assumption rather than exact figure. This practice might end up with bad or
classified one.
4.JBL distribute loans without sufficient security in some cases. This is violationb of the
Bangladesh bank order.
5.Sometime the document verification is done after loan sanctioning the loan.
6.There is shortage of manpower and lack of proper training for the employees nin credit
section.
7.The credit proposal evaluation process is lengthy .Therefore, sometimesb valuable clients
are lost.
8.The website of JBL does not contain all required information about loan and aadvance.
9. In many cases bank face the problem of recovery because the credit officer fails to value
collateral property. Proper valuation means collateral will exactly cover the risk of bad loan.
Officials must do it with due care.
10. JBL is not efficient in processing and executing legal actions againstb defaulters for their
non-payment of loans and advances.
CHAPTER-SIX
RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSION
6.1 Recommendations
To improve the risk management culture further, Janata Bank Limited should adopt some of
the industry’s best practices that are not practiced currently. These are:
1.Continuous monitoring of the customer should be conducted so that loan cannot be
classified.
2.The bank should emphasis more on loan diversification like loans on different promising
sectors and newly invented thrust sectors in the economy.
4.All the loan documentations have to done honestly. The bank should concentrate more on
proper documentation of all types of loans to make the department trustworthy & healthy.
5.The documents supporting the security against the loan have to be verified properly by the
bank before sanctioning the loan.
6.Every day the business environment is changing and so the risk. So the bank should be
developed as a dynamic organization to adapt with the changing circumstances.
7.An Early Alert Account system should be introduced to have adequate monitoring,
supervision or close attention by management
8.The website of JBL should have maintained required information about loan and advances.
9.There should be a Recovery Unit to manage directly the accounts with sustained
deterioration. To encourage Recovery Unit, incentive program may also be introduced.
6.2 Conclusion
It goes without saying that credit policy cannot be isolated from the broader monitory policy
of the country. Like any other segment of the economic policy, credit is very important for
any financial institution as it generates profit and gear up economic activities of the country.
In other words, credit is business and it is input in the production process of the country.
Since credit has an inherent risk, therefore proper utilization of the loans are essential to meet
the requirements of the borrower. Thelon applied for by the borrower must not be employed
for unproductive purpose. In this regard, the Janata Bank Limited must closely follow the
progress of the loan and the way the borrower is utilizing the funds. In this way the Janata
Bank Limited will deter any fake activities on the part of the borrower Credit evaluation
system of JanataBank Limited is very lengthy process. It has been revised time to time in
response to the respective circular of Bangladesh Bank. The overall credit activity of Janata
Bank Limited is composed of corporate credit division and credit administration. The credit
management system of Janata Bank Limited is more or less effective as recovery position of
classified loan is high and classified loan has been decreasing graduallyduring the year. They
always trying to improve their credit policy for minimizing lossand maximizing profit and
various measures are undertaken to develop the creditmanagement system.
