Credit (from Latin credit, "(he/she/it) believes") is the trust which allows one party to provide money or
resources to another party wherein the second party does not reimburse the first party immediately
(thereby generating a debt), but promises either to repay or return those resources (or other materials
of equal value) at a later date.[1] In other words, credit is a method of making reciprocity formal, legally
enforceable, and extensible to a large group of unrelated people.

The resources provided may be financial (e.g. granting a loan), or they may consist of goods or services
(e.g. consumer credit). Credit encompasses any form of deferred payment.[2] Credit is extended by a
creditor, also known as a lender, to a debtor, also known as a borrower.

Introduction
Banks being the financial houses which primarily are established to accept deposits and to lead loans to
the public. Profitability of the bank depends mainly on the Net Interest Income(NII) generated.(I.e) If a
bank accepts deposits from customers for which an interest of 6 % is paid every quarter, but lends a loan
for an interest of (say) 13% which might fixed or a floating rate( it depends and varies for different asset
products). The Net difference which is excluding the cost, earned is the Spread which is also called Net
Interest Income.

The quality of loans lent depends on the efficiency of the banks in sourcing, screening, processing and
sanctioning of credit.

Initially, the asset product( Personal loan/Mortgage/Business loan/Credit Card) applications are

c. Tele-Sales Team.

Computerization of data and pre-screening of application is done by the pre-screening team, if any
rejections like missing documents or signature mismatch/unsigned forms are rejected to sourcing team
to attach the additional documents required.

Then the application moves to the Credit evaluation team, which evaluates the application as per the
Credit and product policy.

A CPV( Contact Point Verification) is done to ensure correct phone number, address, employment
details, existence of business, etc.A positive CPV check is essential to credit evaluation.
Any suspicions in documents is observed, it is referred to the Fraud Management Unit and after FMU
clearance it is processed further.

Rejections observed during credit evaluation are clarified with Sourcing team and necessary
documents are attached for further evaluation.

If the Credit evaluation team while processing the application finds any recommendations attached by
GM/VP/Country head-sales for policy deviations or all the policy criteria are met but any system
deviations(errors in calculation of eligibility by the computer after policy revision) is observed then the
application is escalated/recommended to Credit Risk Evaluators to process it from their end.

When the policy criteria are not met( say customer has a poor credit score, cheque bounces in the
recent past, or may not be eligible for the particular product) then the application is declined.

Application is processed and moved to the disbursement team for disbursal, if all policy criteria are
met.

Glossary

Credit – the main form of credit in which the Bank provides the customer with temporary use of own or
borrowed capital on return with payment of percent.

Lending – the process of providing the business entity, natural person Bank loan.

The essence of Bank credit, its forms, types, functions and principles of lending

Credit is the economic relations between corporations, individuals and government about the
redistribution of value based on return and, as a rule, the payment of interest.
In the credit relationship involves two parties: the borrower and the lender.

These parties are called as subjects of credit relations, and the money or wealth, costs or projects for
which is a credit agreement, are subject to credit. Subjects of credit relations can simultaneously speak
and lenders, and borrowers.

There are the following main forms of credit:

• product that occurs between sellers and buyers, when buyers receive goods or services with deferred
payment (trade credit);

• cash-most common in banking practice;

• warranty (liabilities of the Bank to guarantee the payment to the customer in the case that he will not
be able to pay their bills – acceptance, Aval-s ' loans).

Loans can be classified according to various criteria, for example depending on the subjects of credit
relations and banking, national or international; depending on groups of borrowers to the population,
economic entities, interbank loan; purpose - consumer" investment the like; the areas of focus is aimed
in the sphere of circulation (credit to current operations), aimed in the sphere of production (loan in
investment activities); to ensure, via the terms of use, maturity, risk and the like.

Currently, there are four functions of the loan.

With the help of a loan is a redistribution of value on the basis of repayment, therefore, the loan
performs the redistributive function.

Another function of credit is the creation of a non-cash credit of funds for the operation of monetary
circulation, this function is in the form of equity.

Credit can also possess the control function. Enlisting in the credit relationship, the borrower and the
lender must exercise control over their activities.

Consider the function of credit capitalization, in this case, savings transformirovalsya in loan capital,
income.

All the features of a loan are closely linked.

Principles of lending are the basic assumptions that underpin both the theory and practice of credit
process.

Principles of lending are the following:

• urgency – the loan shall be repaid within the period specified by the credit agreement;

• repayment arises from the fact of the loan, this loan in contrast to fiscal relations;

• payment – payment of interest, an objective satellite of the loan, because the loan is a commercial
transaction;

• security – the purpose of this principle is to protect the interests of the Bank, to reduce the risk of the
operation;

• target use – investing in the sphere of circulation, production and the like.
The role of credit lies in effective organization of cash circulation, production expansion, agriculture
development, solving social problems.
