The Risk Assessment of City Union Bank Limited for 2016-17 under the Supervisory
Program for Assessment of Risk and Capital (SPARC) was completed with March 31,
2017 as the reference date. The assessment has been made based on the off-site
analysis of the data and information furnished by the bank as well as the findings of
the on-site Inspection for Supervisory Evaluation (ISE) undertaken from October
16,2017 to November 17,2017 and various explanations offered by the bank during
the course of inspection.

As per the SPARC process. the Aggregate Risk Score of the bank is arrived at-
which is indicative of Medium risk. On applying the assessed CRAR of 15.76% to the
aggregate risk score, the Risk of Failure Score of the bank is arrived at m.

I category, this was not adhered to as there was only one such director.
The bank had re-appointed a non-executive director for another year even

though he had attained the upper age limit.of 70 years stipulated by RBI.
1.1.3 The calendar of reviews to be put up to the Board included

themes prescriSed by Nayak Committee and other items of importance. I
However, no agenda notes were placed before the Board on some of the
important matters such as banks preparedness for transition to Ind-AS and

credit proposals involving enhancements despite unsatisfactory conduct 1


and inherent weakness in the accounts (overdues, poor liquidity ratio, very
high leverage ratios, etc). Further, the credit proposals recommended to
the Credit Committee/Board also did not have a balanced view of positive

aspects as well as inherentlpotential risks existing in the borrowal
accounts.
I.2.2 In some cases, the agenda notes submitted to the Board did not contain
complete information and confirmation regarding compliance with RBI
stipulations and the bank's internal guidelines. This resulted in wrong
decisions in a few important proposals suck as re-appointment of a non-
executive director who had already attained the maximum age of 70 years
stipulated by RBI, approval of compromise settlement under OTS in one
fraudulent NPA account, which was not in tune with bank's internal
guidelines, etc.
1.2.3 Oversight in matters of regulatory compliance was not satisfactory as Red
Flagging of loan accounts was still being done manually and the same had
not yet been automated. FuPther, the bank had not yet uploaded the KYC
data of all the individual accounts opened after January I , 2017 with
Central KYC Records Registry, till date. Similarly, although pendency in
submission of export and import documents was quite high (I
0,474 cases),
no corrective measures were initiated to rectify the position.

Internal Audii
i) The rating model for risk rating of branches

I I Audit (RBIA) was deficient in several respects as foIIows:

(a) It was not aligned to suit the business prafilelspecific function of different
categories of branches.

(b) Inherent business risk assessment parameters also included business


strategy and liquidity risk components relating to business parameters,
which were normally managed at the corporate Level.

(c) The risk rating of certain branches either remained the same or
improved despite slippage of many accounts during the year, indicating
that the rating model was not adequately sensitive to inherent credit risk.
Out of 400 branches audited during the year, none of the branches were
classified as "High Risk" and "Very High R i s k category, which appeared to
be unrealistic position of risk profile of the branches.

(ii) The RBlA policy allowed a maximum period of 6 months for rectification
of deficiencies pointed out in the audit reports, which defeated the principle
of prompt mitigation of identified risks.

1.4.2 The trigger points outlined for undertaking Snap/Special audits did not
include events such as occurrence of frauds, increase in slippage of
accounts to SMAINFA category. pendency of exportlimport documents,

I
2.2.2 1 Risk Identification & Assessment I
( i ) In many cases (20% of sample size of 100), credit appraisal was not
comprehensive as it did not cover important aspects such as inter-
firmlindustry analysis, critical analysis of sales projections based on past
performance, justification for accepting deviations from internal policy
stipulationslbenchhark ratios, etc.

(ii) In some cases (16% of sample size of 30),particularly related to stressed


sectors, working capital limits were enhanced despite deterioration in the
financials of the borrower and their not being in line with bench mark ratios
stipulated in the loan policy. Also term loans were granted for long tenure
along with moratorium without any justification.

(iii) The score card based credit rating model did not capture conduct of
account related aspects such as number of occasions in which Short Term
Loans were allowed, cheque returns, devolvement of LC1 invocation of BG,
etc. Further, t h e credit rating models did not reflect the deterioration in the
financial health of the borrowal accounts as the borrower's ratings in some
cases had either improved or remained the same (20% of sample size of 50).

(iv) The pricing of loans was not strictly linked to credit rating as some
borrowers (20% of sample size of 30) with similar risk ratings were charged
differently. Further, there was no system of revising the pricing with change in
the rating of the borrowal accounts.

/ (v) In the case of loans extended to barrowers engaged in real estate 1


activities, the appraisal notes did not cover the status of RERA registra
and the likely impact in case of non-registration,

Confidential Page 8 of 27
(vi) The bank did not assess the concentration in multiple dimensions such as
collaterals, highly leveraged borrowers, concentration based on RWAs,
incremental ofl-balance sheet exposure, tenor risk and high risk rated
exposures.
I
(vii) The rating review of corporate borrowers of term loans was not carried
out regularly and resultantly the entry level rating assigned to suck borrowers
continued till maturity of the loans.

(viii) The bank did not have an automated system to capture non-financial
triggers such as DCCO, type of restructuring sanctioned, number of times
short term loans rolled over, etc., for flagging the accounts as NPAs.

(i) There was no mechanism in place to monitor adherence to loan policy

1 1 stipulation regarding maximum number of occasions (5 times) a borrower I


could be permitted short term increases (STls)lover drawings. In many cases
(8% of 133 cases), STlsloverdrawings were permitted to borrowers as a
I I matter of routine without analyzing the fund flow statements and assessing I
borrower's repayment capacity and the number of such instances exceeded
the ceiling stipulated.

(ii) In some cases (20% of 30 cases), jewel loans were granted in excess of
the stipulated LTV ratio of 75% and the CBS system was not enabled to trigger
the alerts to prevent breaches.

(iii) Although SMA-2 accounts had dropped significantly (by 37%) in the March
quarter and increased sharply (by 2'1%) in the June quarter, and this trend

1 1 had been visible in the previous year also, the bank had not undertaken any I
I I analysis of this unusual movemenl. Similarly, the bank had not undertaken I
I

any analysis of accounts frequently moving from SMA- 2 to SMA-I category


and vice-versa to assess the impact on the overall asset quality.

Monitoring & Review

I I sanction terms and conditions was pending in 386 cases (for more than one 1
I . I year in some cases) and renewal of insurance was pending in 78 cases as on

Confidential Page 9 of 27
September 30, 20'17. The bank had also not undertaken review of
restructured standard accounts to assess adherence to terms and conditions
of restructuring.

(ii) In several cases, BGs issued had expired (I796 BGs aggregating f 1108
mn) but the follow-up was not done to obtain the original guarantees for
cancellation. Resultantly, such BGs were continued to be treated as
contingent liabilities.

(iii) Monitoring of valuation of immovable properties as per the periodicity laid


down in the bank's toan policy was not automated.

in line with its risk appetite for business and strategic risks. Further, KRls
were not defined for frauds and complaints so as to provide an early warning
signal for potential risk with a view to take proactive action to mitigate such
risks.

(iii) Although the bank had provided remote access facility of IT networks to
its employees, the Information Security policy did not include guidelines in

2. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, ICAR, I C M P AND STRESS TESTING

2.1 Bank's Capital Planning and Business Projections

The accretion to capital was articulated in ICAAP and Capital Management plan for
FYs 201 8-2020, which targeted projected profits, external infusion of capital through
QIP, etc. The bank had estimated infusion of capital to the tune o f ? I4410 mn in the
FY 2019 in order to meet the requirements prescribed by Basel Ill as per the I C M P
document for 2017-18. During the period under review, the bank had allotted 2.87 mn
equity shares to employees under employee stock option scheme on account of which
the share capital and share premium increased by ?3 mn and f 151 rnn respectively.
Public (50.32%) and Flls (36.30%) were the major shareholders of the bank.

The bank had projected capital position under Base! Ill at T41115 mn (14.51%),
? 55530 rnn (76,37%)and T 62510 rnn (15.25%) for the FYs 2018,2019 and 2020 as
against the minimum regulatory capital requirements assessed by it at 7 29856 mn,
? 37919 mn and ? 45938 rnn respectively. The bank had projected an operating profit
of ? 1'1100 mn, 7 12610 mn, and 9 14860 rnn for the FYs 2018, 2019 and 2020
respectively. The assessed CRAR of the bank had increased to 15.96% as on March
31, 2017from 15.49% on March 31, 2016.

The bank had formulated its annual business budget for the FY 2017 which was not
granular as growth targets in respect of RWAs, capital, reserves & surplus, C W R ,
etc., were not covered.

2.2. Assessment of Pillar I and Pillar I1 capital and Internal Capital Ratios
The bank in its ICAAP had projected minimum CRAR of 10.76%, 1I.42%, 12.08% and
12.08% as on March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 as against the regulatory
minimum of 10.25%, 10.88%, 11.50% and 11.50% respectively. The bank had
assessed the credit risk under standardized approach, market risk under standardized
duration approach and operational risk under basic indicator approach.

As per assessment conducted for capital as on March 31, 2019, the overall capital
requirement for Pillar 1 was F23576 rnn and an additional aggregate capital under Pillar
Illstressed conditions was evaluated at T I 044 mn. Against a total capital requirement
of ? 24620 mn (Pillar 1811 capital requirement), the bank had maintained a capital of

Confidential Page 20 of 27
?36405 mn. The internal capital ratio assessed by the bank as on March 31,2013
under the lCAAP after considering Pillar I and II risks and additional risk weights due
to stress tests stood at 15.16%. The total CRAR reported under Basel Ill stood at
15.83% as on March 31, 2017 with Tier-l and Tier-ll capital ratios being 15.35% and
0.48% respectively.

2.3. ICAAP:

The ICAAP document suffered from the follawing deficiencies:

(i) The ICAAP outcome was not used for pricing of bank's loans and deposits
products.
(ii) The ICAAP document did not outline a general contingency plan for dealing
with divergences and unexpected events.
(iii) The bank had assumed 22.52% and 21.57% annual increase in advances for
the years 201 8 and 2019 in a base scenario though the actual increase in advances
was only 13.45% during the FY 201.5-17.
(iv) The ICAAP validation report obtained from the external reviewer or internal
auditor was not sent to RBI.

2.4. Stress Testing

The bank had conducted stress tests for credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk,
market risk and operational risk. The following deficiencies were observed in this
regard:

(i) Stress testing methodotogy did not assess the impact of the changes in the
creditworthiness of the counterparty.
(ii) Stress testing did not include off balance sheet exposures in bank's credit risk
profile.
(iii) Stress testing scenarios did not include strategic or reputational risk for
significant business lines.

3. Assessment of Internal Generation of Capital

3.1. Retained earnings

The reported retained earnings increased from ?3186 rnn in FY 2015 to ?3668 mn in
FY 2016 and further to 54829 mn in FY 2017, while the dividend pay-out ratio
(excluding dividend tax) increased from 17.08% in FY 2015 to 19.52% in FY 2016 and
reduced to 3.94% in the FY 2017 due to reduction in dividend payout.

3.2. Quality of earnings

(i) The reported net profit increased from Z4447 mn in the FY 2016 to 75023 rnn
in FY 2017 primarily clue to increase in net interest income (by 72178 mn),decrease
in provision for standard advances( by FA32 mn ) and decrease in other provisions (by
?I92 mn). The profit after tax registered a Y-o-Y increase of 15.78% and 13.04% in
FY 2016 and 2017 respectively.

(ii) The reported gross volatile income of the bank increased from 77 981 mn in FY
2016 to T2646 mn in FY 2017 mainly due to higher trading income (7797 mn) and
recovery from write-offs (TI 00 mn). The gross stable income increased from F31561
mn in the FY 2016 to 733931 rnn in FY 2017 mainly due to increase in interest income
earned on jeans & advances.
(iii) The net interest margin of the bank had increased from 3.30% in FY 2016 to
3.58 % in the FY 2017 due to increase in interest income.
(iv) The cost to income ratio of the bank had marginally increased from 40.08% in
FY 2016 to 40.95% in FY 2017.
(v) The budgeted targets were not achieved in respect of a few parameters such
as net profit (T5027 mn as against F5100 rnn budgeted), investments (770314 mn as
against T79000 mn budgeted), interest income (937738 mn as against T32100 mn
budgeted) and net interest margin (3.58% as against 3.84% budgeted)
(vi) On account of additional provision of T I 0 5 mn suggested by the present
inspection for fresh NPAs and F72rnn towards interest reversal, net profit was
assessed at 14910mn.

4. Scope and ability to infuse capital


The authorized capital of the bank stood at ?I000 mn. The paid up capital was e601
\.
.
- ,
mn leaving head room of F399 mn for raising additional capital. As per Basel Ill norms,
the bank was maintaining CETI capital above RBI specified minimum requirement.

Confidential Page 22of27


The bank's CRAR as on the DPI stood at 15.83% of which Tier I capital ratio
(comprising solely of CET1) was 15.35% and Tier-ll ratio was 0.48%. As on the March
31, 2017, the bank did not have any Easel Ill compliant AT1 instruments. Hence, the
bank had enough head room to raise additional Tier-I (AT-I) and Tier-ll (Basel lll-
compliant bonds) capital.

5. Assessment of Leverage Ratis

As against the minimum prescribed leverage ratio of 4.50%, the bank had a reported
leverage ratio of 9.42% as on March 31, 2017. The assessed leverage ratio was
9.40%. The primary reason for divergence in the assessed leverage ratio was on
account of reduced Tier-I capital arising mainly due to additional provisioning in
respect of fresh NPAs a n d reversal of interest identified by the present inspection. The
assessed leverage ratio had increased from 9.04% as on March 31,2016 to 9.40% as
on March 31, 2017 mainly on account of increase in Tier-l capital by '16.58% during
the year (i.e., from ? 30294 mn to ? 35318 mn).The leverage ratio of the bank was well
above the regulatory minimum of 4.50%.

6. Supervisory Capital Prescription

The required capital for the assessed aggregate risk is a model driven process. The
add-on capital is the difference between the required capital (by the model) and
assessed capital available with the bank. However, supervisory capital prescription is
based on supervisory judgment of other elements like quality of earnings, ability of the
bank to raise capital, sources of capital infusion, level of leverage
ratio, etc. Accordingly, based on the holistic supervisory assessment of risk and the
capital position of the bank, the bank's supervisorycapital is assessed as
"ADEQUATE".

In view of the extant transitional arrangements for augmenting of the Regulatory


Capital as per the requirements of Basel III norms till March 31, 20q9, the Supervisory
Capital Prescriptions, as of now, will only indicate the adequacy or otherwise, of
Supervisory Capital.

Going forward, the decision for imp!ementing quantitative prescription of supervi


capital will be communicated to the bank as and when taken.

PART Ill- COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT
A. Compliance Culture

The Compliance Department was headed by a Chief Compliance Officer in the rank
of GM who was reporting to the MD&CEO directly. The compliance department had
only three officers and one clerical staff, which was considered inadequate. Further,
the staff were not having fair knowledge of iawlaccountancy or adequate experience
in bank's operations and auditlinspection functions. The compliance testing done by
the department to test adherence to various regulatory guidelines needed further
improvement in view of various deficiencies pointed in the report. Further, the
compliance testing done by the SSM team revealed that the bank had not complied
with guidelines in many areas such as risk categorization of accounts, updation of
customers KYC details, uploading of KYC data with CKYC records registry, etc.,
whereas the bapk had claimed to be compliant in all these areas. Thus, there was
scope for improvement in compliance function of the bank.

B. MAJOR AREAS OF FINANCIAL DIVERGENCE

RBS 2018- Citv Union Bank Lid-Limited Review

Limited Review of CifV Union Bank Ltd as of March 31,2048-Maior Observations


I.Credit Risk
I Major observations
PoIicy Environment
ad-hoc credit facilities did not specify
the eligibility criteria for grant of such facilities.
1.2 1 Risk Identification 8 Assessment l n
(i). Credit appraisal standards were weak as evident from the following:

(a). Some key aspects were not factored in the assessment viz., the financial
position sf grouplasssciate companies and degree of borrower's financial
dependence on them, credit information shared by the consortium or MBA
member banks, inter-firm c~mgarison,-verification of CFR, CRlLC and
CERSAI data, past trend in achievement of sales projections, rollover of NFB
limits and instances of LC devotvements and BG invocations.

(b). Instances were observed of excess funding of w ~ r k i n gcapital requirement


in few cases by resorting to various means viz. ,not undertaking assessment
policy stipulation (9 out of 40 -23%),
using turnover method, contrary to l ~ a n
inflating current assetsldeflating current liabilities or accepting
ambitiousfunrealistic sales turnover projected by the borr~wers(5 out of 30-
A7%), deviating from internal benchmarks relating to minimum liquidity!
teveragelcaveragelpsofitability ratios (30 out of 80-37%), permitting
renewalslenhancements based on the provisional financials without
subsequent review based on audited financials (8 out of 30-27%) and
sanctions exceeding the limits assessed under the internally prescribed MPBF
method (7 out of 30-23%).

(c). LC limits were assessed based on the higher levels of sales turnover and
credit purchases (under LC) projected by the b
RBS 2078-City Union Bank Ltd-Limited Review

of 30-20%). BG limits were grantedlenhanced without analysing


number and amount of work orders on hand and milestones for completion of
the projects (6~ uoft 30-20%). In a few cases, BG limits were renewed without
any assessment (5out of 30-q7%).

(ii). In the case of housing loans, the bank had computed EM1 amount based
on the gross annual i n c ~ r n edeclared by the borrowers in the IT returns,
without considering the disposable income after current debt obligations and
subsistence expenses. In some eases, the yearly EM1 payments fixed
exceeded the gross annual income of the borrowers (4 out of 30-13%),

(iii). The bank had granted working capital loans to pawn brokers and
borrowers engaged in money lending activities without critically examining the
need for extending bank finance to such borrowers (60 cases). The loan policy
was also silent in this regard.

I ( (iv). System-based identification of NPAs was deficient 1 as (i)

I I marking/classification of NPAs was done at the quarter-end even though I I

I I identification was done on daily basis and (ii) debit balances in current and 1
I / savings bank accounts were not considered for NPA classification. An 1
1 I examination of CBS data revealed that 13 current accounts aggregating T42 1
1 1 rnn were not marked as NPAs by the system even though debit balances 1
I continued for more than 91 days as on March 31,2018. One such large value
1 account had been downgraded as NPA by the present inbpection.

I
I
( 1(i). Collateral management was not automated to ensure timely completion of I
I I charge creation, valuation and CERSAI registration of securities. Pendency (
was observed in charge creation (440 cases), re-valuation of collateral 1
securities (6565 properties) and CERSAI registration of1
mortgagedfhypothecated securities (7735 cases). Collateral securities for
I I NPA accounts (541 irnmoveable properties) were also not revalued once in I
L--L three years, contrary to internal guidelines.

8 City
.e . d Reviey

(ii). There was no monitoring of breaches of Loan To Value (LTV) ratios in the
case of housing loans and jewel loans. The LTV ratios stipulated in the loan
policy were exceeded in 'I64 eases (housing loans) and 5164 cases (jewel
loans). The Core Banking System (CBS) did not have the facility to throw alerts
in case of such breaches.
(iii). Down-gradation in the credit rating sf borrowal accounts did not translate
in revision of pricing of loans. The R81 was not increased proportionately even
when the credit: rating of borrowers was downgraded by 3 to 4 notches in few
cases(l9 accounts).
(iv). The bank did not make Aadhar linkage mandatory for availing crop loans
under interest subvention scheme as per extant RBI guidelines. In some cases
(220 accounts), interest subvention was granted to borrowers even though
their accounts were not linked with the Aadhar numbers.
(v). BsrrowaI accounts were taken over from other banks despite financial
ratios not: being in line with benchmark ratios stipulated for takeover accounts
(7 out of 30-23%) and non-availability of credit information reports from the
transferor banks (I 87 out of 2'10-89%).

(vi). The bank had granted ad-hoe credit facilities in SMA accounts routinely
without assessing the financial and operational performance of the borrowers
based on the fund flow analysis. In some cases, it had granted ad-hoc credit
facilities to SMA borrowers near the balance sheet date (246 accounts
aggregating ?31%2 mn) and the same resulted in reduction of SMA accounts
during the month ~f March 2018. Examination of data dump revealed that
outstanding amount sf SMA 1 and 2 accounts had dropped significantly (by
34.02%) in March 2018 but had increased sharply (by 54.44%) in the next
month April 2018. The bank had not analysed the reasons for such unusual
movement of SMA accounts in the last month of the year.

I.4 Monitoring & Review


(i). Significant deficiencies observed in post-sanction monitoring were as
follows: (a) pending compliance of important sanction terms suck as infusion
R B S 20.18- Citv Union Bank Ltd-Limited Review

of capitall unsecured loansllong term funds by borrowers (11 out: of 50-22%)


(b) under insurance or non-renewal of insurance policies (5333 securities) and
(c) non-conduct of stock audit (31 accounts).

(ii). The bank had not operationalized the Early Warning Signals (EWS) for
identification and red flagging ~f potential loan frauds. As a result, certain
accounts (1 1 accounts) were not red flagged despite presence of indicative
signals such as frequent ad-hoe sanctions, cheque bouncing and devolvement
of LCsl invocation of BGs.

(iii). In respect of crop loans (agriculture-jewel loans) sanctioned under interest


subvention scheme, the following discrepancies were obsewed: (a) the bank
had granted multiple agriculture-jewel loans to individual borrowers
aggregating more than 53 lakh , contrary to extant regulatory instructions (105
cases pertaining to FY 207 8-1 9); (b) in case sf individual loans up to ?I lakh,
neither were the land records of the borrowers obtained and verified, nor were
the full particulars of land held, survey number and nature of crops cultivated,
recorded in the appraisal notes1 loan applications. Furlher, the bank did not
carry out any pre-sanction and post-disbursement checks to verify that the
borrower had not availed multiple loans from banking system and that the
loans sanctioned were used for the stated purpose, despite few instances of
loan proceeds being transferred to borrowers' accounts maintained with other
banks.

2. Liquidity Risk

Major Observations
2.1 1 Risk Identification & Assesstnent
1 The bank had not estimated short-term dynamic liquidity (STDL) for 90 days
I

II 1 on the basis of the business projections. The liquidity risk under stock 1

Page 4 of 8
RBS 2018- Citv Union Bank Lid-Limi:ed Review

(i). The contingency funding plan did not prioritize the available avenues for
raising funds from various sources in the event sf liquidity crisis. 1
(ii). The bank did not prescribe ceilingsllimits based on residual maturity of the
investment portfolio for better liquidity management.

(iiij. The ALCO did not consider diversification of funding sources despite
continued dependence on short term borrowings and high level of credit
deposit ratio (86%).

Monitoring & Review


(i). While conducting stress tests for liquidity risk, the bank had not taken i n s
consideration the behaviour of counter parties which would affect the timing
of cash flows, as prescribed by RBI. Further in respect of stress test for illiquid
assets, the bank had considered lower haircut without taking into account
concentration and market conditions for the illiquid securities.

(ii). The review of the risk appetitefrisk limits for liquidity risk in the ICAAP did I
I
not factor the elevated level of credit deposit ratio and short-term borrowings
resorted to by the bank.

(iii). The justification for the assumptions considered for behavioural studies
for preparing flow statements was not articulated in respect of period for the
devolvement of hCs and invocation of BGs.

Reporting
to extant instructions, the bank had not reckoned the market
of Level 1 HQLA securities for the purpose of computing the Liquidity
Coverage Ratio (LCR).

3. Operational Risk
I Major observations I

I (i). The bank did not have a board approved policy for merchant acquisition inI
I
RBS 2018- Citv Union Bank Ltd-Limited Review

I I respect of card transactions.

(ii). The policy on staff rotation did not prescribe the periodicity of rotation
applicable to sensitive departments such as Treasury, International Banking
Division, Risk Management Department and Accounts Department.

1 3.2 1 Risk Identification B Assessment


I
I
(i). The bank did not ensure that the officers attacked to specialized

I 1 departments such as Credit, IBD, Risk Management. Treasury and Accounts 1


I 1 departments had completed the mandatory certification courses relating to 1
1 1 their respective work areas as per extant RBI instructions.
i1
(ii). Five out of six officials attached to AM1 Cell were not imparted any training
in AMLICFT related areas,

The Risk Assessment of City Union Bank for 2018-19 under the Supervisory Program
for Assessment sf Risk and Capital (SPARC) was completed witk March 31, 201 9 as
the reference date. The assessment has been made based on the off-site analysis of
the data and information furnished by the bank as well as the findings of the on-site
Inspection for Supervisory Evaluation (ISE) undertaken from July 8, 2019 to August 3,
2019 and various explanations offered by the bank during the course of inspection.
The critical observations emanating from the inspection of Head Office under Section
35 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, are incorporated in the report.

SECTION 1: SUPERVISORY EVALUATION OF RISKS AND CONTROL GAPS

I.Governance & Oversight


1 M Jor Observations I
1.1 I Board
1.1.11
, ,

bank did not have a Director with special knowledge in the area of
I
I 1 Payment 8 Settlement Systems and Information Technology, in violation of 1
I ( extant instructions. I
The Articles of Association of the bank were not fully aligned with the changes
brought in by the Companies Act, 2013. For eg. Requirement of holding
qualification shares by a Director.
The Board had not done review of some of the policies to update the same in
accordance witk regulatory changes. (Policy on collection of cheques
linstruments, policy of grievance redressal, related party transaction policy)
The agenda notes were not circulated to Board members sufficiently in
advance to enable meaningful deliberations as the table agenda provided
during the meeting constituted a significant proportion (40%) of the total
agenda items. The minutes of the Board meeting were lengthy in some cases
with almost re-production of terms of loan proposals sanctioned but did not
capture the deliberations.

Committee of
the Credit Comm
including chairperson of Credit Committee and Audit Committee were
common.
(ii) The oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board (AC8) was inadequate
as the bank continued with the practice of regularisation of stressed accounts
through sanction of adhoc limits1 enhancement to avoid NPA classification,
despite being pointed out in the previous Limited Review by RBI. The ACB
did not issue any directions in this regard. lnfact, only two directions emanated
From the ACB during the year and both of them were not related to the Limited
Review observations.
IT Strategy Committee's direction regarding on-site verification of cyber
security by external auditor was pending for more than six months as on DPI.
The compensation policy on variable pay to MD&CEO specified parameters
Tor grant of variable pay i.e. business performane; Return on Assets, Net
Interest Margin, Return on Equity, Asset Quality, recovery and technological
initiatives, staff welfare measures; compliance with regulatory guidelines and
customer satisfaction etc.; but did not specify the bandlrange for these
parameters to arrive at the variable pay.
Senior Management
Three loans (each more than Z0.25 crore), were sanctioned to two borrowal
accounts in which Ghairmanldirector of other banks were interested as
directorlpartner, without prior approvallknowledge of the Board, contrary to
extant instructions. The information was later put up to the Board which ratified
the same without giving any directionlguidance to put up such cases to the
Board for prior approvallknowledge.
(i) Several credit proposals (120 proposals in March 2019 amounting to ?I583
crore) were sanctioned1 ratified by MD&CEOI Senior officials just near year-
end, enhancing oversight lapse risk. Few of these accounts involved sanction
of new facilities to the irregular borrowers, to avoid being tagged as SMAl
NPA. In few SMA-2 accounts (2 out of sample of 5) upgraded (out of SMA) as
on DPI, it was found that overdues were cleared thro

Page 4 of 15
(ii) During the previous year and %heyear under review, fresh sanctions
aggregating 734.9crore were made to nine borrowers which got classified as
NPA as on DPI. Out of fresh sanctions as above, T29.9 crore was to cover the
then existing overdues.
(i) A critical review of succession planning was required as many (8 out of 18)
senior officers were to retire in next two years.
(ii) One official in credit department and some officers (19) and assistants (2)
in the treasury department were not transferred for more than 3 and 5 years
respectively, against its internal policy.
(iii) Four out of five employees attached to the deal~ngroom had not taken the
mandatory leave of 10 days.
Risk Governance
The bank had undertaken Enterprise-Wide Risk review at quarterly intervals
but did not factor impact of invocation of guarantees issued on behalf of
borrower with weak financialslaccount later turning NPA. The loan policy of
the bank, restricted issue of BGs more than 10 years in general, with tenure
upto 15 years permitted with approval of MD & CEO. The implication on Asset
Liability Management (ALM) in case of guarantees above 10 years was not
assessed and the bank's loan policy was also silent as to impact on its ALM
of issuance of guarantees with more than ten years tenor
(i) Even though the total exposure to the borrower required Risk Management
Department (RMD) vetting, as per Policy, the credit proposals for sanction of
adhoc / shod term loans, even to CUB 5 (Fair Risk) or CUB 6 (High Risk)
rated borrowers, were beyond the purview of RMD.
(ii) The formal interaction between InspectionlCreditlHR heads and RMD on
risk matters was not evidenced.
The Board reduced the overall unkedgecl exposures of all borrowers from
50% to 40% of the capital funds and with a cap of 30% as trigger point.
However, MDlCEO was delegated the power to ratify upto 10% over and
above the recommended limit of 40% and hence the intention of Board to
eschew risk on said count did not materialise.
The risk arising from guarantees issued and live as on date but not invoked
(f 2 bank guarantees aggregating F2.5 crore) but the fund based limits were
NPA was not captured.
Internal Audit
The model for risk rating of branches under Risk Based Internal Audit (RB1A)
was deficient as follows:
(a) Inconsistencies (2 out of 10) were observed in awarding lower risk in RBIA
of the branches than that required based upon business risk parameters or in
grading of branches (3 out of 16) than as indicated by RBIA.
(6) The rating model while assessing business risk did not capture
regularisation of overdues by sanction of adhoc I enhancement of limits,
reported by StabutorylConcurrent auditor.
The prescription of internal policy for rotation of concurrent auditor after three
years was not followed in 11 branches out of total 162 branches under
concurrent audit.
Even though Credit Processing Centres (CPCs) were required to process
credit proposals forwarded by branches, processing of such proposals for
adhoc IShort term loans directly at Corporate office without: routing through
CPC was not specifically captured in scope of RBIA for any irregularities nor
early warning signal could be captured.
The system logic for computing provision in accounts with CGTMSE cover
was not as per IRAC norms. CGTMSE cover instead of security value was
being first deducted from outstanding to arrive at provision on
securedlunsecured portion. IS Audit had not identified this flaw in logic.
In a few cases of Management Audit of Central Office departments, instead
of evaluating management decision taken by the department concerned, was
in the nature of routine inspection.
Compliance
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) had been entrusted responsibilities of Chief
Compliance Officer also which was a conflict of interest. Imposition of penalty
by RBI and continuation of practices pointed out far rectification in the last
Limited Review Report indicated need for further improvement in compliance

.
1.6.1 The risk culture of the bank manifested itself in taking calibrated risk as
cellateralisecl model sf lending was followed. However, Short Term
LoanslAdhoclenhancement in some cases and utlisation of proceeds to
recover overclues was not in sync with principles of sound credit discipline.

(b) Some accounts (seven retail: education loans) were not captured as
NPA (aggregate outstanding of % 0.1 3 crore), despite 90 days' overdue and
they were reckoned via MOC of Statutory Auditor. The primary reason was
that the moratorium period was entered incorrectly in the system and the

use.
(v) It was observed that few ex-staff accounts (54 accounts with outstanding

inspection on account of (a) incorrect assignment of riskweights for clean credit (credit card,
consumer loan, personal loan) and education loan to staff not fully covered by
superannuation benefits and credit cards issued to the customers, (b) assignment of .
sovereign risk weight as regards exposure to public sector insurance company, (c) incorrect
underlying security value for an %]PAaccount and (d) L I T ratios computed considering

C Compliance Assessment

I.CCOwas also designated as the CFO which led to conflict of interest as he would be
involved in business1profit optimisation targets that could undermine his role as CCO.
2.The compliance testing done by the SSM Team revealed that the bank had not
complied with extant regulatory instructions in areas such as disbursal of housing loan
(disbursal as made without linking it to stages of construction), customer service and
updation of customers W C details.
3.Though the bank had sanctioned loans to borrowal accounts in which
Chairmanldirector of two other banks were interested as directorlpartner without prior
approvallknowledge of the Board, it was reckoned that the extant instructions were
complied.
4.The bank had not reviewed the performance of the Security Auditor (SA) contrary to
RBI guidelines on Effectiveness of Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing
Exercise.
5.0nly 58% of the total 1685 ATMs were EMV enabled, thus bank was not compliant in
respect of Security and Risk Mitigation Measures for Card Present (CP) Transactions.
6.The bank has not yet implemented fully the Payment Card Industry Data Security
Standard (PC1 DSS) for optimising the security of credit and debit card transactions,
despite being pointed out in previous Limited Review report (timeline for which was June
30,2013).

Secti~nI1 - Conduct sf Business

A. Customer Conduct

The following deficiencies Isupervisory concerns were observed:

(i) The Customer Selvice Committee (CS6)of the Board held only one meeting (in
March 2019), as against regulatory stipulation of two meetings during the year. The data
presented to the CSC on customer grievances arising from failed ATM transactions was
also not updated (only quarter ended June 30, 2018 data). The bank was not compliant
in respect of Security and Risk Mitigation Measures for Card Present (CP) Transactions,
as only 58% of the total 1685 ATMs were EMV enabled.
(ii) Though the bank has waived RTGSINEFT charges as per RBI directions for online
banking, it was charging customers for RTGSlNEFT transactions effected through
branches.
(iii) The lack of KYC discipline was indicated in non-updation of beneficial owner in 2243
accounts, pendency in KYC de-duplication for 1214 accounts,1640 domestic accounts
which are wrongly
- - flagged
-- as Non-residents,424 NRI accounts where the Non-residents
are wrongly flagged as residents, pendency in periodic risk updation of accounts (
High risk/ 197 Medium risW1583 Low risk) was observed as on March 31,2019.
(iv) Rise in proportion of ATM related complaints (95% of total 32205 complaints)
during the FY 2019 and lack of analysis for taking corrective measures indicated
inadequate attention to Customer complaints.
(v) In three cases, bank's liability to the customer for unauthorised electronic banking
transactions (aggregating ? one lakh) were met after four months and that too with the
intervention of Banking Ombudsman.

B. Conduct Governance

The Board had approved reversal of interest rate in standard accounts (9 7 crore in two
accounts) even with retr.osppetive effect (going back to as much as 2014-1 5). However,
the concessional rate of interest applied for backdates, as a means to effect the interest
reversal, was below the. then prevailing Base RatelMCLR. This interest reversal were
neither disclosed nor get captured in any risk monitoring reports, during the financial
year under review.
