1.0 OVERVIEW
Bank Rakyat is a progressive Islamic cooperative bank dedicated to offering the greatest
financial services to its members. The bank is also dedicated to promoting the growth of the
Malaysian economy and community.
Profitability ratios are a type of financial metric that measures a company's capacity to create
earnings in relation to its sales, operational costs, balance sheet assets, or shareholders' equity
over time. They are among the most widely used measures in financial research. Profitability
ratios can provide insight into a company's financial performance and health. Ratios are best
utilized as comparison aids rather than as standalone measurements.
2.1 RETURN ON ASSETS
The return on assets (ROA) ratio is a financial statistic that assesses how effectively a company
utilizes its assets to create profits. It is determined by dividing total assets by net income. ROA
can be used to analyze a company's performance over time, to compare it to other companies
in the same industry, or to compare it to a benchmark such as the industry average. A high ROA
shows that the corporation can make a lot of money from its assets. A low ROA shows that the
company's assets are not being used efficiently. Overall, ROA is a useful metric for assessing a
company's financial performance. It can be used to evaluate a company's current financial
health, follow its success over time, and compare it to other firms' performance.
Return on equity (ROE) is a financial ratio that assesses how successfully a firm uses its equity
(or the funds of its shareholders) to create profits. Divide net income by shareholders' equity to
get it. ROE can be used to analyze a company's performance over time, to compare it to other
companies in the same industry, or to compare it to a benchmark such as the industry average.
A high ROE suggests that the company can create a significant amount of profit from its equity.
A poor ROE suggests that the company is not making the best use of its capital. Overall, ROE is
a useful metric for assessing a company's financial success. It can be used to evaluate a
company's current financial health, follow its success over time, and compare it to other firms'
performance.
The spread is the difference between the interest rate offered by a bank to its depositors and the
interest rate generated on consumer loans. A wider spread allows the broker or dealer to profit
more on each trade, but it also implies that the customer will pay more for the security. It is
critical to understand the elements that can influence the spread so that you can make informed
investment selections.
Based on the table, the interest spread of Bank Rakyat in five years showed an increasing
trend. The trend of interest spread is decreasing starting from 2.93% to 2.89% in 2017 to 2019.
Based on the table, the interest spread of Bank Rakyat increased from 2.89% in 2019 to 3.06%
in 2021. The bank has a higher ratio as the year passes which is good for their profitability.
2.4 NET INTEREST MARGIN
Net interest margin (NIM) is a measure of the difference between the interest income generated
by a company and the interest expense it pays out. It is calculated as a percentage of the
company's average earning assets. NIM can be used to compare a company's performance
over time, to compare a company's performance to other companies in the same industry, or to
compare a company's performance to a benchmark such as the industry average. A high NIM
indicates that a company is generating a lot of profit from its interest income. A low NIM
indicates that a company is not generating as much profit from its interest income.
Liquidity ratios are a sort of financial indicator that is used to evaluate a debtor's ability to pay off
current debt obligations without having to obtain extra funds. To ascertain a company's ability to
pay off debt commitments and its margin of safety, liquidity ratios compute variables like the
loans-to-assets ratio and the liquid assets-to-total assets ratio.
The loans-to-assets ratio is used to determine the total amount of outstanding loans as a
percentage of all assets.The higher this ratio, the more depleted a bank's loan book is and the
lower its liquidity. The higher the ratio, the more likely a bank will default.
Explanation:
From the above calculation, the ratio for Bank Rakyat in 2021 (67.18%) is lower than 2020
(68.08%). It shows that in 2020, Bank Rakyat faces less risk due to the debt being funded by
the assets.
RATIO 2019 2020 PERFORMANCE
Explanation:
From the above calculation, the ratio for Bank Rakyat in 2020 (68.08%) is higher than 2019
(64.84%). It shows that in 2020, Bank Rakyat faces more risk due to the debt being funded by
the assets. The higher this ratio, it indicates a bank loaned up and its liquidity is low.
Explanation:
According to the calculations above, Bank Rakyat’s ratio in 2019 (64.84%) is greater than in
2018. (64.56%). As a result of the debt being backed by assets, Bank Rakyat faces a greater
risk in 2019. The higher this ratio is, the more a bank has borrowed and the less liquid it is.
RATIO 2017 2018 PERFORMANCE
Explanation:
According to the calculations above, Bank Rakyat’s ratio in 2018 (64.56%) is lower than in 2017
(65.61%). As a result of the debt being covered by assets, Bank Rakyat will have its reduced
risk in 2018.
3.2 LIQUID ASSETS TO TOTAL ASSETS RATIO
The liquid assets to total assets ratio is a financial metric that measures a company's liquidity.
Liquidity refers to the ability of a company to quickly convert its assets into cash. The ratio is
calculated by dividing the company's liquid assets by its total assets. A higher ratio indicates
that the company has more liquid assets available to meet its short-term obligations.
Explanation:
From the above calculation, the ratio for Bank Rakyat in 2021 (29.81%) is higher than 2020
(28.70%). It shows that in 2021, Bank Rakyat faces less risk due to the liquid assets increasing
from year to year.
Explanation:
From the above calculation, the ratio for Bank Rakyat in 2020 (28.70%) is lower than 2019
(31.81%). It shows that by 2020, Bank Rakyat faces more risk due to less of the liquid assets in
the company financial statement. The lower this ratio indicates the liquidity is low, which is the
assets are hard to convert to cash.
RATIO 2018 2019 PERFORMANCE
Explanation:
According to the calculations above, the Bank Rakyat ratio in 2019 (31.81%) will be lower than
in 2018 (32.26%). It reveals that Bank Rakyat will be at greater risk in 2019 due to a decrease in
liquid assets from year to year.
Explanation:
According to the calculations above, the Bank Rakyat ratio in 2018 (32.26%) is higher than in
2017 (31.56%). It appears that in 2017, Bank Rakyat will not be at risk due to an increase in
liquid assets in the company's financial statement. The higher this ratio is, the more liquid the
assets are, and the easier they are to convert to cash.
4.0 ASSET QUALITY
Asset quality is a crucial component of financial analysis since it offers insights into a company's
risk profile and balance sheet stability. Asset quality can measure the performance of a bank by
depending on the default loans that are non-performing loans. The two most crucial variables
affecting total asset quality are the quality of the loan portfolio and the efficiency of the credit
management approach.
Loans or advances issued by financial institutions that are in default or at risk of default are
referred to as non-performing loans (NPLs). In other words, these are loans for which borrowers
have fallen behind on timely principal or interest payments. Since they can have a detrimental
impact on financial institutions' profitability, liquidity, and overall financial health, non-performing
loans are a major source of concern. Borrowers who are in default on their loan payments
cause the lender to lose out on expected earnings and may also cause the value of the loan
asset to decline.
According to the calculation above, the non-performing loan ratios are declining from the year
2017 until 2019. However, there is an increment starting from 2019 until 2021. The lowest
non-performing loan ratio occurs during 2019 which is 0.07%. This demonstrates that none of
the current loans put Bank Rakyat at danger. Bank Rakyat was at the lowest risk of facing its
financial loss. The year 2021 had the highest ratio that is 1.25% of total. Since the ratio is high,
some investors might hesitate to keep their money in Bank Rakyat. This high ratio additionally
indicates that the bank's assets are of poor quality, which increases the likelihood that Bank
Rakyat would suffer financial losses in the future.
4.2 LOAN TO DEPOSIT
A financial measure called the loan-to-deposit ratio (LDR) shows how many loans a bank has
compared to all of its deposits. It is employed to evaluate the liquidity and lending capability of a
bank. The total number of outstanding loans is divided by the total amount of bank deposits to
arrive at the LDR. It is expressed as a percentage, and if the ratio is too high, the bank could not
have sufficient funds needed to cover any unforeseen needs for funding.
According to the calculation, the loan-to-deposit ratios (LDR) are increasing from the year 2017
(84.85%) until 2021(92.02%). The inclining LDR can mean that the bank has been lending to
borrowers more frequently as the lending activity happens more frequently. This illustrates the
Bank Rakyat’s capacity to absorb both loan losses and withdrawals from customers. Investors
will not hesitate to keep their money since Bank Rakyat is capable of covering any unforeseen
needs for funding since they have sufficient funds.
4.3 DEPOSIT TO SHAREHOLDER FUND
Explanation:
Based on the calculation, the deposit to shareholder fund ratio is declining from the year 2017
(6.12%) to the year 2021 (4.64%). This indicates that the liquidity is diluted and Bank Rakyat's
financials are more protected.
5.0 CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Any amount of capital that gives a bank the ability to absorb or accommodate losses while also
providing the bank with sufficient funds to maintain and carry on its operations as a going
concern is considered capital adequacy. Capital inadequacy is the main factor of bank failure
and closure. A high capital adequacy ratio indicates a stronger financial position, as the bank
has a larger buffer to absorb potential losses.
31 DECEMBER 2017
Risk weighted capital ratio = (Capital Base / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 22.27%
31 DECEMBER 2018
Risk weighted capital ratio = (Capital Base / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 23.25%
31 DECEMBER 2019
Risk weighted capital ratio = (Capital Base / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 24.31%
31 DECEMBER 2020
Risk weighted capital ratio = (Capital Base / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 24.60%
31 DECEMBER 2021
Risk weighted capital ratio = (Capital Base / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 26.28%
5.2 CORE CAPITAL RATIO
31 DECEMBER 2017
Core capital ratio = (Tier One Capital / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 20.78%
31 DECEMBER 2018
Core capital ratio = (Tier One Capital / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 21.87%
31 DECEMBER 2019
Core capital ratio = (Tier One Capital / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 22.85%
31 DECEMBER 2020
Core capital ratio = (Tier One Capital / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 22.67%
31 DECEMBER 2021
Core capital ratio = (Tier One Capital / Total Risk Weighted Assets) x 100
= 23.87%
6.0 MANAGEMENT SOUNDNESS
Management soundness refers to the overall effectiveness and competence of the individuals or
teams responsible for making decisions, implementing strategies, and overseeing the
operations of an organization. It encompasses various aspects of management, including
leadership, decision-making, planning, coordination, communication, and execution. Thus,
management soundness is crucial for an organization's success and sustainability. Relevant
factors include how banks limit total expenditure in relation to total income as well as the
proportion of operational expense to total expenditure.
Based on the calculation, the administrative expenses to total expenditure ratio are decreasing
in 2018 (35.78%) from 2017 (37.29%). However, it then increases again from 2019 (42.38%) to
2021 (69.78%). The lowest ratio is in 2018 which is 35.78%. This means that the performance
of Bank Rakyat is great because of the lower admin expenses amount. The highest ratio is in
2021, which amounted to 69.78%. This explains that the performance of Bank Rakyat is bad
due to the rise in admin expenses of the company.
