Company is more sensitive to economic downturns, interest rate variability, and changes in market conditions. Has to be re-paid. There is less risk appetite in making investment decisions as a result. Loan covenants have to be met. Assets may be taken as collateral if the firm cannot pay. . Explain the difference between subordinate debentures and debentures. A subordinated debenture is a bond or debt obligation issued by a corporation that has junior priority status relative to other bondholders of the company in the event of a liquidation or dissolution. Since the claims of subordinated debentures are lower than those of other corporate creditors, they carry greater investment risk. Subordinated debentures are backed or secured only by the full faith and credit of the issuing corporation. A debenture is a document that either creates a debt or acknowledges it, and it is a debt without collateral. Debenture is thus like a certificate of loan or a loan bond evidencing the fact that the company is liable to pay a...

While the primary function of banks is to lend funds as loans to various sectors such as agriculture, industry, personal loans, housing loans etc., in recent times the banks have become very cautious in extending loans, this is due to mounting nonperforming assets (NPAs). Therefore, an NPA account not only reduces profitability of banks by provisioning in the profit and loss account, but their carrying cost is also increased which results in excess & avoidable management attention. Apart from this, a high level of NPA also puts strain on a banks net worth because banks are under pressure to maintain a desired level of Capital Adequacy and in the absence of comfortable profit level, banks eventually look towards their internal financial strength to fulfill the norms thereby slowly eroding the net worth. Considering all the above facts banking industry has to give more importance to...

...Risk and risk management 1. Credit Risk – The risk of loss of principal or loss of a financial reward stemming from a borrower's failure to repay a loan or otherwise meet a contractual obligation. Credit risk arises whenever a borrower is expecting to use future cash flows to pay a current debt. Investors are compensated for assuming credit risk by way of interest payments from the borrower or issuer of a debt obligation. The higher the perceived credit risk, the higher the rate of interest that investors will demand for lending their capital. Credit risks are calculated based on the borrowers' overall ability to repay. This calculation includes the borrowers' collateral assets, revenue-generating ability and taxing authority (such as for government and municipal bonds). 1) Total loans to assets The loans to assets ratio measures the total loans outstanding as a percentage of total assets. The higher this ratio indicates a bank is loaned up and its liquidity is low. The higher the ratio, the more risky a bank may be to higher defaults. This figure is determined as follows: Loans to Assets = ( Loans / Total Assets ) 2) Nonperforming loans/total loans Nonperforming loans, or NPL, are loans that are no longer producing income for the bank that owns them. Loans become nonperforming when borrowers stop making payments and the loans enter default. The exact classification can vary from institution to institution, but a loan is usually considered to be nonperforming after...

...| Debt Management Program in the Philippines | The first debt and debt service reduction operation the World Bank financed was the Debt Management Program Loan to the Philippines, approved in 1990. Its main objective was to help restore the Philippines' creditworthiness by reducing the destabilizing pressures exerted by an excessive debt-service burden. The government, having inherited a huge debt service obligation, formulated a debt restructuring program for the country and a request for debt-relief from creditors, with assistance from the Bank and the IMF. Several events helped improve the Philippines' creditworthiness. Three of them are particularly relevant to the operation. First, the government adopted a program of deep structural and macroeconomic reform. Second, it reduced the debt stock by about $650 million equivalent, or about 2.3 percent of its outstanding debt at the time, using Bank and IMF financing to buy back $1.46 billion of debt from commercial banks at 50 percent discount. And finally, by signaling confidence in the Philippines' commitment to sound macroeconomic reform, the Debt Management Loan opened up international financial markets for the country. However, the program's success also led to a new problem. It encouraged new loans and other inflows of capital, which eventually became a major source of monetary problems and instability. The resulting increase in inflation forced the government to rein in the economy, suppressing growth; the currency...

The borrower initially receives an amount of money from the lender which they pay back, using but not always in regular installment. Types of loans There are many different types of loans you can take out. When you are looking to borrow money, it’s important that you know your options. i. Open-ended loans: they are loans that you can borrow over and over again. Credit cards and lines of credit are the most common types of open-ended loans. With both of these loans, you have a credit limit that you can purchase against. Each time you make a purchase, your available credit decreases. As you make payments, your available increases allowing you to use the same credit over and over. ii. Closed-ended loans: this cannot be borrowed once they have been repaid. As you make payments on closed-ended loans, the balance of the loan goes down. However, you do not have any available credit you can use on closed-ended loans. Instead, if you need to borrow more money, you would have to apply for another loan. Common types of closed-ended loans include mortgage loans, auto loans and students’ loans. iii. Secured loans: These are loans that rely on...

...becomes a crucial and high priority mission in such risky environment. Question 1: First, it is important and necessary to identify all the kind of risk Wellfleet Bank faces in this strategy. Syndicated and leveraged loans have played important roles in Wellfleet Banks’ corporate bank business since 2004. Facility for Gatwick Gold Corporation, with a large amount of debt already, a 1-year bridging loan of $1billion is considered as a leveraged loan. Gatwick Gold Corporation had committed a $50 million facility before. A sudden increase in this limit by $1 billion surprised relationship manager Jaidev Kapoor, who had 10-year working experience in Wellfleet. In addition, a syndicated loan agreement is the kind of loan in which a borrower requires a large or sophisticated facility or multiple types of facility by the channel through funding from a group of lenders. It facilitates the loan process by combining several separate bilateral loans, each with different terms and conditions, into one agreement between the borrower and the whole group of banks. Term loan facility and revolving loan facility are the two major types of facility commonly syndicated. Under a term loan facility, lenders only provide a specified amount of capital over the period of loan at a fixed interest rate. In contrast, lenders provide an aggregate amount of capital in several times over...

At present all her children go to school and she is able to bear both the educational and family expenses. Along with that she is now able to make some personal savings additional to general savings of "Jonaki samiti". But things were not the same even few years earlier. Her husband was a day labourer and it was very hard to bear family expenses with his single income.

After the repayment of first loan amount she applied again for an amount of Taka 20,000. Considering her financial condition and determination "Jonaki Samiti" sanctioned the loan. Inspired...
