When and Why think of Stability?- The Crisis and Consequential instability?

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

• The crisis started in summer 2007 with lightning failure of Lehman Brothers, Washington Mutual Funds and 3 Iceland Banks.

• Mistrust and fear spread among Banks.

• Four Risk environmental factors still being probed:

– Financial Risk valuation models/methods – Risk Control Functions – Risk limiting strategies and – Bonus Culture.

A Perspective on the Indian Approach on the Financial Policy Making

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

• Prudential policy framework for banks addressing: – Leverage, liquidity, and counterparty concentration – Recognition of NBFCs as systemically important and extension of regulatory perimeter – An Active Capital Account management framework – Explicit regulation of key OTC derivative markets.

• Despite relatively low exposure to global markets, the contagion impact of any global shocks not ruled out.

3

Healthy Banking sector

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

•Tighter regulatory standards on capital, liquidity and leverage for banks; •Unregulated systematically important financial entities (NBFCs, Coops) brought under regulatory oversight •Addressing systemic risks arising from interconnectedness among financial sector entities •Regulating financial markets from a systemic risk perspective .

4

Key underpinnings

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

•Ensuring that – the process of being away from disintermediation is genuine – A clear, transparent capture of the risks within the prudential framework exists in the treatment of NBFCs •Credit quality robust •Share of low cost current and savings account deposits (CASA) is high •Banks are required to hold a minimum percentage of their liabilities in risk free government securities.

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

•“Maintenance involves trade-offs and raises a number of challenges.” of financial (Financial stability Stability Report, RBI, April 2010)

6

What is Financial Stability

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

•It is “a situation in which the financial sector provides critical services to the real economy without any discontinuity.” •Absence of financial instability: ‘containment of the likelihood of failure of individual financial firms or any systemic stress and thereby limiting the associated costs to the economy.’ •Arresting the possible consequence of ‘unknown unknowns’ and realising the limitations of modeling apparatus and stress testing exercises.

Central Banks and FS-Key Aspects

• Supervision of individual firms from a systemic perspective • Greater involvement of central banks where it is found wanting in supervision of systemically important entities • A collegial body of government/central bank/regulators • Reorientation of regulatory mandates of all regulators to also take into account a systemic perspective. • Monetary stability supports sound investment and sustainable growth leading to FS

Principal Perspectives of FS

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

•FS has critical influence on price stability and sustained growth •FS facilitates efficient transmission of monetary policy actions •From the regulatory and supervisory angle, FS safeguards the depositors’ interests and ensures stability of the financial system.

What made us distinct?

The counter-cyclical regulations applied ahead of the global crisis

helped us cushion against systemic instability.

Significant reduction in risk and rebound in market activityPressures on banking sector liquidity during the crisis together with

extraordinary measures taken led to shortening of the maturity profile of bank liabilities

Banks facing large refinancing needs in the following yearsManagement of funding risks skillfullyMore stable customer depositsSovereign and corporate CDS spreads broadly stabilised in Q2-2009Corrections in equity prices in Emerging Market economies witnessed

largely declines in the range of 30-67 percent.

Gains started only in the Q3-2009Stimulus measures significantly increased global liquidity. Forex markets – RBI’s presence in the market helped manage

volatility –Forward Premia in Indian forex markets lower than the rate dictated by interest differential.

Ratio Components Significance

(Volatile liabilities – Temporary Assets)/(Earnin g Assets – Temporary Assets)

Volatile Liabilities:

(Deposits + borrowing bills payable upto 1 year) Letters of credit – full outstanding Component Wise CCF of other contingent credit and commitments Swap funds (buy/sell) upto one year As per extant norms, 15 per cent of current deposits (CA) and 10 per cent of savings deposits (SA) are to be treated as volatile and shown in 1 14 days time bucket; remainder in 1-3 years bucket. Hence CASA deposits reported by banks as payable within one year are included under volatile liabilities Borrowings include from RBI, call, other institutions and refinance

Temporary assets:

Cash Excess CRR balances with RBI Balances with banks Bills purchased/discounted upto 1 year Investments upto one year Swap funds (sell/buy) upto one year

Earning Assets:

Total assets – (Fixed assets + Balances in current accounts with other banks + Other assets excl. leasing + Intangible assets) Measures the extent to which hot money supports bank’s basic earning assets. Since the numerator represents short term, interest sensitive funds, a high and positive number implies some risk of illiquidity.

Significance

2 3 Core deposits/Total Assets (Loans + mandatory SLR + mandatory CRR + Fixed Assets)/Total Assets

Core deposits:

All deposits (including CASA) above I year + net worth Total Assets: Balance sheet footing Measures the extent to which assets are funded through stable deposit base.

Gross Advances Required SLR Required CRR Fixed assets Loans including mandatory cash reserves and statutory liquidity investments are least liquid and hence a high ratio signifies the degree of ‘illiquidity’ embedded in the balance sheet.

Measure the extent to which illiquid assets are financed out of core deposits.

Greater than 1 (purchased liquidity) Less than 1 (stored liquidity)

Ratio

Temporary Assets/Total Assets Temporary Assets/Volatile Assets

Components Significance

Measures the extent of available liquid assets. A higher ratio could impinge on the asset utilisation of banking system in terms of opportunity cost of holding liquidity Measures the cover of liquid investments relative to volatile liabilities.

7 8 Volatile liabilities/Total Assets (Market value of Non – SLR Securities + Excess SLR Securities) / (Book Value of Non – SLR Securities + Excess SLR Securities) Item 5 divided by item 6 A ratio of less than 1 indicates the possibility of a liquidity problem.

Measures the extent to which volatile liabilities fund the balance sheet.

Measures the market value of non – SLR securities and excess SLR securities relative to their book value. A ratio exceeding 1 reflects that a bank stands to gain if it sells off its saleable portfolio Source: Report of the Committee on Financial Sector Assessment.

Macro Economic Environment

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

• Global activity contraction of 0.8% in 2009 expected to recover by about 3.9% in 2010 (IMF-World Economic Outlook Jan) • Global inflation remained subdued slipped into negative territory • Anaemic aggregate demand, sharp decline in oil prices since mid 2008 • Major corrections of agricultural commodity prices and metals • Decline in capacity utilization • Transfer of financial risks to sovereign balance sheets and higher public debt levels added to financial stability risks and complicated the stimulus-exit process

Soren Ramdhan Research Findings

• Financial Crisis started in summer 2007 with the lightning failure of Lehman Bros and Washington Mutual Funds and 3 Iceland Banks • It spread mistrust and fear among Banks and FIs • Four Risk Environmental Factors still being probed: – Financial Risk valuation models/methods – Risk Control Functions – Risk limiting strategies and – Bonus culture • Empirical evidence shows that financial risk performance was related with the factors: financial risk valuation models/methods and risk control functions. The factor risk control functions with the financial risk performance have a stronger relation than the factor financial risk valuation models/methods with financial risk performance. • Remarkably, no evidence is found to support the relation between financial risk performance and the factors: risk-limiting strategies and bonus culture.

Financial institutions can achieve better financial risk

performance by emphasizing more on the risk environmental conditions related with financial risk valuation models/methods and risk control functions.

Conclusions

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

28-4-2020

Financial risk performance (FRP) was related with financial risk valuation models/methods.

The beta of 0.331 is the extent of the relation

FRP was related with risk control functions (highest significant predictor).

The beta of 0.381 is the extent of the relation.

FRP was not related with risk-limiting strategies.

FRP was not related with bonus culture Overall risk management failed due to:

1) Underdeveloped financial risk valuation models/methods, 2) Poor performance of risk control functions

The determinants of FRP are RISK DRIVERS related with the following 13 REC’s:

Data, market variables, qualitative valuation methods, tail loss, stress test, and group-wide risk, system risk, solvability and integrity, strategic risk decision, day to-day operational risk activities, and traders’ risk awareness.

Recommendations (1)

Uniting Risk Professionals Worldwide

Financial institutions risk drivers.

must emphasize more on the risk drivers related with the (13) REC’s by ensuring proper governance around the Regulators must extend their control activities among the risk drivers related with the (13) REC’s to ensure that a proper governance is applied among FI’s Management of Risk Evaluation Controls holds the key
