INTRODUCTION
The composition of assets and liabilities largely decide the solvency, liquidity and
of the liabilities determine the cost of funds. The mix of the assets influences the return
on investment. Therefore the asset liability management assumes great importance; also,
maturity (tenure) and relative costs (minimum or interest differential) particularly in the
control of increasing pressure on margins. In the case of state financial corporation, the
instrumentality of Business Plan and Resources Forecast (BPRF) and effective treasury
imbalances in the resource mix and the avoidable misalignments between the profile of
liabilities and the portfolio of assets. While BPRF is introduced at the instance of
THE CRUX
The Asset - liability management broadly deals with both sides of the balance
sheet. It is primarily concerned with the market risk that arises from a financial
institutions structural position. These are interest rate and liquidity risks. The interest rate
risk arises from the possibility of change in profits caused by fluctuations in interest rates.
The delay in recoveries, a principle cause of liquidity risk, leads to possibility of lost
10
opportunities and damage due to honoring payment commitments. Both these risks are
obviously the result of mismatch between the FIs / Banks Assets and Liabilities.
In case of banks of FIs , the ALM positions are relatively liquid. Usually the
banking institutions hold the assets and liabilities until they mature. This practice of
loans into marketable securities and then sell them or trade them with other banks as well
is a new phenomenon in the Indian context. But it has a vast scope. It can make or mar
the future of a financial institution. The stability, profitability, growth and image of a
financial institutions largely depend upon the ability and skill with which it can conduct
its ALM.
THE SCOPE
ALM in relation of SFCs covers a wide gamut of both sources and applications of
funds. The drying up of some of the conventional sources, the choice of the basket, rising
cost of funds available and the associated stringent conditions, growing competition for
the access to the sources and the need for arresting the erosion of net worth are the main
challenges in managing the liabilities. On the assets side, the key issues are the resource
allocation, the asset portfolio-mix, the yields, the recoveries, NPA management, write off
policies and above all the market and credit risk management
11
INSIGHT (Capacity of Understanding Hidden Truth)
The aggregates of either side of any balance sheet will automatically balance. This is pure
logic and no magic is involved. It is true in all cases, simply based on common sense, no
categories of assets and their interface with liabilities. It is desirable to synchronize the
profiles of assets with the counterparts among liabilities, perhaps we may cal them their
shadows. True balancing involves intelligence matching risk mapping and contingency
arrangements.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Asset - liability management practices which effect from April 1, 1999. While guidelines
on management of credit risk, market risk and operational risk will be issued later on,
The RBI has issued guidelines for the introduction of Asset - liability management
(ALM) as a part of the risk management and control system in banks. They are intended
to form the basis for initiating collection, compilations and analysis of dates required to
Over the last few years, the Indian Financial System markets have witnessed wide-
ranging changes at a fast pace. Intense competition for business involving both the assets
and liabilities together with increasing volatility in the domestic interest rates as well as
foreign exchange rates, has brought pressure on the management of banks to maintain a
good balance among measures. The bank management has to base their business decision
on a dynamic and integrated risk management system and process, driven by corporate
strategy. The banks are exposed to several major risks in the course of the business credit
risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, and equity/commodity price risk. Liquidity

management programs should be that their programs evolve into a strategy tool for bank
management.
In the normal course, FIs are exposed to credit and market risks in view of the asset
liability transformation. With liberalization in Indian Financial markets, over the last few
years and growing integration of domestic markets and the entry of MNCs for meeting
the credit needs of not only the corporates but also the retail segments, the risks
associated with FIs operations have become complex and large, requiring strategic
management. FIs are now operating in a fairly deregulated environment and are required
to determine interest rates on deposits, they can also offer deposits prescribe by the RBI;
they can also offer advances on dynamic basis. The interest rates on investments of FI in
government and other securities are also now market related. Intense competition for
business involving both assets and liabilities has brought pressure on the management of
FIs to maintain a good balance among spreads, profitability and long-term liability.
Imprudent liquidity management can put FIs earnings and reputation at great risk. The
management of FIs have to base their business decisions on a dynamic and integrated risk
management system and process driven by corporate stratey, FIs are exposed to several
major risks in the course of their business; credit risk, interest rate risk, equity/commodity
price risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. It is, therefore, important that FIs introduce
effective risk measure management systems that address the issues relating to interest rate
20
Financial institutions need to address these risks in a structural manner by upgrading their
practices than has been done hitherto. ALM, among other functions, is also concerned
with risk management and provides a comprehensive and dynamic framework for
measuring, monitoring and managing liquidity and interest rates and equity and
commodity price risks of major operators in the financial system, which needs to be
closely integrated with the FIs business strategy. It involves assessment of various types
of risks and altering the asset-liability portfolio in a dynamic order to manage risks.
The RBI guidelines relate to interest rate and liquidity risks management system in FIs ,
The initial focus of the ALM function would be to enforce the risk management
discipline that is managing business after assessing the risks involved. The objective of

and strategic decision making with risk management. Th board of directors of FIs should
have overall responsibility for management of risks and should decide its risk

adherence to the limits set by the board of directors as well as for deciding the business

review the result of and progress in implementation of the decision made in the previous
meeting. The ALCO should also articulate the current interest rate view of the FIs and
base its decision for future business strategy on this view. With respect to the funding
policy, for instance, its responsibility would be to decide on the source and mix of
liabilities or sale of assets. Towards this end, it should develop a view regarding the
future direction of interest rate movements and decide on funding mixes between fixes

Generally, these are two major parameters, which banks/FIs all over the world
employ to measure their balance sheet risks viz., risk to the net interest income and
While the former seeks to measure the risk to the immediate profits that emanate
from cash flow mismatches occurring in the accounting years, the latter measures the risk
arising out of the maturity mismatches in its assets and liabilities over the future years.
These two parameters together attend to the short term and long-term balance sheet risk.
27
Due to difficulty in measuring interest rate risk and also the controversies the
present in the understanding of the concept measurement of interest rate risk assumes
greater importance in the ALM function. It has observed that banks risk exposure
depends upon the volatility of interest rates and asset prices in the financial market, the
FIs maturity/gaps, the duration to measure and interest rate elasticity of its assets and
liabilities and the liability of the management to measure and control the exposure. In the
management of FIs assets and liabilities, interest risk management lays the foundation for
a good ALM.
RISK ANALYSIS
1. Gap analysis
2. Duration analysis
3. Value at risk
4. Simulation
Gap analysis is the most important basic technique used in analyzing interest
rate risk.It measures the difference between financial institution assets and liabilities and
off balance sheet position which will be re priced or will mature within a predetermine
period.(Gap is the difference between rate sensitive assets minus rate sensitive liabilities)
28
Risk management may be defined as the process of identifying and controlling
measure, monitor and control various items of risk associated with FIs position and
transaction. The process of risk management has three clearly identifiable steps, viz., risk

2. Liquidity risk
It is the impact of the change in interest rate on the net interest income of the bank
(a) When fixed deposits are accepted on the fixed rate basis and the amount is lent on
floating rate basis, any download revision of interest rate on advances will result in
the reduction of income stream for the bank FIs . But interest rate on deposits cab be
changed only when they fall due or pre closed by the depositor.
30
(b) A bonds (investments asset of the bank) price falls down as interest rate rise.
2.LIQUIDITY RISK
Liquidity is the potential inability to meet the banks/FIs as they become due. It
rises when FI are unable to generate cash to cope with the declines in deposits or increase
in loans. It originates the mismatches in the maturity of assets and liabilities as well as

Traditionally the credit risk refers to the risk that a borrower or counter party will
fail to meet its obligations. Lending, from credit cards to corporate loans, from credit
cards to corporate loans, is the largest and most obvious source of credit risk. But credit

Market risk may be defined as the possibility of the loss to financial institution
caused by changes in market variables. The financial institution defines market risk as the
risk that the value on and off balance sheet position will be adversely affected by
movements in the equity and interest rate of markets, currency, exchange rate and
commodity prices.

MANAGEMENT OF LIQUIDITY RISK AND INTEREST

LIQUIDITY RISK
Measuring and managing liquidity needs are vital for the effective operations of
financial institution. By ensuring a FIs ability to meet its liabilities as then become due,
liquidity management can reduce the probability of an adverse situation developing. The
institution can have repercussion on the entire system. The FIs management should
measure not only the liquidity position of FIs on an ongoing basis but also examine how
liquidity requirements are likely to evolve under different assumptions. Experience show
that assets commonly considered as liquid, like government securities and other money
market instrument, could also become liquid when the market and players are
unidirectional. Therefore, liquidity has to tracked through, the use of the maturity or cash

institution in pricing most of the assets and liabilities imply the need for the financial
system to hedge the interest rate risk, defined as the risk where changes in market interest
rates might adversely affects on FIs financial condition. The change in interest reates
affects FIs in a larger way. The immediate impact of changes in interest rates is on FIs
earnings (i.e., reported profits), by changing its net interest income (NIT). A long term
impact of changing interest rates is in FIs market value of Equity (MVE) or net worth, as

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
1. Gap Analysis
2. Duration Analysis
3. Trend Analysis
4. Ration Analysis
1.GAP ANALYSIS:
interest rate risk sensitivity of both earnings and economic value to changing interest
rates. When this approach is used to asses the interest rate risk of current earnings. It
is typically referred to as gap analysis. Gap analysis was one of the first methods
developed to measure FIs interest rate risk exposure and continues to be widely used
by Fis. To evaluate earnings exposure, interest rate sensitive liabilities in each time
band are subtraced from the corresponding interst rate sensitive asset to produce a re-
pricing gap for that time band. This gap can be multiplied by as assume change in
interest rate to yield an approximation of the change in the interest rate income that
would result from such as interest rate movement. The size of the interest rate
movement used in the analysis can be used on a variety of factors, including historical
experience. Simulation of potential future interest rate movements and the judgement
exceeds assets (including off-balance sheet positions) in a given time band. This
60
means that an increase in market interest rates could cause a decline in net interest
income. Conversely, a positive or assets–sensitive. Gap implies that the FIs net
interest rate income could decline as a result of decrease in the levels of the interest
rates.
rate risk exposure, it has a number of shortcomings. First, gap analysis does not take
particulars all positions with in a given time band are assumed to mature or reprice
of the estimates as the degree of aggregation with in a time band increases, moreover
gap analysis ignore differences in spreads between interest rates that could arise as
the level of the market interest rates changes. In addition, it does not take into account
any changes in the timing of payments that might occur as a result of changes in the
interest rate environment. Thus, it fails to account for differences in the sensitivity of
income that may arise form option-related positions, for these reasons gap analysis
provides only a rough approximation to the actual change in net interest income
would result from the chosen change in the pattern of interest rates. Finally, most gap
analysis fail to capture variability in non interest revenues and expenses, potentiality
61
2.CURRENT ANALYSIS
interest rates on FIs economic value by applying sensitivity weights to each time
band. Typically, such weights are based on estimates of the duration of the assets and
liabilities that fall into each time band. Duration give a small change in the level of
interest rates. Duration may also be defined as the weighted average of the time until
expected cash flows from a security will be receive, relative to the current price of the
security. The weights are the present values of each cash flow divided by the current
price. In its simples form, duration measures changes in economic value resulting
from a percentage change of interest rates under the simplifying assumptions that
changes in value are proportional to changes in the level of interest rates and that the
market interest rate is elasticity. As such, it reflects the percentage change in the
economic value of the instrument for a given percentage change in the economic
value of the instrument for a given percentage change in 1+r. as with simple duration,
62
3.TREND ANALYSIS
This is a statistical tool with his we can find out the position of anything in
financial institution, I did the trend analysis of “cumulative mismatch of last one year
as percentage to working funds”, by this, it is possible to know that how that
fluctuations in working funds take place in the one year mismatches.
4.RATIO ANALYSIS
The liquidity ratios are very useful in the liquidity risk management analysis.
Because with the ratios we can analyze the liquidity positions of the company by
taking the past data and we can interprete the findings. Here in financial institution,
we should also given by the RBI on the bank, by observing the limits and of findings
we can analyze as FIs is with in the limits or not.
• Quick ratio.
The ratios, which helps to find out liquidity position of all financial institution.
63
Liquidity and Interest rate analysis:
This is the only tool, which is used in the ALM process to manage the liquidity
risk, by doing the gap analysis, FIs can avoid risks and can earn more profits, and this is
used to analyze the gaps in between the inflows and outflows of the statement for every
fortnight. By doing the gap analysis the FIs can know about in ;which bucket the risk.
This gap raised due to the changes in the values of the assets and liabilities and changes
in their interest rates. For measuring and managing net funding requirements the use of
maturity ladder and calculation of cumulative surplus / deficit of funds at selected
maturity data is suggested for adoption by FI. The maturity profile is used to measure the
future cash flows of banks different buckets.
BUCKTING:
The time columns used in the below statement, are called as the time buckets.
These buckets are mainly divided in to three types short – term, medium – term and long
term. Allocating the items of inflows and outflows in these column is called as bucketing.
64
Over 1 month to 3 months
To analyze the statement a person should have to get grip on the various items of
liquidity statement. Various items are covered in the statement under the inflow and
outflows.
65
Methods to bucket:
The nature of the each item is different with others. So few models are used to
find out under which bucket it will come. Like residua maturity, behaviouralization.
Residual Maturity:
This is the type where the item due date is taken as a base to bucket. Based on
maturity date and the strting date of the item time period is calculated. Statements
preparation data should also be considered.
Behaviourlization: -
This is the another model which also used for the statement preparation.
Behaviorlizaiton means finding out the behavior in the future based in the past data. For
this, statistical tools should be used like regression analysis methods, moving averages,
trend analysis and various methods are used. In financial institution, behaviorlizaiton is
used to various item in them cash credit is in item.

D.FINANCING OF GAPS
The negative gap (i.e., where outflows exceed inflows) in the 1 to 30/31 days time bucket
should not exceed the prudential limit of 15 percent of outflows of each time bucket and
the cumulative gap, up to the one year period, should not exceed 15 percent of the cumulative
cash out flows of the one year period. In case these limits are exceeded, the measure proposed for bringing
the gaps within the limit should be shown by a footnote in the relative statement.

POSITIVE Increases Positive
- To set limits on the maximum cumulative outflows and inflows. The limit of
inflows is needed to control positive gapping.
- Sub limits should be imposed on long term gaps (over 1 year). Then risks to
earnings increase as gaps lengthen in maturity because of uncertain interest
rate risk levels, which are affected by future economic, political and
regulatory developments.

- The economic value of portfolio equity
- The economic the gap in the duration between assets and liabilities.

SUMMARY AND
CONCLUSIONS
1. ALM is a strategic approach of managing the balance sheet dynamics in such a way
that the net earnings are maximized and it ensure the level and risk ness with the risk
90
2. The compositions of assets and liabilities largely decides the solvency, liquidity and
3. The reduction of liquidity risk by lengthen the maturity of liabilities implies less
profitability because ling tern funds to be more expansive than short term funds.

FINDINGS
FINDINGS
RISKS
92
1. It is found that in APSFC the liquidity risk will not arise as far as RBI chest having
with it.
2. After the deregulation only this risk analysis came into the main picture.
4. ALM is the process, which is using manly to liquidity risk and interest rate risk.
5. The changes in the interest rate always has a effect in the risk management.
6. Interest rate risk can influence more the business than the liquidity risk in market.
7. Dealing with liquidity risk is easier than dealing with the interest rate risk.
8. The statistical tools, which used for the liquidity risk are easier than the interest rate
risk tools.
9. The information comes from the head office regarding forex risk, which discussed in
ALCO.
93
SUGGESTIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
94
2. Maturity patterns stipulations by RBI are not framed properly.
3. The methods of date acquisition for managing the liquidity risk management and
4. Better analysis required day by day date of the branches and more methods should be
applied.
5. The F1 should have package which is required to organized the bucket format which
branch basis.
