Fee-based and Fund-based Products/Services in Banking Sector
Banks offer different products and services to its individual customers, such as
cash deposits, interest on deposits, loans, etc. Besides individual customers,
banks also cater to corporates under their corporate banking department. Under
the corporate banking, banks offer various fund-based and non-fund based (feebased) products to its corporate customers. With this assignment we look at
some of the fee and fund based products/services in the banking sector. They are
as follows:
(I) Fee based Products/Services
a) Letter of Credit: When a buyer has to purchase/import goods from an
unknown seller/exporter, they can take assistance of banks in such transactions.
On the buyers credit worthiness, the bank issues a letter of credit- a document
from a bank guaranteeing that the seller (exporter) will receive payment is full,
as long as certain delivery conditions have been met. In an event, if the buyer
(importer) is unable to make the payment, the bank shall cover the outstanding
amount.
b) Bank Guarantee: A bank guarantee is a guarantee issued by the bank in case
of an occurrence or non-occurrence of a particular event, the bank guarantees to
make good the loss of money as stipulated in the contract. The bank analyses
the credit worthiness/ business capacity of the client and issues different types
of bank guarantees like financial guarantees, performance bank guarantees,
deferred payment guarantees, etc. Bank guarantee can be issues against cash
margin and mortgage of immovable property.
c) Credit Reports: The banks evaluate the credit worthiness of a debtor, business
or the government. Credit reports are the evaluation of the debtors ability to
pay back the debt in the likelihood of default. The bank collects the latest
audited financials, analyses them and the financial risk is weighed based on
various performance figures/financial ratios. Then the bank marks management
risk and market risk followed by judging and marking the compliance to
sanction terms and business consideration. After summing up the above
evaluations, the numeric rating is allotted assessing the credit risk.
d) Solvency Certificate: Solvency certificate is issued to individual/firms
declaring their financial standing for the purpose of standing surety in favor of
some body, securing loans, securing business contractors, etc. Solvency
certificate is issued on the basis of properties owned by the applicants in their
own name, salaries received by the individuals and the income tax/sales tax
returns.
e) Stock Broking: Stock broker is an individual/organization which is licensed to
participate in the securities market on the behalf of clients. The banks as
stockbrokers act as an agent to buy and sell securities and provide information
to assist its customers in making correct investment decision. Banks offer online
share trading facility for trading in Indian equity markets complying with RBI
guidelines and provide safe and secure transactions.
f) Loan Syndication: A loan offered by a group of lenders (syndicate) who work
together to provide funds for a single borrower. The borrower could be a
corporation, large project or sovereignty (govt.). The loan may involve fixed
amounts, credit line or combination of both. There is a lead bank/underwriter of
the loan, known as the arranger, agent or lead lender; which proportionally put
up a bigger share of the loan or disperse cash flow amongst other syndicate
members. The main goal of syndicated loans is spreading risk of borrower
default among multiple lenders (banks/institutions).
(II) Fund based Products / Services
a) Cash Credit: Cash credit is granted by banks on keeping a certain percentage
of the current assets value as margin money. The cash credit facility is generally
granted for one year and subject to review at the expiry of on year. The
borrower is require to submit a cash credit proposal to the bank along with
CMA data through which the bank analyses the working capital gap of the
borrower that can be funded by the bank. Cash credit can be secured by either
hypothecation of stock of goods or offering adequate collateral security in the
form of immovable properties acceptable to the bank. Cash credit can be taken
for buying raw materials, meeting business expenses, overheads, etc.
b) Overdraft: Overhead is a credit facility in the nature of a credit account from
which the borrower can avail the funds anytime at his/her convenience, but, the
upper limit is fixed depending on the value of the security offered by the
borrower to the bank. Overdraft can be availed against any financial assets
(FDs, bonds, shares), physical assets and immovable properties (godowns,
residential houses, commercial office space, etc.)
c) Bill Discounting: Bill discounting is a short tenure financing instrument for
companies willing to discount their purchase/sales bulls to get funds for the
short run and as for the investors in them. While discounting a bill, the bank
buys the bill before its due and credits the value of the bill after a discount
charge to the customers account. The amount of the discount depends on the
amount of time left before the bill matures and on the perceived risk attached to
the bill.
