BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION • Bank Profits • P = Loans x Realized Loan Yield minus Deposits x Cost per $ of Deposits - Fixed Expenses • RLY = Contractual rate x Good Loan Fraction - (1-Recov. rate) x Bad Loan Fraction • Cost of Deposits = Interest paid plus the cost of free services • Fixed Costs = the cost of everything else the bank needs to run the business All Rights Reserved
BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION B. Realized Loan Yield Example • RLY = Contractual rate x Good Loan Fraction - (1-Recov. rate) x Bad Loan Fraction • Consider an average rate of 12%, 90% good loans and a recovery rate of 85% on bad loans. The RLY in this example is 9.3% • RLY = .12 x .9 - (1-.85) x .10 = .093 or 9.3% • If the bank has a $100,000,000 portfolio, that equates to $9,300,000 in interest income after writing off $1,500,000 in bad loan losses (against $10,800,000 interest income) All Rights Reserved
BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION • Return on Equity: ROE = Profits / Equity • Methods of Increasing ROE • Lower Equity (increase leverage); a risky move in a volatile environment – especially during periods of low profitability • Equity Ratio = equity / loans and investments All Rights Reserved
BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION • Raise Profits by increasing revenue: • Increase contractual rates • Lend more money; need to increase deposits, • Decrease free services or start charging for them • Lower variable costs • Lower fixed costs; problem of indivisibility • Tighten loan standards; could result in lowering total loan portfolio • Offer other low-cost high margin services; i.e., brokerage, insurance, etc • Increasing size to get benefits of scale • Securitizing collateralized loans; retaining servicing fee income All Rights Reserved
BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION • Market Considerations • Competition limits ability to raise loan rates, reduce services, or reduce deposit rates • Increasing loan rates and decreasing deposit rates increases the Net Interest Margin • Ability to make loans a function of; (1) excess reserves or (2) required reserve ratio • Customers know more than the bank • Problem of asymmetric information • Adverse selection; raise rates and best quality customers may leave All Rights Reserved
BANK PERFORMANCE EVALUATION • The Risk-Return Tradeoff • Competition and adverse selection limit ability to increase earnings from lending • Other investments offer higher returns but carry interest rate risk; • Rather than lending, could invest depositors cash in interest earning securities • As interest rates change, value of the investment portfolio changes • What happens when value of the assets are less that value of liabilities? • A Final Pass on Deposits, Reserves, and Liquidity • Increasing deposits also increases variable costs • Ability to make loans a function of excess reserves (cash in vault: opportunity cost) • Liquidity is necessary to service client demand for cash All Rights Reserved
WHY BANKS FAIL • The Most Frequently Given Reasons for Bank Failure • Bank officer fraud • Excessive Bad Loans • Inadequate Liquidity / Inadequate Capital • Deregulation and Resultant Increase in Competition • Regulatory forbearance • Non preparedness for increase in interest rate risk All Rights Reserved
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BANK MANAGEMENT • Bank Response to New Capital Requirements • Issuance of new stock • Merger with a stronger bank • Shrinking the Balance Sheet.; reduction in assets, w/o changes in equity, increases equity ratio or pushing for acquisition by larger bank • Risk weights increase attractiveness of Government securities. (also subjects them to interest rate risk) • Shifting from riskier assets within each category • Take on more interest- and exchange-rate risk • Take on risk as Forward Intermediary; i.e., selling derivatives All Rights Reserved
SOURES OF RISK IN BANK PORTFOLIOS • Examining the Proportion of Rate Sensitive Assets and Liabilities • GAP Analysis → Changes in Income • GAP = Rate Sensitive Assets (RSA) – Rate Sensitive Liabilities (RSL) • DI = GAP * Di 2. Rate Sensitive Assets: • Short-Term Loans (Maturities 1 year or less); commercial or consumer • Variable Rate Mortgages • The proportion of fixed rate mortgages that are repaid early • The proportion of auto loans paid early • Rate Sensitive Liabilities • Money Market Deposits • Variable Rate CDs and CDs maturing in 1 year or less • Borrowings with maturities 1 year or less All Rights Reserved
RISK IN BANK PORTFOLIOS • Interest Rate Changes and GAP • If a financial institution has more rate sensitive liabilities (RSL) than rate sensitive assets (RSA), then the GAP will be negative: • GAP = RSA – RSL • If RSL > RSA, then GAP < 0 (negative) • Any increases in Interest rates will reduce the GAP (or net interest rate margin) and result in net income decline: All Rights Reserved
RISK IN BANK PORTFOLIOS • Bank Profits a function of interest rate expectations • If interest rates expected to go up, then allocate assets to short-term loans → rollover at higher rates • If interest rates expected to go down, allocate assets to long-term loans → less rollover • Forecasting interest rates is important • Effects on GAP of Proportions of RSA and RSL • Magnitude of excess reserves is key to loss containment strategy All Rights Reserved
MANAGING INTEREST RATE RISK (Gap) • Forecasting interest rates is important • Effects on GAP of Proportions of RSA and RSL • Magnitude of excess reserves is key to loss containment strategy • Assets and Liabilities tend to be rate sensitive • The Gap between the Yields on Assets and the Implicit Costs of Liabilities sensitive to changes in asset maturity and deposit turnover All Rights Reserved
MANAGING INTEREST RATE RISK (Gap) • Potential Strategies • Maturity matching; would drive Commercial banks to short-term loans • Floating-rate loans; unpopular with borrowers • Financial Futures; high leverage, high risk (basis risk) • Interest Rate Swaps; potentially risky if wrong on expectations or arrangements • The Scenarios for Interest rate Swaps • Long-Run increase in interest rates; decreases the gap • Long-Run decrease in interest rates; increases the gap All Rights Reserved
MANAGING INTEREST RATE RISK (The Gap) • Types of SWAPS: • Fixed rate for Floating Rate Swap: rates calculated at time of swap • Forward Swap; setting the rates now for future swap • Swaptions: hybrid arrangements for early termination • Callable Swap: party making fixed payments option to terminate before maturity [Desirable if interest rates decline] • Putable Swap: party making floating payments option to terminate before maturity [Desirable if interest rates increase] All Rights Reserved
HOMEWORK QUESTIONS • How are depository institutions' profits determined? • How does the bank realized loan yield (RLY) affected by credit policies? • If a bank has low ROE (or ROA), what strategies might it pursue? • What determines the ability of a bank to expand loan activity? • What is meant by Adverse Selection? How does it affect bank operations? • How have banks responded to the capital requirements under the BIS standard? • What is the single largest source of risk for banks? • What are Swaps and how do banks use them? • What are the special considerations involved in structuring Swap deals? • What are the ways banks can increase their profits? • What are the two biggest dangers they face in doing so? • Why are banks trying to get larger and to expand their activities? All Rights Reserved
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BANK MANAGEMENT • Banking Regulation Seeks to Reduce Financial Shocks • Banks must have higher levels of capital; BIS (Bank for International Settlements) • Tier 1: Book Value of Stock plus retained earnings • Tier 2: Sum of Loan-Loss reserves and subordinated debt • Total capital = Tier 1 plus Tier 2 • How much a bank must have in each category a function of risk-adjusted assets • Risk-Weighted Capital Requirements and Asset Types; • Cash and Government Securities = 0 risk weight • Loans = 1.0 risk weight • Mortgages = 0.5 weight • Inter bank deposits = 0.2 weight All Rights Reserved
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BANK MANAGEMENT • The [Separate] Leverage Requirement • Tier 1 capital; 3% of all unweighted assets • If risky, may require 4-6% • Off-Balance Sheet assets not counted All Rights Reserved
