| Summary: | The purpose of the report is to present the findings from IFC’s recent survey on
risk and nonperforming loan management practices in financial institutions together
with supporting benchmarks and global trends in risk management.
Top tier financial institutions in their respective markets have participated in the
survey, including 25 SME focused banks and 2 microfinance institutions in 18
countries (see Exhibit 1). The emphasis on credit risk in this report stems from
credit risk being the largest risk taken by SME focused banks.
The report aims to help emerging market financial institutions that participated in
the survey:
Better understand the current state of their risk management capabilities in
credit risk, loan portfolio monitoring and nonperforming loan management.
Be able to compare their current risk management capabilities in these areas
with peers in emerging and developed markets.
Provide a basis for identifying key areas where their risk management can be
enhanced going forward. |
