Assets Liability Management
It is a dynamic process of Planning,
Organizing & Controlling of Assets
& Liabilities- their volumes, mixes,
maturities, yields and costs in order
to maintain liquidity and NII.

Purpose & Objective of ALM
An effective Asset Liability Management Technique
aims to manage the volume, mix, maturity, rate
sensitivity, quality and liquidity of assets and
liabilities as a whole so as to attain a predetermined
acceptable risk/reward ration.
It is aimed to stabilize short-term profits, long-term
earnings and long-term substance of the bank. The
parameters for stabilizing ALM system are:
1.
2.
3.
Net Interest Income (NII)
Net Interest Margin (NIM)
Economic Equity Ratio
RBI DIRECTIVES
• Issued draft guidelines on 10th Sept’98.
• Final guidelines issued on 10th
implementation of ALM w.e.f. 01.04.99.
Feb’99
for
• To begin with 60% of asset &liabilities will be covered;
100% from 01.04.2000.
• Initially Gap Analysis to be applied in the first stage of
implementation.
• Disclosure to Balance Sheet on maturity pattern on
Deposits, Borrowings, Investment & Advances w.e.f.
31.03.01
Liquidity Management
Bank’s liquidity management is the process
of generating funds to meet contractual or
relationship obligations at reasonable prices
at all times.
New loan demands, existing commitments,
and deposit withdrawals are the basic
contractual or relationship obligations that a
bank must meet.

Analysis of following factors throw light on a
bank’s adequacy of liquidity position:
Historical Funding requirement
Current liquidity position
Anticipated future funding needs
Sources of funds
Options for reducing funding needs
Present and anticipated asset quality
Present and future earning capacity and
Present and planned capital position
Funding Avenues
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
To satisfy funding needs, a bank must
perform one or a combination of the
following:
Dispose off liquid assets
Increase short term borrowings
Decrease holding of less liquid assets
Increase liability of a term nature
Increase Capital funds
Types of Liquidity Risk
• Liquidity Exposure can stem from both
internally and externally.
• External liquidity risks can be geographic,
systemic or instrument specific.
• Internal liquidity risk relates largely to
perceptions of an institution in its various
markets: local, regional, national or
international
Other categories of liquidity risk
• Funding Risk
- Need to replace net outflows due to
unanticipated withdrawals/non-renewal
• Time Risk
- Need to compensate for non-receipt of
expected inflows of funds
• Call Risk
- Crystallization of contingent liability
Statement of Structural Liquidity
All Assets & Liabilities to be reported as per
their maturity profile into 8 maturity Buckets:
i.
1 to 14 days
ii. 15 to 28 days
iii. 29 days and up to 3 months
iv. Over 3 months and up to 6 months
v. Over 6 months and up to 1 year
vi. Over 1 year and up to 3 years
vii. Over 3 years and up to 5 years
viii. Over 5 years
STATEMENT OF
STRUCTURAL LIQUIDITY
• Places all cash inflows and outflows in the
maturity ladder as per residual maturity
• Maturing Liability: cash outflow
• Maturing Assets : Cash Inflow
• Classified in to 8 time buckets
• Mismatches in the first two buckets not to
exceed 20% of outflows
• Shows the structure as of a particular date
• Banks can fix higher tolerance level for other
maturity buckets.

ADDRESSING THE MISMATCHES
• Mismatches can be positive or negative
• Positive Mismatch: M.A.>M.L. and Negative
Mismatch M.L.>M.A.
• In case of +ve mismatch, excess liquidity can
be deployed in money market instruments,
creating new assets & investment swaps etc.
• For –ve mismatch,it can be financed from
market borrowings (Call/Term), Bills
rediscounting, Repos & deployment of foreign
currency converted into rupee.
STRATEGIES…
• To meet the mismatch in any maturity
bucket, the bank has to look into
taking deposit and invest it suitably
so as to mature in time bucket with
negative mismatch.
• The bank can raise fresh deposits of
Rs 300 crore over 5 years maturities
and invest it in securities of 1-29 days
of Rs 200 crores and rest matching
with other out flows.

SUCCESS OF ALM IN BANKS :
PRE - CONDITIONS
1. Awareness for ALM in the Bank staff at all
levels–supportive Management & dedicated
Teams.
2. Method of reporting data from Branches/ other
Departments. (Strong MIS).
3. Computerization-Full computerization,
networking.
4. Insight into the banking operations, economic
forecasting,

5. Linking up ALM to future Risk Management
Strategies.
Interest Rate Risk Management
• Interest Rate risk is the exposure of a bank’s
financial conditions to adverse movements
of interest rates.
• Though this is normal part of banking
business, excessive interest rate risk can
pose a significant threat to a bank’s earnings
and capital base.
• Changes in interest rates also affect the
underlying value of the bank’s assets,
liabilities and off-balance-sheet item.
Interest Rate Risk
• Interest rate risk refers to volatility in Net
Interest Income (NII) or variations in Net
Interest Margin(NIM).
• Therefore, an effective risk management
process that maintains interest rate risk
within prudent levels is essential to safety
and soundness of the bank.
Sources of Interest Rate Risk
• Interest rate risk mainly arises from:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Gap Risk
Basis Risk
Net Interest Position Risk
Embedded Option Risk
Yield Curve Risk
Price Risk
Reinvestment Risk
Measurement of Interest Rate Risk
• Gap Analysis- Simple maturity/re-pricing
Schedules can be used to generate simple
indicators of interest rate risk sensitivity of both
earnings and economic value to changing interest
rates.
- If a negative gap occurs (RSA<RSL) in given
time band, an increase in market interest rates
could cause a decline in NII.
- conversely, a positive gap (RSA>RSL) in a
given time band, an decrease in market interest
rates could cause a decline in NII.
Measurement of Interest Rate Risk
• Duration Analysis: Duration is a measure
of the percentage change in the economic
value of a position that occur given a small
change in level of interest rate.
