A study on Camel Rating of Bank Nifty components

Introduction

During the 20th century in most of the nations, domestic banking was generally subjected to
heavy regulations and financial repression. The growth and financial stability of the country
depends on the financial soundness of its banking sector.

The Indian banking sector has been working in a more open and globalize environment for
two decades since liberalization. The liberalization process of Indian Economy has made the
entry of new private sector banks possible and allowed the foreign sector banks to increase
their branches in the banking sector. Besides, following India’s commitment to the WTO,
foreign banks have been permitted to open more branches with effect from 1998-99.

With the increased competition and the emphatic on profitability, the public sector banks are
now moving towards on economic oriented model departing from the social approach
followed for decades. Thus, the restructuring of public sector banks and the emergence of
new banks in the private sector as well as the increased competition from foreign banks, have
improved the professionalism in the banking sector. The increased presence of the private and
foreign banks during the past decade has made the market structure of the banking sector in
terms of competitive pricing of services, narrow spreads, and improving the quality of the
services. The public sector banks, which had dominated the banking sector for decades, are
now feeling the heat of the competition from private and foreign sector banks.

The growth in the Indian Banking Industry has been more qualitative than quantitative and it
is expected to remain the same in the coming years. Based on the projections made in the
"India Vision 2020" prepared by the Planning Commission and the Draft 10th Plan, the report
forecasts that the pace of expansion in the balance-sheets of banks is likely to decelerate. The
total assets of all scheduled commercial banks by end-March 2010 is estimated at Rs
40,90,000 crores. That will comprise about 65 per cent of GDP at current market prices as
compared to 67 per cent in 2002-03. Bank assets are expected to grow at an annual composite
rate of 13.4 per cent during the rest of the decade as against the growth rate of 16.7 per cent
that existed between 1994-95 and 2002-03. It is expected that there will be large additions to
the capital base and reserves on the liability side.

Derviz et al. Prasuna (2003) analyzed the performance of Indian banks by adopting the CAMEL Model. the academicians. solvency and efficiency of Japanese Banks using CAMEL rating methodology. He focused explicitly on using a logical model applied to a database of defaulted banks in emerging markets. earnings ability and liquidity position. they evaluated capital adequacy. if a bank has not been examined for more than two quarters.Literature Review In the process of continuous evaluation of the bank’s financial performance of bank nifty components. off-site monitoring systems usually provide a more accurate indication of survivability than its CAMEL rating. Creating a ranking methodology based on camel rating parameters. scholars and administrators have made several studies on the CAMEL model but in different perspectives and in different periods. Statement of the problem Camel rating analysis is conducted on bank nifty components. Said and Saucier (2003) examined the liquidity. (2008) investigated the determinants of the movements in the long term Standard & Poor’s and CAMEL bank ratings in the Czech Republic during the period when the three biggest. Applying camel rating analysis to bank nifty components. innovative products and better bargains. The performance of 65 banks was studied for the period 2003-04. (1995) conducted a study on “A CAMEL Rating's Shelf Life” and their findings suggest that. Higher the camel rating better the profitability and performance of the banks. The author concluded that the competition was tough and consumers benefited from better services quality. . Cole et al. assets and management quality. Godlewski (2003) tested the validity of the CAMEL rating typology for bank's default modelisation in emerging markets. 2. Objectives of the study 1. for a representative sample of Japanese banks for the period 1993-1999.

The sum of these ranks was then taken to arrive at the group average of individual banks for each parameter. All the banks were first individually ranked based on the sub-parameters of each parameter. i. It is a management tool that measures capital adequacy. and journals and banks’ annual reports. .. earnings’ quality and liquidity of financial institutions. and efficiency of management. The period for evaluating performance through CAMEL in this study ranges from 2011-12 to 2015-16.e. Plan of Analysis: CAMEL is basically ratio based model for evaluating the performance of banks. and efficiency of management. Ace Analyzer. earning quality and liquidity ratios is collected from various sources such as annual reports of the banks. assets quality. asset quality. for 5 years. Prowess. Analyst journal and average of each ratio calculated for the period 200610. quality of earnings and liquidity of financial institutions. For the present research secondary data has been collected. Hypothesis H0: Camel rating parameter can be used to rate banks H1: Camel rating parameter cannot be used to rate banks Methodology: CAMEL is basically ratio based model for evaluating the performance of banks. Banks were ranked in the ascending/descending order based on the individual sub- parameter. Sources for the secondary data have been books. websites. The absolute data for twenty nationalized banks on capital adequacy. assets quality. Finally the composite rankings for the banks were arrived at after computing the average of these group averages. It is a management tool that measures capital adequacy. management efficiency.Scope of the study The camel rating is selected on the basis of market capitalization for these studies are bank nifty components.

this research also has some limitations.  Firstly. the findings may lead to certain positive suggestion which May be useful for the Indian banks. . the study has made an earnest attempt to carry out the research in its True perspective.Limitations of the study Like any other research study.
