Chairmans Statement
It is with great pleasure I report that Standard Chartered Bank Nepal Limited has once again maintained its track record of consistent performance and has registered an impressive result for the fiscal year ended 16 July 2010. Delivering record results in this challenging economic and socio-political environment is indeed a commendable accomplishment. The foundation of success has been built mainly on our ability to follow a consistent strategy and focus of business in the areas of our strength. During the year under review, the Bank gave continuity to its projects involving footprint expansion. A Branch as well as three new ATMs were added during the year. We also launched various innovative products both under Consumer and Wholesale Banking. These steps have had a positive bearing on our overall performance. During our presence in Nepal for over twenty three years, we have been able to consolidate our position by effectively blending our global capability, deep local knowledge and creativity to outperform our competitors. This ability has helped us to serve our customers well, it also makes us part of their community. Our in-depth understanding of this market, ability to quickly adapt to the changing landscape and the flair of our management to execute Banks strategy has played a crucial role in achieving a sustained growth. Against the back-drop of a rapidly changing world, we have been working very closely with our people, customers, regulators, industry and the community. This has provided us with enormous strength to successfully handle the changing business & economic environment encompassing the country.

needs to start growing. The global financial crisis made it conspicuous that the financial world is extraordinarily interconnected and interdependent to be viewed in silos. Nepal The volatile political situation coupled with low economic growth, widening trade deficit, high inflation and liquidity crunch in the banking system continued to remain the major challenges. Liquidity crunch was mainly attributed to the slow down in remittances, funds getting locked up in non productive sectors and weakening of confidence resulting in lower deposit mobilization. Owing to political conundrum, the Fiscal Budget for year 2010/11 remains pending. Nevertheless, with the objective of arresting the widening trade deficit, ensuring smooth flow of credit to productive sectors, addressing the illiquid market and boosting both employment & growth, Nepal Rastra Bank announced its annual monetary policy for 2010/11, which, inter alia, projected GDP at 5.5 percent and expects to contain inflation within 7 percent. In FY 2009/10, Nepals GDP grew by 3.5 percent at constant prices. Agriculture, manufacturing and service sectors are estimated to have grown by 1.2 percent, 3.9 percent and 6.9 percent respectively. In the eleven months of 2009/10 ending midJune, revenue mobilization of the government grew by 26.7 percent to Rs. 153.59 billion. Similarly total government expenditure increased by 29.1 percent to Rs. 188.65 billion. The high growth in recurrent as well as capital expenditure accounted for such an increase in the government expenditure. On a monthly basis, exports grew by 14.1 percent during the month of MayJune over

Economic Environment
Global Scenario We are presently living in an increasingly dynamic economic environment. Apart from being the witness of upheavals of past couple of years, the year 2010 has also experienced an isolated Greek crisis metamorphosed into a pan-euro zone crisis which resulted in the financial sector across the globe, questioning the sovereign debt fundamentals. The timely intervention & prudent approach of regulators seems to be a step in the right direction. Extraordinary liquidity provision, combined with guarantees for bank liabilities, had addressed fears about banks survival. Meanwhile, low interest rates regime has helped in reviving economies and bringing business confidence back. Debate is increasingly focused on timing of Governments withdrawing stimulus which will depend on the confidence that recovery has firmly been established. However, we think that although we are past the worst - but yet to be out of the woods. Our markets Asia, Africa and the Middle East are bouncing back, but to sustain that momentum Western World too
A Consistent Performance
The Bank has been consistently delivering good performance year on year. As a result of another good year, the Bank has contributed an amount of Rs. 466 million to the Government Exchequer as compared to Rs. 443 million last year on account of corporate tax. In accordance with the statutory requirements, the Board recommends a transfer of Rs. 21,381,278 to Exchange Fluctuation Reserve from current years profits and the statutory transfer of Rs. 217,174,339 into General Reserve Fund.

the previous month. However, compared to the corresponding period of previous year, the exports have declined by 9.8 percent to Rs. 55.37 billion. The merchandise imports, on the other hand, grew by 35.2 percent to Rs. 342.99 billion. Despite the rise in trade deficit, the Balance of Payment (BOP) improved gradually from a record high deficit of Rs. 23.53 billion in midMarch to Rs. 15.07 billion by mid-June. This is attributed to a surplus generated in the transfer account that includes grants, pension receipts and remittance. As a result, the level of gross foreign exchange reserve improved to Rs. 247.42 billion in mid-June which is sufficient for financing merchandise imports of 8.1 months and service imports of 6.8 months. The year on year (y-o-y) inflation as measured by the consumer price index moderated to 9.6 percent in mid-June 2010 compared to 12.3 percent in the corresponding period last year. In line with the appreciation of the Indian Rupees against the US dollar, the Nepalese currency vis--vis the US dollar appreciated by 4.62 percent in mid-June 2010 compared to mid-July 2009. Nepalese rupee has a fixed parity of 1:1.6 with the Indian Rupee. The exchange rate of one US dollar stood at Rs. 74.60 in mid-June 2010 compared to Rs. 78.05 in mid-July 2009.
We believe that great opportunities lie ahead as the government is committed to attain accelerated growth rate in the economy and contain inflation. Needless to mention, it will largely depend upon the political stability and the security environment. We have a firm belief that the financial services sector, in which we are a player, will continue to grow and develop into a major pillar of the Nepalese economy. The agriculture sector, which is largely dependent upon the weather conditions, is likely to experience a setback because of the late arrival of monsoon this year. However, this is likely to be mostly compensated by the ongoing expansion of cultivation area and enhancement in distribution of inputs and services in the rural areas owing to improving security situation. The industrial sector is estimated to grow at an average pace in the coming year. For the fact that the government has reiterated its commitment to increase infrastructural expenditure and improvement in the operating environment, some stability in the economy can be envisaged. The year 2011 is being celebrated as `Visit Nepal Year. This is expected to provide some momentum in the tourism related activities.
Community Partnership. The initiatives taken by these committees have added value to our stakeholders and delighted them.

Corporate Governance
Governance across the Bank is robust. As you may all appreciate, banking is a relationship business. We highly value the relationships that we have with our people, regulators, clients and the other stakeholders; all efforts will be made to further deepen this relationship.

In Conclusion
The global economy in 2010 started looking better than it did a year ago. Our markets and particularly Asia are better placed than most parts of the world to weather the risks, but they are not immune; so we cannot remain complacent. We must appreciate that the policymakers in most part of Asia have been effective in responding to the twists and turns of the crisis. Whilst the economic

uncertainties continue, we start the year with a blend of caution and confidence. Based on the data recently released by the government, economic indicators were just seen to be satisfactory during the review period. Key obstacles in resuscitating the weakening economy were seen to be the issues such as taming of inflation, creating investor-friendly environment and pushing the exports up to bridge the widening trade deficit. Despite the challenging situation, the Bank was able to record a satisfactory outcome due mainly to the commitment and focus exhibited by the management team in creating shareholders value. Our top priority is to maintain our track record of delivering superior financial performance. To do this we need to sustain the momentum in both Wholesale and Consumer Banking. We are staying focused on the basics of banking; on the way we manage liquidity, capital, risks and costs. We are deepening our relationships by getting closer to our clients. We are also expanding the product capabilities and solutions we provide to them. For both the businesses, the depth and quality of our customer relationships are critical to our strategy and success. We are cautious in expanding our risk assets portfolio and are satisfied the way we are growing in Wholesale and Consumer Banking. Under both the businesses, we have been following risk management techniques that minimize the likelihood of any surprises. Costs are well controlled. We are committed to stick to our strategy and will continue to focus on deepening our relationships with our clients. Our brand is all about commitment. We are Here for good, to create value for our

shareholders, to support and partner our clients and to make a positive contribution to the broader community. We are here for the long term. Building a sustainable business is an integral part of our long-term strategy to enhance shareholder value. Many of our employees chose to get involved in community activities, and this further underpins our standing as being amongst the most customer and community caring institutions in Nepal. Continued support and trust endowed upon us by our valuable customers, shareholders and other stakeholders has enabled us to remain the best Bank in Nepal. I sincerely appreciate their efforts to bestow us with their encouragement, trust and loyalty. SCB Nepal was the recipient of `Bank of the Year award for 2009 from the Financial Times; it is a testimony of this fact. Our intention is to make meaningful contribution in accelerating the economic activities of the country to attain a higher growth rate. We are looking at the year ahead with cautious optimism. We have to remain vigilant, prudent and focused on the sound management of our balance sheet this will remain key areas of focus. Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank have been playing key roles in driving the financial sector reforms in Nepal. We welcome and appreciate the initiatives that are aimed at strengthening the overall financial system in the country. Support and guidance received from our Regulators and the high level of governance of the Standard Chartered Group have been the cornerstones for us in consistently delivering good results, in maintaining exemplary governance standards and in providing superior products and services.
Being the only international Bank in the country with strong performance and values culture, SCB Nepal clearly edges past rest of the competition for being the `Employer of Choice. The Bank aims at retaining this coveted position. We have been placing continuous focus on staffs learning & development and in building their leadership capabilities. In an endeavor to address the diverse need of our people and to create a conducive work environment, we have been embracing work-life balance. The Diversity and Inclusion Council, which is playing a key role in taking forward our D & I agenda, continued to address the different strands of diversity including women, and the differently-abled. On behalf of SCB Nepals Board of Directors, I take this opportunity to thank all the stakeholders for their patronage. Let me take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation towards our valued customers and shareholders for standing by us in our journey. I would also like to thank all our employees for their untiring efforts and loyalty towards the organization. They were instrumental in enabling us to deliver these good results. What we achieved during this year will soon be history. There are good reasons for us to be thrilled about our past laurels but we now need to look forward and concentrate in delivering another good year. Whilst I do not underestimate the challenges and uncertainties before us, I am excited by the opportunities. We are equipped and are in a better position to deal with the emerging challenges.

The CEO & Director presents this report together with the Balance Sheet and statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended 16 July 2010. The report is in conformity with the provisions of the Companies Act 2063 and Bank & Financial Institution Act 2063 including the directives issued by the Nepal Rastra Bank.

that we remain ahead of competition and can respond to the changing dynamics of the market faster than anyone else.
Consumer Banking
Consumer Banking continues to adopt customer and segment focused approach, balancing the banking solutions with appropriate risk control measures. Product and service innovation, sales through service excellence, appropriate risk based pricing and investment for the future are the essential ingredients of our operating business model. During FY 2009/2010, the business continued to encounter numerous challenges stemming from the political conundrum and lackluster economic environment ranging from policy changes to load shedding, impacting adversely the overall operating environment. Whilst these challenges have been there for quite sometime, Liquidity crisis took the center stage decelerating the growth in deposits with further compression in margins. To remain competitive, the Bank had to raise interest rates on its Structured Call and Fixed Deposits. However, given our well managed balance sheet and Credit Deposit Ratio, the business continued to lend despite the liquidity challenges facing the market. SME, Auto, Mortgage, Personal Loans and Credit Cards showed steady growth. Auto and Mortgage loans contributed significantly to the Consumer Banking Lending Portfolio. During the period under review, the Bank opened a branch in New Road and added three more ATMs.
In line with the Consumer Banks transformation agenda, Customer Charter defining customer focus was rolled out to the entire Consumer Banking staff. The Customer Charter primarily focuses on Customers based on the following three principles:
Wholesale Banking
WB delivered another year of strong performance. What was achieved in the last one year is of significance because of the difficult operating environment, characterized by low economic growth, widening trade deficits, tight liquidity coupled with volatile political situation. Opportunities that met our lending criteria were limited. WB was extremely careful in booking new exposures. At the same time we focused on select clients by actively providing enhanced level of facilities and the more sophisticated products viz. FX options, structured deposits, cross currency swaps, supranational trade finance, etc. This enabled our clients to hedge their FX and interest rate risks and undertake business that they would not have been able to close, had such product offerings not been available to them. It would be apposite to mention that we remained open for business as usual even during the most testing situation of liquidity crisis. While it would be challenging to operate successfully in an environment which is expected to remain difficult we are confident of maintaining the upward trajectory and at the same time will ensure that all risks be it credit, market, operational, etc. are well managed. We will continue to review our strategy so
Friendly, Fast and Accurate Service Solution to our Customers financial needs Recognition of overall banking relationship with our Customers
As a testimony of our commitment towards Customer Charter, the Bank, inter alia, has launched the following:
Amulya Bachat Khata - A special Savings Scheme whereby higher interest rate up to the maximum of 6.5 percent p.a is given on the daily balances. Added two more branches under the 365 days banking service - Naya Baneshwar Branch and New Road branch (former opens on all holidays and latter closes only on Saturdays). Extended banking hours by one hour across the branch network between Sunday and Thursday and half an hour on Friday.
In order to gauge the satisfaction level of our customers and to continuously improve the way we work, regular feedback and surveys are undertaken. These feedback and surveys provide us with valuable insights about our products, services and people. This also enables us to improvise and introduce various policies, procedures, products and value added services that meet our customers needs whilst addressing the encompassing risk issues.

However, given the fluidity in the operating environment we will continue to remain cautiously optimistic in our approach. As in the past we will strike a careful balance between risk and reward for a sustainable growth.

Bancassurance is another area where we will be making significant investment for generating fee income. Lending products like Auto, Mortgage, Credit Cards and Personal Loan will continue to be offered to our target segments and improvements in the turnaround time will receive our prime attention. Similarly we will continue to accelerate our deposit drive in order to maintain a better semblance in our balance sheet. We are also committed to providing easy banking solutions to our Visually Challenged customers within the existing framework and constraints. We also intend to enhance our Online banking capabilities by adding additional features thereby obviating the need for customers to visit the bank for their basic banking requirements.

Inward remittances, an importance source of foreign currency earning, will continue to play a key role in the expansion of our consumer base. On the WB side, we will continue to offer total solutions to our clientele with new products and seamless services. Our endeavor will be to further deepen our relationships

and achieve core banking status for all the corporate customers. Nepal holds a huge potential to become a popular tourist destination. The year 2011, which is being celebrated as `Visit Nepal Year, is expected to provide momentum to the tourism related activities. The steady economic growth of the two neighboring countries i.e. India and China is likely to offer opportunities for Nepal to act as a trade corridor. Suitable policy decisions to capitalize on these opportunities will help our agenda of achieving higher business growth. We will closely follow the opportunities for investment in infrastructural areas viz. hydropower, agriculture and other service sector industries. In line with our revised brand promise, `Here for good we have full commitment to investing in our people, processes and systems with a view to improve the quality of our service for delighting our customers.

global financial crisis, its lagging effects were seen in the last FY in terms of deceleration in workers remittance, a key component in Nepals GDP, and decline in exports. During the past FY, Nepalese Economy witnessed low economic growth, widening trade deficit and liquidity shortage in the banking system. The continued security concerns and political uncertainty, double-digit inflation, growing energy crisis and nation-wide long strikes were some other key factors that affected the countrys credit environment. Decline in foreign exchange reserves, slowdown in deposit mobilization and reportedly aggressive flow of credit to unproductive sectors led to liquidity crisis, affecting the productive sectors in terms of inadequate credit support and high cost of borrowing. Against the backdrop of a difficult political and economic environment, the Bank has been able to maintain its credit quality owing to its proactive risk management approach. The Bank continues to stick to the fundamentals of good banking. Clear strategy and discipline, strong relationship with the clients, rigors around the quality and debate on risk-return dynamics, etc are the few key elements that contributed to the success in the risk management. We are well disciplined in our liquidity management which is corroborated by our conservative C/D ratio and high capital adequacy.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss to the Company by failing to discharge an obligation. Credit exposure includes individual borrowers and connected groups of counterparties and portfolios, in the banking and trading books. Standards are approved by the Board and the delegation of credit authorities are overseen by the CEO. Procedures for managing credit risk are determined at the business level with specific policies and procedures being adapted to different risk environment and business goals. Business risk officers are in place to maximize the efficiency on decision making. The Credit Risk is managed by Risk Management Committee, chaired by the CEO. This Committee, inter alia, reviews and monitors the Banks Assets Portfolio.
Operational Risk
Operational Risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss due to an event or action resulting from the failure of internal processes, people and systems, or from external events. To ensure that the key operational risks are managed in a timely and effective manner, a framework of policies, procedures and tools has been established within the Bank to identify, assess, monitor, control and report such risks. A robust Operational Risk Management and Assurance Framework (ORMAF) has been established as per SCB Group guidelines to supervise and manage the operational risk in the Bank.

Banks existing operational risk management system has been further strengthened by creating a new role titled Country Operational Risk Officer with responsibility to ensure end to end operational risk management across businesses and functions in the country and to drive the governance process.
Risk Governance
Through its risk management framework the Bank seeks to efficiently manage credit, market and liquidity risks which arise directly through the Banks commercial activities as well as operational, regulatory and reputational risks which arise as a normal consequence of any business undertaking. As part of this framework, the Bank uses a set of principles that describe its risk management culture. The principles of risk management followed include: Balancing risk and reward. Disciplined and focused risk taking to generate a return. Taking risk with appropriate authorities and where there is appropriate infrastructure and resource to manage them. Anticipating future risks and ensuring awareness of all risks. Efficient and effective risk management and control to gain competitive advantage. Ultimate responsibility of the effective management of risks rests with the Board. The Audit Committee, within an authority delegated by the Board, reviews risk areas and monitors the activities of Management Committee (Manco), Country Operational Risk Group (CORG), Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO), and Risk Management Committee (RMC). The committee governance structure seeks to ensure that risk management standards and policies are cascaded down through the organization from the Board to business and
Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure created by potential changes/volatility in market prices and rates. The Bank is exposed to market risk arising principally from customer driven transactions. The objective of the Banks market risk policies and processes is to obtain the best balance of risk and return while meeting our customers requirements. Market risk is managed by Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) which agrees policies and levels of risk appetite.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Bank either does not have sufficient financial resources available to meet all its obligations and commitments as they fall due, or can access them only at excessive costs. It is the policy of the Bank to maintain adequate liquidity at all times and for all relevant currencies, and hence, to be in a position to meet all obligations as they fall due. The liquidity risk is managed both on a short term and a medium terms basis. In the short term, the focus is on ensuring that the cash flow demands can be met through asset maturities supported by customer deposits and wholesale borrowings where required. The Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) under the chairmanship of CEO
Regulatory Risk

Reputational Risk
Reputational Risk is the risk of failure to meet the standards of performance or behaviors, expected by stakeholders in the way in which business is conducted. It is the Bank policy that, at all times, the protection of the Banks reputation should take priority over all other activities, including revenue generation. Reputational risk is not a primary risk, but may arise from the failure to effectively mitigate one or more of credit, liquidity, market, legal and regulatory and operational risks. It also arises from the failure to comply with social, environmental and ethical standards. A Reputational Risk Committee within the Bank has been established which meets at regular intervals to review and monitor this risk.

Capital Management
The Banks capital management approach is driven by its desire to maintain a strong capital base to support the development of its business and to meet the regulatory capital requirements at all times. As Capital is the centerpiece of the Banks performance matrix, a sound capital management forms the very core of the overall performance landscape to ensure that the Bank delivers on its objective of maximizing the shareholders value. The senior management of the company is engaged and responsible for prudent capital management at all times. In compliance with the regulatory requirement of increasing the capital base as prescribed by the Central Bank, the Bank has a capital plan in place. The Bank is comfortable in meeting the minimum capital requirements and is very strongly positioned to meet the performance benchmarks as outlined in the plan. The capital plan takes the following into account: Regulatory Capital requirements Increase in the capital required due to projected business growth, market uncertainties and stresses.

Furthermore, the retention of talent and staff engagement in such a competitive market is also attracting much attention from the management. The major external problems pertain to the unstable socio-political situation of the country and the deteriorating risk environment. The frequent strikes are a huge impediment to the smooth functioning of the economy as a whole. Alongside the repercussion of the fluid local business milieu, the contagion of the global financial crisis is also impacting the overall financial environment. Your bank is well placed to monitor and proactively deal with the challenges posed by internal as well as external factors. We intend to continue being the pioneer in introducing new products and services to better serve the market and deal with the competition.

Auditor's responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Nepal Standards on Auditing. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depended on our professional judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we considered the internal control relevant to the Bank's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that were appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Bank's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Opinion
On the basis of our examination, we would like to report that: I. We have obtained all the information and explanations, which were considered necessary for the purpose for our audit. Ii. In our opinion proper books of accounts as required by the law have been kept by the Bank. III. The Bank has accounted Interest Income from Loans & Advances on cash basis as per Nepal Rastra Bank's Directives which is not in line with Nepal Accounting Standard 7- Revenue Recognition that prescribes accrual basis of accounting. iv. The Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account, Cash Flow Statement and attached Schedules dealt with by this report are prepared as per Directives of Nepal Rastra Bank and are in agreement with the books of account maintained by the Bank. v. During our examination of the books of account of the Bank, we have not come across the cases where the Board of Directors or any member thereof or any representative or any office holder or any employee of the Bank has acted contrary to the provisions of law or caused loss or damage to the Bank. vi. The returns received from branches of the Bank were adequate for the purpose of our audit. vii. In our opinion, so far as appeared from our examination of the book, the Bank has maintained adequate capital funds and adequate provisions for possible impairment of assets in accordance with the directives of Nepal Rastra Bank; viii. The Bank has written-off loans as per the policy approved by Nepal Rastra Bank ix. The Bank has been functioning as per the directives of Nepal Rastra Bank. x. The Bank has not acted in a manner to jeopardise the interest and security of the depositors and shareholders xi. The operations of the Bank were within its jurisdiction, and xii. We have not come across any fraudulence in the accounts. In our opinion, except for matter referred to in para 4(iii) above, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view, in all material respects the financial position of Standard Chartered Bank Nepal Limited as at Ashad 32, 2067 (16 July, 2010) and of the results of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Nepal Accounting Standards and comply with Company Act 2063, Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 2063 and Directives of Nepal Rastra Bank.

83
risk management tools for managing operational risk. The Operational Risk Management and Assurance Framework (ORMAF) defines how risks are managed, how Operational Risk policies and controls are assured, how effective governance is exercised as well as the key roles required to manage the underlying processes. The governance structure of OR is as follows: Operational Risk governance ensures consistent oversight across all levels regarding the execution and effectiveness of ORMAF. Operational risks are identified and graded at the unit level. Mitigating controls are put in place and mitigation progress is monitored. These risks are reported to the Business Operational Risk Group (BORG). BORG (as a committee) assign ownership, require actions to be taken and monitor progress of risks identified, in addition to confirming the risk grading provided at the unit level. Risks categorized as High or Medium are reported to the Country Operational Risk Group (CORG) and escalated to Business Operational Risk Committees (ORCs) at the Regional level. CORG determines final risk grading and ensures appropriateness of risk ownership, required actions and progress to date. Risks graded high, are escalated to Group Operational Risk Committee (GORC) through Group Operational Risk Assurance (GORA) team. The Business / Function Operational Risk Committees (ORCs) at Regional level oversee operational risks within businesses and functions across the Region. The GORC oversees operational risks at Group level with the support of the GORA team. The team assesses risks escalated by CORGs and Business / Function ORCs
prescribed by NRB, the bank focuses on exchange risk management for managing/ computing the capital charge on market risk. In addition the interest rate risk, liquidity risk and equity risk are assessed at a regular interval to strengthen market risk management. The market risk is managed within the tolerance limit set by the Board.
Other risks
reputational damage, ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations and enhance resilience to external events. The effectiveness of the Companys internal control system is reviewed regularly by the Board, its committees, Management and Internal Audit. The Audit Committee has reviewed the effectiveness of the internal control system during the FY 2066/67 and reported on its review to the Board. The Internal Audit monitors compliance with policies and standards and the effectiveness of internal control structures across the Company through its program of business/ unit audits. The Internal Audit function is focused on the areas of greatest risk as determined by a risk-based assessment methodology. Internal Audit reports regularly to the Audit Committee. The findings of all adverse audits are reported to the Chief Executive Officer and Business Heads for immediate corrective actions.
h. Summary of the terms, conditions and main features of all capital instruments, especially in case of subordinated term debts including hybrid capital instruments.
In addition to the credit, operational and market risk, the bank identifies, assesses and monitors strategic and reputational risks at a regular interval. While strategic risk is managed by the CEO, the Reputational Risk Committee is responsible for the management of reputational risk.
Monitoring and Reporting
All risks, including credit, operational and market risks are identified, escalated, monitored and mitigated to the satisfaction of the risk type owner. The risk type owner is responsible for ensuring that risks are adequately identified, escalated monitored and mitigated. The bank has adequate system for monitoring and reporting risk exposures and assessing how the changing risk profile affects the need for capital. The Credit Risk Committee reviews and assesses the credit risk and provides a report to the Management Committee. Similarly, the CORG provides Country Operational Risk profile and the Reputational Risk Committee provides the Reputational Risk profile to the Management Committee.

There are risk officers for both Consumer Banking and Wholesale Banking businesses. They have their primary reporting line into the group functional level and CEO Nepal. Credit approval authorities are delegated by Risk Committee to individual risk officer in WB and CB. We have a manual approval process in CB (other than SME) and on-line approval process in WB and SME, CB. The scope and nature of risk reporting and/ or measurement procedures are covered in the Country Portfolio Standards approved by the board, PDD and credit operating manual and other group level policies & procedures adopted after the board approval. The Risk Management Committee chaired by the CEO, reviews the portfolio exposure, portfolio quality, country level risk triggers, etc at least on a quarterly basis. Country Portfolio standards and PDD / credit operating manual outlines the Banks policies and processes for hedging and/or mitigating and monitoring risk. Collaterals which are eligible for risk mitigation and valuation of the same are reviewed every year, Portfolio Standards also prescribe the frequency of valuation for different collateral types. Collateral held against impaired loans is maintained at fair value. The Risk Committee which formed by and received authority from the Management Committee is responsible for ensuring the effective risk governance and management of credit, market and operational risk throughout the bank.

Credit Risk Management strategies include effectively managing the risk of financial loss arising out of booking an exposure on counterparty and also ensuring independence of the Credit Risk Management function from the origination and sales function. Credit risk under both Consumer Banking and Wholesale Banking is managed through a defined framework which sets out policies and procedures covering the measurement and management of credit risk. There is a clear segregation of duties between transaction originators in the businesses and the approvers in the risk functions. All credit exposure limits are approved within a defined credit approval authority framework. A standard alphanumeric credit risk grade system is used for quantifying the risk associated with the counterparty for corporate and institutional clients (including SME). The grading is based on a probability of default methodology, with customers analyzed against a range of quantitative and qualitative measures. In addition to nominal aggregate exposure, Loss Given Default is used in the delegation of credit approval authority and must be calculated for every transaction to determine the appropriate level of approval. Significant exposures beyond the authority of Credit Officers in both WB and CB are approved by CEO on behalf of Risk Committee after support from the respective credit risk function at the group level. The SCB Nepal Board delegates its authority to approve credit, market and other risks exposures (Risk Authorities) to the Management Committee for onward delegation of these Risk Authorities to the Risk Committee. Credit function in consumer banking uses standard application forms which are processed in central units and credit approval process is guided by product development document (PDD) and credit operating manual. The probability of default is calculated using portfolio delinquency flow rates and judgement, where applicable.
