a world of opportunities for MSMEs. new players have entered the market
space and B2B & B2C space is growing in demand.

(i) e-commerce

Your Bank has developed a specialized offering for startups active in
the e-commerce space. A pioneering innovative product e-Smart SME for
financing merchants selling through e-commerce platforms has been
designed. Tie-ups with leading e-Commerce companies, Snapdeal and
Flipkart, have been established this year. This innovative product
moves away from traditional balance sheet based lending to a cash fow

model based on platform and surrogate data to assess eligibility. The
entire process has been automated – 'at the click of a button' – from
online application, uploading of documents, processing and sanction,
all in less than a minute - first time ever in the history of banks in

Snapdeal on 15th January 2016.

majors.

The product suite now offers financing solutions for the franchisee's
initial capex investment, working capital and transaction related
needs. Your Bank is tying up with large, reputed franchisors to extend
this proposition to their new and existing franchisees. These loans
will be risk mitigated through franchisor affiliation, comfort and
repayment facilitation. Continuous sharing of data by franchisor will
enable economic assessment of business model and identification of early
warning signals for stressed franchisees.

STRESSED ASSETS MANAGEMENT

Management of Non Performing Assets (nPAs) is one of the biggest
challenges facing the Banking sector today. Increasing NPAs adversely
impacts the bottom line of banks. Banks cannot book income on such
assets and they have to make provisions as per IRAC norms of RBI.

Rising nPA levels and fresh slippages across sectors can be attributed
to the following factors:

- Reduced market confidence due to the slowdown in the global economy;
the negative spill over's from global financial markets; and the less
than adequate pick up in domestic growth and declining exports.

- Stalling of projects due to infrastructure bottlenecks, delays in
obtaining Govt. approvals, problems in land acquisition and supply side
constraints.

- Cancellation of coal blocks and the limited off-take of power by
Discoms (Power distribution Companies) given their reducing purchasing
capacity.

- Labour laws constraints and the Stress in important sectors such as
Textiles, Power, Sugar, Steel and Aviation.

- Delay in realization of receivables due to subdued demand.

- Delay in the resolution of NPAs through legal proceedings.

Consequent upon the Asset Quality Review (AQR) exercise conducted by
RBI, profits of your Bank reduced considerably on account of higher
provisioning. With the economic recovery prospects appearing weak in
the short term, the stress faced by the Banking sector is likely to
continue for a few more quarters.

the NPA resolution effort of your Bank. As on March 2016, SAMG has 19
Stressed Assets Management Branches (SAMBs) and 44 Stressed Assets
Recovery Branches (SARBs) across the country. Besides initiating hard
recovery measures, SAMG introduced certain innovative methods and thus
gave first mover advantage to your Bank in areas like arranging Mega
e-Auction of large number of properties on Pan-India basis, initiation
of criminal actions, identification of un-encumbered properties of the
borrowers / guarantors and arranging for attachment of properties
before judgment. The loan resolution week (lRW), a nationwide Bank
Adalat was conducted over a period of one week in May 2015 and all over
nPA borrowers were advised in writing well in advance to come for
negotiated settlement. Besides giving wide publicity through
nationwide advertisem*nt through print and social media, the event was
internally monitored by setting-up war rooms at administrative offices.

Despite making concerted efforts to expedite recovery and reducing
NPAs, your Bank often faces impediments in the form of legal hurdles,
unavailability of strategic investors, lack of buyers for properties
put up for auction, among others. For the various constraints, your
Bank has approached the concerned authorities at appropriate levels and
relevant forums like Gyan Sangam, IBA, among others. despite these
constraints, all actions initiated for resolution are constantly
followed up and strategies are periodically reviewed for expeditious
resolution of nPAs.

Your Bank has an evolving and robust risk management model of proven
effectiveness, aligned with regulatory standards and international best
practices, and proportional to the scale and complexity of its
activities. Your Bank is exposed to various risks that are an inherent
part of any banking business. The major risks are credit risk, market
risk, liquidity risk and operational risk which includes IT risk. Your
Bank has policies and procedures in place to measure, assess, monitor
and manage these risks systematically across all its portfolios. Your
Bank is amongst the leaders to undertake implementation of the Advanced
Approaches under Credit, Market and Operational risk. Your Bank has
also undertaken the Enterprise and Group Risk Management Projects which
aim to adopt global best practices. The projects are being implemented
with support from external consultants.

RBI Guidelines on Basel III Capital Regulations have been implemented
and your Bank is adequately capitalised as per the current requirements
under Basel III. An independent Risk Governance Structure, in line with
international best practices, has been put in place, in the context of
separation of duties and ensuring independence of Risk Measurement,
Monitoring and Control functions. This framework visualises empowerment
of Business Units at the operating level, with technology being the key
driver, enabling identifcation and management of risk at the place of
origination.

The various risks across Bank and the SBI Group are monitored and
reviewed through the Executive level committees and the Risk Management
Committee of the Board (RMCB) which meets regularly. Risk Management
Committees at Operational unit and Business unit level are also in
place.

Rs, An independent, second look is being given on all the sanctions
through an Early Sanction Review for all loans having exposure between
Rs.1.00 crore. and Rs.5 crore., and through the loan Review Mechanism
(lRM) for loans above Rs.5 crore.

Rs, In order to focus on capital conservation and maximization of
return on capital, your Bank has introduced Risk Based Budgeting (RBB).
Reduction in risk and return on Capital is measured based on Return on
Credit Risk Capital (RoCrC). Achievement of the budgeted advances
levels will be subject to achievements under the specified levers. Risk
Adjusted Return on Capital (RAROC) framework has been implemented from
FY2016. Customer level RAROC calculation has also been
digitized. Behavioral models for monitoring and scoring the retail
borrower performance have been developed and hosted on Credit Risk data
Mart.

5. vigilance mechanism

At SBI, there are three aspects to the vigilance function – Preventive,
Punitive and Participative. In line with this year's theme Preventive
Vigilance as a tool of Good Governance and having observed Vigilance
Awareness Week from the 26th to 31st October, 2015, Preventive
Vigilance is being given more importance as it inculcates a sense of
honesty and integrity among its employees and reinforce internal
Systems and Procedures to control malady activities. In this
connection, Preventive Vigilance Committee meetings are being held at
the branches and at regular quarterly intervals.

The concept of Whistleblower is another effective tool for Preventive
Vigilance. There is a well-defned Whistle Blower policy in our Bank,
which acts as a deterrent for employees that may be prone to carrying
out malicious activities. The Whistleblower is generally an insider,
who has near full knowledge of the misdeeds of fellow worker or higher
official, can provide evidence against the delinquent employees. We keep
the secrecy of the whistleblower and give protection to them so that
they continued proving an effective tool against wrongdoings without
fear.

Where certain lapses of grave nature are observed, such branches are
earmarked for Suo-motu investigations so that possible fraudulent
activities are checked and remedial measures taken. during the
FY2015-16, a total of 1459 cases (993 new cases) were taken up for
examination, out of which 1049 cases have since been concluded.

Supporting Healthcare: Health and hygiene are critical elements to
enhance the quality of life. Healthcare in India is a neglected area.
It is still inaccessible to many sections of the society, especially
the most vulnerable and depressed section of the society. Lack of
affordability, unavailability and lack of awareness are the major
reasons for a low healthcare index in India.

infrastructure to ameliorate the conditions of the common man. To
deliver quality healthcare to those belonging to underprivileged and
economically weaker sections of the society, your Bank has supported
large number of hospitals.
