Credit risk management is a very important area for for the banking sector and there are wide prospects of growth and other financial institutions also face problems which are financial in nature.

Also, banking professionals have to maintain a balance between the risks and the returns.For a large customer base banks need to have a variety of loan products.If bank lowers the interest rates for the loans it offers, it will suffer

In terms of equity, a bank must have substantial amount of capital on its reserve, but not too much that it misses the investment revenue, and not too little that it leads itself to financial instability and to the risk of regulatory non-compliance.

Credit risk management is risk assessment that comes in an investment. Risk often comes in investing and in the allocation of capital. The risks must be assessed so as to derive a sound investment decision.And decisions should be made by balancing the risks and returns.

Giving loans is a risky affair for bank sometimes and Certain risks may also come when banks offer securities and other forms of investments.

The risk of losses that result in the default of payment of the debtors is a kind of risk that must be expected.A bank to keep substantial amount of capital to protect its solvency and to maintain its economic stability.

The greater the bank is exposed to risks, the greater the amount of capital must be when it comes to its reserves, so as to maintain its solvency and stability.

Credit risk management must play its role then to help banks be in compliance with Basel II Accord and other regulatory bodies.

For assessing the risk, banks should plan certain estimates, conduct monitoring, and perform reviews of the performance of the bank. They should also do Loan reviews and portfolio analysis in order to determine risk involved.

Banks must be active in managing the risks in various securities and derivatives. Still progress has to be made for analyzing the credits and determining the probability of defaults and risks of losses.

So credit risk management becomes a very important tool for the survival of banks.

well, banking is all about financil risk and rewards, the banks need of have various products for their customers for various financial needs. as far as loans are considered, u are right, banks need to have a number of products, the interest rates still can be competative if the initial screening as far as the risk is considered in not comprised upon. Presently the bank teams, in an effort to get numbers, sometimes necessarity not take sufficient detailed informations which may effect the risk , and hence they land in bad loan. Keep good risk checks , and still competative interests can be worked out.

Banks must adopt a more objective method of pre sanction credit assessment, rather than the existing system of pure financial analysis and security cover, bench mark ratios etc.As is seen in many cases, a debt becomes unrealisable on account of many para financial factors, rather than pure financial performance. Even BASAL II does not fully address this issue. 
Good one...but how can we get to know about investment into bank and investment by bank?, it is stated over there in balance sheet but that not gives clear picture of timing of loan and investment.

Thanks for sharing sir , 
Effective credit risk management is vital for success of any bank, as banks are  operating at a low margin compared to other business. They  Should strike a proper balance between profitability and liquidity and should always be careful about default probability and Credit Value at risk. Especially here in India, attaching is not an easy process.
