Capital adequacy planning links an NBFC’s capital position with portfolio growth, risk exposures and stress scenarios.
Understanding NBFC Capital Adequacy Planning
When to consider this service
Promoters, regulated businesses and compliance leaders assessing an activity-specific regulatory requirement can use this service to clarify a particular issue. A useful starting question is: “Why assess capital under both growth and stress scenarios?” Begin with the facts behind that question rather than assuming that a standard package will resolve it.
Scope of work
The engagement can cover the following workstreams. The proposal specifies which apply to your matter and what evidence or specialist input is needed.
- Review capital components and risk exposures.
- Model growth and adverse-scenario effects.
- Plan capital monitoring and management actions.
Documents and information to prepare
Start with the records below where available. They help establish the facts before a more specific checklist is agreed.
- Capital schedules.
- Regulatory returns.
- Portfolio data.
- Business forecasts.
Provide the relevant entity, transaction or reporting period and any existing notice or deadline. Identify missing or inconsistent records so they can be addressed explicitly.
A key issue to resolve
Meeting a ratio at one date does not establish future adequacy; planned growth and losses can change the position.
How the engagement works
- Define the question: review capital components and risk exposures, using the available capital schedules and the facts you provide.
- Examine the evidence: model growth and adverse-scenario effects. Record unresolved information and the assumptions that affect the analysis.
- Agree the action: plan capital monitoring and management actions. Set the required deliverables, responsible owners and any follow-up or external dependency.
Deliverables, fees and timing
The proposal for NBFC Capital Adequacy Planning sets out the analysis, documentation or coordination deliverables and the work you retain. The availability of capital schedules, regulatory returns, portfolio data and business forecasts affects readiness and the amount of follow-up needed. Fees and the working schedule are agreed after that initial assessment. Any required independent report, legal representation or authority application is identified as a separate responsibility where relevant.
