 3.3 Disclosures on risk exposure in derivatives
 
 Qualitative Disclosures
 
 i) The Structure and organization for management of risk in derivatives
 trading:
 
 The organization structure consists of Investment Wing at the Corporate
 level which report to the Executive Directors and Chairman & Managing
 Director and ultimately to the Board. Risk Management Department is
 informed of the transactions as and when they take place.
 
 ii) The scope and nature of risk measurement, risk reporting and risk
 monitoring systems:
 
 a) The Interest Rate Swap (IRS) transactions undertaken by the Bank are
 for hedging and trading purposes. Derivative as a product is also
 offered to the customer as per RBI norms. Such transactions are
 undertaken as per policies of the bank formulated based on RBI
 guidelines.
 
 b)The risk is measured in the interest rate derivative transactions
 depending on the movement of benchmark interest rates for the remaining
 life of the interest rate swap contracts. All interest rate derivative
 transactions are included for the purpose of risk measurement. The risk
 is evaluated and reports are placed to the CMD/ED daily and Board
 periodically. Risk is monitored based on the mark to market position of
 the interest rate derivative transactions.
 
 (iii) Policies for hedging and /or mitigating risk and strategies and
 processes for monitoring the continuing effectiveness of hedges/
 mitigants:
 
 IRS is undertaken on the actual interest bearing underlying assets or
 liabilities. The notional principal amount and maturity of the hedge
 does not exceed the value and maturity of underlying asset/liability.
 The risk is monitored on the mark to market basis of the outstanding
 interest rate swap contracts and accordingly the effectiveness of the
 hedge is determined.
 
 Collateral required upon entering into IRS is Nil. Notional principal
 amount of IRS multiplied by the relevant conversion factor and the
 respective risk weight of the counter party has been taken into account
 for determining the capital requirements.

 interest rate swaps on underlying assets and liabilities. The loss of
 income on the above IRS will be Rs. 10.51 Crore (Rs. 97.68 Crore), in
 case counter-parties fail to fulfill their obligations. There is no
 concentration of credit risk arising from IRS transactions undertaken
 as the counter-parties are banks and the exposure is within the
 exposure limit permitted.

 of the Banking regulation Act, 1949

 over the liability that could have been recognised as per the Pre
 Revised AS-15 as on 31.03.2007 as an expense over 5 years from
 financial year 2007-08. Accordingly, Rs. 88.68 crores (Rs. 88.68

 of the increase in transitional liability. The un-amortised portion of
 the increase in transitional liability on account of Revised AS-15 is

 crore) has been charged to the Profit and Loss Account. In terms of the
 requirements of the aforesaid RBI circular, the balance amount carried
 forward, i.e., Rs. 640.28 crore (Rs. 800.35 crore – Rs.160.07 crore)
