Lending is the backbone of banking
activities, it generally provides the larger part of a banks profits. Thus bank
have lending policies to establish the direction ad use of funds from stock
holders, depositions and creditors to control the composition and size of the
loan part folio, an to determine the general circumstance under which it is
appropriate to make an advance. The most important purpose of an empiricist
lending policy is to provide guidance for the lending officers and thereby
establish prudence for the lending officer in credit appraisal so that the
risk/reward ratio will be satisfactory and danger of default minimized.

of credit appraisal security accepted as collateral within the controvert
imposed by other environment variables.
