principle credit management concern. Credit management is the process of controlling and
collecting payments from customers. This is the function within a bank or company to control
credit policies that will improve revenues and reduce financial risks. A credit manager is a
person employed by an organization to manage the credit department and make decisions
concerning credit limits, acceptable levels of risk and terms of payment to their customers
(Edwards, 1990).
The credit managers are responsible for Controlling bad debt exposure and expenses, through the
direct management of credit terms on the company’s ledgers. Assessment of credit standing of
both new and existing customer.
Monitoring and control of customer balance. The finance that made available to borrowers or
customers in this manner is required to be collected by bank after a specific period of time. In
order to make effective collection, however, the bank is expected to establish efficient credit
management. It is worth mentioning that the credit management system that is designed in
adequately and applied improperly is one of the
possible cases which may expose bank to credit risk where the borrower might fail to pay the
loan on due date. The effective management of credit is critical component of a comprehensive
approach to loan term success of any banking organization. Currently, the Dashen bank offers
the following credit products: short term loan, medium term loan, long term loan, merchandise
loan and agricultural loan.
The beneficiaries of the bank credit facility are business people who are engaged in domestic and
foreign trade. In order to get loan these customers are expected to satisfy certain criteria which
are set by the bank. Also borrowers are obliged to provide the bank with accurate information
about their business. Finally the loan contract will be signed between the customer and the bank
as to release the required loan amount. A nonperforming loan is a loan is default or close to
being in default. Many loans become nonperforming loan after being in default for three months,
but this can depend on the contract ( According to IMF).a loan is nonperforming when payment
of interest and principal past due 90 days or more, or at least 90 days of interest payments have
been capitalized, refinanced or delayed by agreement of payments are less than 90 days overdue,
but there are other good reasons to doubt that payments will be made in full.

Thus, in their day to day activities banks are under exposure to various types of banking risks
among which credit risk is this most imports one. Nonperforming loan can be considered as ones
of the major source of credit risk, where a borrower will fail, to meet his/her obligation in
accordance with agreed terms. The practice of credit management of the Dashen Bank of
Ethiopia assessed in particular from the point of view of the nonperforming loan which is a
potential credit risk area of the bank.

releasing of the credit oriented to costumer and to review different types of credit management of
