2. Literature Review

Credit Management Practices:

Effective credit management involves assessing creditworthiness, monitoring loans, and
managing risks. It includes quantitative models and qualitative assessments to predict borrower
default (Altman & Saunders, 1998).

Credit Risk Assessment:

Models such as credit scoring and financial ratios aid in assessing credit risk. Combining
quantitative models with qualitative factors improves accuracy (Arunkumar & Kotreshwar,
2006).

Credit Monitoring:
Regular monitoring of credit exposures helps in early detection of financial distress among
borrowers (Basel Committee, 2001). Detailed monitoring reduces non-performing loans (Rajan
& Dhal, 2003).

Loan Recovery Strategies:

Effective strategies include legal action, loan restructuring, and settlement negotiations
(Choudhry, 2011). Restructuring loans can improve recovery rates (Espinoza & Prasad, 2010).

Technological Integration:
Fintech solutions like machine learning and big data analytics enhance credit risk models and
streamline processes (Frost, 2020). Advanced technology improves data analysis and risk
management (Bohn & Stein, 2009).

3. Research Methodology

Data Collection Methods:

 Primary: Interviews, surveys, case studies.

 Secondary: Annual reports, academic literature, regulatory documents.

Sampling Method:
