Tips to crack jaiib caib

5 TIPS TO CRACK JAIIB-CAIIB IN 1st ATTEMPT.

If you've just joined the Banking Industry, you must have applied for JAIIB/CAIIB or If not, you'll be applying room & 1 thing everyone wants to know is how to pass JAIIB/CAIIB is get an extra increment. So sooner you pass the Exam, earlier you get an extra increment. If you've as Officer JMGS-I (PO), your initial basic salary would be ₹.23700. If You Clear JAIIB/CAIIB, you get 2 increments & your basic salary increase by ₹.1940. So if you miss it 1st time, your Increment gets delayed by 6months. That means loss of ₹.11640+DA. So it becomes important to clear JAIIB/CAIIB Exam in 1st attempt itself.
Around JAIIB 1.50lacs & CAIIB 1lac candidates appear for the Exam. Only 22-25% candidates are able to clear the exam each time. So does it mean that JAIIB/CAIIB is difficult to crack? What should be the Strategy to clear the Exam in 1st Attempt? How 1 should prepare for Exam?
Passing marks for JAIIB are 50% aggregate & 45% in each Subject. If aggregate marks less than 50% or Marks in a particular paper less than 45%, but you score 50%/more in any other 2 sub. You don't qualify the exam but need not give that particular paper in 2nd,3rd,4th attempt, in which you score 50%/more. The best part of Exam is that result of each paper is shown to you immediately after submit your online Exam.

Simple 5 Steps to Prepare for the JAIIB/CAIIB Exam:
Take off the burden from your mind, you're required to score only 50% which's not very difficult & the Good thing is that there's No NEGATIVE (-) Marking.
Here is a simple step by step guide which will help the Bankers to be prepared for JAIIB/CAIIB.
If you come from Commerce/Finance background  (BBA/MBA), It's relatively easy to break the JAIIB/CAIIB. Because you would have studied atleast 65% of topics covered. If you're not from Commerce/Finance backgroue you need to make little Extra Efforts.
1. GET THE RIGHT BOOKS: After reg. for JAIIB/CAIIB, 1st thing you should do is to get the Books for all 3 Subjects. Best books available for JAIIB/CAIIB are by McMillan, which IIBF also suggest. these Books are available on Amazon:
-JAIIB (PPB-AFB-LRAB)
-CAIIB (ABM-BFM-OPTIONAL SUB).
These Books might seem bulky but has covered the entire syllabus & has everything you need to know. The Book is designed in a way that 1can easily be prepared by just reading the definition & summary. the MCQs will give you a fair Idea of level of preparations.
If you don't have enough time & don't want to study IIBF Books, you can by the Books JAIIB/CAIIB by N.S.Toor, which are in QA format.
2. KNOW YOUR SYLLABUS: As a Banker it's likely that there will not be a lot of time left for studies after a hectic day of work. Hence it's best to start early. the Idea is to plan for the Syllabus & Time them so that the Level of Preparedness is High. Knowing your syllabus will give Idea, how much time need to prepare.
If you've been a Commerce student, you'll find the AFB & some part of LRAB, you've already covered during your studies earlier. So 60% of your Job is already done. You can mark these topics & focus on those topics which you've not studied earlier.
If You've been Arts/Science & Engg Student, everything is New for you & need to prepare for everything..

3. MAKE A STRATEGY FOR STUDYING: ( I've already posted about JAIIB-CAIIB Study Strategy & Study Plan a Month Ago, You must keep follow them out of action).

4. PRACTICE & ATTEMPT SOME MOCK TESTS: Another great step is to find out previous 3years Question Papers. Prepare them all leaving 1 which will work as a model test before you actually face the Exam. the Idea is to practice a lot of question type compared to cramming. You can attempt in JAIIB-CAIIB Forum, Blogs website 'Free Mock Tests for JAIIB-CAIIB', which will give you an Idea how the actual exam is held. attempting Mock Test help you practice the actual Exam conditions.
5. ON THE ACTUAL TEST DAY: Choose the easy questions 1st as they will give you an estimate of the Score. then come back to the Questions which were missed. Also, there's No NEGATIVE (-) Marking, so attempt all Questions. If you stuck in a question, leave that by Marking & Go ahead..

ALL THE VERY BEST.
WISH YOU GOOD LUCK...

Normal transit time

Normal transit time:: CAIIB BFM

NTP means avg period normally involved from the DATE OF NEGETIOATION/PURCHASE/DICOUNT TILL THE RECEIPT OF BILL PROCESSDS in the NOSTRO account of bank concerned.

it is not to be confused with the time taken for the arrival of goods at overseas destination.

BFM

BFM 

The strategy for the study of Bank Financial Management which many people finds difficult to clear. If you study properly, it is easy to clear the BFM. This subject also contains 4 modules, they are;
-International Banking
-Risk Management
-Treasury Management
-Balance Sheet Management
Many people do not correlate the syllabus of the subject with day to day banking activity. So they find it difficult to score and understand this subject. But this not true, this subject is very much important which will increase your knowledge regarding top management & middle management functioning of your bank as well as banking as a whole industry.
All the modules are equally important, but you may clear the paper with three modules study also. Module A & B are relatively easy and scoring as well. Let us discuss strategy for each module.
Module A-International Banking
Important topics are Exchange Rates and Forex Business, Basics for Forex Derivatives, Documentary LC, and Facilities for Exporters & Importers
Rapid reading or bullet point reading is quite useful for this module. Practice numerical again and again.
Many numerical/case studies are asked from this module which are quite easy as compared to Module B & Module D case studies. Refer the case studies from McMillan given at the end of the topic. Also N.S.Toor book has many numerical and case studies. Questions are asked on Exchange rates, Shipment Finance etc.
Module B-Risk Management
All chapters are equally important as they are interlinked to each other. Again focus more on case studies/numericals given in Apendix at the end of chapter. Maximum case studies are asked from this module. Though short notes are useful for this module I would suggest McMillan reading for this module because some questions are twisted type for which you require details of the concept which is hard to get from short notes. RBI website contains FAQs which are quite useful for this modules, you should read them at least once.
Module C- Treasury Management
Important topics are Introduction, Types of treasury products, Treasury Risk Management, Treasury and Asset-Liability Management.
Mostly questions asked on this module are theoretical type, so through reading of McMillan is important. If you don’t get time then you can skip this module or read short notes since the weighted of this module for exam point of view is low according to me as compared to Module A&B. But those who wish to make carrier or work in treasury department, this is the best module to learn.
Module-D Balance Sheet Management
Important chapters are Components of ALM in Bank’s Balance Sheet, Capital and banking Regulation,, Capital Adequacy, Asset Classification and Provisioning Norms, Interest rate Risk management.
Though McMillan book contain sufficient material but I would suggest you to refer RBI website for this module. In this module focus more on Case Studies as compared to theoretical questions. Do not skip this module as it is much important for exam as well as knowledge point of view. No need to read McMillan line by line.
Overall you have to keep balance between theoretical reading as well as case studies/numerical since the paper would contain 40-45% case studies. N.S.Toor book contains good case studies and MCQs. Also there are many resources available on the internet from where you will get case studies for this module. After giving this paper you will realized that BFM is easier as compared to ABM and no need to worry for BFM.

ABM

ABM is one of the compulsory subjects for CAIIB. Most of the people find difficult to clear this paper. Today, I will tell you how to study for ABM subject.
This subject also contains 4 modules
MODULE – A: Economic Analysis
MODULE – B : Business Mathematics
MODULE – C : HRM in banks
MODULE – D : Credit Management
As we are bank employees we get very less time for study, so how to decide which topics to be read, which topics to be skipped?
-As I had told you in my previous blog article that generally paper consists of 60% theoretical & 40% numerical or case studies, so choose the module to be study in deep so as to clear the paper easily depending upon your personal strength and weakness.
If you observed all the modules, you will realize that Module A and Module C are most scoring modules. Do not skip these modules. Module B contains Business Mathematics which many people find difficult to study as the level of mathematics is tough, especially for non-engineering background people. Those who works in Credit/Loan Department will find that Module D easy as well as interesting. Module D is most important not only exam point of view but also for your daily working in Credit Department. So do not skip Module D.
IMPORTANT TOPICS FROM EACH MODULE
Module A- Supply and Demand, Money Supply and Inflation, Business Cycles, GDP Concepts and Union Budget.
No need to read McMillan Book line by line for thise module, short notes will be quite useful for studying this module. Don’t read stats given in these chapters. In GDP Concepts and Union Budget chapters numerical are asked which are quite easy provided you know the components and formula.
Module B-Time Value of Money, Sampling Methods, Simulation, Bond Investment
Don’t go to deep for study this module as mathematical calculations are difficult to understand especially for non engineering background people. Practice the examples given in McMillan. Those who are not good at math can skip this module and focus more on remaining modules.
Module C-Development of Human Resources, Human Implications of Organisations, Performamce Management, HR & IT
You need to read thoroughly all the topics from this module from McMillan. It is quite easy and theoretical only. Repeatedly read MCQs from N.S. Toor book of this module.
Module D-Overview of Credit Management, Analysis of Financial Statement, Working Capital Finance, Credit Control and Monitoring, Rehabilitation and Recovery.
Read this module from McMillan book only. The chapters in this module are not lengthy as compared to other modules. Practice Numerical from Financial statement and balance sheet.
Overall, you have to study at least three modules in detail so as to achieve the 50 score. You can choose the modules to study more depending upon your strength. I would suggest that you can keep module B at last, just read formulas from this module, as this module is quite boring, lengthy and hard to understand.

Risk management

Risk Management and credit rating
The risk that the banking business faces, can be:
· Credit risk
· Market risk (resulting from adverse movement of prices of govt. securities, interest rates, forex etc.)
· Operational risk (resulting from staff errors, failure of internal processes, external events etc.)
Credit Risk : It refers to the possibility of loss that the bank or financial institution may suffer as a consequence of inability of
the counterparty (i.e. the borrower, who is operating in an environment having many uncertainties resulting in threat to the
viability and sustainability of the activity) to meet its repayment or other commitment/s as per agreed conditions and commit
default.
Reserve Bank of India states that the credit risk or default risk involves inability or unwillingness of a customer or counterparty to
meet commitment in relation to lending, trading, hedging, settlement and other financial transactions.
In terms of the guidelines issued by RBI, the credit risk is generally made up of (I) transaction risk or default risk and (2) portfolio
risk. The portfolio risk in turn comprises intrinsic and concentration risk.
· The transaction risk is the risk arising from an individual transaction or a counterparty or b orrower's default in meeting the
commitment.
· The intrinsic risk is the risk which is inherent in respect of an activity due to the operating environment. This is also termed as
industry or activity risk.
· The concentration risk refers to the risk which arises as a result of undertaking exposure in only few industries or activities or
lines of business or borrowers and borrowing groups without ensuring the diversification of the portfolio.
Why does credit risk arise ?
The credit risk arises due to operation of a number of external and internal factors.
The external factors are the state of the economy of the concerned country or state or even global economy, wide swings in the
prices of various commodities, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, trade restrictions, economic sanctions, Govt. policies, natural
calamities etc.
The internal factors are the factors which may be internal to the borrower or internal to the financing institution.
· The factors internal to the borrowing entity may be planning factors, execution factors, finance factors, marketing factors,
management factors etc.
· The factors internal to the financing banks or institutions relate to the deficiencies in loan policies/administration,
absence of prudential credit concentration limits, inadequately defined lending limits for loan officers/credit committee,
deficiencies in appraisal of borrowers' financial position, excessive dependence on collaterals and inadequate risk pricing,
absence of loan review mechanism and post sanction surveillance etc.
Steps for credit risk mitigation:
The objective of mitigation is the restrict the risk within an acceptable limit and it involves steps to be taken at (a) macro level in
the bank and (b) micro level in the bank.
At Macro Level:
i. Frequent review of norms and fixing internal limits for aggregate commitments to specific sectors of industry and business.
2. periodical review of loan policies.
3. classification of portfolio based on certain parameters of quality
At Micro Level:
i. framing of policy regarding credit appraisal standards, sanction and delivery process, monitoring and review of individual
borrowers, obtaining collaterals.
2. obtaining credit rating and their updation.
Credit rating
The credit risk differs for each project and each promoter. The appraisal of proposal done with a view to measure the risk involved
and its quantification by using a credit rating method, with following objectives:
i. to take a decision whether to accept or reject a proposal without or without modification
2. to determine the rate of interest (risk pricing)
3. to help in. macro evaluation of the total credit portfolio by classifying the individual loan account in a specific category,
depending up on the rating.
Rating Models:
The rating can be done by using internal rating model available with the bank. Most of the banks have their rating models.
The rating can also be got done by using service of external rating agencies such as CRISIL, SMERA, CARE, ICRA etc.

Credit rating methodology:
Banks the credit rating model, based on which they are able to place their borrower in a particular rating category. The broader
categories of risk area that the rating models take into account are:
1. Management related aspects
2. Security related aspects
3. Financial aspects on the basis of financial statements
4. Business risk
These ratings are required to be reviewed periodically, in view of dynamic nature of the business of the borrower.
Derivative instruments for Credit Risk Management
The derivative instruments are used to hedge the inherent credit risk without transferring the loan account. Simple techniques for
transferring credit risk are available with the banks for very long time which include guarantors, collateral securities, credit
insurance from agencies like DICGC, CGTMSE. In recent some new instruments have also been introduced that include (a) Credit
default swaps and (b) credit linked notes.
Credit default swaps (CDS) : It is a contract between the financing bank (risk seller) and protection seller, whereby the protection
seller provides protection against credit events (i.e. default). For this purpose, the risk seller makes payment of premium to the
protection seller. The credit events include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring etc.
Credit linked notes (CLN): In this arrangement, the protection seller (normally a special purpose vehicle — SPV) issues notes linked
to underlying credit. These notes can be purchased by general public as investors and the SPV purchases high rated securities with
that amount. On maturity, these securities are sold and money is returned to investors, if there is no credit default. In case of
credit default, the funds are used to make payment to risk seller.
The risk seller makes regular payment of premium.
New Capital Accord (Basel 2) : Implications on Credit Risk
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has proposed 3 approaches, viz.,
1. Standardised and
2. Foundation Internal Rating Based Approach
3. Advanced Internal Rating Based Approach
In India, presently the Standardized approach has been implemented.
Under the standardised approach, preferential risk weights in the range of o%, 20%, 50%, 100% and 150% are assigned by RBI for
certain risk weighted assets and some discretion has been given to bank where they can allot risk weight on the basis of external
credit assessments.
Internal Rating Based Approach
There are two approaches — foundation and advanced - as an alternative to standardised approach for assigning preferential risk
weights. Under the foundation approach, banks, which comply with certain minimum requirements viz. comprehensive credit
rating system. The adoption of these approaches requires substantial upgradation of the existing credit risk management systems.
The time schedule fixed by RBI for migrating to Internal Rating Based approach is as under: The earliest date of making application by
banks to RBI — April 01, 2012 Likely date of approval by RBI — March 31, 2014.
The banks have been advised by RBI to undertake an internal assessment of their preparedness for migration to advanced approaches,
in the light of the criteria envisaged in the Basel II document, as per the aforesaid time schedule, and take a decision, with the approval
of their Boards, whether they would like to migrate to any of the advanced approaches. The banks deciding to migrate to the advanced
approaches should approach us for necessary approvals, in due course, as per the stipulated time schedule. If the result of a bank's
internal assessment indicates that it is not in a position to apply for implementation of advanced approach by the above mentioned
dates, it may choose a later date suitable to it based upon its preparation.
It may be noted that banks, at their discretion, would have the option of adopting the advanced approaches for one or more of the
risk categories, as per their preparedness, while continuing with the simpler approaches for other risk categories, and it would not
be necessary to adopt the advanced approaches for all the risk categories simultaneously. However, banks should invariably obtain
prior approval of the RBI for adopting any of the advanced approaches.
