    Table 4-37 Borrower Details

    Fields Description
    Borrower Select the name of the borrower for whom you want to maintain the sublimit from the option list.
    Loan Product Select the loan product you want to map the borrower from the option list. The description of the selected loan product gets displayed in the adjacent text box.
    Currency Select the currency for which you want to maintain the limit amount. The description of the currency gets displayed in the adjacent text box.
    FM Reference Number Specify the FM Reference Number for the sub-limit.
    Facility ID Specify the Facility Identification for the sub-limit.
    Modified Date The system displays the date on which the sub-limit is created or modified.
    You can also specify the field Limit amount in Currencywise Drawing Limit of this screen.
    • Limit amount

      Specify the limit amount for the currency selected against the loan product combination.

      The limits can be defined for individual contract currency and the limit amount is specified in the commitment currency.

      During the Loan Linkage, at the contract Level system validates whether the loan linkage amount is exceeding the sub-limit defined at the commitment level, for the combination of Borrower, product and currency. This validation is run during Loan Booking also.

      In case of counterparty change system validates that transfer amount is within the available sub-limit amount defined for the new counterparty for the contract currency.

      If you want to maintain the limit across products for a particular Borrower, the same can be maintained against ALL Product. In this case, you cannot define sublimit for the individual product.

      Similarly, if you want to maintain the limit across currencies for a particular borrower and product combination, the same can be maintained against ALL Currency. In this case, you cannot define sublimit for the individual currency.

      Revolving and Non – Revolving attribute of the commitment is considered for tracking the utilization against the limit maintained for the combination of borrower, product, and currency.

      Sub-limit validations are also to be done during value dated amendment, payment reversal (for non-revolving), exchange rate amendment and split reprice (for the additional amount, if any).

      Example

      The maintenance given below is done at the commitment level.

      Table 4-38 Commitment Level Maintenance

      Borrower Product Currency Amount
      B1 D1 USD 50MM
