In fact, banks act as financial intermediaries to transfer capital from overfunded customers (capital mobilization, bank deposits) to customers who are in need of capital (lending activities). However, lending activities also carry many risks. In recent years, there have been many mistakes related to the loss of capital at banks, with the amount of up to trillions VND. The reason is the mistake of bank officials to comply with the procedures and regulations in lending activities.
In addition, the assessment of the financial situation of corporate customers at banks has not been paid much attention. The misassessment of the financial situation of customers, the misuse of borrowed funds for the purpose of commitment,. leading to capital loss, thereby causing serious losses to the bank. Therefore, in order to avoid risks and perform this business well, banks need to improve the analysis of financial statements of enterprises, to ensure the ability to recover capital and the feasibility of projects of enterprises.
