STATE BANK OF PAKISTAN BANKING SUPERVISION DEPARTMENT

BSD Circular No.08
September 06, 2003

The Presidents/Chief Executives
All Banks/DFIs/NBFCs
Dear Sirs/Madam,

CIB Data

Please refer to BSD Circular No.4 dated 25th February, 2003 on the captioned subject, in terms of which banks/DFIs/NBFCs were advised, interalia, to submit CIB data of borrowers of Rs.0.5 million and above through online system within 15 days from the close of each calendar month.
 
2) With the introduction of online facility for submission of CIB data and in order to provide latest CIB position to banks/DFIs/NBFCs, it has been decided to reduce the time lag between the data reporting date and uploading of data on CIB server for generating CIB reports. Accordingly, banks/DFIs/NBFCs are advised to submit the CIB data of their borrowers of Rs.0.5 million & above through online system by 10th of each month following the month to which CIB data relates to. The revised timeline shall be applicable for submission of CIB data for the month ending 30th September, 2003, which shall be submitted on or before 10th October, 2003. The banks/DFIs/NBFCs are also advised to ensure accurate reporting of data to the CIB.
 
3) It has been observed that banks/DFIs/NBFCs do not intimate the subsequent repayment/settlement of overdues/defaults to the CIB which causes inconvenience to the borrowers and also adversely affects their reputation. It has, therefore, been decided that the banks/DFIs/NBFCs shall invariably report in writing to CIB the subsequent clearance of overdues/defaults within three working days from the date of such repayment/settlement.
 
4) Furthermore, in order to facilitate borrowers and to provide latest position of their indebtedness in the CIB report it has been decided to reflect the detail of re-payment/settlement of overdues/defaults made subsequent to the reporting date in the CIB report by way of following notes in the remarks column of the CIB report on the basis of a written letter from the concerned bank/DFI/NBFC confirming that the overdues/defaults amount has been cleared by the borrower on a specific date:
 
“The concerned bank/DFI/NBFC has subsequently reported clearance of overdues/defaults of Rs. …… on …… (date).”
 
5) In order to make the above arrangements effective, banks/DFIs/NBFCs are advised to ensure confirmation within three working days, of the borrower’s repayment status on receipt of a query from the State Bank and subsequently ensure reporting of the updated and accurate data in the relevant month’s CIB data to SBP so that borrowers are not adversely impacted by the mis-reporting of data. Any mis-reporting shall attract penal action under the relevant provisions of the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962.
 
6) Other instructions on the subject shall, however, remain unchanged.
 
Please acknowledge receipt.
 
Yours faithfully,

(JAMEEL AHMAD)
Director
