1.2.2 Industry Profile - Insurance and Banking

Wherever there is uncertainty there is risk. We do not have any control over uncertainties which

involves financial losses. The risks may be certain events like death, pension, retirement or

uncertain events like theft, fire, accident, etc. Insurance may be described as a social device to

reduce or eliminate risk of loss to life and property. Under the plan of insurance, a large number

of people associate themselves by sharing risks attached to individuals. The risks, which can be

insured against, include fire, the perils of sea, death and accidents and burglary. Any risk

contingent upon these may be insured against at a premium commensurate with the risk

involved. Thus collective bearing of risk is insurance

Insurance And Banking is coexisting financial institution while complementing and

supplementing each other. The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act, 1999 have

created more opportunities for expansion of the markets. Industry serves the society in a very

effective manner.

Banking Institutions have got the opportunities to enter in insurance business while insurance

institutions have already under the autonomy of start banking business. Many non-banking

institutions have been opened, acquired funds and dissolved with public money at their stakes.

Since they were totally in the hands of private persons, the Government control became

ineffective. Banking institutions in India are mainly under the control of Reserve Bank of India.

People need insurance but they prefer investment over risk coverage although latter is more

important.

Indian mentality for insurance is very bleak people do not feel need of insurance although they

have dire-necessity for that. Insurance institutions in India have not considered forced insurance.

The voluntary-purchasing of insurance policies is rare phenomena. They prefer to go to bank

offices rather than going to insurance offices for getting risk coverage. The insurance institutions

procure the business through their agents who are the main link between people and the

company. The IRDA, Act is expected to mobiles insurance coverage and resources for

investment in the economy. The Government has assured that there would not be any

disinvestment in the LIC, GIC and their subsidiaries. Insurance Act, 1938, has not been sufficient

to regulate the insurance business in India.

Management cover insufficient.

Sectored growth is constrained by low unemployment levels and competition for

staff.

excessive regulations or strict conformity to official norms which is redundant or

bureaucratic and that hinders decision-making and delays work.

2.2 Opportunities and Threats of the Company

2.2.1 OPPORTUNITIES

Page 25: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

Insurable population: According to IRDA only 10% of the population is insured

which represent around 30% of the insurable population. This suggests more than

300m people, with the potential to buy insurance, remain uninsured.

International companies will help in building world class expertise in local market by

introducing the best global practice.

Could extend to overseas broadly.

New specialist applications.

Could seek better customer deals.

Fast-track career development opportunities on an industry-wide basis.

An applied research centre to create opportunities for developing techniques to

provide added-value services.

There will be inflow of managerial and financial expertise from the world’s leading

insurance markets. Further the burden of educating consumers will also be shared

among many players.

2.2.2 THREATS

Big public sector insurance companies like Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India,

National Insurance Company Limited, Oriental Insurance Limited, New India

Assurance Company Limited and United India Insurance Company Limited. People

trust and go to them more.

Legislation could impact and Great risk involved.

Very high competition prevailing in the industry.

Vulnerable to reactive attack by major competitors

Lack of infrastructure in rural areas could constrain investment

People prefer short term investments rather than insurance.

Valuation & liquidity concerns has kept the markets in range, and mid & small cap stocks has

performed well. Conviction levels in markets are low due to concerns of inflation, interest rate

hike & near term valuations.

3.2.1 Asset Allocation

An investment strategy that aims to balance risk and reward by apportioning a portfolio's assets

according to an individual's goals, risk tolerance and investment horizon.

The three main asset classes - equities, fixed-income, and cash and equivalents - have different

levels of risk and return, so each will behave differently over time. asset allocation is an

important factor in determining returns for an investment portfolio. Asset allocation is based on

the principle that different assets perform differently in different market and economic

conditions.

3.2.2 PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS – MARKET CAPWISE

Market capitalization is calculated by multiplying a company's shares outstanding by the current

market price of one share. Market cap (i.e, small cap, mid cap or large cap), it indicates the size

of the companies in which the fund invests.

Large Cap : $10 billion plus and include the companies with the largest market capitalization.

Mid Cap : $2 billion to $10 billion

Small Cap : Less than $2 billion

CHAPTER-4FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS

4.1. Conceptual Framework

Page 38: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

4.1.1 Definition of Portfolio Management:

A portfolio is a collection of securities since it is really desirable to invest the entire funds of an

individual or an institution or a single security, it is essential that every security be viewed in a

portfolio context. Thus it seems logical that the expected return of the portfolio. Portfolio

analysis considers the determine of future risk and return in holding various blends of individual

securities. Determining the mix of assets to hold in a portfolio is referred to as portfolio

management. Investors must balance risk and performance in making portfolio management

decisions.

4.1.2 Need For Portfolio Management:

Portfolio management is a process encompassing many activities of investment in assets and

securities. It is a dynamic and flexible concept and involves regular and systematic analysis,

judgment and action. The objective of this service is to help the unknown and investors with the

expertise of professionals in investment portfolio management. It involves construction of a

portfolio based upon the investor’s objectives, constraints, preferences for risk and returns and

tax liability. The portfolio is reviewed and adjusted from time to time in tune with the market

conditions. The evaluation of portfolio is to be done in terms of targets set for risk and returns.

The changes in the portfolio are to be effected to meet the changing condition. Portfolio

construction refers to the allocation of surplus funds in hand among variety of financial assets

open for investment. Portfolio theory concerns itself with the principles governing such

allocation. The modern view of investment is oriented more go towards the assembly of proper

combination of individual securities to form investment portfolio. A combination of securities

held together will give a beneficial result if they grouped in a manner to secure higher returns

after taking into consideration the risk elements.

The modern theory is the view that by diversification risk can be reduced. Diversification can be

made byte investor either by having a large number of shares of companies in different regions,

in different industries or those producing different types of product lines. Modern theory believes

in the perspective of combination of securities under constraints of risk and returns.

Page 39: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

4.1.3 Portfolio Management Process:

Investment management is a complex activity which may be broken down into the following

steps:

1. SPECIFICATION OF INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES ANDCONSTRAINTS:

The typical objectives sought by investors are current income, capital appreciation, and safety of

principle. The relative importance of these objectives should be specified further the constraints

arising from liquidity, time horizon, tax and special circumstances must be identified.

2. CHOICES OF THE ASSET MIX:

The most important decision in portfolio management is the asset mix decision very broadly; this

is concerned with the proportions of ‘stocks’ (equity shares and units/shares of equity-oriented

mutual funds) and ‘bonds’ in the portfolio. The appropriate ‘stock-bond’ mix depends mainly on

the risk tolerance and investment horizon of the investor.

4.1.4 Elements of Portfolio Management:

Portfolio management is on‐going process involving the following basic tasks:

Identification of the investor’s objectives, constraints and preferences. Strategies are to be

developed and implemented in tune with investment policy formulated. Review and monitoring

of the performance of the portfolio. Finally the evaluation of the portfolio.

RISK:

Risk is uncertainty of the income /capital appreciation or loss or both. All investments are risky.

The higher the risk taken, the higher is the return. But proper management of risk involves the

right choice of investments whose risks are compensating.

RETURNS ON PORTFOLIO:

Each security in a portfolio contributes return in the proportion of its investments in security.

Thus the portfolio expected return is the weighted average of the expected return, from each of

the securities, with weights representing the proportions share of the security in the total

investment. Why does an investor have so many securities in his portfolio? If the security ABC

Page 40: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

gives the maximum return why not he invests in that security all his funds and thus maximize

return? The answer to this questions lie in the investor’s perception of risk attached to

investments, his objectives of income, safety, appreciation, liquidity and hedge against loss of

value of money etc. this pattern of investment in different asset categories, types of investment,

etc., would all be described under the caption of diversification, which aims at the reduction or

even elimination onion-systematic risks and achieve the specific objectives of investors

RISK ON PORTFOLIO:

The expected returns from individual securities carry some degree of risk. Risk on the portfolio

is different from the risk on individual securities. The risk is reflected in the variability of the

returns from zero to infinity. Risk of the individual assets or a portfolios measured by the

variance of its return. The expected return depends on the probability of the returns and their

weighted contribution to the risk of the portfolio. These are two measures of risk in this context

one is the absolute deviation and other standard deviation.’

Most investors invest in a portfolio of assets, because as to spread risk by not putting all eggs in

one basket. Hence, what really matters to them are not the risk and return of stocks in isolation,

but the risk and return of the portfolio as a whole. Risk is mainly reduced by Diversification.

RISK RETURN ANALYSIS:

All investment has some risk. Investment in shares of companies has its own risk or uncertainty;

these risks arise out of variability of yields and uncertainty of appreciation or depreciation of

share prices, losses of liquidity etched risk over time can be represented by the variance of the

returns, while the return overtime is capital appreciation plus payout, divided by the purchase

price of the share. Normally, the higher the risk that the investor takes, the higher is the return.

There is, however, a risk less return on capital of about 12% which is the bank, rate charged byte

R.B.I or long term, yielded on government securities at around 13% to 14%. This riskless return

refers to lack of variability of return and no uncertainty in the repayment or capital. But other

risks such as loss of liquidity due to parting with money etc., may however remain, but are

rewarded by the total return on the capital. Risk-return is subject to variation and the objectives

of the portfolio manager are to reduce that variability and we reduce the risk by choosing an

appropriate portfolio. Traditional approach advocates that one security holds the better, it is

Page 41: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

according to the modern approach diversification should not be quantity that should be related to

the quality of scripts which leads to quality of portfolio. Experience has shown that beyond the

certain securities by adding more securities expensive.

4.1.5 Persons Involved In Portfolio Management:

INVESTOR:

Investors are the people who are interested in investing their funds

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS:

Is a person who is in the wake of a contract agreement with a client, advices or directs or

undertakes on behalf of the clients, the management or distribution or management of the funds

of the client as the case may be.

4.1.6 Functions of Portfolio Managers:

The main functions of portfolio managers are:

• Advisory role: advice new investments, review the existing ones, identification of objectives,

recommending high yield securities etc.

• Conducting market and economic service: this is essential for recommending good yielding

securities they have to study the current fiscal policy, budget proposal; individual policies etc

further portfolio manager should take in to 33 accounts the credit policy, industrial growth,

foreign exchange possible change in corporate law’s etc.

• Financial analysis: he should evaluate the financial statement of company in order to

understand, their net worth future earnings, prospectus and strength.

• Study of stock market: he should observe the trends at various stock exchange and analysis

scripts so that he is able to identify the right securities for investment

• Study of industry: he should study the industry to know its future prospects, technical changes

etc, required for investment proposal he should also see the problem’s of the industry.

Page 42: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

• Decide the type of port folio: keeping in mind the objectives of portfolio a portfolio manager

has to decide whether the portfolio should comprise equity preference shares, debentures,

convertibles, non-convertibles or partly convertibles, money market, securities etc or a mix of

more than one type of proper mix ensures higher safety, yield and liquidity coupled with

balanced risk techniques of portfolio management.

4.1.7 Technique’s Of Portfolio Management Followed in IDBI Federal:

As of now the under noted technique of portfolio management: are in vogue in our country

1. Equity portfolio: is influenced by internal and external factors the internal factors affect the

inner working of the company’s growth plans are analyzed with referenced to Balance sheet,

profit & loss a/c (account) of the company. Among the external factor are changes in the

government policies, Trade cycle’s etc.

2. Equity stock analysis: under this method the probable future value of a share of a company is

determined it can be done by ratios of earning per share of the company and price earnings ratio.

EPS = PROFIT AFTER TAX / NO. OF EQUITY SHARES

PRICE EARNING RATIO = MARKET PRICE / E.P.S (earnings per share)

One can estimate trend of earning by EPS, which reflects trends of earning quality of company,

dividend policy, and quality of management. Price earnings ratio indicate a confidence of market

about the company future, a high rating is preferable.

The following points are taken into considered by portfolio managers while analyzing the

Securities:

1. Nature of the industry and its product: long term trends of industries, competition

within, and outside the industry, Technical changes, labour relations, sensitivity to Trade

cycle.

2. Ratio analysis: Ratio such as debt equity ratio’s current ratio’s net worth, profit earnings

ratio, returns on investment, is worked out to decide the portfolio.

Page 43: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

4.7.8 Net Asset Value

The Term Net Asset Value (NAV) is used by investment companies to measure net assets. It is

calculated by subtracting liabilities from the value of a fund's securities and other items of value

and dividing this by the number of outstanding shares.

4.7.9 Measurement of risk

Risk refers to the possibility that the actual outcome of an investment will differ from the

expected outcome. In other words we can say that risk refers to variability or dispersion. If any

investment is said to invariable it means that it is totally risk free. Whenever we calculate the

mean returns of an investment we also need to calculate the variability in the returns.

1. SHARPE RATIO

The Sharpe ratio is the returns generated over the risk free rate, per unit of risk. Risk in this case

is taken to be the fund’s standard deviation. As standard deviation represents the total risk

experienced by a fund, the Sharpe ratio reflects the returns generated by undertaking all possible

risk. Mathematically,

While investor seeks to generate high returns the question arises, how high? Usually one asks

for returns, which are higher than those accustomed to. These are returns from risk-less

instruments like treasury bills, government securities or bank saving deposits. So the aim of

investing seems to be to generate returns in excess of the risk free return. At the same time high

returns are generally associated with a high degree of volatility. The investors accept this

volatility only because they want higher returns. The Sharpe ratio represents this trade-off

between risk and returns. At the same time it also factors in the desire to generate returns, which

are higher than those from risk free return.

Page 44: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

A higher Sharpe ratio is therefore better as it represents a higher return generated per unit of risk.

For an investor who puts in all his/her money in a single fund, Sharpe ratio is a useful measure

of risk-adjusted return. This is because standard deviation measures total risk and this is the case

with a single portfolio.

The Sharpe ratio tells us whether a portfolio's returns are due to smart investment decisions or a

result of excess risk. This measurement is very useful be ca use although one portfolio or fund

can reap higher returns than its peers, it is only a good investment if those higher returns do not

come with too much additional risk. The greater a portfolio's Sharpe ratio, the better it s risk-

adjusted performance has been.

2. BETA:

A measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the

market as a whole. A beta of 1 indicates that the security's price will move with the market. A

beta of less than 1 means that the security will be less volatile than the market. A beta of greater

than 1indicates that the security's price will be more volatile than the market.

Calculating BETA

BETA is ascertained mathematically by finding the covariance of the returns of the scrip to those

of the market and then dividing it by the variance of the market return. As a market professional

one is aware of his / her investment objectives and how much risk he/she can assume and canbest

decide whether to use weekly, monthly or daily pricing information in BETA calculation.

BETA (ß) = Covariance (portfolio’s NAV, market Index)

Variance ( market Index)

3. R- SQUARED:

R-squared value s range from 0 to 1. An R-squared of 1 means that all movement s of a security

are completely explained by movements in the index. A high R-squared (between 0.85 and 1)

indicates the fund's performance patterns have been in line with the index. A fund with a low R

squared (0.70 or less) doesn't act much like the index.

Page 45: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

4. STANDARD DEVIATION:

In the core of the fund analysis activity lie the twin pursuits of judging returns and risk. Stripped

of a lot of the complexity, this task involves determining a fund's average performance over a

period of time. Standard Deviation gives a quality rating of an average. The Standard Deviation

of an average is the amount by which the numbers that go into an average deviate from that

average. It tells us how closely an average represents the underlying numbers.

If the individual monthly performances are very different from the average, then that fund is

risky, delivering high returns in some months and poor returns in others. If they are mostly

similar, then the fund is a low risk one, with about the same returns month after month.

A high Standard Deviation may be a measure of volatility, but it does not necessarily mean that

such a fund is worse than one with a low Standard Deviation. If the first fund is a much higher

performer than the second one, the deviation will not matter much.

CHAPTER-5SUMMARY & CONCLUSION

Page 48: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

A. Lessons Learnt

My Internship in IDBI Federal Insurance Co Ltd started on 10th June 2013. As per the program, I

had training for Incomesurance and the different sales techniques to pitch for my prospective

clients. I grabbed the opportunity to meet different people from diverse backgrounds and

occupations to discuss on insurance related topics. Along with the sales part, I had been assigned

a project for which I had chosen the topic Comparative study on June and July 2013 Portfolios.

Working in IDBI Federal has helped me to gain lots of experience in the sale and finance field. I

worked there under the sales and portfolio management team. I gained practical knowledge of

funds and how they are allocated. The main contribution of an employee to its organization is to

perform its responsibilities given with 100% effort and honesty. My major responsibility was to

sell the product and analyze the performance of the investment team by comparing the June ’13

and July ’13 portfolio performance for the organization. I am one of the top performers of my

company where in a month I gave the business of 2 lakhs and I was given the “Best

Performance” certificate. For the goodwill of the company I was always honest to tell all the

facts and benefits of the product to the customer and convince them for the right product that

best suited them. After login their forms I called them and do a formal call that whether they

received their documents or not and if some complication occurred with the document, I was

helped in analysis of the performance of the portfolio, design by the investment team. Portfolio

of the organization is managed after analysis of the performance of each and every company

before investing and taking into consideration the risk and return relationship. Investment

department is performing very well and company is able to provide good returns to the

customers. I am very much satisfied with the level of work, I have done for the company and I

am also able to keep my senior manager happy through my dedication, hard work, and

performance. I and my seniors are happy with my contribution to the organization.

Page 49: Portfolio Management in Idbi Federal Training Report

B. Suggestions

1. Time of study and training was less.

2. Since everything in IDBI FEDERAL is driven from HEAD OFFICE which is at MUMBAI,

thus many a times it uses to get difficult to contact the concerned departments since they are at

Mumbai.

3. Being an agency, most of the work of IDBI federal at Connaught place, is sales and thus less

exposure is given to students with FINANCE background. Thus, strongly recommended for

students who are interested in blooming their careers in Marketing and sales.
