1.3 Bad debt in real estate lending

1.3.1 Concepts

The definition of bad debt of Vietnam in Decision 493/2005/QD-NHNN dated 22/4/2005 of the State Bank is as follows: “NPLs are debts classified into group 3 (subprime), group 4 (suspicious). doubt) and group 5 (potentially losing capital)”. Specifically, group 3 or less includes debts that are overdue for payment of interest and/or principal for more than 90 days, and at the same time, Article 7 of the above Decision also stipulates that commercial banks shall base their accounts on the repayment capacity of customers. loans into the appropriate groups. Thus, bad debt is determined by two factors: overdue for more than 90 days and worrying ability to repay.

According to the definition of bad debt of the Statistics Office – United Nations, “basically a debt is considered bad debt when the interest and/or principal payment is overdue by more than 90 days; or unpaid interests of 90 days or more which have been principally refinanced, refinanced or delayed as agreed; or payments that are less than 90 days past due but there is solid reason to doubt that the loan will be paid in full.” Thus, bad debt is also basically determined based on 2 factors: overdue for more than 90 days and doubtful repayment ability, and when customers have bad debts of group 3 or more, it will be very difficult to be approved by the bank. loan for at least 5 years.

After classifying debts, credit institutions must make provision for risks according to the following ratios: + Group 1: 0% + Group 2: 5% + Group 3: 20% + Group 4: 50% + Group 5: 100% Amount Amount to be set up = setting up ratio x (principal balance – value of collateral for that debt)

Bad debt ratio /Total credit balance = total value of bad debts / total credit balance at the time of calculation (it is equal to the ratio of bad debt to total debt from group 1 to group 5).

Clause 1, Article 4 of the Law on Real Estate Business 2006 stipulates that “Real estate business includes real estate business and real estate service business”. From there, it can be defined that bad debt in real estate lending is group 3, group 4, group 5 loans with the main purpose of serving real estate investment projects and real estate services.

1.3.2 Causes of bad debt in real estate lending

Theoretically, bad debt occurs when the borrower’s ability to fail to perform or fulfill obligations towards the bank, causing losses to the bank. In other words, it is the ability of customers to fail to pay or not fully and on time pay both principal and interest to the bank. Bad debt in real estate lending occurs from many different factors such as the unstable legal and economic environment, which reduces the repayment capacity of customers or the weakness in management and control capacity. control bad debt of the bank itself. Bad debt can happen due to many reasons: – Objective reasons

+ Due to unstable economic environment

The process of global liberalization and international integration can cause bad debts to increase rapidly when creating an extremely fierce competitive environment, making businesses – customers of banks have to face the law. competition and risk of loss.

The recent high and growing bad debt affects Vietnam’s unreasonable and ineffective growth model, especially when the economic environment is more difficult.

The economic growth (GDP) is high and capital-based, while technology, and specifically management, has not kept pace, the more businesses borrow, the more difficult it is to effectively manage the currencies. that loan (or the business becomes more careless with easy capital). The difficult macroeconomic environment is also certainly reflected in the bad debt in banks. Therefore, when the economy declines, that difficulty is also reflected in the assets of enterprises, and it is inevitable that enterprises’ loans from banks are also difficult to repay, and bad debts increase.
