Design And Implementation Of A Computerized Loan Management System For Rejecting Or Approving Loan Request Using Credit Risk And Evaluation Models

INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Financial institutions offer loan services to small organizations individuals and this was initiated after a number of considerations on the banking system. This project attempts to design and implement a computerized loan management system for rejecting or approving loan request using credit risk and evaluation models and know about loan sanctioning and lending procedure among banks across the globe. It also attempts to use the credit risk and evaluation models to develop a strict approach to these areas, to think through policies, principles, and practices to accomplish the new tasks. By the time the system is fully implemented, it will be able to understand, think, and be fully equipped to handle today’s and also for tomorrow’s credit managerial work in financial institutions. Moreover, there is a significant question for banks and their regulators is assessing the accuracy of a model’s forecasts of credit misfortunes and losses, particularly given the small number of accessible forecasts and estimates due to their typically long planning horizons. Utilizing the credit risk and evaluation, we propose evaluation techniques for credit risk models based on cross sectional dependent. In particular, models are evaluated and accessed not only on their estimates over time, but also on their forecasts at a given period in time for simulated credit portfolios. Once the estimates corresponding to these portfolios are generated, they can be evaluated using various statistical methods. This project when implemented, will provide a smooth channel for processing of Loans in financial institutions across the country. The proposed system upon completion will replace the manual loan application process and automates the loan process from both, the banks as well as the customers’. Customer can now apply for loans seamlessly without having to visit the banks and if approved customers can track their loan details from the comfort of their homes. The loan management system with credit risk and evaluation models is a very efficient process to handle all loan related transaction in a very accurate and convenient way. The Credit Risk becomes important to implement in financial and accounting. It incorporates bankruptcy forecasting, financial distress, corporate performance bunching / expectation and credit risk estimation. The online Bank loan management system is an interface which facilitates a customer to apply for a loan using a digital channel through the internet, the system check for possible bankruptcy prediction, credit risk estimation to track the status from time-to-time. This system provides detail about the customers’ financial status over a period of time, their loan details, risk estimation and possible bankruptcy prediction. Getting a loan is a very tiring and complicated process in Nigeria. It may take weeks or even months for loans application to get reviewed, before getting approvals and people have to visit the financial office for documentation and customer verification.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Currently, most financial institutions do not have any an automated system to help manage the data of customers applying for Loans, Grants and Investments with credit risk evaluation. They have to rely on manual procedures which is time consuming and doesn’t calculate the credit risk evaluation in case of bankruptcy. This manual procedure doesn’t maintain customer records with proper security and can’t track details easily. It doesn’t allow the customer to check their loan request, submit bank account statement if need be. The Existing manual procedure isn’t equipped with basic functionalities of fast access to information such as customer details and maintenance of all the loan details so it involves lots of paperwork. Apart from administrative task being cumbersome, manual system of registration is also long and error-prone.

1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
