The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has introduced a new Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) framework aimed at improving weak Urban Cooperative Banks (UCBs).<\/p>\n

This framework will replace the existing Supervisory Action Framework (SAF) and will be effective from April 1, 2025.<\/p>\n

About the framework<\/h2>\n

1. The PCA framework is designed to ensure timely intervention and corrective measures for weak UCBs.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 It focuses more on larger UCBs that require intensive monitoring, thereby optimizing supervisory resources.<\/p>\n

3. Applicability:<\/strong> The new PCA framework will apply to UCBs with deposits exceeding Rs 100 crore. UCBs are categorized into four tiers based on their deposit sizes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Tier Type<\/td>\nDeposit size<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tier 1<\/td>\nUCBs with deposits up to Rs 100 crore.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tier 2<\/td>\nUCBs with deposits above Rs 100 crore but less than Rs 1,000 crore.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tier 4<\/td>\nUCBs with deposits above Rs 1,000 crore but less than Rs 10,000 crore.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tier 4<\/td>\nUCBs with deposits above Rs 10,000 crore.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Note:\u00a0 Currently, Tier 1 UCBs are excluded from the PCA framework but will continue to be under enhanced monitoring.<\/p>\n

4. Criteria for Invoking PCA:<\/strong><\/p>\n

i)\u00a0 If the CAR falls up to 250 basis points below the required level.<\/p>\n

ii) If net NPAs are above 6% but below 9%.<\/p>\n

iii) If a bank incurs losses for two consecutive years.<\/p>\n

5. Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n

i) The PCA framework will be invoked based on the reported and audited annual financial results and ongoing supervisory assessments by the RBI.<\/p>\n

ii) The RBI may impose PCA at any time during the year if circumstances warrant immediate action.<\/p>\n

6. \u00a0The revised framework allows for entity-specific supervisory action plans based on risk assessments.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 The hard-coded limit of Rs 25,000 for restrictions on capital expenditure under SAF has been removed, giving supervisors the flexibility to set limits based on their assessment of each entity.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 UCBs can exit the PCA framework if no breaches in risk thresholds are observed across four successive quarterly financial statements.<\/p>\n
