SCHEDULE II
EXAMPLE ON THE CALCULATION OF REQUIRED RESERVE, AVERAGE BALANCE OF DEPOSITS AND THE DETERMINATION OF THE SURPLUS AND DEFICIENCY OF RESERVE DEPOSITED WITH THE STATE BANK IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLE 12 AND 13 OF THE REGULATION ON RESERVE REQUIREMENT.
Example: For the period of reserve maintenance of January, 1999, the calculation is as follows:
- The Formula for calculating the required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance:
Required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance of January, 1999 | = | Daily average balance of deposits from 1 Dec. to 31 Dec. 1998 (the period of required reserve) | x | Ratio of required reserve in % |
- Calculation of average balance of deposits in the period of determining required reserve:
Daily average balance | = | Total deposits from 1.12 to 31.12.1998 |
31 |
- The formula for calculating the average balance of deposits in the period of reserve maintenance of January, 1999 placed with the State Bank:
Average balance of deposits in the period of reserve maintenance | = | Total deposits from 1.Jan 1999 to 31 Jan 1999 |
31 |
Example 1. Assuming that the Governor of the State Bank decides the ratio of reserve requirement to be 7% on the total average balance of deposit with term of under 12 months, 0% on the average balance of deposits with term of more than 12 months and the total average balance deposits of the credit institution X which is subject to reserve requirement in VND for the period of determining the reserve requirement of December 1998 is VND 12,000 bil. (of which VND 10,000 bil. are deposits with term less than 12 months, VND 2,000 bil. are deposits with term of more than 12 months); the actual average balance deposits with the State Bank in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 is VND 720 bil. The determination and notice to be given on the required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 and the determination of the actual reserve surplus and deficiency for January 1999 of the credit institution X are as follows:
* From the 3rd day to the 5th day of January, 1999, the Banking Operations Department and the State Bank branches would calculate and give notice on the required reserve for the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999:
Required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance of January 99 | = | VND 10,000 billions x 7% + VND 2,000 billions x 0% | = | VND 700 billions |
The credit institution X has, thus, to maintain the average balance of VND 700 Bil. on the deposit with the State Bank in the period of reserve maintenance.
* From the 3rd day to the 5th day of February 1999, the Banking Operations Department and the State Bank branches shall determine the reserve surplus and deficiency in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999.
If the credit institution X maintains the average balance of VND 720 bil. on the deposit with the State Bank, in accordance with the respective provision, credit institution X has a reserve surplus of VND 20 bil. and is entitled to interest on this surplus to be paid by the State Bank of Vietnam during this period of reserve maintenance.
Assuming the Governor of the State Bank provides the interest to be paid on the reserve surplus in VND at 0.1%/month, the credit institution X would earn an interest amount in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 as follows:
Total interest earning = VND 20,000,000,000 x 0.1% = VND 20,000,000
The credit institution X earns a sum of interest on the reserve surplus in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 of VND 20,000,000.
Example 2:. Assuming the Governor of the State Bank decides the ratio of reserve requirement to be 7% on the total average balance of deposit with term of under 12 months, 0% on the average balance of deposits with term of more than 12 months and the total average balance deposits of the credit institution Y which is subject to reserve requirement in VND in the period for determining reserve requirement of December 1998 is VND 12,000 billions (of which VND 10,000 billions are deposits with term less than 12 months, VND 2,000 billions are deposits with term of more than 12 months); the actual average balance deposits with the State Bank in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 is VND 670 billions. The determination and notice to be given on the required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 and the determination of the actual reserve surplus and deficiency for January 1999 of the credit institution Y are as follows:
* From the 3rd day to the 5th day of January 1999, the Banking Operations Department and the State Bank branches would calculate and give notice on the required reserve for the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999:
Required reserve in the period of reserve maintenance of January 99 | = | VND 10,000 billions x 7% + VND 2,000 billions x 0% | = | VND 700 billions |
The credit institution Y has, thus, to maintain the average balance of VND 700 billions on the deposit with the State Bank in the period of reserve maintenance.
* From the 3rd day to the 5th day of February 1999, the Banking Operations Department and the State Bank branches shall determine the reserve surplus and deficiency in the period of reserve maintenance of January, 1999.
In accordance with the provision, the average balance of VND 700 billions on the deposit with the State Bank is to be maintained for the period of reserve maintenance and the actual reserve of credit institution Y is VND 670 billions The reserve deficiency of credit institution Y is VND 30 billions (VND 670 billions - VND 700 billions).
Dealing with the reserve deficiency of credit institution Y:
Assuming the Governor of the State Bank provides the penalty rate to be charged on the reserve deficiency in VND at 150% of the refinancing rate (the current refinancing rate is 1.1%/month), the credit institution Y would be subject to a penalty for the reserve deficiency in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999 as follows:
The penalty (fine) = VND 30,000,000,000 x 150% x 1.1% = VND 495,000,000
The credit institution Y would have to pay a penalty of VND 495 millions for the reserve deficiency in the period of reserve maintenance of January 1999.
