“ A Study of the Risk and Return of alternative Investment Opportunities available to High Net worth Individuals – A Case Study of ING Vysya Bank Limited”

Portfolio Management has been an integral part for any investor. Each Investor, whether small or big is trying to maximize his/ her returns by making a diversified investment. To diversify the investment the risk and return trade off of each investment avenue has to be studied. Therefore the study of portfolio management and risk and return is very important of an investor.

Now days there are professional investment advisors who study the risk and return portfolio of each investor and design the most well suited portfolio from him/ her. Banks also provide professional investment advice. This has opened up a huge market for the advisors and has become very competitive.

ING Vysya Bank also provides professional advise to its clients. A common problem faced by the bank’s advisors is that they have a low conversion rate on the advice given by them.

Therefore a study and analysis has been conducted on a sample of 10 HNI’s of the bank to analyze their investment portfolio and risk appetite. An analysis of the bank’s products is also conducted to understand them in detail. Then the required suggestions are made to the investment advisors to improve the conversion rate and retain HNI’s.

Area Of Management

The area of study, which my project report covers, is financial management. In financial management my project report covers two subjects:

–    Portfolio management of ING Vysya bank’s HNI clients and;
–    Risk and return analysis of each investment avenue open to a HNI client.

Financial  Management

Transformers are classified into broad categories and classification according to Rating,  Core, Cooling, Voltage class. For our understanding, we consider only two types of transformers.

1)    Step-up Transformer and
2)    Step-down Transformer

Step-up Transformer: If the secondary voltage is more than the primary voltage, it is called step-up Transformer.
Step-down Transformer: If the secondary voltage is less than the primary voltage, it is called step-down transformer.
Transformers are among the most efficient machines 95% efficiency being common in lower capacity ranges, while an efficiency of the order of 99%is achievable in high capacity; transport constraints, handling facilities, etc. being the limiting factors. The lower limit is governed by the allowable no-load loss.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

The study is based on the following objectives:

1. To study the growth and development of the transformer manufacturing industry in general.

2. To study the profile of the Vijai Electricals Ltd.

3. To evaluate the financial performance of the Vijai Electricals Ltd., by calculating Liquidity Ratio, Leverage Ratios, Turnover Ratios & Profitability Ratios.

METHODOLOGY OF THE STUDY

The Data is  collected from the following two sources:

1. Primary Sources:

Most of the information is collected from:

-Personal observation by visiting Different departments.

-Personal Interview.

2. Secondary Sources:

1. Published material about VE Ltd., such as the annual reports of the last five years.

2. Survey of Transformer Industry published in various Manuals and journals.

3. Internal records and files of V.E.  Ltd. including information reports.

4. Advertisements published in various magazines and various rented books.

LIMITATIONS OF THE  STUDY

The Ratio Analysis of Vijai Electricals Ltd MBA Final Year Project study has been conducted in a systematic and comprehensive way so as to make the project work an enviable one. However, the topic under study may not be free from limitations due to the facts.

The major limitation of the project under study was time.  Since it was to be completed within a short period of time.  Which is not sufficient to undertake a comprehensive study.

Non-availability of complete information is also a limit.

SUMMARY

Transformer industry has been in existence in India for the past  one century. The public sector gaint BHEL used has been a leading player in the industry in post independence era. Since 1970s the private sector industries have made great strides and made their presence felt.

VEL since establishment in the year 1973 has made leaps and bounds and today has grown into one of the most sophisticated and quality conscious companies in the field of transformer manufacturing in India as well as Asia. Today it has well integrated facilities for the manufacture of transformers from 5kva rating to 10000 MVA. The company’s enviable achievement in terms of sales, profitability and market is due to its steadfast commitment to quality even during tough times. The company has fully integrated facilities due to the backward integration projects undertaken by the company during the last one decade.

Due to the integration projects the company  could cut down on costs  without compromising on quality. The Gross Profit margin of nearly 25%  is one of the visible parameters of this achievement.

FINDINGS

1.    The performance of the company has been very good since the past three years. It
has turned the corner from being a loss making unit for three years to a highly profit making concern.

 Final Year MBA Project Objective:

 Despite market expansion the profit generation is still a question mark, so companies have to search for areas of next generation like value added services, software enhancement and development other than just BPO services to survive in the market.

• · In the present day economies are globalized and the stabilities of them is really at stake, the only rescue for the software companies is to improve their responsiveness to the changing scenarios.· Companies have to develop their services to the bench mark level or global standards so that they can have acceptance all over the world.

• The troubles of many exporters are not a result of the volatility of the rupee but the unfavorably high-cost structure. Exporters are viable only when foreign exchange earnings get converted into more and more rupees. To improve rupee viability and preserve profits, exporters need to be efficient and productive and bring down aggregate rupee cost.

• Poor viability will not be resolved by hedging. Considering an inefficient exporter, it requires a break even exchange rate of Rs.45 dollar to show profit. It will dazzle at a rate above Rs.45. It will fizzle at any exchange rate below Rs.45.

• In case of forward contract. The forward contract locks in the exporter conversion of dollar revenues to rupee revenues at Rs.41, the market forward price per dollar. The market will surely not buy the exporters dollars at Rs.41 will be wholly ineffective exporters will be in serious trouble despite the perfect hedge.

• The problem of viability will be solved only when the exporters break even moves down to Rs.41 per dollar. By contrast, an inefficient exporter that is viable at Rs.41 peer dollar can take advantage of the hedge.
• 
  
• The implicit dollar method will significantly preserve the dollar profitability exporters. The employees and managers of exporting firms will be paid implicitly in dollars. The cost to the company will be in dollars. But the payout will be in rupees and at the prevailing exchange rates. If the dollar weakens, the dollar costs of employees and managers will be paid out in rupees at say, RS.39, if the dollar strengthens the cost of employees and managers will be paid out in rupees at say, Rs.43.

• To overcome these problems exporters should make good governance by making available superior human, social and business infrastructure even if the tax rates are high. Good governance lower the costs of operations and lowers the aggregate costs of doing business.
