Introduction
This study covers the four main areas of balance sheet
management, namely interest rate risk management, liquidity
risk management, capital management and management of
discretionary investment portfolios. Many of these functions
would be covered by the asset and liability management (ALM)
function in banks, but we use the broader term ‘balance sheet
management’ because the study covers capital management as
well as the more traditional ALM focus areas.
The financial crisis has highlighted the need for organisations to take a more holistic
view of their balance sheets. The financial view of the organisation has evolved over
the past decade or so to one which looks at lines of business, rather than legal
entities, as the primary profit centres, and both finance departments and national
supervisors have been struggling with the tensions arising from this shift. At the same
time the risk view of the organisation has also been equally silo-driven, with risk
departments focusing on individual risk classes. Liquidity risk, in particular, has
thrown up some challenges to this way of viewing finance and risk. What may look
acceptable for each line of business on its own may turn out to be an unacceptable
level of risk or product concentration for the organisation as a whole. Likewise certain
financial products are not clearly assignable to any one risk class – Collateralized
Debt Obligations (CDO) in particular have been shown to present a lethal combination
of market, credit and liquidity risks. At the same time, national supervisors,
understandably keen to contain the risks to their own financial systems, have sought
to impose restrictions around cross-border financing and capital flows within
international banking groups.
These themes present a number of challenges to the way in which banking groups
manage their balance sheets, especially in the area of governance and oversight,
which is a major area of focus of this survey.
The objective of this survey is to provide the international banking industry with an
overview of the state of balance sheet management in banks, to identify areas for
improvement and help banks prepare for the future.
PricewaterhouseCoopers1 would like to extend our thanks to the many banks who
participated in this survey.
1 ‘PricewaterhouseCoopers’ refers to the network of member firms of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited,
each of which is a separate and independent legal entity.

The scope of balance sheet management has expanded to embrace capital management as well
as a more ‘holistic’ view of the balance sheet, although this remains a work in progress.

Overall governance
We found that the ALCO remains the key executive governance body with the responsibility for
overseeing balance sheet management activities (see Figure 2.1).
It is interesting to note that some banks have started to integrate a centralised balance sheet model also supplement the central

response to the increased attention being paid to capital management in a Basel II world and in
response to many questions from our clients regarding some of the issues covered.
