Agency for Specialised Monitoring services of Projects & Accounts

The Agency for Specialised Monitoring Services ensures compliance and safety across various industries. As we enter 2019, the Indian banking industry faces a huge distress debt crisis. Indian banks endured great distress in the debt crisis 2019, which forced them to face a huge capital infusion crisis to survive.

As a result of aggressive lending to the Infrastructure Sector in the aftermath of the Great Recession of 2008-2010 to prop up the Indian economy, as well as fraud and dial perversion of funds, the Indian Banking Sector ended up with a substantial amount of deteriorating debt due to several other factors, including fraud and diversion of funds.

The government of India, to keep a close eye on fraudulent activities and prevent the diversion of funds, has introduced the ASM Services mechanism.

What is the Agency for Specialized Monitoring?

The Agency for Specialized Monitoring(ASM) is an external agency that monitors huge credit exposures and advances made by banks/consortiums of banks. Consortiums are formed when banks come together to sanction the limits for a specific purpose. A consortium always has a lead bank with the majority of power. Whenever a consortium of banks is involved, the lead bank selects any particular agency and assigns it to monitor accounts.

As a mechanism of a bank, the Agency for Specialized Monitoring (ASM) allows it to take various measures to minimize money laundering cases and misappropriation of funds. In India, ASMs are committed to providing due diligence support. In banking, due diligence services involve conducting an in-depth investigation and analysis of the company's finances, assets, and liabilities. To ensure the deal is lucrative and safe, a bank initiates an acquisition or offers a loan to a customer before investing or finalizing a transaction.

Why the Agency for Specialised Monitoring Services?

According to the RBI, with 90% of frauds occurring in bank credit portfolios, frauds have emerged as the most serious concern in managing functional risk. The RBI took action after ever-increasing frauds, and the amount of non-performing assets in India increased drastically, introducing new reforms, such as Agencies for Specialized Monitoring services in India. The bank's cash flows are monitored and regulated by 83 agencies appointed by the Indian Banks' Association (IBA).

The asm consulting services are essential for organisations to maintain their operations' compliance, safety, and efficiency. With the increasing complexity of regulatory requirements and the growing need for real-time monitoring, ASMS provides expert support through its expertise and advanced technological solutions. The services ensure businesses can swiftly identify and address potential issues, minimising risks and avoiding costly non-compliance penalties. 

Moreover, ASMS's comprehensive reports and expert recommendations empower organisations to make informed decisions, optimise processes, and uphold a high standard of operational integrity, making them a crucial partner for any industry striving for excellence and reliability.

Purpose of the Agency for Specialized Monitoring
