  • Assessment of Auction Mechanism
    Additional Financing of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises Line of Credit Project (RRP SRI 49273-002) ASSESSMENT OF AUCTION MECHANISM A. Introduction 1. The original project introduced an auction to allocate the funds among the participating banks. The auctions created a framework where banks made a disbursement commitment and incurred a financial penalty if that disbursement was not achieved. 2. The project conducted two auctions. In the first, National Development Bank (NDB) won the entire $12.5 million available. In the second, the funds were evenly divided among three institutions. 3. The project had planned to review the auction mechanism after the second auction, at which time Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the government would decide whether to continue with the auction or to introduce a more conventional allocation system. Following this review, the government requested the latter so that more banks could participate. 4. Although appreciating the government’s reasons for requesting the cancellation, the project team was overall pleased with the auction’s performance, and the objective of this appendix is to capture any lessons that could be applied to future auction systems. B. Lessons 1. Dominance by a Subset of Banks 5. The government was correct that the auction limited participation. After NDB won all the funds during the first auction, ADB and the government agreed to cap the amount any bank could win to a third of available funds. 6. Despite these changes, the bidding pattern of the first two auctions suggested that a subset of banks would dominate the auctions. Indeed, the same four banks finished in the top five of both rounds (Table 1).

  • NDB 2020 PWM+Marketupdate Nov
    ASSET PRIVATE MY WEALTH MANAGEMENT WEALTH MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT MARKET UPDATE AND FUND REVIEW 2020 NOVEMBER Click here for download MARKET BRIEF BY NDB WEALTH The 2021 budget focused around post-Covid-19 growth, with strong support to local manufacturing, with the BUDGET 2021 aim of curbing imports whilst supporting the export sector. Consumer taxes remained broadly unchanged in an effort to stimulate growth amidst low economic activity. Further, the government's public investment drive is expected to be the largest in five years. While no material change to the revenue base is a positive factor to support growth, budget 2021 remains ambitious, expecting investment driven growth to bridge the revenue gap in the face of Covid-19 and external debt challenges. Inflation as measured by the CCPI (2013=100), edged up to 4.1% in November on a year-on-year basis from INFLATION PICKS UP the previous months’ 4.00% primarily owing to increases in food prices. During the month, the index was up 0.4% due to food prices increasing by 1.2% and non-food prices rising 0.2%. We believe the Central Bank will be able to manage inflation at mid-single digit levels in the short term. Reversing its rising trend, the Sri Lankan Rupee depreciated against the USD in November by 0.37% to close RUPEE FALLS the month at LKR 184.96 leading to an overall depreciation of 1.80% on a year-to-date basis. The Central Bank was a buyer of foreign exchange in the market in October amounting to USD 47.5 mn, whilst gross official reserves stood at approx.
