1.2.7 Block Amount Restoration on Utilization Reversal

This topic describes about block amount restoration on utilization reversal.

The "Reversal" event is used to correct errors or to negate transactions that were posted in error, posted with incorrect values, or require cancellation due to business or operational reasons. It ensures that system records and calculations remain accurate and reflect the true position as per actual business events.

Automatically reploughing the block after utilization reversal ensures that the original reserved amount remains protected for its intended purpose, prevents premature re-availability of credit, reduces operational risk, and maintains control and compliance across all subsequent business processes and exposures.

User can restore the original blocked amount if a utilization (initially processed using a block reference) is later reversed (through a "Reverse" or "E-reverse" or “Undo” action), instead of simply increasing the available amount. This reinstates the block to its original state, as though the utilization against the block had not occurred.

Sample Example: Reverse

Table 1-108 Reverse

Event Blocked Amount Utilized Amount Available Amount Key System Actions
Facility Created 0 0 25,000 Create Facility
Block (B1) Applied 10,000 0 15,000 Create block of 10,000, reduce available
NEW Utilization (vs. block B1) 0 10,000 15,000 Move 10,000 from block to utilization
Utilization Reversed (B1) 10,000 0 15,000 Utilization reduced, block reinstated

Note:

If utilization was not linked to a block (block reference not given), only available amount is impacted and block amount remains unchanged.
Sample Example: E-Reverse

Table 1-109 E-Reverse

Event Blocked Amount Utilized Amount Available Amount Key System Actions
Revolving Facility Created 0 0 25,000 Create Facility
Block (B1) Applied 10,000 0 15,000 Create block of 10,000, reduce available
NEW Utilization (vs. block B1) 5000 5000 15,000 Move 5000 from block to utilization
Utilization INCREASE (3000) (vs. block B1) 2000 8000 15,000 Move an additional 3000 from block to utilization. Total Utilization (8000)
Utilization DECREASE (1000) (vs. block B1) 2000 7000 16,000 Reduce the utilized amount and increase the available amount by 1000
Utilization ‘INCREASE’ E-Reversed (B1) 5000 4000 16,000 Utilization reduced, block reinstated to extent of that during INCREASE action

Note:

Using "E-reverse" for a "Decrease" utilization does not affect block or available - only changes the outstanding utilized value.
Sample Example: UNDO

Table 1-110 UNDO

Event Blocked Amount Utilized Amount Available Amount Key System Actions
Revolving Facility Created 0 0 25,000 Create Facility
Block (B1) Applied 10,000 0 15,000 Create block of 10,000, reduce available
NEW Utilization (vs. block B1) 5000 5000 15,000 Move 5000 from block to utilization
Utilization INCREASE (3000) (vs. block B1) 2000 8000 15,000 Move an additional 3000 from block to utilization. Total Utilization (8000)
Utilization UNDO 5000 5000 15,000 Utilization reduced, block reinstated to extent of that during INCREASE action
