Notwithstanding the provisions made under Section II below, all commission/income accrued but not received on loans that become non-performing should not be recognized as income and should be transferred to a commission/income in suspense account. Similarly, commission/interest charged to a non-performing overdraft is not considered to have been received. The bank should set aside a specific provision for the full amount of the commission transferred to the suspense account. This provision would offset the commission income receivable included under assets. These transfers to a suspense account should be made without regard to collateral, if any, and the possibility of the ultimate collection of the overdue amounts.
1.7.2
When amounts are received from borrowers in repayment of overdue commission/income or overdue principal, such amounts should first be offset against the overdue commission. This should be followed until such time as the loan is regularized and can be classified as performing, i.e. Standard or Special Mention.
