Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Nexus Phase

Mr. Donal Forde:

I would break the overall target down and I would then turn, for example, I would turn to the general manager who was in charge of property and construction and I would say, "Look, our expectation is that loans will grow by X, our expectation, our expectation is that we will earn margins of Y, the group is expecting profitability of Z from us, okay". And thereafter, what we would endeavour to do is to manage the margin up. We would endeavour to grow the volume but we had to grow that volume within the credit guidelines that were set out for us.
