A many major bone’s are Interest threat, market threat, liquidity threat, credit threat, currency threat, counterparty threat and functional threat. Thus, to avoid similar risks disclosure practices have come ineluctable in recent times. In utmost countries, the enactment relating to banks makes it mandatory that banks should have a robust threat operation function. Still, lack of interest towards the degree of commercial disclosures and translucency followed by banking companies led the global economy to face fiscal extremity, fiscal dishonors and frauds each over the world. These fiscal heads and catastrophe have shaken the confidence of the stakeholders on the banking system.
