There has been several goals in portfolio management such as the maximizing the value of the portfolio, seeking the right balance of projects, ensuring that the bank’s portfolio is strategically aligned, and making sure SCB don’t have too many projects for its limited resources and lots of tools to use for measuring portfolio as some quantitative/qualitative, others graphical, strategic as such being designed to help the bank chose the right portfolio of projects. According to  and  (2006), there can be presence of “optimal portfolio management policies for an investor who must pay transaction cost equal to a fixed traction of the portfolio value each time he trades, showing that the optimal policy reduces to solving single stopping time problem as when there is risky stock, there can be system of equations whose solution determines the optimal rule and observe the general qualitative results” ().  Thus, portfolio management is fundamental to new product success but as easy as it seems not only must SCB seek to maximize the value of your portfolio, but the development projects in the portfolio must be appropriately balanced, there must be the right numbers of finances and other related aspects, portfolio management must be strategically aligned. No one portfolio model can deliver on the goals, so SCB may integrate multiple methods to select effective projects. SCB is known and trusted for having high standards of corporate responsibility as the bank is committed to building sustainable business through social inclusion, environmental protection and good governance, by combining the global capabilities with deep local knowledge, SCB develop innovative products and services to meet the diverse and ever-changing needs of individual, corporate and institutional customers in some of the world’s most exciting and dynamic markets ( 2007).

Financial strength was used in describing certain extent to which an entity is constrained by its financial situation in pursuing its strategic goals or policies. An entity is financially strong when it is relatively unconstrained and weak when financial constraints are binding on policy choices. The financial strength of the banks is intimately linked to the successful management of the enterprise (2005).
