1. INTRODUCTION
Overview of development banking in India
The concept of development banking rose only after Second World War,
successive of the Great Depression in 1930s. The demand for reconstruction funds for the
affected nations compelled in setting up a worldwide institution for reconstructions. As a
result the IBRD was set up in 1945 as a worldwide institution for development and
reconstruction. This concept has been widened all over the world and resulted in setting
up of large number of banks around the world which co-ordinating the developmental
activities of different nations with different objectives among the world. The Narasimhan
committee had recommended to give up its direct financing functions and to perform only
the promotional and refinancing role. However it is the S.H.Khan committee, appointed
by RBI has reconted to transform the DFI (Development Finance Institution) into
universal banking institutions.
The course of development of financial institutions and markets during the post-
Independence period was largely guided by the process of planned development pursued
in India with emphasis on mobilisation of savings and channelising investment to meet
Plan Priorities. At the time of Independence in 1947, India had a fairly well-developed
banking system. The adoption of bank dominated financial development strategy was
aimed at meeting the sectoral credit needs, particularly of agriculture and industry.
Towards this end, the Reserve Bank concentrated on regulating and developing
mechanisms for institution building. The commercial banking network was expanded to
cater to the requirements of general banking and for meeting the short-term working
capital requirements of industry and agriculture. Specialized Development Financial
Institutions (DFIs) such as the IDBI, NABARD, NHB and SIDBI, etc., with majority
ownership of the Reserve Bank were set up to meet the long-term financing requirements
of industry and agriculture. To facilitate the growth of these institutions, a mechanism to
provide concessional finance to these institutions was also put in place by the Reserve
Bank.

The early history of Indian banking and finance was marked by strong
governmental regulation and control. The roots of the national system were in the State
Bank of India Act of 1955, which nationalized the former Imperial Bank of India and its
seven associate banks. In the early days, this national system operated alongside of a large
private banking system. Banks were limited in their operational flexibility by the
government’s desire to maintain employment in the banking system and were often drawn
into troublesome loans in order to further the government’s social goals.
The financial institutions in India were set up under the strong control of both
central and state Governments, and the Government utilized these institutions for the
achievements in planning and development of the nation as a whole. The all India
financial institutions can be classified under four heads according to their economic
importance that are:
The Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI) was established on July 1, 1964
under an Act of Parliament as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of India. In
16th February 1976, the ownership of IDBI was transferred to the Government of India
and it was made the principal financial institution for co-ordinating the activities of
institutions engaged in financing, promoting and developing industry in the country.
Although Government’s shareholding in the Bank came down below 100% following
2
A Project report on Banking for all
IDBI’s public issue in July 1995, the former continues to be the major shareholder
(current shareholding: 52.3%). During the four decades of its existence, IDBI has been
instrumental not only in establishing a well-developed, diversified and efficient industrial
and institutional structure but also adding a qualitative dimension to the process of
industrial development
In the country, IDBI has played a pioneering role in fulfilling its mission of
promoting industrial growth through financing of medium and long-term projects, in
consonance with national plans and priorities. Over the years, IDBI has enlarged its
basket of products and services, covering almost the entire spectrum of industrial
activities, including manufacturing and services. IDBI provides financial assistance, both
in rupee and foreign currencies, for green-field projects as also for expansion,
modernization and diversification purposes. In the wake of financial sector reforms
unveiled by the government since 1992, IDBI evolved as an array of fund and fee-based
services with a view to providing an integrated solution to meet the entire demand of
financial and corporate advisory requirements of its clients. IDBI also provides indirect
financial assistance by way of refinancing of loans extended by State-level financial
institutions and banks and by way of rediscounting of bills of exchange arising out of sale
of indigenous machinery on deferred payment terms.

2. History of Banking
Earliest banks
The first banks were probably the religious temples of the ancient world, and
were probably established sometime during the third millennium B.C. Banks probably
predated the invention of money. Deposits initially consisted of grain and later other
goods including cattle, agricultural implements, and eventually precious metals such as
gold, in the form of easy-to-carry compressed plates. Temples and palaces were the safest
places to store gold as they were constantly attended and well built. As sacred places,
temples presented an extra deterrent to would-be thieves. There are extant records of
loans from the 18th century BC in Babylon that were made by temple priests/monks to
merchants. By the time of Hammurabi's Code, banking was well enough developed to
justify the promulgation of laws governing banking operations.
The fourth century B.C. saw increased use of credit-based banking in the
Mediterranean world. In Egypt, from early times, grain had been used as a form of money
in addition to precious metals, and state granaries functioned as banks. When Egypt fell
under the rule of a Greek dynasty, the Ptolemies (330-323 B.C.), the numerous scattered
7
A Project report on Banking for all
government granaries were transformed into a network of grain banks, centralized in
Alexandria where the main accounts from all the state granary banks were recorded.
In the late third century B.C., the barren Aegean island of Delos, known for its
magnificent harbor and famous temple of Apollo, became a prominent banking center. As
in Egypt, cash transactions were replaced by real credit receipts and payments were made
based on simple instructions with accounts kept for each client. With the defeat of its
main rivals, Carthage and Corinth, by the Romans, the importance of Delos increased.
Consequently it was natural that the bank of Delos should become the model most closely
imitated by the banks of Rome.
Ancient Rome perfected the administrative aspect of banking and saw greater
regulation of financial institutions and financial practices. Charging interest on loans and
paying interest on deposits became more highly developed and competitive. The
development of Roman banks was limited, however, by the Roman preference for cash
transactions. During the reign of the Roman emperor Gallienus (260-268 CE), there was a
temporary breakdown of the Roman banking system after the banks rejected the flakes of
copper produced by his mints. With the ascent of Christianity, banking became subject to
additional restrictions, as the charging of interest was seen as immoral. After the fall of
Rome, banking was abandoned in western Europe and did not revive until the time of the
crusades.
Modern Western economic and financial history is usually traced back to the
coffee houses of London. The London Royal Exchange was established in 1565. At that
time moneychangers were already called bankers, though the term "bank" usually referred
to their offices, and did not carry the meaning it does today. There was also a hierarchical
order among professionals; at the top were the bankers who did business with heads of
state, next were the city exchanges, and at the bottom were the pawn shops or
"Lombard"'s. Some European cities today have a Lombard street where the pawn shop
was located.
8
A Project report on Banking for all
Banking offices were usually located near centers of trade, and in the late 17th
century, the largest centers for commerce were the ports of Amsterdam, London, and
Hamburg. Individuals could participate in the lucrative East India trade by purchasing
bills of credit from these banks, but the price they received for commodities was
dependent on the ships returning (which often didn't happen on time) and on the cargo
they carried (which often wasn't according to plan). The commodities market was very
volatile for this reason, and also because of the many wars that led to cargo seizures and
loss of ships.
Capitalism
Around the time of Adam Smith (1776) there was a massive growth in the
banking industry. Within the new system of ownership and investment, the State's
intervention in economic affairs was reduced and barriers to competition were removed at
all times.
Global banking
In the 1970s, a number of smaller crashes tied to the policies put in place
following the depression, resulted in deregulation and privatization of government-owned
enterprises in the 1980s, indicating that governments of industrial countries around the
world found private-sector solutions to problems of economic growth and development
preferable to state-operated, semi-socialist programs. This spurred a trend that was
already prevalent in the business sector, large companies becoming global and dealing
with customers, suppliers, manufacturing, and information centres all over the world.
Global banking and capital market services proliferated during the 1980s and
1990s as a result of a great increase in demand from companies, governments, and
financial institutions, but also because financial market conditions were buoyant and, on
9
A Project report on Banking for all
the whole, bullish. Interest rates in the United States declined from about 15% for two-
year U.S. Treasury notes to about 5% during the 20-year period, and financial assets grew
then at a rate approximately twice the rate of the world economy. Such growth rate
would have been lower, in the last twenty years, were it not for the profound effects of the
internationalization of financial markets especially U.S. Foreign investments, particularly
from Japan, who not only provided the funds to corporations in the U.S., but also helped
finance the federal government; thus, transforming the U.S. stock market by far into the
largest in the world.
10
A Project report on Banking for all
This growth and opportunity also led to an unexpected outcome: entrance into
the market of other financial intermediaries: nonbanks. Large corporate players were
beginning to find their way into the financial service community, offering competition to
established banks.
The main services offered included insurances, pension, mutual, money market
and hedge funds, loans and credits and securities. Indeed, by the end of 2001 the market
capitalisation of the world’s 15 largest financial services providers included four
nonbanks.

Bank
A banker or bank is a financial institution whose primary activity is to act as a
payment agent for customers and to borrow and lend money. It is an institution for
receiving, keeping, and lending money.[1]
The first modern bank was founded in Italy in Genoa in 1406, its name was
Banco di San Giorgio (Bank of St. George).
Many other financial activities were added over time. For example banks are
important players in financial markets and offer financial services such as investment
funds. In some countries such as Germany, banks are the primary owners of industrial
corporations while in other countries such as the United States banks are prohibited from
12
A Project report on Banking for all
owning non-financial companies. In Japan, banks are usually the nexus of cross share
holding entity known as zaibatsu. In France "Bancassurance" is highly present, as most
banks offer insurance services (and now real estate services) to their clients.
History
Banks have influenced economies and politics for centuries. Historically, the
primary purpose of a bank was to provide loans to trading companies. Banks provided
funds to allow businesses to purchase inventory, and collected those funds back with
interest when the goods were sold. For centuries, the banking industry only dealt with
businesses, not consumers. Banking services have expanded to include services directed
at individuals, and risk in these much smaller transactions are pooled.
The name bank derives from the Italian word banco "desk/bench", used
during the Renaissance by Florentines bankers, who used to make their transactions
above a desk covered by a green tablecloth. [2] However, there are traces of banking
activity even in ancient times. In fact, the word traces its origins back to the Ancient
Roman Empire, where moneylenders would set up their stalls in the middle of enclosed
courtyards called macella on a long bench called a bancu, from which the words banco
and bank are derived. As a moneychanger, the merchant at the bancu did not so much
invest money as merely convert the foreign currency into the only legal tender in Rome—
that of the Imperial Mint.
13
A Project report on Banking for all
Banks borrow money by accepting funds deposited on current account,
accepting term deposits and by issuing debt securities such as banknotes and bonds.
Banks lend money by making advances to customers on current account, by making
installment loans, and by investing in marketable debt securities and other forms of
money lending.
Banks provide almost all payment services, and a bank account is considered
indispensable by most businesses, individuals and governments. Non-banks that provide
payment services such as remittance companies are not normally considered an adequate
substitute for having a bank account.
Definition
Under English common law, a banker is defined as a person who carries on the business
of banking, which is specified as:[4]
14
A Project report on Banking for all
conducting current accounts for his customers
paying cheques drawn on him, and
collecting cheques for his customers.
Act contains a statutory definition of the term banker: banker includes a body of persons,
whether incorporated or not, who carry on the business of banking' (Section 2,
Interpretation). Although this definition seems circular, it is actually functional, because it
ensures that the legal basis for bank transactions such as cheques do not depend on how
the bank is organised or regulated.
The business of banking is in many English common law countries not defined
by statute but by common law, the definition above. In other English common law
jurisdictions there are statutory definitions of the business of banking or banking business.
When looking at these definitions it is important to keep in mind that they are defining the
business of banking for the purposes of the legislation, and not necessarily in general. In
particular, most of the definitions are from legislation that has the purposes of entry
regulating and supervising banks rather than regulating the actual business of banking.
However, in many cases the statutory definition closely mirrors the common law one.
Examples of statutory definitions:
1. receiving from the general public money on current, deposit, savings or other
similar account repayable on demand or within less than [3 months] ... or with a
period of call or notice of less than that period;
15

Since the advent of EFTPOS (Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale),
direct credit, direct debit and internet banking, the cheque has lost its primacy in most
banking systems as a payment instrument. This has lead legal theorists to suggest that the
cheque based definition should be broadened to include financial institutions that conduct
current accounts for customers and enable customers to pay and be paid by third parties,
even if they do not pay and collect cheques.
Bank statements are accounting records produced by banks under the various
accounting standards of the world. Under GAAP and IFRES there are two kinds of
accounts: debit and credit. Credit accounts are Revenue, Equity and Liabilities. Debit
Accounts are Assets and Expenses. This means you credit credit accounts to increase their
balances and you debit debit accounts to increase their balances. [7]
This also means you debit your savings account every time you deposit
money into it (and the account is normally in deficit) and you credit your credit card
account every time you spend money from it (and the account is normally in credit).
However, if you read your bank statement, it will say the opposite- that you
have credited your account when you deposit money, and you debit when you withdraw
it. If you have cash in your account you have a positive or credit balance and if you are
overdrawn it will say you have a negative or a deficit balance.
The reason for this is because the bank, and not you, has produced the bank
statement. Your savings might be your assets, but it is the bank's liability, so your savings
account is a liability account which is a credit account and should have a positive credit
16
A Project report on Banking for all
balance. Your loans are your liabilities but the bank's assets so they are debit accounts
which should have a negative balance.
Below where bank transactions, balances, credits and debits are discussed,
they are done so from the viewpoint of the account holder which is traditionally what
most people are used to seeing.
However the commercial role of banks is wider than banking, and includes:
Economic functions
1. issue of money, in the form of banknotes and current accounts subject to cheque
or payment at the customer's order. These claims on banks can act as money
because they are negotiable and/or repayable on demand, and hence valued at par
17
A Project report on Banking for all
and effectively transferable by mere delivery in the case of banknotes, or by
drawing a cheque, delivering it to the payee to bank or cash.
2. netting and settlement of payments -- banks act both as collection agent and
paying agents for customers, and participate in inter-bank clearing and settlement
systems to collect, present, be presented with, and pay payment instruments. This
enables banks to economise on reserves held for settlement of payments, since
inward and outward payments offset each other. It also enables payment flows
Law of banking
18
A Project report on Banking for all
Banking law is based on a contractual analysis of the relationship between the bank
and the customer. The definition of bank is given above, and the definition of customer is
any person for whom the bank agrees to conduct an account.
The law implies rights and obligations into this relationship as follows:
1. The bank account balance is the financial position between the bank and the
customer, when the account is in credit, the bank owes the balance to the
customer, when the account is overdrawn, the customer owes the balance to the
bank.
2. The bank engages to pay the customer's cheques up to the amount standing to the
credit of the customer's account, plus any agreed overdraft limit.
3. The bank may not pay from the customer's account without a mandate from the
customer, e.g. a cheque drawn by the customer.
4. The bank engages to promptly collect the cheques deposited to the customer's
account as the customer's agent, and to credit the proceeds to the customer's
account.
5. The bank has a right to combine the customer's accounts, since each account is
just an aspect of the same credit relationship.
6. The bank has a lien on cheques deposited to the customer's account, to the extent
that the customer is indebted to the bank.
7. The bank must not disclose the details of the transactions going through the
customer's account unless the customer consents, there is a public duty to disclose,
the bank's interests require it, or under compulsion of law.
8. The bank must not close a customer's account without reasonable notice to the
customer, because cheques are outstanding in the ordinary course of business for
several days.
These implied contractual terms may be modified by express agreement between the
customer and the bank. The statutes and regulations in force in the jurisdiction may also
modify the above terms and/or create new rights, obligations or limitations relevant to the
bank-customer relationship.
Entry regulation
19
A Project report on Banking for all
Banking regulation
Usually the definition of the business of banking for the purposes of regulation is
extended to include acceptance of deposits, even if they are not repayable to the
customer's order, however money lending, by itself, is generally not included in the
definition.
Unlike most other regulated industries, the regulator is typically also a participant
in the market, i.e. government owned bank (a central bank). Central banks also typically
have a monopoly on the business of issuing banknotes. However, in some countries this is
not the case, e.g. inthe UK the Financial Services Authority licences banks and some
commercial banks, such as the Bank of Scotland, issue their own banknotes in
competition with the Bank of England, the UK government's central bank.
Some types of entity may be partly or wholly exempt from bank licence
requirements and are regulated by separate regulators, e.g. building societies and credit
unions.
The requirements for the issue of a bank licence vary between jurisdictions but
typically include:
1. Minimum capital
2. Minimum capital ratio
3. 'Fit and Proper' requirements for the bank's controllers, owners, directors, and/or
senior officers
4. Approval of the bank's business plan as being sufficiently prudent and plausible.
Banking channels
Banks offer many different channels to access their banking and other services:
20
A Project report on Banking for all
. ATM is a computerised telecommunications device that provides a financial
institution's customers a method of financial transactions in a public space without the
need for a human clerk or bank teller. Most banks now have more ATMs than branches,
and ATMs are providing a wider range of services to a wider range of users. For example
in Hong Kong, most ATMs enable anyone to deposit cash to any customer of the bank's
account by feeding in the notes and entering the account number to be credited. Also,
most ATMs enable card holders from other banks to get their account balance and
withdraw cash, even if the card is issued by a foreign bank.
Mail is part of the postal system which itself is a system wherein written
documents typically enclosed in envelopes, and also small packages containing
other matter, are delivered to destinations around the world. This can be used to
deposit cheques and to send orders to the bank to pay money to third parties.
Banks also normally use mail to deliver periodic account statements to customers.
Telephone banking is a service provided by a financial institution which allows its
customers to perform transactions over the telephone. This normally includes bill
payments for bills from major billers (e.g. for electricity).
Online banking is a term used for performing transactions, payments etc. over the
Internet through a bank, credit union or building society's secure website.
Types of banks
Banks' activities can be divided into retail banking, dealing directly with
individuals and small businesses; business banking, providing services to mid-market
business; corporate banking, directed at large business entities; private banking, providing
wealth management services to high net worth individuals and families; and investment
banking, relating to activities on the financial markets. Most banks are profit-making,
private enterprises. However, some are owned by government, or are non-profits.
Central banks are normally government owned banks, often charged with quasi-
regulatory responsibilities, e.g. supervising commercial banks, or controlling the cash
interest rate. They generally provide liquidity to the banking system and act as the lender
of last resort in event of a crisis.
21
A Project report on Banking for all
Types of retail banks
Commercial bank: the term used for a normal bank to distinguish it from an
investment bank. After the Great Depression, the U.S. Congress required that
banks only engage in banking activities, whereas investment banks were limited to
capital market activities. Since the two no longer have to be under separate
ownership, some use the term "commercial bank" to refer to a bank or a division
of a bank that mostly deals with deposits and loans from corporations or large
businesses.
Community Banks: locally operated financial institutions that empower
employees to make local decisions to serve their customers and the partners
Community development banks: regulated banks that provide financial services
and credit to under-served markets or populations.
Postal savings banks: savings banks associated with national postal systems.
Private banks: manage the assets of high net worth individuals.
Offshore banks: banks located in jurisdictions with low taxation and regulation.
Many offshore banks are essentially private banks.
Savings bank: in Europe, savings banks take their roots in the 19th or sometimes
even 18th century. Their original objective was to provide easily accessible
savings products to all strata of the population. In some countries, savings banks
were created on public initiative, while in others socially committed individuals
created foundations to put in place the necessary infrastructure. Nowadays,
European savings banks have kept their focus on retail banking: payments,
savings products,
credits and insurances for individuals or small and medium-sized enterprises.
Apart from this retail focus, they also differ from commercial banks by their
22
A Project report on Banking for all
broadly decentralised distribution network, providing local and regional outreach
and by their socially responsible approach to business and society.
Building societies and Landesbanks: conduct retail banking.
Ethical banks: banks that prioritize the transparency of all operations and make
only what they consider to be socially-responsible investments.
Islamic banks: Banks that transact according to Islamic principles.
Investment banks "underwrite" (guarantee the sale of) stock and bond issues, trade
for their own accounts, make markets, and advise corporations on capital markets
activities such as mergers and acquisitions.
Merchant banks were traditionally banks which engaged in trade finance. The
modern definition, however, refers to banks which provide capital to firms in the
form of shares rather than loans. Unlike venture capital firms, they tend not to
invest in new companies.
Both combined
23
A Project report on Banking for all
Islamic banking
Islamic banks adhere to the concepts of Islamic law. Islamic banking revolves
around several well established concepts which are based on Islamic canons.
Since the concept of interest is forbidden in Islam, all banking activities must
avoid interest. Instead of interest, the bank earns profit (mark-up) and fees on
financing facilities that it extends to the customers.
Worldwide assets of the largest 1,000 banks grew 16.3% in 2006/2007 to reach a
record $74.2 trillion. This follows a 5.4% increase in the previous year. EU banks held the
largest share, 53%, up from 43% a decade earlier. The growth in Europe’s share was
mostly at the expense of Japanese banks whose share more than halved during this period
from 21% to 10%. The share of US banks remained relatively stable at around 14%. Most
of the remainder was from other Asian and European countries. .[8]
The US had by far the most banks (7,540 at end-2005) and branches (75,000) in the
world. The large number of banks in the US is an indicator of its geography and
regulatory structure, resulting in a large number of small to medium sized institutions in
its banking system. Japan had 129 banks and 12,000 branches. In 2004, Germany, France,
and Italy had more than 30,000 branches each—more than double the 15,000 branches in
the UK.[9]
Bank crisis
Banks are susceptible to many forms of risk which have triggered occasional
systemic crises. Risks include liquidity risk (the risk that many depositors will request
withdrawals beyond available funds), credit risk (the risk that those who owe money to
the bank will not repay), and interest rate risk (the risk that the bank will become
24
A Project report on Banking for all
unprofitable if rising interest rates force it to pay relatively more on its deposits than it
receives on its loans), among others.
Banking crises have developed many times throughout history when one or more
risks materialize for a banking sector as a whole. Prominent examples include the U.S.
[10]
Savings and Loan crisis in 1980s and early 1990s the Japanese banking crisis during
the 1990s, the bank run that occurred during the Great Depression, and the recent
liquidation by the central Bank of Nigeria, where about 25 banks were liquidated.
Numerous banks have suffered as a result of the Subprime mortgage crisis, which
has occurred on a global scale, affecting investmnent banks such as Lehman Brothers in
the USA and retail banks such as Northern Rock in the UK. In January 2009, several
major UK banks such as Lloyds TSB and Barclays Bank, suffered severe falls in their
London stock exchange share prices as a result of a drop in investor confidence of the true
asset values of those banks.
The banking industry is a highly regulated industry with detailed and focused
regulators. All banks with FDIC-insured deposits have the FDIC as a regulator; however,
for examinations,[clarification needed]
the Federal Reserve is the primary federal regulator for
Fed-member state banks; the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) is the
primary federal regulator for national banks; and the Office of Thrift Supervision, or
OTS, is the primary federal regulator for thrifts. State non-member banks are examined
by the state agencies as well as the FDIC. National banks have one primary regulator—
the OCC.
Each regulatory agency has their own set of rules and regulations to which banks and
thrifts must adhere.
25
A Project report on Banking for all
has resulted in a greater degree of regulatory consistency between the agencies, the rules
and regulations are constantly changing.
The impact of these changes is that banks are receiving less hands-on
assessment by the regulators, less time spent with each institution, and the potential for
more problems slipping through the cracks, potentially resulting in an overall increase in
bank failures across the United States. The changing economic environment has a
significant impact on banks and thrifts as they struggle to effectively manage their interest
rate spread in the face of low rates on loans, rate competition for deposits and the general
market changes, industry trends and economic fluctuations. It has been a challenge for
banks to effectively set their growth strategies with the recent economic market. A rising
interest rate environment may seem to help financial institutions, but the effect of the
changes on consumers and businesses is not predictable and the challenge remains for
banks to grow and effectively manage the spread to generate a return to their
shareholders.
The management of the banks’ asset portfolios also remains a challenge in today’s
economic environment. Loans are a bank’s primary asset category and when loan quality
becomes suspect, the foundation of a bank is shaken to the core. While always an issue
for banks, declining asset quality has become a big problem for financial institutions.
There are several reasons for this, one of which is the lax attitude some banks have
adopted because of the years of “good times.” The potential for this is exacerbated by the
reduction in the regulatory oversight of banks and in some cases depth of management.
Problems are more likely to go undetected, resulting in a significant impact on the bank
when they are recognized. In addition, banks, like any business, struggle to cut costs and
have consequently eliminated certain expenses, such as adequate employee training
programs.
26
A Project report on Banking for all
Banks also face a host of other challenges such as aging ownership groups. Across
the country, many banks’ management teams and board of directors are aging. Banks also
face ongoing pressure by shareholders, both public and private, to achieve earnings and
growth projections. Regulators place added pressure on banks to manage the various
categories of risk. Banking is also an extremely competitive industry. Competing in the
financial services industry has become tougher with the entrance of such players as
insurance agencies, credit unions, check cashing services, credit card companies, etc.
As a reaction, banks have developed their activities in financial instruments,
through financial market operations such as brokerage and trading and become big
players in such activities.
Profitability
A bank generates a profit from the differential between the level of interest it pays
for deposits and other sources of funds, and the level of interest it charges in its lending
activities. This difference is referred to as the spread between the cost of funds and the
loan interest rate. Historically, profitability from lending activities has been cyclical and
dependent on the needs and strengths of loan customers. In recent history, investors have
demanded a more stable revenue stream and banks have therefore placed more emphasis
on transaction fees, primarily loan fees but also including service charges on an array of
deposit activities and ancillary services (international banking, foreign exchange,
insurance, investments, wire transfers, etc.). Lending activities, however, still provide the
bulk of a commercial bank's income.
In the past 10 years American banks have taken many measures to ensure
that they remain profitable while responding to increasingly changing market conditions.
First, this includes the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which allows banks again to merge with
investment and insurance houses. Merging banking, investment, and insurance functions
allows traditional banks to respond to increasing consumer demands for "one-stop
shopping" by enabling cross-selling of products (which, the banks hope, will also increase
profitability). Second, they have expanded the use of risk-based pricing from business
lending to consumer lending, which means charging higher interest rates to those
27
A Project report on Banking for all
customers that are considered to be a higher credit risk and thus increased chance of
default on loans.
This helps to offset the losses from bad loans, lowers the price of loans to those
who have better credit histories, and offers credit products to high risk customers who
would otherwise been denied credit. Third, they have sought to increase the methods of
payment processing available to the general public and business clients. These products
include debit cards, pre-paid cards, smart cards, and credit cards.

IDBI Profile
Industrial Development Bank of India Ltd.
Recent developments
To meet emerging challenges and to keep up with reforms in financial sector,
IDBI has taken steps to reshape its role from a development finance institution to a
commercial institution. With the Industrial Development Bank (Transfer of Undertaking
and Repeal) Act, 2003, IDBI attained the status of a limited company viz. "Industrial
Development Bank of India Limited" (IDBIL). Subsequently, the Central Government
notified October 1, 2004 as the 'Appointed Date' and RBI issued the requisite notification
on September 30, 2004 incorporating IDBI Ltd. as a 'scheduled bank' under the RBI Act,
1934. Consequently, IDBI, the erstwhile Development Financial Institution of the
29
A Project report on Banking for all
country, formally entered the portals of banking business as IDBIL from October 1, 2004,
over and above the business currently being transacted.
The Private banking arm, idbi bank was merged into IDBI. The IDBI BANK
was one of the fastest growing companies in India. The Banking arm was technologically
driven, customer focussed entity. IDBI got the platform of its private banking arm to
reform itself into a competitive entity.
The concept of development banking rose only after Second World War, successive
of the Great Depression in 1930s. The demand for reconstruction funds for the affected
nations compelled in setting up a worldwide institution for reconstructions. As a result the
IBRD was set up in 1945 as a worldwide institution for development and reconstruction.
This concept has been widened all over the world and resulted in setting up of large
number of banks around the world which coordinating the developmental activities of
different nations with different objectives among the world. The Narashimam committee
had recommended to give up its direct financing functions and to perform only the
promotional and refinancing role. However it is the S.H.Khan committee appointed by
RBI has reconted to transform the DFI (development finance institution) into universal
bankings institutions.
The course of development of financial institutions and markets during the post-
Independence period was largely guided by the process of planned development pursued
in India with emphasis on mobilisation of savings and channelising investment to meet
Plan priorities. At the time of Independence in 1947, India had a fairly well-developed
banking system. The adoption of bank dominated financial development strategy was
aimed at meeting the sectoral credit needs, particularly of agriculture and industry.
Towards this end, the Reserve Bank concentrated on regulating and developing
mechanisms for institution building. The commercial banking network was expanded to
cater to the requirements of general banking and for meeting the short-term working
capital requirements of industry and agriculture. Specialised development financial
institutions (DFIs) such as the IDBI, NABARD, NHB and SIDBI, etc., with majority
ownership of the Reserve Bank were set up to meet the long-term financing requirements
30
A Project report on Banking for all
of industry and agriculture. To facilitate the growth of these institutions, a mechanism to
provide concessional finance to these institutions was also put in place by the Reserve
Bank.
The early history of Indian banking and finance was marked by strong
governmental regulation and control. The roots of the national system were in the State
Bank of India Act of 1955, which nationalized the former Imperial Bank of India and its
seven associate banks. In the early days, this national system operated alongside of a large
private banking system. Banks were limited in their operational flexibility by the
government’s desire to maintain employment in the banking system and were often drawn
into troublesome loans in order to further the government’s social goals.
The financial institutions in India were set up under the strong control of both
central and state Governments, and the Government utilized these institutions for the
achievements in planning and development of the nation as a whole. The all India
financial institutions can be classified under four heads according to their economic
importance that are:
31
A Project report on Banking for all
of India and it was made the principal financial institution for coordinating the activities
of institutions engaged in financing, promoting and developing industry in the country.
Although Government shareholding in the Bank came down below 100% following
IDBI’s public issue in July 1995, the former continues to be the major shareholder
(current shareholding: 52.3%). During the four decades of its existence, IDBI has been
instrumental not only in establishing a well-developed, diversified and efficient industrial
and institutional structure but also adding a qualitative dimension to the process of
industrial development in the country. IDBI has played a pioneering role in fulfilling its
mission of promoting industrial growth through financing of medium and long-term
projects, in consonance with national plans and priorities. Over the years, IDBI has
enlarged its basket of products and services, covering almost the entire spectrum
of industrial activities, including manufacturing and services. IDBI provides financial
assistance, both in rupee and foreign currencies, for green-field projects as also for
expansion, modernisation and diversification purposes. In the wake of financial sector
reforms unveiled by the government since 1992, IDBI evolved an array of fund and fee-
based services with a view to providing an integrated solution to meet the entire demand
of financial and corporate advisory requirements of its clients. IDBI also provides indirect
financial assistance by way of refinancing of loans extended by State-level financial
institutions and banks and by way of rediscounting of bills of exchange arising out of sale
of indigenous machinery on deferred payment terms.
IDBI has played a pioneering role, particularly in the pre-reform era (1964-
91),in catalyzing broad based industrial development in the country in keeping with its
Government-ordained ‘development banking’ charter. In pursuance of this mandate,
IDBI’s activities transcended the confines of pure long-term lending to industry and
encompassed, among others, balanced industrial growth through development of
backward areas, modernisation of specific industries, employment generation,
entrepreneurship development along with support services for creating a deep and vibrant
domestic capital market, including development of apposite institutional framework.
Narasimam committee recommends that IDBI should give up its direct financing
functions and concentrate only in promotional and refinancing role. But this
32
A Project report on Banking for all
recommendation was rejected by the government. Latter RBI constituted a committee
under the chairmanship of S.H.Khan to examine the concept of development financing in
the changed global challenges. This committee is the first to recommend the concept of
universal banking. The committee wanted to the development financial institution to
diversify its activity. It recommended to harmonise the role of development financing and
banking activities by getting away from the conventional distinction between commercial
banking and developmental banking.
subsidiary has since been renamed ‘IDBI Home finance Limited’. In view of the signal
changes in the operating environment, following initiation of reforms since the early
nineties, Government of India has decided to transform IDBI into a commercial bank
without eschewing its secular development finance obligations. The migration to the new
business model of commercial banking, with its gateway to low-cost current, savings
bank deposits, would help overcome most of the limitations of the current business model
of development finance while simultaneously enabling it to diversify its client/ asset base.
Towards this end, the IDB (Transfer of Undertaking and Repeal) Act 2003 was passed by
Parliament in December 2003. The Act provides for repeal of IDBI Act, corporatisation of
IDBI (with majority Government holding; current share: 58.47%) and transformation into
a commercial bank. The provisions of the Act have come into force from July 2, 2004 in
terms of a Government Notification to this effect. The Notification facilitated formation,
incorporation and registration of Industrial Development Bank of India Ltd. as a company
under the Companies Act, 1956 and a deemed Banking Company under the Banking
Regulation Act 1949 and helped in obtaining requisite regulatory and statutory clearances,
including those from RBI. IDBI would commence banking business in accordance with
the provisions of the new Act in addition to the business being transacted under IDBI Act,
1964 from October 1, 2004, the ‘Appointed Date’ notified by the Central Government.
IDBI has firmed up the infrastructure, technology platform and reorientation of its human
capital to achieve a smooth transition.

IDBI Bank, with which the parent IDBI was merged, was a vibrant new
generation Bank. The Pvt Bank was the fastest growing banking company in India. The
bank was pioneer in adapting to policy of first mover in tier 2 cities. The Bank also had
the least NPA and the highest productivity per employee in the banking industry.
On July 29, 2004, the Board of Directors of IDBI and IDBI Bank accorded
in principle approval to the merger of IDBI Bank with the Industrial Development Bank
of India Ltd. to be formed incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956 pursuant to the
IDB (Transfer of Undertaking and Repeal) Act, 2003 (53 of 2003), subject to the approval
of shareholders and other regulatory and statutory approvals. A mutually gainful
proposition with positive implications for all stakeholders and clients, the merger process
is expected to be completed during the current financial year ending March 31, 2005.
The immediate fall out of the merger of IDBI and idbi bank was the exit of
employees of idbi bank. The cultures in the two organizations have taken its toll. The
IDBI BANK now is in a growing fold. With its retail banking arm expanding further after
the merger of United western Bank.
IDBI would continue to provide the extant products and services as part of
its development finance role even after its conversion into a banking company. In
addition, the new entity would also provide an array of wholesale and retail banking
products, designed to suit the specific needs cash flow requirements of corporates and
individuals. In particular, IDBI would leverage the strong corporate relationships built up
over the years to offer customised and total financial solutions for all corporate business
needs, single-window appraisal for term loans and working capital finance, strategic
advisory and “hand-holding” support at the implementation phase of projects, among
others.

The industrial investment bank of India is one of oldest banks in India. The

sick industrial companies, was reconstituted as Industrial Reconstruction Bank of India in
1985 under the IRBI Act, 1984. With a view to converting the institution into a full-
fledged development financial institution, IRBI was incorporated under the Companies
Act, 1956, as Industrial Investment Bank of India Ltd. (IIBI) in March 1997. IIBI offers a
wide range of products and services, including term loan assistance for project finance,

SUGGESTIONS
93
A Project report on Banking for all
Based on the market research conducted on “IDBI Services” with the customers
of various banks in and around Chikmaglur city, we could derive some of the following
significant suggestions ;-
As the market share of the IDBI bank is less in Chikmaglur, because of absence
of the branch in the city, there is an urgent need to open a branch here.
As a premier development bank, it should play a major role in assisting industrial
development in and around Chikmaglur.
Customers are awaiting for world class banking services as it disclosed it’s
decision to open a branch very shortly in the city.
Most of the customers suggest that it should look to provide convenient loan
facilities to them.
There are quiet a number of people who expect some significant assistance to the
coffee plantations in the district.
Many suggest that the bank should start it’s operations as soon as possible.
Suggestions reveal that it should look at rapidly expanding it’s branches inorder
to provide convincing services to it’s customers.
The bank is still lagging behind in reaching rural customers as there are few
branches in the rural areas.
It should look to provide various loans at lowest possible interest rates inorder to
acquire a good market share in the future.
Many suggest that simplification of issuance of loans and the documents’
requirements would serve mutual benefits.
Many feel that the need of the hour is to open the branch in the city as some of it’s
customers have their accounts in the neighbouring cities.
Another important thing would be that it should offer various services to all the
classes of the region to acquire a good share in the region.
CONCLUSION
94
A Project report on Banking for all
As a premier industrial development bank in India, IDBI has an important role to
play both as an development and commercial bank in the Chikmaglur region. Eventhough
the major hurting factor for it’s market share is the absence of a branch in the city, it will
be nullified as it is going to open a new branch in the city very soon. It’s experience in all
kinds of banking and it’s value added services such as insurance and other latest services
can provide a good market share in the future .
Further the easing of loan procedures and securities for loan would help as
found in the research. Loans at low interest rates would please the customers. Special
loans to coffee planters and the coffee industry would be welcomed.
So people in this region are expecting some firm assistance from the bank
both as an development bank and as a commercial bank. It has very good opportunity to
provide some worldclass services in the region. Moreover it will have to look at the
industrial and overall development of the region.
