BANK PROFILE

OVERVIEW OF THE BANKING SECTOR

A bank is a financial institution that provides banking and other financial services to their

customers. A bank is generally understood as an institution which provides fundamental banking

services such as accepting deposits and providing loans. There are also nonbanking institutions

that provide certain banking services without meeting the legal definition of a bank. Banks are a

subset of the financial services industry.

A banking system also referred as a system provided by the bank which offers cash management

services for customers, reporting the transactions of their accounts and portfolios, through out the

day. The banking system in India, should not only be hassle free but it should be able to meet the

new challenges posed by the technology and any other external and internal factors. For the past

three decades, Indias banking system has several outstanding achievements to its credit. The

Banks are the main participants of the financial system in India. The Banking sector offers

several facilities and opportunities to their customers. All the banks safeguards the money and

valuables and provide loans, credit, and payment services, such as checking accounts, money

orders, and cashiers cheques. The banks also offer investment and insurance products. As a

variety of models for cooperation and integration among finance industries have emerged, some

of the traditional distinctions between banks, insurance companies, and securities firms have

diminished. In spite of these changes, banks continue to maintain and perform their primary

roleaccepting deposits and lending funds from these deposits.

EVOLUTION OF INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY:

The Indian banking industry has its foundations in the 18th century, and has had a varied

evolutionary experience since then. The initial banks in India were primarily traders banks

engaged only in financing activities. Banking industry in the pre-independence era developedwith the Presidency Banks, which were transformed into the Imperial Bank of India and

subsequently into the State Bank of India. The initial days of the industry saw a majority private

ownership and a highly volatile work environment. Major strides towards public ownership and

accountability were made with nationalization in 1969 and 1980 which transformed the face of

foreign players in a competitive scenario and has moved towards greater liberalization.
