practices in order to meet the challenges from other competitive banks. It is aimed to bring out
those innovative and best human resource practices developed and found successful that made
them more competitive in the present competitive banking environment in the various human
resource areas where they want to gain competitive advantage over the rival banks in order to
attract and retain the talents and to differentiate their human resources practice and other servicesthan the competitive banks.
A major challenge for many banks will be to develop the special competencies and skills
for credit appraisal and risk management in an environment of deregulation and openness. As
emphasized by Dr. Bimal Jalan, Governor of Reserve Bank of India, the recommendations of thesecond Narasimhan Committee could provide useful guidance to banks particularly in recruiting
skilled manpower from the open market, including lateral induction of experts and deployment
of existing staff in new businesses and activities after suitable training. In this context, theimportance of building and reinforcing corporate vision and culture that fosters creativity and
recognizes talent and merit cannot be relegated to the behind. .
The Human Resource Development department has to play a more proactive role in
shaping the employees to fight out the challenges. The banks not only have to make plans and
policies and devise strategies, the actual functionaries have to show willingness, competence andeffectiveness in executing the said policies and strategies. In commercial organizations like
banks, HRD departments have the advantages of not being excessively burdened with dayto
day problems of running the banks or ensuring profitability of individual transactions. They arein positions to take strategic and long term view of the competitive advantage of the human
resources as well as identify areas of professional weaknesses to rectify well before any damagetakes place in the organization. Indeed they have the golden opportunity to implement the
desired human resources policies to improve and strengthen the organization to withstand the
onslaught of fierce competition in future.
Based on this perspective, an attempt has been made to highlight the factors which, if
implemented, may lead to substantial transformation of banks to compete in an environment ofrisks and uncertainty.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Banking is a prime mover in the economic development of a nation and research is soessential to improve its working results. The management without any right policy is like
building a house on sand. It means an effective management always needs a thorough and
continuous search into the nature of the reasons for, and the consequences of organisation. In line
with this, some related earlier studies conducted by individuals and institutions are reviewed tohave an in-depth insight into the problem and exploring the reformation of banking policy. An
overall view of a few studies is presented below.
Branch expansion is a thrust for economic development. Sharma said: The expansion of
banking facilities was uneven and lopsided, and banks were concentrating their operations inmetropolitan cities and towns. A fairly large number of rural and semi urban centres with
