ABSTRACT
The present research was conducted to assess “New age financial products & their role in
transforming modern banking”. The objective was to study that the new age banking products
have played a major role in changing the buying/transactional behaviours in the recent times .
A sample size of 60 respondents was taken from Jammu of J&K bank customers. The tools
used for data collection were Self structured questionnaire to measure the responses. These
new age banking products were studied to review how they transformed modern Banking:
ATM, Credit Cards, Debit Cards, E-Banking and SMS Banking. The results of the study
revealed that majority of the customers have developed a habit of using more plastic money
for their day to day transaction/ home affairs. They prefer to withdraw their money through
ATM by Debit Cards which in turn reduces the footfall of customers in Banks with the
purpose of withdrawl of small amounts from their own accounts . The customers get instant
accounts update through SMS Banking. Now they have transformed themselves with the
modern Banking tools by dealing with their accounts through E-Banking, however for inter
Bank transfer they prefer to personally deposit. Flow of plastic money has increased from the
past in Jammu as such but there is still a good market available for these products which can
be done through marketing intelligence ( marketing intelligence system). It has been analysed
through our study that the new age banking products have changed modern Banking scenario.

New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
INTRODUCTION
A Bank is a financial institution licensed by a government.
Its primary activities include borrowing and lending money. Many other financial activities
were allowed over time. For e.g. Banks are important players in financial markets and offer
financial services such as investment fund.
India is turning into a major economic superpower. With remarkable growth & potential in
various sectors like insurance etc., India is turning to be a major draw for foreign companies.
Banks are the backbones of every nation. These are the cords which strengthen the nation’s
economy. Banking is now not just limited to saving money and withdrawing them when
needed, but it now has a new meaning added to it. A revolution has been brought about in the
banking with the introduction of products like ATM, Credit Cards, Debit Cards, E-Banking
and SMS Banking. This transformation was very much needed to change the face of Indian
economy. Strong Banking was the only one which reduced the intensity of recession and
saved India from major setback which it would have faced due to feeble banking chains.
The products like ATM’s-automatic teller machines are the easiest way to withdraw money
anywhere in the country at any time. They provide customers a mini Bank at their doorstep.
Credit Cards provide customers easy way to shop & withdraw money too. It’s especially a
delight for ladies who would never like to miss out a chance to buy their favourite things just
because of less cash. All these transactions take place within no time.
E-Banking provides customers, Banks online. E-ticketing is a part of E-Banking.
SMS Banking help customers to reach out to their Banks through SMS simply. The
customers can pay their Mobile bills through this facility, check their balance, get to know
their last three transactions, cheque payment status etc. All these products have facilitated
Banking and have made it quite convenient for the customers as well as for the Banks.
Financial security has now been strengthened like never before.
These new age banking products have completely transformed the modern Banking. But
these products have still not reached every person as there is lack of awareness among the
people about these products. The Bank is not able to reach out to all the sections of society
because of differences in education level, the lesser educated section is to be taught in an
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
effective and easy way. This section just cannot be ignored as it constitutes an important
section of our society. There is ample scope for these products in this section. There are many
players in the market including government owned, privately owned & semi-government
owned Banks. Some of these important players include:
The core function of the Bank in future will be about creating the association with the
customers and extending the same through excellent customers support system. To anticipate
the requirements of the customers proactively and present simple and targeted offers,Bank
can collaborate with social media sites through which the Bank can serve the customers.

PROFILE i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
COMPANY PROFILE
The origin of Jammu and Kashmir Bank limited, more commonly referred to as J&K Bank,
can be traced back to the year 1938, when it was established as the first state-owned Bank in
India. The Bank was incorporated on 1st October 1938 and it was in the following year (more
precisely on 4th July 1939) that it commenced its business, in Kashmir (India). It was initially
set up as a semi-state Bank, with its capital being contributed by state as well as the public
under the control of state government.
Jammu and Kashmir Bank had to face serious problems in 1947 i.e. At the time of
independence. With the partition of Pakistan, two out of the total ten branches of the Bank,
namely the ones in Muzaffarabad and Mirpur, fell to the other side of the line of control (now
pak occupied Kashmir), along with cash and other assets. At that point of time, in keeping
with the extended central laws of the state, J&K Bank was categorized as a government
company, as per the provisions of Indian companies act 1956. .
It was in the year 1971 that Jammu and Kashmir Bank was granted the status of a 'scheduled
Bank'. Five years later, it was declared as "a" class Bank, by the Reserve Bank of India
(RBI). As the years passed on, the Bank started achieving more and more success. Today, it
boasts of more than 500 branches across the country. It was only recently that Jammu and
Kashmir Bank became a billion dollar company. Governed by the companies act and Banking
regulation act of India, it is regulated by RBI and SEBI.
Jammu & Kashmir Bank is the only Bank in the country with majority ownership vested with
a state government – the government of Jammu & Kashmir. It is the sole Banker to the
government of Jammu & Kashmir.
J&K Bank functions as a universal Bank in Jammu & Kashmir and as a specialized Bank in
the rest of the country. It is also the only private sector Bank designated as RBI’s agent for
Banking business, and carries out the banking business of the central government, besides
collecting central taxes for CBDT.

REVIEW OF
LITERATURE
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
It is relevant to refer briefly to the previous studies and research in the related areas of the
subject to find out and to fill up the research gaps, if any. Literature on financial services can
generally be found; a number of books are available on banking related aspects as merchant
banking, loan syndication, securitization, profitability and productivity etc. but, few studies
are undertaken on the role of technology in the banking services.
Ramalingam P. (2008) studies the usage pattern of credit card holders of SBI, ICICI and ABN
banks of Kanchipuram town in Tamil Nadu. The study concludes that higher income group
and married persons utilizes the cards to the maximum mainly for impulse purchases due to
convenience and Citibank cards are more popular because of dominance in advertising. The
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
study also reveals that Masterand VISA cards are the leading card brands in India and suggests
the banks to improve overall functioning to provide satisfied credit card services.
Uppal R.K. (2008) analyzes the quality of ebanking services in the changing environment.
The sample size of bank customers is 25. The data is collected through pre-tested and well
structured questionnaire in Ludhiana, Punjab in May 2006.The study concludes that the
customers of ebanks are satisfied with the different e-channels and their services in the spread
of ebanking services. It also suggests some measures to make ebanking service more effective
in the future. The present study is mainly concerned with the Indian banking industry in
general and particular those banks that are producing service through e-channels i.e. ebanks.
Madhavankutty G. (2007) concludes that the banking system in India has attained enough
maturity and is ready to address prudential management practices as comprehensively as
possible, which an integral part of policy is making. Banking in India is poised to enter yet
another phase of reforms once the door opens further to foreign players in 2009. This requires
further improvement in technology management, human resource management and the ability
to foresee rapid changes in the financial landscape and adopt quickly. At present, there is a
huge hiatus between the top management earnings of state owned banks and private, as well
as foreign banks. Banks have to lay down sound risk management strategies and internal
capital adequacy assessment committees to ensure that they do not diverge from the
prudential requirements.
Kadir .H.A. et al; (2010) in his study tries to identify the effects of services offered by
Malaysian banks through online media and ATMs on customer satisfaction. Two analyses are
employed to fully reflect the effect of online and ATM services on their satisfaction level.
The first one was service quality model which compares the difference between satisfaction
and expectation level in order to find out which dimensions need to be improved. Second
analysis was Two-Way ANOVA analysis which tried to identify the relationship between
demographic factors and the study’s outcome. Finally, the study determined which factors
have the most effect and which factors have the least effect on customer satisfaction level.

Dixit.N. et al; (2010) in her study investigates on how the customers perceive the value of
Internet banking over the traditional way of banking. Primary data was collected from 250
respondents, through a structured questionnaire. Statistical analysis, descriptive statistics and
correlation were used to know the perceived service quality of Internet banking (IB) and level
of satisfaction between customers in India. The finding depicts many factors such as
perceived value, perceived service quality; customer satisfaction and their loyalty have
significant impact on a customer acceptance of Internet banking.
Amin Hanudin (2007) studies technology acceptance of internet banking among
undergraduate students in Malaysia based on modified version of Technology Acceptance
Model (TAM) and develops a technology acceptance model for internet banking. The results
suggest that perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU) and perceived
credibility (PC) had a significant relationship with behavioral intention. Results also suggest
that PU and PEOU had a significant relationship with computer self-efficacy. The study is
useful in providing the understanding of the TAM among undergraduate from Malaysians’
perspective.
El-Sherbini et al ;( 2007) investigated the customers' perspectives of internet banking, their
perceived importance for it, usage patterns and problems rising on its utilization. The paper
discussed the strategic implications of the research findings. Empirical data were gathered
from bank customers in Kuwait to achieve the research objectives. The results showed the
perceived importance of internet banking services by customers, current and potential use of
IB services in Kuwait and problems perceived by bank customers in using IB. The
researchers' main hypothesis tested that top five services considered relative important in
Kuwait banks were "Review account balance", "Obtain detailed transactions histories, "Open
accounts", Pay bills" and Transfer funds between own accounts".
Gan et al; (2007) conducted a research to examine consumers' choices between electronic
banking and non-electronic banking in New Zealand. Internet banking is no longer a
competitive advantage but a competitive necessity for banks. The findings in the paper show
that the output from the logistic regression indicates that the service quality, perceived risk
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
factors, user input factors, employment, and education were the dominant variables that
influence consumers' choice of electronic banking and non-electronic banking channels.
Eriksson et al; (2005) has studied the technology of internet banking in Estonia, an emerging
east European economy. A quantitative study was selected to obtain data regarding the usage
of and attitudes towards the internet as a banking channel. The results suggested that internet
bank use increases, as customers perceive it as useful. Hence, a well-designed and easy to use
internet bank may not be used if it is not perceived as useful. They concluded that the
perceived usefulness of internet banking is, for banks, a key construct for promoting
customer use. They also suggested that models of technology acceptance should be re-
formulated to focus more on the key role of the perceived usefulness of the service embedded
in the technology.
Chan and Lu (2004) considered Perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use as essential
factor regarding information technology acceptance. Perceived usefulness is the extent to
which a person believes that using a particular system will enhance his or her performance
perceived ease of use as simply describes the level of ease about using the new
product/service, while self-efficacy describes the belief of an individual in their own
Wang et al; (2003) was interested to identify the factors that determine acceptance of
Internet banking by the users. Using the TAM as a theoretical framework, this study
introduces “perceived credibility” as a new factor that reflects the user's security and privacy
concerns in the acceptance of Internet banking. The results strongly support the extended
TAM in predicting the intention of users to adopt Internet banking. It also demonstrates the
significant effect of computer self-efficacy on behavioral intention through perceived ease of
use, perceived usefulness, and perceived credibility.
Sathye (1999) analyzed the factors affecting the adoption of Internet banking by Australian
consumers. The findings suggest that security concerns and lack of awareness about Internet
banking and its benefits stand out as being the obstacles to the adoption of Internet banking in
Australia. He also suggests some of the ways to address these impediments. Further, he
i

suggests that delivery of financial services over the Internet should be a part of overall
customer service and distribution strategy. These measures could help in rapid migration of
customers to Internet banking, resulting in considerable savings in operating costs for banks.
DEBIT CARDS
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
A Debit Card (also known as a Bank card or check card) is a plastic payment card that
provides the cardholder electronic access to their Bank account(s) at a financial institution.
Some cards may bear a stored value with which a payment is made, while most relay a
message to the cardholder's Bank to withdraw funds from a payer's designated Bank account.
The card, where accepted, can be used instead of cash when making purchases. In some
cases, the primary account number is assigned exclusively for use on the internet and there is
no physical card.
Types:
1) Instant Debit Card- with the changing trends & to provide customer easy & instant
access to their accounts .Banks have introduced instant Debit Cards along with a
pin. The J&K Bank’s intant Debit Card validity is of 9 years.

i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
Advantages of a Debit Card
Easy to obtain. Once you open an account most institutions will issue you a
Debit Card upon request.
Convenience. Purchases can be made by swiping the card rather than filling
out a paper check.
Safety. You don't have to carry cash or a checkbook.
Readily accepted. When out of town (or out of the country), Debit Cards are
usually widely accepted (make sure to tell your financial institution you’re leaving
your city; to not have an interruption in service).
Disadvantages of a Debit Card
No grace period. Unlike a Credit Card, a Debit Card uses funds directly from
your checking account. A Credit Card allows you to borrow funds on credit, leaving
disposable cash in your account.
Check book balancing. Balancing your account may be difficult unless you
record every Debit Card transaction.
Less protection. Most financial institutions will try and protect their customer
from Debit Card fraud. However, a customer could potentially be liable for up to $500
on fraudulent Debit Card transactions compared with only $0 on Credit Cards. Be
sure to check with your financial institution to learn the details.
Fees. Using your Debit Card for ATM transactions may be costly if the ATM
is not affiliated with your institution.

CREDIT CARDS
Credit Card
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
A Credit Card is part of a system of payments named after the small plastic card issued to
users of the system. It is a card entitling its holder to buy goods and services based on the
holder's promise to pay for these goods and services. The issuer of the card grants a line of
credit to the consumer (or the user) from which the user can borrow money for payment to a
merchant or as a cash advance to the user.
A Credit Card is different from a charge card, where a charge card requires the balance to be
paid in full each month. In contrast, Credit Cards allow the consumers to 'revolve' their
balance, at the cost of having interest charged. Most Credit Cards are issued by local Banks
or credit unions, and are the shape and size specified by the ISO/IEC 7810 standard as ID-1.
Smart card:
Banks are adding chips to their current magnetic stripe cards to enhance security and offer
new service, called smart cards. Smart cards allow thousands of times of information storable
on magnetic stripe cards. In addition, these cards are highly secure, more reliable and
perform multiple functions. They hold a large amount of personal information, from medical
and health history to personal Banking and personal preferences.
Features of Credit Cards
It is a piece of plastic about 3.5 x 2 inches in size. Some of the features of Credit Cards are:
Logos: the card carries logos of the card association (VISA, Mastercard) as well as
that of the issuing Bank (ICICI, HDFC and so on) in the front.
Number: the card number is embossed in the front. This is usually a 16-digit number.
The first digit symbolizes the major industry. Banking industry cards usually start
with 4, 5 or 6. The first six digits identify the issuing organization. The next nine
digits denote the individual’s account number. The last digit is a check digit.
Name: also embossed on the front of the card is the name of the cardholder.
Expiry date: the date till which the card is valid is embossed on the front of the card.
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
Magnetic stripe: there is a magnetic stripe (called magistrip) running through the
length of the card on its reverse. This contains the identification information of the
card which is transmitted during a transaction.
EMV : the chip is embedded on the card and contains all information in an encrypted
format. It also comes with a personal identification number (pin). This technology has
to comply with standards developed by europay, mastercard and VISA (EMV).
CVV no.: this is a three-digit number that appears on the reverse of the card after the
16-digit card number. This is used as an additional security check, supposed to sign.
While processing a transaction, the merchant has to verify this signature.
Contact nos.: on the reverse of the card, the issuing Bank’s contact numbers are
printed. The cardholder can call these numbers for any card-related queries.
Signature: there is a space below the magnetic stripe where the cardholder is
mandatory to sign

Advantages:-
They allow you to make purchases on credit without carrying around a
lot of cash. This allows you a lot of flexibility.
They allow accurate record-keeping by consolidating purchases into a single
statement.
they allow convenient remote purchasing - ordering/shopping online or by phone.
They allow to pay for long purchase.
Under certain circumstances, they allow you to withhold payment for merchandise
which proves defective.
They are cheaper for short-term borrowing - interest is only paid on the remaining
debt, not the full loan amount.
Many cards offer additional benefits such as additional insurance cover on purchases,
cash back, air miles and discounts on holidays.
Disadvantages:
You may become an impulsive buyer and tend to overspend because of the ease of
using Credit Cards. Cards can encourage the purchasing of goods and services you
cannot really afford.
Credit Cards are a relatively expensive way of obtaining credit if you don't use them
carefully, especially because of the high interest rates and other costs.
Lost or stolen cards may result in some unwanted expense and inconvenience.
The use of a large number of Credit Cards can get you even further into debt.
Using a Credit Card, especially remotely, introduces an element of risk as the card
details may fall into the wrong hands resulting in fraudulent purchases on the card.
Fraudulent or unauthorized charges may take months to dispute, investigate, and
resolve.

Features
POS machines offer the ability to automate many tasks that have historically required human
oversight. These machines can scan Credit Cards, authorize the charge, and even accept a
digital signature. POS machines can even synchronize with the local area network of the
business, and automatically update balances and inventory with each completed transaction.
Function
The POS machine is used to improve the efficiency of retail transactions. A POS machine can
be automated, as in a self-service checkout lane in the grocery store, or it can merely augment
the actions of a checkout worker. The POS machine uses a price scanner to check the price of
an item, and a Credit Card reader, a check scanner, or a cash drawer to accept funds in an
exchange.
Considerations
The increasing level of automation in POS technology has increased the ability of a business
to process transactions quickly and accurately. Due to reliance on the technology, however,
many businesses are at a standstill when the POS machine breaks down. For this reason,
reliability is extremely important in POS technology.

CONCLUSION
I have made the analysis on the primary and the secondary data
J&K Bank has over 65% share in the Kashmir region and about 45% share in the Jammu
region and over 57% share in the whole state.100% govt. Employees are connected with the
J&K Bank.
The share of the J&K Bank in the state has fallen in the recent years .the emergence of other
private sector Banks seems to be the cause for that but still the J&K Bank has the majority of
share in the state. The financial services offered by the J&K Bank are still more preferred by
the J&K Bank.
The most glaring observation/finding of this study is that interest rate is not the only deciding
factor for the selection of the Bank.

CONCLUSION W.R.T STUDY OF NEW AGE FINANCIAL PRODUCTS AND
THEIR ROLE IN TRANSFORMING MODERN BANKING.
The new age financial products like Debit Card, Credit Card, POS, SMS Banking & E-
Banking have changed the scenario in past time . People have developed a habit of using
more plastic money for their day to day transaction/ home affairs. Small needful daliy
activities like recharging dish tv or paying electricity/Mobile bills is done through plastic
money. Also while shopping they use their cards & make best use of opportunities available
in the market. Now, they prefer to withdraw their money through ATM by Debit Cards which
in turn reduces the footfall of customers in Banks with the purpose of withdrawl of small
amounts from their own accounts. The customers get instant accounts update through SMS
Banking. It has been observed that people prefer doing online transaction through Debit
Cards; they don’t want to rely on undue credit from Bank. Now they have transformed
themselves with the modern Banking tools by dealing with their accounts through E-Banking,
however for inter Bank transfer they prefer to personally deposit but they should inculcate a
habit through E-Banking and make their transaction easy. For shopping, leisure, and basic
needs people have transformed themselves from cash to cards. They are also satisfied by the
services provided by Bank. Flow of plastic money has increased from the past in Jammu as
such but there is still a good market available for these products which can be done through
marketing intelligence ( marketing intelligence system). So, it has been analysed through our
study that the new age banking products have played a major role in changing the
buying/transactional behaviours in the recent times and thus have changed modern Banking
scenario.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
Some of the persons were not so responsive.
Possibility of error in data collection because many of investors may have not given
actual answers of my questionnaire.
Sample size is limited to 60 visitors of Jammu & Kashmir Bank.
The research is confined to a certain part of Jammu
To maintain the secrecy full information is not given by the company.
As i was involved in the sales team time was the constraint to complete the study.
The accuracy of the result is limited to the reliability of methods of investigation and
analysis of data.
i
New Age Financial Products and their role in transforming modern Banking
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Jammu and Kashmir Bank should appoint Direct Selling Agents (DSA’S), which has
almost become a necessity in modernized Banking culture to attract new businesses.
J&K Bank should devise some aggressive marketing strategies to expand its market, for
example: making association with some great cause or endorsing some celebrity to advertise
its various financial services. It can be that J&K Bank should use a local personality to
advertise its products that seems more appealing to the local people
The financial services like Credit Cards should be advertise in the various branches of the
Bank and the customers should be made aware of the services via SMS and E-mail
The process cycle should take less time to response in providing financial services to the
customers so as to increase the customer satisfaction
The J&K Bank generally pay less heed in providing loans to the salaried people in the private
sector, whereas their competitors like the ICICI Bank are. This is an avenue, which J&K
Bank should walk.
The loyal merchants should be given some more discounts so that they would not switch to
other vendors it can be like that at the merchant’s location a small card should be kept
depicting about the attractive schemes of the Bank and benefits of using Credit Cards.
The billing system of the Credit Cards should be made easy for the customers. It may be like
that the payment should be debited from the customer’s account automatically with the
customer consent.
