With the recent addition of insurance, the proposition of ICICI Bank is now fulfilled. Going
forward, the challenge for ICICI will be to continue innovating to improve market shares and
maintain its competitive edge. In this endeavour, ICICI will continue to benchmark with global
best practices to ensure optimum utilization of its resources and the finest exposure to its work
force. The speed with which it has been able to transform the organization and successfullystart so many new businesses is almost singularly owing to the skills, enterprise and the depth
of its human resources.
ICICI Bank is committed to enriching this valuable resource which in turn, will allow it to bring
innovative practices to the world of financial services in India. With technology playing the key
role mainly.
The vision is to develop ICICI Bank into an organization that is empowered by bright and
talented individuals, working in teams and riding on the backbone of world class technology.
History
The ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an Indian financial institution,
and was its wholly owned subsidiary. ICICI's shareholding in ICICI Bank was reduced to 46%through a public offering of shares in India in fiscal year 1998, an equity offering in the form of
8

7/29/2019 Share Market in Icici

ADRs listed on the NYSE in fiscal year 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition of Bank of Madura
Limited in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal year 2001, and secondary market sales by ICICI
to institutional investors in fiscal year 2001 and fiscal year 2002. ICICI was formed in year 1955
at the initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and representatives of Indian
industry. The principal objective was to create a development financial institution for providingthe medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, the ICICI
transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only single project
finance to a diversified financial services group offering a wide variety of products and services,
both directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, the
ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial institution from non-Japan
Asia to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the emerging
competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the move towards universal banking
scenario, the managements of the ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the merger of
ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both of the entities, and
would create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy. The
merger would enhance value for the ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to
low-cost deposits, much greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the ability to
participate in the payments system and provide transaction-banking services. The merger would
enhance value for the ICICI Bank shareholders through a large capital base and scale of
operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate relationships built up over five
decades, entry into new business segments, higher market share in various business segments,
particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast talent pool of the ICICI and its number of
subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of the ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the
merger of ICICI and two of its wholly owned retail finance subsidiaries, the ICICI Personal
Financial Services Limited and the ICICI Capital Services Limited, with the ICICI Bank. The
merger was approved by shareholders of the ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the High
Court of Gujarat at Ahmadabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai
and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent to the merger, the ICICI group's
financing and banking operations, both the wholesale and retail, have been integrated in asingle i.e. the ICICI Bank.

MARKETING STRATEGIES
Market Strategy of ICICI Bank:
10
-
7/29/2019 Share Market in Icici
11/77
ICICI Bank uses the concept of Universal Banking.
Universal Banking Concept:
In universal banking, large banks operate extensively in networks of branches, provide many
different services, hold several claims on firms (including equity and debt), and participate
directly in the corporate governance of firms that rely on the banks for funding or as insurance
underwriters. It means the ability to offer i.e. sell and underwrite all the types of products and
services to any set of clients, either through a single or through a group of companies. The
practice of Universal Banking varies across several countries. India faces a very high regulatory
burden although now a conglomerate structure of the universal banking has already been
permitted .Many international players like ABN-AMRO, Citigroup, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, JP
Morgan Chase, Lehman Brothers have realized the benefits of Universal Banking. The ICICIBank has also joined these international players. The ICICI Bank functions as a universal bank
through itself and its associate companies in the areas of corporate finance, commercial
banking, personal banking, investment banking, asset management, investor services and
insurance. The Universal Banking provides competitive advantage in the current scenario
through large product suite, diversified resource base, Economies of scale and scope,
Optimization of human and financial capital.
In a span of just four years, the ICICI Bank has emerged as a consumer banking behemoth.
With a retail book of over Rs 56,000 crores (Rs 560 billion) and a market share that is the envy
of competition -- it has a share of over 30 per cent The ICICI Bank today has reached a
commanding position.
The bank boasts of the widest integrated technology platform in the country and only a fourth of
its business takes place at its branches and subsidiaries.
Its legacy of non-performing assets (NPAs) -- for which it has been rated below its peers earlier
-- is now almost history with net NPLs (non-performing loans) down to 2 per cent.
Armed with a much stronger balance sheet, the ICICI Bank is aggressively foraying into
overseas markets and also has an eye on the rural India.
Rural India is an opportunity, somewhat premature, but in the next 12-18 months the banks
strategy will be seen there. Bank is looking at new agri lending as something that is directed; it's
a viable business proposition, but it has to be driven very carefully. The bank can't have
branches there because that is not workable in terms of costs.
The solution to this problem is to partner with the micro-credit institutions, corporate providinginputs or buying products from the farmer and self-help groups.

Major Steps Taken:
In 2001 ICICI acquired theBank of Madura(est. In1943). The Bank of Madura was a Chettiar
bank, and had acquired the Chettinad Mercantile Bank(est. In1933) and the Illanji Bank (est. in
1904) in the 1960s.
In 2007 ICICI amalgamated the Sangli Bank, which was headquartered in Sangli, in
MaharashtraState, and which had 158 branches in Maharashtra state and another 31 in
Karnataka State. ICICI also received permission from the government ofQatarto open a branch
inDohaand from the US Federal Reserve to open a branch in New Yorkcity. ICICI Bank
Eurasia opened a second branch in St. Petersburg.
In 2008 the ICICI Bank launched iMobile, a comprehensive Mobile banking solution. iMobile is
considered to be a breakthrough innovation in the Indian Banking which allows a customer to do
all possible transactions through a GPRS-enabled mobile phone easily and conveniently.
Global Market Strategy:
The global opportunity spectrum is changing dramatically, and in the next three years, the
banks global business will contribute one-third of the book top line and bottom-line. Today it's
about only 10-12 per cent. The NRI (people living abroad) is a great customer and the other is

the Indian corporate who is globalising -- either in the trade business or is setting up businesses
abroad.
Banks USP (unique selling proposition) is a unique technology; it can get customers to talk to
his constituents online. The NRI is an interesting link because today he has tremendous needs
in India; he wants to remit money, purchase a commodity, buy a home, especially the H1 visa
guys. This year 10 per cent of the home loans will be lended to NRIs.
In the United Kingdom the ICICI bank have a partnership with Lloyds Bank and are present in
30 branches there, promoting joint products, and they get new customers.
In the United States the ICICI bank have a tie-up with Wells Fargo and their customers can start
a remittance into India from any channel.

14/77
Under the agreement, Mr. Amitabh Bachchan endorsed and promoted all the products and
services offered by ICICI and its Group companies for a period of two years.

campaigns on television, print and outdoor medium. Mr. Bachchan also participated in selectevents such as new product launches, various campaigns, and customer reward programmes
etc.
ShahRukh Khan as global brand ambassador of ICICI:

promote its brand. Almost two-and-a-half years since superstar Amitabh Bachchan endorsed
the ICICI brand, the company has signed up Shah Rukh Khan as its global ambassador. Shah
Rukh Khan whose increasing global popularity gives synergy to the growing global presence of
ICICI Bank.
Shahrukh Khan is a truly global Indian who embodies the Indian winning spirit in a true sense.

COMPETITORS
Competitors of ICICI Bank:
Its nearest competitors in the private banking sector are HDFC Bank and AXIS (UTI) Bank.
15
-
7/29/2019 Share Market in Icici
16/77
As compared to ICICI Bank HDFC is frenetically seeking to shrug off the image of being a one-
product company (home loans), by using synergies that exist with its bank to foray into various
areas like e-broking, mutual funds, and insurance. For ICICI Bank, it is imperative that it moves
away from the high-risk, low-return business of project finance.

ICICI is still puny when compared to HDFC but the objective is very clear : grow the business,
even if it has come at HDFC's cost. Kalpana Morparia, Executive Director, ICICI, maintains that
they got into home loans simply because it's one of the safest businesses to be in, given the low
default rates. ''Besides, the market is growing and there's space for all those who wants to
enter.
HDFC Bank:

AXIS Bank:
In the case of Axis Bank, retail loans have declined from 30 per cent of the total loan book of Rs
25,800 crores in June 2006 to around 23 per cent of loan book of Rs.41,280 crore (as of June2007). Even over a longer period, while the overall asset growth for Axis Bank has been quite
high and has matched that of the other banks, retail exposures grew at a much slower pace.
Why ICICI Bank Leads:
ICICI bank envisaged retail banking as a key area of strategic emphasis for it with the share
of the retail business (both on the funding and asset sides) growing strongly year after year
the share of retail business, particularly retail assets.

It appears to be following a business strategy that is quite different from the high-volume and
commodity-style approach of AXIS Bank and HDFC Bank. That strategy also has its pluses in
terms of the relatively higher margins in some segments of the retail business and the in-built
credit risk diversification (and mitigation) achieved through a widely dispersed retail credit
portfolio. ICICI Bank has been able to maintain the quality of its loan portfolio for a decent timeperiod now.

Mutual Funds:
A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common
financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as
shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the
capital appreciation realised are shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units
owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it
offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a
relatively low cost. The flow chart below describes broadly the working of a mutual fund:
There are many entities involved and the diagram below illustrates the organisational set up of a

will cost much lower than when customers invest on their own.
6) Tax Advantages: Investment in mutual funds also enjoys several tax advantages.
Dividends from Mutual Funds are tax-free in the hands of the investor (This
however depends upon changes in Finance Act). Also, capital gain accrued frommutual funds investments for period of over one year is treated as long term capital
appreciation and is taxed at a lower rate of 10% without benefit of indexation or

market investment policies. I made the customers aware of various Mutual Fund schemes &
Insurance Plans of ICICI Bank. I gave them information about the Equity market and the market
risks present in todays scenario. Many customers are convinced about investing their money in
ICICI mutual funds.
Step by step procedure of the survey:
1) Scheduling appointments:
Making telephone calls to all the customers for the appointments. Many a times
customers were busy, sometimes they told me to reschedule the appointments. Many ofthe customers were high profile customers so they were busy all through the week
thats why it was a tough job to take appointments. It proved a challenge for me to get
appointments.
2) View of the customers:
I interacted with all the customers to know about their views related to the market
investments & the risks associated with them. I asked them that what kind of knowledge

confused about the securing their future using various investment plans. Some of the
customers were happy by not investing in the schemes as they thought that they will
loose their principal amount because they do not have proper knowledge.
4) Explanation:

profitable policies of the ICICI bank and how those policies can be properly used. I
explained them to take the help of wealth managers of ICICI bank for the proper
investments. I made them aware about the efficiency and capabilities of the wealth
managers of ICICI bank. I convinced them that the investments made by the ICICI bank
are much more secure & profitable.

Possible Solution:
Strategic adoption of technology to ensure that ICICI transforms into a universal bank, which will
provide fast and efficient customer service besides offering the whole gamut of banking and
financial services.
The retention of clients can be done with better relationship building, proper interaction and
proper care of clients. By understanding the basic needs of the customers & by analysing the
financial situation of the customers the clients can be easily retained. The approach of the
company should not be product centric. It should primarily focus on clients and their needs. The
risk appetite of the customers should be calculated properly. The company should understand
that when and under what circumstances the clients need money. The company should target
on fulfilling the short as well as long term goals.
The company should review the portfolio of clients time to time. By proper monitoring and
rebalancing the portfolio at regular intervals the clients should be retained without any problem.
From the survey ICICI bank gained the knowledge about their various customers & that there is
lack of knowledge among some customers. Through this survey the customers came to know
about the schemes & policies of ICICI bank and also various product offerings of ICICI bank.
With the help of my survey it was found that most of the customers were interested in
investing their money in Real Estate. Principal protection is their main target & the main
risk according to the Clients is Capital loss. They expect superior returns from the
70

portfolios in which they invest. And a lot of the clients were interested in taking the help
of the Wealth managers from ICICI bank.

Implications for Future Research:
1) The pension monies entering the Mutual Fund industry, as retirement products can be offered
for different income groups, age categories, and different service classes, varying asset
allocation with annuity, life cover and withdrawal facility at varying stages.
2)Innovative products such as target maturity plans and children plans, commodity-based
products, new asset classes such as real estate funds, hedging and arbitrage products and
bundled products providing pension, insurance and mutual fund benefits in one product should
be introduced by the mutual fund industry.
3) The small-cap funds and funds with more-volatile fund flows hold more cash. However, the
fund managers with better stock-picking skills should hold more cash, so that when the market
falls the customers do not have to suffer losses.
4) The wealth managers should keep analyzing the portfolios of their customers for proper
investments and superior returns.
