ICICI was formed in 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 providing medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only 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, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the 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, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both entities, and would create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy. The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the ability to participate in the payments system and provide transactionbanking services. The merger would enhance value for 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 ICICI and its subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. Shareholders of ICICI and ICICI BANK approved the merger in January 2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND MARKETING Marketing is a social process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating, offering, and freely exchanging products and services of value with others.

Marketing management: Marketing management is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational goals. Marketing management takes pace when at least one party to a potential exchange thinks about means of an achieving desired response from the parties. We see marketing management as the art and science of choosing target markets and getting, keeping and growing customers through creating, delivering, and communicating superior customer value.

Demand Forecasting: One of the company’s major reasons for undertaking a marketing research is to identify market opportunities. Once research is complete, the company must carefully evaluate opportunity before choosing its target market specifically, the company needs to measure and forecast size, growth and profit of each opportunity. Sales forecasts are used by finance to raise the needed cash for investment and operation; by the manufacturing department to establish capacity and output levels; by purchasing to acquire the right Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 36


ANALYSIS ON MARKET POTENTIAL OF SPECIAL SAVINGS ACCOUNT AT ICICI BANK amount supplies; and by human resource to hire and needed number of workers. Marketing is responsible for preparing the sales forecasts. If its forecast is far-off lose money because of inadequate inventories.

Measures of market demand: As part of their ongoing, companies prepare many estimates of market size. Demand Can be measured for six different products levels, five different space levels, and five different times levels. Each demand measure serves a specific purpose. A company might forecast short run demand for a particular product for the purpose of ordering raw materials, planning production and borrowing cash. Potential Market: The potential market is a set of consumers who profess a sufficient level of interest in a demand offer. Consumer interest is not enough to define a market, however potential consumers must have income for the product, and they must have access to the product offer. If the product is not distributed in certain areas, potential consumers in those areas are not available to marketers. Market Potential: The market forecast shows expected market demand, not maximum market demand. For the later, we have to visualize the level of market demand for a very high level of industry marketing expenditure, where further increases in marketing effort would have little in simulating further demand. Market potential is the limit approached by market demand as industry marketing expenditures approach infinity, for a given environment. Total Market potential:

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 37


ANALYSIS ON MARKET POTENTIAL OF SPECIAL SAVINGS ACCOUNT AT ICICI BANK Total market potential is the maximum amount of sales that might be valuable to all firms in an industry during a given period, under given level of industry marketing effort and given environmental conditions.

MARKET RESEARCH: The essence of marketing is that a firm will make what it can sell, rather than sell what it can make. Marketing therefore requires an assessment of customer needs through market research and the orientation of all the firms activities towards satisfaction of those units. The key technique of marketing is that of market research. Information about firms market and its customer is collected and analyzed in order to determine who buys the firms products, why, when and under what circumstances. On the basis of this analysis the marketing policy is evolved. Marketing research is not substitute for management decision; it is an aid to making better decisions by providing additional information relative to specific marketing problems. Marketing research is a formalized means of obtaining information to be used in making marketing decisions. The official American Marketing Associations definitions for marketing research reflects the themes but in greater detail. Marketing research is a function, which links the customer and public to the marketer through the information, which is used to identify and evaluate marketing actions, monitor marketing performance and improve understanding of marketing process. Marketing research specifies the information required to address these issues, design the method for collection of information. Manages and implements the data collection method, analyses the result the result and communicates the findings and there implications.

Customer value The key to generating high customer loyalty is to high customer value. Customer delivered value is the difference between total customer values and total customer cost. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

SWOT Analysis WEAKNESS: •

Long procedure of documentation while opening an account.

Most of the societies are facing distance problem, due to this reason many of the societies are not interested to open an account.

ICICI Bank has no branches in rural and remote locations.

No Cash Pickup facility for the societies. Whereas IDBI Bank is providing this facility.

No ATM facility is provided for this account.

Loan/credit limits are not offered as part of the product.

OPPORTUNITIES: •

ICICI Bank has golden opportunity if it provides the cash pickup facility to the Societies.

Gradually customer’s mentality is changing that is why they prefer modern banking to traditional banking of system. This is where ICICI gains over other nationalized banks.

By using ICICI Special Saving Account organizations can earn commission on multicity cheque, which is given by their customers.

ICICI Bank is well established in the Belgaum market, so this is an opportunity to grab more market than the new entrants like, IDBI UTI, HDFC Bank.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 47


ANALYSIS ON MARKET POTENTIAL OF SPECIAL SAVINGS ACCOUNT AT ICICI BANK THREATS: •

UTI and IDBI banks are capturing the market very fast because their easier documentation process..

ICICI Bank’s competitors like and IDBI, UTI and HDFC are fast expanding their networks.

IDBI Bank is providing cash pickup facility.

UTI, IDBI, HDFC and BOI are capturing the market share slowly.

IDBI and UTI Bank opens an account within a week.

PROBLEMS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Documentation Process: It is very important for the bank to give the service as early as possible. To open an account in ICICI Bank it takes lengthy time and the procedure is too long. In contrast procedure of the other banks is easier and it takes less time. So customers are getting attracted to these banks. Hence ICICI Bank has to provide speedier service by considering Know Your Customer where customers will find it easy and get the facility as early as possible.

Cash pick up facility: ICICI Bank is not providing the cash pickup facility to the organizations. But other banks like IDBI, UTI are providing this facility to customers. Many of the banks are attracting organization with this facility. Because it reduces organizations task of carrying the cash up to bank. So ICICI Bank has to provide this facility as early as possible, and it will help increase its organizational customer base. Location of ICICI Bank: ICICI Bank in nearly two years has achived remarkable progress but it has only one branch in Belgaum city. So if it wants to capture potential areas in Belgaum it has to open few more branches in Belgaum. Many organizations are not interested in ICICI Bank because of distance problem, further as some organizations deal in cash they find it difficult to carry cash to a long distance

Summary of the Project

Banking is most important part of any countries economy. ICICI Bank, which is a private bank has become the second largest bank in India and is providing various type of services to industries and business out of which Special Savings Account is one. It is also important source of income for the bank. So this survey is conducted to find out potential of Special Savings Account in Belgaum. On the basis of this survey bank can find out who is their potential customer and what new startegies are required to implement and attract more customers. From he survey it was found that 20% of the societies are interested to open Special Savings Account with ICICI Bank. Most important reasons for not opening an Special Savings Account are the bank location, cash-pickup facility, documentation procedure and low interest on linked FD. Co-operative Credit Societies expects from new banks, high percentage of interest, cash-pickup facility, third party cheque clearance and near by locations. From survey we can arrive at the conclusion that if ICICI Bank wants to improve its competitive position it should either provide cash-pick up facility, and bank should give a high percentage of interest on the linked FD, it should improve its documentation procedure and should provide soon a few more branches near the potential markets of Belgaum.
