INDUSTRY PROFILE Money lending in India is an age old profession with a history of about 200 years. In the late 18th century, Tippu Sulthan, was accredited to have conceived the idea of organising banking as a part of state machinery for extending credit facilities to the needy at an affordable rates. At the end of late18th century, there were hardly any bank in India in the modern sense of the term. At the time of the American Civil War, a void was created as the supply of cotton to Lancashire stopped from the American’s. Some banks were opened at that time which functioned as entities to finance industry, including speculative trades in cotton. With large exposure to speculative ventures, most of the banks opened in India during that period could not survive and failed. The depositors lost money and lost interest in keeping deposits with banks. Subsequently, banking in India remained the exclusive domain of Europeans for next several decades until the beginning of the 20th century. The first bank which was established in India was General Bank of India which came into existence in 1786 which was followed by the Bank of Hindustan. Both these banks are now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India being established as "The Bank of Bengal" in Calcutta in June 1806. A couple of decades later, foreign banks like Credit Lyonnais started their Calcutta operations in the 1850s. At that point of time, Calcutta was the most active trading port, mainly due to the trade of the British Empire, and due to which banking activity took roots there and prospered. The first fully Indian owned bank was the Allahabad Bank, which was established in 1865. By the 1900s, the market expanded with the establishment of banks such as Punjab National Bank, and Bank of India, in 1906, both of which were founded under private ownership. The Reserve Bank of India formally took over the responsibility of regulating the Indian banking sector from 1935. After India's independence in 1947, the Reserve Bank was nationalized and was given broader powers. .

HISTORY The English word bank is derived from the Italian word “Banaco”, the Latin word “Baacus” and the French word “Banque” which means a bench. The word is also derived from the German word “Bank”, which means a joint stock company fund (i.e. heap money), rose from a large number of members of the public. Bank in one from or another was in existence even in ancient times. The writings of Manu (the maker of old Hindu law) and Kautilya (the minister of Chandragupta Maurya) and the teachings of Christ contained references to banking activities in Babylonia much before Christ. However modern banking is of recent origin. It came into existence only after the industrial revolution. After the industrial revolution, with the increase in the size of industrial and business units, joint stock company form of business organization came into existence. This form of organization encouraged people with small incomes to become shareholders of big industrial and business enterprises .Still, there were certain section of the public who were not prepared to invest their money on the shares of joint stock companies. But they were willing to part with their surplus money, if they were assured of the repayment of their money with some interest thereon. So, naturally there arose the need for the formation of financial institution that could collect the surplus funds of the people on terms acceptable to them and make them available to the needy for productive purpose.

 Definition -2-


A Banking company in India has been defined in the Banking companies Act, 1949 as “ Which transacts the business of Banking, which means accepting for the purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public repayable on demand or otherwise and with draw able by Cheques, drafts, orders or otherwise”.

 Indian Banking Regulation Act Sec 5(1) of the Indian Banking Regulation Act of 1949 defines the ‘Banking Company’ as “Any company which transacts the business of Banking”.

 Business of Banking Banking is a business and like any other business the aim is the maximisation of profits through customer service. The two main products are Deposits and Loans. On Deposits it pays interest whereas on Loans it charges interest and the rate on Deposits is always lower than the rate of Loans. The difference between these two constitutes the banks income. Banking is a business but profiteering is absent here. It is a unique business of pooling together the savings of the community scattered all over and from the very same pool granting loans to the needy in the society. Thus it acts as a link between the savers and the needy. This unique service is often called public utility service. In the common man’s parlance it is definitely a social service.

-3-


Banking is a business but it differs from other business in many respects. This business runs purely on the confidence of the members of the general public called the depositors who entrust their savings solely out of their confidence and trust that they will get back their money with interest whenever they need. So long as there is confidence on the bank in this way, the deposits will come to the bank. Similarly in case of loan. While giving, the bank reposes full trust and confidence on the Borrower that he will repay the same with interest. There could be security documents undertaking to repay anytime on demand by the bank and collateral securities for any eventuality. But the documents and securities are only collateral and secondary and the main consideration is only the confidence. Thus in both the cases of deposits and advances, confidence pays a vital role.

 Post-Independence The partition of India in 1947 had adversely impacted the economies of Punjab and West Bengal, and banking activities had remained paralyzed for months. India's independence marked the end of a regime of the Laissez-faire for the Indian banking. The Government of India initiated measures to play an active role in the economic life of the nation, and the Industrial Policy Resolution adopted by the government in 1948 envisaged a mixed economy. This resulted into greater involvement of the state in different segments of the economy including banking and finance. The major steps to regulate banking included. In 1948, the Reserve Bank of India was nationalized, and it became an institution owned by the Government of India. In 1949, the Banking -4-


Regulation Act was enacted which empowered the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) "to regulate, control, and inspect the banks in India”. The Banking Regulation Act also provided that no new bank or branch of an existing bank may be opened without a license from the RBI, and no two banks could have common directors. However, despite these provisions, control and regulations, banks in India except the State Bank of India, continued to be owned and operated by private persons. This changed with the nationalization of major banks in India on 19th July, 1969.

 Nationalisation By the 1960s, the Indian banking industry had become an important tool to facilitate the development of the Indian economy. At the same time, it has emerged as a largest employer, and a debate has ensued about the possibility to nationalize the banking industry. Indira Gandhi, the-then Prime Minister of India expressed the intention of the Government of India in the annual conference of the All India Congress Meeting in a paper entitled "Stray thoughts on Bank Nationalisation." The paper was received with positive enthusiasm. Thereafter, her move was swift and sudden, and the Government of India issued an ordinance and nationalised the 14 largest commercial banks with effect from the midnight of July 19, 1969. Jayaprakash Narayan, a national leader of India, described the step as a "masterstroke of political sagacity." Within two weeks of the issue of the ordinance, the Parliament passed the Banking Companies Bill, and it received the presidential approval on 9th August, 1969.

-5-


A second dose of nationalisation of 6 more commercial banks followed in 1980. The stated reason for the nationalisation was to give the government more control of credit delivery. With the second dose of nationalisation, the Government of India controlled around 91% of the banking business of India. After this, until the 1990s, the nationalised banks grew at a pace of around 4%, closer to the average growth rate of the Indian economy.

 Liberalisation In the early 1990s the then Narasimha Rao government embarked on a policy of liberalisation and gave licences to a small number of private banks, which came to be known as New Generation tech-savvy banks, which included banks such as UTI Bank, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. This move, along with the rapid growth in the economy of India, kick started the banking sector in India, which has seen rapid growth with strong contribution from all the three sectors of banks, namely, government banks, private banks and foreign banks.

 Opportunities a Head Currently, overall, banking in India is considered as fairly mature in terms of supply, product range and reach-even though reach in rural India still remains a challenge for the private sector and foreign banks. Even in terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian banks are considered to have clean, strong and transparent balance sheets-as compared to other banks in comparable economies in its region. The Reserve Bank of India is an autonomous body, with minimal pressure -6-


from the government. The stated policy of the bank on the Indian Rupee is to manage volatility-without any stated exchange rate-and this has mostly been true. With the growth in the Indian economy expected to be strong for quite some time-especially in its services sector, the demand for banking services-especially retail banking, mortgages and investment services are expected to be strong. M&A, takeovers, asset sales and much more action will happen on this front in India. In March 2006, the Reserve Bank of India allowed Warburg Pincus to increase its stake in Kotak Mahindra Bank to 10%. This is the first time an investor has been allowed to hold more than 5% in a private sector bank since the RBI announced norms in 2005 that any stake exceeding 5% in the private sector banks would need to be vetted by them. As on date, India has 88 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) - 28 public sector banks, 29 private banks and 31 foreign banks. They have a combined network of over 53,000 branches and 17,000 ATMs. According to a report by ICRA Limited, a rating agency, the public sector banks hold over 75 percent of total assets of the banking industry, with the private and foreign banks holding 18.2% and 6.5% respectively.

Nature of the Business Carried In the words of Late Shri T.A.Pai “Some people believe

that Banking means money lending and that a Banker is not but a glorified Money lender. But Banking is not money-lending as money lender does not take the risk whereas the Banker does.” Bank is into pooling together the savings of the community scattered all over and from the very same pool granting loans to the needy in the society. Thus it acts as a link between the savers and the needy. Thus the two main products of the Bank are Deposits and Loans. c)

This is the work flow adopted by the bank at the time of receiving the deposits from their customers. The first step in this process is customer approaching the bank. When the customers will have surplus money with them, they will be looking to invest that money in some place where they can get good returns out of it. Bank is one such place which accepts deposits from their customers and pays interest on them. So the customers will be looking for that bank which will pay them highest rate of interest on their deposits. Once the customer identifies the bank where he is going to deposit his amount, he has to go through the introduction stage, were the customer needs to be introduced to the bank. He may be introduced to the bank by the customer or an employee of that bank. He is asked for providing documents like Ration card or any license for address, age & income proof. Once the account is opened (i.e. Either S.B a/c, fixed deposits, recurring deposits or current a/c) he/she will provide with facilities like Cheque book, ATM or O.D if it’s a current a/c. Once the customer opens an account in the bank he can deposit any amount any number of times but in case of fixed deposit its one lump sum amount deposited till its maturity it is not withdrawn. When amount is deposited it goes to the hands of cashier and then to cash supervisor and then to his account, but now due to CBS the entry is given within a minute. The depositors are eligible to withdraw the amount which is credited in their account and not more than that unless it is current account. Depositors can withdraw as an when they need but in case of fixed deposits prior 7 days notice to be given, but today’s banker will not ask -35-


for any notice just give it in the spot with penalty. The process of withdrawal is reverse of depositing where from his account it goes to cash supervisor from him to cashier finally to the hands of customer, again traditional work flow. Now all are computerized where in one person does all the activity. Customer can directly withdraw in ATMs or can directly issue Cheques to the other party.

Loan Disbursement

Repayment of interest

This is the work flow model followed by the bank at the time of giving advances to their customers. Which involves the following series of steps, they are: Any party requiring funds through Bank first has to talk with the respective manager of a branch of his area. One thing the manager has to see that the amount of loan he has to sanction is in his power/ limit or else he has to concern his higher authority. In this stage the process of negotiation regarding rate of interest between party and Banker takes place. The important duty of a manager is to know his customer there are many systematical techniques and process to know the real identification of the customers. This is done mainly to avoid anti-laundering. The purpose of loan to be sanctioned should be clearly understood either by evaluating blue print of his project or balance sheet or performance proof of his existing business. This is mainly done to make sure that repayment of the amount is ensured and party won’t become Bankrupt. In case of personal loan evaluation of the person is done through other person who is known to the Banker.

After the purpose of the loan is served, the party is obliged to repay the amount incorporating PLR and other Bank charges or according to the agreement Future Growth prospectus With a economy of the country growing at nearly 8% there high growth potential for the bank.

The environment might present many opportunities but a company might not have strength to exploit all the opportunities. Similarly, sometimes a firm will not have the strength to meet the environmental threats. If a company, thus, finds that it will not have the competence to survive in a particular line of business, it will be prudent to give it up and concentrate on such business for which the firm is most competent. The economic liberalization in India in 1991 drastically changed the business environment. Many Companies have exited several of their business and have been concentrating on their core Business Strengths 1. The factors that have contributed to the success of the Bank is its workforce because the bank has highly educated workforce, young and energetic employees within the age group of 25-45This helps the

SCHEMES EVOLVED BY KARNATAKA BANK LTD. THE PHILOSOPHY "To open a shop is easy but to keep it open is an art" - were the golden words of noted philosopher Confucius. When we look back to the history of coffee finance in our bank, we feel proud because there is a perfect combination of the art and science.

-66-


THE NEW ERA The more scientific and technological orientation towards agricultural finance more especially towards plantation finance began during the year 1984 when bank started recruiting more technically qualified agricultural field officers (APOs). The service of these specialized officers has been utilized. "Under Head quarter based cluster branches approach" almost all the branches of the Bank are having agricultural advances, it was at this period that Bank upgraded its technical expertise in coffee finance and took early advantages in utilization of the refinance facilities of NABARD. The effective mobility of the AFOs in the field of agricultural credit the Bank has also started posting some of them as branch manages for some of the agricultural dominated branches.

THE A.D.B. All these strenuous efforts have culminated in designing the Chikmagalore branch as the first "(ADB) of bank in 1995. Further in order to provide modern banking facilities to the coffee exports is gave more fillips to the coffee exports. The bank also designed the said branch for crore business during 1977.
