1.1INTRODUCTION OF ING VYSYA BANK
ING Vysya Bank is a privately owned Indian multinational bank based in Bangalore, with retail,
wholesale, and private banking platforms formed from the 2002 purchase of an equity stake in
Vysya Bank by the Dutch ING Group. This merger marks the first between an Indian bank and a
foreign bank. Prior to this transaction, Vysya Bank had a seven-year-old strategic alliance with
erstwhile Belgian bank Banque Bruxelles Lambert, which was also acquired by ING Group in 1998.
As of March 2013, ING Vysya is the seventh largest private sector bank in India with assets
totaling 54836 crore (US$9.1 billion) and operating a pan-India network of over 1,000 outlets,

Trusted Private Sector Banks" by the Economic Times
History
Established in 1930s, Vysya Bank was formally incorporated in the city of Bangalore, Karnataka.
The state of Karnataka is known as the "cradle of Indian banking" due to the region's bygone
banking relationship with several European East India Companies during the 17th, 18th and 19th
centuries. Seven of the country's leading banks (Canara Bank, Syndicate Bank, Corporation
Bank, Vijaya Bank, Karnataka Bank, State Bank of Mysore, and ING Vysya Bank) were originally
established in Karnataka.
From the 1930s through the 1950s, Vysya Bank built its banking business organically in southern
India. The bank focused on serving the Vysya community, a merchant/trading community operating
across Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. In 1958, the bank was licensed by the Reserve Bank of
India (RBI) to expand its banking operations nationwide. In 1972, the RBI upgraded Vysya Bank to
a national B class bank.
2. 2
In 1987, Vysya Bank established two independently operating subsidiaries providing equipment
leasing and home mortgaging services (Vysya Bank Leasing Ltd and Vysya Bank Housing Finance
Ltd, respectively). In 1994, Vysya Bank began marketing several innovative financial products to the
fast-growing Indian middle-class segment (e.g. Vysprime and Vysinvest for NRIs,Vysbuy for
consumer financing, Vysmobile for auto loan financing, and Vysequity for common equity
financing).
Globalisation through Europe
Bank. In 1999, Vysya Bank joined the ING Group in co-marketing/distribution of life insurance
products in India. Vysya Bank also acquired a 26% equity stake in the ING Asset Management
Company. In 2000, Vysya Bank, ING Insurance, and the Damani Group formed a life insurance JV;
this innovative collaboration marks the first bancassurance venture in India. In 1995, Vysya Bank
entered into a long-term strategic alliance with Belgian bank Bank Bruxelles Lambert (BBL).
Following this agreement, the Vysya Bank engaged KPMC Peat Marwick for assistance in re-
engineering its business processes in preparation for globalisation. In 1996, an international
investment banking joint venture (JV) with MC Securities (London), an investment banking
subsidiary of BBL, was formally established.
In 1998, the ING Group acquired BBL and all its contractual and JV interests in Vysya
Formal merger with the ING Group
In 2002, Vysya Bank's Board of Directors and the RBI approved Vysya Bank's formal merger with
the ING Group. Under Indian law, this move allowed ING to increase its total equity holdings in
Vysya Bank from 20% to 44%. Peter Alexander Smyth and Jacques PM Kemp were appointed to the
board of the newly formed ING Vysya Bank.
ING Vysya Bank then appointed Bart Hellemans as CEO and managing director (MD) and G.
Mallikarjuna Rao as chairman of the board.

1.2 INTRODUCTION TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Overall customer satisfaction with retail banks improved significantly from 2012, largely a result of
improvements made by big banks, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2013 U.S. Retail Banking
Satisfaction Study.
Banks are ranked in 11 different regions based on overall customer satisfaction across six factors:
Account information
Channel activities
Facility
Fees
Problem resolution
Product offerings
After several years of relatively minor increases in overall satisfaction scores, customer satisfaction in
2013 improved significantly, with the largest increase among big banks. While as a group big banks
have historically trailed smaller banks in satisfying customers by a fair margin, the satisfaction gap
between big banks vs. midsize and regional banks has narrowed year over year.
During the past several years, many banks have eliminated free checking and implemented new fees,
which has often negatively impacted overall satisfaction. The study found that as fees have begun to
stabilize and banks have helped their customers better understand their fee structures, satisfaction in
this area has begun to rebound. One-third (33%) of customers say they “completely” understand their
fee structure, compared with 26% in 2012. Fees also have been a major source of customer problems
and complaints. The stability in fees, coupled with banks placing more emphasis on preventing
problems, has lowered the proportion of consumers experiencing a problem by 3 percentage points year
over year, to 18% in 2013.

INVESTMENT
MUTUAL FUNDS: Invest smartly
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 realized 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.

2.REVIEW OF LITERATURE
As we know that each study has some background information is gather by the researcher from the
other studies conducted by the other people in the area. Revises are the guidelines to understand the
problem so reviews provide some secondary data regarding the problem.
Faulhaber (1995) conducted a research on Banking Markets: Productivity, Risk
and Customer Satisfaction. A structural model was developed which incorporates bank decisions on
productivity, risk taking and customer satisfaction into an equilibrium model of banking markets. This
structural model was estimated directly for 219 large U.S. banks, 1984-1992. The results were: (i)
banks differ widely in their ability to manage risk; (ii) greater customer satisfaction correlates with
greater profitability, principally due to higher levels of demand; (iv) very large bank-specific effects
that previous researches discovered appear to have been largely captured in the structural model.
Shamsuddoha and Alamgir( 2004) formulated research on Loyalty and Satisfaction Construct in
Retail Banking - An Empirical Study on Bank Customers. This study investigated
customer satisfaction as the most important factor behind loyalty in retail banking. Various study
showed that satisfaction plays an important role to establish loyal customer base. This study points out
that satisfaction and loyalty relationship was critical for retail banks. Understanding the factors behind
loyalty as well as the antecedents of customer satisfaction was an important issue for academic research
as well as for marketing in financial services. The major aim of this study was to identify satisfaction as
the major factor behind customer loyalty in retail banking. To comply with the aim, two basic questions
had been investigated where one was related to determine the relationship between satisfactionand
loyalty in retail banking, and the second one was to determine the role of dimensions of service quality
towards satisfaction. The research had been carried out through secondary research and primary
research. Survey method had been used for primary research. Personal contact approach through
questionnaire had been introduced to conduct the survey. The findings revealed that satisfaction and
loyalty were related to each other. Moreover, satisfaction had a positive and direct impact on loyalty in
banking.Inthis key words were Loyalty, Satisfaction, Retail bank.
36. 36
Fuchita(2005) conducted research customer satisfaction surveys as a means of improving disclosure
Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) requested the banks, securities brokerages, and insurance
companies to conduct customer satisfaction surveys and publish the results. Some have opined that
such a request by the financial authorities constitutes excessive intervention in the private sector's
management of the financial services business. The author argued that the disclosure
of customer satisfactionand other non-financial information was a welcome request from the standpoint
of full disclosure.
Naga and Rajan (June2005) formulated research on Measuring Customer Relationships. The Case of
the Retail Banking Industry argued that GAAP was ill suited for estimating the future profitability of
intangibles. It characterized the core deposit intangible, an important retail banking intangible
representing a bank's relationships with its customers, using financial and nonfinancial metrics on price,
service, customer usage, and customer satisfaction. This result occurred because the activities
underlying the measures were causally interlinked to profits, and explicitly illustrate these linkages with
a structural path model. Measurement model also predicted significant interactive effects in the way our
measures were informative about future profits, and documented such effects, not just among the
individual measures, but also across the measures and environmental factors such as the bank's strategy.
In sum, measurement model illustrated the key drivers, measures, and interactions in retail
banking customer relationships.
David (2007) conducted a study thatthe relative efficiency of banks, taking into account
a customer satisfactionratingformulated research on this paperused customer satisfaction scored
generated for a New Zealand wide survey of consumers to augment analysis of bank efficiency, and to
achieve greater consistency with shareholder value analysis. It was found that
the customer satisfaction score needs to be adjusted for the number of locations (branches) through
which customers were served. The extent of divergence in efficiency was significantly reduced,
consistent with propositions that a large divergence in efficiency scores should not be sustainable in a
competitive market.

Haisley and Loewenstein (2009)conducted a research on the effect of gift sequence on deposit
balances and customer sentiment in a commercial bank. The impact of gifts on deposit balances
and customer sentiment was examined in a longitudinal field experiment conducted on depositors at
a bank. Several factors were manipulated: gift type, the accompanying message, and the sequence
of gift value, which was either increasing ($35 then $100 gift), decreasing ($100 then $35 gift), or a
single gift. Gifts increased deposit balances, survey response rates, and measures of customer
satisfaction, trust and loyalty compared to the no-gift control. Within gift conditions the sequence of
gift value was the most important factor, with a highly detrimental effect of decreasing value on
deposit balances. These results showed evidence of persistence in a long term follow-up analysis of
deposit balances. It concluded that by providing reciprocation, gift giving, sequence effects,
preference patterns customer are satisfied.
Hazra and Srivastava(2009) conducted research on impact of service quality on customer loyalty,
commitment and trust in the Indian banking sector. It examined the relationship of service quality
with customer loyalty, commitment and trust from the customer’s perspective in the Indian banking
sector. Data was collected from 300 customers of public and private sector banks using structured
interview schedules. The results showed that dimensions of service quality such as assurance-
empathy, reliability and tangibles significantly predict customer trust and commitment. The results
also indicated that service quality was positively associated with customer loyalty.
Private bank customers were more committed and loyal as they receive better quality of service.
The study implied that public sector banks should also come forward and try their best to provide
better quality service to win back their customers’ loyalty and commitment.
Mengi (2009)formulated Customer Satisfaction with Service Quality: An Empirical Study of Public
and Private Sector Banks. It compared customers’ perceptions of service quality of public
and private banks of Jammu. The service quality of both the banks had been measured using
SERVQUAL (service quality) scale. SERVQUAL scale was used to determine different dimensions
of service quality and chi-square analysis was used to understand the impact of SERVPERF
(service performance) dimensions (tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy)
on customer satisfaction. It was found that customers of public sector banks are more satisfied with
the service quality, than those of private sector banks.

Sinha and Sharma (2009) formulated research on the Legality of Forex Derivative Contracts:
Recent Developments in India June 01, 2009. It critically examined the ruling in Rajshree Sugar &
Chemicals Ltd. v. ING VYSYA bank which upholds the legal validity of forex derivative contracts
under Indian law. It also reflects on ICICI Bank Ltd. v. Sundaram Multi Pap Ltd. which followed
the same trend in a different context.
The perusal of literature revealed the most of the researches are in foreign. They had discussed
about the various problem faced by Customer in bank but it was also discussed whether the
customers are satisfied with the present banking services and the problem faced by them by not
providing services at time.
39. 39

customers were satisfied with the present banking services and customers perception towards

7. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
7.1 CONCLUSION
After completing this project we understand that if any organization wants to lead the market then it
has to focus on customer centered strategies and to provide better customer services.
ING VYSYA bank is one of the leading banks in private sector in India. It has made a mark in the
field of banking industry in a short span of time. It has strongly worked to widen its network. It has
more than 1000 branches and extension counters. The bank provides innumerable services to its
customers. It includes personal banking, dematerialization, auto loan, anywhere banking etc. Bank is
paying full attention to its customers and is also providing good services to the customers. The
market reputation of the bank is increasing day by day because of the increase in the size of the
balance sheet though it has to face cut throat competition.After conducting the review of researchers
done by various professional a gap has been identified. Various studies were conducted on the
Impact of Service Quality on Customer Loyalty, Commitment and Trust in the Indian Banking
Sector and customer satisfaction keeping in view the increasing market size and intense competition.
But till now there has not been any research regarding customer satisfaction in ING VYSYA bank
regarding whether the customers are satisfied with the present banking services and customers
perception towards banking.This gap has been identified and it has let to the present research being
undertaken. So the need was felt to cover the areas neglected. Thus here customer satisfaction in
ING VYSYA bank has been taken care of.

7. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS
The recommendations are the important part of any type of study because through this the Bank comes to
know about their shortcomings and helps in further improvements. The following recommendations were
made after the study:
As ING VYSYA bank has made its presence strong in the past 3-4 year so my recommendation
is that bank needs to maintain & strengthen its position among its competitors in market. And to
achieve this goal, Bank needs to focus on more customer oriented services.
ING VYSYA bank’s accountholders usually have less fixed deposits accounts. It can increase
interest on fixed deposit accounts & thus providing more competitive products to its customers.
In today’s scenario almost all the banks provide satisfactory ATM facility, so in order to have
competitive edge over other banks; it should improve mobile & net banking facility for its
customers. Bank can put some efforts to aware the customers about mobile & net banking &
assure them regarding its safety.
ING VYSYA bank should provide most flexible & customized services to its priority customers
so that its word of mouth advertisement can be increased.
ING VYSYA bank should keep a reasonable minimum limit so that its easy for every customer
to maintain their accounts.
