Introduction on Bank
Origin of the word
7
Institute of Productivity and Management
8. The name bank derives from the Italian word banco "desk/bench", used during the Renaissance
by Jewish Florentine bankers, who used to make their transactions above a desk covered by a
green tablecloth. However, there are traces of banking activity even in times ancient , which
indicates that the word 'bank' might not necessarily come from the word 'banco'.
Banks date back to ancient times. During the 3rd century AD, banks in Persia and other
territories in the Persian Sassanid Empire issued letters of credit known as Ṣakks. Muslim
traders are known to have used the cheque or Sakks system since the time of Harun al-Rashid
(9th century) of the Abbasid Caliphate. In the 9th century, a Muslim businessman could cash an
early form of the cheque in China drawn on sources in Baghdad a tradition that was
significantly strengthened in the 13th and 14th centuries, during the Mongol Empire. Indeed,
fragments found in the Cairo Geniza indicate that in the 12th century cheques remarkably
similar to our own were in use, only smaller to save costs on the paper. They contain a sum to
be paid and then the order "May so and so pay the bearer such and such an amount". The date
and name of the issuer are also apparent. The earliest known state deposit bank, Banco di San
Giorgio (Bank of St. George), was founded in 1407 at Genoa, Italy. Banking in the modern
sense of the word can be traced to medieval and early Renaissance Italy, to the rich cities in the
north like Florence, Venice and Genoa. The Bardi and Peruzzi families were dominated banking
in 14th century Florence, establishing branches in many other parts of Europe. Perhaps the most
famous Italian bank was the Medici bank, set up by Giovanni Medici in 1397.
Meaning of bank
A bank is a financial intermediary that accepts deposits and channels those deposits into
lending activities. Banks are a fundamental component of the financial system, and are also
active players in financial markets. The essential role of a bank is to connect those who have
capital (such as investors or depositors), with those who seek capital (such as individuals
wanting a loan, or businesses wanting to grow).
8
Institute of Productivity and Management
9. Banking is generally a highly regulated industry, and government restrictions on financial
activities by banks have varied over time and location. The current set of global standards is
called Basel II. In some countries such as Germany, banks have historically owned major stakes
in industrial corporations while in other countries such as the United States banks are prohibited
from owning non-financial companies. In Japan, banks are usually the nexus of a cross-share
holding entity known as the keiretsu. In France, banc assurance is prevalent, as most banks offer
insurance services (and now real estate services) to their clients. The most recent trend has been
the advance of universal banks, which attempt to offer their customers the full spectrum of
financial services under the one roof.
The oldest bank still in existence is Monte dei Paschi di Siena, headquartered in Siena, Italy,
which has been operating continuously since 1472.
Definition
The definition of a bank varies from country to country.
Under English common law, a banker is defined as a person who carries on the business of
banking, which is specified as:
• conducting current accounts for his customers
• paying cheques drawn on him, and
• Collecting cheques for his customers.
In most English common law jurisdictions there is a Bills of Exchange Act that codifies the law
in relation to negotiable instruments, including cheques, and this Act contains a statutory
definition of the term banker: banker includes a body of persons, whether incorporated or not,
who carry on the business of banking' (Section 2, Interpretation). Although this definition seems
circular, it is actually functional, because it ensures that the legal basis for bank transactions
such as cheques does not depend on how the bank is organized or regulated.
The business of banking is in many English common law countries not defined by statute but by
common law, the definition above. In other English common law jurisdictions there are
9
Institute of Productivity and Management
10. statutory definitions of the business of banking or banking business. When looking at these
definitions it is important to keep in minds that they are defining the business of banking for the
purposes of the legislation, and not necessarily in general. In particular, most of the definitions
are from legislation that has the purposes of entry regulating and supervising banks rather than
regulating the actual business of banking. However, in many cases the statutory definition
closely mirrors the common law one. Examples of statutory definitions:
• "banking business" means the business of receiving money on current or deposit
account, paying and collecting cheques drawn by or paid in by customers, the making of
advances to customers, and includes such other business as the Authority may prescribe
for the purposes of this Act; (Banking Act (Singapore), Section 2, Interpretation).
• "banking business" means the business of either or both of the following:
1. receiving from the general public money on current, deposit, savings or other similar
account repayable on demand or within less than [3 months] ... or with a period of call or
notice of less than that period;
2. Paying or collecting cheques drawn by or paid in by customers.
Since the advent of EFTPOS (Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale), direct credit, direct
debit and internet banking, the cheque has lost its primacy in most banking systems as a
payment instrument. This has led legal theorists to suggest that the cheque based definition
should be broadened to include financial institutions that conduct current accounts for customers
and enable customers to pay and be paid by third parties, even if they do not pay and collect
cheques.
Standard activities
Banks act as payment agents by conducting checking or current accounts for customers, paying
cheques drawn by customers on the bank, and collecting cheques deposited to customers'
current accounts. Banks also enable customer payments via other payment methods such as
telegraphic transfer, EFTPOS, and ATM.
10
Institute of Productivity and Management
11. Banks borrow money by accepting funds deposited on current accounts, by accepting term
deposits, and by issuing debt securities such as banknotes and bonds. Banks lend money by
making advances to customers on current accounts, by making installment loans, and by
investing in marketable debt securities and other forms of money lending.
Banks borrow most funds from households and non-financial businesses, and lend most funds to
households and non-financial businesses, but non-bank lenders provide a significant and in
many cases adequate substitute for bank loans, and money market funds, cash management
trusts and other non-bank financial institutions in many cases provide an adequate substitute to
banks for lending savings to.
Wider commercial role
The commercial role of banks is not limited to banking, and includes:
• issue of banknotes (promissory notes issued by a banker and payable to bearer on
demand)
• processing of payments by way of telegraphic transfer, EFTPOS, internet banking or
other means
• issuing bank drafts and bank cheques
• accepting money on term deposit
• lending money by way of overdraft, installment loan or otherwise
• providing documentary and standby letters of credit (trade finance), guarantees,
performance bonds, securities underwriting commitments and other forms of off-balance
sheet exposures
• safekeeping of documents and other items in safe deposit boxes
• currency exchange
• acting as a 'financial supermarket' for the sale, distribution or brokerage, with or without
advice, of insurance, unit trusts and similar financial product
11
Institute of Productivity and Management
12. Channels
Banks offer many different channels to access their banking and other services:
• A branch, banking centre or financial centre is a retail location where a bank or financial
institution offers a wide array of face-to-face service to its customers.
• ATM is a computerized telecommunications device that provides a financial institution's
customers a method of financial transactions in a public space without the need for a
human clerk or bank teller. Most banks now have more ATMs than branches, and ATMs
are providing a wider range of services to a wider range of users. For example in Hong
Kong, most ATMs enable anyone to deposit cash to any customer of the bank's account
by feeding in the notes and entering the account number to be credited. Also, most
ATMs enable card holders from other banks to get their account balance and withdraw
cash, even if the card is issued by a foreign bank.
• Mail is part of the postal system which itself is a system wherein written documents
typically enclosed in envelopes, and also small packages containing other matter, are
delivered to destinations around the world. This can be used to deposit cheques and to
send orders to the bank to pay money to third parties. Banks also normally use mail to
deliver periodic account statements to customers.
• Telephone banking is a service provided by a financial institution which allows its
customers to perform transactions over the telephone. This normally includes bill
payments for bills from major billers (e.g. for electricity).
• Online banking is a term used for performing transactions, payments etc. over the
Internet through a bank, credit union or building society's secure website.
• Mobile banking is a method of using one's mobile phone to conduct simple banking
transactions by remotely linking into a banking network.

Banks in the economy
Economic functions
The economic functions of banks include:
1. Issue of money, in the form of banknotes and current accounts subject to cheque or
payment at the customer's order. These claims on banks can act as money because they
are negotiable and/or repayable on demand, and hence valued at par. They are
effectively transferable by mere delivery, in the case of banknotes, or by drawing a
cheque that the payee may bank or cash.
13
Institute of Productivity and Management
14. 2. Netting and settlement of payments – banks act as both collection and paying agents for
customers, participating in interbank clearing and settlement systems to collect, present,
be presented with, and pay payment instruments. This enables banks to economies on
reserves held for settlement of payments, since inward and outward payments offset each
other. It also enables the offsetting of payment flows between geographical areas,
reducing the cost of settlement between them.
3. Credit intermediation – banks borrow and lend back-to-back on their own account as
middle men.
4. Credit quality improvement – banks lend money to ordinary commercial and personal
borrowers (ordinary credit quality), but are high quality borrowers. The improvement
comes from diversification of the bank's assets and capital which provides a buffer to
absorb losses without defaulting on its obligations. However, banknotes and deposits are
generally unsecured; if the bank gets into difficulty and pledges assets as security, to rise
the funding it needs to continue to operate, this puts the note holders and depositors in an
economically subordinated position.
5. Maturity transformation – banks borrow more on demand debt and short term debt, but
provide more long term loans. In other words, they borrow short and lend long. With a
stronger credit quality than most other borrowers, banks can do this by aggregating
issues (e.g. accepting deposits and issuing banknotes) and redemptions (e.g. withdrawals
and redemptions of banknotes), maintaining reserves of cash, investing in marketable
securities that can be readily converted to cash if needed, and raising replacement
funding as needed from various sources (e.g. wholesale cash markets and securities
markets)
Types of retail banks
• Commercial bank: the term used for a normal bank to distinguish it from an investment
bank. After the Great Depression, the U.S. Congress required that banks only engage in
banking activities, whereas investment banks were limited to capital market activities.
Since the two no longer have to be under separate ownership, some use the term
14
Institute of Productivity and Management
15. "commercial bank" to refer to a bank or a division of a bank that mostly deals with
deposits and loans from corporations or large businesses.
• Community banks: locally operated financial institutions that empower employees to
make local decisions to serve their customers and the partners.
• Community development banks: regulated banks that provide financial services and
credit to under-served markets or populations.
• Postal savings banks: savings banks associated with national postal systems.
• Private Banks: banks that manage the assets of high net worth individuals.
• Offshore banks: banks located in jurisdictions with low taxation and regulation. Many
offshore banks are essentially private banks.
• Savings bank: in Europe, savings banks take their roots in the 19th or sometimes even
18th century. Their original objective was to provide easily accessible savings products
to all strata of the population. In some countries, savings banks were created on public
initiative; in others, socially committed individuals created foundations to put in place
the necessary infrastructure. Nowadays, European savings banks have kept their focus
on retail banking: payments, savings products, credits and insurances for individuals or
small and medium-sized enterprises. Apart from this retail focus, they also differ from
commercial banks by their broadly decentralized distribution network, providing local
and regional outreach—and by their socially responsible approach to business and
society.
• Building societies and Landesbanks: institutions that conduct retail banking.
• Ethical banks: banks that prioritize the transparency of all operations and make only
what they consider to be socially-responsible investments.
Types of investment banks
15
Institute of Productivity and Management
16. • Investment banks "underwrite" (guarantee the sale of) stock and bond issues, trade for
their own accounts, make markets, and advise corporations on capital market activities
such as mergers and acquisitions.
• Merchant banks were traditionally banks which engaged in trade finance. The modern
definition, however, refers to banks which provide capital to firms in the form of shares
rather than loans. Unlike venture capital firms, they tend not to invest in new companies.
Both combined
• Universal banks, more commonly known as financial services companies, engage in
several of these activities. These big banks are much diversified groups that, among
other services, also distribute insurance— hence the term banc assurance, a portmanteau
word combining "banque or bank" and "assurance", signifying that both banking and
insurance are provided by the same corporate entity.
Other types of banks
• Central banks are normally government-owned and charged with quasi-regulatory
responsibilities, such as supervising commercial banks, or controlling the cash interest
rate. They generally provide liquidity to the banking system and act as the lender of last
resort in event of a crisis.
• Islamic banks adhere to the concepts of Islamic law. This form of banking revolves
around several well-established principles based on Islamic canons. All banking
activities must avoid interest, a concept that is forbidden in Islam. Instead, the bank
earns profit (markup) and fees on the financing facilities that it extends to customers.
Retail Banking Products
1. Savings account
Savings accounts are accounts maintained by retail financial institutions that pay interest but
can not be used directly as money ( for example, by writing a cheque). These accounts let
customers set aside a portion of their liquid assets while earning a monetary return.
16
Institute of Productivity and Management
17. 2. Current account
Current account or cheque account is a deposit account held at a bank or other financial
institution, for the purpose of securely and quickly providing frequent access to funds on
demand, through a variety of different channels. Because money is available on demand these
accounts are also referred to as demand accounts or demand deposit accounts. Transactional
accounts are meant neither for the purpose of earning interest nor for the purpose of savings, but
for convenience of the business or personal client; hence do they tend not to bear interest.
Instead, a customer can deposit or withdraw any amount of money any number of times, subject
to availability of funds.
3. Credit card
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. Usage of the term "credit card" to imply a credit card account is a
metonym. 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. This
is defined as 85.60 × 53.98 mm (33/8 × 21/8 in) in size
Fees charged to customers
The major fees are for:
• Late payments or overdue payments
• Charges that result in exceeding the credit limit on the card (whether done deliberately or
by mistake), called over limit fees
17
Institute of Productivity and Management
18. • Returned cheque fees or payment processing fees (e.g. phone payment fee)
• Cash advances and convenience cheques (often 3% of the amount)
• Transactions in a foreign currency (as much as 3% of the amount). A few financial
institutions do not charge a fee for this.
• Membership fees (annual or monthly), sometimes a percentage of the credit limit.
• Exchange rate loading fees (these may sometimes not be reported on the customer's
statement, even when they are applied).
4. Mortgage
A mortgage is a security interest in real property held by a lender as a security for a debt,
usually a loan of money. While a mortgage in itself is not a debt, it is the lender's security for a
debt. It is a transfer of an interest in land (or the equivalent) from the owner to the mortgage
lender, on the condition that this interest will be returned to the owner when the terms of the
mortgage have been satisfied or performed. In other words, the mortgage is a security for the
loan that the lender makes to the borrower. The word comes from the Old French word for
"dead pledge," apparently meaning that the pledge ends (dies) either when the obligation is
fulfilled or the property is taken through foreclosure. In most jurisdictions mortgages are
strongly associated with loans secured on real estate rather than on other property (such as
ships) and in some jurisdictions only land may be mortgaged. A mortgage is the standard
method by which individuals and businesses can purchase real estate without the need to pay the
full value immediately from their own resources. See mortgage loan for residential mortgage
lending, and commercial mortgage for lending against commercial property.
• Participants and variant terminology
Legal systems in different countries, while having some concepts in common, employ different
terminology. However, in general, a mortgage of property involves the following parties.
Mortgage lender-
18
Institute of Productivity and Management
19. A mortgage lender is an investor that lends money secured by a mortgage on real estate. In
today's world, most lenders sell the loans they write on the secondary mortgage market. When
they sell the mortgage, they earn revenue called Service Release Premium. Typically, the
purpose of the loan is for the borrower to purchase that same real estate. The borrower, known
as the mortgagor, gives the mortgage to the lender, known as the mortgagee. As the mortgagee,
the lender has the right to sell the property to pay off the loan if the borrower fails to pay.
5. Unsecured Loan
An unsecured loan is a loan that is not backed by collateral. Also known as a signature loan or
personal loan. Unsecured loans are based solely upon the borrower's credit rating. As a result,
they are often much more difficult to get than a secured loan, which also factors in the
borrower's income. An unsecured loan is considered much cheaper and carries less risk to the
borrower. However, when an unsecured loan is granted, it does not necessarily have to be
based on a credit score. For example, if your friend lends you money without any collateral,
meaning something of worth that can be repossessed if the loan isn't repaid, then your credit
score has zero to do with it, but rather the value of your friendship is at stake. Therefore the real
meaning of an unsecured loan is that it is not backed by any object of value and is lent to you
based on your good name. For financial institutional purposes, they may want to look at your
credit score because they are not your friend and it is strictly a business transaction, therefore
your good name may be associated with your historical payment history on prior debt, reflecting
in your credit score.
• Types of unsecured loans
There are three types of unsecured loans.
• First there is a personal unsecured loan, meaning a loan that you individually are
responsible for the repayment of.
• Second is an unsecured business loan which leaves the business responsible for the
repayment.
19
Institute of Productivity and Management
20. • Finally there is an unsecured business loan with a personal guarantee. With the latter,
although the borrower is the business, you as an individual will be the payer of last resort
if the business defaults on the loan
6. Mutual Fund
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 is 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:
Mutual fund is a trust that pools money from a group of investors (sharing common financial
goals) and invests the money thus collected into asset classes that match the stated
investment objectives of the scheme. Since the stated investment objectives of a mutual fund
scheme generally form the basis for an investor's decision to contribute money to the pool, a
mutual fund can not deviate from its stated objectives at any point of time.

I. Project financing
20
Institute of Productivity and Management
21. Project finance is the long term financing of infrastructure and industrial projects based upon the
projected cash flows of the project rather than the balance sheets of the project sponsors.
Usually, a project financing structure involves a number of equity investors, known as sponsors,
as well as a syndicate of banks that provide loans to the operation. The loans are most
commonly non-recourse loans, which are secured by the project assets and paid entirely from
project cash flow, rather than from the general assets or creditworthiness of the project sponsors,
a decision in part supported by financial modeling. The financing is typically secured by all of
the project assets, including the revenue-producing contracts. Project lenders are given a lien on
all of these assets, and are able to assume control of a project if the project company has
difficulties complying with the loan terms. Generally, a special purpose entity is created for
each project, thereby shielding other assets owned by a project sponsor from the detrimental
effects of a project failure. As a special purpose entity, the project company has no assets other
than the project. Capital contribution commitments by the owners of the project company are
sometimes necessary to ensure that the project is financially sound.
II. Risk management
In ideal risk management, a prioritization process is followed whereby the risks with the greatest
loss and the greatest probability of occurring are handled first, and risks with lower probability
of occurrence and lower loss are handled in descending order. In practice the process can be
very difficult, and balancing between risks with a high probability of occurrence but lower loss
versus a risk with high loss but lower probability of occurrence can often be mishandled.
Intangible risk management identifies a new type of a risk that has a 100% probability of
occurring but is ignored by the organization due to a lack of identification ability. For example,
when deficient knowledge is applied to a situation, a knowledge risk materializes. Relationship
risk appears when ineffective collaboration occurs. Process-engagement risk may be an issue
when ineffective operational procedures are applied. These risks directly reduce the productivity
of knowledge workers, decrease cost effectiveness, profitability, service, quality, reputation,
brand value, and earnings quality. Intangible risk management allows risk management to create
immediate value from the identification and reduction of risks that reduce productivity.
21
Institute of Productivity and Management
22. Risk management also faces difficulties in allocating resources. This is the idea of opportunity
cost. Resources spent on risk management could have been spent on more profitable activities.
Again, ideal risk management minimizes spending and minimizes the negative effects of risks.

24. Industry Background
Banking system in India
Currently, India has 96 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) - 27 public sector banks (that is
with the Government of India holding a stake), 31 private banks (these do not have government
stake; they may be publicly listed and traded on stock exchanges) and 38 foreign banks. They
have a combined network of over 53,000 branches and 49,000 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.
24
Institute of Productivity and Management
25. Early history
Banking in India originated in the last decades of the 18th century. The first banks were The
General Bank of India which started in 1786, and the Bank of Hindustan, both of which are now
defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India, which originated in the
Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became the Bank of Bengal. This was
one of the three presidency banks, the other two being the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of
Madras, all three of which were established under charters from the British East India Company.
For many years the Presidency banks acted as quasi-central banks, as did their successors. The
three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India's
independence, became the State Bank of India.
25
Institute of Productivity and Management
26. Indian merchants in Calcutta established the Union Bank in 1839, but it failed in 1848 as a
consequence of the economic crisis of 1848-49. The Allahabad Bank, established in 1865 and
still functioning today, is the oldest Joint Stock bank in India. It was not the first though. That
honor belongs to the Bank of Upper India, which was established in 1863, and which survived
until 1913, when it failed, with some of its assets and liabilities being transferred to the Alliance
Bank of Shimla.
When the American Civil War stopped the supply of cotton to Lancashire from the Confederate
States, promoters opened banks to finance trading in Indian cotton. With large exposure to
speculative ventures, most of the banks opened in India during that period 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.
Foreign banks too started to arrive, particularly in Calcutta, in the 1860s. The Comptoire
d'Escompte de Paris opened a branch in Calcutta in 1860, and another in Bombay in 1862;
branches in Madras and Pondicherry, then a French colony, followed. HSBC established itself
in Bengal in 1869. Calcutta was the most active trading port in India, mainly due to the trade of
the British Empire, and so became a banking center.
The first entirely Indian joint stock bank was the Oudh Commercial Bank, established in 1881
in Faizabad. It failed in 1958. The next was the Punjab National Bank, established in Lahore in
1895, which has survived to the present and is now one of the largest banks in India.
Around the turn of the 20th Century, the Indian economy was passing through a relative period
of stability. Around five decades had elapsed since the Indian Mutiny, and the social, industrial
and other infrastructure had improved. Indians had established small banks, most of which
served particular ethnic and religious communities.
The presidency banks dominated banking in India but there were also some exchange banks and
a number of Indian joint stock banks. All these banks operated in different segments of the
economy. The exchange banks, mostly owned by Europeans, concentrated on financing foreign
trade. Indian joint stock banks were generally under capitalized and lacked the experience and

Curzon to observe, "In respect of banking it seems we are behind the times. We are like some
old fashioned sailing ship, divided by solid wooden bulkheads into separate and cumbersome
compartments."
The period between 1906 and 1911, saw the establishment of banks inspired by the Swadeshi
movement. The Swadeshi movement inspired local businessmen and political figures to found
banks of and for the Indian community. A number of banks established then have survived to
the present such as Bank of India, Corporation Bank, Indian Bank, Bank of Baroda, Canara
Bank and Central Bank of India.
The fervour of Swadeshi movement lead to establishing of many private banks in Dakshina
Kannada and Udupi district which were unified earlier and known by the name South Canara
( South Kanara ) district. Four nationalised banks started in this district and also a leading
private sector bank. Hence undivided Dakshina Kannada district is known as "Cradle of Indian
Banking".

estimated to be 19.4 million units, of which 12.76 million units is from rural areas and 6.64
million units from urban areas. The housing industry is the second largest employment
generator in the country. It is estimated that the budgeted 2 million units would lead to the
35
Institute of Productivity and Management
36. creation of an additional 10 million man-years of direct employment and another 15 million
man-years of indirect employment.
Having identified housing as a priority area in the Ninth Five Year Plan (1997-2002), the
National Housing Policy has envisaged an investment target of Rs. 1,500 billion for this sector.
In order to achieve this investment target, the Government needs to make low cost funds easily
available and enforce legal and regulatory reforms.

resulting in an extension of term of the loan, and vice versa when the interest rate
decreases.
