EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The rise of retail lending in emerging economies like India has
been of recent origin. Asia Pacific’s vast population, combined
with high savings rates, explosive economic growth, and
underdeveloped retail banking services, provide the most
significant growth opportunities for banks. Banks will have to
serve the retail banking segment effectively in order to utilize the
growth opportunity.
Banking strategies are presently undergoing various
transformations, as the overall scenario has changed over the last
couple of years. Till the recent past, most of the banks had
adopted fierce cost cutting measures to sustain their
competitiveness. This strategy however has become obsolete in
the new light of immense growth opportunities for banking
industry. Most bankers are now confident about their high
performance in terms of organic growth and in realising high
returns. Nowadays, the growth strategies of banks revolve around
customer satisfaction. Improved customer relationship
management can only lead to fulfilment of long-term, as well as,
short-term objectives of the bankers. This requires, efficient and
accurate customer database management and development of
4
well-trained sales force to develop and sustain long-term
profitable customer relationship.
The banking system in India is significantly different from that of
the other Asian nations, because of the country’s unique
geographic, social, and economic characteristics. Though the
sector opened up quite late in India compared to other developed
nations, like the US and the UK, the profitability of Indian banking
sector is at par with that of the developed countries and at times
even better on some parameters. For instance, return on equity
and assets of the Indian banks are on par with Asian banks, and
higher when compared to that of the US and the UK.

PROCESS
AXIS BANK YES BANK KOTAK BANK
Standardization: Bank has got standardized procedures got typical transactions. In fact not only all the branches of a single-bank, but all the banks have some standardization in them. This is because of the rules they are subject to. Besides this, each of the banks has its standard forms, documentations etc. Standardization saves a lot of time behind individual transaction.
Customization: There are specialty counters at each branch to deal with customers of a particular scheme. Besides this the customers can select their deposit period among the available alternatives.
Number of steps: numbers of steps are usually specified and a specific pattern is followed to minimize time taken.
Simplicity: Banks various functions are segregated. Separate counters exist with clear indication. Thus a customer wanting to
14
deposit money goes to ‘deposits’ counter and does not mingle elsewhere. This makes procedures not only simple but consume less time. Besides instruction boards in national boards in national and regional language help the customers further.
Customer involvement: ATM does not involve any bank employees. Besides, during usual bank transactions, there is definite customer involvement at some or the other place because of the money matters and signature requires.

SWOT ANALYSIS OF BANKS
STRENGTH
Indian banks have compared favourably on growth, asset
quality and profitability with other regional banks over the
last few years. The banking index has grown at a
compounded annual rate of over 51 per cent since April
2001 as compared to a 27 per cent growth in the market
index for the same period.
Policy makers have made some notable changes in policy
and regulation to help strengthen the sector. These changes
include strengthening prudential norms, enhancing the
payments system and integrating regulations between
commercial and co-operative banks.
Bank lending has been a significant driver of GDP growth
and employment.
16
Extensive reach: the vast networking & growing number of
branches & ATMs. Indian banking system has reached even
to the remote corners of the country.
The government's regular policy for Indian bank since 1969
has paid rich dividends with the nationalisation of 14 major
private banks of India.
In terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian
banks are considered to have clean, strong and transparent
balance sheets relative to other banks in comparable
economies in its region.
India has 88 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) - 27 public
sector banks (that is with the Government of India holding a
stake)after merger of New Bank of India in Punjab National
Bank in 1993, 29 private banks (these do not have
government stake; they may be publicly listed and traded on
stock exchanges) 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.
Foreign banks will have the opportunity to own up to 74 per
cent of Indian private sector banks and 20 per cent of
government owned banks.
17
WEAKNESS
PSBs need to fundamentally strengthen institutional skill
levels especially in sales and marketing, service operations,
risk management and the overall organizational
performance ethic & strengthen human capital.
18
Old private sector banks also have the need to
fundamentally strengthen skill levels.
The cost of intermediation remains high and bank
penetration is limited to only a few customer segments and
geographies.
Structural weaknesses such as a fragmented industry
structure, restrictions on capital availability and deployment,
lack of institutional support infrastructure, restrictive labour
laws, weak corporate governance and ineffective regulations
beyond Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs), unless industry
utilities and service bureaus.
Refusal to dilute stake in PSU banks: The government
has refused to dilute its stake in PSU banks below 51% thus
choking the headroom available to these banks for raining
equity capital.
Impediments in sectoral reforms: Opposition from Left
and resultant cautious approach from the North Block in
terms of approving merger of PSU banks may hamper their
growth prospects in the medium term.
19
OPPORTUNITY
The market is seeing discontinuous growth driven by new
products and services that include opportunities in credit
cards, consumer finance and wealth management on the
retail side, and in fee-based income and investment banking
on the wholesale banking side. These require new skills in
sales & marketing, credit and operations.
Banks will no longer enjoy windfall treasury gains that the
decade-long secular decline in interest rates provided. This
will expose the weaker banks.
With increased interest in India, competition from foreign
banks will only intensify.
Given the demographic shifts resulting from changes in age
profile and household income, consumers will increasingly
demand enhanced institutional capabilities and service
levels from banks.
New private banks could reach the next level of their growth
in the Indian banking sector by continuing to innovate and
develop differentiated business models to profitably serve
segments like the rural/low income and affluent/HNI
segments; actively adopting acquisitions as a means to grow
and reaching the next level of performance in their service
20
platforms. Attracting, developing and retaining more
leadership capacity
Foreign banks committed to making a play in India will need
to adopt alternative approaches to win the “race for the
customer” and build a value-creating customer franchise in
advance of regulations potentially opening up post 2009. At
the same time, they should stay in the game for potential
acquisition opportunities as and when they appear in the
near term. Maintaining a fundamentally long-term value-
creation mindset.
reach in rural India for the private sector and foreign banks.
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.
the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has approved a proposal
from the government to amend the Banking Regulation Act
to permit banks to trade in commodities and commodity
derivatives.
Liberalisation of ECB norms: The government also
liberalised the ECB norms to permit financial sector entities
engaged in infrastructure funding to raise ECBs. This enabled
banks and financial institutions, which were earlier not
permitted to raise such funds, explore this route for raising
cheaper funds in the overseas markets.
21
Hybrid capital: In an attempt to relieve banks of their
capital crunch, the RBI has allowed them to raise perpetual
bonds and other hybrid capital securities to shore up their
capital. If the new instruments find takers, it would help PSU
banks, left with little headroom for raising equity.
Significantly, FII and NRI investment limits in these securities
have been fixed at 49%, compared to 20% foreign equity
holding allowed in PSU banks.
THREATS
Threat of stability of the system: failure of some weak banks
has often threatened the stability of the system.
Rise in inflation figures which would lead to increase in
interest rates.
Increase in the number of foreign players would pose a
threat to the PSB as well as the
private players.
