Introduction
 What is bank ?
A bank is a financial institution that is licensed to accept checking and savings deposits and make loans. Banks also provide related

services such as individual retirement accounts (IRAs), certificates of deposit (CDs), currency exchange, and safe deposit boxes.

There are several types of banks including retail banks, commercial or corporate banks, and investment banks.

In the U.S., banks are regulated by the national government and by the individual states.

 Definition :

1. A bank is a financial institution licensed to receive deposits and make loans.

2. Banking is the business of protecting money for other.


3. Banking is a trade of accepting deposits and lending money.

 Understanding Banks:

Banks have existed since at least the 14th century. They provide a safe place for consumers and business owners to stow their cash and a
source of loans for personal purchases and business ventures. In turn, the banks use the cash that is deposited to make loans and collect
interest on them.

The basic business plan hasn't changed much since the Medici family started dabbling in banking during the Renaissance, but the range of
products that banks offer has grown.

 Basic Bank Services:

Banks offer various ways to stash your cash and various ways to borrow money.

1.Checking Accounts -

Checking accounts are deposits used by consumers and businesses to pay their bills and make cash withdrawals. They pay little or no
interest and typically come with monthly fees, usage fees, or both.

Today's consumers generally have their pay checks and any other regular payments automatically deposited in one of these accounts.

 Savings Accounts:

Savings accounts pay interest to the depositor. Depending on how long account holders hope to keep their money in the bank, they can
open a regular savings account that pays a little interest or a certificate of deposit (CD) that pays a little more interest. The CDs can earn
interest for as little as a few months or as long as five years or more.
It is important to note that the money in checking accounts, savings accounts, and CDs is insured up to a maximum of $250,000 by the
federal government through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.

 Loan Services:

Banks make loans to consumers and businesses. The cash that is deposited by their customers is lent out to other customers at a higher rate
of interest than the depositor is paid.

At the highest level, this is the process that keeps the economy humming. People deposit their money in banks; the bank lends the money
out in car loans, credit cards, mortgages, and business loans. The loan recipients spend the money they borrow, the bank earns interest on
the loans, and the process keeps money moving through the system.

Just like any other business, the goal of a bank is to earn a profit for its owners. For most banks, the owners are their shareholders. Banks
do this by charging more interest on the loans and other debt they issue to borrowers than they pay to people who use their savings vehicles.

For example, a bank may pay 1% interest on savings accounts and charge 6% interest for its mortgage loans, earning a gross profit of 5%
for its owners.1

 Types of Banks:

There are four broad categories of a bank, these are:

1.Retail Banks: Commonly known as general or personal banking institutions, retail banks deals with the general public. They provide
services such as savings accounts, current accounts, short-term loans, overdraft protection, etc.

2.Corporate or Commercial Banks: These banks deal with businesses from small businesses to large corporate entities. They provide
services such as cash management, commercial real estate, etc.

3.Investment Banks: These banks majorly focus on corporate clients dealing in complex services such as mergers and acquisitions or
underwriting.

4.Central Banks: Unlike others, central banks do not deal with the public or corporations. They are not market-based. Its primary
responsibility is to control inflation, regulate monetary policy, oversee currency stability etc. 2

 Modes of Banking :
Banking today exists in a myriad of forms, thanks to the advancement of technology.

1:Mobile Banking - Banks today have a mobile app where account holders can make transactions, check balances, open deposits and
more. Most people today prefer a mobile app over a physical bank branch for basic functions.

2:Internet Banking- Banks today also have a website where account holders can log in and carry out all the functions that previously
required a visit to a bank branch.

3:Digital Banking-Digital banking is a service offered by brick-and-mortar banks, to make transactions easier for their customers.
Digital Banking Digital banking has become so popular that most people now prefer making payments through NEFT or IMPS, or the
newly launched UPL.

4:Neobanking-Neobanks operate entirely online with no physical presence at all. Neobanks offer flexibility and ease of use that legacy
traditional banks typically do not, or cannot offer. Legal regulations have not yet caught up to these new-age banks, the RBI "is cognizant
of the benefits that neobanks bring to the table.3

Literature Review
RBI must amend FEMA rules on FDI in retail: Supreme Court

New Delhi, Oct 15: The Foreign Exchange Management Act regulations should have been amended by the Reserve Bank of India before
the Centre cleared 51 percent FDI in multi-brand retail, the Supreme Court said today. The apex court made this observation while hearing a
Public Interest Litigation that was filed by Advocate ML Sharma. He argued that retail trading is barred under the existing FEMA regulations.
Attorney General GE Vahanvati admitted that the government had erred since the RBI had not effected any change in the regulations after 2008.
The Supreme Court bench of Justice RM Lodha and Justice AR Dave then said that "it is an irregularity that is curable and as soon as
amendment is brought, it would be cured." Stating that this irregularity is not enough to warrant a stay on the policy, the court emphasised that
RBI must amend the rules without delay. "This isa must before the policy is given a legal shape," the judges said. They demanded to know

when the RBI will take the necessary steps. Vahanvati assured that he will ask the RBI governor to immediately amend the FEMA

regulations. The court, however, rejected the petitioner's other contention that prior approval from the President or Parliament was needed for
the Centre's notification on FDI in retail.
" This assumption that the policy has to be in the name of the President is flawed and unfounded. The Constitution does not provide that
the policy should be in the name of the President," the judges said.
Pointing out that Parliament does not look into policies, the court said that a policy can be deemed as incorrect only if the relevant

notification is ultra vires of the law. The court has given the government time till the next hearing on Nov 5 to amend the FEMA regulations.
It is to be noted that the Trinamool Congress walked out of the ruling coalition just days after the UPA allowed 51 per cent FDI in retail. The
exit of the Mamata Banerjee-led party meant that the government was reduced to a minority.

India can recover faster than China: RBI deputy governor

Beijing, Sep 30: India can recover from global economic slowdown faster than China as the economy is driven by domestic consumption,
but the country needs to" get its act together" for this to happen, Reserve Bank Deputy Governor An and Sinha said here today. Speaking to PTI,
Sinha also said "confidence issues like the general pessimism and not-so-good-feel factor also affected the economy".
"Both economies (India and China) are affected by the global economic slowdown but India being a domestic consumption driven economy
could recover faster," he said.
"But for that we have to get our act together. Being dependent on domestic economy, we would be less affected by export sector
performance. So, that could be our strength. But we have to get our act together and whatever weaknesses we have to get around them," he said
responding to a question. When asked what should be done by India to arrest the slide in growth, he said, "We have to get hold of inflation. If we
get hold of it, growth will have better prospect. Once growth takes off things would be better."
Retail inflation in India is in double digits at 10.03 per cent. RBI had been repeatedly saying that focus of its monetary policy is
on controlling inflation.
"We must realise that even if we put our domestic situation on sound footing, what happens in the rest of the world, we cannot be totally
immune to that. So you will not have the same growth rate as we would have had if the world economy is in good shape.
"Sinha also blamed "not so good feel factor", besides the global economic slowdown, for the current domestic situation. "One reason is
global economic slowdown. That has affected us is the trade channel. We are not export dependent but exports suffered due to global economic
crisis. Apart from trade issues, confidence issues like the general pessimism and not so good feel factor also affected the economy," he said
apparently referring to criticism about policy paralysis.
"Sentiments are very important when it comes to taking business decision," he said.

Bank ATMs stop sucking in cash after RBI direction


New Delhi, Sept 23: Next time you go to an ATM to withdraw cash, don't worry about the banknotes getting sucked back by the
machine if not collected immediately, as RBI has asked all banks to immobilise the 'cash retraction facility'.
At the same time, customers will have to be extra careful in collecting the cash dispensed by the ATM, as they cannot later claim
the money from the bank, which was the case when this 'cash retraction facility' was in place at the ATMs.
Most of the banks, including HDFC Bank, Axis Bank and Canara Bank, have already removed the cash retraction facility from all their
ATMs, while the withdrawal process for this facility is underway for few remaining ATMs.
As per RBI directions, the banks are communicating to their customers about the withdrawal of this facility, under which the cash goes
back into the ATM machine if not collected within a stipulated time, which is generally 10-15 seconds, but varies from bank to bank. The
facility was initially implemented to avoid the cases of someone else getting the money, if the actual cardholder forgets to collect the withdrawn
cash before leaving the ATM. However, RBI in the past one year has come across banks reporting several instances of frauds pertaining to mis-
use of cash retraction facility at the ATMs.
The typical modus operandi has been to hold on to a few pieces of notes in ATM machines that have cash retraction system, while allowing one
or two pieces of notes to be retracted and then claiming non-receipt of cash. Since retracted transactions are credited back to the customer's
account, the balance in the fraudster's account remains unaffected even after collecting bulk of the delivered cash. The ATMs do not have the
capability to count the pieces of retracted notes, thus leaving a loophole for committing such frauds.

2G scam: RBI Governor Subbarao to appear before JPC

New Delhi, Sept 7: RBI Governor D Subbarao, who was the Finance Secretarywhen 2G licences were allocated, will appear before the Joint
Parliamentary Committee examining the issue as a witness on Sept 18. He was the Finance Secretary between Apr 2007 and Sept 2008. The
controversial 2G radiowave licences were allocated in Jan 2008. Sources said the meeting of the committee slated for Sept 14, in which former
Cabinet Secretary KM Chandrasekhar was to appear, has been rescheduled.
A fresh date will be decided to call Chandrasekhar, who was the top bureaucrat between Jun 2007 and Jun 2011. The JPC meeting on Sept
18 is taking place after a gap of nearly a month. BJP members had stormed out of the proceedings on Aug22 insisting on calling Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram as witnesses before the panel. Sources said besides the former Cabinet Secretary, the
other "essential witnesses" the committee seeks to
examine before drafting the report are the Telecom and Finance Secretaries, former LawSecretary, the present incumbent and the Attorney
General.
It is not yet clear whether the six BJP members on the panel will attend the next meeting. Amid growing bitterness between ruling and
opposition sides in the 30-member JPC, five out of the six BJP members present at the meeting had walked out, claiming that Congress members
had used foul language when they pressed for calling Singh and Chidambaram. Congress had refuted the allegation.

RBI may hike NPA provision ratio if needed: K C Chakrabarty

MUMBAI: RBI Deputy Governor K C Chakrabarty has come down heavily on banks showing higher profits without providing
adequately for bad loans, and said if need be, the central bank may hike provision coverage ratio (PCR) levels.
"Why banks need to show profits as high as 25 per cent? They can show 5 per cent growth in their profits. If they are not doing
(providing more), I will increase it(PCR)," he told PTI in an interview.

Expert’s views on RBI monetary policy review

Mumbai, (IANS) The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) kept key policy rates unchanged in the first quarter review of monetary policy announced
Tuesday. Following are the comments from experts on the monetary policy statement.

–Anis Chakravarty, senior director, Deloitte in India


“This is a bold step from RBI and it certainly needs to be appreciated. With headline inflation persistently remaining above comfort level
of 7 percent, this policy stance of retaining repo rate looks justified despite obvious impact of tight monetary policy for past two years on the
growth slowdown. Although SLR is expected to maintain liquidity levels, it may not show any significant impact as the liquidity conditions have
been already eased out since the April policy, which
included injection of liquidity by way of open market operations.

– Harsh Pati Singhania, president, International Chamber of Commerce India and managing director, JK Paper Ltd.

“It is disappointing that RBI has chosen not to cut policy rates. Reduction in the SLR does not make any difference in the present
scenario as credit growth has not picked up due to higher rates of interest. In fact, by following this path RBI is not taking any constructive steps
to either control inflation or stimulate economic growth. It has squarely put the onus of reviving growth with the government.
May be it is time we started looking at the paradigm of living with a slightly higher
inflation accompanied with higher growth.

– R.V. Kanoria, president, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI)

“The central bank and the government need to coordinate and find a solution to balance the monetary policy, improve the fiscal situation
and to get growth back in the economy. The situation in the economy calls for urgent and decisive action and the two primary agencies – RBI
and government – responsible for policy making should prepare an effective roadmap together.”

– Chandrajit Banerjee, director general, Confederation of Indian Industry (CII)

“A cut in policy rates, at this juncture, would have done much to infuse liquidity in the system which is facing tight liquidity conditions,
spur investments among corporates and rev up growth momentum in the economy. RBI had sufficient headroom to cut interest rates as falling
global commodity prices, stable core and manufacturing inflation would ease the pressure on prices. In fact, despite having raised interest rates
in the past, inflation has persisted while adversely impacting industrial growth and business sentiment. The need of the hour is administrative
actions on the part of the government to ease supply bottlenecks which will help ease inflationary pressure.”

– Siddharth Shankar, Director, KASSA group


“Monetary policy will not stimulate growth nor would government policy, now it is for the industry to act and make itself more efficient.
From the policy front I feel government will have to keep the social and agricultural aspect in mind, much over the industry. Growth in India is
likely to remain low with high inflation something and this is a very uncomfortable situation of stagflation. While the GDP forecast is6.5 percent
to my mind it would be below 6 percent mark for current financial
year.”

– A Sakthivel, chairman, Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC)

“The Reserve Bank of India has kept interest rate unchanged, thereby keeping the cost of funds very high. The industry was expecting
downward trend in the interest rate so that cost of manufacturing can be reduced.”

– Murthy Nagarajan, head, fixed income, Tata Asset Management Limited

“RBI focus is clearly on managing inflation expectations getting retrenched in the economy even against a scenario of falling GDP
growth rates. By cutting SLR, it is releasing more money for banks who have SLR at the margin, to lend to the corporate sector. RBI has stated
it is ready to do what is required, if government cuts its subsidy burden and reduce supply side bottleneck pressure on the
economy.”

– Lalit Kumar Jain, chairman, Kumar Urban Development and president, CREDAI

“There is once again disappointment from RBI. There was no change in the rates in previous policy announcement and the real
estate sector was expecting a rate cut this time. Both, the developer community and the home buyers are unhappy with results of the policy and
this will affect the already disheartened real estate sector. We don‘t see any positive policies from government which w
ill boost the real estate sector and economy as well. We keep our fingers crossed and hope the next credit policy will bring some cheer to the
industry.”8
