As required by the stock exchanges, ICICI Bank has formulated a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for its directors and employees.

industry. The principal objective was to create a development financial institution for providing medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only project finance to a diversified financial services group offering a wide variety of products and services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE. After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the move towards universal banking, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both entities, and would create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy. The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the ability to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-banking services. The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a large capital base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate relationships built up over five decades, entry into new business segments, higher market share in various business segments, particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent to the merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both wholesale and retail, have been

For the employers time is money and their time is worthwhile. Consider how much time they spend managing payroll. This equates to time taken away from revenue-producing activities. At the very least, consider the cost of computer equipment and software as well as the extensive training that is needed to run payroll internally. Outsourcing with the right payroll service provider will save the time as well as money. PROFITABILITY: Outsourcing of payroll gives the employers the freedom to get back to their business. TIME: The employers have better things to do with their time than calculating payroll. Getting salary cheques out on time is not only expected, but also a positive reflection on their company. ACCURACY: Even with the simplest of payrolls, it's easy to make mistakes. Without current and ongoing training in payroll compliance, the company could face stiff penalties and unhappy employees to boot. PRIVACY: It can be embarrassing and detrimental to morale if the wrong eyes fall on the salary cheques. Confidentiality is much easier to maintain when payroll is outsourced, particularly when the employees use direct credit.
