ABSTRACT
I did my summer internship in ING Vysya bank. It was a business banking department and it was located in Karol Bagh. On the first day I met the branch manager of the bank Mr. Uday Choudhary. He assigned me my mentor who was the relationship manager of the business banking division of ING Vysya Mr. Anshul Dhamija. In the first week he gave me two files of the company which he himself completed. Reading those files I learnt how banks give loans, what are the important documents needed to get the sanction letter. On the second week I was assigned to do cold calling. I was given a data of another private bank. In my whole internship I made 15 customers who gave me time to meet them. And out of those 15 I converted 1 myself with the help of my mentor. The client is Sahib Textiles. They make ladies suits. On a daily routine , my time was divided. From 10 to 1 pm I use to do cold calling. After lunch I used to meet all those people who have approved and would like to meet me. After meeting them I used to come back to my office and had to report to my mentor. The client that I converted was Sahib Textiles. They make ladies suits. They needed a working capital of 4.25 crore. After checking there balanced sheet, profit and loss account statement and there last six month bank account. I gave his case to my mentor, who finally approved his loan. The financials of ING Vysya is in a very healthy stage. All the ratios are showing vast improvements, be it the capital adequacy ratio, the net profit margin. All of the financial ratios has done better than the previous years. There total assets, market cap have also gone up from the previous years. The key learning that I learnt was the fact that I saw the real corporate world. What is the pressure that each employee faces each day. I was working in a professional working environment with professional working people. This was my real learning. Apart from that I worked on real projects, learned how banks gives business loans to there customers. I also learnt how to communicate with different types of clients. Working on the real time project made me learnt how to read a bank statement. This internship also helped me make new friends like Mr. Uday Choudhary and Mr. Anshul Dhamija, who were my boss. I would thank them to give me such a immense opportunity to work with them.

BANKING INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

STRUCTURE BANKS IN INDIA: In India banks have separated in different groups. Each group has its own benefits and limitation operating in India. Each has its own dedicated target market. Few of them work in rural sector while others work in both rural and urban. Many of them are catering in cities. Some of them are of Indian origin while others are of foreign origin. The banks in India are

GROWTH TRENDS The Indian banking market is growing at an astonishing rate, with assets expected to reach US$1 trillion by 2010. An expanding economy, middle class, and technological innovations are all contributing to this growth. The countrys middle class accounts for over 320 million people. In correlation with the growth of the economy, rising income levels, increased standard of living, and affordability of banking products are promising factors for continued expansion. The Indian banking Industry is in the middle of an IT revolution, focusing on the expansion of retail and rural banking. Players are becoming increasingly customer-centric in their A approach, which has resulted in innovative methods of offering new banking products and services. Banks are now realizing the importance of being a big player and are beginning to focus their attention on mergers and acquisitions to take advantage of economies of scale and/or comply with Basel II regulation. Indian banking industry assets are expected to reach US$1 trillion by 2010 and are poised to receive a greater infusion of foreign capital, says Prathima Rajan, analyst in Celent's banking group and author of the report. The banking industry should focus on having a small number of large players that can compete globally rather than having a large number of fragmented players."

TECHNOLOGY IN BANKING In the six decades of independence banking has evolved in four different phases. During the fourth phase important initiatives were taken with regard to improve the banking system. The entry of foreign banks resulted in a paradigm shift in the way banking was done in India. The arrival of foreign banks and private banks with there superior state of the art technology pushed the Indian banks to adopt latest technology in market, so that they could retain there customer base. Information technology has been used under two different avenues in banking. One is communication and connectivity and other is Business process reengineering. Information technology enables sophisticated product development, better market infrastructure, implementation of reliable techniques for control of risks and help the financial intermediaries reach geographically distant and different market. In India banks as well as other financial entities entered the world of information technology and with Indian financial network(INFINET). INFINET, a wide area satellite network (WAN) using VSAT(very small aperture technology) was jointly set up by Reserve Bank of India and Institute for Development and research for banking in1999. INFINET which was initially comprised only public sector banks was opened for participation by other categories of members. The information technology act 2000 has given legal recognition for creation, transmission, and retention of electronic data to be treated as a valid proof in the court of law The Reserve Bank of India has assigned priority to the up gradation of technology in the banks. Substantial progress has been made for developing a modern, efficient, integrated and secure payment and settlement system for the financial service sectors. Modernization of clearing and settlement system through MICR based cheque clearing, popularizing electronic clearing services (ECS) and integration of RBI-EFT scheme with funds transfer schemes of bank, introduction of centralized fund management system (CFMS) are significant milestones in this regard.

32

The coverage of electronic clearing services has been significantly effective to encourage non paper based fund and develop a centralized facility for effective payment. The scheme for electronic fund transfer operated by the reserve bank has been augmented and now it is present in 13 cities. The centralized fund management system (CFMS) which would enable banks to obtain account wise and centre wise position of their balances has been implemented in a phased manner from November 2001. Membership of INFINET has been opened to all the banks in addition to those in the public sector banks. At the base of all the interbank message transfers using the INFINET is the structured financial messaging system (SFMS). It would serve as a secure communication carrier with templates for intra and interbank messages in a strict message format that will facilitate straight through messaging. All the interbank messages will be stored and switched to central hub at Hyderabad while the intra bank messages will stored in the bank gateway. Security standards of SFMS will match the international standards. Information technology has immense untapped potential in banking. Strengthening the information technology in banks could improve the effectiveness of asset liability of banks. Building up of a related data base would strengthen and enhance the forecasting of liquidity of banks at the branch level. This could enhance the risk management capabilities of banks.

LEGAL/ REGULATORY ISSUES RELATED TO BANKING

Banks works under various legal frameworks most important of them are, the Banking regulation act 1949, Basel II norms, RBI act, Negotiable Instruments act. BANKING REGULATION ACT 1949 The banking regulation act was passed as banking companies act and it came into force in 16/3/49. Subsequently it was changed to Banking regulation act on 1/3/66. BASEL II NORMS Basel II is the second of the Basel accords which are recommendation on the banking laws and regulations issued by banking committee on banking supervision. The purpose of Basel II norms is to create international standards that banking regulators can use when creating regulations about how much capital does banks needs to put aside to guard against the types of financial and operational risks banks face. Advocates of Basel II believe that such an international system can help protect the international financial system from many types of problem that arise should a bank or a series of banks collapse. In practice Basel II attempts to accomplish this by setting up rigorous risks and capital management requirement designed to ensure that the banks hold capital reserves appropriate to the risks the banks exposes itself to through its investment and lending practices. Generally speaking this rules says that the greater the risk the bank exposes itself, the greater the capital bank requires to safeguard its solvency and overall economic stability. OBJECTIVES OF BANK REGULATION The objectives of bank regulation, and the emphasis, vary between jurisdiction. The most common objectives are 1. Prudential -- to reduce the level of risk bank creditors are exposed to (i.e. to Protect depositors) 2. Systemic risk reduction -- to reduce the risk of disruption resulting from Adverse trading conditions for banks causing multiple or major bank failures 3. Avoid Misuse of Banks -- to reduce the risk of banks being used for criminal Purposes, e.g. laundering the proceeds of crime 4. To protect banking confidentiality 5. Credit allocation -- to direct credit to favored sectors

GENERAL PRINCIPAL OF BANK REEGULATION Banking regulations can vary widely across nations and jurisdictions. This section of the article describes general principles of bank regulation throughout the world. MINIMUM REQUIREMENT Requirements are imposed on banks in order to promote the objectives of the Regulator. The most important minimum requirement in banking regulation is Minimum capital ratios. SUPERVISIORY REVIEW Banks are required to be issued with a bank license by the regulator in order to carry on business as a bank, and the regulator supervises licensed banks for compliance with the requirements and responds to breaches of the requirements through obtaining undertakings, giving directions, imposing penalties or revoking the bank's license. MARKET DISCIPLINE The regulator requires banks to publicly disclose financial and other information, and depositors and other creditors are able to use this information to assess the level of risk and to make investment decisions. As a result of this, the bank is subject to market discipline and the regulator can also use market pricing information as an indicator of the bank's financial health.

BANKING STANDARDS
Recognizing that it is necessary, in the public interest, to ensure that banks evolve comprehensive codes and standards for fair treatment of customers of banks It is necessary to have an independent watch dog to ensure that banks deliver services in accordance with such codes and standards; It is necessary to ensure that the institutional mechanism is autonomous, independent and effectively monitors and enforces the compliance of such Codes and Standards. In November 2003, RBI constituted the Committee on Procedures and Performance Audit of Public Services under the Chairmanship of Shri S.S.Tarapore (former Deputy Governor) to address the issues relating to availability of adequate Banking Services to common man. The mandate to the Committee included identification of factors that inhibited the attainment of best customer services and suggesting steps to improve the quality of banking services to individual customers. The Committee felt that in an effort to continuously upgrade the package of services that banks offered to their customers there was a need of benchmarking of such services. After in depth study at the grass root level the Committee concluded that there was an institutional gap for measuring the performance of banks against a bench mark reflecting the best practices (Code and Standards). Therefore, the Committee recommended setting up of the Banking Codes and Standards Board of India broadly on the lines of Banking Codes and Standards Board functioning in U.K. The Banking Codes and Standards Board of India has been registered as a separate society under the Societies Registration Act, 1860. Therefore, it would function as an independent and autonomous body. The Banking Codes and Standards Board of India is not a Department of the RBI. Reserve Bank has agreed to lend it financial support for a limited period. It is an independent banking industry watch dog to ensure that the consumer of banking services get what they are promised by the banks. To ensure that the Board really functions as an autonomous and independent watchdog of the industry, the Reserve Bank also decided to extend financial support to the Board by way of meeting its full expenses for the first five years. This was to enable the Board to reach its economic critical mass that will make it truly independent in its functioning and take a view on any bank without its existence coming under any threat. On its part, RBI would derive supervisory comfort in case of banks which are members of the Board. In substance, the Board has been set up to ensure that common man as a consumer of financial services from the banking Industry is in a no way at a disadvantageous position and really gets what it has been promised.

MARKET ANALYSIS
THE PRODUCT MIX: The banks primarily deal in services and therefore, the formulation of product mix is required to be in the face of changing business environmental conditions. The changing psychology, the increasing expectations, the rising income, the changing lifestyles, the increasing domination of foreign banks and the changing needs and requirements of customers at large make it essential that they innovate their service mix and make them of world class. Against this background, we find it significant that the banking organizations minify, magnify combine and modify their service mix. PRODUCT PORTFOLIO: The bank professionals while formulating the product mix need to assign due weight-age to the product portfolio. By the concept product portfolio, emphasis is on including the different types of services/ schemes found at the different stages of the product life cycle. The portfolio denotes a combination or an assortment of different types of products generating more or less in proportion to their demand. The quality of product portfolio determines the magnitude of success. It is excellence of bank professionals that help them in having a sound product portfolio. We find the composition of a family sound, if members of all the age groups are given due place. Like this, the composition or blending of a service mix is considered to be sound, if well established and likely to be profitable schemes are included in the mix. The bank professionals are supposed to perform the responsibility of composing the same. An organization with a sound product portfolio gets a conducive environment and successes in increasing the sensitivity of marketing decisions. If the banks rely solely on their established services and schemes, the multidimensional problems would crop up in the long run because when the well established services/schemes would start saturating or generating losses, the commercial viability of banks would of course, be questioned. It is in this context, that we find designing of a sound product portfolio essential to an organisation. We cant deny that the product portfolio of the foreign banks is found sound since they keep their eyes moving. The innovation, diffusion, adoption and elimination processes are taken due care. The public sector commercial banks need to innovate their service and this makes a strong advocacy in favour of analyzing the product portfolio. THE PRICE MIX In the formulation of product mix, the pricing decisions occupy a place of outstanding significance. The pricing decisions or the decisions related to interest and fee or commission charged by banks are found instrumental in motivating or influencing the target market. The Reserve Bank of India and the Indian Banking Association are concerned with the regulations. The rate of interest is regulated by the RBI and other charges are controlled by the Indian Banking Association. To be more specific in the Indian setting, we find this component of the marketing mix significant because the banking organizations are also supposed to sub serve the interests of weaker sections and the backward regions. The public sector commercial banks in particular are supposed to play developmental role with societal approach. It is natural that this specific role of the public sector commercial banks complicates the problem of pricing.

37

Pricing policy of a bank is considered important for raising the number of customers vis--vis the accretion of deposits. Of course, there are a number of factors to influence the process but it is also right to mention that the key role in the entire process is played by the Reserve Bank of India. To be more specific when we find a number of domestic and foreign banks working in the Indian economy, the Reserve Bank of India bears the responsibility of making the business environment conductive. The non-banking organizations and foreign banks have been found attracting customers by offering to them a number of incentives. The potential customers or investors frame their investment plans in the face of pricing decisions made by the banking organizations. While formulating the pricing strategies, the banks have also to take the value satisfaction variable into consideration. The value and satisfaction cant be quantified in terms of money since it differs from person to person, keeping in view the level of satisfaction of a particular segment, the banks have to frame their pricing strategies. The policy makers are required to be sure that the services offered by them are providing satisfaction to the customers concerned. The pricing decisions may be to bit liberal, if the potential customers are found shifting to the non-banking investments. In this context, it is pertinent that pricing is used as motivational tool. The banking organizations are required to frame two-fold strategies. First, the strategy is concerned with interest and fee charged and second, the strategy is related to the interest paid. Since both the strategies throw a vice-versa impact, it is pertinent that banks attempt to establish a correlation between the two. It is essential that both the buyers as well as the sellers have a feeling of winning as shown in figure.

The RBI has to be more liberal so that the public sector commercial banks make decisions in the face of changing business conditions. There is no doubt in it that the commercial banks bear the responsibility of energizing the social marketing, they are also supposed to bear the social costs. It is also right that the foreign banks have been found making the business environment more competitive. These emerging trends necessitate a close look on the pricing problem. The policy makers find it difficult to bring a change since the regulations of the RBI make things more critical. The expenses are not regulated by the RBI and the banking organizations are forced to increase the budgetary provisions. The sources of revenue are regulated which complicates the 38

task of bank professionals. This makes it essential that the Reserve Bank of India, the Government of India and the banking organizations thing over this complicated issue with a new vision.

PROMOTION MIX In the formulation of marketing mix the bank professionals are also supposed to blend the promotion mix in which different components of promotion such as advertising, publicity, sales promotion, word-of-mouth promotion, personal selling and telemarketing are given due weight age. The different components of promotion help bank professionals in promotion the banking business. Advertising: Like other organizations, the banking organizations also us this component of the promotion mix with the motto of informing, sensing and persuading the customers. While advertising, it is essential that we know about the key decision making areas so that its instrumentality helps bank organization both at micro and macro levels. Finalizing the Budget: This is related to the formulation of a budget for advertisement. The bank professionals, senior executives and even the police planners are found involved in the process. The formulation of a sound budget is essential to remove the financial constraint in the process. The business of a bank determines the scale of advertisement budget. Selecting a Suitable vehicle: There are a number of devices to advertise, such as broadcast media, telecast media and the print media. In the face of budgetary provisions, we need to select a suitable vehicle. The latest developments in the print technology have made print media effective. The messages, appeals can be presented in a very effective way. Making Possible creativity: The advertising professionals bear the responsibility of making the appeals, slogans, messages more creative. The banking organizations should seek the cooperation of leading advertising professionals for that very purpose. Instrumentality of branch managers: At micro level, a branch manager bears the responsibility of advertising locally in his / her command area so that the messages, appeals reach to the target customers of the command area. Of course we find a budget for advertisement at the apex level but the business of a particular branch is considerably influenced by the local advertisements. If we talk about the cause-related marketing, it is the instrumentality of a branch manager that makes possible the identification of local events, moments and make advertisements condition-oriented. Public Relations: Almost all the organization need to develop and strengthen the public relations activities to promote their business. We find this component of the promotion mix effective even in the banking organizations. We cant deny that in the banking services, the effectiveness of public relations is found of high magnitude. It is in this context that we find a bit difference in the designing of the mix of promoting the banking services. Of course in the consumer goods manufacturing industries, we find advertisements occupying a place of outstanding significance but when we talk about the service generating organizations in general and the banking organizations in particular, we find public relations and personal selling bearing high degree of importance. It is not meant that the banking organizations are not required to advertise but it is meant that the bank executives unlike the executives of other consumer goods manufacturing organizations focus on public relations and personal.

39

Personal Selling: The personal selling is found instrumental in promoting the banking business. It is just a process of communication in which an individual exercise his/her personal potentials, tact, skill and ability to influence the impulse buying of the customers. Since we get in immediate feed back, the personal selling activities energies the process of communication very effectively. The personal selling in an art of persuasion. It is a highly distinctive form of promoting sale. In personal selling, we find inter-personal or two-way communication that makes the ways for a feed back. There is no doubt in it that the goods or services are found half sold when the outstanding properties are well told. This are of telling and selling is known as personal selling in which an individual based on his/her expertise attempts to transform the prospects into customers. Sales Promotion: It is natural that like other organisations, the banking organizations also think in favour of promotional incentives both to the bankers as well as the customers. The banking organizations make provisions for incentives to the bankers and call this bakers promotion. Like this, the incentives offered to the customers are known as customers promotion. There are a number of tools generally used in the different categories of organizations in the face of the nature of goods and services sold by them. The gift, contests, fairs and shows, discount and commission, entertainment and traveling plans for bankers, additional allowances, low interest financing and retalitary are to mention a few found instrumental in promoting the banking business. As and when the banking organizations offer new services and schemes, the tools of sales promotion are required to be innovated. This is with the motto of stimulating the new and old customers. An important thing in the very context is the changing needs and requirements of customers/prospects. The bank professionals bean outstanding task of studying the competitors strategies which would he them in initiating the process of innovation. Here it is important to mention the promotional incentives to the customers would focus on decisions related to the selection of a tool. There are a number of considerations to streamline the process. The bank professionals are supposed to study the market conditions and make necessary suggestions, specially regarding the incentives. It is a blending process and bank professional have to be sure the whatever the provisions, they make are fulfilled on priority basis. More incentives more efficiency or a vice-versa conditions more efficiency, more-incentives motivate bankers substantially. THE PLACE MIX This component of the marketing mix is related to the offering of services. The two important decision making areas are making available the promised services to the ultimate users and selecting a suitable place for bank branches. The selection of a suitable place for the establishment of a branch is significant with the viewpoint of making the place accessible and in addition, the safety and security provisions are also found important. The banking organizations are not free to open a branch since the Reserve Bank of India regulates the subject of branch expansion but so far as the management of branch is concerned, the branch managers have option to select a place which is convenient to both the parties, such as the users and the bankers. In the Indian perspective, the protection to the banks assets and safety to the users and bankers need due weight age. The vulnerable area or regions need adequate provisions to make the branch safe. The management of office is also found

40

significant with the viewpoint of making the services attractive. The furnishing, civic amenities and parking facilities cant be overlooked. Another important decision making area is related to the offering of services. This draws our attention on the behavioral profile of bankers. The bankers in general and the front-line-staff in particular bear the responsibility of making available the services-promised to the ultimate users without any distortion often a gap is found generated by front-line-staff that makes an invasion on the image of bank. The bank professionals or a branch manager is required to be sure that whatever the promise have been made regarding the quality of services are not distorted. The RBI and the different public sector commercial banks are required to manage the distribution process intelligently and professionally. Thus, the place mix is found to be an important decision making area which requires due attention, both at macro and micro levels. If the banking organizations sell the promises it is essential that the end users get the same without any distortion. THE PEOPLE Sophisticated technologies, no doubt, inject life and strength to our efficiency but the instrumentality of sophisticated technologies start turning sour if the human resources are not managed in a right fashion. Generation of efficiency is substantially influenced by the quality of human resources. It is against this background that a majority of the management experts make a strong advocacy in favour of developing quality people and late, the people management has been include dint he marketing mix of organizations is general and the service generating organizations in particular. Not only the public sector commercial banks but almost all the public sector organization and albeit other government departments, of late, have been facing the problem of quality people resulting into inefficiency, deceleration in the rate of overall productivity and profitability or so. The front-line staff are rough and indecent, the branch mangers are helpless and even the bankers have been found involved in the unfair practices. The public sector commercial banks need to assign on overriding priority to the development of quality people majority of the management of the experts have realized the significance of quality people in the development of an organization and the boardrooms are also found changing their attitudes. The first task before the banking organizations at the apex level is to overhaul the recruitment processes. While fixing criteria for selection, they need to assign due weight age to the ethical values. The education and training facilities are required to be innovated. The process of identification and inculcation need to be managed carefully. The foreign banks and the private sector commercial banks reward for efficiency and at the same time also demotivate the inefficient bankers. This helps them in improving the efficiency of even the inefficient people. The development of human resources makes the ways for the formation of human capital. Incentives, of course, inject efficiency and the organizations offering more incentives succeed in motivating the people. Having better and cost-effective control over operations. Enriching the job content of employees at all level (by reducing the drudgery of mundane operations and increasing the analytical content of their work). Improving the quality of decision-making, a must in the fast changing environment.

MACRO vs MICRO ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

PROBLEMS FACED BY INDIAN ECONOMY o FALL IN SAVINGS RATIO The savings ratio is the % of income that is saved not spent. A fall in the savings ratio implies that consumer spending is increasing; often this is financed through increased borrowing. EFFECTS OF FALL IN SAVINGS RATIO HIGHER LEVEL OF CONSUMPTION This results in increase in Aggregate Demand. The increase in AD will cause an increase in economic growth and lower unemployment. However, rising Aggregate Demand may cause inflation. Inflation will occur when growth is faster than the long run trend rate. This is now a potential problem in the India. Inflation has recently gone above 12%

BOOM AND BUST A fall in the savings ratio is usually accompanied by a rise in confidence. It is the rise in confidence which encourages borrowing and consumers to run down savings. Therefore, there is always a danger that a falling savings ratio can be a precursor to a boom and bust situation.

ECONOMY MORE SENSITIVE TO INTEREST RATES With a fall in the savings ratio interest rate changes will have a bigger effect in reducing spending. This is because levels of borrowing are higher and therefore a rise in interest rates has a significant impact on increasing interest repayments. Also, higher rates will not be increasing incomes from savings as much.

BALANCE OF PAYMENT With higher levels of consumer spending, there will be an increase in imports. Therefore this will lead to deterioration in the current account. The current account deficit could put downward pressure on the exchange rate in the long term. However, some people argue a fall in the savings ratio is not a problem, but, it is just a reflection of strong economy and booming housing market, which increases scope for equity withdrawal.

42

o INFLATION Inflation is posing a serious challenge to the economic growth of India. Since Jan08 onwards, inflation in the country has surged by 8.2% to hit a 13-year high of ~12%. M3 growth in the economy too continued to remain strong at 20% (in July08), well above the RBIs comfort level of 17%. The WPI inflation rate flared up during the period driven by significant increase in the prices of commodities, primary articles and manufactured products, even though very small part of global crude price increase has been passed on to the Indian consumers. o GLOBAL RECESSION It appears that Europe, Japan and the US are entering into recession. Falling house prices, crisis in the financial system, and lower confidence could lead to a sharp downturn, with the worst still to come. Many argue that Indias growth is not so dependent on growth in the West. However, the Indian stock markets have been hit by the global crisis. Indias growing service sector and manufacturing sector would be adversely impacted by a global downturn. o RISE IN CRUDE PRICES How global crude prices would behave probably has no easy answers; however we believe that the current challenging and uncertain macro-economic conditions does not lead Indian financials into a state of crisis. But continued rise in crude prices and its resultant impact on inflation, interest rates and government finances has the potential to do so. Hence, crude price remains the key risk to our positive stance on the Indian financials. In the last couple of months oil prices have surged by 45% from US$ 100 to US$ 145 (and now back to US$ 115). India currently imports 70% of its crude requirement, resulting in pressure on government coffers on back of rising crude prices. o DEPRICIATING INR Surge in crude prices has severely impacted current account deficit of the country. This coupled with the outflow of FII investments has resulted in INR to depreciate sharply against dollar further fueling inflation. IMPACT OF ECONOMIC PROBLEMS ON INDIAN FINANCIALS The current macro-economic conditions are expected to result in o SLOWDOWN IN CREDIT GROWTH o IMPACT ON MARGINS OF BANKS

43

o PREASURE ON CREDIT QUALITY SLOWDOWN IN CREDIT GROWTH

While the rise in interest rates should lead to a moderation in demand for credit, Indian banks too are exercising caution while lending. Credit growth of 18% in FY09E and 17% in FY10E vs. 22% in FY08. Risks and uncertainties in the system have increased given the higher crude and commodity prices and its inflationary impact. This would curtail consumption, which would impact economic growth adversely. Further higher rates will not only impact the profitability of Indian corporate but also impact IRRs of various proposed capex projects. This coupled with elections next year could lead to some postponement of capex plans of corporate, leading to negative impact on demand for credit. Higher rates have particularly impacted retail loan growth. As can be seen in the exhibit below, retail loan growth has slowed down significantly from 26.5% in FY07 to ~13% in FY08. SLR Ratio of the system has started rising since mid FY08 and currently stands at 28.7%. Given the expected negative impact on credit growth. IMPACT ON MARGINS OF BANKS

During the past 18 months, CRR has increased by 400 bps to 9.0% currently and RBI has also discontinued with interest payment on CRR balances. Every 50 bps hike in CRR generally negatively impacts margins by ~5 bps. Till June08, most of the banks had restrained from hiking lending rates despite significant monetary tightening. However on account of recent measures by RBI, banks have resorted to hiking PLRs in July/August by 50-150 bps to preserve their margins. In fact in an environment, where liquidity is tight, interest rates are at elevated levels and risk premiums have increased, the banks tend to regain the pricing power. This would not only help the banks to adequately price in risks but also help protect their margins. Apart from hiking PLRs, banks are also resorting to reprising (in fact right-pricing) the loans that were sanctioned well below PLRs. Significant portion of fixed rate loans would also get re-priced over the period of 12-18 months. PRESSURE ON CREDIT QUALITY

Higher lending rates are expected to impact credit quality for the banking system. The extent of the impact on credit quality would also be bank specific given the loan mix (retail vs. corporate), proportion of unsecured lending, credit profile of corporate loan book and industry wise exposure. Indian banks fundamentals are relatively resilient with better risk management systems, dramatically improved asset quality, stronger recovery mechanisms (legal provisions) and with adequate capitalization and provisioning. Even Certain sectors (like real estate, airlines industry) might feel the stress due to the changing macro environment and rise in interest rates. Many companies where crude forms a key raw material component are expected to get hit more severely. Similarly, sectors like real estate and SMEs, which are interest rate sensitive, would face higher delinquencies if interest rates strengthen further by 100-200 bps. 44

NECESSARY INITIATIVES TAKEN BY RBI & MINISTRY OF FINANCE TO TACKLE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS

As most of economists feel that the most horrible problem which India is facing currently is inflation which has crossed 12%. To come out of these problems RBI and ministry of finance and other relevant government and regulatory entities are taking various initiatives which are as follows... RBI MONITORY POLICY With the introduction of the Five year plans, the need for appropriate adjustment in monetary and fiscal policies to suit the pace and pattern of planned development became imperative. The monitory policy since 1952 emphasized the twin aims of the economic policy of the government: o Spread up economic development in the country to raise national income and standard of living, and o To control and reduce inflationary pressure in the economy. This policy of RBI since the First plan period was termed broadly as one of controlled expansion, i.e.; a policy of adequate financing of economic growth and at the same time the time ensuring reasonable price stability. Expansion of currency and credit was essential to meet the increased demand for investment funds in an economy like India which had embarked on rapid economic development. Accordingly, RBI helped the economy to expand via expansion of money and credit and attempted to check in rise in prices by the use of selective controls. OBJECTIVES OF MONITORY POLICY PRICE STABILITY MONITORY TARGETTING INTEREST RATE POLICY RESTRUCTURING OF MONEY MARKET REGULATION OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE MARKET

WEAPONS OF MONITORY POLICY Central banks generally use the three quantitative measures to control the volume of credit in an economy, namely: o Raising bank rates o Open market operations and o Variable reserve ratio

45

However, there are various limitations on the effective working of the quantitative measures of credit control adapted by the central banks and, to that extent, monetary measures to control inflation are weakened. In fact, in controlling inflation moderate monetary measures, by themselves, are relatively ineffective. On the other hand, drastic monetary measures are not good for the economic system because they may easily send the economy into a decline. In a developing economy there is always an increasing need for credit. Growth requires credit expansion but to check inflation, there is need to contract credit. In such a encounter, the best course is to resort to credit control, restricting the flow of credit into the unproductive, inflation-infected sectors and speculative activities, and diversifying the flow of credit towards the most desirable needs of productive and growth-inducing sector. It should be noted that the impression that the rate of spending can be controlled rigorously by the contraction of credit or money supply is wrong in the context of modern economic societies. In modern community, tangible, wealth is typically represented by claims in the form of securities, bonds, etc., or near moneys, as they are called. Such near moneys are highly liquid assets, and they are very close to being money. They increase the general liquidity of the economy. In these circumstances, it is not so simple to control the rate of spending or total outlays merely by controlling the quantity of money. Thus, there is no immediate and direct relationship between money supply and the price level, as is normally conceived by the traditional quantity theories. When there is inflation in an economy, monetary restraints can, in conjunction with other measures, play a useful role in controlling inflation. FISCAL POLICY

Fiscal policy is another type of budgetary policy in relation to taxation, public borrowing, and public expenditure. To curve the effects of inflation and changes in the total expenditure, fiscal measures would have to be implemented which involves an increase in taxation and decrease in government spending. During inflationary periods the government is supposed to counteract an increase in private spending. It can be cleared noted that during a period of full employment inflation, the aggregate demand in relation to the limited supply of goods and services is reduced to the extent that government expenditures are shortened. Along with public expenditure, governments must simultaneously increase taxes that would effectively reduce private expenditure, in an effect to minimise inflationary pressures. It is known that when more taxes are imposed, the size of the disposable income diminishes, also the magnitude of the inflationary gap in regards to the availability of the supply of goods and services. In some instances, tax policy has been directed towards restricting demand without restricting level of production. For example, excise duties or sales tax on various commodities may take away the buying power from the consumer goods market without discouraging the level of production. However, some economists point out that this is not a correct way of combating inflation because it may lead to a regressive status within the economy. As a result, this may lead to a further rise in prices of goods and services, and inflation can spread from one sector of the economy to another and from one type of goods and services to another. Therefore, a reduction in public expenditure, and an increase in taxes produces a cash surplus in the budget. Keynes, however, suggested a programme of compulsory savings, such as deferred pay as an anti-inflationary measure. Deferred pay indicates that the consumer defers a part of his or her wages by buying savings bonds (which, of course, is a sort of public borrowing), which are redeemable after a particular period of time, this is sometimes called forced savings. Additionally, private savings have a strong disinflationary effect on the economy 46

and an increase in these is an important measure for controlling inflation. Government policy should therefore, include devices for increasing savings. A strong savings drive reduces the spendable income of the consumers, without any harmful effects of any kind that are associated with higher taxation. Furthermore, the effects of a large deficit budget, which is mainly responsible for inflation, can be partially offset by covering the deficit through public borrowings. It should be noted that it is only government borrowing from non-bank lenders that has a disinflationary effect. In addition, public debt may be managed in such a way that the supply of money in the country may be controlled. The government should avoid paying back any of its past loans during inflationary periods, in order to prevent an increase in the circulation of money. Anti-inflationary debt management also includes cancellation of public debt held by the central bank out of a budgetary surplus. Fiscal policy by itself may not be very effective in combating inflation; therefore a combination of fiscal and monetary tools can work together in achieving the desired outcome. DIRECT MEASURES

Direct controls refer to the regulatory measures undertaken to convert an open inflation into a repressed one. Such regulatory measures involve the use of direct control on prices and rationing of scarce goods. The function of price control is a fix a legal ceiling, beyond which prices of particular goods may not increase. When ceiling prices are fixed and enforced, it means prices are not allowed to rise further and so, inflation is suppressed. Under price control, producers cannot raise the price beyond a specified level, even though there may be a pressure of excessive demand forcing it up. In times of the severe scarcity of certain goods, particularly, food grains, government may have to enforce rationing, along with price control. The main function of rationing is to divert consumption from those commodities whose supply needs to be restricted for some special reasons; such as, to make the commodity more available to a larger number of households. Therefore, rationing becomes essential when necessities, such as food grains, are relatively scarce. Rationing has the effect of limiting the variety of quantity of goods available for the good cause of price stability and distributive impartiality. Another control measure that was suggested is the control of wages as it often becomes necessary in order to stop a wage-price spiral. During galloping inflation, it may be necessary to apply a wage-profit freeze. Ceilings on wages and profits keep down disposable income and, therefore the total effective demand for goods and services. On the other hand, restrictions on imports may also help to increase supplies of essential commodities and ease the inflationary pressure. However, this is possible only to a limited extent, depending upon the balance of payments situation. Similarly, exports may also be reduced in an effort to increase the availability of the domestic supply of essential commodities so that inflation is eased. In general, monetary and fiscal controls may be used to repress excess demand but direct controls can be more useful when they are applied to specific scarcity areas. As a result, antiinflationary policies should involve varied programmes and cannot exclusively depend on a particular type of measure only.

RATIO ANALYSIS LIQUIDITY RATIOS Liquidity ratios measures the ability of the firm to meet its current obligations (liabilities). The most common ratios that indicate the extent of liquidity or lack of it are 1) CURRENT RATIOS 2) QUICK RATIOS 3) CASH RATIOS 50

CURRENT RATIOS Current ratio is calculated by dividing current asset by current liabilities. Current ratio = current asset Current liabilities. For ING VYSYA the current ratios for last three years are. 2005-06 CURRENT RATIOS 1.66 2006-07 2.02 2007-08 2.42

As a conventional rule current ratios of 2: 1 is considered satisfactory. Looking at the current ratios of ING Vysya we can see that in the year 2005-06 the current ratio was 1.66, which is well below the standard. This shows that in 2005-06 the bank was not in the position to pay it current obligations. But in the years 2006-07 and 2007-08 the current ratio of the bank has been improving. This shows that the bank has higher safety now, because there are more current assets than current liabilities. NET WORKING CAPITAL RATIOS Net working capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities. It is considered that the bank having larger NWC has the greater ability to meet its current obligations. Net working capital ratios = NWC Net assets 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08

NWC ratio

1.03

1.11

1.19

From the table above we can see that the net working capital ratio of the bank has been increasing, which shows that the bank is much more secured now, as it can pay its current liabilities.

51

PROFITABILITY RATIOS Profitability ratios are used to asses a business ability to generate earnings as compared to expenses over a period over a time. The various profitability ratios that we will use are 1) Return on net worth 2) Interest spread 3) Earning per share 4) Net profit margin NET PROFIT MARGIN Net profit divided by net revenues, often expressed as a percentage. This number is an indication of how effective a company is at cost control. The higher the net profit margin is, the more effective the company is at converting revenue into actual profit. The net profit margin is a good way of comparing companies in the same industry, since such companies are generally subject to similar business conditions. However, the net profit margins are also a good way to to compare companies in different industries in order to gauge which industries are relatively more profitable. The profit margin is mostly used for internal comparison. It is difficult to accurately compare the net profit ratio for different entities. Individual businesses' operating and financing arrangements vary so much that different entities are bound to have different levels of expenditure, so that comparison of one with another can have little meaning. A low profit margin indicates a low margin of safety: higher risk that a decline in sales will erase profits and result in a net loss

2005-06 NET PROFIT MARGIN

2006-07

2007-08

.87

6.7

7.8

As can be seen that from the data, in 2005-06 the bet profit margin of ING Vysya was just 8.7% but in 2006-07 and 2007-08( 67% and 78%) the NPM has constantly been increasing. This

52

shows that the bank is converting its revenues into profit. This shows that the bank is safe and there is lower risk.

RETURN ON NET WORTH/RETURN ON EQUITY Return on net worth is used as a measure of a financial institutions profitability. It reveals how much profit a company generates with the money a equity shareholders have invested. It is also called return on equity. ROE/RONW = net income 100

Shareholders equity

2005-06 RONW 1.11%

2006-07 9.36%

2007-08 11%

As can be seen from the table the return on net worth or return on equity was very less in 200506(1.11%), but after that in the year 2006-07 the banks ROE/RONW started increasing. This means that for each rupee invested by the shareholders 9.36% was returned in the form of earning. In 2007-08 the banks RONW increased to 11%.

INTEREST SPREAD Interest spread is the difference between the average lending rate and the average borrowing rate for a bank or other financial institution. It is: interest income interest earning assets) - (interest expense interest bearing liabilities This is very similar to interest margin. If a bank's lending was exactly equal to its borrowings (i.e. deposits plus other borrowing) the two numbers would be identical. In reality, bank also has its shareholder's funds available to lend, but at the same time its lending is constrained by reserve requirements.

53

Changes in the spread are an indicator of profitability as the spread is where a bank makes its money

2005-06 INTEREST SPREAD 4.51

2006-07 4.23

2007-08 5.24

We can see in the table that the interest margin has been swinging. In 2006-07 the interest margin came down from the previous year which means the bank didnt made money as compared to last year. But in 2007-08 the interest margin went to 5.24. this is an indicator of profitability and proves that the bank is making money.

BALANCE SHEET RATIOS In banking the two most important ratios that are looked very closely are 1) Capital adequacy ratio 2) Return on assets 3) Loan/advances funds% CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIO CAR is a ratio of banks capital to its risk. National regulators tracks banks CAR to ensure that it can absorb reasonable amount of loss and are complying with the banking statutory capital requirements. Capital adequacy ratio is the ratio which determines the capacity of the bank in terms of meeting the time liabilities and other risk such as credit risk, operational risk, etc. In the simplest formulation, a bank's capital is the "cushion" for potential losses, which protect the bank's depositors or other lenders. Banking regulators in most countries define and monitor CAR to protect depositors, thereby maintaining confidence in the banking system

The percent threshold (9% in this case, a common requirement for regulators conforming to the Basel Accords) is set by the national banking regulator. 9% is for the existing banks.

CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIO

9.32

10.12

11.31

From the table it can be seen that ING Vysya has always had the minimum requirement capital adequacy ratio. So in that point it can be concluded that the bank has always been safe. RETURN ON ASSETS An indicator of how profitable a bank is relative to its total assets. ROA gives an idea as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. Calculated by dividing a company's annual earnings by its total assets, ROA is displayed as a percentage. Sometimes this is referred to as "return on investment". The formula for return on assets is:

2005-06 Return on assets .05%

2006-07 .13%

2007-08 .52%

As can be seen from the table that the return on assets has been increasing as the years have gone by. The ratio is significantly low as compared to other private banks, but it is catching up on it. LOAN / ADVANCES FUNDS Loans/advances constitute a major chunk of a banks assets. These also yield returns by way of interest income which contributes the largest percentage of banks profits. Lending of funds to traders, business, enterprises constitutes the main business of banking. Banks are financial intermediaries and lend the funds of depositors who themselves do not want to lend in the business directly. 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08

55

Loan / advances funds %

73.12

78.1

81.3

It can be seen from the table above that ING Vysyas loan/ advances funds I % terms have been increasing. This is a good data. Because the main profit of loans and advances is to earn profit by way of interest spread. The more the lending percentage will be the more will be profit; DEBT COVERAGE RATIOS Also known as the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR), the debt coverage ratio measures your ability to pay the property's monthly mortgage payments from the cash generated from renting the property. Bankers and lenders use this ratio as a guide to help them understand whether the property will generate enough cash to pay rental expenses and whether you will have enough left over to pay them back on the money you borrowed. The DCR is calculated by dividing the property's annual net operating income (NOI) by a property's annual debt service. Annual debt service is annual total of your mortgage payments (i.e. the principal and accrued interest, but not your escrow payments). The various debt coverage ratios are 1) Credit deposit ratio 2) Investment deposit ratio 3) Cash deposit ratio

CREDIT DEPOSIT RATIO It is the proportion of loan-assets created by banks from the deposits received. The higher the ratio, the higher the loan-assets created from deposits. Some experts contend that a high creditdeposit ratio could lead to a rise in interest rates. Consider Bank X which has deposits worth Rs. 100 crores and a credit-deposit ratio of 60 per cent. That means Bank X has used deposits worth Rs. 60 crores to create loan-assets. Only Rs. 40 crores is available for other investments. Now, the Indian government is the largest borrower in the domestic credit market. The government borrows by issuing securities (G-secs) through auctions held by the RBI. Banks, thus, lend to the government by investing in these G-secs. And Bank X has only Rs. 40 crores to invest in G-secs. If more banks like X have lesser money to invest in G-secs, what will the government do? After all, it needs to raise money to meet its expenditure. The government has two options. One, it can raise yields to make investment by banks in G-secs attractive. Or two, force the RBI to take the securities into its books. Both the options have a tendency to push up interest rates in the economy. Yields on G-secs serve as a benchmark for interest rates on other debt instruments. A

56

rise in the former, thus, pushes up interest rates on the latter. But why should interest rates rise if RBI takes G-secs into its books? Because, by doing so, the RBI releases fresh money into the system. If the money so released is large, ``too much money will chase too few goods'' in the economy resulting in higher inflation levels. This would prompt investors to demand higher returns on debt instruments. In other words, higher interest rates.

2005-06 DEBT COVERAGE RATIO 69.18

2006-07 73.21

2007-08 70.12

It can be seen from the table that the debt coverage ratio of ING Vysya has been moving up and down. A high debt coverage ratio means higher interest rate for the bank. So it can bee see that in 2007-08 the debt coverage ratio has been less than 2006-07, but still it is on the higher side.

CASH DEPOSIT RATIO Historically, and in banking theory, the cash-deposit ratio is a measure of the liquidity of banks' assets. Cash consists of cash in the vaults of banks, and balances with the Reserve Bank of India. The regulatory authorities of central banks would like to fix minimal cash ratios and to vary it according to macro policy requirements. In India, there is a minimal requirement of 3 per cent for the cash-deposit ratio. Banks like to keep the cash ratio higher than the minimum for various understandable reasons. In theory, cash does not earn banks any interest but when the RBI moves up the ratio, it often tends to pay some interest on the excess cash maintained with it. This is with a view not to hurt the earnings of banks too much in the context of regulatory requirement.

2005-06 CASH DEPOSIT RATIO 5.82

2006-07 6.94

2007-08 9.12

As it can be seen from the data, the cash deposit ratio of ING Vysya has been at satisfactory level. And it has contantantly been increasing.

As can be seen from the table net profit margin of Kotak Mahindra has been decreasing, the reason can be that they are not able to convert revenue into net profit. Thats the reason the net profit is going down and the net profit margin is showing low. RETURN ON NET WORTH/RETURN ON EQUITY ROE/RONW = net income 100

PROJECT CREDIT APPRAISAL PROCESS

1) Login of the credit file. 2) To watch out that weather the case is doable or not. 3) Preparation of the note. 4) Appraisal by the risk department. 5) Sanction letter. STEP FIRST: LOGIN OF THE CREDIT FILE In this very first step, the marketing team of the bank gets the cases on the basis of their references and the data in their hand .After that the marketing will handle over the case to the credit department along with the necessary documents for further process of the case. Following is the list of necessary documents required to log in a case Duly filled application form. Audited financials of last three years. Provisional financials of last year (if audited is not available) Bank statement of last six months(through which bank A/c the firm does the maximum banking) ITR (Income Tax Return) of Promoter/ Property owner. Vintage proof. Sanction letter of prevailing limit (if any). CIBIL FORM

62

Once all the documents are completed for log in .The case is shown in MIS as a log in by credit department. STEP TWO: DECISION OF GO-NO-GO CRITERIA BY THE CREDIT DEPARTMENT Once all the login documents are completed the process of checking of do ability (GO/NO GO) is done. In this very step the dedupe checkup is to be done. In this dedupe checkup we do a check out weather there is any overdue or default on the borrower side or not. Once the dedupe checkup is clear the credit team prepare the finspred (software for analyzing the financials) for the case with the help of the audited financials .And also check out the track record in the bank statement of client .We can check the track record with the help of the following things.

Counts of credit transactions Total amount of credit transactions (%of the ratio to turnover) Counts of debit transactions Total amount of debit transactions (%to the ratio of expenditure) Number of INWARD cheque returns Number of OUTWARD cheque returns Timely payment of EMIs and Interest. After preparing the finspread on the basis of certain ratios and track record of bank statement the credit team decides that the case is doable or not. Following are the some of the main parts or ratios on which the bank gives more emphases while to judge that the case is doable or not. LEVERAGE of the company must have the leverage of 6 according to the bank norms(i.e. TOL/TNW total outstanding liability, tangible net worth) CURRENT RATIO of the company MPBF (Maximum Permissible Bank Finance)

63

 DSCR (debt security coverage ratio) in case of term loan Profitability ratio (like gross profit margin, EBIDTA rate, PAT margin) THIRD STEP: NOTE PREPARATION Once the case is to be approved as doable a set query is send to the marketing team for further movement of case or we can say for the preparation of note In the note the credit team summarizes up all the details of the borrower. NOTE WRITING INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING Business background Process of business. comment on financial statement of the company Future plan of the company and comments on the projection. Bank statement analysis Promoters background Market reference of the client Industry scenario Detailed terms & condition of the sanction including: - Type of limit to be sanctioned (fund based CC / OD/ TL/ PC/ WCDL etc & non fund based LC/BG/For ex limit etc.) - Amount of Limit to be sanctions - Rate of interest (for fund based facility) and rate of commission (for non fund based facility) and processing fee - Detail of security (primary and collateral) - Detail of Personal guarantee. -Other terms & conditions as required. And other information specific to case to case. Once the note is prepared the case is sent to the centralized risk management department (CRMD).the risk department is totally independent from credit department the credit department sent the prepared note to risk department to examine the proposal.

64

STEP FOUR: APPRAISAL BY THE RISK DEPARTMENT In this step the risk department scrutinizes the whole proposal and they bring out the observations, and send a list of query to the credit department. As and when credit department will get a list of query raised by the risk department they replies on the same with help of the marketing department start working on them to solve out the quires along with the help of marketing department. After solving all the observation the case s uploaded for sanction to the appropriate authority as per the delegation of power by the bank. STEP FIVE: SANCTION After the uploading of the case, the case is presenting by the credit department along with marking department to the appropriate author for the sanction of the case. During the presentation of the case various observation are raised by the appropriate sanction author and on the basic of discussion, the authority decide to approve / reject or withdrawn for modification. If case is withdrawn for modification for the adding of some information or document. The credit department along with mark modifies the proposal as required by authority and again uploads the same and discuss with the authority to get it approved or rejected. Once the case got sanctioned minutes are generated. On the basis of minutes the CAL (Credit Agreement Letter) are prepared and issued to customer.

The credit appraisal process at ING Vysya bank

The credit appraisal process at ING Vysya bank is considered very thorough and conservative the bank undertakes the above steps to complete the credit appraisal process. 1. Meet the client: The bank has appointed various Relationship managers( RM) and executives who find the clients with credit requirements for their business, if the RM are

MY TAKE AWAY- KEY LEARNINGS

Through this project of mine I got exposure of working in professional environment which in itself was a great experience. I also felt that there is vast difference between academic theory and its practical applicability. I found that summer training project provides a lot of learning opportunities. I gained a lot of knowledge about the practical aspect of fieldwork. I also got familiarized with the credit appraisal process for SMEs. My exposure to the outer world through my training had given me a chance to relate my theoretical knowledge with its practical applicability. I have become more confident and I have also improved on my sense of appreciation.
