MAJOR WAYS HOW ICICI BANK MAKES MONEY


1) Loans:
Lending loans to borrowers from the public is a major way for commercial banks like ICICI Bank
earn money. These could be personal loan, home loan, car loan and other type of mortgages.
The money lent to a person comes from the money deposits of other customers. Banks generally
restrict the amount of withdrawals to remain solvent, especially for forwarding loans. This ensures
that the money remains within the bank.
The amount is lent to a person at a higher interest rate for a fixed period of time. As the loan amount
starts getting recovered, the bank pays a portion of the interest value to other depositors and keeps
the remaining as its earning.
Issuance of loans creates money.
2) Credit Cards:
Credit cards are unsecured loans extended by a commercial bank with the sole intention of earning
heavy interest.
Availing a credit card, limited or unlimited value, gives the person access to immediate funds and the
person is charged premium fees by the bank for extending this facility.
Initially, credit card issuing bank offer low late payment fees for the first year but from second-year
onwards, the interest rates vary anywhere between 15% and 30%.
Often, mismanagement of credit cards by the user leads to a huge debt, which ends up in a high
windfall for the bank.

3) Public Deposits
Money kept by the public in various types of savings and checking accounts is the largest source of
funds for commercial banks.
The amount accountholders entrust the bank with safekeeping earns them a very basic interest
amount. These deposits are pooled together and loaned out to other individuals or invested
elsewhere.
The banks earn interest money and share the basic percentage with the savings or checking
accountholder.
4) Debt Issuance
Commercial Banks like ICICI Bank often issue debts to raise capital. This is done to maintain
smooth banking operations and when the need arise; the banks will use sources like repurchasing
agreements to access debt funding.
The issuance of bank bonds isnt unusual but they arent a common source of issuing bank capital
also; the bank bonds are either convertible or callable in nature. The debt forms a small percentage
of total loans in commercial banks and they arent major loanable funds either.
5) Service Fees
ICICI Bank levies service fees on its customers and even though the service fees are marginal, it
forms a large chunk of commercial bank earning medium.
ICICI Bank charges service fees for ATMs, overdrafts, operating a simple savings account, issuing
debit cards, renewing debit cards, accessing internet banking and mobile banking, issuing checks,
maintaining bank lockers and more.
These fees are unavoidable since every commercial bank charges them.

Technical Analysis
Technical analysis is also frequently used as a supplement to fundamental analysis. Technical
analysis is based on the economic premise that forces of demand and supply determine the
pattern of market price and the volume of trading in a share. The greater the demand for a
companys shares, the higher its market price. The greater the supply of a companys shares in
the market, the lower the market price. The triggers for this demand and supply could also be the
fundamental news on the company. Technical analysis hopes to capture a price trend from the
previous traded prices and uses this trend to make an investment decision.
The most commonly used charts are.

the vertical line the top shows the high price for the day and down tells the lowest price for the
day. If the bubble in the middle of the vertical line then it tells the close price is in between the
low and high prices of the particular day.

Candle Stick Chart:


Candle Stick Chart can be used to identify price patterns, and are drawn from opening, high, low,
and closing data for a specific period such as an hour, day, or week. A Candle consists of two
parts or vertical extensions, the real body, i.e the rectangle, and the shadow or wick. The top and
bottom of the rectangle are determined by the opening and closing prices. If the closing price is
above the closing price, the rectangle is white, on the other hand if the closing price is below the
opening, the rectangle is blackened. The high and low for the day are wicks at the top and bottom
of the rectangle.
Bullish Patterns
Long white (empty) line: This is a bullish pattern. It occurs when prices open ear the low and
close significantly higher, near the periods high.
Hammer: A hammer is bullish, if it occurs after a significant downtrend. It is identified by a
small real body (i.e. a small range between the open and closing prices) and a long lower shadow
(i.e., the low is significantly lower than the open, high, and close). The body can be empty or
dark.
Piercing Line: This is a bullish pattern and the opposite of a dark cloud cover. The previous
formation is a long black body and the next formation is a long white body.
Morning Star: This pattern signifies a potential bottom. The star indicates a possible reversal
and the bullish (empty) body confirms this. The star fallows a black body.
Bearish Patterns:
Long black (filled-in) line: This is a bearish line. It occurs when prices open near the high and
close significantly lower, near the periods low.
Hanging Man: These lines are bearish if they occur after a significant up trend. They are
identified by small real bodies (ie, a small range between the open and closing prices) and a long
lower shadow (ie, the low is significantly lower than the open, high, and close). The bodies can
be empty or filled in.
Dark cloud cover: This bearish pattern is more significant if the second black body is below the
center of the previous body.
Evening Star: This pattern signifies a potential top. The star indicates a possible reversal and the
bearish (black) body confirms this. The star fallows an empty body.

fall down continuously. In the sideway trend we can observe that the price of
the share can move in up and downs with a small changes in the price for a
particular period. In the uptrend we can observe that the price of the share

Support and Resistance:


Once you understand the concept of a trend, the next major concept is that of support and resistance.
You'll often hear technical analysts talk about the ongoing battle between the bulls and the bears, or the
struggle between buyers (demand) and sellers (supply). This is revealed by the prices a security seldom
moves above (resistance) or below (support).
Support is the price level through which a stock or market seldom falls. Resistance, on the other hand, is
the price level that a stock or market seldom surpasses .

Support and resistance analysis is an important part of trends because it can be used to make trading
decisions and identify when a trend is reversing. For example, if a trader identifies an important level of
resistance that has been tested several times but never broken, he or she may decide to take profits as the
security moves toward this point because it is unlikely that it will move past this level.
Support and resistance levels both test and confirm trends and need to be monitored by anyone who uses
technical analysis. As long as the price of the share remains between these levels of support and
resistance, the trend is likely to continue. It is important to note, however, that a break beyond a level of
support or resistance does not always have to be a reversal. For example, if prices moved above the
resistance levels of an upward trending channel, the trend have accelerated, not reversed. This means that
the price appreciation is expected to be faster than it was in the channel.

Moving Averages
Moving averages are used to help identify the trend of prices. By creating an average of prices
that moves with the addition of new data, the price action on the security being analyzed is
smoothed. In other words, by calculating the average value of a share or indicator, day to day
fluctuations are reduced in importance and what remains is a stronger indication of the trend of
prices over the period being analyzed. The word Moving refers to the method of calculation
that takes the average value over a fixed period of time and adds the latest period data to the
calculation of the average while dropping the first period of the calculation. This ensures that
the average continues to be calculated by the same number of periods but movies with each new
period of data that occurs. Thus, the average moves along with price and changes in values as
price data is generated.
A longer term moving average such as the 200 day moving average is plotted to identify longterm trends in price. A basic approach to using moving averages is to use an appropriate period
of moving average by identifying which term of price trend the investor wants to track down. In
this approach, when price is above the moving average it is an indication of bullish behavior.
When price falls from above the moving average to below the moving average, it is a warning
that price trend being viewed may be weakening. When price rises from below the moving
average to above the moving average, it is a bullish indication of the price trend.
