Urban Co-operative Banks have been in existence in India for several decades and as far back as from the early years of the 20th century. Till early 1966, when the provisions, albeit on a selective basis with or without modifications as were found necessary, of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 were made applicable to Co-operative societies which were carrying on banking business, urban Co-operative banks were in the unorganized sector, speaking from the point of view of Reserve Bank control over banking business/banking institutions. With the coming into being of the Banking Regulation Act,1949 ( As Applicable to Co-operative Societies ) as from 1st March,1966, such of the Primary Credit Societies as were then to be newly organized , with an initial paid-up capital of not less than one lac of rupees, could commerce banking business only after obtaining a license for the purpose from Reserve Bank Of India. Also every primary credit society, which became a primary cooperative bank after the commencement of the Act, was required to apply to Reserve Bank Of India for a license, to carry on banking business, before the expiry of three months from the date on which it so became a primary co-operative bank . It had been further provided that such primary credit society may carry on banking business until it is granted a license in pursuance of the Act or is, by a notice in writing, notified by Reserve Bank of India that a license cannot be granted to it. The above provisions of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 (As Applicable to Co-operative Societies), however, gave rise to growth of a large number of Urban co-operative banks in the country. As on 1st March 1966, when the banking Regulation Act,1949 was made applicable to Co-operative societies, while there were 403 urban CO-OPERATIVE BANK in India, there was no such bank in the state of Uttar Pradesh. The number of urban Co-operative banks all over the country, however, increased in good measure between 1966 and 1974, a majority of them primary credit societies, attaining the status of COOPERATIVE BANK purely as a result of the operation of law. The State of Uttar Pradesh however was yet lagging behind. The visionary in Shri B.D. Sahai, belonging to Kanpur, then an Executive with the Uttar Pradesh Co-operative Bank Ltd. Posted at Lucknow, saw the potential for an urban co-operative bank in the city of Kanpur which was then a hub of industrial and business activity. He provided the necessary impetus, as the driving force and moving spirit, to a small number of

persons inclined towards Co-operative principles to come together for organizing an urban co-operative bank at Kanpur. Once a set of Co-operative agreed, in principle, that an urban Co-operative bank should be organized, the whole attention shifted to the selection of a suitable name for the then proposed bank.Instead of the question what is in a name ? put normally by a few who are not discerning, the promoter Co-operative delved at length in the matter and a lot of thought process was involved in arriving at the name with which the above urban Cooperative bank was thought of being organized. The word United was a unanimous choice, as unity is the very essence of Co-operative and the very pillar on which the edifice of a Co-operative institution can be built. Further, knowing fully well that an urban Co-operative bank would be carrying on the business of banking as envisaged in the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 in terms of which banking means the accepting, for the purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public and would be functioning shoulder to shoulder with commercial banks both in the public and private sectors and would in fact be supplementary if not complementary to commercial banking, decided to have the word Mercantile as well in the name of the proposed bank. The name United Mercantile Co-operative Bank Ltd.. was thus the unanimous choice. 50 members, including as many as 11 women, joined hands and subscribed amongst themselves a total sum of Rs. 49.650 as share capital and moved an application on 9th March 1975 for registration of United Mercantile Co-operative Bank Ltd. As a Co-operative credit society under the Uttar Pradesh Co-operative Societies Act, 1965 and the society was registered under No. 2601 on 29th april 1975 under the hands of the Deputy Registrar, Co-operative Societies, Uttar Pradesh Allahabad Kanpur District Then failing under Allahabad Division of the administrative set-up.

I trust you have all received a copy of Banks Annual report for the year 2007-08 comprising the report of the Board of Directors, Audited Financial statements of the bank and with your consent, I take them as read. ECONOMIC SCENARIO The Indian Economy grew at 9% in the year 2007-08 as compared to 9.5% in the previous year. Despite the slower growth rate in 2007-08 India continues to be one of the fastest growing economies of the World. In the short run, however, one sees some stress on Indias Macro-economic Indicators. Towards the end of 2007-08, inflation started inching up due to steadily rising prices of Food grains, Metals and Crude Oil across the Globe. The industrial growth too slowed down to 5.1% in Q-4 of 2007-08 as a result of higher prices of key intermediates and slowdown in World Economic demand. The global slowdown may marginally impact Indias growth rate in the current year as compared to past few years. Year Wise Growth Rate Year Wise 2007-08 Growth Rate Deposite 111.09 Crore 9.98 %

Sri S.R. Singh (Chairman )

(31.03.08) 2008-09 (31.03.09) Advance Deposite Advance 69.08 Crore 9.07 % 130.28 Crore 11.73 % 71.71 Crore 1.04 %

BANKING ENVIRONMENT Inflation was and still continues to be a cause of concern and has crossed 12% being the highest in the last 13 years. The Reserve Bank of India placed thrust on aggregate demand management to anchor inflationary expectations. The successive increase in Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) (6% in March07 to 9% in Aug08) and 0 interest on CRR balances was complimented by increase in Repot rates to 9%. This in turn led the banking industry to increase the interest rates - both on Deposits and Advances which had significant impact on the banks net interest margins. FUTURE CHALLENGES AND ROAD AHEAD The global economy is teetering on the brink of severe economic downturn leading to a downward revision in the economic growth. The deepening credit crises in developed countries as triggered by the continuing housing slump, the pressure on US Dollar, persisting global imbalances and the soaring oil prices are slowing the growth of the world economy. As an important part of global economy, India cannot be completely insulated from the global weaknesses. The Country imports about 70% of the crude oil requirements. The higher oil import bill along with investments outflow from the weakening stock markets had resulted in the depreciation of Rupee. As industrial growth slowing down, the economic environment looks challenging to the banking industry in 2008-09 characterized by pressures on its net interest margins, treasury profits, asset quality management etc. However I am confident that India has sufficient strength in the form of higher rate of domestic savings and investments and large-sized domestic market that will help it weather the current economic slowdown. BANKS FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS In the background of the said economic environment, the performance of the bank in the year just gone by has been spectacular in the co-operative banking industry in several areas. The years results have already been covered in detail in the Annual Report. Therefore, I will present a fairly brief summary of results.

NET PROFIT I am happy to inform that the bank has recorded the highest ever profit in the history of the bank. for more detail please refer our Progress Report OTHER HIGHLIGHTS During the year under report, the paid-up Share Capital of the Bank showed a net increase of Rs. 10.53 lacs and during the same period the reserve increased by Rs. 40.47 lacs. The Deposites at Rs. 111.09 crore as on 31.03.08 showed an increase of Rs. 10.00 crore when compared to the total Deposites of Rs.101.09 crore as 31.03.07 recording an increase of about 9.89%. Lones and advances grew by Rs. 6.44 crore during the same period and stood at 69.09 crore as on 31/03/08 as growth of over 10.28%. The Credit Deposit Retio worked out to 61.97% just above the bench mark stipulated by Reserve Bank of India. The net profit of the Bank amounted to Rs. 25.16 lac for the year under report, as against Rs. 32.16 lac for the previous year. The reason for lower profit is attributable to reduction in rates of interest on advances. The Banks Capital to Risk Weighted Assets Ratio (CRAR) stood at 12.71% as on 31.03.08 as against the minimum requirement of 9%. The proportion of Banks net Non performing Assest (NPA) to Net Loans and Advances outstanding stood at 4.85% as on 31.03.08. The Bank is regular in paying insurance premium on deposits to the Deposit Insurance & Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) and has paid the premium up to the half year ended 31.03.08.
