HISTORY OF BANKING

INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY ANALYSIS:
The banking scenario in India has been changing at fast pace from
being just the borrowers and lenders traditionally, the focus has shifted
to more differentiated and customized product/service provider from
regulation to liberalization in the year 1991, from planned economy to
market.
Economy, from licensing to integration with Global Economics,
the changes have been swift. All most all the sector operating in the
economy was affected and banking sector is no exception to this. Thus
the whole of the banking system in the country has undergone a radical
change. Let us see how banking has evolved in the past 57 years of
independence.
After independence in 1947 and proclamation in 1950 the
country set about drawing its road map for the future public ownership
of banks was seen inevitable and SBI was created in 1955 to spearhead
the expansion of banking into rural India and speed up the process of
magnetization. Political compulsion’s brought about nationalization of
bank in 1969 and lobbying by Bank employees and their unions added
to the list of nationalized banks a few years later.
9
The rules of the game under which banks operated changed in 1993.
Norms or income Recognition, Assets classification and loan loss
provisioning were put in place and capital adequacy ratio become
mandatory. The cumulative impact of all these changes has been on the
concept of state ownership in banks. It is increasingly becoming clear
that the state ownership in bank is no longer sustainable.
The amendment of banking regulation act in 1993 saw the entry of new
private sector banks and foreign banks

HISTORY-
The origin of the State Bank of India goes back to the first decade of
the nineteenth century with the establishment of the Bank of Calcutta
in Calcutta on 2 June 1806, later renamed the Bank of Bengal. The
Bank of Bengal was one of three Presidency banks, the other two being
the Bank of Bombay(incorporated on 15 April 1840) and the Bank of
Madras(incorporated on 1July 1843). All three Presidency banks were
incorporated as joint stock companies sand were there salt of royal
charters. These three banks received the exclusive right to issue paper
currency till1861 when, with the Paper Currency Act, the right was
taken over by the Government of India. The Presidency banks
amalgamated on 27 January 1921, and re-organized banking entity
took assist name Imperial Bank of India. The Imperial Bank of India
remained a joint stock company but without Government participation.
Pursuant to the provisions of the State Bank of India Act of 1955, the
Reserve Bank of India, which is India's central bank, acquired a
controlling interest in the Imperial Bank of India. On 1July 1955, the
imperial Bank of India became the State Bank of India. In 2008, the
Government of India acquired the Reserve Bank of India's stake in SBI
so as to remove any conflict of interest because the RBI is the country's
banking regulatory authority.
21
SBI has acquired local banks in rescues. The first was the Bank of Bihar
(est. 1911), which SBI acquired in 1969, together with its 28 branches.
The next year SBI acquired National Bank of Lahore (est. 1942), which
had 24 branches. Five years later, in 1975, SBI acquired Krishna ram
Balder Bank, which had been established in 1916 in Gwalior State and
were identified by the same blue keyhole logo.

HOW DOES THE CREDIT INFORMATION REPORT IMPACT ME?
When you approach the Banks & Financial Institutions for credit, your
application will be evaluated on the basis of your past payment history,
existing credit lines and other factors such as income and security. A
good past payment history may lead to credit being granted faster and
on better terms.On the other hand, a poor past payment record indicate
past delinquency and can lead to denial of credit or extremely
expensive credit. Therefore prudent credit management and financial
discipline is a must to ensure a good credit history for enabling you for
smooth and faster access to affordable credit in the future.

payments will
have the most positive significant impact on your credit record.
