cheaper and more formal lending in the rural credit market. The rural economy accounts for more than two-thirds of India's population and has great untapped potential.

● Increase the profitability by accessing international financial market for procuring funds cheaply and deploy funds prudently.

● The emerging economies banking sectors are expected to outgrow those in the developed economies.● India has particularly strong long-term growth potential it could become the third largest domestic banking sector by 2050

of the banks have poor asset quality● Demanding customers are ready to jump from one bank to another when they are not satisfied with the service provided.

This causes major threat particularly to PSUs.● Threat of stability of the system: failure of some weak banks has often threatened the stability of the system

Challenges for The Indian Banking System

The banks are the lifelines of the economy and play a catalytic role in activating and sustaining economic growth, especially, in developing countries and India is no exception. Our banking system, at the present juncture is, however, facing significant challenges from several quarters.

Capital Adequacy of Banks:● Concerns have been raised about the ability of our banks to raise additional capital to support their business.● For the system as a whole, the CRAR has been steadily declining and as at the end of March 2015, it stood at 12.70% as

against 13.01% as at the end of March 2014.● Our concerns are larger in respect of the PSBs where the CRAR has declined further to 11.24% from 11.40% over the last

year.

Revision to the Priority Sector Lending Guidelines:● The banks are now required to progressively achieve 8% of lending to Small and Marginal Farmers and 7.5% to the micro

enterprises among the MSEs in a phased manner.

Global Banking and Intense Competition: ● If we look at the Indian Banking Industry, then we find that there are 36 foreign banks operating in India,which becomes a

major challenge for Nationalized and private sector banks.

40

Challenges for The Indian Banking System (ctd.)

Privacy and Security: ● Concerns have been raised about the ability of our banks to raise additional capital to support their business.Credit Card

Forgery, Cyber Security.● The instances of fake e-mails soliciting unsuspecting customers to make payments to certain bank accounts as a precursor

to receiving prize or lottery winnings from abroad, have become quite rampant.

Technology and its Impact:● PSBs are not able to cop up with the fast moving technology and thus they are losing their customer share to the private

Banks. The challenge before the PSBs is to upscale their capabilities, train their employees on the new technologies to benefit from the possibilities that adoption of technology can open up.

Rural Capital: ● Banking in India is generally fairly mature in terms of supply, product range and reach, even though reach in rural India still

remains a challenge for the private sector and foreign banks. As per Census 2011, 58.7% households (67.8% urban & 54.4% rural ) are availing banking services in the country. Thus, a significant proportion of the households, especially in rural areas, are still outside the formal fold of the banking system.

41

Global Banking Outlook

● The retail banking segment registered significant growth during 2006-2011 and has excellent potential to grow at an even more rapid pace over the forecast period.

● Europe dominates the global banking industry with 43% of total market share.

● The Asia Pacific banking industry, however, grew much faster than both the European and North American regions during 2006-2011. Rising per capita income in the region is expected to drive consumer savings and investment in banking sector.

● The massive unbanked population in India and China offers immense opportunity for banking companies. The North

American banking industry is anticipated to grow modestly in the near term.

● Rising middle class populations and escalating household incomes in emerging markets provide substantial opportunity for global banks. Rapid technological advances are leading to dramatic shifts in the banking industry as the processing cost per transaction is approaching zero while simultaneously improving efficiency. These advantages are likely to increase trading volumes at the institutional level.

42

International Banking Institutions

● International banking and financial organizations exist to encourage economic and financial stability, help facilitate trade, and help with economic development.

The World Bank:● It was originally formed shortly after World War II in an effort to rebuild the economies of war-torn countries, but its mission

is now global in scope. ● The World Bank is actually comprised of two institutions. The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development

(IBRD), which provides low-interest and no-interest loans to developing countries who cannot get financing elsewhere.● The other part of the World Bank is the International Development Association, or IDA. The IDA was started in 1960. It

works with the IBRD and focuses its efforts on the poorest countries in the world.

International Monetary Fund: ● The International Monetary Fund, commonly referred to as the IMF was created in 1944 and currently has about 188

member countries. ● One goal of the IMF is to promote international cooperation on international monetary policy. ● The IMF also tries to encourage the expansion of international trade and promote currency exchange stability. Currency

exchange rate stability means that the value of one currency in relation to another is fairly stable.

43

Banking Facts - Globally

● The global banking industry faces short-term uncertainty due to the debt crises that challenge several major economies, but total industry assets are forecast to climb to an estimated US $163,058 billion in 2017 with a CAGR of 8% over the next five years.

● In the recent years the banking industry assets in the emerging markets of the Latin America region and Asia-Pacific grew the most in 2012, at 20.5% and 9.5%, respectively. In contrast to this, while North America grew by 6.1%, during the same period Europe declined marginally by 0.5%

45

Next Decade Trends

● The next decade in banking will see both evolution and revolution. Banks must reinvent themselves, not just to respond to the pressures of today, but to be flexible enough to adapt to the world of tomorrow.

● The Transformation is necessary because banks face an array of stakeholder pressures. They must find a way to deliver improved performance for investors who have tired of high volatility but low returns on equity.

New markets: the emerging will have emerged: ● By 2030, many markets currently dubbed emerging or growth markets will have reached maturity. In Asia, Latin America

and Africa, a new set of high-growth markets will have taken their place.

Customer relationships (more personal, greater trust): ● Customers are taking more control of their financial relationships, and this trend is unlikely to change. By 2030, banks will

deepen their personal connections with customers via data analysis techniques that might seem fantastic by today’s standards.

Trade flows: ● Because most trade takes place within regions, global banks will need to leverage the expertise of strong regional

partners..

46

Next Decade Trends (ctd.)

Changing Workforce: ● Working patterns and employee expectations are changing, particularly for a new generation entering the workforce for the

first time. Banks would have to bring transformations such that Banking Job become more Glamoured and High-Tech.

Technology Reshaping Business: ● In the past decade, technology has completely transformed banking. Over the next decade, it will continue to do so. This is

critical to drive efficiency, productivity and speed to market. Banks should focus on Smartphone penetration and other factors like Digital Payments.

Payments (new markets and new models): ● Technology is changing the payments segment of the banking industry at an extraordinary rate. ● Competition from Nonbank Payment Service Providers offering services like mobile banking.● Customer demand for quicker, cheaper, anytime/anywhere payments.● More transactions managed through exchanges affected by regulation of over-the-counter derivatives.

47

Next Decade Trends (ctd.)

A new era of Competition: ● Expansion in the emerging markets would be complicated. Due to the Domestic players dominancy in most of these

countries, international banks must consider what more they can offer customers and how they can differentiate themselves from local institutions. Furthermore, many emerging markets are hard to operate in — with legal and regulatory frameworks that do not suit large global banks So International Banks need to challenge these competition through the Merger and Acquisition Strategies, so that they can bring on board their technology and efficiency to these well connected Domestics Banks.

Financing Energy Sector: ● Political and environmental factors related to energy production, combined with new technology, will require new financial

products. These are likely to encompass financing and fundraising support for large energy projects.

48

Next Decade Trends (ctd.)

Demographics (an older, more urban generation):

● Demographics will drive the future of banking. Forecasts indicate that global inhabitants will surpass 8 billion by 2030, a

population that will be ever more elderly. New banking business models will be needed to serve this aging, and

increasingly urban, demographic.

49

Conclusion

● The pre and post liberalization era has witnessed various environmental changes which directly affects the aforesaid phenomena. It is evident that post liberalization era has spread new colours of growth in India, but simultaneously it has also posed some challenges

● The biggest challenge for banking industry is to serve the mass and huge market of India. Companies have become customer centric than product centric. The better we understand our customers, the more successful we will be in meeting their needs

● Apart from traditional banking services, Indian banks must adopt some product innovation so that they can compete in gamut of competition. Technology up gradation is an inevitable aspect to face challenges.

● Also in coming decades we may be able to see Indian Banking Sector rise to top positions. For Indian Banks like ICICI and SBI which are ambitious about going globally by setting up branches in China, it’s important for them to start adopting expansion strategies of Foreign Banks.
