Business focus
HDFC Bank deals with three key business segments. - Wholesale Banking Services,
Retail Banking Services, Treasury. It has entered the banking consortia of over 50
corporate for providing working capital finance, trade services, corporate finance, and
merchant banking. It is also providing sophisticated product structures in areas of
foreign exchange and derivatives, money markets and debt trading and equity research.
HDFC bank policy is to charge maximum from customers while providing the same or
less service as compared to other banks. Minimum balance required for saving account
is Rs. 10,000.00 while there are banks in the market like IDBI which provide zerobalance account with far better features from HDFC saving account. Servers on
Saturdays may be down, there is no toll-free number from Delhi-NCR. A demand draft
costs Rs. 75. If you get bank statement from other branch of HDFC, it'll cost you Rs.
110 and chances are you won't be informed about these charges. And if you wish to
close your saving account before a certain period (at present six months), a certain
amount of money will be deducted from your account. Again its very likely that you won't
be informed about such charges during opening of your account.
Wholesale banking services

and agri-based businesses. For these customers, the Bank provides a wide range of
commercial and transactional banking services, including working capital finance, trade

BUSINESS MODEL
India is a diverse country with specific local requirements. It has a different ethos and
different risk profile than other regions. Superimposing international business models
that do not always reflect realities on the ground does not often work in India, he says.
Also, quick decisions and getting clearances for new products is critical. Of course, the
rise in Indias prominence has led to a change in attitudes in recent years, but these
issues persist, states Mr Aima, who was with Citi for several yea rs before joining HDFC
Bank in 1995. Foreign players enjoy two critical advantages over domestic banks,
namely global presence and international processes. However, he believes domestic
banks like HDFC Bank are steadily closing the gap.Over the past two years HDFC Bank
has taken its first steps in the global banking arena by setting up branches in Bahrain
and Hong Kong. The main focus of these international offices is to service non-resident
Indian (NRIs), a key target segment. Mr Aima, who is also in-charge of non-resident
Indian and international consumer banking at HDFC Bank, estimates NRIs account for a
quarter of the banks wealth management portfolio. We have several representative
offices across the world, but a number of international products cannot be booked in
7/31/2019 Hdfc Capstone
11/28
these offices. We realized that in order to offer international products in our product
portfolio, we needed to have a branch presence in our key markets.
HDFC Bank is not in a hurry to grow its international presence, says Mr Aima. Some
banks that have tried to grow their global footprint at a rapid pace have suffered. Ourplan is to expand slowly. First we looked as the Middle East, and now its South-East
Asia. Setting up international branches is not without its challenges. The branch needs
to run like a complete bank with the right processes and regulatory compliances in
place, he says. With the high level of investment required, often the economies of scale
dont work out. Additionally, in a new market, it takes time to establish the brand.

ATM network can be accessed by all domestic and international Visa/MasterCard, Visa

GLOBAL NETWORK
HDFC Bank, India's second largest private sector bank is planning to strengthen its
global presence. The bank is looking at countries such as Canada and Singapore to
expand its branch networks abroad. The bank has already applied for licenses in
Bahrain and Hong Kong and currently having a representative office in Dubai.
To fund the global expansion, HDFC Bank also plans to raise $1 billion (about Rs4,000
crore) from overseas markets. The bank would raise fund through different instruments
under the medium-term notes (MTN) program and the first portion of the fund would be raised
in the next 3-4 months.
HDFC Bank today inked an agreement with US-headquartered lender Wells Fargo to
offer remittance services between the two countries.
"The services will be free of cost to begin with," Wells Fargo global remittance services
executive vice-president Daniel Ayala told reporters here, after signing a non-exclusive
pact with the city-based HDFC Bank. In 2011, India became the largest recipient of
remittances with the volume touching around USD 55 billion, driven by a massive drop
in the rupee against the US currency.
After the Middle East, the US with around 35 per cent of the volume share is the largest
point of origin for remittances into the India, Ayala said.
HDFC Bank is one of the preferred remittance channels for NRIs in the Gulf.

In private sector the basic competition between HDFC , ICICI., Axis Bank, HSBC, Citi
bank . Housing Development Finance Corporation Bank or the HDFC Bank doesnt
have a very old history associated with it but still the bank has gained enough popularity
to be counted among the top 4 banks in India.Its main competitors are State Bank of
India, ICICI Bank and Axis Bank. HDFC got established after the approval of RBI for
7/31/2019 Hdfc Capstone
25/28
private Banks to be established in the country. Recently HDFC has also taken over the
Centurion Bank of India under its network. This amalgamation has made HDFC even
more powerful and has increased the worth of its assets and the number of its
branches, ATMs and customers.
With 3.15 trillion rupees in assets ($61.8 billion), the bank has been adding almost
2 million customers a year, according to Puri, and has more than doubled lending toconsumers since 2008. HDFC Banks bad-loan ratio was 0.2 percent in the quarter
ended in September, a fourth of ICICI Banks and one-tenth that of State Bank. The
bank doesnt feel left behind in the good times because it does so much better in the
bad times. Higher borrowing costs and a slowdown in economic growth as Indias
central bank ratchets up rates to curb inflation could lead to an increase in bad loans.
And HDFC Bank may face more competition in consumer lending: After a seven-year
hiatus, Indias central bank may issue new banking licenses. Meanwhile, Standard
Chartered, HSBC (HBC), and Citigroup, the foreign banks with the biggest presence in
India, continue to add branches as they target middle- and high-income consumers.
Foreign banks have a combined market share of only 4.9 percent of lending and
4.4 percent of deposits, according to data from the Reserve Bank of India. HSBC, the
second-largest foreign bank in India by number of branches, has had more than five
years of losses in its local retail-lending business in the country and is now operating at
virtually break-even. Following is the financial comparison of banks in India:

SWOT Analysis is a strategic planning method used to evaluate the Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats involved in a project or in a business venture.
It involves specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the
internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieving that
objective. The technique is credited to Albert Humphrey, who led a convention at
Stanford University in the 1960s and 1970s using data from Fortune 500 companies.
STRENGTHS

long term. The management of the bank is termed to be one of the best in the
country.
HDFC has differentiated itself from its peers with its diversified network and
revamped distribution strategy
Superior customer service vs. competitors
Large share of low-cost deposits, higher net interest margin
Better quality of assets, NPA of 0.4 per cent
WEAKNESS
High dependence on individual loans.
Major stake held by American financial groups which are under stress due to
economic slowdown.
Customer service staff needs training.
Management cover insufficient.
Sectoral growth is constrained by low unemployment levels and competition for
staff
Marginal international presence
No next line of leadership

property prices is inherent to the mortgage business

Extension overseas holds a lot of risk!
Threat from credit card collections dept.
