A Bank is a business that provides banking services for profit. Traditional banking
services include reciving deposits of money, lending money and processing transactions.
Some banks (called bank of issue) issue banknotes as legal tender./ many banks offers
ancillary financial services to make additional profit; for example: selling insurance
Currently in most jurisdictions the business of banking is regulated and banks require

Banks have long history, and have influenced economies and politics for centuries.
Traditionally, a bank generates profits from transactions fees on financial services and
from the interest it charges for leading. In recent history, with historically low rates

Banking in India originated in the first decade of 18th century with the General Bank of
India coming into existence in 1786. this was followed by Bank of Hindustan. Both these
banks are now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India
being established as “The Bank of Bengal” in Calcutta in June 1806. A couple of decades
later, foreign banks like credit lyonnais started their Calcutta operations in the 1850’s. at
that point of time, Calcutta was the most active trading port, mainly due to the trade of
the British Empire, and due to which banking activity took roots there and prospered. The
first fully Indian owned bank was the Allahabad Bank, which was established in 1865.
By the 1900s, the market expanded with the establishment of banks such as Punjab
National Bank in 1895 in Lahore and Bank of India, in 1906, in Mumbai- both of which
were founded under private ownership. The Reserve Bank of India formally took on the
responsibility of regulating the Indian Banking Sector from 1935. After India’s
Independent in 1947, the RBI was nationalized and given broader powers.
In nutshell banking regulations act, 1947, defines a banking company as one, which
transacts the business of the banking in India. The business of banking in turn means
accepting, for the purpose of lending or investment of money from the public repayable

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
CHAPTER-3
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Data collection
PRIMARY data is data that you collect yourself using such methods as:
• Direct observation - lets you focus on details of importance to you; lets you see a
system in real rather than theoretical use (other faults are unlikely or trivial in
theory but quite real and annoying in practice);
• Surveys - written surveys let you collect considerable quantities of detailed data.
You have to either trust the honesty of the people surveyed or build in self-
verifying questions (e.g. questions 9 and 24 ask basically the same thing but using
different words - different answers may indicate the surveyed person is being
inconsistent, dishonest or inattentive).
• Interviews - slow, expensive, and they take people away from their regular jobs,
but they allow in-depth questioning and follow-up questions. They also show non-
verbal communication such as face-pulling, fidgeting, shrugging, hand gestures,
sarcastic expressions that add further meaning to spoken words. e.g. "I think it's a
GREAT system" could mean vastly different things depending on whether the
person was sneering at the time! A problem with interviews is that people might
say what they think the interviewer wants to hear; they might avoid being
honestly critical in case their jobs or reputation might suffer.
• Logs (e.g. fault logs, error logs, complaint logs, transaction logs). Good,
empirical, objective data sources (usually, if they are used well). Can yield lots of
valuable data about system performance over time under different conditions.
Primary data can be relied on because you know where it came from and what was done
to it. It's like cooking something yourself. You know what went into it. A primary data
source is something that originates from first-hand knowledge of the person referenced in
the data or from a first-hand witness. In my report I collected it through personal
interview.
A secondary data source means that the information is simply second-hand. If you
write your own life history, the data you include would be considered primary. If you
write about incidents in the lives of extended family (which you did not witness) the
data is secondary.
There's a lot more secondary data than primary data, and secondary data is a whole lot
cheaper and easier to acquire than primary data. The problem is that often the reliability,
accuracy and integrity of the data is uncertain.
In short, primary data is expensive and difficult to acquire, but it's trustworthy. Secondary
data is cheap and easy to collect, but must be treated with caution.
Data analysis
The research worker bases mostly the study on observation method. The worker
indulges in interviewers with concerned personnel’s also. The information and data so
collected has been presented in a report form to achieve the desired outcomes of the
objectives of the study. In this way a meaningful conclusion has been drawn.

SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS
The Standard Chartered has its strength in providing excellent customers service as
compare to the other private banks and the nationalized banks. Secondly, its 150 years of
vast experience in providing excellent banking solutions and the multinationals origin of
the bank i.e. from London, is helping a lot to the bank in expending its business
operations across Indian territories. And, thirdly the values added services provided by
the bank. Thirdly, the value added services provided by the bank with the ever on keep
WEAKNESS
The SCB has on its disadvantages the weak network of the bank as compared to the other
private banks and the nationalized banks as SCB has just started expanding its business
operations across the Indian cities & therefore can find more numbers of branches and the
ATM counters of HDFC & ICICI than Standard Chartered Bank in and around the
potential cities.
But now SCB is getting over these weaknesses in a very positive way
OPPORTUNITY
There is a good opportunity for the Standard Chartered and other banks to expand there
banking business as the interest rates has been continuously dropped by the RBI &
therefore one can see more currency floating in the market &for which the bank provide
the solutions. Home Loans, personal loans, credit cards & current accounts with different
slab rates and the added facilities are being offered by the banks with much reduced
formalities to tap more of the customers and therefore the SCB can expand its business
by concentrating more on the value added services vis-a-via the other banks.
THREATS
Their is a potential threat to the Standard Chartered Bank & other banks if SBI goes on
line all over India, as they have already started their online operations in metros. So, once
SBI goes on line, the cuatomer will obviously go for that as SBI and its allied 7
subsidieries i.e. State Bank of Patiala, State Bank of hyderabad, satte bank of Bikaner,
etc, have a long network of about 9000 branches in rural, semi urban and urban areas.
Also as SBI is leading Nationalized bank of India & therefore for the customer who
generally prefer Government Banks vis-a-viz private banks because of the risk of the
payment associated with the later one, the SBI will eatup the private banks by giving on
line services.
So the only way for private banks and SCB to maintain the market shares is to provide
the best of the customer services compared to nationalized SBI and by giving new value

CHAPTER-9
CONCLUSION
After going through the various products and services being offered by the STANDARD
CHARTERED BANK, the bank ranks amongst the top most players in the multinational
