“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

Abstract

The paper fills significant gaps in knowledge about the consumer’s perspective
of Internet banking, trace its present growth and project the likely scenario. The
paper presents the data, drawn from a survey of Internet banking consumers and
the services providers (banks) that offer Internet banking and develops a
functional model for maximizing value to the consumers, which the banks may
choose to adopt Internet banking strategically. The paper identifies the
weaknesses of conventional banking and explores the consumer awareness, use
patterns, satisfaction and preferences for Internet banking vis-à-vis conventional
form of banking and also highlights the factors that may affect the bank’s
strategy to adopt Internet banking.

It also addresses the regulatory and supervisory concerns of Internet banking.


Internet banking has attracted the attention of banks, securities trading firms,
brokerage houses, insurance companies, regulators and lawmakers in
developing nations since the late 1990s. With the rapid and significant growth in
electronic commerce, it is obvious that electronic (Internet) banking and
payments are likely to advance. Researches show that impact of Internet banking
on cost savings, revenue growth and increased customer satisfaction on Industry
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

is tremendous and can be a potential tool for building a sound strategy. However,
it has raised many public policy issues before the banking regulators and
government agencies. Interestingly, reliable and systematic information on the
scope of Internet banking in Indian context is still not sufficient, particularly what
it means to the consumers and the bankers.

Chapter 1

Introduction:

Internet banking facilities enable financial institution and customers to access


their accounts, transactions and getting information on financial products &
services (Ingle and Pardeshi, 2012). Now a day’s most of the commercial banks
have launched various services through internet banking including latest service
like opening online saving accounts and demand for these services is increasing
rapidly. The concept of e-banking is fairly a new concept in India as compared to
its developed counterparts. So the paper deals with defining the concept of
Internet banking. Now with the changing times the traditional approach of
banking is being changed and banks are trying to match up with the recent
advancement in the field of technology. Revolutionary developments in
information and communication technology (ICT) in the past 20 years have
changed the way how banks deal with their bank customers. With the rapid
development of technology, internet plays a significant role in changing the
banking scenario. It provides an online platform for various banking transactions
through which it offers various services like online payment, online fund transfer,
online stock trading and online shopping etc.

The use of internet as a delivery channel for banking services is increasing


widely in banking sector.
This paper is to examine the consumer behavior with respect to Internet banking
vis-à-vis conventional banking, and to explore the possibility of blending these
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

banking systems. The paper also suggests strategies to banks to maximize the
value of services to consumers. The primary data used in the research consists
of survey conducted on a sample of 2000 consumers arrived at using relative
precision technique (Taylor, 1997). The survey includes in major cities of India,
instrument being questionnaires filled up from the consumers and personal
interaction, discussions with the front line executives of online banking divisions
of the major players, particularly their marketing and customer servicing
departments and the banking experts, personal visits at Automated Teller
Machine (ATMs), Point of Sale (POS) counters of major banks. The major
assumptions in this research are – (a) online banking is synonymous to Internet
banking (b) the behavior of the surveyed population viz. consumers and bankers
confirms to a normal distribution. The study limits itself to major cities given the
fact that Internet Banking has no geographical boundaries. The banks have
become an essential component of most of the economies as banking services
are described as “engines for economic growth” or act as “conduits towards
promoting economic growth” (Prema, 2011). In recent years the world economy
has gone through a new phenomenon which is considered as one the most
important changes since the industrial revolution, i.e. the birth of “Internet-based
Economy” (Singh, 2013). Considering the benefits of using internet the banks
have started to invest in this newly created market. At the initial level, banks
mainly focus on developing the commercial web- sites, with the purpose of
promoting their products and services using the internet (Karimzadeh and Alam,
2012). Gradually, it was realized by banks that the Internet can be an effective
distribution channel too.

 Definitions:

 E-Banking
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

E-banking is a blanket term used to indicate a process through which a


customer is allowed to carry out, personal or commercial banking
transactions using electronic and telecommunication network.
It is a product offered by banks which facilitates online banking, with the
help of which the customer can have access to the bank account in just
one click.

 Concept Of Customer Satisfaction:

Internet banking is an electronic payment system that enables customers of a


financial institution to conduct financial transactions on a website operated by
the institution, such as a retail bank, virtual bank, credit union or building society.
Online banking is also referred as Internet banking, e-banking, virtual banking
and by some other terms. This new channel has added a new dimension to the
concept of customer satisfaction and how it can be affected in a positive way. All
organizations exist and strive to become an integral part of the lives of their
customers and therefore always strive harder to keep satisfying their customers
through better channels of delivering their offerings

 History of E- Banking

Till 1990s banks are adopted traditional method of banking over branch
banking. After financial reforms, the banking business also viewed the
innovative movement of banking services. The Indian banking sector has
accepted computerisation since 1993, more out of sheer compulsion and
necessity to cope up increasing overload and incompatibility of the manual
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

system to sustain further growth. In 1993, the employees’ association of


the Indian banks (IBA) contracted an agreement with the bank management
about the introduction of computerised application in banks. This
agreement was the major breakthrough in the introduction of computerised
applications and the development of communication networks in banks.
The first initiative in the area of bank computerisation, however, stemmed
out of the landmark reports of the two committees headed by former RBI
governor, Dr. C Rangarajan. Both the reports had strongly recommended
computerisation of banking operations at various levels and suggested
appropriate architecture. In the year 1994 Reserve bank of India created a
committee under the head of W S Saraf, the committee strongly
recommended the use of Electronic fund transfer (EFT), the introduction of
electronic clearing services and extension of Magnetic Ink Character
Recognition (MICR) beyond metropolitan cities and branches. In 1996
Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India was the first to use
Electronic banking in India by introducing online banking services in
branches. Its initiatives were followed by HDFC Bank, IndusInd Bank and
Citibank, who started provided online banking facilities in 1999. Reserve
bank of India and government of India have been taken various initiatives
for the expansion and smooth functioning of Electronic banking in India.
The government of India passed the IT Act, 2000 which delivers a legal
acknowledgement to e-transactions and E-commerce.

 Statement Of Problem:

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Indian banking industry today is one of the worlds


biggest. Indian banking has become an extremely beneficial and vibrant
organization a long way from being a quiet company organization. Indian banking
has lastly awakened to the-discerning Indian 5 consumer's rising requirements.
Consumer satisfaction is now regarded to be the most significant thing in
banking because of the rise in competition. A client always wants anything and
expects that in order to meet those requirements, the bank should reach the level.
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

India has been one of the greatest IT adopters in the last century. Electronic
banking introduction has innovated and reshaped how banks operated. As
technology is now seen as the primary contribution to the achievement of the
organization’s and their key competences. So the banks, whether national or
international, invest more in offering fresh technologies via e-banking to clients.
E-bank is a significant creation that has altered the banking company. Worldwide
banks are realigning their approaches towards fresh e-banking possibilities. The
latest trend demonstrates that the majority of ' bricks and mortar ' banks move
from a ' product-centered ' model as they grow their fresh e-banking capacities.
The common characteristic of internet banking also involves the importation of
information into private accounting software. Some mobile banking platforms
promote the aggregation of accounts to enable clients to monitor all their records
in one location. E banking is seen as a congratulatory service distribution station
rather than a replacement for brick and mortar banking offices. E-banks have
improved competition between banks, and both national and international banks
are increasingly providing contemporary methods of e-banking.

Like many other banking and finance sectors, the banking industry in India is
facing a quickly evolving market, fresh techniques, economic uncertainty,
strong rivalry, and more challenging clients; and the environment change
has posed immense difficulties. In the current situation, a question is raised
as to whether or not customers are satisfied and what are, in particular, the
elements of retail banking in general e-banking which lead to consumer
fulfillment or disappointment. Understanding of present satisfaction rates
and, in specific, the main satisfaction variables are useful to those in the
sector, enabling them to concentrate and further reinforce important regions
leading to extremely satisfied clients.

 Benefits for Customers:


“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

 Less waiting time: It offers less waiting time and more convenience as
compared to the traditional banking system and significantly lowers the
cost structure than traditional delivery channels (Taft, 2007). It also reduces
the time and place limitation and it provides various benefits to consumers
so that they feel convenient while doing banking activities.

 Ease and Convenience: Internet banking is considered as more efficient in


term of ease of use and access (Jeon, 2014). It allows the consumers to
make transactions on internet provide them comfort of home or office
without going outside. It also enables consumers to keep an eye on their
transactions or account activities from their home, office or elsewhere so
they can feel satisfied and convenient. Even non transactional facilities like
ordering check books online, updating accounts, inquiring about interest
rates of various financial products etc. have become much simpler on the
internet.

 Self-service channel: Internet banking provides their customer a self-


service channel for various banking services they have not to depend on
the bank’s staff and other depending process to avail their services.
Internet banking is one of the most popular self-service banking
technologies. Continued use of self-service technology is positively
affected by buyers’ perceived usefulness (Ding, 2007).

 Save time and money: Now customers don’t have to go to branch to avail
banking services it consist various advantages such as: it will save time,
save fuel, do away from traffic, save the environment in term of reducing
the use of motor vehicles and reduce waiting time.

 Benefits for Bank:


“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

 Increased Profitability: Adoption of internet helps the banks to increase


their profitability. Banks with Internet banking have better operating
efficiency ratios and profitability as compared to banks, which are not
using internet facilities (Wamalwa, 2006). The banks can provide banking
services to the consumers using internet banking at a far lower cost as
compared to the traditional banking.

 Cost effective mechanism: The internet banking provides an opportunity of


self-service channel to the consumers. This help the banks to cut their
workforce up to a particular extent that results in reducing the
administrative costs bear by the banks. Compared to traditional banking
system, internet banking is cost-effective as it reduces the administrative
costs and paperwork needed for the bank transactions [13]. Many studies
show that electronic banking has successfully reduced operating and
administrative cost and fees.

 Reach where there is no branch : Internet banking has expanded their


geographical reach and may increase customer base through deploying
electronic delivery channels at lower cost, some banks are doing in that
way, they are providing banking services exclusively via the Internet in
some areas because they do not have bank branches in these areas.
whereas many financial institutions are using the Internet banking as a
branchless banking to satisfy their existing customers and attract new
customers in the perspective of convenience and cost effectiveness.

 Improve Customer relationship: - Maintaining the relationship with


consumers has become a strategic priority for most of the banks. Using the
internet banking technology and facilities can provide a means for banks to
develop and maintain a good relationship with their customers by offering
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

easy access to a wide range of products and services [15]. Managing a


good relationship with the customers may help to make customer loyalty,
customer retention and improve cross-selling. Internet banking facilities
have become a useful tool for improving customer satisfaction and
increasing cross-selling opportunities.

 Eco-friendly image: Another important benefit of internet banking is that it


is eco-friendly is nature. Internet banking cuts down the paper usage and
reduces pollution as people do not have to travel physically and also does
not add carbon emissions. Implementing the e-banking facilities in the
banks show the concern of the bank towards the environment [17], this
further, will help the banks to create an eco-friendly image.

 Challenges In E-Banking:

 Security Risk: The problem related to the security has become one of the
major concerns for banks. A large group of customers refuses to opt for e-
banking facilities due to uncertainty and security concerns. According to
the IAMAI Report (2006), 43% of internet users are not using internet
banking in India because of security concerns. So it’s a big challenge for
marketers and makes consumers satisfied regarding their security
concerns, which may further increase the online banking use.

 The Trust Factor: Trust is the biggest hurdle to online banking for most of
the customers. Conventional banking is preferred by the customers
because of lack of trust on the online security. They have a perception that
online transaction is risky due to which frauds can take place. While using
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

e-banking facilities lot of questions arises in the mind of customers such


as: Did transaction go through? Did I push the transfer button once or
twice? Trust is among the significant factors which influence the
customers ‟  willingness to engage in a transaction with web merchants.

 Customer Awareness: Awareness among consumers about the e-banking


facilities and procedures is still at lower side in Indian scenario. Banks are
not able to disseminate proper information about the use, benefits and
facility of internet banking. Less awareness of new technologies and their
benefits is among one of the most ranked barrier in the development of e-
banking.

 Privacy risk: The risk of disclosing private information & fear of identity
theft is one of the major factors that inhibit the consumers while opting for
internet banking services. Most of the consumers believe that using online
banking services make them vulnerable to identity theft. According to the
study consumers ‟  worry about their privacy and feel that bank may
invade their privacy by utilizing their information for marketing and other
secondary purposes without consent of consumers.

 Strengthening the public support: In developing countries, in the past,


most e-finance initiatives have been the result of joint efforts between the
private and public sectors. If the public sector does not have the necessary
resources to implement the projects it is important that joint efforts
between public and private sectors along with the multilateral agencies like
the World Bank, be developed to enable public support for e-finance
related initiatives.
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

 Availability of Personnel services: In present times, banks are to provide


several services like social banking with financial possibilities, selective up
gradation, computerization and innovative mechanization, better customer
services, effective managerial culture, internal supervision and control,
adequate profitability, strong organization culture etc. Therefore, banks
must be able to provide complete personnel service to the customers who
come with expectations.

 Implementation of global technology: There is a need to have an adequate


level of infrastructure and human capacity building before the developing
countries can adopt global technology for their local requirements. In
developing countries, many consumers either do not trust or do not access
to the necessary infrastructure to be able to process e-payments.

 Handling Technology: Developing or acquiring the right technology,


deploying it optimally and then leveraging it to the maximum extent is
essential to achieve and maintain high service and efficiency standards
while remaining cost effective and delivering sustainable return to
shareholders. Early adopters of technology acquire significant competitive
advances Managing technology is therefore, a key challenge for the Indian
banking sector.

The advent of Internet has initiated an electronic revolution in the global


banking sector. The dynamic and flexible nature of this communication channel

sector. The dynamic and flexible nature of this communication channel as well as
its ubiquitous reach has helped in leveraging a variety of banking activities. New
banking intermediaries offering entirely new types of banking services have
emerged as a result of innovative e-business models. The Internet has emerged
as one of the major distribution channels of banking products and services, for
the banks in US and in the European countries.

Initially, banks promoted their core capabilities i.e., products, services and advice
through Internet. Then, they entered the e-commerce market as
providers/distributors of their own products and services. More recently, due to
advances in Internet security and the advent of relevant protocols, banks have
discovered that they can play their primary role as financial intermediators and
facilitators of complete commercial transactions via electronic networks
especially through the Internet. Some banks have chosen a route of establishing
a direct web presence while others have opted for either being an owner of
financial services centric electronic marketplace or being participants of a non-
financial services centric electronic marketplace. ‘

The trend towards electronic delivery of banking products and services is


occurring partly as a result of consumer demand and partly because of the
increasing competitive environment in the global banking industry. The Internet
has changed the customers' behaviors who are demanding more customized
products/services at a lower price. Moreover, new competition from pure online
banks has put the profitability of even established brick and mortar banks under
pressure. However, very few banks have been successful in developing effective
strategies for fully exploiting the opportunities offered by the Internet. For
traditional banks to define what niche markets to serve and decide what
products/services to offer there is a need for a clear and concise Internet
commerce strategy.

technology.

 E-Banking Indian Perspective:

 Internet banking, both as a medium of delivery of banking services and as


a strategic tool for business development, has gained wide acceptance
internationally and is fast catching up in India with more and more banks
entering the fray. India can be said to be on the threshold of a major
banking revolution with net banking having already been unveiled.

 26% of Indian customers prefer to access services via their bank’s website,
and the same number would prefer to use a mobile app rather than talk to a
human agent.

 It has been noticed that 30% customers are such who are not aware of the
various facilities which come under the umbrella of E-Banking.

 It has been noticed that well established private banks have got dominance
in providing better e-banking services to Indian customers.

 It has also been observed that despite being educated, there is a class of
bank customers who finds online banking ‘Unsafe.’
“The Impact of E-Banking On Customer Satisfaction”

 It is recommended that banks should take initiative in organizing some


training campaigns for their customers to boost the use of internet
banking.

 Banks should try to evaluate their performance periodically through the


context of net banking facilities they provide.
