2 Introduction
The Indian Banking industry is governed by “Banking Regulation Act of India, 1949” and tightly
regulated by the apex body Reserve bank of India [1]. Indian Banking industry faced many
challenges in the past decade, rules and regulations are developed to prevent all possible bank
failures. After 2008 world financial crisis, RBI insisted Indian banks to focus on adopting an
integrated approach to risk management [2]. Indian Banks had already implemented Basel II
supervision accord. RBI has set the deadline for Basel III on or before March 31, 2019 [3]. Most
of the banks are working on framework to meet capital requirements, asset-liability match,
credit and derivatives risk management. As a result, banking industry is very closely monitored
and banks need to follow stringent rules set by RBI.

compared human capital based on number of employees, average age, income per employee,
and profit per employee and split up of head count in managerial cadres. We can see that YES

up is in line with their knowledge banking services. (Refer exhibit 12)

5.1.2 ERRC grid
We had developed the ERRC grid to eliminate, reduce, raise and create the following
factors shown in Table 3.
12
The customer who lies in the first tier in the banking sector are: Newly Employed (Salaried),
Low Income People, College Students, NRI’s Family, Unscheduled Bank Customer. We have
selected them as they use the services and continuously looking for a better opportunity to
maximize their return and have better facilities
13
Figure 9 Buyer Utility Map
Based on a study conducted with the low income customer of Africa by Vodafone [9], we proxy
the pain points to tier 3 non-customers. For understanding tier 1 and 2 pain points, we initiated
a quick survey in WhatsApp group. Results are summarized in figure 10.
14
India is expected to increase 10X by 2020 which provides good scope for investment banking
opportunity.

6 Recommendation
YES Bank is focused towards knowledge banking, so it should focus more in Product, Service,
Pricing and Delivery to attract consumer and to break away from the current fiercely fought
Red Ocean in banking.
6.1 Product strategy
The consumer of today looks for product that give value for money, are less complex, do not
carry any hidden charges, are simple and transparent. The focus for the future should
concentrate of the below factors to gain customer loyalty
The EMI should change as per season like less EMI during Festive season and high EMI
during Harvest season
Monitor and use Social Media for customer engagement
Give power of choice and decision making to consumer
17
6.3 Delivery Strategy
The delivery will play a major role in giving consumer experience that includes the look and feel
of various products and services. YES Bank should focus on below delivery strategy
Have lounge for customers to create strong brand value & loyalty within branch
Open Stores that RBI guidelines to give customer digital experience and support
Reduce no of branches and have minimally no of branches to support Stores and act as
a customer experience center
Go to complete Digitalization
Bank on Wheel or Moving Bank for unreachable areas.
MLM for banking (Incentive can be enhanced credit rating, loyalty enhancement)
