BANKS AND BANKING

Banks are institutions that take care of the
money of individuals and corporates,
provide loans to people for business or
personal use. They also offer a wide range
of services like exchange of foreign
currency, Investment Banking, Mutual
Funds, Insurance Business, D-mat services,
Online trading of shares, providing public
utility services like e-tickets, payment of
bills, educative services etc.
Beginning of Accounting
Systems
Kautilya, in 330 B.C. recognised the
importance of accounting methods in
economic enterprises. He developed
Book-keeping rules to record and classify
economic data. He also linked the
successful enforcement of rules and
regulations to their clarity, consistency
and completeness. He also emphasised
the role of ethics in the economic
activities.

of

History of Banking in India

There were three oldest Banks
Bank of Bengal
Bank of Bombay
Bank of Madras
These banks were called Presidency Banks.
They merged in 1925 to form the Imperial
Bank of India, which after independence
became State Bank of India.
Reserve Bank of India came into existence in
1935 which took the responsibility of
regulating Banking sector as Central Bank in
India.
Banking Scenario after

Independence
In 1948, the Reserve Bank of India was

nationalized, and it became an
institution owned by the Government of
India.
In 1949, the Banking Regulation Act was
enacted which empowered the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) "to regulate, control,
and inspect the banks in India."
Nationalisation of
Banks
On July 19, 1969, 14 major banks

were nationalised.
On April 15, 1980 another 6
banks were nationalised.
With the nationalisation, the
banking in India shifted from
Class banking to Mass Banking
Liberalisation
In the early 1990s the Govt

embarked on a policy of liberalisation
and gave licences to a small number
of private banks, which came to be
known as New Generation tech-savvy
banks like Global Trust Bank, UTI
Bank(now re-named as Axis Bank),
ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank.
Current Banking
Scenario
Currently,
India
has
81
scheduled
commercial banks (SCBs) 28 (19
Nationalised banks + 8 SBI Group + 1 IDBI),
29 Foreign banks and 24 Private banks.
They have a combined network of over
53,000 branches and 17,000 ATMs.
The public sector banks hold over 75
percent of total assets of the banking
industry, with the private and foreign banks
holding 18% and 7% respectively.
Scope of Career in
Banks
A career in the banks has always been a

sought-after one. Fascination with
banking services has never been higher
than at present. With the advent of
private and foreign banks, the interest
of youth in joining banks has only
increased further. Another notable
factor has also been the pay package
which has fattened considerably with
the coming of these banks.
Opportunities
As the industry is growing there is no

dearth
of
opportunities.
In
nationalized banks, one can expect
regular promotions while in private
banks it is performance that is
rewarded.
As financial services get automated,
the industry requires a large number
of computer experts.
Career in Banking-Positions for

Entry
Openings are available at various
levels: from bank clerks to probationary
officers (PO), IT Officers. There is good
scope for professionals like MBAs, CAs
for Direct entry as Manager, Sr
Manager. There is scope for Technical
posts like Agriculture Officers, Industry

Features of Banking
Jobs
The best features of the job are security,
good perks and salary, besides the
prospects of loans for employees. There
is good scope for promotions. The good
thing for the job-seekers in this field are
that demand for trained professionals
has increased substantially. The latter is
true for private banks, which offer better
salaries but correspondingly less job
security.
Job Requirements
Bank jobs come with responsibility, as the

banker handles other people's money. The
person must be service-oriented and like
to look after customers.
Assess your aptitude before joining a
career in banking. The personality
required is a mix: for marketing and
meeting
customers
an
outgoing
personality is required, while for keeping
accounts a diligent and persevering
attitude is required.
Environment in Banks
One reason to be excited about

banking as a career is the rapid
change taking place. The jobs are
becoming
comfortable,
as
the
physical environment is pleasing and
computerisation has taken the load
off tedious jobs. As competition
increases, a good banker will
certainly be in great demand.
