HISTORY OF BANKING
Banking is nearly as old as civilization. The history of banking could be said to have started with the appearance of money. The first record of minted metal coins was in Mesopotamia in about 2500B.C. the first European banknotes, which was handwritten appeared in1661, in Sweden. Cheques and printed paper money appeared in the 1700s and 1800s, with many banks created to deal with increasing trade. The history of banking in each country runs in lines with the development of trade and industry, and with the level of political confidence and stability. The ancient Romans developed an advanced banking system to serve their vast trade network, which extended throughout Europe, Asia and Africa. Modern banking began in Venice. The word bank comes from the Italian word ban co, meaning bench, because moneylenders worked on benches in market places. The bank of Venice was established in 1171 to help the government raise finance for a war. At the same time, in England merchant started to ask goldsmiths to hold gold and silver in their safes in return for a fee. Receipts given to the Merchant were sometimes used to buy or sell, with the metal itself staying under lock and key. The goldsmith realized that they could lend out some of the gold and silver that they had and charge interest, as not all of the merchants would ask for the gold and silver

back at the same time. Eventually, instead of charging the merchants, the goldsmiths paid them to deposit their gold and silver. The bank of England was formed in 1694 to borrow money from the public for the government to finance the war of Augsburg against France. By 1709, goldsmith were using bank of England notes of their own receipts. New technology transformed the banking industry in the 1900s round the world, banks merged into larger and fewer groups and expanded into other country.

BANKING STRUCTURE IN INDIA:


In todays dynamic world banks are inevitable for the development of a country. Banks play a pivotal role in enhancing each and every sector. They have helped bring a draw of development on the worlds horizon and developing country like India is no exception. Banks fulfills the role of a financial intermediary. This means that it acts as a vehicle for moving finance from those who have surplus money to (however temporarily) those who have deficit. In everyday branch terms the banks channel funds from depositors whose accounts are in credit to borrowers who are in debit. Without the intermediary of the banks both their depositors and their borrowers would have to contact each other directly. This can and does happen of course. This is what has lead to the very foundation of financial institution like banks. Before few decades there existed some influential people who used to land money. But a substantially high rate of interest was charged which made borrowing of money out of the reach of the majority of the people so there arose a need for a financial intermediate.

The Bank have developed their roles to such an extent that a direct contact between the depositors and borrowers in now known as disintermediation. Banking industry has always revolved around the traditional function of taking deposits, money transfer and making advances. Those three are closely related to each other, the objective being to lend money, which is the profitable activity of the three. Taking deposits generates funds for lending and money transfer services are necessary for the attention of deposits. The Bank have introduced progressively more sophisticated versions of these services and have diversified introduction in numerable areas of activity not directly relating to this traditional trinity 8

INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY ANALYSIS:


The banking scenario in India has been changing at fast pace from being just the borrowers and lenders traditionally, the focus has shifted to more differentiated and customized product/service provider from regulation to liberalization in the year 1991, from planned economy to market. Economy, from licensing to integration with Global Economics, the changes have been swift. All most all the sector operating in the economy was affected and banking sector is no exception to this. Thus the whole of the banking system in the country has undergone a radical change. Let us see how banking has evolved in the past 57 years of independence. After independence in 1947 and proclamation in 1950 the country set about drawing its road map for the future public ownership of banks was seen inevitable and SBI was created in 1955 to spearhead the expansion of banking into rural India and speed up the process of magnetization. Political compulsions brought about nationalization of bank in 1969 and lobbying by bank employees and their unions added to the list of nationalized banks a few years later. Slowly the unions grew in strength, while bank management stagnated. The casualty was to the customer service declined, complaints increased and bank management was unable to item the rot. In the meantime, technology was becoming a global phenomenon lacking a vision of the future and the banks erred badly in opposing the technology up gradation of banks. They mistakenly believed the technology would lead to retrenchment and eventually the marginalization of unions. 10

The problem faced by the banking industry soon surfaced in their balance sheets. But the prevailing accounting practices unable banks to dodge the issue. The rules of the game under which banks operated changed in 1993. Norms or income Recognition, Assets classification and loan loss provisioning were put in place and capital adequacy ratio become mandatory. The cumulative impact of all these changes has been on the concept of state ownership in banks. It is increasingly becoming clear that the state ownership in bank is no longer sustainable. The amendment of banking regulation act in 1993 saw the entry of new private sector banks and foreign banks.

HISTORY OF HDFC BANK


14

FOUNDERS
MR.HASMUKHBHAI PAREKH
If ever there was a man with a mission it was Hasmukhbhai Parekh, our Founder and ChairmanEmeritus, who left this earthly abode on November 18, 994. Born in a traditional banking family in Surat, Gujarat, Mr. Parekh started his financial career at Harkisandass Lukhmidass - a leading stock broking firm. The firm closed down in the late seventies, but, long before that, he went on to become a towering figure on the Indian financial scene. In 1956 he began his lifelong financial affair with the economic world, as General Manager of the newly-formed Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India (ICICI). He rose to become Chairman and continued so till his retirement in 1972. At the ripe age of 60, Hasmukhbhai started his second dynamic life, even more illustrious than his first. His vision for mortgage finance for housing, gave birth to the Housing Development Finance Corporation - it was a trend-setter for housing finance in the whole Asian continent. He was a true development banker. His building up HDFC without any government assistance, is itself a brilliant chapter in financial history. His wisdom and warmth drew people from all walks of life to him, for advice, guidance and inspiration.

15

A soft spoken man of few words, Mr. Parekh nevertheless held strong and definite views with a quiet conviction. He was always concerned with building bridges, improving and encouraging communication between people. He was also a writer in his own right. There are over 200 published articles by him, full of incisive comments on finance and economics. In 1953 he brought out a volume called: The Bombay Money Market. It detailed the intricate working of the Indian money market. His works in Gujarati - Hirane Patro, Hirane Vadhu Patro occupy pride of place in Gujarati literature. In 1992, the Government of India honoured him with the Padma Bhushan Award. The London School of Economics & Political Science conferred on him an Honorary Fellowship. But there was much more to the man than his financial genius. In his own unassuming way, Hasmukhbhai devoted all his life to raising resources for philanthropic causes. He was one of the Founder Members of the Centre for Advancement of Philanthropy, and its Chairman till 1993. He took active interest in the Bombay Community Public Trust, designed specifically to serve the needs of the city's underprivileged citizens. When Mr. Deepak Parekh took over as Chairman from Hasmukhbhai, he said: "Taking over from H.T. Parekh is a formidable task; his vision. brought about not only an institution, but an entire concept which has proved itself to be of lasting importance." In his last years, developments in the financial sector brought him some measure of satisfaction. Says ICICI Chairman, N. Vaghul: "The most gratifying aspect about his life is that values he cherished all his life, came into reality in the last years. opening up the financial sector, and deregulation of lending rates were issues he stood for all his life, and this happened before he passed away." Farewell dear Hasmukhbhai! All of us will miss not only H.T. Parekh the financial wizard, but much more so, the man. The only and best tribute we can pay to such 16

an individual is to try and follow in his footsteps, keeping in mind his high ideals and philanthropic outlook.

Market Segmentation is defined as the process of splitting customers, or potential customers, in a market into different groups, or segments, within which the customers share a similar level of interest in the same or comparable sets of needs satisfied by a distinct marketing proposition; it is also explained as a marketing technique that targets a group of customers with specific characteristics, i.e. a particular group that has its own distinct customer profile and buyer characteristics so that for marketing purposes, it can be targeted separately from other segments of the market. It is a key ingredient for successful marketing as it simplifies the targeting, positioning and the planning process.

Market Segmentation simplifies the firms product, pricing, promotion and distribution strategies and also facilitates planning 66

and organizing function of management more easily and cost effectively; but it requires a thorough understanding of the customers needs.

A business must analyze the different needs of the market segments; their internal strengths and weaknesses; external opportunities and threats; and various others factors like the mission, vision, values, beliefs, attitudes, norms and standards of the organization; as well as the competitors strategy, social and cultural factors, economic environment, global perspective, demographic environment, technological and political / legal aspects before deciding their own niche.

used for the segmentation. 2. 3.

Relevant: - it should justify the expected profits and the growth potential. Accessible: - the target customers must be reachable and servable for the

program for its customers. Market segmentation is an effort to increase a companys precision marketing. A market segment consists of large identifiable group within a market with similar wants, purchasing power, buying attitudes or buying habits . As

For the bank finance itself is the product now it is not an easy task to manage this finance. As bank has to keep watch on the deposits of its millions of customers and also it has to manage its own large financial base. As in recent it is popular No finance no business, for the bank Finance itself is business. There are different types of organizational structure such as group organization, line organization, line and staff organization. HDFC Bank has line of authority and line of authority is vertical i.e. authority passes from top to bottom and responsibility passes from bottom to top level management.
