The history of banking refers to the development of banks and banking throughout
history, with banking defined by contemporary sources as an organization which
provides facilities for acceptance of deposits, and rovision of loans.
The history begins with the first prototypebanks of merchants of the ancient world,
which made grain loans to farmers and traders who carried goods between cities. This
began around 2000 BC in Assyria and Babylonia. Later, in ancient Greece and during the
Roman Empire, lenders based in temples made loans and added two important
innovations: they accepted deposits and changed money. Archaeology from this period in
ancient China and India also shows evidence of money lending activity.
The development of banking spread from northern Italy throughout the Holy Roman
Empire, and in the 15th and 16th century to northern Europe. This was followed by a
number of important innovations that took place in Amsterdam during the Dutch
Republic in the 17th century, and in London in the 18th century. During the 20th century,
developments in telecommunications and computing caused major changes to banks'
operations and let banks dramatically increase in size and geographic spread. The
financial crisis of 20072008 caused many bank failures, including some of the world's
largest banks, and provoked much debate about bank regulation.
INTRODUCTION OF BANK
Finance is the life blood of trade, commerce and industry. Now-a-days, banking sector
acts as the backbone of modern business. Development of any country mainly depends
upon the banking system.
The term bank is either derived from old Italian word banca or from a French word
banque both mean a Bench or money exchange table. In olden days, European money
lenders or money changers used to display (show) coins of different countries in big
heaps (quantity) on benches or tables for the purpose of lending or exchanging.
In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial institution
offering only project finance to a diversified financial services group offering a wide
variety of products and services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries and
affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first
bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYS
In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger
of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal
Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. The
merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the
High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of
Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent to the
merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both wholesale and retail,
have been integrated in a single entity.
ICICI Bank set up its international banking group in fiscal 2002 to cater to the cross
border needs of clients and leverage on its domestic banking strengths to offer products
internationally. ICICI Bank currently has subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and
Canada, branches in Singapore and Bahrain and representative offices in the United
States, China, United Arab Emirates, Bangladesh and South Africa.
ICICI Bank's equity shares are listed in India on the Stock Exchange, Mumbai and the
National Stock Exchange of India Limited and its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs)
are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
As required by the stock exchanges, ICICI Bank has formulated a Code of Business
Conduct and Ethics for its directors and employees.
At April 4, 2005, ICICI Bank, with free float market capitalization of about Rs. 308.00
billion (US$ 7.00 billion) ranked third amongst all the companies listed on the Indian
stock exchanges.
ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an Indian financial
institution, and was its wholly-owned subsidiary. ICICI's shareholding in ICICI Bank
was reduced to 46% through a public offering of shares in India in fiscal 1998, an equity
offering in the form of ADRs listed on the NYSE in fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition
of Bank of Madura Limited in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary
market sales by ICICI to institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002. ICICI was
formed in 1955 at the initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and
representatives of Indian industry.
The principal objective was to create a development financial institution for providing
medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI
transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only project
finance to a diversified financial services group offering a wide variety of products and
services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI
Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial
institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE.
The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's
access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the
ability to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-banking services.
The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a large capital
base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate relationships
built up over five decades, entry into new business segments, higher market share in
various business segments, particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast talent
pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries.
In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger
of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal
Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank.
The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by

DEFINITION
A Multinational finance service provider in India. II t is 2nd largest bank in the country
which is headed by Chanda kochhar (One amongst powerful lady by Forbes). The
finance orgnization was established in year 1994 at Vadodara, Gujarat.
OBJECTIVE
ICICI BANK was found to be popular for its customer friendly services as well as the
facility it provides to the people. It was also found that its employees are trained enough
to handle its customers. Because of all these reasons ICICI BANK has become very
much popular in todays context.
The ICICI sells securities from its own portfolio to the investors whenever it can get a
reasonable price for them. It does so for the dual purpose of revolving its resources for
new investments and for encouraging the investment habit in others and thereby
promoting a wide spread distribution of private industrial securities. Thus, unlike normal
investors the ICICI does not retain successful investments merely because they are
profitable.
ICICI assisted manufacturing industries in all sectors, that is, the private sector, the joint
sector, the public sector and the cooperative sector but the major beneficiary was the
private sector. ICICIs assistance comprised of foreign currency loans, rupee loans,
guarantees, and subscription of shares and debentures. The Corporation showed
increasing interest in the development of new industries in backward regions.
There was a remarkably significant increase in financial assistance by ICICI in
the issue of capital. Assistance is also provided for completion of formalities connected
with the public issue and of legal formalities for raising loans.
In 1982, the ICICI gave a new dimension to its merchant banking division by offering to
provided counseling for industrial investment in India to non-resident Indians and persons
origin living abroad. This is likely to prove not only the least expensive route for
technological up gradation but also a source of foreign currency funds by way of risk capital.
It has set up Venture Capital Funds for the promotion of green field companies and risk
capital investment and joined the other financial institutions in setting up SHCIL, CRISIL and
OTC Exchange of India Ltd. It has recently set up its own bank and a mutual fund like the UTI.
The Corporations vision has been extending far beyond its immediate function off unding
industrial projects. It has been looking at all sectors of the economy and wherever a need was
perceived, has designed either a new concept or a new instrument, or even a new institution to
cater to it. In this regard, its development activities have encompassed such diverse areas as
technology, financing, project promotion, rural development, human resources development
and publications.
