EVOLUTION
CONT..
Banking in India originated in the last decades of the 18th
century.
The first banks were The General Bank of India, which
started in 1786
Bank of Hindustan, which started in 1790; both are now
defunct
The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of
India, which originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806,
which almost immediately became the Bank of Bengal. This
was one of the three presidency banks, the other two being
the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of Madras.
The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank
of India, which, upon India's independence, became the
State Bank of India in 1955.

NATURE
FEDERAL BANKS
Federal Reserve banks are Federal Government agencies that perform many
financial services.
Their chief responsibilities are to regulate the banking industry and to
create and implement the Nation's monetary policy by controlling the money
supplythe total quantity of dollars in the country, including cash and bank
deposits. The Federal Reserve uses monetary policy to promote economic
growth while limiting inflation. During periods of slower economic activity,
the Federal Reserve may increase the money supply by purchasing
government securities and other assets. The Federal Reserve also promotes
economic growth by lowering the interest rate it charges banks for loans.
Increasing the money supply and lowering the interest rate charged to banks
that borrow money gives banks more money to lend and, hopefully, grows the
economy.
The Federal Reserve may attempt to fight inflation by selling its government
securities or raising the interest rate it charges banks, thus reducing the
amount of money banks can lend. Federal Reserve banks also perform a
variety of services for other banks, including processing checks that are
drawn and paid out by different banks.
