Syndicate bank Brief history
1. BRIEF HISTORY
Syndicate Bank was established in 1925 in Udupi, the
abode of Lord Krishna in coastal Karnataka with a
capital of Rs.8000/- by three visionaries –
Sri UpendraPai, a businessman, Sri VamanKudva, an
engineer and Dr.T M A Pai, a physician - who shared a
strong commitment to social welfare. Their objective
was primarily to extend financial assistance to the local
weavers who were crippled by a crisis in the handloom
industry through mobilizing small savings from the community. The bank
collected as low as 2 annas daily at the doorsteps of the depositors through its
Agents under its Pigmy Deposit Scheme started in 1928. This scheme is the Bank's
brand equity today and the Bank collects around Rs. 2 crore per day under the
scheme.
The progress of Syndicate Bank has been synonymous with the phase of
progressive banking in India.
Spanning over 80 years of pioneering expertise, the Bank has created for itself a
solid customer base comprising customers of two or three generations.
Being firmly rooted in rural India and understanding the grass root realities, the
Bank's perception had vision of future India. It has been propagating innovations in
Banking and also has been receptive to new ideas, without however getting
uprooted from its distinctive socio-economic and cultural ethos. Its philosophy of
growth by mutual sustenance of both the Bank and the people has paid rich
dividends.
The Bank has been operating as a catalyst of development across the country with
particular reference to the common man at the individual level and in rural/semi
urban centers at the area level.
The Bank is well equipped to meet the challenges of the 21st century in
the areas of information technology, knowledge and competition. A
comprehensive IT plan is being put in place and the skills and
knowledge of the Bank's personnel are being upgraded through a variety
of training programs to promote customer delight in every sphere of its
2. activity. The Bank has launched an ambitious technology plan called Centralized
Banking Solution (CBS) whereby 500 of our strategic branches with their ATMs
are being networked nationwide over a 4 year period. The Bank is pioneer among
Public Sector Banks on launching CBS. Our bank has already achieved CBS
implementation among all its branches. Thus, the bank is 100% CBS enabled.
