New Face of Banking
Sector 1http://indiansarkarijobs.com

Introduction
 An industry that's tightly protected by regulations has finally opened up. But this has
introduced many new challenges. Technology can help overcome these challenges
and address the new set of issues associated with modern day banking.
 The Banking sector in India has experienced a
rapid transformation. Just about a decade back
this sector was limited to the sarkari
(read nationalized) and co-operative banks.
 In past, every branch of the same bank acted as an independent information silo,
and multi-channel banking (ATMs, Net banking, tele-banking, etc) was almost non-
existent.

Introduction
 With the entry of private players into retail banking and with multi-nationals
focusing on the individual consumer in a big way, the banking system underwent a
phenomenal change.
 For the first time consumers got the choice of conducting transactions either the
traditional way (through the bank branch), through ATMs, the telephone or through
the internet. Technology played a key role in providing this multi-service platform.
 The entry of private players combined with new RBI guidelines forced nationalized
banks to redefine their core banking strategy. And technology was central to this
change.

Traditional Branch Banking
 With the emergence of various channels for banking, all over have been predicting
the end of traditional branch banking, at least in the metros and other upwardly
urban areas.
 But despite the benefits offered by other technologies in terms of lower costs or
better reach, it looks like branch banking is very much here to stay.
 Traditional banking is great because you can develop relationships with your bank
representatives. This is helpful when you’re borrowing money, looking for sound
advice or just like to know the people who are managing your money.
 Traditional banking also offers the convenience of easy deposits and withdrawals.
You know that your deposit will be in your account the same day or the next day.
And you can withdraw money during regular banking hours.
 The downside to traditional banks is that you have to stick to their business hours,
which aren’t always convenient. You cannot access your bank account when you’re
out of town, and every time you need to process a transaction you have to go to the
bank. 4http://indiansarkarijobs.com

Electronic banking
 The first Automated Teller Machines (ATM) were used in the 1960s in New
York City. Since then, advancements in technology have created a complete
electronic banking system available to consumers 24/7.
 In the 1990s, the banking sector in India saw greater emphasis being placed
on technology and innovation. Banks began to use technology to provide
better quality of services at greater speed.
 Electronic banking systems consist of a service that allows you to conduct
transactions without physically being in a bank branch. This includes
ATMs, Internet banking, pay-by-phone banking and direct deposit accounts.
 Internet banking and mobile banking made it convenient for customers to do
their banking from geographically diverse places.

Electronic banking
 In May 2004, the curtain was finally lifted on the much discussed Real Time
Gross Settlement (RTGS) system, which many analysts considered, would
revolutionize funds transfer in the Indian banking sector.
 RTGS is an electronic funds transfer system designed to allow the real time
settlement of inter bank payments in a fully secure environment.
 Some of the systems implemented earlier included the electronic clearing
service (1995), electronic funds transfer (EFT) facility (1997) and special
electronic funds transfer system (2003).

Banking channels
Banks offer many different channels to access their banking and other services:
 ATM is a machine that dispenses cash and sometimes takes deposits without the
need for a human bank teller. Some ATMs provide additional services.
 A branch is a retail location
 Call center
 Mail: most banks accept check deposits via mail and use mail to communicate to
their customers, e.g. by sending out statements
 Mobile banking is a method of using one's mobile phone to conduct banking
transactions
 Online banking is a term used for performing transactions, payments etc. over the
Internet
 Relationship Managers mostly for private banking or business banking, often
visiting customers at their homes or businesses
 Telephone banking is a service which allows its customers to perform transactions
over the telephone without speaking to a human

NEFT Process
Meaning : National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) system is a nation wide funds
transfer system to facilitate transfer of funds from any bank branch to any other bank
branch.
The National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) system has been successfully handling
significant volumes, ever since its launch in November 2005. More than 6 million
transactions were processed by the system during the month of January 2010 alone.
The coverage has also increased substantially with the participation of over
63,000 bank branches spread across the length and breadth of the country.

NEFT Process
Step-1: The remitter fills in the NEFT Application form giving the following particulars of
the beneficiary and authorises the branch to remit the specified amount to
the beneficiary by raising a debit to the remitter’s account. (This can also be done by
using net banking services offered by some of the banks.)
Beneficiary's name
Beneficiary's bank name
Beneficiary's branch name
Beneficiary's account type
Beneficiary's account No.
Beneficiary's Branch IFSC
Step-2: The remitting branch prepares a Structured Financial Messaging Solution
(SFMS) message and sends it to its Service Centre for NEFT.

NEFT Process
Step-3: The Service Centre forwards the same to the local RBI (National Clearing Cell,
Mumbai) to be included for the next available settlement. Presently, NEFT is settled in
six batches at 0930, 1030, 1200, 1300, 1500 and 1600 hours on weekdays and 0930,
1030 and 1200 hours on Saturdays
Step-4: The RBI at the clearing centre sorts the transactions bank-wise and prepares
accounting entries of net debit or credit for passing on to the banks participating in the
system. Thereafter, bank-wise remittance messages are transmitted to banks.
Step-5: The receiving banks process the remittance messages received from RBI and
effect the credit to the beneficiaries’ accounts.

Future Banking
Banking is one of the Indian Sectors which is truly consumer oriented and technically
advanced.
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is behind the scenes in getting Indian Banking domain to the
word class and highly competitive with many new systems and continues to play an
important role in introducing customer service initiatives.
The recent steps taken in various payment system segments include;
• Verified card payments (increasing card security),
• ATM payments (increasing accessibility to the public, Bringing transparency and
reasonableness in charges),
• Rationalising charges for electronic payments (NEFT / RTGS) and Collection of outstation
cheques, Mobile payments, Pre-paid payment instruments, etc.

RBI plans New Payment System:
• New RTGS
• India MoneyLine
• Mobile Payment Infra
• India Card – Rival to Visa & Master Card
Future Banking
RBI in its report “Payment Systems in India: Vision 2009-12″ has unveiled its new projects

1. Implementing a new and feature rich RTGS system :
For scaling the existing the RTS facility with latest technologies for more flexibility in
operations and better liquidity saving features.
2. India MoneyLine – A 24×7 system for one-to-one funds transfers:
The existing NEFT system operates during weekdays from 9 am to 5 pm and on Saturdays
from 9 am to 12 noon. With “India MoneyLine”, RBI is considering to extend NEFT to function
on a 24×7 basis or to develop a new system akin to the Faster Payments Service in the UK
which operates on a 24×7 basis.
3. India Card – A domestic card initiative:
RBI is actively looking at introducing a domestic payment card (India Card) and a POS (Point of
Sales) switch network for issuance and acceptance of payment cards. The need for such a
system arises from two major considerations
Future Banking

(a) The high cost borne by the Indian Banks for affiliation with international card
associations in the absence of a domestic price setter
(b) The connection with international card associations resulting in the need for routing
even domestic transactions, which account for more than 90% of the total, through a switch
located outside the country
The value of credit card transactions were Rs.65,356/- crores in 2008-09, a 100 per cent
jump in the last three years.
This means almost Rs 60,000 crore was settled outside India through Visa and Mastercard
which act as the payment link on behalf of the bank, merchant and card holder. Debit card
transactions amounted to Rs 18,547 crore in 2008-09.
So, this new initiative by RBI makes high sense and its very timely. The Indian Banks
Association is also in favour of setting up a payment card. If everything has to go as planned,
then we might see this new RBI card as a major rivalry to the existing Visa and MasterCards.
Future Banking

4. Redesigning ECS (Electronic Clearing Service) to function as a true Automated Clearing
House (ACH) for bulk transactions:
Currently, Local ECS (to facilitate bulk electronic transactions with one-to-many and many-
to-one variants) is operational at 76 centres.
Centralisation of this process is already underway.
RBI is building a technology and feature-rich ACH network by totally redesigning the existing
ECS to provide end-to-end processing in a straight-through manner.
5. Mobile Payments Settlement Network
Mobile phones are expected to emerge as an important channel for transmission of
payment instructions. Efficient mobile payments would require real time transfer of funds
with adequate security. Currently all inter-bank mobile transfers are payment instructions
for settling funds through existing payment systems. So, RBI is building a new national
infrastructure for facilitating real time mobile payments.
Future Banking

•Developing country’s own payment system seems to be a developing trend.
Europe has the Monnet debit scheme which is scheduled for 2010 launch.
•The Russian Finance Ministry announced plans to investigate the potential benefits
involved with creating their own payment system.
The main reason being to eliminate foreign systems (like visa, mastercard, american express)
to cash in the country’s local transactions.
•We be prepared for major new systems drive in the Indian Banking System and we
consumers are going to be benefited the most.
Future Banking

Thank you……
The future will not be more
of the same…
… we need to be ready..
