Overview of Banking
The banking system in India is significantly different from that of other Asian
nations because of the countrys unique geography social and Economic characteristics .
India has a large population and land size, diverse culture, and extreme disparities income
,which are marked among its regions. There are high levels of illiteracy among a large
percentage of its population but, at the same time, the country has a large reservoir of managerial
and technologically advanced talent between about 30 to 35 percent of the population resides in
metro and urban cities and the rest is spread in serveral semi-`urban and rural centers.
The country s economic policy framework combines socialistic and capitalistic feature
with a heavy bias towards public sector investment. Indian as followed the path of growth led
export rather than the exported growth of other Asian economies, with emphasis on self-
reliance through import substitution. These features are reflected in the structure, size, and
diversity of the countrys banking and financial sector.
The banking system has had to serve the goal of economic policies enunciated in successive five
year development plans, particularly concerning equitable income distribution, balanced regional
economic growth, and reduction and elimination of private sector monopolies in trade and
industry.
In order for the banking industry to serve an instrument of state policy, it was the subjected to
various nationalization schemes in different phases (1955, 1969, and 1980).As a result, banking
remained internationally isolated (few Indian banks had presence abroad in international
financial centers) because of preoccupation with domestic priorities, especially massive branch
expansion and attracting more people to the system. Moreover, the sector has been assigned the
role of providing support to other economic sector such as agriculture, small-scale industries,
export, and banking activities in the developed commercial centers (I, e., metro, urban, and a
limited number of semi-urban enters).
The banking systems international isolation was also due to strict branch licensing controls on
foreign banks already operating in the country as well as entry restrictions facings new foreign
banks.
THE STRUCTURE OF INDIAN BANKING
The Indian banking industry has Reserve Bank of India as its regulatory authority. This is
a mix of the Public Sector, Private Sector, Co-operative banks and foreign banks. The Private
