  • Introduction Banking in India
    Introduction Banking in India 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, and the Bank of Hindustan, both of which 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, all three of which were established under charters from the British East India Company. For many years the Presidency banks acted as quasi-central banks, as did their successors. The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India’s Independence became the State Bank of India. Origin of Banking in India Indian merchants in Calcutta established the Union Bank in 1839, but it failed in 1848 as a consequence of the economic crisis of 1848-49. The Allahabad Bank, established in 1865 and still functioning today, is the oldest Joint Stock bank in India. (Joint Stock Bank: A company that issues stock and requires shareholders to be held liable for the company’s debt) It was not the first though. That honor belongs to the Bank of Upper India, which was established in 1863, and which survived until 1913, when it failed, with some of its assets and liabilities being transferred to the Alliance Bank of Simla. When the American Civil War stopped the supply of cotton to Lancashire from the Confederate States, promoters opened banks to finance trading in Indian cotton.

  • I. State Bank of India
    COMPANY PROFILE I. STATE BANK OF INDIA OVERVIEW INTERNATIONAL PRESENCE HISTORY ASSOCIATE BANKS BRANCHES State Bank of India (SBI) (BSE: 500112, LSE: SBID) is the largest state- owned banking and financial services company in India, by almost every parameter - revenues, profits, assets, market capitalization, etc. The bank traces its ancestry to British India, through the Imperial Bank of India, to the founding in 1806 of the Bank of Calcutta, making it the oldest commercial bank in the Indian Subcontinent. Bank of Madras merged into the other two presidency banks, Bank of Calcutta and Bank of Bombay to form Imperial Bank of India, which in turn became State Bank of India. The Government of India nationalized the Imperial Bank of India in 1955, with the Reserve Bank of India taking a 60% stake, and renamed it the State Bank of India. In 2008, the Government took over the stake held by the Reserve Bank of India. SBI provides a range of banking products through its vast network of branches in India and overseas, including products aimed at NRIs. The State Bank Group, with over 16,000 branches, has the largest banking branch network in India. With an asset base of $352 billion and $285 billion in deposits, it is a regional banking behemoth. It has a market share among Indian commercial banks of about 20% in deposits and advances, and SBI accounts for almost one- fifth of the nation's loans. SBI has tried to reduce over-staffing by computerizing operations and "golden handshake" schemes that led to a flight of its best and brightest managers.

  • Sbi – Merger of Associates
    SBI – MERGER OF ASSOCIATES The cabinet approved the merger of the subsidiaries--State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur, State Bank of Hyderabad, State Bank of Mysore, State Bank of Patiala and State Bank of Travancore-- and Bharatiya Mahila Bank Limited with SBI. The approval does not come as a surprise given the government’s stated intention of encouraging consolidation among state-owned banks (this came in the this year’s union budget) even as it looks to address the issues of rising bad debts in the banking system and, at the same time, ensure efficient utilization of capital. A finance ministry spokesperson confirmed the cabinet’s decision though there was no mention of this in the official cabinet briefing. The merger will see the combined entity’s balance sheet at a whopping Rs 37 trillion, making it one of the top 50 banks in the world. “The merger of SBI and its associate banks is a win-win for both. While the network of SBI would stand to increase, its reach would multiply. One can expect efficiencies to be created from rationalization of branches, common treasury pooling and proper deployment of a large skilled resource base,” State Bank of India chairman Arundhati Bhattacharya said in a statement. “Currently, no Indian bank features in the top 50 banks of the world. With this merger, some visibility at global level is likely to increase,” she said. Shares of SBI and its subsidiaries zoomed after the cabinet’s decision. SBI’s shares were up 3.9% at Rs 215.65 apiece at close of trade on Tuesday.
