  • Competition Booster May
    RBI/ BANKING/ BUSINESS NEWS THIS MONTH May 1 The deadline for switching to new format bank cheques under the cheque truncation system (CTS) ended on 30th April 2014.Transactions with cheques that have magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) and not CTS technology will from 1 may 2014 be delayed, with banks likely to take four days or more from the date of deposit to credit the amount. May 6 The Reserve Bank of India allowed minors above the age of 10 to open and operate savings bank accounts independently.This was to promote the objective of financial inclusion and to bring uniformity among banks in opening and operating minors’ accounts. May 7 The RBI has asked banks not to impose penalties on customers who don’t maintain a minimum balance in any dormant account as part of a consumer protection initiative. The RBI gave relief to borrowers as it directed banks not to levy any penalty on individual borrowers for pre-payment of floating loans. Floating loan products include housing, corporate, vehicle and personal loans. Some banks are charging pre-payment penalty of up to 2% of the outstanding loans. May 9 Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on 9 May 2014 barred Indian companies from raising the External Commercial Borrowings (ECB) from overseas branches and subsidiaries of Indian banks for refinance or repayment of the Rupee loans raised from domestic banking system. The notification of the central bank for changes in the ECB policy comes into force with immediate effect. May 12 Easing norms for functioning of overseas branches of Indian banks, the Reserve Bank has permitted them to offer structured financial and derivative products, a move that would help in improving their income.
