  • State Bank of Travancore
    State Bank of Travancore Instruments Amount Rating Action (Rs. Crore)1 (October 2016) Lower Tier-II Bond Programme 250.00 [ICRA]AAA (stable); reaffirmed Lower Tier-II Bond Programme 375.00 [ICRA]AAA (stable); withdrawn Tier-II Bonds Programme-Basel III 691.00 [ICRA]AAA (hyb) (stable); withdrawn ICRA has reaffirmed the [ICRA]AAA (pronounced ICRA triple A) rating with stable outlook for the Rs. 250.00 crore lower tier-II bond programme of State Bank of Travancore (SBT). ICRA has withdrawn the [ICRA]AAA rating assigned to the bank’s Rs. 375.00 crore lower tier-II bond programme as requested by the bank, as the rated instrument has been fully redeemed and there is no amount outstanding. ICRA has also withdrawn the [ICRA]AAA (hyb) (pronounced ICRA triple A hybrid) rating assigned to the bank’s Rs. 691.00 crore Basel III compliant tier-II bonds, as no funds were raised against this rated instrument and there is no amount outstanding. The letters “hyb” in parenthesis suffixed to a rating symbol stand for “hybrid”, indicating that the rated instrument is a hybrid subordinated instrument with equity-like loss-absorption features; such features may translate into higher levels of rating transition and loss-severity vis-à-vis conventional debt instruments. The highest credit quality rating for SBT factors in its strong parentage (79% stake held by State Bank of India (SBI); rated [ICRA]AAA(stable)/[ICRA]A1+), the operational and management synergies with its parent and its well-established franchise in its area of operations (primarily Kerala) supported by the State Bank brand.

  • 1 Executive Summary Mauritius Is an Upper Middle-Income Island Nation
    Executive Summary Mauritius is an upper middle-income island nation of 1.2 million people and one of the most competitive, stable, and successful economies in Africa, with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of USD 11.9 billion and per capita GDP of over USD 9,000. Mauritius’ small land area of only 2,040 square kilometers understates its importance to the Indian Ocean region as it controls an Exclusive Economic Zone of more than 2 million square kilometers, one of the largest in the world. Emerging from the British colonial period in 1968 with a monoculture economy based on sugar production, Mauritius has since successfully diversified its economy into manufacturing and services, with a vibrant export sector focused on textiles, apparel, and jewelry as well as a growing, modern, and well-regulated offshore financial sector. Recently, the government of Mauritius has focused its attention on opportunities in three areas: serving as a platform for investment into Africa, moving the country towards renewable sources of energy, and developing economic activity related to the country’s vast oceanic resources. Mauritius actively seeks investment and seeks to service investment in the region, having signed more than forty Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements and maintaining a legal and regulatory framework that keeps Mauritius highly-ranked on “ease of doing business” and good governance indices. 1. Openness To, and Restrictions Upon, Foreign Investment Attitude Toward FDI Mauritius actively seeks and prides itself on being open to foreign investment. According to the World Bank report “Investing Across Borders,” Mauritius has one of the world’s most open economies to foreign ownership and is one of the highest recipients of FDI per capita.

In 1937 it was established at Madras (Chennai) and at birth itself like the mythical 'Hanuman', it jumped across the Indian borders and started functioning in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). Its founding father, M. Ct. M. Chidambaram Chettyar was the youngest banking genius barely under the thirties. Banking was in his genes. Normally banks in India at initial stages had the modest objective of serving the locals; but, IOB spread its wings in international markets. Again, IOB went in for partial privatization through public usually, Indian banks, as and when they ventured offering in September 2000. Imaginative title for this abroad, they turned to the West but IOB couriered to event viz. "IOB enters Dalal Street" speaks volumes the East.

  • 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.
