INTRODUCTION

Banks are life blood and the nervous system of the Indian economy. Banking plays an

important role in the economic development of a country and forms the core of the money

market in an advanced country. In India, the money market is characterized by the existence of

both the organized and unorganized sectors. The organized sector includes Commercial banks,

Co-operative banks and Regional Rural banks while the unorganized sector includes indigenous

bankers and private money lenders. Among the banking institutions in the organized sector, the

commercial banks are the oldest institutions having a wide network of branches, commanding

utmost public confidence and having the lion’s share in the total banking operations. Initially,

they were established as corporate bodies with share-holdings by private individuals, but

subsequently there has been a drift towards State ownership and control.1

In Modern times banking is the kingpin of all business activity. It is an important

instrument of mobilizing the community’s resources through institutional framework. As a

matter of fact, economic and industrial development of a country depends, is the main, upon how

efficiently funds are managed by the banks. Hence, banking plays an important in the economic

development of the country. Adequacy of capital and competency of management are the two

pillars upon which the earnings of the banks depend. Sufficiency of capital instills depositor’s

confidence, which helps in mobilizing of deposits. Increase in deposits increases the lending

business and therefore enhances the possibilities of income generation for the bank. Moreover, a

bank with a sound capital base can take business opportunity more effectively and can

concentrate well on dealing with problem arising from unexpected loses. The success and

survival of a bank depends to a great extent upon the dedication and competence of its managers.

A smart bank manager can, not only help to mobilize resources and deploy them in profitable

channels, the manager can also reduce the amount of idle balances and help to earn more profits.

The banks now focus on integrated balance-sheet management where all the relevant factors

which effect an appropriate balance sheet composition deserve consideration. Therefore various

components of balance sheet are analyzed keeping in view the strengths of a bank. Analyzing

Asset and Liability behaviour means managing both assets and liabilities simultaneously for the

purpose of minimizing the adverse impact of interest rate movement, providing liquidity and

enhancing the market value of equity. A careful designing and management of Asset and

Liability behaviour is integral part of banking business particularly because over three forth of its

resources originate from the depositors. However, the banks do not have free hand in the making

of their behaviour on both sides (asset and liabilities).

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Liquidity is the ability of an organisation to meet its financial obligations during the

short-term and to maintain long-term debt-paying ability. The long-term survival depends on

satisfactory income earned by it. A sound liquidity leads to better profitability, and it turn

reduces the probability of default risk in the future. Further, risk and return are very important

aspects to be considered while making any decision regarding a company’s finances. Therefore,

a study of liquidity, profitability, leverage, turnover, market based and their association with risk,

assessing the financial position very much necessary to evaluate the financial strength of the

bank.

three samples have significantly different means and thus belong to an entirely different

population.
