INTRODUCTION

EVOLUTION OF BANKING IN INDIA During the early Muslim and Mughal periods the indigenous bankers played an important role in financing trade and lending money to the businessmen and rulers. However, with the development of modern banking India began with the banking activities undertaken by the English agency houses at Calcutta and Mumbai, which combined banking with trading. It appears that the earliest bank on western lines was established at Chennai in as early as 1683. M/s Alexander and co. established the first joint stock bank, the bank of Hindustan, at Calcutta in 1770. The bank was bound up in 1832 after failure of the Founder Company. Presidency banks at Calcutta (1806), Mumbai (1840) and Chennai (1843). Besides ordinary banking functions, these banks also functioned as bankers of the government. In 1921, these three banks were amalgamated to give birth to the Imperial Bank of India. It was this bank, which performed some of the functions of a central bank also unit the establishment of Reserve Bank of India in 1935. The imperial bank was nationalized as the State Bank of India in 1955. The first joint stock bank with limited liability, the general bank of India, was set up in 1786, but it perished in 1793. The act of 1860 permitted the Organization of joint stock banks with limited liability. As a result some big banks came into existence, prominent among them being the Allahabad bank (1865), the Punjab national bank (1894), and the Peoples bank of India, the Alliance bank of Simla (1865), the Oudh Commercial bank (1881), the Punjab National bank (1894), and the Peoples 4

bank of India (1901) up to 1874, 14 joint stock banks with limited liability were established mostly by the Europeans. The first fully Indian bank was the Oudh commercial bank followed by the Punjab National bank and the Peoples bank of India. However, all the banks established during this period, except the Allahabad bank and the Punjab national bank, failed subsequently. The next stage of the development of joint stock banking began in 1906 with the launching of the Swadeshi Movement. As a result the bank of India (1906), the Canara bank (1911) and a large number of small banks were established before the out break of First World War in 1914. In 1913, there were 13 big banks, each having capital and reserves exceeding Rs. 5 lacs, and about 500 small banks operating in the country. As in all other countries, banking in India had its teething troubles. The banking crisis developed from time to time and resulted into failure of many banks. There was a serious banking crisis between 1913 and 1917 when 87 banks with a total capital of Rs. 175 lacs failed. Another crisis developed Between 1921 and 1924, the great depression of 1930s also affected the banks adversely. Between 1922 and 1936, no less than 373 banks collapsed. 372 more banks closed their doors between 1936 and 1940; the bank in southern India particularly had failed in a larger number during this period. The Second World War gave an opportunity of development and expansion of banking in India. Some of the most important banks established during the war period were the United Commercial Bank, The Hindustan Commercial Bank, The Hindustan Mercantile Bank, the Bank of Rajasthan, the Bank of 5

Maharashtra, the Indian Overseas Bank, and the Dena Bank. But the growth of banking was neither well planned nor properly controlled. Between 1939 and 1943, 482 banks with a total paid up capital of Rs. 94 lacs had failed. banks. An important feature of banking development during the war and post war period was that the association of industrialists with banks closer. Most of the industrial houses organized banks of there own and obtained control over already established banks. In a virtual scramble for funds, many banks undertook branch expansion quite out of proportion to their resources and without any careful assessment of the business prospects of the towns. Other conspicuous features of the mushroom banks were the inter-locking of shares between banks and other companies in which management was interested, large unsecured advances to persons connected with the management, and advances against speculative shares with inflated prices. These were usually small

The Reserve bank of India was given wide powers of supervision and control over banks under the banking companies act from March 1966. It gave suitable direction to the banking development. In 1960, after the failure of the Palai Central Bank, the Reserve bank intensified its efforts to strengthen the banking structure. During the period 1960-1967, over 200 banks were In July 1969, 14 major Indian scheduled amalgamated.

commercial banks were nationalized with the result that together with the state bank group, 80 percent of the banking business came under the direct control and ownership of the public sector. After the nationalization of six more banks on April 15, 1980, the 6

share of the public sector banks in total deposits and outstanding credits increased to 90.8 percent and 90.7 percent respectively. Commercial banking in India is now a strictly regulated sector in the Indian economy.

FINANCIAL SERVICES OF STANDARD CHARTERED BANK With a mission to catalyze the development of a micro financial services market for providing financial services to the poor, the SIG works towards the development of appropriate products and delivery mechanisms through research, pilot testing and dissemination efforts. Micro financial services include four classes of services: 1.) Basic banking services: Basic banking services that include savings and withdrawal facilities meet the demand for liquidity whether it is for enterprise purposes or for emergencies. The availability of savings products, the design of which takes into account the cash flows o f the poor, would be very crucial to the effective mobilization of savings. There is also a need to innovate for micro investment products that enable the poor to maximize returns on their surplus. 2.) Insurance including life, disability, health, and assets: The vulnerability of the poor points to insurance being a crucial product. Existing ways of informal insurance among the poor are: Drawing down on savings, reciprocal need- based gift exchange, selling physical assets and diversifying income sources, however, there is only a limited role that these informal mechanisms can play. There is a need for a mechanism to pool, price and trade the risks of the poor and the means to do this would be an insurance product that is able to bring under its fold the poor with varying risk profiles. 3.) Financial including credit, equity and leasing: This class of products has great relevance to the promotion of micro-enterprises. Even when these services do not benefit the poorest of the poor directly, they may provide benefits to them through the promotion of economic activity and employment. Equity is an important means of sharing the risk of enterprising poor to engage in ventures with the possibility of high returns.

Derivatives:

Derivatives are instruments the valve of which is

derived from the value of an underlying asset. Derivatives enable a buyer and a seller to enter into a contract in the present period to buy/sell at a future date at a pre-determined rate. The principles of a derivative contract appear to have relevance in the context of commodity markets and indices based on weather and other variables that have a bearing on the livelihoods of the poor.

MISSION STATEMENT OF STANDARD CHARTERED BANK To identify and support initiatives, which are, designed to improve the capacity of the poorest of the poor to participate in the larger economy. These initiatives must be cost effective, capable of large scale replication and should have the potential for both near and long term impact. To leverage technology in order to overcome constraints and enhance the effectiveness of various social initiatives,

FOCUS AREAS The SIG has three focus areas: Health: healthy) This focus seems to have the potential for maximum long and short-term impact and appears achievable in the most cost-effective and therefore saleable manner. The Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) measured as the number of deaths per 1000 live births within the indicator for gauging progress. The target of the SIG is to work to ensure a steady and significant decline in this rate at a national level, while seeking to reach a goal of 30 per thousand by 2011. Education: Elementary Education (Maximizing the number of 14-year-olds, who have a basic level of education) Education (and not just literacy) up to the elementary level seems to be almost a necessary condition for any individual (rich or poor) to be able to participate in any manner in the larger economy. Here the goal is to work towards the universalisation of elementary education all across India, rural and urban, with a substantial difference being made by 2011. The goal focuses on retention in school and learning achieved. Money: Micro Financial Services (Maximizing access to basic financial services. These services would include basic banking (savings and cash management), finance (debt and equity), insurance (life and health) and derivatives. The goal here is to facilitate universal access to these four services by the year 2011. Infant Health at Birth Elementary Education Micro Financial Services Infant Health at Birth (Maximizing the proportion of infants born

STANDARD CHARTERED BANK AND THE SOCIAL SECTOR The changed economic climate in India, with a growing emphasis on the market, has hastened the need for an informed and participatory socio-economic order. As one of the largest players in the economic landscape of the country, Standard Chartered Bank believes that its involvement in the commercial sector must be backed by a simultaneous commitment in the social sector. This is particularly so if any of the larger goals of economic liberalization in India, and of its players, is to be brought to fruition. Standard Chartered Bank seeks to perform its role in the social sector through a dedicated not-for-profit group, the Social Initiatives Group (SIG).

21

RELATED INTERESTS In addition to its core areas of focus, the SIG, in a limited manner, supports some other initiatives: --1. Non-governmental Organizations (NGO) Capacity Building This is supported through the GIVE (Giving Impetus to Voluntary -Effort) Foundation and the web site www.SCBcommunities.org The web site seeks to provide a variety of services to NGOs listed on the site including facilitating the receipt of donations online (Give online), sale of NGO products (Shop Online), volunteering of time and skills (Volunteer online) and news (News Online). 2. Modernization of the Indian Financial System This involves encouraging appropriate research and institution building efforts on a national basis. The web site, www.standardardcharteredresearchcentre.org, is a virtual nonprofit research centre that acts as a platform to address and encourage debate, and develop a nonpartisan opinion on various issues of concern and interest in financial economics relating to emerging market. Standard Chartered Bank supported the development of various financial institutions such as the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange. It has also supported the Institute for Financial Management and Research, Chennai.

22

STRATEGY At a very basic level, the programmes and projects supported by the SIG are required to cater to the poorest. They should enable them to become active and informed participants in socio-economic processes as opposed to passive observers. These initiatives much be output oriented, with a focus on producing measurable outcomes the meet a minimum quality requirement. The initiatives also need to be cost-effective. This is in recognition of the fact that resources are limited and their efficient use is imperative if the maximum number is to benefit Cost-effectiveness also facilitates the adoption of the initiative in other contexts. The initiative must be scalable. Scalability implies the ability to draw upon important elements of a programme and adapt them to suit the needs of a specific situation. It should be possible to do so at a national level. Even if the programme itself is not directly saleable, it should be possible to take away significant lessons from it in order to enrich work in other settings. All supported initiatives should have the potential for both near and long-term impact. Consequentially, it is important that the impact of these programmes, in the near and long term, be carefully understood and analyzed in a rigorous manner and not through anecdotes. It is critical to clearly understand how an initiative is performing in terms of its predetermined goals and in comparison to alternatives. There is little doubt that a complex of factors, very often beyond the control of the programme organization, will influence the outcome. Yet, serious and regular impact analysis can only make the programme richer and is essential. The SIG assigns greater valve to programmes/organizations that carefully examine the short-term and long-term implications of their, action. In pursuit of its goals in the three focus areas, the SIG tends to support reasonably large-sized initiatives so that issues such as cost-effective-ness, scalability and impact assessment can be dealt with more directly. These initiatives not only have the potential to provide key research inputs to other programmes, but also tend to have a large impact that benefits the communities they work with. The approach of the SIG may thus be characterized more broadly as action research, to distinguish

23

it form pure academic research. However, in its research work and impact assessment, the SIG seeks to adhere to the highest standards of academic rigor. It often works in partnership with academic institutions such as Institute of Rural Management Anand, KEM, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, University of California, Berkeley and the University of Southampton. It is crucial that the programmes supported by SIG be time-bound. This lends clarity to the aim of the programme and prevents its intent from getting diluted over time. The SIG works by identifying gaps in knowledge and practice in its focus areas and locating initiatives that address these gaps in a manner consistent with the SIGs mission. The identification of research needs is followed by an indepth analysis of the short-term and long-term implications of various forms of action. Among other things, this requires taking a comprehensive overview of work already done in the country and outside. The SIG, thus, seeks to answer through the projects it supports and, thereby, contribute to findings that help the sector. It should be pointed out that the SIG does not function as a rollout agency. An important feature of the SIGs strategy is the belief in strengthening or supplementary existing systems, rather than investing in parallel structures. Another key element of its strategy is the building of long-term relationships with suitable partners. As part of this effort, the SIG works actively to improve the efficacy of these partners and ensure sustained impact. In pursuit of its goals, the SIG seeks to work actively with research agencies, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), Corporates, Government departments, local stakeholders and international organisations. It should also be noted that the group believes modern technologies, particularly Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can prove to be important facilitators if used appropriately. The SIG also seeks to disseminate its findings and that of others in the field to a broad spectrum of participants using a variety of media, such as print and the Internet. It also encourages its team members to develop independent points of view in their own focus areas, and supports the publication of this work. The most recently published papers by the team members are listed below.

24

TECHNOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTION STANDARD CHARTERED BANK believes that technological

advancements play a central role in Indias economic and industrial development.

The industry analysts of the department monitor all major sectors and evolve a sectoral outlook, which is an important input to the portfolio planning process.

The functions of this department include: Review of Credit Origination & Monitoring Credit rating of companies/structures Default risk & loan pricing Review of industry sectors Review of large exposures in industries/corporate groups/companies Ensure Monitoring and follow-up by building appropriate systems such as CAS Design appropriate credit processes, operating policies & procedures Portfolio monitoring Methodology to measure portfolio risk Credit Risk Information System (CRIS) Focused attention to structured financing deals Pricing, New Product Approval Policy, Monitoring Monitor adherence to credit policies of RBI

During the year, the department has been instrumental in reorienting the credit processes, including delegation of powers and creation of suitable control points in the credit delivery process with the objective of improving customer response time and enhancing the effectiveness of the asset creation and monitoring activities. Availability of information on a real time basis is an important requisite for sound risk management. To aid its interaction with the strategic business units, and provide real time information on credit disk, the CRC&AD has implemented a sophisticated information system, namely the Credit Risk Information System.

RESEARCH METHODOLOY & LIMITATIONS

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY AND LIMITATIONS RESEARCH DESIGN:-The purpose of the methodology is to design the research procedure. This includes the overall design, the sampling procedure, the data collection method and analysis procedure. 53

Marking research is the systematic gathering recoding and analyzing of data about problem retaining to the marketing of goods and services. The essential purpose of marketing research is to provide information, at the best which will facilitate decisions the when identification such of an are opportunity of problem situation and to assist manager in arriving possible situations encountered. Basically there are two types of researches, which according to their applicability, strength, weaknesses, and requirements used before selecting proper type of research, their suitability must be seen with respect to a specific problem two general types of researches are exploratory and conclusive. 1. Exploratory Research Design: --It is also known as qualitative research, it seeks to discover new relationships it aims a defining the main problem & inducing the identification of the relevant variables and the possible alternative solutions it can further be divided in to three parts. 2. Conclusive Research: ---

It is also known as quantitative research; it is designed to help executives of action that is to make decision. When a marketing executive makes a decision are course of action is being selected from among a number of available. The alternatives may be as few as two or virtually infinite. They may be well defined or only vaguely glimpsed. Conclusive executives research make a provides rational information, decision. In which some helps the instances,

particularly if any experiment is run, the research may come close to specifying the precise alternatives to choose, in their cases especially with descriptive studies the research will only

54

particularly clarify the situation and much will be left to the executives judgment. 3. Data collection Method: ---

The most important and necessary thing is collection accurate data to achieve useful results. Questioning and observations are the two basic methods of collecting data in marketing research. Questioning as the name suggest is distinguished by the fact that data are collected by asking questions to people who are thought to have the desired information. It may be asked in person or in writing. Under observations researchers ask no objects or actions in which they are interested may be manually or mechanically. 4. (a) Advantages of Questioning Method Versatility: ---

Every marketing problem involves people therefore ideas relating to the problem and its solution can be obtained by asking these people about the problem. Knowledge, opinions, motivation and intentions are usually not open to observations, except where records have been maintained. (b) Speed and cost: ---

Questioning is cheaper and factor then observing interviewers have more controls over their data gathering activities observers very less time is wasted questioning. 5. (a) (b) Disadvantages of Communication under

Questionnaire Studies: --Unwillingness of respondents to provide information. Inability of respondents to provide information. 55

(c)

Influence of questioning process.

6.

Method

of

Communication

under

Questionnaire

Studies: --There different methods of communications are available: --(a) Personal Interviews: --Under this the interview obtains information from respondents in face-to-face meeting.

(b)

Telephone: ---

It is similar to that of personal interviews, but the communication between interviewer and respondents is via telephone instead of face-to-face meeting or direct personal content. (c) E-mail:--who also return them by e-mail sometimes. Under this method the questionnaires are e-mailed to the respondents Unstructured questions and difficult the customers are not very well aware, are more effectively handles by personal interviews. (7) Personal Interviews: --Unstructured well questions and long and difficult

It is most versatile and flexible of the three communication methods. not very questionnaires or the questions about which the customers are aware, are effectively handled by personal interviews.

56

During the interview itself the presence of interviewer permits flexibility in procedure. The questioning can be adapted to saturation further explanations or clarification can be given to the respondent for sorting another greatest advantage of using personal interviewers in that projects can be stopped or altered at any point during the study, which is not possible with mail study. 8. most INFORMATION OBTAINED: ---commercial research organization operate on the

Both quality and quantity of information obtained are important assumption that questions can be handled best, by personal interviews, next best by mail, least by telephone. 9. Influence of interviews: ----

The presence of the interviewers undoubtedly has some effect on accuracy of the data obtained. The effect may be good or bad or both the interaction between interviewer and respondent may bias the respondents replies and the personal interests and attitudes of the interviewer will cause them to interest and attitudes of the interviewer will cause them to interpretative the responses differently.

10. The

Control of sample: --largest difference among the three methods of

communication is in the about control they permit over the sample from which information are collected. A method is weak if it doesnt permit objective designation of there individuals from whom data are obtained. Every type of customers is to be located and interviewed with. Though the process is time consuming but it gives a better control. 57

11. (a)

Response Rate: --Primary Data: ---

It consists of originally collected information for the specific purpose in hand through questionnaire and personal interviews. The primary sources of information are executive, officer, personnel, staff working in departments, and least information has been collected from them under this study paper. (b) Secondary Data: --Secondary Data can be defined as data collected from somewhere else for the purpose of investigation. Such data are obtained from past records, documents, diagrams, files, letters etc.

12. (a)

Methodology Adopted: --Primary Sources: ---

Primary data consists of originally collected information for the specific purpose at hand. The primary source for the study was personal interviews with consumers through questionnaires.

(b) (i) (ii) (iii) 13.

Secondary Sources: --Books in Marketing. In house Journals. Bulletins and periodicals of STANDARD CHARTERED BANK. LIMITATIONS: --Respondents lack of time to give information and their

Support of Secondary data has been taken for the purpose from:-

casual attitude was a big hindrance in the study. 58

Small sample size does not truly depict the population size. Locating the selected address of the customers was a big problem as they were widely spread. Cost and time constraints were there, putting limitations on the results. Some sample members become non- respondents because they (1) refuse to respond (2) are inaccessible. There was an element of casualness on the part of some respondents. The person interviewed was not necessarily the person who had made the reply, which might have affected the final results.

59

QUESTIONNAIRE DESIGN

QUESTIONNAIRE DESIGN Questionnaire development is an important part of the market survey job. It is an art that calls for a lot of experiences and resourcefulness and the part of research. The questionnaire should be structured so as to collect all relevant information. It 60

often sits the framework as well as tone of the survey. The research data is build upon the framework of questionnaire the choice of work should also be appropriate and should be understood by all respondents. The questionnaire should be as simple as the subjects of the survey permits. It should be brief and to the point for many a logical sequence.

SUGGESTIONS

SUGGESTIONS

Standard Chartered Bank has to change their policy and to plan their strategy to check its services in order to increase the level of satisfaction of customers. Various presentations should be made in various clubs and societies in NCR so as to make people aware about the personal loans of STANDARD CHARTERED BANK. The Bank should come up with more aggressive customized banking and relationship based banking. The Bank should go for more local advertising, telling about its various flexible schemes. Mode can be hoarding, newspaper, and personal contacts. Regular visit of service persons to the customers should be made. Since most of the population belongs to the middle class families, so they are not able to afford the high interest rate of personal loans of STANDARD CHARTERED BANK. So there should be some decrease in the interest rate. The EMI should be decreased. Properly identified staff should be deputed for marketing. They should be well disciplined, punctual, alert and of enquiry mind. Bank should organize image building activities to get identification as a different bank in society. Premises matters assumed very important role in attracting the public and effort should be made to change the present premises to be a bigger one so that it presents a good look so as to have a pleasant and inviting banking atmosphere.

Standard Chartered bank Banking on customer relations Standard Chartered is the world's leading emerging markets bank headquartered in London. It offers both consumer and wholesale banking services. The bank employs 30,000 people in over 500 locations in more than 50 countries including the Asia Pacific Region, South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, the United Kingdom and the Americas. The world-wide IT infrastructure features 5,000 servers and 35,000 desktops. IT supports 600 different applications. The Standard Chartered Group was formed in 1969 through a merger of two banks: The Standard Bank of British South Africa founded in 1863, and the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China, founded in 1853. Both companies were keen to capitalize on the huge expansion of trade and to earn the handsome profits to be made from financing the movement of goods from Europe to the East and to Africa. Bank has ambitious plans to transform its business in the country and to further expand operations across the country. The bank bears the tagline HERE FOR GOOD. Chartered Bank opened its first overseas branch in India, at Kolkata, on 12 April 1858. During that time Kolkata was the most important commercial city and was the hub of jute and indigo trades. With the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 and the growth of cotton trade, Bombay replaced Kolkata as the main commercial center. Hence Standard Chartered shifted its main operations to Bombay. Today the Bank's branches and sub-branches in India are directed and administered from Bombay with Kolkata remaining an important trading and banking centre. The merger with the Standard Bank of British South Africa in 1969 and the acquisition of Grindlays Bank in 2000 were two key events that have played an important role in making the Bank the largest international bank in India.

To cater to diverse financial. CRM Solutions: Standard Chartered bank was looking for a tool that would help it analyze the huge volumes of data capture by its OLTP systems. The objective was to analyze new business opportunities, provide better customer service, and boost profitability. Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) previously used Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) system, which facilitated and managed transactionoriented applications. "The system was reliable but provided little scope for in-depth customer analysis, which is the key to survive in the fiercely competitive financial marketplace. It answered the financial queries and generated reports at a broad portfolio level, which included total earnings, debt situation, interest income, cost, fee income, and profits. The bank realized that it needed to go a step further and deploy a solution which it can use to analyze the huge volumes of data captured by its OLTP systems. The idea was to search for crucial nuggets of information from the vast amounts of transactional data at its disposal to get the right information, to the right executive and at the right time. This information can help a bank take critical business decisions in the dog-eat-dog financial world. The bank's IT team looked at the business requirement in detail and deduced that the organization needed a data warehousing and analytical solution that would help analyze customer data to enable factbased decision making in areas ranging from acquisition and risk management to cross-selling and portfolio management. After evaluating a number of vendor offerings, SCB decided to use a suite of products from SAS. It went for the SAS Customizable CRM Solutions. Varied services A better way to understand the bank's need would be to understand its customer base and the varied services it provides. SCB has over 2.2 million retail customers and over 1.3 million credit card customers nationwide. It claims to be the first to launch initiatives like a Global Credit Card and a Photo card in India. Its products and 92

services include cash management, custody, lending, foreign exchange, interest rate management, and debt capital markets for corporate. And credit cards, personal loans, mortgages, deposit taking activity, wealth management services to individuals and medium-sized businesses, and mutual funds to retail customers. "The customer base has grown three-fold in the last three years. Such a fervent pace needed to be supported by efficient management of the huge volumes of data generated and captured at each touch-point. After all it is absolutely essential to keep up the bank's unchallenged reputation of efficiency. Defining benefits The bank's vision was to champion fact-based strategic business decisions using best-in-class analytics. The objective was to enhance the organization's competitive advantage and boost profits. The bank was looking forward to the following broad benefits:

The ability to exploit changing and widening markets. The ability to implement a customer-centric approach focused on optimizing the lifetime value of the customer. The ability to concentrate on financial budgeting, cost control, and risk management. To look for new ways to minimize costs, while increasing profitability and shareholder value by effectively managing consumer relationships.

Solution needs It was clear that in order to achieve the desired benefits, the bank had to implement a data warehouse and analytical solution. "A solution that can perform analytics on the valuable customer data to answer queries across divisions. The answers would then enable us to proactively service customers and thereby ensure customer loyalty and retention. This exercise is a must for survival in a fiercely competitive environment." "Any bank today cannot ignore the risk: reward equation. Calculating it is a complex and challenging task that all bankers have to accomplish. It's the process of applying a variety of scoring techniques across product lines to arrive at the probable risk associated with each product sale and the possible rewards. Examples of products are credit cards, auto loans, and personal loans. The solution to leverage information on customer profiles and segments enable to spread the risks based on empirical data analysis."

93

"The solution should also be scalable. This was crucial as the solutions would be very critical to the business, and the volumes of data kept increasing exponentially." Evaluation The bank created a team of 25 people and called it a Business Intelligence Unit. This unit was responsible for deriving and implementing strategies to analyze and exploit customer data. "The company evaluated a number of solutions from Brio, Cognos, Business Objects, and SAS. SAS was chosen as the preferred solution partner and SCB today relies on SAS solutions across Asia for its customer analytics. The SAS solutions reside on an IBM RS/6000 server running the AIX operating system. The SAS software accesses and integrates data from multiple sources and disparate systems across the enterprise. This data is then used for a variety of analyses by the Business Intelligence Unit and is disseminated to all information consumers across the bank. The information consumers include sales managers, finance resources, credit resources, product heads and managers, and the head of consumer banking via the SCB Intranet. "As a result, analytics provide a key competitive edge and are used seamlessly for empowering business manager in their goals, Analytics' benefit The solution has helped the bank effectively manage and optimize profitability of all the products that constitute its retail portfolio. "SAS's solutions forms a central part of the bank's CRM strategy. It is easier to run targeted campaigns and elicit substantially higher returns since the bank perform profit modeling for each account. This also enables micro-segmentation. Using analytics, and a test and learn culture it is known the likelihood of customers to take a new product. It is now know which card member is more likely to take an auto loan. This has resulted in more focused marketing campaigns and reduced costs with improved customer satisfaction." The organization's marketing team is now empowered with information to increase cross holding, and can target its most valuable customers (not accounts within a product line) and also help in the next best product strategy for a customer. New products With the help of the Business Intelligence (BI) solutions, SCB was able to successfully launch DIVA. DIVA is a specially designed women's 94

international credit card targeted at the Indian woman and bundled with several features. It includes discounts and zero interest rates on categories like jewellery, cosmetics, apparel, consumer durables, leather products, and mobile phones. "This was possible due to an in-depth analysis of our customer data provided by the BI solutions. It has been realized that a significant proportion of the business came from the upwardly mobile Indian woman and was likely to grow substantially from this section in the coming months. This gave an impetus to launch a product which catered to the needs of this segment and consolidate the banks position in the mind of the customer, The bank also launched the aXcess plus savings account. Customers who have this account can access cash at over 1800 ATMs worldwide through the Visa network. Besides, they can use this account to shop for goods and services at over 25,000 outlets in India and at 10 million outlets worldwide. "This strategy was validated and facilitated by the information provided to us by the BI unit. It is realized that by using this technique the bank could provide more value to its savings account customers and help increase customer loyalty,. Other benefits "Bank can successfully calculate the risk: reward equation, SCB uses SAS for scoring virtually all its products in the asset portfolio ranging from its 1.3 million credit card holders to its loan portfolio in excess of $ 860 million. "Information on customer profiles and segments forms the backbone of product strategy for us. It allows tailoring products across a diversified consumer base, enabling us to spread the risk across a much wider spectrum, SAS solutions are also used to carry out simulations that help the bank assess its overall profitability and balance its exposures across portfolios. The bank can carry out stress tests on its portfolios and learn about the best case and worst case scenarios. The working of the SAS library of advanced statistical techniques helps in achieving the results and arriving at an optimized risk-adjusted capital. "The solution can scale to handle different sizes of data and takes much less time to analyze SAS data sets than it takes to analyze a standard relational database,. Future plans In future SCB plans to embark on SAS' data mining technologies for various predictive modeling and advanced scoring initiatives to strengthen its risk management framework in the area of retail 95

lending."Since the customers are now known well enough so it is easy to provide effective customer service and maximize shareholder value, the bank will keep using information strategically so that it contributes in providing a cutting edge to the organization,".
