CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




The Indian Banking Scenario has undergone metamorphic transformation during the last few years . Thanks to nationalisation of 14 major banks in 1969 and 6 more banks in 1980 , an extensive banking network spread over around 76000 branches has been established. The network is one of the largest in the world today.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :






Perhaps the most significant point is that India‟s banking system has been closely associated with India‟s development strategy and development efforts . The diversification and development of our national economy and acceleration of the growth process are in no small measure due to the active role that the banks have played in financing economic activities in various sectors. Banks have, indeed, acted as not only a catalyst but as engine of / for economic development.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




The Banking System now faces many a daunting challenges . One way of course could be to continue to do what banks are doing now, and try to do it a little better.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




The other route could be to set for ourselves an altogether different and ambitious goal which can translate our country‟s vast potential into actual reality so that India will not be considered as “A Rich Country of Poor People,” but rather “A Rich Country of Rich People”

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




One may , of course , like to ask certain questions like : Is it realistic for India to set for itself the goal of becoming a major international banking and finance centre / player in the early part of the current century ?

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :







Let us not forget that India has made progress in several areas like : Development of competitive financial sector with multiple intermediaries The movement towards best international practices in regard to Capital Adequacy , Prudential Norms and Supervisory Standards Strengthening the Transparency and Disclosure Practices by banks and other financial institutions

Let us not also forget that India has made progress in several areas like : Better application of Asset and Risk Management by financial intermediaries Reducing the extent of NPAs Instituting speedier mechanism for settling of bank dues (Debt Recovery Tribunals)

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




The Indian Banking Sector is dominated by „Public Sector‟ units A sensitive and controversial question to be addressed , sooner or later, is whether the “public sector” character of these institutions is consistent with their being able to play a globally competitive role in the years to come.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :




The Bankers must realise that , in the years to come , it is going to be the survival of the fittest. The Bankers must therefore realise that they have to move from Activity or Occupation to a Profession.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :


They must therefore endeavour to be PRO-ACTIVE --- being ready for tomorrow, today; and be able to adopt and adapt to the dynamic and constantly changing local and global business environments.

The Weekly stated that like the SouthEastern Economies – referred to as the Asian Tigers - India has all the , in fact much more , resources. However , due to excessive Government Controls and Regulations, Indian Economy was not able to deliver as “ The Indian Economy was like a Tiger in Cage”.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :

  

Post-1991 , the same Economist , during 1993-1994, brought out another special supplement on the Indian Economy.

CHALLENGES BEFORE INDIAN BANKS IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM :


It stated that with the Policy of Liberalisation, Privastisation and Globalisation, and the resultant abolition of Controls and Regulations , the Government of India had done its bit. The Weekly then went on to add :
