Liabilities of a Commercial Bank
• Capital & Reserves
• Subordinated Bonds
• Bonds Issued
• Deposits
• Borrowing from other Banks (Inter-Bank)
• Borrowing from RBI (Central Bank)
• Others (CBLO)
Checking Accounts• Since Checking Accounts are zero cost
funds, can we offer only these accounts?
• Our cost of funds would be near zero.
• Should we recover the cost of operations of checking accounts?
• How should we use these funds?
lend short term?
Can we lend these long term?
Savings Bank Accounts• Is it a low-cost deposit?
• Why are there restrictions on number of withdrawals ?
• Can we is place a restriction that withdrawals cannot be more than 10% of the balance? Will it help?
• Should we discourage persons who keep low balances in their account?
• Do we expect large balances in Savings Bank Accounts?
Dilemma:
• Banks can encourage customers who have large balances to deposit them in Term-Deposits or invest in higher yielding schemes such as mutual funds etc of group companies. But, if this is done, the banks lose out on low cost deposits.
Marketing Savings Deposit
• Would a savings account which does not have checking facility but allows a restricted number of withdrawals be popular?
• What would make it popular?
• Will our bank benefit from such an offering at all as there will be migration from savings bank account to this savings account?
Term or Fixed Deposits
• Why do we offer this product even though these are high cost funds?
• How to decide how many maturity slabs a bank should offer?
• What rates to offer? What are the factors on which this depends?
• Is the rate higher for longer maturities?
• Why do banks allow “pre-mature withdrawal”? What are the problems?
Corporate Short Term Deposits and Certificates of Deposits
• When should banks target such deposits?
• Corporates generally negotiate for higher rates of interest? Is this ok?
• What are the drawbacks of ST Deposits?
• Do CD’s have these drawbacks?
