Bankers deal with other people's money. They receive deposits and advance money. Basically the entire banking function is based on certain principles and ethics, which every banker has to follow. If the bankers are not ethical, then there will be disaster and collapse of the entire financial system. In view of the growing use of technology. IT age gave rise to the high technology revolution. Today's IT not only impacts the processing of transaction data but also effects the personnel performing the task and also the business process. For commercial and service industry like banks, information processing has become a matter of strategic importance due to customer expectation and level of competition. Though, IT is not a panacea for the entire organizational ills, can undoubtedly enhance internal efficiency and competitive edge. The evolution phases of IT in commercial organizations can be viewed as under: • Data Processing Phase • Managing Information System Phase, and • Electronic Banking Phase. In India nationalized banks provide a major chunk of the banking services with State Bank of India and its subsidiaries forming the heart of the banking system. The banking sector can be divided in to three categories: • Public sector banks- nationalized banks • Private sector banks- Non nationalized due to their smaller size • Foreign banks eg. Standard Chartered bank, Citi Bank, American Express bank, etc. All banks will have to adapt to new emerging technology in order to export the new business opportunities it offers. It will be a new challenge and will require investment in technology and new systems. Some value added services also need to be provided which will call for innovation and standardization. The banking industry has not only kept pace with technological developments but also forced the computer industry to continuously keep pace and innovate products to suit its needs. In fact, in developed countries, mechanized banking was introduced in 1960, computer based banking in 1970 and computer linked communication banking in 1980. Many of the foreign banks have global networks connecting their branches in various countries. All these innovations have been responsible for reducing currency in circulation by substituting paper money with plastic money. Similarly, these innovations have converted paper cheques into electronic, telex advice into electronic, signature album into magnetic spot on desk, telegraphic transfer in electronic and so on. The customer profile is now changing. Metro and urban customers want speed and efficiency. The high value customers need anywhere and anytime banking, 365 days in a year and 24 hours in a day and banking of convenience. Fast decision making at the bank level, for which latest information system is essential as the customer respond quietly in global market is the need of the hour. Therefore, computers and communications are now mainly used to meet the demand for the end users for facilities (self service, enquiry, convenience and flexibility, quicker and hassle free banking). To nationalize retail banking, minimize operational costs of banks and to meet challenges from competitors, banks have used the following: It is an extended service of the bank branch, which enhances customer services open for 24 hours. It does the work of dispensing cash, accepting deposits of cash and cheques throughout the day. ATM is interconnected so that a customer can go to any of the ATM s and transact business thus providing the customers convenience of “Anywhere Banking”. This can be used from any country in the world provided one has access to the internet and the equipment or software. However, operations in the accounts with the banks and services (account information, funds transfer, bill payment, request and intimations and communication with account manager) are subject to the relevant laws of India and not any other country. To avoid walking to reach the location of ATM, the customer is provided with the terminal in his home or office itself (home/office banking). A personal computer is provided to the customer for banking business. It is only a decision support system in personal computer to make better investment decisions. The Tele-banking can also be used for transfer of money between accounts. Further, these services are charged free of cost to the customer. M-commerce brings wired E-commerce to the user via a wireless handset. Doing financial transactions through electronic medium is such one instance. E-Shopping through mobile handsets does have a lot of issues in banking services today. This technology is the outcome of the felt need to improve living conditions. This felt need of banking system to diversify in to new areas of business, as a strategy for survival, forced the banking system to develop new products like remittance business, traveler's cheques and so on. The currency as a medium of exchange itself posed a number of security problems coupled with these and the demands of trade for a reliable payment system led to the innovation of the credit cards, stores value cards loaded with monetary value to purchase goods and services). The smart card technology is used in mobile handset facilitating mobile commerce. In the light of the above, this proposed National Conference on “INDIAN BANKING : MANAGING TRANSFORMATION IN THE ERA OF GLOBALISATION AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY” examines to understand the people's perception, knowledge, beliefs and preferences in the banking services after technology introduction in India banking industry.
