Introduction :
The Indian banking system is dominated by public sector banks and controls nearly 80 percent of the market, thereby leaving comparatively much smaller shares for the private banks. Improved performance of the banking industry in India has helped the economy to bounce back to a positive growth level. As per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), India’s banking industry is adequately capitalised and well-regulated.
Indian banking industry has recently witnessed the roll out of innovative banking models like payments and small finance banks. RBI’s new policy and measures may go a long way in helping the restructuring of the domestic banking industry. Both the Public-sector banks and private banks are also encouraging their customers to manage their finances using digital channels and mobile devices.
The banking industry is going through a transition to become digital enterprises. Delivering a consistent customer experience is becoming tough. Financial institutions which can’t coordinate and personalize customer interactions across all channels risk losing out to other banks.
