HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
•
•
•
•
•
Banks nationalised in 1969
By early 1990s accounted for 90% of
country’s banking business
By 1992 had over 60,000 branch offices
Highly regulated and protected
environment
Failed to measure up to international
benchmarks of strength and efficiency

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
•
•
•
•
•
Financial sector reforms initiated in 1991
Public Sector Banks (‘PSBs’) post losses
for the first time as a group in the first year
of reforms
State Bank of India (‘SBI’) and its 7
subsidiaries continued to post profits
By 1995-’96 several other PSBs also
improved their profitability
Wide variations in competitive efficiency of
PSBs persists even today

Local Board for each Circle
Independent directors from different walks
of life – industrialists, academicians,

body in the bank

•

Systematic evaluation of the impact of training
AREAS OF CONCERN
•
•
•
•
•
Government ownership acts as a
constraint in raising fresh capital
Perception as one of the brightest “family
silvers” often results in political intervention
delaying decisions relating to critical
strategic and policy changes
Absence of market related compensation
structure for employees
Inability to offer performance based
compensation and rewards
Inability to attract and retain best-in-class
talent
19
CONCLUSION
•
Notwithstanding its public sector nature SBI has shown
consistently strong performance, demonstrating:
Being in the public sector in itself need not really be a
handicap to success
It is not only possible but essential to retain a commercial
culture and competitive efficiency while attending to
social and developmental objectives
Quality of governance is independent of ownership
Ownership, and management roles and concerns can be
kept separate and as long as they are kept so,
performance is better
Long term strategy and a clear vision about market
positioning is essential
Ability to provide leadership from within is important
20
Development of human resource is critical
