INTRODUCTION OF E-BANKING
The world is changing at a staggering rate and technology is considered to be the
key driver for these changes around us. An analysis of technology and its uses show
that it has permeated in almost every aspect of our life. Many activities are handled
electronically due to the acceptance of information technology at home as well as at
workplace. Slowly but steadily, the Indian customer is moving towards the internet
banking. The ATM and the Net transactions are becoming popular. But the customer
is clear on one thing that he wants net-banking to be simple and the banking sector
is matching its steps to the march of technology. E-banking or Online banking is a
generic term for the delivery of banking services and products through the
electronic channels such as the telephone, the internet, the cell phone etc. The
concept and scope of e-banking is still evolving. It facilitates an effective payment
and accounting system thereby enhancing the speed of delivery of banking services
considerably. Several initiatives have been taken by the Government of India as well
as the RBI (Reserve Bank of India); have facilitated the development of e-banking in
India. The government of India enacted the IT Act, 2000, which provides legal
recognition to electronic transactions and other means of electronic commerce. The
RBI has been preparing to upgrade itself as regulator and supervisor of the
technologically dominated financial system. It issued guidelines on the risks and
controls in computer and telecommunication systems to all banks, advising them to
evaluate the risks inherent in the systems and put in place adequate control
mechanisms to address these risks.

1.1 WHAT IS E-BANKING?


Electronic banking is one of the truly widespread avatars of E-commerce the world
over. Various authors define E-Banking differently but the most definition depicting
the meaning and features of E-Banking are as follows:

1. Banking is a combination of two, Electronic technology and Banking.

2. Electronic Banking is a process by which a customer performs banking


Transactions electronically without visiting a brick-and-mortar institutions.

3. E-Banking denotes the provision of banking and related service through Extensive
use of information technology without direct recourse to the bank by the customer.

NEED FOR E-BANKING

One has to approach the branch in person, to withdraw cash or deposit a cheque or
request a statement of accounts. In true Internet banking, any inquiry or transaction
is processed online without any reference to the branch (anywhere banking) at any
time. Providing Internet banking is increasingly becoming a "need to have" than a
"nice to have" service. The net banking, thus, now is more of a norm rather than an
exception in many developed countries due to the fact that it is the cheapest way of
providing banking services. Banks have traditionally been in the forefront of
harnessing technology to improve their products, services and efficiency. They
have, over a long time, been using electronic and telecommunication networks for
delivering a wide range of value added products and services. The delivery channels
include direct dial – up connections, private networks, public networks etc and the
devices include telephone, Personal Computers including the Automated Teller
Machines, etc. With the popularity of PCs, easy access to Internet and World Wide
Web (WWW), Internet is increasingly used by banks as a channel for receiving
instructions and delivering their products and services to their customers. This form
of banking is generally referred to as Internet Banking, although the range of
products and services offered by different banks vary widely both in their content
and sophistication.

HISTORY OF E- BANKING

The precursor for the modern home online banking services were the distance
banking services over electronic media from the early '80s. The term online became
popular in the late '80s and refers to the use of a terminal, keyboard and TV (or
monitor) to access the banking system using a phone line. ‘Home banking’ can also
refer to the use of a numeric keypad to send tones down a phone line with
instructions to the bank. Online services started in New York in 1981 when four of
the city’s major banks (Citibank, Chase Manhattan, Chemical and Manufacturers
Hanover) offered home banking services using the videotex system. Because of the
commercial failure of videotex these banking services never became popular except
in France where the use of videotex (Minitel) was subsidised by the telecom
provider and the UK, where the Prestel system was used. The UK’s first home online
banking services were set up by the Nottingham Building Society (NBS) in 1983
("History of the Nottingham" Retrieved on 2007-12-14.). The system used was
based on the UK's Prestel system and used a computer, such as the BBC Micro, or
keyboard (Tandata Td1400) connected to the telephone system and television set.
The system (known as 'Homelink') allowed on-line viewing of statements, bank
transfers and bill payments. In order to make bank transfers and bill payments, a
written instruction giving details of the intended recipient had to be sent to the NBS
who set the details up on the Homelink system. Typical recipients were gas,
electricity and telephone companies and accounts with other banks. Details of
payments to be made were input into the NBS system by the account holder via
Prestel. A cheque was then sent by NBS to the payee and an advice giving details of
5
the payment was sent to the account holder. BACS was later used to transfer the
payment directly. Stanford Federal Credit Union was the first financial institution to
offer online internet banking services to all of its members in Oct, 1994.

EVOLUTION OF E-BANKING

The story of technology in banking started with the use of punched card machines
like Accounting Machines or Ledger Posting Machines. The use of technology, at that
time, was limited to keeping books of the bank. It further developed with the birth of
online real time system and vast improvement in telecommunications during late
1970’s and 1980’s.it resulted in a revolution in the field of banking with
“convenience banking” as a buzzword. Through Convenience banking, the bank is
carried to the doorstep of the customer. The 1990’s saw the birth of distributed
computing technologies and Relational Data Base Management System. The
banking industry was simply waiting for these technologies. Now with distribution
technologies, one could configure dedicated machines called front-end machines for
customer service and risk control while communication in the batch mode without
hampering the response time on the frontend machine.

Intense competition has forced banks to rethink the way they operated their
business. They had to reinvent and improve their products and services to make
them more beneficial and cost effective. Technology in the form of E-banking has
made it possible to find alternate banking practices at lower costs.

More and more people are using electronic banking products and services because
large section of the banks future customer base will be made up of computer

6
literate customer, the banks must be able to offer these customer products and
services that allow them to do their banking by electronic means. If they fail to do
this will, simply, not survive. New products and services are emerging that are set
to change the way we look at money and the monetary system.

1.2 USAGE OF E-BANKING


The rise in the e-commerce and the use of internet in its facilitation along with the
enhanced online security of transactions and sensitive information has been the
core reason for the penetration of online banking in everyday life. According to the
latest official figures from the office of National Statistics ( ONS 2007) indicate that
subscriptions to the internet has grown more than 50% from 25 million in 2005 to
45 million in 2007 in India. It has also been estimated that 60% of the population in
India use internet in their daily lives. The fundamental shift towards the involvement
of the customer in the financial service provision with the help of the technology
especially internet has helped to reduce the costs of financial institutions as well as
helped client to use the service at anytime and from virtually anywhere with access
to an internet connection. The use of electronic banking has removed personnel that
facilitate the transactions and has placed additional responsibilities on the
customers to transact with the service. The computerization of the banking
operations has made maximum impact on:-

1) Internal Accounting System

2) Customer service

3) Diversification of system

INTERNET BANKING VERSUS TRADITIONAL BANKING

In spite of so many facilities that Internet banking offers us, we still seem to trust
our traditional method of banking and is reluctant to use online banking. But here
are few cases where Internet banking will turn out to be a better option in terms of
saving your money.

'Stop payment' done through Internet banking will not cost any extra fees but when
done through the branch, the bank may charge you Rs 50 per cheque plus the
service tax. Through Internet banking, you can check your transactions at any time
of the day, and as many times as you want to. On the other hand, in a traditional
method, you get quarterly statements from the bank and if you request for a
statement at your required time, it may turn out to be an expensive affair. The
branch may charge you Rs 25 per page, which includes only 30 transactions.
Moreover, the bank branch would take eight days to deliver it at your doorstep. If
7
the fund transfer has to be made outstation, where the bank does not have a
branch, the bank would demand outstation charges. Whereas with the help of online
banking, it will be absolutely free for you. As per the Internet and Mobile Association
of India's report on online banking 2006, "There are many advantages of online
banking. It is convenient it isn't bound by operational timings, there are no
geographical barriers and the services can be offered at a miniscule cost."

1.3 DIAGRAM OF E-BANKING SYSTEM

E-BANKING PRODUCTS

Automated Teller Machine (ATM): These are cash dispensing machine, which are
frequently seen at banks and other locations such as shopping centers and building
societies. Their main purpose is to allow customer to draw cash at any time and to
provide banking services where it would not have been viable to open another
branch e.g. on university campus. An automated teller machine or automatic

8
teller machine (ATM) is a computerized telecommunications device that provides
a financial institution's customers a method of financial\ transactions in a public
space without the need for a human clerk or bank teller. On most modern ATMs, the
customer identifies him or herself by inserting a plastic ATM card with a magnetic
stripe or a plastic smartcard with a chip that contains his or her card number and
some security information, such as an expiration date or CVC (CVV). Security is
provided by the customer entering a personal identification number (PIN).Using an
ATM, customers can access their bank accounts in order to make cash withdrawals
(or credit card cash advances) and check their account balances. Many ATMs also
allow people to deposit cash or checks, transfer money between their bank
accounts, pay bills, or purchase goods and services.Some of the advantages of ATM
to customers are:-

• Ability to draw cash after normal banking hours

• Quicker than normal cashier service

• Complete security as only the card holder knows the PIN

• Does not just operate as a medium of obtaining cash.

• Customer can sometimes use the services of other bank ATM’s.

Tele banking or Phone Banking: Telephone banking is relatively new Electronic


Banking Product. However it is fastly becoming one of the most popular products.
Customer can perform a number of transactions from the convenience of their own
home or office; in fact from anywhere they have access to phone. Customers can do
following:-

• Check balances and statement information

• Transfer funds from one account to another

• Pay certain bills

• Order statements or cheque books

• Demand draft request

This facility is available with the help of Voice Response System (VRS). This system
basically, accepts only TONE dialed input. Like the ATM customer has to follow
particular process, initially account number and telephone PIN are fed for the
process to start. Also the VRS system provides the users within additional facilities
such as changing existing password with the new desired, information about new
products, current interest rates etc. Mobile Banking: Mobile banking comes in as a
part of the banks initiative to offer multiple channels banking providing convenience
for its customer. A versatile multifunctional, free service that is accessible and
viewable on the monitor of mobile phone. Mobile phones are playing great role in
Indian banking- both directly and indirectly. They are being used both as banking

9
and other channels. Internet Banking: The advent of the Internet and the
popularity of personal computers presented both an opportunity and a challenge for
the banking industry. For years, financial institutions have used powerful computer
networks to automate million of daily transactions; today, often the only paper
record is the customer’s receipt at the point of sale. Now that their customers are
connected to the Internet via personal computers, banks envision similar
advantages by adopting those same internal electronic processes to home use.
Banks view online banking as a powerful “value added” tool to attract and retain
new customers while helping to eliminate costly paper handling and teller
interactions in an increasingly competitive banking environment. In India first one to
move into this area was ICICI Bank. They started web based banking as early as
august 1997.

1.4 TYPES OF INTERNET BANKING OR E-BANKING


Understanding the various types of Internet banking will help examiners assess the
risks involved. Currently, the following three basic kinds of Internet banking are
being employed in the marketplace.

Informational- this is the basic level of Internet banking. Typically, the bank has
marketing information about the bank’s products and services on a standalone
server. The risk is relatively low, as informational systems typically have no path
between the server and the bank’s internal network. This level of Internet banking
can be provided by the banks or outsourced. While the risk to a bank is relatively
low, the server or web site may be vulnerable to alteration. Appropriate controls
therefore must be in place to prevent unauthorized alterations to the bank’s server
or web site.

Communicative- this type of Internet banking systems and the customer. The
interaction between the bank’s system and the customer. The interaction may be
limited to electronic mail, account enquiry, loan applications, or static file updates
(name and address change). Because these servers may have a path to the bank’s
internal networks, the risk is higher with this configuration than with informational
systems. Appropriate controls need to be in the place to prevent, monitor, and alert
management of any unauthorized attempt to access the bank’s internal networks
and computer systems. Virus controls also become much more critical in this
environment.

10
Transactional- this level of Internet banking allows customers to execute
transactions. Since a path typically exists between the server and the bank or
outsourcer’s internal network, this is the highest risk architecture and must have
the strongest controls. Customer transactions can include accessing accounts,
paying bills, transferring funds etc.

FEATURES OF E-BANKING

Transactional: (e.g. performing a financial transaction such as an account to


account transfer, paying a bill or applications like applying for a loan, new account,
etc.)

• Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment (EBPP)

• Funds transfer between customers own checking and savings accounts, or to


another customers account.

• Investment purchase or sale.

• Loan application and transactions such as repayments.

Non-transactional: (e.g. online statements, Check links, Chat, Co-browsing etc.)

Financial Institution Administration- features allowing financial institutions to


manage the online experience of their end users. ASP/ Hosting Administration –
features allowing the hosting company to administer the solution across financial
institution.

1.5 ADVANTAGE & DISADVANTAGE OF E - BANKING


ADVANTAGES OF E-BANKING:-

• Convenience- Unlike your corner bank, online banking sites never close; they’re
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and they’re only a mouse click away.
With pressures on time and longer travelling periods, more and more people find it
tiresome waiting in queues. People want flexibility, and Internet banking offers just
that.

• Ubiquity- If you’re out of state or even out of the country when a money problem
arises, you can log on instantly to your online bank and take care of business, 24\7.

• Transaction speed- Online bank sites generally execute and confirm


transactions at or quicker than ATM processing speeds.

11
• Efficiency-You can access and manage all of your bank accounts, including IRA’s,
CDs, even securities, from one secure site.

• Effectiveness- Many online banking sites now offer sophisticated tools, including
account aggregation, stock quotes, rate alert and portfolio managing program to
help you manage all of your assets more effectively. Most are also compatible with
money managing programs such as quicken and Microsoft money.

• Cheaper alternative: - With increasing competition, it seems to be the cost


factor that is driving banks to offer the facility. The Internet is still a very cheap
alternative to opening a physical branch, and most of the push seems to be coming
from the supply side. The costs of a banking service through the Internet form a
fraction of costs through conventional methods.

• From snob value to necessity:- A couple of years ago, there was a belief even
among bankers that customers opening new accounts wanted the online banking
facility, just to "feel good" and very few of them actually used the services. Today,
bankers believe that the trend from `nice to have' is changing to `need to have'.
The "snob value" of banking with an organisation that could offer service on the
Internet has given way to a genuine necessity, he feels. "It all depends on how busy
a person is."

DISADVANTAGES OF INTERNET BANKING

• Start-up may take time-In order to register for your bank’s online program, you
will probably have to provide ID and sign a form at a bank branch. If you and your
spouse wish to view and manage their assets together online, one of you may have
to sign a durable power of attorney before the bank will display all of your holdings
together.

• Learning curves- Banking sites can be difficult to navigate at first. Plan to invest
some time and\or read the tutorials in order to become comfortable in your virtual
lobby.

• Bank site changes- Even the largest banks periodically upgrade their online
programs, adding new features in unfamiliar places. In some cases, you may have
to re-enter account information.

1.6 HOW E-BANKING CAN EASE YOUR LIFE


Indian banks are trying to make your life easier. Not just bill payment, you can make
investments, shop or buy tickets and plan a holiday at your fingertips. In fact,
sources from ICICI Bank tell us, "Our Internet banking base has been growing at
12
an exponential pace over the last few years. Currently around 78 per cent of the
bank's customer base is registered for Internet banking." To get started, all you
need is a computer with a modem or other dial-up device, a checking account with a
bank that offers online service and the patience to complete about a one-page
application- which can usually be done online. You can avail the following services.

1. Bill payment service: Each bank has tie-ups with various utility companies,
service providers and insurance companies, across the country. It facilitates the
payment of electricity and telephone bills, mobile phone, credit card and insurance
premium bills. To pay bills, a simple one-time registration for each biller is to be
completed. Standing instructions can be set, online to pay recurring bills,
automatically. One-time standing instruction will ensure that bill payments do not
get delayed due to lack of time. Most interestingly, the bank does not charge
customers for online bill payment.

2. Fund transfer: Any amount can be transferred from one account to another of
the same or any another bank. Customers can send money anywhere in India.
Payee’s account number, his bank and the branch is needed to be mentioned after
logging in the account. The transfer will take place in a day or so, whereas in a
traditional method, it takes about three working days. ICICI Bank says that online
bill payment service and fund transfer facility have been their most popular online
services.

3. Credit card customers: Credit card users have a lot in store. With Internet
banking, customers can not only pay their credit card bills online but also get a loan
on their cards. Not just this, they can also apply for an additional card, request a
credit line increase and God forbid if you lose your credit card, you can report lost
card online.

4. Railway pass: This is something that would interest all the aam janta. Indian
Railways has tied up with ICICI bank and you can now make your railway pass for
local trains online. The pass will be delivered to you at your doorstep. But the facility
is limited to Mumbai, Thane, Nasik, Surat and Pune. The bank would just charge Rs
10 + 12.24 percent of service tax.

5. Investing through Internet banking: Opening a fixed deposit account cannot


get easier than this. An FD can be opened online through funds transfer. Online
banking can also be a great friend for lazy investors. Now investors with interlinked
demat account and bank account can easily trade in the stock market and the
amount will be automatically debited from their respective bank accounts and the
shares will be credited in their demat account. Moreover, some banks even give the
facility to purchase mutual funds directly from the online banking system. So it
removes the worry about filling those big forms for mutual funds, they will now be
just a few clicks away. Nowadays, most leading banks offer both online banking and
demat account. However if the customer have there demat account with
independent share brokers, then need to sign a special form, which will link your
two accounts.
13
6. Recharging your prepaid phone: Now there is no need to rush to the vendor
to recharge the prepaid phone, every time the talk time runs out. Just top-up the
prepaid mobile cards by logging in to Internet banking. By just selecting the
operator's name, entering the mobile number and the amount for recharge, the
phone is again back in action within few minutes.

7. Shopping at your fingertips: Leading banks have tie ups with various
shopping websites. With a range of all kind of products, one can shop online and the
payment is also made conveniently through the account. One can also buy railway
and air tickets through Internet banking.
