Dear Sir
A SUGGESTION: PRAXIS (THOUGHT AND ACTION)
Sub: Employees Resurgence Model (ERM) in pursuit of better
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) New Awakening Project
EMPLOYEES RESURGENCE MODEL PROJECT NEW AWAKENING
WHY THE NEED FOR RESURGENCE?
We wish that Indian Overseas Bank sets itself a vision for 2016 to be a pre-eminent
nationalized bank in India, with global presence. We should be a financial supermarket,
with leadership in identified spaces and a bank trusted by customers, shareholders,
employees and other stakeholders.
We have been successful in the past from a ranking of 32 in 2001 in Business Line
survey we reached a position of best public sector bank in 1997 and then slipped to 3 in
2007 and ranked as 12 in 2014 and have gone down considerably to number 14 positions
in 2015.
However, the market is changing the strategies we have successfully adopted in the past
will not allow us to continue on this growth path. The retail asset segment is growing
exponentially, customers are getting younger, technology is transforming the way banks
do business and new, more aggressive competitors are gaining market share.
This has four implications for everyone in the Bank:
I have designed these efforts organized along four initiatives and centers of excellence
mentioned below:
.
GROUND REALIITES AND TASKS AHEAD
However, market dynamics are changing, Size of market doubling every 4-5 years
Indian banking is witnessing a historic transformation through the resurgence of
retail markets.
- The retail segment is expected to account for 50% of the market by 2015
- Note: A RBI data has ranked our Bank as 9 in 1979 while granting ranking by
total assets in 2007. The same data has ranked us 12 in according ranking by total
assets in 2007 and in July 2015 we had moved forward to number10
This retail growth is driven by a changing demographic profile and increased
banking penetration
- Customers are getting younger
- By 2009 10, it is stated additional 40 million households have started banking. On
April 17, 2013 the newspaper The Hindu carried new item titled India is set to become
the youngest country by 2020.The report states the population in the age-group of 15-34
increased from 353 million in 2001 to 430 million in 2011. Current predictions suggest a
steady increase in the youth population to 464 million by 2021 and finally a decline to
458 million by 2026. By 2020, India is set to become the worlds youngest country with
64 per cent of its population in the working age group. With the West, Japan and even
China aging, this demographic potential offers India and its growing economy an
unprecedented edge that economists believe could add a significant 2 per cent to the GDP
growth rate.
A BCG report of 2012 how a billion plus consume states the share of nuclear
households has risen from 61% in 2006 to 66% in 2010. The per capita spending of
nuclear families is 20 to 50% higher than traditional joint families in the same household
income group. due to liberalisation the young population have witnessed firsthand
opening of markets influx of foreign goods and have different beliefs and have made
different choices from their parents , they believe in living in present and have higher
propensity to spend By 2010 it is expected 75% of the Indian population will be of this
generation category . These fundamental forces will drive explosive consumption growth
in the next decade. Their spending on consumer durables alone accounts for 20% to total
consumption. their expenses on food , consumer durables and housing is 65% of the total
consumption in2020 .the report states Indias expenditure on consumer and housing
segment is likely to grow exponentially from 185billion US$ to 750billion US$ nearly 4
times .
Note: largest market share loss for nationalized banks has been in highly profitable
products with gain in low margin products like fixed deposits. Hence to combat these
external changes and internal hurdles, there is a need for rapid and discontinuous
improvement in performance. We have to redesign IOB aircraft while flying. It is in
this context we have presented this paper on ERM. In short we have planned for a
Bank within a Bank with branches to concentrate on marketing, customer service,
select operations and back office branches to perform account opening, chequebooks,
account statement printing etc.
2. SME:
Of the total farmer households, only 27% access formal sources of credit; one
third of this group also borrowed from non-formal sources.

CONCLUSION:
In the history of every company, there is at least one point when one has to change
dramatically rise to the next level. To set ourselves ambitious goals and to reach them, we
need an equally ambitious transformation programme. We are confident that a bank of
our size and capability united behind the banner of Employees Resurgence Model and
Project New Awakening can achieve wonders and propel us to the position we aspire.
All IOBIANS past and present and our dedicated customers who have grown with the
bank wants IOB to grow into a vibrant and robust financial service provider. The time has
come to invest some efforts in making this aspiration a reality.iobains have shown
tremendous resilience in the past. Hence I am confident that this programme has the full
commitment of our members. . Equally I am confident our belief in ourselves to change
will become more effective. I sure that top management will welcome these suggestions
and hold discussions with the union and officer association , share support, participation
and enjoyment in transforming our bank.
Over the next few months, we look forward to the bank for exchange of views about this
paper suggested by us as it unfolds and resolution of our demands on empowerment,
recruitments etc.
Yours faithfully
