Competition is seen in the economy. Now the present scenario of the business world is quite
different from the past. Ethics, conflicts, new ideologies and energy scarcities are just the few
of characteristics that present quite different from the past.

world is a need today. M.B.A. Programs and management institution provide a global manager

Industrial knowledge is like a coin, which has two sides. One is theoretical and another is
practical knowledge. Both are very important for report. But in fact practical knowledge is
more important than theoretical.

Hence in order to get familiar with the practical knowledge each student is required to
implement the theoretical aspects of the subject into the practical life work. It was a purposeful
and enriching experience for me. Apart from theoretical aspect, we gained a lot of new things
about practical knowledge. I have made this project to implement the theoretical aspects of the
subject in to a practical work.

There appears to be no consistency among the business analyst about the root of "Bank"
According to a few creators "Bank", itself is gotten from "Bancus" or "Banquet" that is a seat.
The early financiers, the Jews in Lombardy, executed their business on seats in the commercial
center, when, an investor fizzled, his 'Banco' was separated by the general population; it was
called 'Bankrupt'. This historical background is be that as it may, derided by McLeod on the
ground that "The Italian Money changers accordingly were never called Banchier in the
medieval times”. It is for the most part said that "Bank" has been begun in Italy. Amidst twelfth
century there was an extraordinary monetary emergency in Italy because of war. To meet the
war costs, the legislature of that period a constrained bought in advance on natives of the nation

at the enthusiasm of 5% for each annum. Such credits were known as 'Analyze', 'Minto' and so
forth. The most widely recognized name was "Monte'. In Germany the word 'Monte was named
as 'Bank' or 'Banke'. As indicated by a few scholars, the word 'Bank' has been gotten from the
word bank.

It is additionally said that the word 'bank' has been gotten from the word 'Banco' which implies
a seat. The Jews cash loan specialists in Italy used to execute their business sitting on seats at
various commercial centers. At the point when any of them used to neglect to meet his
commitments, his 'Banco' or branch or seat would be broken by the furious loan bosses. The
word 'Bankrupt' is by all accounts started from broken Banco. Since, the managing an account
framework has been begun from cash driving business; it is properly contended that the word
'Bank' has been started from "Banco'. Whatever be the birthplace of the word 'Bank' as
Professor Ram Chandra Rao says, "It would follow the historical backdrop of managing an
account in Europe from the medieval times".

Today the word bank is utilized as a far reaching term for various establishments carrying on
specific sorts of money related business. Practically speaking, the word 'Bank' implies which
gets cash from one class of individuals and again loans cash to another class of individuals for
premium or benefit.

In reality importance of bank isn't indicates in any control or act. In India, diverse individuals
have distinctive sort of importance for bank. Typical pay worker knows methods for bank that
it is a sparing establishment, for current record holder or businessperson knows bank as a
money related foundations and numerous other. Bank isn't revenue driven making, it makes
sparing action in compensation worker.

History of Bank:
The first banks were probably the religious temples of the ancient world, and were probably
established sometime during the third millennium B.C. Banks probably predated the
invention of money. Deposits initially consisted of grain and later other goods including
cattle, agricultural implements, and eventually Precious metals such as gold, in the form of
easy to-carry compressed plates. Temples and palaces were the safest places to store gold as
they were constantly attended and well built. As sacred places, temples presented an extra
deterrent to would-be thieves. There are extant records of loans from the 18th century BC in
Babylon that were made by temple priests/monks to merchants. By the time of Hammurabi`s
Code, banking was well enough developed to justify the promulgation of laws governing
banking operations.

Ancient Greece holds further evidence of banking. Greek temples, as well as private and civic
entities, conducted financial transactions such as loans, deposits, currency exchange, and
validation of coinage. There is evidence too of credit, whereby in return for a payment from a
client, a moneylender in one Greek port would write a credit note for the client who could
"cash" the note in another City, saving the client the danger of carting coinage with him on his
journey. Pythons, who operated as a merchant banker throughout Asia Minor at the beginning
of the 5th century B.C., is the first individual banker of whom we have records. Many of the
early bankers in Greek city-states were “metics” or foreign residents.

Around the season of Adam Smith (1776) there was an enormous development in the saving
money industry. Banks assumed a key part in moving from gold and silver based coinage to
paper cash, redeemable against the bank's property. Such developing internationalization and
opportunity in money related administrations has totally changed the aggressive scene, as now
numerous banks have shown an inclination for the "all-inclusive saving money" demonstrate
pervasive in Europe. All-inclusive banks are allowed to take part in all types of monetary
administrations, make interests in customer organizations, and capacity however much as could
reasonably be expected as a "one-stop" provider of both retail and discount money related
administrations.

Oakbrook Business School


Kotak Mahindra Bank

(jain, 17 may 2003) Argues that designing portfolio for a client is much more than merely
picking up securities for investment. The portfolio manager needs to understand the psyche of
his client while designing his portfolio. According to Gupta, investors in India regard equity,
debentures and company deposits as being in more or less the same risk category and consider
including all mutual funds, including all equity funds, almost as safe as bank deposits.

to support selection ability among active fund investors.

(rajarajan, 1999)Has examined that, the individual investors occupy a prominent place in the
economic development of a nation. Their savings pattern needs considerable attention. This
article examines the relationship between the various stages in the life cycle of individual
investors and their investment size and their investments in risky assets, on the basis of primary
data collected from 450 individual investors. This study finds the existence of systematic
relationship among them.

(SELVI, September 2015)Investors have a lot of investment avenues to park their savings.
The risk and returns available from each of these investment avenues differ from one avenue
to another. The investors expect more returns with relatively lesser risks. In this regard, the
financial advisors and consultants offer various suggestions to the investors. The available
literature relating to the investors' attitude towards investment avenues is very little and failed
to provide a lot of information. An attempt has been made in this study to find out the main
objective of the investors in Coimbatore District towards making investments and to assess the
investors' attitude towards the investment avenues.

(Dr.M.Mohana Sundari, 2016) The person dealing with the planning must know all the
various investment choices and how these can be chosen for the purpose of attaining the overall
objectives. The details of making the investment along with the various ways in which the
investment has to be maintained and managed. The expectations of the investors, their
perception towards various products/ investment avenues, their current pattern of investment
have to be understood to serve them well and also to offer better products.

(M.geetha, may 2012) This study attempts to find out the significance of demographic factors
of population such as gender, age, education, occupation, income, savings and family size over
several elements of investment decisions like priorities based on characteristics of investments,
period of investment, reach of information source, frequency of investment and analytical
abilities. The study was made by conducting a survey in Nagapattinam district of Tamilnadu,
South India and the statistical inferences were deduced using computer software tools. The
study reveals that the demographic factors have a significant influence over some of the
investment decision elements and insignificant in others elements too. The study also discloses
a general view of investor’s perception over various investment avenues.

(Bhushan, January 2014) Diverse financial products have been introduced these days in
Indian market. Each of these financial products offer a range of benefits and varying options
with respect to interest rates, exposure to risk, time period of the contract, fees etc. Most of
the individuals are not able to take advantage of higher returns offered by these products due
to lack of financial awareness. Thus they must be made aware about risk and return
characteristics of these products by designing an appropriate financial education program so
that people can invest in these financial products. For designing an effective financial education
program, current awareness level as well as investment behavior of individuals towards

financial products must be known. This paper examines the awareness level and investment
behavior of salaried individuals towards financial products. Results of the study suggest
that respondents are quite aware about traditional and safe financial products whereas
awareness level of new age financial products among the population is low. Also majority of
the respondents park their money in traditional and safe investment avenue.

for economic development of India. They influence demand and supply of need and comfort
products at a great extent. Their saving and investment pattern gets influenced by their future
needs, have wide scope for researchers due to greater impact on the investment market. In this
paper, researchers want to discuss about investment behavior adopted by middle class as
seeker, included both groups engaged in either service or business, whose income exist between
Rs.2,00,000 to Rs.5,00,000 per annum. The reason behind selecting the particular income
group is to find that how to manage their investment with small income after spend their hug
expenses. The study has conducted to answer few important questions about preferences of the
investment instrument as real estate, bullion, precious stones, money market and capital market
etc.

(Ms.k.j.anju, september 2015) Today the financial services sector has become highly
diversified offering the investor with a wide range of investment avenues. With proper
investment strategies and financial planning investor can increase personal wealth which will
contribute to higher economic growth. Economic growth is among the most vital factors
affecting the quality of life that people lead in a country. Three variables that measure the
growth of an economy are Income, Saving and Investment. In this paper miscellaneous
literature existing globally has been reconnoitered to recognize the investor's behavior. Using
interpretative approach viz., objectives, sample, research methodology and results of the study
have been taken for further enquiry. This study constructs a robust conceptual framework for
the researchers by meticulously analyzing the experimental studies on investor behaviour in
different countries. The paper exhibits that there are numerous variables that direct an investor's
decision to invest. Further, we propose an empirical study to determine the relationship
between the income, saving and investment behaviour among the IT professionals of
Bangalore. The results from the proposed study could be of great relevance to the investors for
their wealth management and to the policy makers, the investment agencies, the researchers as
well as managers of the firms to prepare themselves to respond to the varying behaviour of the
investor.

(kumari, july 2017)Impact of behavioral finance in investment decisions and strategies – A


fresh approach, has mentioned that emotions and cognitive errors influence investors in the
decision making process. Various causes that lead to behavioral finance are anchoring, over-
confidence, herd behavior, over and under reaction and loss aversion. Behavioral finance offers
many useful insights for investment professionals and thus provides a framework for evaluating
active investment strategies for the investors.

4. PROBLEM STATEMENT

Oakbrook Business School


Kotak Mahindra Bank

(kumar, 4 Decembar 2015) The development of any economy depends on healthy savings
and proper allocation of capital for the developmental activities of any country. The reduction
of disposable income or increase in per-capita income will contribute to savings. The avenues
of investment and the investors’ opinion based on their preferences vary from person to person.
Liquidity and safety play a major role in the investment decision; tax exemption and other
factors are also taken into consideration. Apart from the above factors, there are demographic
factors which influence the decision on investment. This article discusses the factors which
affect the investment behavior of individuals.

5. INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC

Oakbrook Business School


Kotak Mahindra Bank

Introduction of investment:

Now-a-days a wide range of investment opportunities are available to the investor. These are
primarily bank deposits, corporate deposits, bonds, units of mutual funds, instruments under
National Savings Schemes, pension plans, insurance policies, equity shares etc. All these
instruments compete with each other for the attraction of investors. Each instrument has its
own return, risk, liquidity and safety profile. The profiles of households differ depending upon
the income-saving ratio, age of the household’s head, number of dependents etc. The investors
tend to match their needs with the features of the instrument available for investment. They do
have varying degrees of preferences for savings vehicles.

Every investor tends to keep some cash balance and maintain a certain amount in the form of
bank deposit to meet his/her transaction and precautionary needs. In the case of salaried people,
contributions to Employees Provident Fund become compulsory. Life Insurance is widely
preferred to meet situations arising out of untimely deaths of the bread earner. Besides these
needs, the surplus income (savings) awaits investment in alternative financial assets. Investors
have to take decisions relating to their investment in competing assets/ avenues. An investor
has a wide array of investment avenues.

DEFINITION OF INVESTMENT
Different thinkers interpret the word ‘Investment’ in their own ways in different periods.
However, the ideology or concept of investment is same in between them.
Some famous definitions of Investment are;
- “Sacrifice of certain present value for some uncertain future value”
-WILLIAM F. SHARPE
- “Purchase of a financial asset that produce a yield that is proportional to the risk assumed
over some future investment period”
-F. AMLING

Types of investment:-

2. Fixed deposit
3. Sovereign gold bond scheme
4. Kotak ASBA facility
5. Currency

8. Portfolio management service

1. Mutual fund: A mutual fund is a type of financial vehicle made up of a pool of


money collected from many investors to invest in securities such as stocks, bonds,
money market instruments, and other assets. Mutual funds are operated by
professional money managers, who allocate the fund's assets and attempt to produce
capital gains or income for the fund's investors. A mutual fund's portfolio is structured
and maintained to match the investment objectives stated in its prospectus.

Mutual funds give small or individual investors access to professionally managed


portfolios of equities, bonds and other securities. Each shareholder, therefore,
participates proportionally in the gains or losses of the fund. Mutual funds invest in a
vast number of securities, and performance is usually tracked as the change in the
total market cap of the fund—derived by the aggregating performance of the underlying
investments.

2. Fixed-Income Funds: Another big group is the fixed income category. A fixed
income mutual fund focuses on investments that pay a set rate of return, such as
government bonds, corporate bonds, or other debt instruments. The idea is that the
fund portfolio generates interest income, which then passes on to shareholders.

3. Index Funds: Another group, which has become extremely popular in the last few
years, falls under the moniker "index funds." Their investment strategy is based on
the belief that it is very hard, and often expensive, to try to beat the market
consistently. So, the index fund manager buys stocks that correspond with a major
market index such as the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA).
This strategy requires less research from analysts and advisors, so there are fewer

expenses to eat up returns before they are passed on to shareholders. These funds
are often designed with cost-sensitive investors in mind.

4. Balanced Funds: Balanced funds invest in both stocks and bonds to reduce the
risk of exposure to one asset class or another. Another name for this type of mutual
fund is "asset allocation fund." An investor may expect to find the allocation of
these funds among asset classes relatively unchanging, though it will differ among
funds. This fund's goal is asset appreciation with lower risk. However, these funds
carry the same risk and can be as subject to fluctuation as other classifications of
funds.

2. Fixed deposit: Fixed deposit is investment instruments offered by banks and non-
banking financial companies, where you can deposit money for a higher rate of interest
than savings accounts. You can deposit a lump sum of money in fixed deposit for a
specific period, which varies for every financier.
Once the money is invested with a reliable financier, it starts earning an interest based
on the duration of the deposit. Usually, the defining criteria for FD is that the money
cannot be withdrawn before maturity, but you may withdraw them after paying a
penalty.

3. Sovereign gold bond scheme: Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme from Kotak
Mahindra Bank are RBI issued securities which are denominated in grams of gold.
Since these are substitutes of physical gold people have to invest in these bonds in cash
and after redemption receive only cash.

4. Kotak ASBA facility: ASBA can be opened with a Self-Certified Syndicate Bank
(SCSB) as per SEBI guidelines. Not all banks are enlisted as SCSB. Kotak Mahindra Bank is
an SCSB. Also, the ASBA IPO Application form can be submitted at the bank branch, which
is designated for the purpose.

5. Currency: The foreign exchange market (forex) is the market where world currencies
are traded 24 hours a day. For some, it's simply a mechanism for changing one currency
into another, such as multinational corporations doing business in various countries.
Here are five ways for a retail investor to participate in this market.

6. Commodity: A commodity is a basic good used in commerce that is interchangeable


with other commodities of the same type. Commodities are most often used as inputs
in the production of other goods or services. The quality of a given commodity may
differ slightly, but it is essentially uniform across producers. When they are traded on
an exchange, commodities must also meet specified minimum standards, also known
as a basis grade.

7. Insurance: Investment Plans are financial products that provide the opportunity to
create wealth for future. Life Insurance products are often used as investment
instruments. These type of saving scheme or investments offer life coverage and returns
but differ in their construct.

8. Real estate: Real estate investing involves the purchase, ownership, management,
rental and/or sale of real estate for profit. Improvement of realty property as part of a
real estate investment strategy is generally considered to be a sub-specialty of real estate
investing called real estate development.

9. Portfolio management service: Portfolio Management Services (PMS), service


offered by the Portfolio Manager, is an investment portfolio in stocks, fixed income,
debt, cash, structured products and other individual securities, managed by a
professional money manager that can potentially be tailored to meet specific investment
objectives.

10. National pension system: The National Pension Scheme allows online
investment. It is handled by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority
(PFRDA). The scheme was launched on 1st January, 2004 with a purpose of reforming
pension in India, it is the cheapest market-linked retirement plan available in India.
