That is if you still use those booklets. Since your bank’s mobile app allows you to do all this and much more online, can there be more digitisation in banking? Well, the new CEO of Kotak Mahindra Bank Ashok Vaswani thinks that a lot more technology can be deployed in banks. As the CEO of Barclays Bank UK, Vaswani knows how the lives of consumers can transform with digitisation. He is also cognisant of the fact that a bank does not only cater to millennials or GenZ population. At Barclays, he had a team of tech experts to help consumers who were even in their 1990s such that they could learn not just digital banking but even chat with grandkids on Skype or Zoom. That is how the new CEO of Kotak Mahindra Bank thinks, given that his head and heart are in the right place. At a time when banks are struggling to keep consumers happy while maintaining high profit margins, Vaswani could well be the man who can plug the gaps. And, if there’s something he can talk about for hours, it is the technological transformation of financial services. Not only is he cognisant of the ease that digital banking brings, but also the risk that comes along with it. This generational shift at India’s fourth largest private bank in India clearly wants to up its game in the years to come by leveraging technology to transform not only its operations but also create new and better services for its customers. Imagine an AI Bot that actually tells consumers every month on how spending on eating out is much more than feasible or that average monthly savings are not good enough when you retire. Yes, Vaswani believes that is the next stage of banking as it can open up different ecosystems. In an interview a few years ago at the University of West England, Bristol, he said: “I would submit that a lot more digitisation can happen. Why would I not be able to tell you, you are earning so much, you are spending this much and you should be saving. Can you imagine, you spent so much money on Uber and that you should be careful?” There are so many aspects of digital transformation that limits are frankly only set in the mind. As the CEO of Barclays UK, he has not just built a lot of products for consumers but even their confidence in the bank and the banking system. It is a refreshing change to hear a CEO talk about confidence in the company and not just on margins. Vaswani has a proven track record spanning three and a half decades across the world’s leading banks. He was initially at Citigroup and more recently, at Barclays, where he built and grew the business to a scale. He brings with him significant executional experience with a high degree of compliance and industrial strength across corporate and consumer businesses. Vaswani was Chief Executive Officer of Barclays Bank, UK and subsequently CEO of their global consumer, private, corporate and payments businesses and Member of the group executive committee. Earlier, he was CEO Citigroup Asia Pacific and Member of the Citigroup Global Operating Management Committees. He also built and ran various country and regional businesses across geographies. What makes him interesting is that he has not only run global banks but has even been president of Pagaya Technologies, a US-Israeli AI fintech company. This kind of exposure makes him a much better candidate than any insider at Kotak Mahindra Bank. At last count, there were three top contenders for the job, but Uday Kotak has roped in an outsider given the extent of the transformation that the bank will need to undertake to remain relevant in the face of competition from other fintechs. Ashok is married to Veena and their daughter is working in the United States of America. It is interesting that Uday Kotak, first generation founder and promoter of Kotak Mahindra Bank, has brought in an outsider to run the bank. Organisations typically are wary of bringing in outsiders at top jobs mostly because of the friction that results from such hiring due to cultural fitment and acceptance of a known candidate. It is easier for the rank and file to accept an insider rather than an outsider but Uday Kotak has chosen to take the risky route. While in some unfortunate cases like Infosys, where Vishal Sikka did not fare too well when promoters stepped away in 2014, the experiment of outsiders has been rather successful at the Tata Group. When Ratan Tata took over the reins at the Tata Group, he brought in Kishor Chaukar who came from ICICI Securities to head Tata Industries. Ravi Kant came in from Philips India in 1999, and headed commercial vehicles for Tata Motors before becoming MD in 2005. In 1998, the then vice-chairman of Hindustan Lever (now known as Hindustan Unilever), moved to Tata Sons as executive director. Typically, Indian corporations bring in overseas talent when they believe that the requisite skills are not available in India. But given that India’s private banking sector has grown and flourished under the stewardship of homegrown talent, this shift is an interesting move by Uday Kotak, who clearly sees merit in Vaswani’s experience outside of India. No wonder Uday Kotak, Founder and Director, Kotak Mahindra Bank said: “I am proud that we bring a ‘Global Indian’ home to build Kotak and India of tomorrow.” Interestingly, Ashok Vaswani is a Bachelor of Commerce, Economics and Accountancy, from the Sydenham College of Commerce and Economics (Bombay University), CA from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, CS from the Institute of Company Secretaries of India and Executive Education from the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. Uday Kotak too is alumnus of Sydenham College and has a postgraduate degree in management studies in 1982 from Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies.

On Thursday, the Sensex and the Nifty50 had closed 0.9% lower. “The global market's cautious attitude towards the probability of a sharper rate hike was exacerbated by further negative signs from the US market.

Foreign institutional investors sold Indian equities worth ₹2,061 crore on Friday while domestic institutional investors bought equities worth ₹1,350 crore. “While markets are down sharply today, one should not be surprised since the current markets are grappling with questions around various aspects including interest rates and expected economic slowdown, to which there are no clear answers. In such a scenario there will be events that have the potential to cause spiralling damage. These need to be watched for stabilisation.

The Hang Seng fell the most at 3.04%. The Nikkei 225 was down 1.67%, Taiwan Weighted closed down 1.55%, the Shanghai Composite was down 1.40% and KOSPI down 1.01%. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="US’ Silicon Valley Bank’s plunge to have limited impact on Indian banking stocks" comment="subhead" text="US’ Silicon Valley Bank’s plunge to have limited impact on Indian banking stocks">US’ Silicon Valley Bank’s plunge to have limited impact on Indian banking stocks</cmsannotation> Meanwhile in the US, shares of Silicon Valley Bank, a prominent US bank that caters to nearly half of the venture capital-funded startups in the US, plummeted on Thursday amid mounting concerns about the bank’s health. Its stock sank over 60% on Thursday, and over the last one year, it is down over 80%. This has spooked investors as there are worries of a ripple effect. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.66% while the S&amp;P 500 was down 1.85%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was down 2.05%. However, this is likely to have limited impact on Indian banking stocks, say analysts. “This is a US-specific issue and will not have an impact on Indian banking stocks. But the sentiment impact can be negative,” said VK Vijayakumar, chief investment strategist at Geojit Financial Services. The origins of Silicon Valley Bank’s crises trace back to 2021, when flush with deposits worth $189 billion at the end of 2021, the bank invested over $80 billion in mortgage backed securities (MBS). Most of these instruments have a 10-year maturity and a yield of 1.56% – much higher than the 0.25% yield on treasury bills. By mid-2022, the US Fed embarked on an aggressive rate hike path to tame inflation. Fast-forward to 2023, the bank is now in a crisis with venture capitalists like <keyword id="380555" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="peter-thiel" source="Orion">Peter Thiel</keyword> asking startups to withdraw their money from the bank. “Overnight developments in US banking: markets, analysts, investors underestimate the importance of financial stability for the balance sheet of a bank.

The country's food gap is equivalent to around two to three months of food use, with the woes deepening in the midst of economic constraints attributable to its ongoing Covid-19 fight, <keyword id="1248424" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="yonhap-news-agency" source="Orion">Yonhap News Agency</keyword> reported citing the data posted on the online <keyword id="14073849" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="world-factbook-of-the-central-intelligence-agency" source="Orion">World Factbook of the Central Intelligence Agency</keyword> (<keyword id="44293" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="cia" source="Orion">CIA</keyword>). "Due to low food consumption levels, poor dietary diversity, and economic downturn, a large portion of the population suffers from low levels of food consumption and very poor dietary diversity," it says. "The economic constraints, particularly resulting from the global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, have increased the population's vulnerability to food insecurity. "If this gap is not adequately covered through commercial imports and/or food aid, households could experience a harsh lean period," it added. The North imposed stringent border controls against the pandemic in early 2020. It even implemented nationwide lockdowns after admitting to a Covid-19 outbreak earlier this month. The CIA put the North's population this year at 25.96 million, with 3.13 million, or 12 per cent of the total, living in the capital city of Pyongyang. The average life expectancy in the nation is estimated at 71.77 years, it said.

Mahindra Bank, it had already announced a qualified institutional placement (QIP) of ₹7,000 crore. This allowed the private lender to raise capital from domestic markets without the need to submit a pre-issue filing with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Despite filing an appeal with the regulator to allow Asia’s richest banker to retain his stake amid the coronavirus pandemic, he is selling his stake to meet the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) mandate of 26%.

Billionaire Uday Kotak all set to get richer after RBI relaxes stock holding rules

New Delhi, Jun 12 () Kotak Mahindra Bank MD and CEO Uday Kotak may have to relinquish his position if a discussion paper floated by the RBI is implemented. The paper, titled 'Governance in Commercial Banks in India', was released by the central bank on Thursday. The paper proposed to limit the tenure of bank Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) and Whole Time Directors (WTDs) to 10 years if the person is from the promoter group, and 15 years if from non-promoter group. Uday Kotak is among the longest-serving CEOs in the private sector banking space, helming Kotak Mahindra Bank since 2003. Another banking veteran Aditya Puri, CEO of HDFC Bank, will retire by the end of this year. RBI has effected changes at the top level in private sector lenders like Axis Bank, Yes Bank and IndusInd Bank. The discussion paper by the RBI bats for greater power for bank boards, separation of ownership from management and setting up of proper risk management strategy. "The objective of the discussion paper is to align the current regulatory framework with global best practices while being mindful of the context of the domestic financial system," the RBI had said. The paper said that growing size and complexity of India's financial system underscores the significance of strengthening governance standards in banks. Stakeholders can send their comments on the discussion paper by July 15, 2020. DP ABM ABM

While HUL could have gained from it, that was not to be. Uday’s father Suresh Kotak, convinced him to open his own business at 300 sq. ft office space. The 23 year old kickstarted a financial consultancy to provide cheap loans to companies. When he started in 1985, the interest rates for loans were very high. On the other hand, depositors too gained next to nothing from banks and deposit rates were low. "I was shocked to find that triple-A-rated borrowers would get money at 17% when families I knew would only get 6% interest on their money," he told <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/28a81150-ebfc-11e3-ab1b-00144feabdc0">the Financial Times. </a> The idea to fix both these gaps, turned out to be revolutionary. Today, Kotak Mahindra Bank is the third most valued private bank in India, serving 14.5 million customers. It has over 1400 branches and $51 million assets as of 2019.
