Interest is charged only on the amount actually drawn and not on the amount placed to the credit of borrowers account.

The specified amount is put on the credit of the borrowers account. He can withdraw this amount in lump sum or can draw cheques against this sum for any amount. Interest is charged on the full amount even if the borrower does not utilise it. The rate of interest is lower on loans in comparison to cash credit.

Different methods of Granting Loans by Bank

Discounting of Bills Apart from granting cash credit, loans and overdraft, banks also grant financial assistance to customers by discounting bills of exchange. Banks purchase the bills at face value minus interest at current rate of interest for the period of the bill. This is known as discounting of bills. Bills of exchange are negotiable instruments and enable the debtors to discharge their obligations towards their creditors. Such bills of exchange arise out of commercial transactions both in internal trade and external trade. By discounting these bills before they are due for a nominal amount, the banks help the business community. Of course, the banks recover the full amount of these bills from the persons liable to make payment.

Module-3

When we walk into a real world store we basically have three ways to pay for an item. These are:

Cash (most common form of payment) Cheques Payment card (i.e. debit cards, credit cards, smart cards or automated teller machine (ATM) cards)

These account for more than 85% of consumer transactions worldwide

Cash has some important properties:

It is convenient since it is easy to use, to carry and easy to handle in small quantities It is widely accepted It provides anonymity It does not have associated processing fees It has no audit trail (maintains privacy

There are several problems associated with the use of cash, however which include:

It is easy to lose It is difficult to trace (e.g. when used in criminal activities) It introduces a security risk when being transported It is time-consuming to count, organise and manage

A Cheque, on the other hand is a written order by an account holder to his banker to pay a specified sum of money to the bearer or named recipient. Clearly one of the problems associated with cheques is the clearing time A payment system which is increasing in popularity in the US is electronic transfer There are two tests that should be considered when transferring money. These are: The ACID Test The ICES Test

The Acid Test The ACID test has four properties:

Atomicity: The complete transaction must occur (e.g. a payment of $50 means that the intended recipient(s) will receive the $50) Consistency: All parties in the transaction must agree to the exchange Isolation: The given transaction must be independent of all other transactions Durability: The exchange must be reversible

The ICES Test The ICES test also has four properties:

Interoperability: Money from a given system must be able to move back and forth between other systems (e.g. moving money from system X to cash) Conservation: Does the money hold its value over time (temporal consistency); how easy is it to store and access (temporal durability) Economy: Transaction processing should be cheap Scalability: How many users can be handled at the same time?

Electronic Payments
Electronic Payments An e-commerce payment environment requires a more complex design which includes:

Payment security Transaction privacy System integrity Customer authentication The purchasers promise to pay

Electronic Payments Contd


Electronic Payments Contd Electronic payments are financial transactions that do not require paper Electronic payments are far cheaper than mailing paper checks Cost of billing a person by mail ranges from US$1 to US$1.50 Billing a person electronically cost about US$0.50 Replacing paper bills also saves on trees Four properties (in addition to the ACID and ICES Tests) should also be considered:

Acceptability: Must be widely accepted, by customers and merchants alike Ease of Integration: Effective Web interface Customer base: It should be financially viable Ease of use and access

Electronic Payments Contd


Payment Cards Contd The main categories of payment cards are:

Credit cards (e.g. Visa) Debit cards Charge Cards

To be able to accept payments via credit cards: The seller must open a merchant account With this account the seller can accept and process credit cards

During processing only the card numbers and transactions are known (normally authorisation is provided through a customer signing a payment slip To be able to accept payments via credit cards:

A secure and encrypted line is required to accept payments

The most popular solution used is Secure Socket Layer (SSL) which is built into Netscape Navigator and Microsofts Internet Explore browser
The shopping cart connects to a payment processing system, calculates costs and taxes and generates a bill

A shopping cart is also required to allow users to collect their purchase

The processing of credit cards

Payment Cards Contd 1. The customer places the order on the merchants Web site (shipping and payment information is included) 2. The customer verifies the order 3. The encrypted order is sent to the payment server by the merchant 4. The payment server receives the payment information, takes it behind a firewall, reformats it and forwards to to the merchant bank over a secure, dedicated line 5. The merchant bank forwards an authorisation request to the issuing bank for approval or denial and the decision is sent back to the payment server 6. The approval or denial is communicated back to the merchant and delivered to the customer

Payment Cards Contd


Payment Cards Contd Some of the issues associated with credit cards are:

They leave a complete audit trail They are insecure

A signature does not get verified which makes it difficult to assure the identity of a person
The banks review financial records and business history

** Banks should set up service branches at centres where they have more than 10 branches. The service branch so set up would exclusively be devoted to clearing operations of the bank at that particular centre. ** Banks to be in readiness for the introduction of MICR Clearing at the four metropolitan cities by assessing their requirements for encoders, adopting standardised cheque forms and reorganising work procedures where necessary, and training staff down to the branch level

Committees on Communication Network for Banks and SWIFT implementation (1987)

Chairman : Shri T.N.A.Iyer Recommendations : ** Setting up of X.25 based packet switching network called 'BANKNET' to be jointly owned by the Reserve Bank and the public sector banks.

Exchange rate

Denotes the price or the ratio or the value at which one currency is exchanged for another Exchange rate is very dynamic The foreign exchange market is round-the-clock market due to different time zones Major participants- central banks, commercial banks, forex brokers, corporations, individuals Major banks that act as market-makers always give two-way quotes; gives depth and volume to the market Fundamental reasons Technical reasons Speculation

Reasons of exchange rate variations


Fundamental reasons

Balance of payments-surplus->appreciation Growth rate of the economy- higher growth->depreciation of currency Fiscal policy- financing of fiscal deficit influences exchange rate Monetary policy-loose monetary policy-> depreciation of exchange rate Interest rates- high interest more overseas capital- appreciation Political issues- political stability-steady currency

Technical reasons

Freedom or restrictions on capital movements can affect exchange rates to a large extent Among other factors there are:

Huge trade surpluses of oil exporting countries Capital moving from low-yielding currencies to high yielding currencies (interest differential)

Speculation

Self-fulfilling prophecies

Anticipation of depreciation of a currency can cause dealers to sell that currency

Speculation serves to provide depth and liquidity to the forex market Acts as a cushion as well- contrarian traders exist in the market

Types of exchange rate


Ready/cash- Settlement of funds on the same day (date of the deal). Tom- Settlement of funds takes place on the next working day of the date of the deal Spot- Settlement of funds takes place on the second working day following the date of the deal Forward- Delivery takes place on any day after the date of the deal

In the forex market all rates that are quoted are generally spot rates When delivery takes place beyond the spot date then it is a forward transaction and the forward rate is applicable

Forward rate = Spot rate + Premium (- discount)


If the forward value of a currency is higher than the spot value the currency is said to be at a premium If the above is reversed the currency is said to be at a discount

Forward rate

If the forward value of a currency is higher than the spot value the currency is said to be at a premium If the above is reversed the currency is said to be at a discount Only a small fraction of daily transactions in foreign exchange involve trading of currency Most foreign exchange transactions involve transfer of bank deposits
