BFSI------Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (also known as BFSI) is an
industry name. This term is commonly used by IT/ITES/BPO companies to refer to the
services they offer to companies in these domains. Banking may include core banking,
retail, private, corporate, investment, cards and the like. Financial Services may include
stock-broking, payment gateways, mutual funds etc. Insurance covers both life and non-
6. life. A lot of data processing, application testing and software development activities are
outsourced to companies that specialise in this domain
The banking sector is the most dominant sector of the financial system in India, and with
good valuations and increasing profits, the sector has been among the top performers in
the markets.
India has the potential to process 30 per cent of the banking transactions in the US by
the year 2010. Outsourcing by the BFSI to India is expected to grow at an annual rate of
30-35 per cent.
With increasing competitive pressure, it is getting harder for BFSI enterprises to ‘win
and keep’ customers. The move to adopt CRM solutions and customer focused
technology is driven by the increasing need for maintaining and enhancing customer
relationships.
The Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI in India is expected to grow from
$1.6 billion in 2009 to $2.7 billion in 2013, growing at a CAGR of 14.2 per cent,
according to Springboard Research, a player in the IT market research industry.
Indian BFSI enterprises are benefiting from the 'green' consolidation of storage, server,
and data center-based applications. However, the primary reason of adoption continues
to be ‘cost-benefit’ and not the ‘social cause’ attached to it.
The immediate projects from BFSI sector include those relating to mobile banking and
banks’ plan to integrate regional rural banks (RRBs) and branches.
The banking industry in North America has been hit hard by the sub-prime crisis, which
has resulted in huge losses thereby bringing the world’s largest economy on the verge of
recession.

4. Marketing Mix Strategy
The marketing mix is the combination of marketing activities that an
organisation engages in so as to best meet the needs of its targeted market.
Traditionally the marketing mix consisted of just 4 Ps.
The marketing mix thus consists of four main elements:
1. Product
2. Price
3. Place
4. Promotion.
Getting the mix of these elements right enables the organisation to meet its
marketing objectives and to satisfy the requirements of customers.
In addition to the traditional four Ps it is now customary to add some more
Ps to the mix to give us Seven Ps. The three extra Ps are:
5. Physical layout
6. people
7.Processes
The 7 Ps - price, product, place, promotion, physical presence, provision of
service, and processes comprise the modern marketing mix that is
particularly relevant in service industry, but is also relevant to any form of
business where meeting the needs of customers is given priority.
Marketing Mix of SBI

customer.
Like-CASA(current and saving account),loan,Credit Card facility etc. The
Senior Citizen Services from SBI Bank has several advantages that are
tailored to bring more convenience and enjoyment in your life.
2.Price –Although competing on price is as old as mankind, the consumer is often
still sensitive for price discounts and special offers. Price has also an irrational side:
29. something that is expensive must be good. Permanently competing on price is for
many banks not a very sensible approach. Price or Charges for opening senior
citizen account are discounted.
3.Place – Location of SBI banks are at convinient place so people can
avail benefit easily.
Generally ATM services of SBI bank are available at all of its branches
making it easy for customer.Placement of all branches are well organised
with respect to city layout.
4.Promotion – Promotional activities of SBI is carried through
channel,Team members,E-marketing,Tele marketing,Pamplets display in
branches.
5.People-All people directly or indirectly involved in the consumption of a service are
an important part of the extended marketing mix. Knowledge Workers, Employees,
Management and other Consumers often add significant value to the total product or
service offering.People of Sbi branches are co-operative and ready to help.
6.Physical Layout – All the Sbi branches have different department s for query
resolution and even the name and designation of employee who solve the problem is
mention on his/her desk so it is so easy for a customer to recognize.Environment of Sbi
is very helpful.For customer comfort all branches have central AC.
7.Process - Procedure, mechanisms and flow of activities by which services are
consumed (customer management processes) are an essential element of the marketing
strategy,which is very well managed in all branches of SBI.

38. Marketing Strategy
Serving the majority of the country’s populace, state owned banks had a large branch
network, with minimal or no automation and little focus on service.
Foreign banks, on the other hand, deployed high-end technology, had innovative
product offerings, but had a very small branch network that serviced only corporate's
and individuals with high net-worth.
Sensing an untapped opportunity, that rivaled the foreign banks, on a much larger
scale, at a lower cost. A crucial aspect of this strategy was the emphasis on technology.
ICICI Bank positioned itself as technology-savvy customer friendly bank.
To support its technology focused strategy, ICICI Bank needed a robust technology
platform that would help it achieve its business goals. After an intense evaluation of
several global vendors, ICICI Bank identified Infosys as its technology partner and
selected Finacle, the universal banking solution from Infosys, as its core banking
platform. An open systems approach and low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) were
some of the key benefits Finacle offered the bank.
39. Marketing Strategy include:
• Road Shows
• Direct Marketing
• Mass media inbound calls

products from rural and small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Towards this end, the Bank
has assisted exports of honey, financed setting up of food processing plants in select states,
exports of dried flowers, medicinal plants, etc., where the SMEs supported have developed
backward linkages with farmers / rural poor for procurement of raw materials.

exporters to obtain loans that facilitate the export of goods or services. These working capital

liquidity to accept new business, grow your international sales and compete more effectively
in the international marketplace.

Size: There is no minimum or maximum transaction amount.
Coverage: Ex-Im Bank generally guarantees 90% of the bank loan, including principal and
interest.
Delegated Authority Lenders: Our pre-qualified commercial lender partners, working under
Ex-Im Bank’s delegated authority, can expedite the loan process by committing our
guarantee without prior Ex-Im Bank approval. Most of Ex-Im Bank’s working capital
guarantees are provided through these lenders.
Repayment Terms: Typically, loan terms are for one year but can be up to three years. The
loan can be either transaction-specific or revolving.
Collateral: These guaranteed working capital loans are secured by export-related accounts
receivable and inventory (including work-in-process) tied to an export order. For letters of
credit issued under the guaranteed loan, we only require collateral for 25% of the value of the
letter of credit.
2.Export credit Insurance : Ex-Im Bank’s export credit insurance allows you to
increase your export sales by limiting your international risk, offering credit to your
international buyers, and enabling you to access working capital funds.
i)Small Business Export Credit Insurance Policy - The policy is a special product for
small, financially viable businesses that are new to exporting, or have only occasionally
exported. It can help increase an exporter's international sales by extending competitive credit
62. terms while minimizing risks, and is valuable as a:
• Eligible products must have at least 51% U.S. content, including labor but excluding
mark-up. Eligible services must be performed by US-based personnel.
• The policy insures all shipments on credit terms (including documentary credits,
unconfirmed letters of credit and open account) to all eligible countries during the
policy period, generally one year. The policy may be renewed annually.
• Credit terms up to 180 days; exceptionally up to 360 days for qualifying transactions
(such as capital equipment and bulk, unprocessed agricultural commodities).
• Excluded from coverage are confirmed letters of credit, cash-in-advance sales, and
certain military and defense-related items.
• Special incentives are offered for small business exporters of specified
environmentally related products and services.
ii)Foreign Dealer Insurance policy
Foreign dealerships are a strategic distribution channel for U.S.-manufactured machinery,
equipment and spare parts. The Foreign Dealer Insurance Policy is designed to provide
flexible, competitive support for financing the capital goods exports of small, medium and
large U.S. manufacturers through foreign dealerships.
The unique feature of this insurance policy is its ability to cover "floor plan/rollover"
financing. This form of financing combines short-term financing of inventory acquired for
resale with the option to rollover (i.e., to refinance) that financing for a longer term in order
to better match the dealer's financing requirements. The Foreign Dealer Insurance Policy is
currently available to financial institutions; a supplier credit version for exporters is planned
for a later date.
3.Loan Guaranteee - Ex-Im Bank assists exporters by guaranteeing term financing to
creditworthy international buyers, both private and public sector, for purchases of U.S. goods
and services. With Ex-Im Bank’s loan guarantee, international buyers are able to obtain
63. competitive term financing from lenders when financing is otherwise not available or there
are no economically viable interest rates on terms over one-to-two years.
i) Project and Structure Finance
Ex-Im Bank offers a range of financing solutions for U.S. exporters and their international
customers. Limited recourse (project) and structured financing are two options that offer
maximum flexibility for project sponsors and help U.S. exporters compete globally in natural
resource and infrastructure sectors.
Ex-Im Bank can consider limited recourse project financing in most countries and has no
country or project dollar limits.
In either project or structured finance, Ex-Im Bank has two primary goals:
• To maximize U.S. company participation in the transaction in order to support U.S.
jobs; and
• To lend responsibly into creditworthy projects in order to protect the interests of our
"shareholders," the U.S. taxpayers.
4.Finance Lease Guarantee :
Ex-Im Bank supports competitive medium-term financing structured as finance leases in
addition to financing structured as installment loans. Support of lease financing is important
since some foreign buyers of U.S. capital goods prefer lease financing as an alternative to
traditional installment loans. Ex-Im Bank will guarantee lease financing of U.S. goods and
services to creditworthy international lessees, both private and public sector, when financing
64. is otherwise not available or applicable interest rates are not economically viable.
