...objective is to analyse the impact of mergers and acquisition in banking sector in India. We will try to find out from the experience of US and EU how Indian banking sector will respond if some major players merge together. In this report we will create a situation in which five big players in banking sector merge together and we will analyse the effect of merger on Indian Banking sector. In the past three decades, India's banking system has earned several outstanding achievements to its credit. The most striking is its extensive reach. It is no longer confined to metropolises or cities in India. In fact, Indian banking system has reached even to the remote corners of the country.1 This is one of the main aspects of India's banking growth story. The first banks were Bank of Hindustan (1770- 1829) and The General Bank of India, established 1786 and since defunct. The largest bank, and the oldest still in existence, is the State Bank of India, which originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became the Bank of Bengal. This was one of the three presidency banks, the other two being the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of Madras, all three of which were established under charters from the British East India Company. The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India's independence, became the State Bank of India in 1955. The Government of India issued an ordinance and nationalised the 14 largest commercial banks in 1969...

...companies have been doing to help this issue is allowing employees to work from home so the person can balance their work and stress. The employees don’t like to be transferred to one company to another and they should look for other options. France Telecom is one company that is being investigated for suicide and analyzing what happened to hopefully prevent this in the future. 1. What is your reaction to the situation? What factors, both inside and externally contributed to the situation? I think that no matter how much stress you can be going through taking your life is just the easy choice, the easy way out. Instead, one should work hard and keep up never giving up. Some factors that contributed to this is that the employees were not being listened to when they expressed their problems. Several occasions the worker wrote and was not replied. The worker was also being transferred from one place to another involuntarily. Some external factors that contributed was the morale of the employee was down and they were going through some kind of trauma or suffering. 2. What appeared to be happening in France Telecom’s workplace? What stress symptoms might managers have looked for to alert the problem? In France Telecom employees were not being heard. The employees were being psychologically harassed. The company what not addressing the situation and saw like a fad among the workplace. The employers were pressured because of the fear of losing their...

...they certainly make for an appealing and persuasive advert. However, there also tends to be some shortcomings and/or limitations on any given advert; and probably an angle which would have perhaps provided a better perspective to the targeted public. This essay is therefore aimed at critiquing and analyzing the Warid Telecom TV advert for their campaign to register onto the Warid Pesa mobile money transfer platform. In the said advert, a cross section of different publics is presented - a student calls her dad; a guy calls his friend; a stranded young man calls another and a business man calls on another person – and all of them are saying “Please send me money right now!” The situation presented in the TV Ad depicts distressed characters who urgently require a service (money to be sent to them) which the advertiser purports to provide with as less stress as possible (of course in comparison to the competitors on the market). But this is in the punch line at the climax of the advert where WARID promotes their Mobile Money platform branded Warid Pesa as the only such service on the market where a customer neither needs to be currently subscribed on the Warid Telecom network nor have to wait before approval of their registration. The advert cleverly, yet subtly paints the comparative analysis between Warid Pesa and MTN’s Mobile Money by highlighting the fact that for other service providers, one would require to be a subscriber to the respective telephone network, fill registration...

...Privatization of Telecoms in Asia John Ure and Araya Vivorakij* Privatization viewed as a panacea for the most pressing problems besetting the modernization and development of telecommunications has become, in recent years, a widely accepted part of orthodox thinking. Wellenius, Stern, Nulty and Stern (1989) illustrate the point. ‘How should privatization be defined?’ asks the International Finance Corporation (IFC, 1995). ‘A generous stance would admit any transfer of ownership or control from public to private sector. A more exacting definition would require that the transfer be enough to give the private operators substantive independent power.’ 1 Hence, by privatization is usually meant the transfer of state-owned assets to private sector ownership, management and control typified by the sale of part or all of the shares of a state owned (and operated) telecommunications enterprise (SOTE). We shall argue that the ‘more exacting definition’ is exactly appropriate for the experience of Western economies from which it originates - see below - while it is too narrow, too precise, insufficiently ‘generous’ to capture the less clearly defined lines of demarcation between public and private capital in the context of Asian telecommunications. We shall argue that this is because the delineation between state (political society) and civil society is less well developed in Asia, certainly less well articulated in law, and unevenly developed even within single large Asian countries...
