...with a banker or from whom a bank has agreed to collect items and includes a bank carrying an account with another bank’.The statutory protection under section 131 and 131A of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, is available to a collecting banker only if the banker inter alia receives payment of a cheque or a draft for a customer. Though a customer is a very important person for a bank, he appears only once in law of Negotiable Instrument (i.e., in section 131 of the Negotiable Instruments Act) and even there only casually; he is neither defined nor explained. A customer of a banker need not necessarily be a person. A firm, joint stock Company, a society or any separate legal entity may be a customer. According to section 45-Z of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, “Customer” includes a government department and a corporation incorporated by or under any law.2 Special types of customer means are those who are distinguished from other types of ordinary customers by some special features. Hence, they are called special types of customers. They are to be dealt with carefully while operating and opening the accounts. The following are some examples of special types of customers: 1.

He terminated the fed government sponsored US Bank, and resolved the conflict. * The fed government basically stayed out of the banking business until the ’30s, when FDR took office, and the fed government intervened deeply into the ‘banking business,’ which was defined by the IRS, FDIC, Comptroller of the Currency, SEC (if public-owned), and State Bank Supervisors etc. * By defining what the ‘business of banking’s was the statutes, regulations, and enforcement personnel administering these laws, bankers were boxed into doing business as defined by state and federal governments. * Still In present day Banks are financial institutions that hold too much control over the economy and if they fail there are enormous consequences hence the need for government bailouts, in which government financial assistance is provided to banks or other financial institutions who appear to be on the brink of collapse.

This paper will search and comment on why performance of similar institutions can be result of management decisions. Lastly, we will attempt to identify those trends and comment to alternate decision making that could have had different results. A quick preview over the last 10 years indicates our nation has witnessed a tremendous increase in failed banks. As with the Great Depression of 1930, the 2008 demise caught even seasoned professionals by surprise! They seemed like smart, financial leaders who were well educated and fully integrated into the heartbeat of the banking system… boy were they wrong… Banks as old as 100 years, fell within months! Although the pace has slowed, they still are failing at levels that can decimate local economies. In 2005 and 2006 there were no bank failures in USA! Was it power bases that gave a false sense of security? Was it poor management? Was it more? THE CULTURE OF CIRCLE BANK With...

...can analyze a customer’s deposit account, see that his salary deposit has increased, and send a note congratulating the customer on his or her promotion together with an offer of a premium card and a higher credit limit. What business are banks in if they are not in the banking business? Put simply, retail banks are in the business of helping people, communities and enterprises achieve their financial goals. The public’s trust in banks as British institutions has plummeted over the last generation, with public opinion polls charting a sharp drop in respect for the banking industry since 2008’s financial crisis. This disengagement and erosion of trust has been exacerbated by a diminishing need for customers to visit branches and engage with bank staff directly as the use of online banking has increased. A PWC survey looking at banking in 2020 indicates a growing awareness, but a significant gap in preparedness. Sixty-one percent of bank executives say that a customer-centric business model is ‘very important’, and 75% of banks are making investments in this area (this pattern is consistent globally). Yet only 17% feel ‘very prepared’. What business are banks in if they are not in the banking business? Put simply, retail banks are in the business of helping people, communities and enterprises achieve their financial goals. In that sense, we could consider PayPal as a form of retail bank; its famous digital wallet now counts 110 million active users among which...

...Bottom of Form Email Sent! You have successfully emailed the post. Green Banking For Small Businesses Tim Chen, NerdWallet | Sep. 6, 2011, 9:07 PM | 635 | In an increasingly eco-conscious market, many small businesses are finding creative ways to go green. Whether it’s improving their energy efficiency, buying organic products, composting or just turning off electronics at night, being green means all sorts of things to different people. One small thing you may not have considered is green banking. Most banks have at least one green initiative in place (or claim to), and a few have made the extra effort to distinguish themselves as green businesses. But what does “green banking” mean exactly? Depending on whom you ask, it’s a marketing term, a social philosophy, an investment strategy, and everything in between. However, if you’re an entrepreneur, you probably want to know if it makes sense on a business level. The answer is yes! You’ll save money, you’ll help the planet, and if you’re already running a green business, it’s a great next step. That said, if you’re serious about getting a greener banking experience, you’re going to have to look at facts, not fluff. What is your bank really doing to be more environmentally friendly? Have they cut back on their paper and energy use? Do they invest in sustainable or green businesses? Do they give back to the local community in any way, or give money to charity? You don’t need to do that much digging to get some...
