DATA ANALYSIS - Part I (SECONDARY DATA)
Nationalized banks have become a helping hand to the students who
wish to pursue higher education for gaining a competitive edge in their
careers. Since education is becoming costlier by the day and footing
the college or university fees is a strain on the lower and middle-class
pockets, banks have become more supportive in extending loans to
them. The educational loan scheme launched by Reserve Bank of
India in 2000-2001 provides financial assistance to students seeking
admission to professional colleges to pursue higher education for
graduate/post-graduate courses. As per Indian Bank's Association
(IBA) recommendations, the Model Educational Loan Scheme was
announced in Union Budget for 2001-2002. Accordingly, all 28
nationalized banks were advised to implement the scheme. In 2004-
2005, the educational loan scheme was reviewed by the Working
Group of General Managers from few select banks constituted by IBA.
Accordingly, some modifications were made in the educational loan
scheme to facilitate smooth operation at bank branches.
There are 28 nationalized banks in India. Out of these, a sample of
seven banks has been selected as sample for the study. The sample is
selected on the basis of the location of the Head Offices or Regional
Offices of the Banks with in Mumbai region. Thus, importance was
given to the residential location of the Banks. The seven banks

2. Bank of Baroda.
3. Central Bank of India.
4. State Bank of India.
5. Union Bank of India.
6. Bank of India.

The data for all 28 nationalized banks has been collected and tabulated
for analysis and interpretation. The data has also been collected and
tabulated for the sample banks for analysis. The data collection

Results:
Correlation Coefficient 0.99144
X values = Amount outstanding for Priority Sector Advances of all
Nationalized Banks.
Y values = Amount outstanding for Educational Loans of all
Nationalized Banks.
The correlation coefficient between X values and Y values is 0.99144.
Table 3.28 reveals that X values and Y values show a strong positive
correlation. This indicates that if priority sector advances increase, then
educational loans advances also increase correspondingly. Thus,
"Nationalized banks have been playing a very important role in
supporting higher education through educational loans."
24. Testing of Hypotheses:
The Hypotheses stated in the Proposal is as follows:-
"Nationalized banks have been playing a very important role in
supporting higher education through educational loans."
The progress of education loans is available with two samples i.e. all
the Nationalized banks and seven sample banks. Hence, Z test can be
used to test the hypotheses:-

Compound Annual Growth Rate in % for sample banks (as per Table 3.23):-

Central Bank of India 38.9

Union Bank of India 31.8
State Bank of India 3.7
Total 204.4
Average 29.2
Similarly, compound annual growth rate in % for 28 Banks is 31.1
(as per Table 3.7)
• Ho = Nationalized banks have been playing a very important role in
supporting higher education through educational loans.
H1 = Nationalized banks have not been playing a very important
role in supporting higher education through educational loans.
Let p s = Growth rate of Educational Loans in case of Sample banks.
P N = Growth rate of Educational Loans in case of all Nationalized
banks.

The calculated value -0.0985 is lower than the table value of 1.96. As
Ho is two sided in the given question, a two tailed test can be applied
for determining the acceptance regions at 5% level of significance
which comes to as under:-
z ~ 1.96
The observed value of Z is -0.0985 which is in the acceptance region.
Hence Ho is accepted and it can be concluded that "Nationalized banks
have been playing very important role in supporting higher education
through educational loans."
