Impact of IT in banking sector In general, existing studies have concluded two positive

effects regarding the relation between IT and banks’ performance.

1. IT can reduce banks’ operational costs For example, internet helps banks to conduct standardized, low value-added transactions (e.g. bill payments, balance inquiries, account transfer) through the online channel, while focusing their resources into specialized, high-value added transactions (e.g. small business lending, personal trust services, investment banking) through branches.

2. IT can facilitate transactions among customers within the same network (e.g. automated teller machines (ATMs) by banks)

Impact of IT in banking sector On-Line Return Filing System-which as a sub-set of the CDBMS, will act as

a one stop shop for banks to submit all the regulatory returns. This system which has commenced in a small way is being expanded to cover all the returns furnished by commercial banks to the Reserve Bank.

On-line Complaint Tracking System-The software, developed at the request of the Ministry of Finance, enables the office of the Banking Ombudsmen to track disposal of complaints; access is also available to the Rural Planning and Credit Department (RPCD) and the Ministry of Finance for monitoring the position on a real time basis

Enterprise Wide Knowledge Management System (EKMS)- which would provide organic linkages across various sets of information available across different functional units of the Reserve Bank which could be used for better analysis and obtaining a holistic picture across different segments of the markets

Warehouse of the Reserve Bank, by providing for access to general users as well, and accessible through the Internet, called the CDBMS.

The IDRBT physically hosts the Secured Web Site of the Reserve Bank which enable users to have electronic access to the Reserve Bank’s offerings using the Internet

Multi Protocol Layer Switching (MPLS)-technology for the INFINET so as to take advantage of lesser costs and widely available technologies has begun at IDRBT which would usher in more benefits to users

Structured Financial Messaging System (SFMS)-which is akin to S.W.I.F.T. for exchange of financial messages across member banks has become the widely used inter-bank messaging system.

Impact of technology in stock market

There has been a migration from a Screen based trading system for Government Securities to an Order Matching System so as to result in better price discovery and more transparency in the market related transactions in Government securities

Ultimately, it will give them the ability to compete with the larger corporations. It is also predicted that information technology based companies will drive growth in the Stock Market.

Information technology enhances investor growth. The Internet has created global availability of information. “Although there are the ‘Have’s and the Have Not’s’ regarding technology and technical know how, the Internet and the World Wide Web, the global open market and pop culture, and the Information Age economy is quickly spreading throughout the world.”

Pilot projects entailing the use of Multi Application Smart cards have not only yielded satisfactory results; their usage for Financial Inclusion has opened up new vistas for their wide spread use across the country

Disadvantage:

Distorted facts are possible with such a plethora of information. Investors looking for information may find the wrong information or information that has been cooked, changed, or distorted in the corporations’ favor.

Also, the more information there is out there, the harder it is to find the information you need because you have to trudge through all the excessive information
