SBI
The
State Bank of India (SBI) has a sterling legacy of over 200 years, standing
today as the largest financial services conglomerate in India with its
Headquarter in Mumbai. The journey started back in the 19th century when Bank
of Bengal was founded on 2nd June 1806. The Bank of Bengal along with Bank of
Madras and Bank of Bombay was the three Presidency banks until the said banks
were amalgamated into Imperial Bank of India on 27th January 1921.
Subsequently,
on 1st July 1955, the Imperial Bank of India was nationalized and renamed as
the State Bank of India through the State Bank of India Act 1955. Thereafter,
the Government of India in the year 2008 bought stake of Reserve Bank of India
in SBI with the object to remove foreseeable conflicts in the future, RBI being
the banking regulatory authority of the nation.
On
1st April 2017, the five associated banks of SBI namely, State Bank of Bikaner
& Jaipur, State Bank of Hyderabad, State Bank of Mysore, State Bank of
Patiala and State Bank of Travancore and Bharatiya Mahila Bank were merged into
single. This was the first ever large scale consolidation in the chronicle of
the Indian Banking Industry.
Following
the merger, SBI made to the list of 500 fortune global banks with a balance sheet
of Rs 30 Lakh Crore, over 24,000 branch and more than 54,000 ATMs serving over
