The parent company was later merged into ICICI Bank. ICICI Bank launched internet banking operations in 1998. ICICI's shareholding in ICICI Bank was reduced to 46 percent, through a public offering of shares in India in 1998, followed by an equity offering in the form of American Depositary Receipts on the NYSE in 2000. ICICI Bank acquired the Bank of Madura Limited in an all-stock deal in 2001, and sold additional stakes to institutional investors during 2001-02. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only project finance to a diversified financial services group, offering a wide variety of products and services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank.

In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. In 2008, following the 2008 financial crisis, customers rushed to ATM's and branches in some locations due to rumors of adverse financial position of ICICI Bank. The Reserve Bank of India issued a clarification on the financial strength of ICICI Bank to dispel the rumors.

CRM is an acronym for Customer Relationship Management. Its a set of strategies, processes, metrics, organizational culture and technology solutions that enhance an organization's ability to see the differences in its present & prospective customers, track new opportunities to better serve customers and act, instantly and profitably, on those differences and opportunities. Recently CRM has taken a center stage in the business world with businesses concentrating on saving money and increasing profits by redefining internal processes and procedures. It costs a company dramatically less to retain and grow an existing client, than it does to court new ones. The aim of CRM is to optimize the use of technology and human resources.

IMPLEMENTING CRM AT ICICI BANK

Implimenting the CRM at ICICI Bank


The key to implementing CRM was in understanding organization and customers in a better way. There are five interrelated areas that were taken care of before implementing CRM: - Business Focus - Organizational Structure - Business Metrics - Marketing Focus and Technology

Business Focus: There are various components of CRM like customer information, sales,
marketing trends and marketing efficacy that acted in tandem to improve relationship between ICICI and its consumers. ICICI captured customer data and analyzed them while dealing with customers at these very touch points. A CRM solution from Siebel was implemented for the automation of customer handling in all key retail products of the Group. The solution allows customer service agents to track all customer complaints and requests. It also allows target setting and centralized tracking of turnaround times for request fulfillment. The solution went live in phases during fiscal 2002. The Bank has also undertaken a retail data warehouse initiative to achieve customer integration at the back-office. This central view of the total customer relationship is being used extensively for identifying opportunities to cross-sell new products and services to the existing customer base.

Technology Focus: ICICI Bank continues to leverage ICT2 as a strategic tool for its business
operations to gain competitive advantage. Its technology strategy emphasizes enhanced level of customer services through 24x7 availability, multi-channel banking and straight through processing, and cost efficiency through optimal use of electronic channels, wider and focused market reach and opportunities for cross-selling. The Technology Management Group (TMG) is the focal point for the ICICI Groups technology strategy and Group-wide technology initiatives. This group reports directly to the Managing Director & CEO.

A key to ICICIs success has been its ability to harness business information to CRM initiatives that have fueled growth and helped attract more than 30 million customers. The foundation for ICICI Banks wide-ranging CRM programs is a Sybase IQ-based data warehouse. Developers had used a combination of PL/SQL and BTEQ scripting, a proprietary technology specific to the data warehouse, for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). With its growing customer base, IT administrators recognized that the bank needed a more powerful, sophisticated data integration system to help ensure the warehouse lived up to its potential as an analytic CRM engine that delivered tangible bottom-line results. To step up to the next level of data integration, ICICI Bank officials agreed with a recommendation from Teradatas professional services division, which provided systems integration support for the data warehouse, to implement the Informatica PowerCenter enterprise data integration platform. (The Bank initially used Teradata as its data warehouse platform and migrated to Sybase IQ a year ago.) ICICI Bank deployed PowerCenter in 2003 as it embarked on the next phase of its warehouse, which would add data from five new sources, in addition to the initial three sources of retail banking, credit cards, and securities information. The next step in the CRM implementation process was gap analysis which essentially is assessing different loopholes in: - Marketing, sales and service practices - Collection, capture, processing and deployment of customer information - Distribution and operations effectiveness at customer touch points.
