Abstract: In the late 1990s, to exploit the synergies brought by universal banking, major banks in Europe and America merged to form leading banks in the world. The trend of consolidation hit even the Indian markets. In 2002, Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India Ltd (ICICI), one of the leading development financial institutions in India, reverse merged with its subsidiary ICICI Bank, to become the second largest bank in India. However, Housing Development and Finance Corporation (HDFC), India's leading housing finance company in terms of deposits and loan disbursements, positioned itself as a group of companies with each subsidiary offering specialised products. It focused on generating synergies of universal banking by cross-selling its products across its subsidiaries without actually merging into a single entity. |
