Abstract

Every economy's financial system across the globe is sustained by its banking sector. The advent of globalization and liberalization have posed serious threats and opportunities on the financial sector for which the health of the banking industry is of paramount importance. In the Indian context, since the early nineties, banks have strived to meet the ever increasing ends through the financial inclusion agenda, reaching to the remotest areas with a motive of achieving inclusive growth and development. This paper attempts to comparatively analyze the different facets of financial health of the two major banks in the private and public industry. Latest financial information has been incorporated to provide a comprehensive study of SBI and ICICI bank. Mann-Whitney U test has been deployed to relatively test the different aspects of soundness and also verify the adoption of the extant guidelines issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the RBI.
