DEPOSIT SCHEMES

Page 7: Deposit schemes

INTRODUCTION

A deposit scheme is an account at a banking institution that allows money to

be held on behalf of the account holder. Some banks charge a fee for this

service, while others may pay the client interest on the funds deposited. The

account holder retains rights to their deposit, although restrictions placed on

access depend upon the terms and conditions of the account and the

provider. The banking terms "deposit" and "withdrawal" actually tend to

obscure the economic substance and legal essence of transactions in a

deposit account. From a legal and financial accounting standpoint -- and as

counter-intuitive as it may seem -- the term deposit is actually used by the

banking industry in financial statements to describe the liability owed by the

bank to its depositor, and not the funds (whether cash or cheques)

themselves, which are shown an asset of the bank

Typically, an account provider will not hold the entire sum in reserve, but

will loan the money out at interest to other clients, in a process known as

fractional-reserve banking. It is this process it allows providers to pay out

interest on deposits. By transferring the ownership of deposits from one

party to another, they can replace physical cash as a method of payment.

In fact, deposits account for most of the "money supply in use today. From

an economic standpoint, the bank has essentially created "economic money".

There are various ways in which bank deposits arise. Customers may deposit

actual cash or they may deposit rights to receive cash; these rights to receive

cash may be in the form of a cheque, a bill, a promissory note owing to

them, etc. deposits may also arise out of loans granted by the bank or

through the process of discounting customer’s bills. In this case, they are

known as created deposits. In actual practice, the amount of such deposits is

Page 8: Deposit schemes

much larger than that of the deposits received in hard cash or in the form of

rights to receive cash. Typically, an account provider will not hold the entire

sum in reserve, but will loan the money out at interest to other client and it is

the process which allows providers to pay out interest on deposits. So it is

said “Loans are the children of deposits and deposits are the children of

loans”.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS

Page 9: Deposit schemes

DEMAND DEPOSIT

CURRENT ACCOUNT DEPOSIT: Current account or cheque account is

a deposit account held at a bank or other financial institution, for the purpose

of securely and quickly providing frequent access to funds on demand,

through a variety of different channels. Because money is available on

demand these accounts are also referred to as demand accounts or demand

deposit accounts.

Current account is the name given to a transactional account in the UK and

countries with a UK banking heritage offering various flexible payment

methods to allow customers to distribute money directly to others. Most

current accounts have a cheque book and offer the facility to arrange

standing orders, direct debits and payment via a debit card. Current accounts

may also allow borrowing via an overdraft facility. Current account

providers include banks, building societies and credit unions.

FEATURES AND ACCESS

All transactional accounts offer itemized lists of all financial transactions,

either through a bank statement or a passbook. A transactional account

allows the account holder to make or receive payments by:

Cash money (banknotes)

Cheque and money order (paper promise to pay)

Direct debit (pre-authorized debit)

Standing order (automatic funds transfer)

ATM card or debit card (cashless direct payment at a store or merchant)

SWIFT - International account to account transfer.

Page 10: Deposit schemes

SAVINGS DEPOSIT: Savings accounts are accounts maintained by

commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, and mutual

savings banks that pay interest but can not be used directly as money. These

accounts let customers set aside a portion of their liquid assets that could be

used to make purchases while earning a monetary return.

FEATURES

Obtaining funds held in a savings account may not be as convenient as from

a demand account. For example, one may need to visit an ATM or bank

branch, instead of writing a cheque or using a debit card. However, this

transference is easy enough that savings accounts are often termed near

money.

Some savings accounts require funds to be kept on deposit for a minimum

length of time, but most permit unlimited access to funds. True savings

accounts do not offer cheque-writing privileges, although many institutions

will call their higher-interest demand accounts or money market accounts

"savings accounts."

All savings accounts offer itemized lists of all financial transactions,

traditionally through a passbook, but also through a bank statement.

TIME DEPOSIT

FIXED DEPOSITS: A time deposit (also known as a term deposit,

particularly in Canada, Australia and New Zealand is a money deposit at a

Page 11: Deposit schemes

banking institution that cannot be withdrawn for a certain "term" or period

of time. When the term is over it can be withdrawn or it can be held for

another term. Generally speaking, the longer the term the better the yield on

the money. A certificate of deposit is a time-deposit product.

RECURRING DEPOSITS: The term recurring deposit means the

customer means the customer can open an account and deposit a certain sum

of money every month. After a certain period of time, say 1 years, or 3 years

and 5 years, the accumulated amount amount along with interest is paid to

the customer. It is helpful to the middle and poor sections of the people. The

interest paid on such deposits is on cumulative basis.

OTHER TERMS USED IN BANKING

BRANCH BANKING

This refers to the practice of maintaining physical locations where customers

can receive a wide array of banking and financial services, such locations are

described as branches. They may provide access to a combination of cash

machines, telephone banking, counter services and financial advice

CASH MACHINES

Cash machines are electronic devices that allow bank customers to make

cash withdrawals and check their account balances without the need for a

human teller. Many also allow people to deposit cash or cheques, transfer

money between their bank accounts, top up their mobile phones' pre-paid

accounts or even buy postage stamps.

INTERNET BANKING

Page 12: Deposit schemes

Internet or Online banking describes the use of a bank's secure website to

view balances and statements, perform transactions and payments, and

various other facilities. This can be very useful, especially for banking

outside bank hours and banking from anywhere where internet access is

available. Since the internet revolution most retail banking institutions offer

access to current accounts via online banking.

TELEPHONE BANKING

Telephone banking is the term applied to specific provision of banking

services over the telephone. In many cases such calls are to a call centre or

automated service, although some institutions continue to answer such calls

in their branches. Often call centre opening times are considerably longer

than branches, and some firms provide these services on a 24 hour basis.

OVERDRAFTS

An overdraft occurs when withdrawals from a bank account exceed the

available balance. This gives the account a negative balance and in effect

means the account provider is providing credit. If there is a prior agreement

with the account provider for an overdraft facility, and the amount

overdrawn is within this authorized overdraft, then interest is normally

charged at the agreed rate. If the balance exceeds the agreed facility then

fees may be charged and a higher interest rate might apply.

GUIDELINES OF RESERVE BANK OF INDIA

One of the important functions of the Bank is to accept deposits for the

purpose of lending. In fact, depositors are the major stakeholders of the

Banking System. With liberalization in the financial system and deregulation

Page 13: Deposit schemes

of interest rates, banks are now free to formulate deposit products within the

broad guidelines issued by RBI:

Guidelines on "Know Your Customer" norms and "Cash

transactions":

1. As part of ‘Know Your Customer’ (KYC) principle, RBI has issued

several guidelines relating to identification of depositors and advised the

banks to put in place systems and procedures to help control financial frauds,

identify money laundering and suspicious activities, and for

scrutiny/monitoring of large value cash transactions. Instructions have also

been issued by the RBI from time to time advising banks to be vigilant while

opening accounts for new customers to prevent misuse of the banking

system for perpetration of frauds. A gist of the past circulars issued on the

subjects under reference is listed in the Annexure. Taking into account

recent developments, both domestic and international, it has been decided to

reiterate and consolidate the extant instructions on KYC norms and cash

transactions. The following guidelines reinforce our earlier instructions on

the subject with a view to safeguarding banks from being unwittingly used

for the transfer or deposit of funds derived from criminal activity (both in

respect of deposit and borrowal accounts), or for financing of terrorism. The

guidelines are also applicable to foreign currency accounts/transactions.

2. "Know Your Customer" (KYC) guidelines for New accounts

The following KYC guidelines will be applicable to all new accounts with

immediate effect.

2.1 KYC Policy

Page 14: Deposit schemes

(i) "Know Your Customer" (KYC) procedure should be the key principle for

identification of an individual/corporate opening an account. The customer

identification should entail verification through an introductory reference

from an existing account holder/a person known to the bank or on the basis

of documents provided by the customer.

(ii) The Board of Directors of the banks should have in place adequate

policies that establish procedures to verify the bonafide identification of

individual/corporate opening an account. The Board should also have in

place policies that establish processes and procedures to monitor

transactions of suspicious nature in accounts and have systems of conducting

due diligence and reporting of such transactions.

2.2 Customer identification

(i) The objectives of the KYC framework should be two fold, (i) to ensure

appropriate customer identification and (ii) to monitor transactions of a

suspicious nature. Banks should obtain all information necessary to establish

the identity/legal existence of each new customer, based preferably on

disclosures by customers themselves. Typically easy means of establishing

identity would be documents such as passport, driving license etc. However

where such documents are not available, verification by existing account

holders or introduction by a person known to the bank may suffice. It should

be ensured that the procedure adopted does not lead to denial of access to the

general public for banking services.

3. "Know Your Customer" procedures for existing customers

Banks are expected to have adopted due diligence and appropriate KYC

norms at the time of opening of accounts in respect of existing customers in

terms of our extant instructions referred to in the Annexure. However, in

Page 15: Deposit schemes

case of any omission, the requisite KYC procedures for customer

identification should be got completed at the earliest.

4. Ceiling and monitoring of cash transactions

The extent RBI guidelines on the subject are as under:

(i) Banks are required to issue travellers cheques, demand drafts, mail

transfers, and telegraphic transfers for Rs.50,000 and above only by debit to

customers’ accounts or against cheques and not against cash. Further, the

applicants (whether customers or not) for the above transactions for amount

exceeding Rs.10, 000 should affix permanent (Income tax) account number

on the applications. Since KYC is now expected to establish the identity of

the customer and as the issue of demand draft etc. for Rs.50,000 and above

is by debit to account, the requirement for furnishing PAN stands increased

uniformly to Rs.50,000/-.

(ii) The banks are required to keep a close watch of cash withdrawals and

deposits for Rs.10 lakhs and above in deposit, cash credit or overdraft

accounts and keep record of details of these large cash transactions in a

separate register.

(iii) Branches of banks are required to report all cash deposits and

withdrawals of Rs.10 lakhs and above as well as transactions of suspicious

nature with full details in fortnightly statements to their controlling offices.

Besides, controlling offices are also required to appraise their Head offices

regarding transactions of suspicious nature. Early computerization of branch

reporting will facilitate prompt generation of such reports.

5. Risk management and monitoring procedures

Page 16: Deposit schemes

In order to check possible abuse of banking channels for illegal and anti-

national activities, the Board should clearly lay down a policy for adherence

to the above requirements comprising the following:

5.1 Internal Control Systems

Duties and responsibilities should be explicitly allocated for ensuring that

policies and procedures are managed effectively and that there is full

commitment and compliance to an effective KYC programmed in respect of

both existing and prospective deposit accounts. Controlling offices of banks

should periodically monitor strict adherence to the laid down policies and

procedures by the officials at the branch level.

5.2 Terrorism Finance

RBI has been circulating lists of terrorist entities notified by the Government

of India to banks so that banks may exercise caution if any transaction is

detected with such entities. There should be a system at the branch level to

ensure that such lists are consulted in order to determine whether a

person/organization involved in a prospective or existing business

relationship appears on such a list. The authority to whom banks may report

accounts suspected to belong to terrorist entities will be advised in

consultation with Government.

5.3 Internal Audit / Inspection

(i) An independent evaluation of the controls for identifying high value

transactions should be carried out on a regular basis by the internal audit

function in the banks.

(ii) Concurrent/internal auditors must specifically scrutinize and comment

on the effectiveness of the measures taken by branches in adoption of KYC

norms and steps towards prevention of money laundering.

5.4 Identification and Reporting of Suspicious Transactions

Page 17: Deposit schemes

Banks should ensure that the branches and controlling offices report

transactions of suspicious nature to the appropriate law enforcement

authorities designated under the relevant laws governing such activities.

There should be well laid down systems for freezing of accounts as directed

by such authority and reporting thereof to the controlling office and head

office. Being matters of sensitive nature, there must be a quarterly reporting

of such aspects to the audit committee of the board or the board of directors.

5.5 Adherence to Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA), 1976

(i) Banks should also adhere to the instructions on the provisions of the

Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 1976 cautioning them to open

accounts or collect cheques only in favour of association which are

registered under the Act ibid by Government of India. A certificate to the

effect that the association is registered with the Government of India should

be obtained from the concerned associations at the time of opening of the

account or collection of cheques.

(ii) Branches of the banks should be advised to exercise due care to ensure

compliance and desist from opening accounts in the name of banned

organizations and those without requisite registration.

6. Record Keeping

Financial intermediaries should prepare and maintain documentation on their

customer relationships and transactions to meet the requirements of relevant

laws and regulations, to enable any transaction effected through them to be

reconstructed. In the case of wire transfer transactions, the records of

electronic payments and messages must be treated in the same way as other

records in support of entries in the account. All financial transactions records

should be retained for at least five years after the transaction has taken place

Page 18: Deposit schemes

and should be available for perusal and scrutiny of audit functionaries as

well as regulators as and when required.

7. Training of staff and management

It is crucial that all the operating and management staff fully understand the

need for strict adherence to KYC norms. All institutions must, therefore,

have an ongoing training programme so that staffs are adequately trained for

their roles and responsibilities as appropriate to their hierarchical level in

complying with anti-money laundering guidelines and for implementing

KYC policies consistently.

8. These guidelines are issued under Section 35 (A) of the Banking

Regulation Act, 1949 and any contravention of the same will attract

penalties under the relevant provisions of the Act. Banks are advised to bring

the guidelines to the notice of their branches and controlling offices.

9. The steps initiated in compliance with the various guidelines contained in

the circular may be advised to The Chief General Manager, Anti Money

Laundering Cell, Department of Banking Operations & Development,

Reserve Bank of India, Central Office, Centre 1, World Trade Centre, Cuffe

Parade, Mumbai 400 005 within a month from the date of receipt of this

circular. The implementation of the instructions contained in the circular will

be reviewed by RBI in a meeting with bankers after a period of six months

and issuance of a Master Circular will be considered thereafter.

10. Please acknowledge receipt.

DEPOSITORS' RIGHTS

Deposits being the basic financial raw materials, depositors form the core for

banking business. There is now an awakening on depositors' rights, rightly

so, in the banks, as it is fulfillment of such rights which can enable an

effective resource management mechanism in Banks. Further, the depositor,
