Evolution of Banking (Origin and development of Banking)

The evolution of banking can be traced back to the early times of human history. The history of banking begins with the first prototype banks of merchants of the ancient world, which made grain loans to farmers and traders who carried goods between cities. This began around 2000 BC in Assyria and Babylonia. In olden times people deposited their money and valuables at temples, as they are the safest place available at that time. The practice of storing precious metals at safe places and loaning money was prevalent in ancient Rome.

However modern Banking is of recent origin. The development of banking from the traditional lines to the modern structure passes through Merchant bankers, Goldsmiths, Money lenders and Private banks. Merchant Bankers were originally traders in goods. Gradually they started to finance trade and then become bankers. Goldsmiths are considered as the men of honesty, integrity and reliability. They provided strong iron safe for keeping valuables and money. They issued deposit receipts (Promissory notes) to people when they deposit money and valuables with them. The goldsmith paid interest on these deposits. Apart from accepting deposits, Goldsmiths began to lend a part of money deposited with them. Then they became bankers who perform both the basic banking functions such as accepting deposit and lending money. Money lenders were gradually replaced by private banks. Private banks were established in a more organised manner. The growth of Joint stock commercial banking was started only after the enactment of Banking Act 1833 in England.

Evolution and Growth of banking in India

India has a long history of financial intermediation. The first bank in India to be set up on modern lines was in 1770 by a British Agency House. The earliest but short-lived attempt to establish a central bank was in 1773. India was also a forerunner in terms of development of financial markets. In the beginning of 18th century, British East India Company launched a few commercial banks. Bank of Hindustan(1770) was the first Indian bank established in India. Later on, the East India Company started three presidency banks, Bank of Bengal(1806), Bank of Bombay(1840) and Bank of Madras(1843) These bank were given the right to issue notes in their respective regions. Allahabad bank was established in 1865 and Alliance Bank in 1875. The first bank of limited liability managed by Indians was Oudh Commercial Bank founded in 1881. Subsequently, the Punjab National Bank was established in 1894. In the Beginning of the 20th century, Swadeshi movement encouraged Indian entrepreneurs to start many new banks in India. Another landmark in the history of Indian banking was the formation of Imperial bank of India in 1921 by amalgamating 3 presidency banks It is the Imperial Bank which performed some central banking functions in India. A number of banks failed during the first half of the 20th Century. It affected the people's belief and faith in Banks.
