Foreseeing Indian economy back on a high-growth trajectory in the coming months, ICICI Bank [ Get Quote ] is
looking at expanding its fund-generation profile and revenue streams to capitalise on the forthcoming
opportunities.
"Looking ahead, we see favourable prospects for the India [ Images ]n economy. . . India has weathered the
global storm with a high degree of resilience and we expect the Indian economy to return to a robust growth path
ahead of other economies that are experiencing recessionary conditions," ICICI Bank managing director and
chief executive officer Chanda Kochhar [ Images ] has said.
"As we prepare ourselves for the next phase of growth, we will work on further diversifying our funding profile and
revenue streams," Kochhar said in her message to the country's largest private sector bank's shareholders in its
annual report for 2008-09.
Since 2007, as the global and Indian economic environment has changed rapidly, the bank has focused on a
conscious strategy of capital conservation, risk containment and efficiency improvement.
"We have healthy capital adequacy, sound l iquidity and improved cost efficiencies," she added.
The bank's chairman K V Kamath [ Images ] also expressed confidence that 'the Indian economy's robust
fundamentals and domestic growth drivers will impart it the resilience to emerge stronger from this period'.
"I believe the economic recovery, some signs of which are already visible, will gather momentum in the coming
months and in due course see India returning to a high growth trajectory," he noted in his message to
shareholders.
Kamath, who handed over the role of MD and CEO to Kochhar last month, further said, "The last year has been
an exceptionally challenging year for the global economy and financial sector.
"India, while fundamentally in a much stronger position, has also experienced the impact of these events as they
were transmitted through the trade and capital channels."
Kochhar said that the against the backdrop of an imminent recovery in Indian economy, "The ICICI Group sees
before it a wide opportunity spectrum: increasing household incomes and consumption in both rural and urban
India; significant industrial and infrastructure investment potential; and the vast Indian diaspora spanning the
globe.
"We, as a multi specialist financial services group, are well positioned to capitalise on these opportunities. We will
continue to participate in India's growth by meeting the financial services needs of the Indian economy."
The annual report also quoted ICICI Bank's executive director Sonjoy Chatterjee as saying, "Indian economy has
strong fundamentals and will provide robust growth opportunities for industry."
"The Indian corporate sector has demonstrated its ability to withstand the global economic challenges and we will
extend full support to the industry as it reorients strategies in this environment. We will focus on deepening our
client relationships to enhance the diversity and resilience of our revenue streams," Chatterjee said.
Kamath further said that ICICI Bank was able to meet the challenge posed by the developments in global
economy 'due to its strong capital position and the fundamental strengths of its franchise.'

"We have demonstrated our success over a long period of time. In fiscal 1985, we had a networth of Rs 1.75
billion, assets of about Rs 21 billion and profits of Rs 0.36 billion.

"Over the past few years, we have built a strong franchise in the Indian corporate and retail segments, the non-
resident Indian segment, and the wider deposit market in certain countries. . .We believe that the strategy that we
have followed and the franchise that we have built provide a strong foundation for our growth in the years to
come," Kochhar said.
