‘Paperless banking': Vizag to be SBI's model district Staff Reporter Share · print · T+ The State Bank of India has identified Visakhapatnam for making it the first model district in the country to introduce ‘paperless banking.'
The bank is holding consultations with the government to bring all transactions including that of the District Treasury under the purview of the new initiative, General Manager, Local Head Office, SBI, Hyderabad, T.S. Krishnaswamy has said. He was here on Monday to open three more braches of the bank and to launch a series of new initiatives of the bank's Super Circle of Excellence (SCE) Region. Addressing a press conference, he said the bank had undertaken the initiative as it was the lead bank in the district. A customer of any bank in the district could perform all their transactions, including, fund transfers electronically. It could take about eight months for the launch of the new initiative. Elaborating on the SCE Region, he said Visakhapatnam was the first non-capital city to get the facility. Any customer could open an account in SCE branches, which would be manned by ‘hand-picked' staff. -- Dr. Ghanshyam H. Asudani, Asstt.
