Hi List, Another good move which we are able to see due to RBI and IBA guidelines. Banking Codes And Standards Board of India which lays down the voluntary codes adopted by banks, in its 2014 version of Code of Bank's Commitments to Customers have included a section on senior citizens and differently abled.
The 2 most important clauses one borrowed from RBI circular of course are: x. We will ensure that all the banking facilities such as cheque book facility, ATM facility, Net banking facility, locker facility, retail loans, credit cards etc., are invariably offered to the visually challenged without any discrimination. xi. We will render all possible assistance to the visually challenged for availing various banking facilities. All these efforts have insured that at least the basic banking services are not denied to visually impaired. Although in terms of the credit facilities such as Credit Card, Loans, and some others we still need to do a lot. Regards, -- Amar Jain.
