STRATEGY OF AXIS BANK

It look a good mix of some common sense, some keen observation of the world
around and some analytics led number crunching, to crack the code. The
marketing team thus managed to identify the space, as yet, largely unoccupied
by any of the bank cards in a wholesome manner, and one that binds a large
part of this countrymovies.

The process of brand-change started around 2007 when the UTI changed it’s
name to axis bank-largely necessitated, owing to the fact that it had permission
to use the UTI name only till early 2008. It provided a blessing in disguise and
in a way, led to the birth of the fledgling Axis bank.

The Indian economy would be impacted by Covid-19 pandemic with
contraction in industrial and services output across small and large businesses.
The Bank’s business is expected to be impacted by lower lending opportunities
and revenues in the short to medium term. The impact of the Covid-19
pandemic on Bank’s results, including credit quality and provisions, remains
uncertain and dependent on the spread of Covid-19, further steps taken by the
government and the central bank to mitigate the economic impact, steps taken
by the Bank and the time it takes for economic activities to resume at normal
levels. The Bank’s capital and liquidity position is strong and would continue
to be the focus area for the Bank during this period.
