प्रश्न

Write explanatory notes or answer the following. 

Explain the primary functions of Commercial bank. 

उत्तर

The following are some of the primary functions performed by commercial banks:
i. Acceptance of Deposits- Accepting deposits from the general public is the basic function of a commercial bank. There are various kinds of public deposits such as fixed account deposit, savings account deposit and current account deposits through which the commercial banks deposit the money from the public.
ii. Discounting Bills of Exchange- The commercial banks provide financial assistance to the business community by discounting bills of exchange. A bill of exchange is a document that acknowledges the amount of money that is owed by the debtors as against the goods and services received by him. The banks purchase these bills produced by the customers (after deducting interest on the face-value of the bill). In this sense, by purchasing the bills they provide easy means of finance to the business community as and when required.
iii. Credit Creation- The commercial banks create credit in the economy through demand deposits. Credit creation paves the path for the growth of the economy.
iv. Investment of Funds- Apart from granting loans and advances, the banks also invest their surplus funds in securities. Investment in the securities helps the commercial banks to meet their future requirement of funds. The banks can borrow from the RBI against such securities. Also, if required the banks can sell their securities in the open market to meet their requirement of funds.

Read the following hypothetical case study carefully and answer the questions follow on the basis of the same.

Agricultural Developmental Bank of Pakistan uses the production function approach for measuring bank outputs and costs. A translog cost function is estimated to provide an assessment of the bank's scale and scope efficiency, and to quantify the extent to which its production costs are sensitive to the size and output mix. Results show that the bank enjoys both overall and product-specific economies of scale and, therefore, there exists scope for the bank to expand its operations at a declining average cost. Even though bank branches in all size categories enjoy economies of scale, the extent of such economies is larger for branches operating at a smaller scale of production. This implies that as the bank branches grow larger in size in terms of both loan and deposit accounts, they move closer to attaining increasing returns to a factor. It is also shown that the marginal costs of servicing both loan and deposit accounts decline as bank branches grow larger in size in terms of either the number of loans or the number of deposits. This confirms that branches operating at a larger scale of production have attained greater cost-efficiency in terms of servicing the loan and deposit accounts.

The increasing returns to scale in larger branches is due to ______
