 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.
