Canara Bank (also known as CanBank) has a network of more than 2,500 branches
throughout India and branches in Hong Kong and London. All of Canara Bank's branches --
including those located in rural areas -- are computerized, in a country where it is not given
that banks can make such a claim. (The bank considers 30% of its branches to be located in
rural areas.) The modernization of all branches allows the bank to offer its customers
networked ATMs, telebanking, internet banking, and debit card services. Other services

1.5 SWOT ANALYSIS
Business firms undertake SWOT analysis to understand the external and internal
environment. SWOT, which is the acronym for Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and
Threats, is also known as WOT-UP Analysis. Through such an analysis strength and
weakness existing within an organization can be matched with the opportunities and threats
operating the environment so that an effective strategy can be formulated. An effective
organization strategy, therefore, is one that is capitalized on the opportunities and through the
use of strengths and neutralizes the threats maximizing the impact of weakness.
