According to RBI guidelines, SBI has introduced a positive pay system to give additional protection to customers.
State Bank of India (SBI), the country’s largest bank, warns its customers from time to time to protect them from financial fraud. SBI has more than 49 crore customers and in such a situation it is a big responsibility for the bank to keep the transactions safe. The Reserve Bank also continues to issue guidelines to banks for the protection of customers. In this episode, SBI is providing an additional security feature to its customers on payment through check. In this, the customers fill the details of their issued check online and match it with the check issued by the bank. In this way the chances of fraud are reduced.
