"Welcome to the India of today". India has made remarkable progress during the last 60 years and continues to be one of the fastest growing economies in the world. You are therefore privileged to be starting your career in an economy that is well placed to deliver numerous growth opportunities.
What differentiates us from the rest of the world is that the high growth in the last decade has been primarily led by our human resources and knowledge capital. Our domestic markets, demographic advantage, large and skilled working population, high savings rate and continued investments in infrastructure building will support demand in the long term even in the face of any adverse global developments. |
Indian businesses today are much more efficient in terms of processes, quality and financing than they were even a decade earlier. It is indeed a matter of pride that many Indian companies have emerged as important global players and have developed the ability to drive innovation and change the dynamics of the existing market place. |
We at the ICICI Group have a shared vision of India and the opportunities for an Indian financial services company in the Indian and global arena. Over the years, we have grown with the country to establish leadership positions in retail credit, corporate and investment banking, international banking, insurance, asset management and private equity. Given the long-term growth outlook for India, we now aim to be leverage our existing structures and leverage growth opportunities arising out of the country’s progress. |
There is no doubt in my mind that India today is at the cusp of a paradigm change in its position in the world. We must act decisively to capture this opportunity. What we need now are corporate leaders who can think differently, act without fear, shape organizations and create opportunities where none existed earlier. The young India of today is the product of a new millennium. You need to think and act differently from the generation before yours. It is under your leadership that India will achieves her rightful place in the world. Great leadership emanates from the ability to dream. Nothing is impossible if you believe in your abilities and work to realize your dream. My best wishes to all of you. |
