In 1955, the controlling interest in the Imperial Bank of India was acquired by the Reserve Bank of India and the State Bank of India (SBI) came into existence by an act of Parliament as successor to the Imperial Bank of India. Today, State Bank of India (SBI) has spread its arms around the world and has a network of branches spanning all time zones. SBI's International Banking Group delivers the full range of cross-border finance solutions through its four wings - the Domestic division, the Foreign Offices division, the Foreign Department and the International Services division. The SBI was formed in 1955, through nationalization of imperial banks in India. The imperial bank of India has been formed by the amalgamation of three existing presidency banks. With the nationalization of imperial bank in India, all its assets and liabilities were transferred to the state bank of India. It was converted into SBI on 1/07/1955 on the recommendations of the committee for All India Rural Credit Survey, headed by Shri. A.D. Gorwala (the committee recommended the establishment of one strong, integrated, state sponsored, state partnered commercial banking institution). At that time SBI had three circles, Bombay, Calcutta and Madras besides a central office at Bombay, SBI was the first bank to set up as the public sector.
