“If God was a Banker” is the first book by Mr. Ravi Subramanian. Being a banker by profession, all of his books revolve around the area of banking. Major reason to choose this book was the fact that it was written by an Indian author and it was a best seller too. The Book also received the prestigious Golden Quill Award for Reader’s Choice for the year 2008.
Other than the awards the book has received, it’s title also made us to select this book for study. It’s title is unique in its own nature. When I first heard the title it created curiosity in my mind that how could God be related to the banking world and what could be his role in this sector, then I searched about the book on the internet and found out that the story was real and was inspired by the Citibank scam in 1990’s. This generated more curiosity in my mind. One more reason of choosing this book is that one of my relatives who is fond of reading suggested me to read this book as it give an overview of the working environment of a bank. Therefore I took the book to study and finalised it for my review.
