Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh PalConfessions of a Banker is more than an autobiography. It is a bare-it-all account of the aspirations and dreams of a banker who carves a unique place for himself in the big bad world of banking. As the author takes you through his journey through ten banks, he is determined to reveal the truth and nothing less than that. While he takes pride in his achievements and skills, he also confides his mistakes and bravely owns up to his transgressions too.
The author talks about the various people instrumental in shaping his career, some of whom were renowned banking personalities. He also traces the evolution of the banking sector since the Eighties, giving a sneak peek into the hitherto unsaid ‘inside’ stories and scams from the industry. Interspersed with incidents from the author’s personal life, the book is bound to make readers ponder, smile, laugh and cry too. This is a bold and candid tale narrated with confidence and conviction and served straight from the heart.
