Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
While considering the marketing of a product, whether a physical or a service product, we must understand the customer's need as per Maslow's theory of hierarchy of needs and human behaviour:
Physiological needs - food, drink, oxygen, sleep
Safety needs - avoidance/protection from threatening situation and economic security
Social needs - friendship, affection and sense of belonging
Esteem needs - self-respect, recognition, status and success
Self-actualisation - self-fulfilment

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ITEMS
Off-Balance Sheet Items are those items in the books of a bank, which are not mentioned in the balance sheet of the bank. These items are not assets or liabilities to be reported in the balance sheet as on the date of balance sheet, but may get converted into an asset or liability at a later date, depending on the happening of a certain event. These items are contingent upon certain breach of commitments and are also called contingent liabilities.
These contingent liabilities have to be disclosed as 'Notes to the Balance Sheet'. But once these commitments crystallise, these also become part of the assets or liabilities of the bank and have to be shown in the balance sheet. These items include:
(a) Direct credit substitutes, e.g. general guarantees of indebtedness (including standby LCs serving as financial guarantees for loans and securities) and acceptances (including endorsements with the character of acceptance).
(b) Certain transaction-related contingent items (e.g. performance bonds, bid bonds, warranties and standby LCs related to particular transactions).
(c) Short-term self-liquidating trade-related contingencies (such as documentary credits coUateralised by the underlying shipments).
(d) Sale and repurchase agreement and asset sales with recourse, where the credit risk remains with the bank.
(e) Forward asset purchases, forward deposits and partly paid shares and securities, which represent commitments with certain drawdown.
(f) Note issuance facilities and revolving underwriting facilities.
(g) Aggregate outstanding foreign exchange contracts.
(h) Take-out finance in the books of taking over institution (i) Unconditional take-out finance
(i) Conditional take-out finance (iii) Non-funded exposures to commercial real estate.
(i) Guarantees issued on behalf of stockbrokers and market makers.
(j) Commitment to provide liquidity facility for securitisation of standard asset transactions.
