In the outside of the meander there is mostly erosion that is found because that is where the highest energy and velocity occurs. This energy and velocity causes the bank to undercut and collapse. On top of that the river bed becomes deeper as time passes.

No
What is the side of a channel called?
You can have a slip off slope on the inside of a meander bend or a river cliff on the outside of a meander. Or in general you can just call it the river bank
What is the outside of a river bend called?
Because the inside of the meander has deposited rocks and rubble building it up and making the water shallower whereas the outside of ther meander is being eroded by fast moving water.
