PREFACE

Banks play very important and vital role for the economic growth and
sustainability of economy. The bank deals in money, such institution are also
required to fulfill other financial needs such as provision of place to deposit
money, serving for the utilities and advancing money in order to facilitate the
needs of householders and the businesses. In this report the financial position
of NBP has been studied and analyzed.

The methodology for data collection that was available resources by the
organization, like website, annual reports, books, articles publicly available
data, etc. also, interviews with some employees and observation methods were
used. In the first chapter introduction to the report, background of study, scope
of the study, merits, limitation, and scheme of the study are given. The report
covers the history of NBP bank, introduction of NBP, its background, role and
functions, its core values, and miscellaneous topics related to Finance
department of NBP Bank

Ultimately whole argument comes down to this: the bank is functioning in a


proper & systematic manner, but need more competitive strategies, long term
debts, & outside creditors, creditors should provide the funds to meet the SBP
policies to have the maximum branches.

In this report, I also included the financial analysis that helps to know that
where the NBP is strong and where it needs improvements. NBP offers new
products and services day by day for improving its performance, but there are
many hurdles in the way of success of NBP, all the recommendations are given
in the report and there solutions as well as that can be helpful in the success of
NBP in future.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Allah Almighty is worthy of all acknowledgments, whose grace has no limits


and who gave me the strength and will to complete this report.

I have no words to express my heartiest sense of gratitude to my supervisor,


Madam Rabia Noreen for his supervision, contribution, intellectual
guidance, constructive suggestion, valuable time, patience, and wise
comments to make this report possible.

I highly appreciate the help and cooperation of the Branch manager of NBP
Abbottabad branch for his support and collaboration.

The finally yet importantly, I would feel incomplete without thanking to my


parents who always pray for my brilliant success and bright future.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This internship report is related to national bank of Pakistan, being a


government bank it is operating in almost every part of the country that is why
it is the largest bank of Pakistan. Furthermore, NBP has its network outside
national boundaries of Pakistan. The intense competition, among banks, the
privatization of the financial institution and financial liberalization in general
are gradually and continuously making the banking sector effective and
efficient.

National bank of Pakistan is one of the leading and establishes banks of the
country. It has a large setup of departments and a big organizational structure.
While working in a Abbottabad branch of the bank, it is not possible to
thoroughly cover all the areas of the bank, as it requires more time and two
months are in no way sufficient to do so. Different tools and techniques were
used to gather relevant information for writing the report. Secondly, journals
from regional head quarter and staff college was also reviewed which gave
very useful information about the functioning of the bank. I also visited the
national bank of Pakistan’s official web site, which gave very useful
information about the services provided by the bank.

NBP established in 1949, National bank of Pakistan has grown to become the
largest commercial bank in the country, maintaining its position as Pakistan’s
premier bank determined to set higher standards of achievements. The bank
came in to existence by the order promulgated by governor general and started
functioning from Nov 20, 1949. NBP is the major business partner for the
government of Pakistan with special emphasis on developing Pakistan’s
economic growth through aggressive and balanced lending policies,
technologically oriented products and services offered through its large
network of more than 1400 branches locally, 24 branches internationally and
11 regional offices.
The basic purpose of this report is to describe and define different functions
and products of the bank, to identify weak areas of the bank, to analyze the
performance of the management and to make a financial analysis of it and
suggest recommendations. It is also our degree requirement to do an internship
in any company so the basic purpose of this report is to fulfill the bachelor
degree requirement

This internship report is divided into five chapters, which are:

Chapter 1 includes background, purpose of study, Scope of study, some


limitations, merits, and scheme of this Report.

Chapter 2 includes background and history of banking in Pakistan as well as


Introduction to NBP, Abbottabad branch.

Chapter 3 includes the financial statement, Products, and services offered by


NBP to its valued customers.

Chapter 4 includes the SWOT and ratio analysis and their interpretation.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION OF STUDY

Starting with the name of Allah, I am going to write my internship report as


part of the academic requirement for the completion of four year’s study in
Bachelor of Business Studies. Therefore, we the students of Management
Sciences are required to undergo an internship program for the period of 6
weeks as an internee in an organization. This internship helps me to gain the
practical knowledge of working environment of the banking sector of
Pakistan.

1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY

NBP established in 1949, National bank of Pakistan has grown to become the
largest commercial bank in the country, maintaining its position as Pakistan’s
premier bank determined to set higher standards of achievements. The bank
came in to existence by the order promulgated by governor general and started
functioning from Nov 20, 1949. NBP is the major business partner for the
government of Pakistan with special emphasis on developing Pakistan’s
economic growth through aggressive and balanced lending policies,
technologically oriented products and services offered through its large
network of more than 1403 branches locally, 24 branches internationally and
11 regional offices (Annual report NBP, 2016).

1.2 PURPOSE OF STUDY

The purpose of this study is to get more knowledge about the structure and
functioning of National bank of Pakistan and to check its financial health. For
this purpose I have done financial analysis, common size analysis and ratio
analysis of the bank, this is carried out to judge the actual financial position of
the bank and give recommendations on financial aspects to further improve
the functioning of the bank.

1
1.3 SCOPE OF STUDY

The time duration of two months is insufficient for conducting complete study
and observation of a large bank. Being a student specializing in finance, the
focus of this study is on its financial aspects including the financial health of
the bank and its comparison with previous year’s performance. Some of the
problems faced by the bank have been identified and some recommendations
have been suggested to overcome these problems and to improve the
prevailing financial condition of the bank.

1.4 LIMITATIONS OF THE WORK

There are some limitations which internee had to face during the internship
program, which are described as under:

 The period of two months was too short to properly understand and analyze
all the operations of bank.

 Staff members avoided to give all information due to the matter of secrecy.
So it was very difficult to collect the relevant information and to learn
accordingly.

 Manager and other staff members have busy schedule due to this reason it
was a great problem for them to spend time with internee, so it is not easy to
learn or to gain knowledge from them.

 Some of the data was confidential and that was not made available to me.

1.5 BENEFITS OF THE STUDY

An internship grooms a person personally, academically and professionally. At


the end of internship, one gets a certificate, which acknowledges his work for
that specific company. This adds to his experience, an internship is a great
opportunity to improve interpersonal skills. Practical also provides the
opportunity to gain self-confidence. Moreover, it Figure out what one’s

2
strengths are and also a good time to identify one’s weakness so that he can
improve them.

2.1.3 Evaluation of Banking / Industry in Pakistan

At the time of independence in 1947, Pakistan’s commercial banking facilities


were almost jammed according to a plan in the whole sub-continent especially
in the Muslim majority areas. Pakistan’s banking and Industrial sectors were in
very poor conditions. Banks largely depend for their growth and development
on industrial sector but at the time of independence, Pakistan had patriotically
on industry except a few textile mills and only product food grains and
agricultural raw materials, most of the industries were situate in Hindu
majority area now called India.

A number of banks closed their branches with the result that only 81
branches remained open on 30th June 1948 out of 487. The head offices were
in India and most of their employees were Hindu, and they fled to India.
Imperial Bank of India, Which was conducting government receipts and
payments, closed down most of its branches thus blocking the funds needed by
the government?

The country was in trouble and needed most of the general commercial
banking and credit facilities. This need was a little bit satisfied with the
transferring of the head offer of the HBL. To Karachi on 7th, August 1947.
This bank playing a great role in the next year in the economic development of
Pakistan as the Habib Bank was also new in the new country it was asked to
open more branches at new place this was a difficult time foe H.B.L to open
their branches in different places.

In view of the above mentioned circumstances and in order to


rehabilitee the banking in Pakistan without further delay, on the
recommendations of an committee it was decided to establish as early as
possible a central bank to control the banning and currency in Pakistan.
Accordingly state bank of Pakistan was Pakistan was inaugurated by Quaid-e-
Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah on 1st July 1948. This bank lost on time in
meeting the national requirements of banking, currency and took following
remedial measures. Requested Government of state a new bank of nationwide
services accordingly National Bank of Pakistan was formed in 1949 which

5
opened many branches and in 1952 took over the emperor Bank of India. It
will draw Indian Currency notes of Rs: 125 crore from General Circulation
and send these for recovery to reserve Bank of India.

Interpretation

The major components in the balance sheet of banks are deposits, advances
and investments. Advances decreased from 2015 and o 2016, increased from
41 % to 45%. Investment increased from 2015 to 2016 although it is not
comparable to previous years, still it is showing improvement from 2015. This
is due to low interest rates in 2015 and higher interest rate in 2016 and.
Bankers are left with only option of investing in short-term investment, to
increase their profit margin. Investments, as being a non-interest source of
income are more promising than advances that are becoming more profitable
due to inclining interest rates. Bankers prefer to give advances when the
interest rate was high but then prefer to invest in non-interest income in 2016 .

4.2 Ratio Analysis

Ratio analysis is an important and old technique of financial analysis. Ratios


are important and helpful in the reference that:

These simplify the comprehension of financial statement and tell the whole
story of changes in the financial conditions of the business. These provide
data for inter-firm comparison. The ratios highlight the factors associated with
successful and unsuccessful firms, also reveal strong and weak firms. These
help in planning and forecasting these can assist management in its basic
functions of forecasting, planning, coordination and control. These help in
investment decision in case of investor and lending decision in case of
Bankers etc.

However, the ratios are only indicators, they cannot be taken as final regarding
good or bad financial position of the business other things have also to be
seen. Great care is needed while calculating meaningful ratios and in
interpreting them. Although there are several ratios, which an analyst can
employ yet the type of ratios he would, use entirely depends on the purpose
for which the analysis is done i.e., a creditor would keep him abreast about the
ability of a concern to cover up its current obligations and so would care about
current and liquid ratios, Turnover of receivables, coverage of interest by the
level of earnings etc.

4.2.1 Liquidity Ratios

In graphs 2016 should be near origin. Round the figures upto 2 decimal places
We need to provide complete working of the ratios. we are required to
carefully study the table regarding “maturities of assets and liabilities”. Where
you can easily find the current and long term part of assets and liabilities.
Assets and liabilities having upto 1 year maturity are considered as current
assets and current liabilities. This table is given in the annual report of the
selected bank. You need to re-calculate the current and long-term parts of
assets and liabilities according to this table.

48
These are includes:

 Current Ratio:

Current ratio = current asset/current liabilities

1.11 1.13 1.10

Comments:

The current ratio of 2016 and 2015 is almost same. It means that its current
ratio is less liquid. There is small increase in industry’s ratio which can meet
the short term obligations of 2016 and 2015.

CHAPTER 5

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1CONCLUSION

I will briefly explain my internship in National Bank of Pakistan, Abbottabad


branch . NBP has very strong network there are many opportunities available
for qualified persons, they can join it for long-term career, and Overall
working environment of NBP is very comfortable. Furthermore, Management
of Abbottabad branch concentrates on its employees and considers them as
the Asset of bank. Behavior of branch manager is very polite and the whole
management focuses on the individual’s career and their growth.
I found my internship at NBP to be a very knowledgeable experience and
training was very much beneficial for me, because it helped me to be aware of
a real life working environment, As far as my learning is concerned; all the
employees at branch were very much cooperative. Related to this,
management of this branch helped me to understand the procedures of a bank
to possible extent; their good behavior also gave me more confidence to learn
more about the banking operations and to ask if I have found any query in my
mind.

I had made an honest effort to present the working & operations of NBP,
specifically to Abbottabad branch in simplest way. Moreover, I feel pleased
that I have really learned a lot during two months & enjoyed working with
experienced cooperative & intelligent staff.

5.2 RECOMMENDATIONS

National bank of Pakistan is an effectively operating and profit making


organization and carrying out its activities under a specified system of
procedures. These procedures and regulations changes with the passage of

62
time. The state bank of Pakistan, which is the main regulatory body, provides
all the procedures and information to ensure the effective operations of the
commercial banks. The man regulatory body is state bank of Pakistan, which
provide the policy guide lines and ensure that the money market operate on
sound professional bases. While the head offices specifies the whole procedure
of functions and operations.

Here some suggestions are recommended, which can increase the efficiency of
the workers and as well as the performance of the NBP.

Recommendations are given in the following,

5.5.1 Professional Training:

The staff members do not have the strong professional background. They do
not have modern techniques and knowledge regarding the bank procedures.

Although staff training colleges are working in all major cities but they are not
performing well. For this purpose these staff colleges should be reorganized
and their syllabus should be made in such a way to help the employee
understand the ever-changing economic conditions.

Banking council, of Pakistan should also initiate some programs to equip the
staff with much needed professional knowledge.

5.5.2 Delegation of Authority:

To make the environment of the work place more cohesive proper authority
delegation is required in the bank. Staff members of the bank should be given
a task and authority and he or she should be ask for their responsibility. In this
way no one can put the blame of their mistake on others.

5.5.3 Performance Appraisal:

The manager should strictly monitor the performance of every staff member.
All of them should be awarded according to their performance. Special
bounces and incentives should be given to motivate them.

63
5.5.4 On The Job Training:

On the job training should be carried out by the management to make their
staff better concerning the global changing economic environment. For these
purpose seminars, conferences and debates should be organized.

5.5.5 Transfer:

Transfer is not properly carried out. Some of the employees are continually
serving at the same post. They are simply rotated at the same branch.

Therefore it is recommended that rotation of every employee should take place


in every three years in different branches of the bank.

5.5.6 Changes in Policies:

There should not be any abrupt polices by the upper management, as this
practice damage the customer confidence in the bank. Policies should be made
in such a manner that any new government could not alter it.

5.5.7 Qualified Staff:

Required qualified staff should be provided to branch in order to improve the


functioning of the branch. Especially a telephone operator should be
appointed. Number of people should also increase in order to facilitate the
work smoothly.

5.5.8 Availability of computers:

Most of the work in Baffa branch is carried out manually. Therefore it is very
time consuming and difficult task

It is recommended that every department should keep their data in computers;


similarly advance department should also keep the profile of the borrowers in
computers which will make their job easier while calculating different
installments. Special computer programs should be designed according to their
needs, ensuring full reliability and security.

64
5.5.9 Utility bills charges:

The banks are entitled to levy special charges on utility bills (electrically, gas,
telephones etc.) from consumer. It was fixed by the government. These
charges are so less that they are unable to meet the cost of the bank. These
charges should be increased to Rs.10 per bill to enable the branch to cover
there handling costs and earn some profit.

5.5.10 Link with the Head Quarter:

100 major branches of NBP should establish a direct link with the head quarter
in Karachi, through internet. This will make the functions and decision making
of the management easier and convenient.

5.5.11 Credit Cards:

National bank of Pakistan should start its operations in credit cards. These
cards are very helpful for the ordinary customer in general and the business in
particular.

To make it more secure and to eliminate the misuse of it, the management is
required to keep proper security against the card.

5.5.12 Installing Valuator

Valuator machine is used to count the currency notes and its installation will
help to eliminate the counting errors and will save time as well.

So for the purpose of saving time the installation of valuator is compulsory.


5.5.13 Forecasting:

Efficient forecasting may increase the profitability of the any organization. So


Forecasting needs to be introduced at NBP. Before taking any major decision
it is necessary to judge decision, which they are likely to take. Whether it has
good or any bad impacts for the bank and for the economy as a whole. It will
also help in better planning.

5.5.14 Interest On Overdraft:

Overdraft is a short term credit facility provided by the bank to its trustworthy
customers free of interest. Only bank commission is charge on the amount of
credit availed. It is recommended that the bank should charge small amount of
mark-up on the overdraft, which will help the bank to improve its revenue
position.

5.5.15 Clean Loan:

Clean loan or clean overdraft is the credit facility extended to the customers
without any security. These types of small term loans should not be extend to
anybody, because sometimes these loans are provided to blue-eyed people of
the management and they become a part of bad debts.

5.5.16 Cash Financing:

In this mode of financing the amount of credit not utilized by the borrower is
remained tax free. It is recommended that a small amount of interest should be
charged on this mode of financing. Because the bank does not utilize this
amount anywhere.

5.5.17 Staff Relationship:

Good relationship among the staff members leads to the better performance in
any organization. It is observed that the staff relationship was normal but some
time it is noted that their existed a little conflicts among the staff members. So
this sort of attitude is not good because it weak the spirit of team work.

5.5.18 Improper Distribution of Work:

Proper distribution of work leads to success in every organization. Proper


distributions of work prevent the employee from overwork and under work
situation. For a smooth running of an organization proper distribution of work
is very essential.

66
During the internship I observed that there was no proper distribution of work
in the bank, some of the employee work like ants while others sat idle staring
here and there. So this created a lot of overwork situation for some employees.

5.5.19 Favoritism and Nepotism:

In the Oghi branch during the internship, it is observed that there is lot of
nepotism and favoritism.

When some of the employees are transfer to other places, due to their relations
with top management they can cancel their transfer in few weeks.

So I suggest that in the organization there should be no favoritism, nepotism


and politics and their transfer and promotion should be made on merit and
provide favorable environment to all the employees equally. They should be
rewarded on their performance.

5.5.20 Inter Department Transfer:

It is observed during the internship that, there are number of employees who
are working on one seat since last two years. It can affect the performance and
motivation of the employees negatively. Therefore there should be the
interdepartmental transfer of the employees to make the jobs and the working
environment interesting. And this transfer should be for a reasonable time
period.

5.5.21 Marketing Policy: The branch should adopt various marketing strategy
and promotion strategy to promote the bank and its products. These marketing
strategies may be very helpful. For this purpose the bank should conduct the
seminars and conferences within and outside the bank.

The NBP should adopt various prizing scheme just like allied bank (kar –amed
scheme) bank Alfalah (monthly income earning scheme) and various others.
Media and newspapers can be helpful in this regard.

67
5.5.22 Facilities In branch:

There is no proper facility for the customers in the bank when they enter the
bank. The proper furniture is not available for the customers. In the time of
rush the people move here and there in the bank which really create the
disturbance.

So in order to maintain the good working environment the customer should be


served properly so that they can feel that they have taken the right decision to
choose this bank for the safety of their money. If the bank takes steps in this
direction then, it will increase the goodwill of the bank.

5.5.23 Complaint Of Customer:

There should be an inquiry desk to provide the information and to receive the
complaints of the customer in the bank.

There is no complaint box available in the branch and not any person
appointed to hear the complaints.

So I suggest that management should install a complaint box in the branch,


and recruit a special person for the guidance of the customer in the bank.

5.5.24 Analysis of the Business:

Proper analysis of the business should be conducted before extending any type
of loan. For this purpose professional training of the staff member is required.

5.5.25 Credit Monitoring:

The credit department of the bank should carries out vigilant credit
monitoring. They should ensure the proper payment of installments and the
markup by the borrower.

The staff member who has done all the paper work of the loan extension
should perform the monitoring very carefully.

68
5.5.26 Avoiding Bad Debts

Great care should be taken while extending the loans. Loans should be
awarded against reasonable securities, where market value should be equal to
the loan granted.

Policies should be adopted in such ways that ensure that no loan is extended
on political pressure.

SBP regulations for loan approval should be strictly followed. According to


which current ratio of the borrowers business must be 1:1 and the debt to
equity ratio should be 1:2 means liquidity position of the business should be
healthy.
