There are different opinions that how the word µBank¶ originated. Some of the author¶s opinion
that this word is derived from the word µBancus¶ or Banque¶, which means a bench. The
explanation of this origin is attributed to the fact that the Jews in Lombard transacted the
business of money exchange on benches in the market place; and when the business failed, the
people destroyed the µbench¶. Incidentally the word µBankrupt¶s said to have evolved from this
practice.

Some of the authors are of opinion that the word µBank¶ is derived from the German word back,
which means µjoint stock fund¶. Later on when the German occupied major part of the Italy the
word µBack¶ was italicized into µBack¶.

In fact human left the need of bank when it begins to realize the importance of money as a
medium of exchange. Perhaps it where the Babylonian who developed banking system as early
as 2000 BC. At that time temples were used as banks because of their prevalent respect. During
the rule of king Hamurabi (1788 ± 1686 BC) the founder of Babylonians Empire, loans were
started being granted for interest. The borrower has to provide guarantee or he had to pledge his
goods or valuables. King Hamurabi drew up a code wherein he laid down standards rules for
procedures for banking operations by temples and great landowners. Also in Greece, the temples
were used as banks, where the people deposited their money and other valuables for safe custody
and security. In Europe with the µrevival of civilization¶ (Renaissance) in the middle of twelve
century, trade and commerce started expanding and this development compelled the business
community to borrow the money from the Hebrew money lenders on high rates of interest and
usury. Seeing the great demand, these moneylenders started organizing themselves and bank
started up at the principle seaports of southern Europe. Soon Venice and Geneva became the
most important money markets of the time and banking though different from its present form,
flourished. What we know as µmodern banking¶ originated in the 14th century in Barcelona.1

The first phase in evolution of banking in Pakistan sees very hard days for the whole banking
sector. Starting virtually from scratch in 1947, the country today possesses a full range of
banking and financial institutions to cope with various needs of the economy.

The area now constituting Pakistan was, relatively speaking, fairly well provided with banking
facilities in undivided India, in March 1947 there were 3496 offices of Indian scheduled banks
out of which as many as 487 were situated in territories now constituting Pakistan.

The Reserve bank of India was the central banking authority in India. At the time of partition it
was decided that in the interest of smooth transition it should continue to function in newly
emerging state of Pakistan, until 30th Sep.1948.

In 1947 due to uncertainty and unsuitability the banking sector suffer heavy losses.

This resulted in a negative effect on baking service in Pakistan. The banks, which had their
registered offices in Pakistan, transferred them to India. In an effort to bring about the collapse of
the new state by pushing a deliberate policy of withdrawals the Indian bank offices closed
quickly. Those banks, which stayed, operated only in name pending the winding up of their
business. The number of scheduled banks thus declined form 487 branches before independence
to only 195 branches by 30th June1948.5

#/0"12$342567

In this tense situation, a committee was immediately setup to formulate a scheme of central
banking legislation for Pakistan. Many specialists were of the opinion that in view of the acute
shortage of trained staff, any idea of establishing a central bank was I impractical and the best
that could be attempted was the setting up of a currency board until such times as sufficient staff
could be organize to operate a central bank.

The questions as to whether the institution should be only a currency board or a full-fledged
central bank had exercised the mind of the Pakistan government since independence. Through, it
was realized that the shortage of trained personal to run the central bank would present serious
difficulty in view of the tangible advantages that a central bank enjoyed over currency board, the
government ultimately decided to take the bold step of setting up a full fledged central banking
authority. Among other factors, which led to this decision, there was the fact the banking
facilities in the country had been totally disrupted and there was an urgent need for their
rehabilitation, which a central ban alone could meet. As there was hardly any time to pass as Act,
an order was drafted, known as the state bank of Pakistan order, which was promulgated by the
government of Pakistan on 12th may 1948. The state bank declared open on July 1, 1948 by the
father of the nation.

One of the first tasks of the state bank was to arrange for the replacement of the Reserve bank of
India notes, which had continued to circulate in Pakistan during the transitional period, by
Pakistan currency.

The first Pakistan notes were issued in October 1948 in the denominations of Rs. 5, 10 & 100.

An equally urgent task, which the new central bank had to address itself, was the creation of a
national banking system. To this end, while extending every help and encouragement to Habib
Bank to expand its organization, the state bank recommended the setting up of a new banking
institution to serve both as an agent to the state bank recommended the setting up of a new
banking institution to serve both as an agent of the state bank as well as the spearhead of its
credit polices.

Accordingly the NATIONAL BANK OF PAKITSN was setup under an ordinance in November
1949. It started with six offices in the former East Pakistan. In view of the special role assigned
to the new institution, contrary to traditional practices the Governor of the state bank was
appointed to head its board of Director in 1950. Under the fostering care of the state bank and the
support of the government, the new institution developed rapidly. By using its special powers,
the state bank made liberal advances to the new bank to help it expand credit facilities in the
country. By 1952, the National bank of India. Shortly, afterwards, in November 1952, the
governor of the state bank ceased to function as the president of National bank of Pakistan.

With a view to broadening the institutional framework of the financial system, the state bank also
sponsored the establishment of specialized credit institutions in the filed of agriculture and
industry. Banking companies (control) act was passed in December 1948 specifically
empowering the state bank to control the operations of banking companies in Pakistan.

Moreover realizing that the most serious limitation on the expansion of banking services in
Pakistan was the lack of trained personal, the state bank sponsored a banking training scheme,
which was repeated after year and turned out a large number of bankers.

As the Commercial Banking facilities continued to expand, a new Pakistani bank, the National
Commercial Bank was established and registered as a scheduled bank. In the filed of industrial
finance a new institution known as the industrial credit and investment cooperation was set up.

The year 1958 marked the completion of the first decade of the working of the State Bank of
Pakistan. When it was established there were only 195 bank offices in existence. At the end of
June 1958 their number had increased to 307, of which Pakistani banks accounted for 232
against 25 in mid 1948. Moreover at the end of June 1958. Pakistani banks held 60% of the total
banks deposits, and were responsible for 65 of total bank credit.

When the Ayub Government took over in 1958, the banking and monetary scene was
significantly affected by Developments such as the liberalization of imports, transfer of business
in food grains to the private sector, and the firming up of commodity markets. The demand of
funds picked up and there was a substantial expansion of bank credit to the private sector. The
pace of expansion in the institutional frame work of the country¶s banking system quickened and
a new Pakistani, bank, namely the United Bank Limited was established.

Owning the five years 1960-65, the credit structure in Pakistan made rapid progress. The bank
extended its network by opening six new offices located at Chitagong, Peshawar, Quetta,
Khulna, Layallpur and Rawalpindi. The number of scheduled bank offices rose from 430 at the
end of June 1960 to 1591 in June 1965. Several new banks were added to the list of scheduled
banks.

Two principal additions were the commerce bank, and the standard bank. The number of
scheduled banks, which stood at 29 in June 1960 rose to 36 by June 1965.
Under the impact of economic growth and dear scope of private enterprises, bank credit to the
private sector rose from Rs. 1,458 millions to Rs. 5759 million. Thus the total expansion in bank
credit to the private sector during this period amounted to Rs. 4300 million, which gave a annual
expansion of Rs. 860 million compared to the annual average increase of Rs. 144 million over
the preceding five years. Banks deposits increased from Rs. 2,493 million to Rs. 6883 million
during the five years period ended June 1965 compared to Rs. 231 million in the proceeding five
years. Time deposits during this period increased from Rs. 946 million to Rs. 3228 million,
where demand deposits rose from Rs. 1997 million to Rs 3655 million. The increase in time
deposits was particularly rapid. The ratio of time deposits to total deposits in June 1965 stood at
49.6 percent age as against 32.01 percent age five years earlier. Another salient feature of
banking development during this period was that since the rate of increase in bank deposits
lagged behind the rate of expansion in bank credit, the banked has to depend increasingly on
central bank finance. They borrowing from the state bank rose from Rs. 11 million in June 1960
to Rs. 1688 million in June 1965. Owing keen demand for bank credit, bank¶s investments could
not increase as rapidly as their advances. Their investments totaled to Rs. 1,874 million at the
end of June 1965 compared to Rs. 1,231 million in June 1960. Investments which were almost
equal to their advances in June 1960 were only about one third of the advances in June 1965.

The third plane period witnessed a further expansion of banking facilities in the country the total
number of scheduled banked offices increased from 1,591 at the end of June 1965 to 3133 at the
close of June 1970. During the same bank credit to the private sector rose from Rs. 5,789 million
to Rs. 9492 million. There was also a substantial growth in the bank deposits, which increased
from Rs. 6883 million June 1965 to Rs. 13147 million at the end of June 1970. A remarkable
change occurred during this period related to the composition of deposits. Time deposit becomes
greater than demand deposits forming about 54 percent age of the total deposits. As oppose to
what happened in the previous period, banks were able to finance a mush higher level of credit
expansion without having to increase their borrowings from the central bank.7

After the assumption of office by a new government in 1971, may 1972 different reforms were
introduced to make the banks more responsive to the requirements of economics growth with
social justice. The reforms aimed at bringing about a more purposeful and equitable distribution
of bank credit, improving the soundness and efficiency of the banks, and securing greater social
accountability of the banking system as a whole.

The role of the banking system had been truly spectacular in mobilizing savings of the
community and meeting the credit needs of the economy. But at the same time, the banks had
generally neglected their role in promoting social justice and had failed to play an effective role
in ensuring a wider and more equitable dispersal of the benefits of economic growth. In
particular the inter locking of ownership with commercial and industrial interests had led to the
misuse of bank resources. There was a heavy concentration of credit in big accounts and in urban
area. Credit facilities for agriculture, small business, newly emerging exports and housing had
remained obviously inadequate while the banks indulged in capital financing in few selected
business sectors and issued guarantees on behalf of favored clients, term clients, term financing
facilities for industry were wholly absent.

Under the banking reforms introduced in May 1972 the state bank of Pakistan was accorded
wider powers. It was authorized to remove directors or managerial personnel, if necessary and
supersede the board of directors of a banking company and appoint administrators during the
period of such super session. It was also empowered to nominate directors on the board of every
bank. As regard bank directors, it was provided that anyone defaulting in meeting his obligations
to bank would forfeit his directorship. Moreover, it was laid down that no person could serve as
director of a bank for more than six years continuously. Each bank was required to have a paid
up capital of not less than 5 percent age of its deposits to be progressively build up to 10 percent
age over a period of time. The banks were also required to transfer 10 percentage of their profit
their reserves every years after the reserve became equal to the paid up capital. With a view to
diversity the ownership of the banks, the banks were required to raise new capital from the
market. Unsecured loans to directors, their families or firms and companies, were totally
prohibited.

The bank reforms also brought about the establishment of new institutions to achieve new
objectives.
A national credit consultative was setup under the supervise of the state bank with representation
form the government and the private sector. It was assigned the task of determining of
economy¶s annual credit needs within the safe limits of monetary and credit expansion with
reference to the annual development plan. Such a credit plan was to cover the public and private
sectors. Alongside the National credit council and Agricultural Advisory Committee was formed
to allocate agriculture credit for various purposes, to coordinate the operation or the agriculture
credit agencies and to oversee the flow of credit to the designated targets. A standing committee
on exports in general and the new emerging exports in particular, was also established. With a
view to encourage the banks to extend credit to small borrowers, a credit guarantee scheme was
introduced under which the state bank under took to share any bonfire losses incurred by the
commercial banks in case of small loans of advances to agriculture.

At the same time two financing institutions were established. The people¶s Finance Corporation
was designed to provide finance to people of small means while the National Development
Finance Corporation was setup of finance public sector owned and managed industries and
enterprises.8

The banking reforms turned to be transitional and interim step and when they were hardly
eighteen months old the government nationalized the banking systems, with the following main
objectives.

To enable the government to use the capital concentrated in the hands of a few rich bankers for
the rapid economic development of the country and the more urgent social welfare objectives.

To distribute equitably credit too different classes sectors and regions.

To coordinate the banking policies in various area of feasible joint activity without eliminating
healthy competition among banks.

The act passed for the nationalization of banks is known as the banks Nationalization Act 1974.

Thus under this act the state bank of Pakistan and all the commercial banks incorporated in
Pakistan and carrying business in or outside the country were brought under government
ownership with effect from Jan 1, 1974. The ownership, management and control of all Pakistani
banks stood transferred to and vested in the Federal government. The shareholders were provided
compensation in the form of federal government bonds redeemable at par anytime within the
period of fifteen years. Under the Nationalization act, the Chairman, Directors and Executives of
various banks, other than those appointed by federal government were removed from their
offices and the central boards of the banks and all local bodies were dissolved. Pakistan banking
council was established to coordinate the activities of the Nationalized Commercial banks. At the
time of Nationalization on December31, 1973 there were following 14 Pakistani commercial
banks with 3323 offices allover Pakistan and 74 offices in foreign countries:

National banks of Pakistan

Habib bank limited

Habib bank (overseas) limited


United bank limited

Muslim commercial bank limited

Commerce bank limited

Standard bank limited

Australia bank limited

Bank of Bahawalpur limited

Premium bank limited

Pak Bank limited

Sarhad bank limited

Lahore commercial limited

Punjab provincial co-operative bank limited

The Pakistan banking council prepared a scheme for the recognition of banks. The bank
(amalgamation) scheme 1974 was notified in April, providing for the amalgamation of the
smaller banks with bigger ones and following the five units in there phases:

National bank limited

Habib bank limited

United bank limited

Muslim commercial bank limited

Allied bank of Pakistan limited

The first phase was completed on 30th June. 1974. When the bank Bahawalpur was merged with
the National Bank of Pakistan. The premier Bank Limited with Muslim Commercial Bank
limited and Sarhad Bank Limited and Pak bank limited and renamed as Allied Bank of Pakistan
limited.

The second phase was completed on 31st Dec.1974, when the commerce bank limited merged
with the United Bank limited.

The third and the final phase were completed on 30th June, 1975 when the standard bank limited
was merged with Habib Bank limited.

The nationalization was very smooth and gave very positive results.

The number of branches, which stood at 3397 on Dec31, 1973, reached on 7661 by end June
1992. The bank deposits which stood at Rs. 1925 corers at the end 1973 reached the highest
mark about 323 corers.1

Another major development in the history of Pakistan Banking System was the introduced of
interest free banking in selected Commercial Banks with effect form Jan1, 1981. This followed
the effort to eliminated interest from the operation of Nation investment trust, the House
Building Finance Corporation of Pakistan. Certain amendments were made in banking and other
laws with the object of ushering in a new system of banking, which would confirm of Sharia. A
new law Modaraba Companies Ordinance 1980 was promulgated. Separate interest free counters
began to operate in all the nationalized commercial banks free counters began to operate in all
the nationalized commercial banks. The state bank provides finance against participation term
certificate and also against promissory notes supported by Modaraba certificate.

In order to cover interest free transactions certain banking definitions such as creditors, debtor,
and advances credits and deposits were revised. Stipulations concerning form of business in
which banking companies may engage may also have been modified schemes were introduced to
provide interest free loans to formers and deserving students.

A private Limited Company named as Bankers Equity limited was incorporated in 1979 to
provide financial assistance to the industrial sector primarily on interest free basis.
A scheme to extend interest free productive loans to farmers and fisherman has also been
introduced. Instead of interest, a system based on mark-up in price, exchange rate differential,
and profit and loss sharing accounts were introduced.

Different financial schemes introduced in the Islamization process are: 2

When it was realized that the role of public sector in the economy is over extended and the
banking sector has more earning potential in the private sector the process of privatization
banking sector restarted in 1991 by the Muslim League Government. Muslim Commercial Bank
was Dis-invested in to two phases while ABL was sold to its employees. Since then allot of
investment is being made in the banking sector and several new banks were established and still
the process is going on. Now only NBP is government bank other than SBP. The performance of
this bank will be analyzed and judged in the following chapters.

##   - /

A new concept of interest free banking was introduced in 1981 and by now it has been
established on sound footing and new trends and techniques are being implemented to make this
system result oriented. New products and their systematic consumption are making Pakistani
banking comparable to their several modern counterparts anywhere in the developed world.

#$ 

 ;

The NBP was established vide NBP Ordinance No. XIX of November 9. 1949.
British Govt. devalued its currency in September 1949, India devalued its rupees but Pakistan
did not. It led to a crisis in trading between the two countries and India refused to lift the
Pakistan Jute. To solve this problem i.e. to export jute NBP was established through an
Ordinance of GOP.p National Bank of Pakistan maintains its position as Pakistan's premier bank
determined to set higher standards of achievements. It is the major business partner for the
Government of Pakistan with special emphasis on fostering Pakistan's economic growth through
aggressive and balanced lending policies, technologically oriented products and services offered
through its large network of branches locally, internationally and representative offices.

The Bank in 1950 had one subsidiary µThe Bank of Bahawalpur¶ on December4, 1947 by the
former Bahawalpur State.

NBP was undertaking Treasury Operations and Managing Currency Chests or Sub Chests at 57
of its offices where the turnover of the business under the head amounted to Rs.2460 million.

i)p Deposits held by NBP constituted about 3.1% of total deposits of all

Pakistani Banks in 1949, which rose to 38% in 1952.

ii) Growth in Deposits was accompanied by increase in Bank portfolio in advances. NBP
lent out to Textile, Yarn, Iron and Steel and played a pioneer role in support of agriculture and
commerce.

iii)pNBP advances reached Rs.554.4 million by December 1959, which was one third of the
total schedule bank credit.3

National bank of Pakistan is also a commercial organization and its main objective is profit
maximization. This is achieved in two ways:

1. By increasing deposits.

2. By charging interest on loans provided to the private sector and business community.

These are explained as:

#5!;

Competition in banking is intense and every bank whether it is Pakistani, foreign, private or
nationalized tries to increase its deposits by providing better facilities to its customers. By
increasing its deposits a bank can extend greater amount of loan and hence achieves higher
profit. NBP is also improving its facilities and services to attract customers with higher volume
of deposits. There are two main factors involved in increasing the deposits. These factors are
improving the services and courtesy. NBP is continuously working on these two factors to
increase its deposits.

#5  A&;

The profitability of a bank largely depends on the amount given to people as loan and the type of
people to whom credit is given i.e. the credit worthiness of the borrowers. This strategy has
worked quite well for NBP. Deposits are collected from the people and invested in different
projects. NBP prefers to give loans to financially sound and reliable parties, after securing the
collators. NBP has an extremely well organized section. The staff is adequately trained, and
educated and competent. They carry out extensive financial analysis before deciding on the loan.
Interest charged on the loans potentially contributes to higher profits.

Some of the other objectives of NBP are:

i. Improve customer services.

ii. Quick disposal of credit cases.


iii. Efficient operation of the branches.

iv. Better Public Relations.

v. Operational and advisory services for foreign exchange accounts activities

#3  

Since NBP is a commercial bank, it performs a variety of functions.

Like other commercial banks, NBP is engaged in financing international trade. Its other major
functions include receiving deposits, advancing loans and discounting of exchange. The
functions performed by NBP are:

#3 ! !

This function is important because banks largely depend on the funds deposited with them by its
customers. Deposits are of many types:

  c!

Current deposits are also called demand liability on current deposits. NBP pays practically no
interest on current deposits. Businessmen usually open current accounts. In NBP current account
can be opened with a minimum amount of Rs.500/-.

 ,.!

Profit and loss sharing deposits (PLS) are also called checking accounts. One can deposit and
draw money easily. Profit on PLS is calculated every month but paid after six months. PLS
account can be opened with a minimum amount of Rs.500/-
,)!

Fixed term deposits are deposits with the bank for certain fixed period before the expiry of which
they cannot be withdrawn unless giving due notice. In this case the rates of profit will be
different depending upon the time period.

#3  ?&&A"

Discounting of bill is practically speaking lending for exchange at their market rate i.e. it pays to
holder of the bill an amount equal to the face value after deducting interest at the current market
rate for the period. This bill has to be mature. This is the common way used for keeping a part of
assets of the bank in a liquid form.

#3# '.

NBP also provides best and unique service to its valued customers. NBP provide the following
agency services to the customers:

 c&&.

As NBP deals with the purchase and sale of various types of securities, therefore NBP also
provide dividend or interest earned on share or bonds or invested money.

In the collection and payment of Cheques, bills and promissory notes etc. National bank of
Pakistan acts as an agent for its customers.

 

NBP also acts as an agent correspondent or representative for its customer at home or abroad.

Utilities provided by NBP are as follows:

b) Order cheque

These types of cheques are also cashable on the counter but its holder must satisfy the banker
that he is the proper man to collect the payment of the cheque and he has to show his
identification. It can also be collected through clearing.

c) Crossed Cheque

These cheques are not payable in cash at the counters of a banker. It can only be credited to the
payee¶s account. If there are two persons having accounts at the same bank, one of the account
holder issues a cross-cheque in favour of the other account holder. Then the cheque will be
credited to the account of the person to whom the cheque was issued and debited from the
account of the person who has actually issued the cheque.

5.1.7) Payment of Cheques

It is a banker¶s primary contract to repay money received for his customer¶s account usually by
honouring his cheques. Payment of money deposited by the customer is one of the root functions
of banking. The acid test of banking is the receipt of money etc. from the depositors, and
repayment to them. This paying function is one, which is the distinguishing mark of a banker and
differentiates him from other institutions, which receive money from the public. However the
bankers¶ legal protection is only when payment is in µDue Course¶. The payment in due course
means payment in accordance with the apparent tenor of the instrument, in good faith and
without negligence to any person in possession thereof under circumstances, which do not afford
a reasonable ground of believing that he is not entitled to receive payment of the amount therein
mentioned. It is a contractual obligation of a banker to honor his customer¶s cheques if the
following essentials are fulfilled.

a)p Cheques should be in a proper form:


b)p Cheque should not be crossed:

c)p Cheque should be drawn on the particular bank:

d)p Cheque should not mutilated:

e)p Funds must be sufficient and available:

A clearinghouse is an association of commercial banks set up in given locality for the purpose of
interchange and settlement of credit claims. The function of clearinghouse is performed by the
central bank of a country by tradition or by law. In Pakistan, the clearing system is operated by
the SBP. If SBP has no office at a place, then NBP, as a representative of SBP act as a
clearinghouse.

After the World War II, a rapid growth in banking institutions has taken place. The use of
cheques in making payments has also widely increased. The collection as settlement of mutual
obligations in the form of cheques is now a big task for all the commercial bank. When Cheque
is drawn on one bank and the holder (payee) deposits the same in his account at the bank of the
drawer, the mutual obligation are settled by the internal bank administration and there arises no
inter bank debits from the use of cheques. The total assets and total liabilities of the bank remain
unchanged.

In practice, the person receiving a Cheque as rarely a depositor of the cheque at the same bank as
the drawer. He deposits the cheque with his bank other than of payer for the collection of the
amount. Now the bank in which the cheque has been deposited becomes a creditor of the
drawer¶s bank. The depositor bank will pay his amount of the cheque by transferring it from cash
reserves if there are no offsetting transactions. The banks on which the cheques are drawn
become in debt to the bank in which the cheques are deposited. At the same time, the creditors¶
banks receive large amounts of cheques drawn on other banks giving claims of payment by them.
The easy, safe and most efficient way is to offset the reciprocal claims against the other and
receive only the net amount owned by them. This facility of net inter bank payment is provided
by the clearinghouse.

The representatives of the local commercial banks meet at a fixed time on all the business days
of the week. The meeting is held in the office of the bank that officially performs the duties of
clearinghouse. The representatives of the commercial banks deliver the cheques payable at other
local banks and receive the cheques drawn on their bank. The cheques are then sorted according
to the bank on which they are drawn. A summary sheet is prepared which shows the names of
the banks, the total number of cheques delivered and received by them. Totals are also made of
all the cheques presented by or to each bank. The difference between the total represents the
amount to be paid by a particular bank and the amount to be received by it. Each bank then
receives the net amount due to it or pays the net amount owed by it.

Advances department is one of the most sensitive and important departments of the bank. The
major portion of the profit is earned through this department. The job of this department is to
make proposals about the loans. The Credit Management Division of Head Office directly
controls all the advances. As we known bank is a profit seeking institution. It attracts surplus
balances from the customers at low rate of interest and makes advances at a higher rate of
interest to the individuals and business firms. Credit extensions are the most important activity of
all financial institutions, because it is the main source of earning. However, at the same time, it is
a very risky task and the risk cannot be completely eliminated but could be minimized largely
with certain techniques.

Any individual or company, who wants loan from NBP, first of all has to undergo the filling of a
prescribed form, which provides the following information to the banker.

(#7 )"?0

a)p Existing financial position of a borrower at a particular branch.

b)p Accounts details of other banks (if any).

d)p Exiting financial position of the company. (Balance Sheet & Income Statement).

promise that he will be responsible to pay the certain amount of money with interest. 

(# 7!&.

There are five principles, which must be duly observed while advancing money to the borrowers.

Safety

Liquidity

Dispersal

Remuneration

Suitability

p '

Banker¶s funds comprise mainly of money borrowed from numerous customers on various
accounts such as Current Account, Savings Bank Account, Call Deposit Account, Special Notice
Account and Fixed Deposit Account. It indicates that whatever money the banker holds is that of
his customers who have entrusted the banker with it only because they have full confidence in
the expert handling of money by their banker. Therefore, the banker must be very careful and
ensure that his depositor¶s money is advanced to safe hands where the risk of loss does not exist.
The elements of character, capacity and capital can help a banker in arriving at a conclusion
regarding the safety of advances allowed by him.

?c"

It is the most important factor in determining the safety of advance, for there is no substitute for
character. A borrower¶s character can indicate his intention to repay the advance since his
honesty and integrity is of primary importance. If the past record of the borrower shows that his
integrity has been questionable, the banker should avoid him, especially when the securities
offered by him are inadequate in covering the full amount of advance.

It is obligation on the banker to ensure that his borrower is a person of character and has capacity
enough to repay the money borrowed including the interest thereon.

c!'

This is the management ability factor, which tells how successful a business has been in the past
and what the future possibilities are. A businessman may not have vast financial resources, but
with sound management abilities, including the insight into a specific business, he may make his
business very profitable. On the other hand if a person has no insight into the particular business
for which he wants to borrow funds from the banker, there are more chances of loss to the
banker.

c!&

This is the monetary base because the money invested by the proprietors represents their faith in
the business and its future. The role of commercial banks is to provide short-term capital for
commerce and industry, yet some borrowers would insist that their bankers provide most of the
capital required. This makes the banker a partner. As such the banker must consider whether the
amount requested for is reasonable to the borrowers own resources or investment.
,B'

Liquidity means the possibilities of recovering the advances in emergency, because all the
money borrowed by the customer is repayable in lump sum on demand. Generally the borrowers
repay their loans steadily, and the funds thus released can be used to allow fresh loans to other
borrowers. Nevertheless, the banker must ensure that the money he is lending is not blocked for
an undue long time, and that the borrowers are in such a financial position as to pay back the
entire amount outstanding against them on a short notice. In such a situation, it is very important
for a banker to study his borrower¶s assets to liquidity, because he would prefer to lend only for a
short period in order to meet the shortfalls in the wording capital. If the borrower asks for an
advance for the purchase of fixed assets the banker should refuse because it shall not be possible
for him to repay when the banker wants his customer to repay the amount. Hence, the baker must
adhere to the consideration of the principles of liquidity very careful.

 !&

The dispersal of the amount of advance should be broadly based so that large number of
borrowing customer may benefit from the banker¶s funds. The banker must ensure that his funds
are not invested in specific sectors like textile industry, heavy engineering or agriculture. He
must see that from his available funds he advances them to a wide range of sector like
commerce, industry, farming, agriculture, small business, housing projects and various other
financial concerns in order of priorities.

Dispersal of advances is very necessary from the point of security as well, because it reduces the
risk of recovery when something goes wrong in one particular sector or in one field.

)

A major portion of the banker¶s earnings comes form the interest charged on the money
borrowed by the customers. The banker needs sufficient earnings to meet the following:

a)p Interest payable to the money deposited with him.

b)p Salaries and fringe benefits payable to the staff members.


c)p Overhead expense and depreciation and maintenance of the fixed assets of the bank.

d)p An adequate sum to meet possible losses.

e)p Provisions for a reserve fund to meet unforeseen contingencies.

f)p Payment of dividends to the shareholders.

"?&'

The word ³suitability¶ is not to be taken in its usual literary sense but in the broader sense of
purport. It means that advance should be allowed not only to the carefully selected and suitable
borrowers but also in keeping with the overall national development plans chalked out by the
authorities concerned. Before accommodating a borrower the banker should ensure that the
lending is for a purpose in conformity with the current national credit policy laid down by the
central bank of the country.

(## ),

In addition to purchase and discounting of bills, bankers in Pakistan generally lend in the form of
cash finance, overdrafts and loans. NBP provides advances to different people in different ways
as the case demand.

7c" 

This is a very common form of borrowing by commercial and industrial concerns and is made
available either against pledge or hypothecation of goods, produce or merchandise. In cash
finance a borrower is allowed to borrow money from the banker up to a certain limit, either at
once or as and when required. The borrower prefers this form of lending due to the facility of
paying markup/services charges only on the amount he actually utilizes.

If the borrower does not utilize the full limit, the banker has to lose return on the un-utilized
amount. In order to offset this loss, the banker may provide for a suitable clause in the cash
finance agreement, according to which the borrower has to pay markup/service charges on at
least on self or one quarter of the amount of cash finance limit allowed to him even when he does
not utilize that amount.

?7
.H 

This is the most common form of bank lending. When a borrower requires temporary
accommodation his banker allows withdrawals on his account in excess of the balance which the
borrowing customer has in credit, and an overdraft thus occurs. This accommodation is generally
allowed against collateral securities. When it is against collateral securities it is called ³Secured
Overdraft´ and when the borrowing customer cannot offer any collateral security except his
personal security, the accommodation is called a ³Clean Overdraft´. The borrowing customer is
in an advantageous position in an overdraft, because he has to pay service charges only on the
balance outstanding against him. The main difference between a cash finance and overdraft lies
in the fact that cash finance is a bank finance used for long term by commercial and industrial
concern on regular basis, while an overdraft is a temporary accommodation occasionally resorted
to.

7 ) H,

When a customer borrows from a banker a fixed amount repayable either in periodic installments
or in lump sum at a fixed future time, it is called a ³loan´. When bankers allow loans to their
customers against collateral securities they are called ³secured loans´ and when no collateral
security is taken they are called ³clean loans´.

The amount of loan is placed at the borrower¶s disposal in lump sum for the period agreed upon,
and the borrowing customer has to pay interest on the entire amount. Thus the borrower gets a
fixed amount of money for his use, while the banker feels satisfied in lending money in fixed
amounts for definite short periods against a satisfactory security

Remittance means a sum of money sent in payment for something. This department deals with
either the transfer of money from one bank to other bank or from one branch to another branch
for their customers. NBP offers the following forms of remittances.
a)p Demand Draft

b)p Telegraphic Transfer

c)p Pay Order

d)p Mail Transfer

Demand draft is a popular mode of transfer. The customer fills the application form. Application
form includes the beneficiary name, account number and a sender¶s name. The customer deposits
the amount of DD in the branch. After the payment the DD is prepared and given to the
customer. NBP officials note the transaction in issuance register on the page of that branch of
NBP on which DD is drawn and will prepare the advice to send to that branch. The account of
the customer is credited when the DD advice from originating branch comes to the responding
branch and the account is debited when DD comes for clearance. DD are of two types.

Pay order is made for local transfer of money. Pay order is the most convenient, simple and
secure way of transfer of money. NBP takes fixed commission of Rs. 25 per pay order from the
account holder and Rs. 100 from a non-account holder.

($#7&!"
Telegraphic transfer or cable transfer is the quickest method of making remittances. Telegraphic
transfer is an order by telegram to a bank to pay a specified sum of money to the specified
person. The customer for requesting TT fills an application form. Vouchers are prepared and sent
by ordinary mail to keep the record. TT charges are taken from the customer. No excise duty is
charged on TT. The TT charges are:

Telegram/ Fax Charges on TT = Actual-minimum Rs.125.

Cable telegram transfer costs more as compared to other title of money. In cable transfer the
bank uses a secret system of private code, which is known to the person concerned with this
department and branch manager.

($$7%&

When the money is not required immediately, the remittances can also be made by mail transfer
(MT). Here the selling office of the bank sends instructions in writing by mail to the paying bank
for the payment of a specified amount of money. Debiting to the buyer¶s account at the selling
office and crediting to the recipient¶s account at the paying bank make the payment under this
transfer. NBP taxes mail charges from the applicant where no excise duty is charged. Postage
charges on mail transfer are actual minimum Rs. 40/- if sent by registered post locally Rs.40/- if
sent by registered post inland on party¶s request.

Human Resource plays a vital role in the success of every service organization. They interact
between man and machine. Their attitude can win or loose the customer. The positive attitude
could only be created in a conducive environment, which can make the staff dedicated towards
the organization and its objectives. In reality the man is more important than machine as it is the
human which could get maximum out of machine to keep a happy customer. However, most
organizations give little importance to this very important asset.

Various aspects related to human resource of National Bank of Pakistan are critically examined
in the following text:

((7&I)
Although the Bank believes in merit but in practice the selection of employees is not done on
merit. Most of the employees are low educated. This shows that candidates with some strong
family background or political pressure are given preference in recruitment and qualified
candidates are sometimes left behind.

(( 7<?,

Like the employee of public sector organizations in Pakistan, the employees of NBP also enjoy
their job for life. Since there is no risk of early retirement or redundancy in rank, they do not
perform with their full potentials. This is one redundancy in rank, they do not perform with their
full potentials, and this is one of the reasons responsible for the low productivity of the
employees of the Bank.
((#7)!!&

The performance of employees of the Bank are appraised though their annual confidential
reports at the end of each year. This has become an outdated method of performance appraisal
and no longer used due to the following reasons:

1.p The performance of employees is evaluated after quite a long time.

2.p Element of subjectivity is involved in this method.

3.p Employee¶s participation is not ensured in the process of evaluation.

4.p Objectives of employee¶s are not quantified.

organization. But by their very nature, human beings are also the most unpredictable. Where a
number of persons work together, interactions among them, of necessity, will lead to conflicts
and NBP is no exception. Most interpersonal conflicts in NBP can be traced back to the
following major heads.

Lack of Communication

Lack of communication is for the biggest reason for conflicts. Not only it is due to the failure to
send a massage but to an interpretation given to the massage by the receiver is different from that
intended.

(((7 .'*&

Diversity in values, perceptions, cultural background and life-style is another reason responsible
for inter personal conflicts in NBP. Different values and perceptions about the same issue, event
or personality hinder understanding. When things come to such a pavement, therefore,
interpersonal conflicts are generated.

The dominant trend in all modern industrial societies of the world is merit and expertise, which
helps promote cohesion and reduce conflicts. But the feudalistic mindset is still very strong in
our set up and there is no tradition of tolerance for differing viewpoints. Hence, interpersonal
conflicts are generated.

((=7c!

Our social acceptance of corruption gives rise to corruption at every level of social and
organizational set up. Corruption involves financial embezzlement, favoritism, nepotism,
cronyism and other number of such practices. All these cause resentment that keep building up
and lead to conflict sooner or later.

In the past few years, some cases of frauds have happened in different branches. The reasons can
be linked with the employee dissatisfaction of NBP.

Maintaining discipline and implementation of authority (tables) in letter and spirit is the key to
success of any organization. In NBP, The authority tables are not strictly maintained. Line

The opening of an account is the establishment of banker customer relationship. Before a banker

These are payable to the customer whenever they are demanded. When a banker accepts a
demand deposit, he incurs the obligation of paying all cheques etc. drawn against him to the
extent of the balance in the account. Because of their nature, these deposits are treated as current
liabilities by the banks. Bankers in Pakistan do not allow any profit on these deposits, and
customers are required to maintain a minimum balance, failing which incidental charges are
deducted from such accounts. This is because the depositors may withdraw Current Account at
any time, and as such the bank is not entirely free to employ such deposits.

Until a few decades back, the proportion of Current Deposits in relation to Fixed Deposits was
very small. In recent years, however, the position has changed remarkably. Now, the Current
Deposits have become more important; but still the proportion of Current Deposits and Fixed
Deposits varies from bank to bank, branch to branch, and from time to time.

Savings Deposits account can be opened with very small amount of money, and the depositor is
issued a cheque book for withdrawals. Profit is paid at a flexible rate calculated on six-month
basis under the Interest-Free Banking System. There is no restriction on the withdrawals from
the deposit accounts but the amount of money withdrawn is deleted from the amount to be taken
for calculation of products for assessment of profit to be paid to the account holder. It
discourages unnecessary withdrawals from the deposits.
In order to popularize this scheme the State Bank of Pakistan has allowed the Savings Scheme
for school and college students and industrial labor also. The purpose of these accounts is to
inculcate the habit of savings in the constituents. As such, the initial deposit required for opening
these accounts is very nominal

This approach is widely used for competitive analysis. It is because of the high intensity of
competition among companies there five main competitive forces.

=(.&'))!.);

It is a very powerful force among the competitive forces the strategies pursued by one firm
can be successful only to extent that they provide competitive advantages over the
competitor. These competitive strategies may be lowering prices, best quality series. The
NBP offering very low charges an demand draft, telegraphy transfer, mail transfer and give
other additional services to the customers and to the Nation. Because NBP is a ³Nation¶s
Bank´.

=( &'0)!;

Whenever new firms ca easily enters a particular industry, the competition increases. The
gout restriction, tariffs, patents etc can stop new firm to enter into the business as per
Banking industry is concerned this market is already very situated in Pakistan and there are
banks with quality services and low charges. So there is no threat to NBP from potential
entry and NBP is also a public sector bank because of that no other new bank not takes over
it.

=(#p & .&!)?!;

This is the third factor affecting the competitions. There may be some other product can be
substitute the product of that industry. For example banks offering sawing schemes in
Pakistan and these schemes are also offered by GPOs in Pakistan so they must compete them
in this field. If they offer low rates than GPOs so people will go to deposit in GPOs. People
concentration high rates so that¶s why sawing PLS accounts are more then current accounts.
The next examples will ATM which substitute presenting cheques at counter and encash it.
The NBP is lacking in this field. It must improve in this field to compete the competitors.
=($p 0!!&;

The bargaining power of supplier affects the intensity of competition, especially when there
are a large number of suppliers. In case of banks the suppliers are customers they supply the
money to banks. Now they must offer good services, quality, and safety. Low charges etc to
customers. In this field NBP is very good. B/C at offers good quality services to customers.
They charge low charges on remittances. So that¶s it is competitions other banks.

=((p 0c);

When customers are concentrated or large, or buy in volume, their bargaining power
represents a major force affecting intensity of competition. Now the number customers in
Pakistan for banks are very high. Banks offering variety of products and services to their
customers. NBP have a large number of customs. Now it must offer good services and
products to their customers to attract them to come to NBP.

Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and weakness of the firm
by properly establishing relation ship between the items of balance sheet and profit and loss
account, in order to make rational decision in keeping with the objective of the organization, for
that purpose the management use analytical tools. To evaluate the financial condition and
performance of the business entity, the financial analyst needs to perform "checkups" on various
aspects of the business financial health.

A tools frequently used during these checkups is a financial ratio analysis, which relates two
piece of financial data by dividing one quantity by the other we calculate ratios because in this
way we get a comparison that may prove more useful than the raw number by themselves. The
business itself and outside providers of capital (creditors and investors) all undertake financial
statement analysis. The type of analysis varies according to the specific interest party involved.
The nature of analysis is depending at the purpose of analyst.

that NBP is utilizing its assets efficiently.

As from the above calculations it is clear that the ratio decreased tremendously in 2003, it is
because of the reason that earning per share increased resulting in decreasing price to earning
ratio.

From calculation it is clear that it have a downward slope. It is b/c of increase in earning per
share.

Year 2000 was best as far as dividend yield is concerned; it was mainly due to the decreased
amount of number of shares outstanding. In year 2001 increase in outstanding shares decreased
dividend yield, but due to increase in total dividend in 2002 it has recovered to 2.45.

From the above table it is clear that the dividend is increasing but in 2003 it is low. It is because
of high market price and low dividend.

Explanation: from calculation and graph it is clear that NBP show a good growth rate in respect
of advances. Only in 2002 it is negative b/c of high advances in 2001 and low advances in 2002.
This shows that NBP is utilizing the deposits efficiently.

The over all performance of NBP is very good. That¶s why it is declare the best bank of the year
2003.

Where one wants to lend money to a company that is about to fail. The ability to predict
corporate failure before the event has been the holy grail of financial analysis for move than 50
years. The collapse comes much unsaddled. One a company will be successful and next year it
will be fail. For this a tool is used which is

Z=0.012A+ 0.014B + 0.033C + 0.006D = 0.010E


Where

A = net current assets  total assets.

B = Retained earnings  total assets.

C = Profit before interest and tax  total assets

D = capitulation  total debt

E = Sales  total assets

Now Z score blow 1.8 was an indicator of probable failure, and a score of over 3 was seen as a
clean bill of health the advantage of this approach is that using a combination of several financial
ratios makes it less likely that the result will be affected by manipulation of financial statements.

If the portion of current asset is greater compared with total assets the healthier is short term
position.

If the retained earning is greater the greater is the extent of the company¶s self financing. The
profit before tax and interest in the third ratio indicates the contribution of a company¶s
profitability toward the end index score. In fourth ratio the investor¶s view of the further
potential of the company is set against total debt. The last ratio shows the ability of the company
to use its assets to generate revere.

Predicting failure of NBP - 1998.

Z = 0.012(.86) + 0.014(0.026) + 0.033(0.014) + 0.006(0.13) +0.010 (0.11)

= 0.010 + 0.0004 + 0.0005 + 0.0008 + 0.001 = 0.0129

This shows that the calculation is below 1.8 and it is an indicator of failure

During my internship I observed that filing system of branch is not good. When certain record is
needed the staff has to struggle to find it out and a lot of time is wasted.

3# B&?0

Work is not equally distributed. On one hand some employee have to work all day without
relaxing while some others have nothing to do at all. This not only creates confusion among
employees but also hurting and disturbing for overall setup of the bank. And above all it results
in dissatisfaction among customers as well.
3$%.

A useful mode of contact is through personal marketing visits. Such visits are important in
informing and perusing the existing and potential customers about the products and creating a
sense of belongingness with them.

Formal organization includes the activities of two or more person, which are cautiously

determined groups and coordinated towards a given objective. It provides base when people are

able to communicate with other, when they have common purpose and they are willing to work.

In NBP, we find a formal organization. Bernard referred to an organization as a formal when the
activities of two or more persons are coordinated towards a given objective. The formal
organization comes into being when people are able to communicate with one another or willing
to act and share a purpose.

In this formal organization of NBP the activities are carried out in a more formal way. In

theoretical terms it provides basis for communication with one another but in practice it is not

exercised because an employee at high level cannot get straight away to manager or SVP and ask

him about of his problem faced by him, because first he has to talk to his immediate superior and

follow a proper channel of communication.

3   ?0"'!

A vast difference exists between theory and practice and NBP has written procedure but practical
work done by employees is a bit different from written procedures.

3 #')'
They don¶t care about maintaining secrecy, especially during the rush hours. They speak loudly
about the account position and while getting clearance of cheque the person can easily get the
whole information from the ledge. The deposit clerk must be careful while passing any cheque.
In this regard another shortfall is in giving the information about the balance on telephone.

3 $A.!!0

It is notified that due to the lengthy procedure of paper work the bank employee are over
burdened. They are unable to give proper attention to the clients and face difficulties in getting
their job done. One reason for lengthy procedure and excessive paper work in the bank is the
lack of computerized technology.

3 (%0!

Efficient banking is one which does not emphasize on number of accounts but on greater amount
of deposits. NBP is more interested in increasing its number of account irrespective to its
deposit. The main reason behind it is that bank does not provide personalize service to all the
account holders and does not improve its quality and services

3 = &"'

Manager has very limited authority; he has to take the approval from his management authority
i-e. In case of advance he has to take the approval of general and regional manager. The other
problem is created, when the manager is not present in his office, the customer have to wait for
hours. This discourages both customer and officers because they have to suffer a lot

3# % * ,

3#<?&'.

Only on the basis of job analysis it can be decided how a right person can be hired, trained,

compensated or promoted. It is very important for an organization that nature of the job is

described and job specifications are mentioned. Most of the employees are simple graduate and

do not have proper background about their job. This creates problems both for organization and
for the employees. In NBP salaries are given according to the seniority and grades. People with

simple or complex responsibility are getting the same salary and facilities. This creates

dissatisfaction among employees.

3# c&!

When customer comes to open an account, the staff does not bother to check his/her place
phone number and permanent address. It is important because in case of overdraft by mistake or
anything which places his account in debit it will be difficult to trace him. On the other hand he
may be involved in any fraudulent activities against the bank. In this case the bank will be in
awkward position.

3##,!&9

NBP does not provide adequate facility of specialized training to their staff. Training is
generalized rather than specialized. As the worker finishes his training, he is inducted into a
specific field without having great deal of knowledge about the field.

In the Hayatabad branch the newly recruited employee training was not imparted, they all
learned things on the job.

Most of the customers shifted their account to the National Saving Center because of the low

rates of saving deposit discourages the customers. Bank should increase their profit rates to

attract customers.

There is absence of job rotation in NBP Hayatabad branch. A person placed in one department
remains their forever. It reduces career opportunities as well boredom and in the end results in
career platueing. Job rotation is very important for employee especially for those who are newly
recruited. The newly recruit should be rated in all department of the banking in order to get
familiar with working of different departments so that when they get a responsible position they
have know how of the whole system.

3#= &',.)

It has been observed that there are delays in sanctioning of cases form the head office, which
results in customer dissatisfaction.

Another very important thing which is ignored in the bank is appreciation if the employee on
their good performance. If hard work and performance of employees is not recognized and
appreciated they become dishearten which results in decline in performance.

Need of training is greatly emphasized all around the world. Training of the personnel is part of
human resource management. It has been noticed that the training program of NBP is not
adequate.

Once the candidate is selected and placed on the respective job. It becomes essential to train him
adequately for the task. They should learn new methods for motivating customers. The training
programmed of the bank should include scientific techniques to improve the decision making
and interpersonal as will individual needs of the employee both specialized to fresh as well as on
job to maintain the high standards of service.

3$  .&!%&,"!

Leadership is a practical term of visible, clear on objective and communicating better control on

financial and administrative matters. Manager is not only responsible for their own units in

business, but also in people terms i.e. training, recruiting, grievance handling and taking
immediate initiative in crisis situation to take major decision affection the future of the bank and

banking community.
3$#)!&'

Human resources are the lifeblood of the organization. If the personnel are recruited carefully

they can become asset to the organization in the case of carelessness a liability on the

organization. Bank is not following its recruitment policy properly due to favoritism, nepotism

and political pressure. Both the top authority and staff union tries their best recruit their favorites,

indulgence of political pressure add salt to the wounds. The persons selected through these

channels are infantile and do not work for the betterment for the bank.

3$$)

Promotion in NBP is purely on the basis of seniority, so the new young person having high
qualification remains behind for quite a lot of time. Top management and staff union put
pressure for the promotion of their favorites, which gives a sense of deprivation to the deserving
employee and their efficiency is affected. As the concept of promotion is attached with better in
terms of greater responsibility, more prestige, greater skills and increased rate of salary. Thus a
better and impartial policy of promotion needs to be followed.

3$(

Transfer means when a person is shifted from one place to another place. It is done either that
person is needed more on the other branch or for improving his skill variety. It is the policy of
the Bank to transfer each employee 3 to 4 years.

3$=%

Bank employee come in daily contact with many people who happen to deal with the casual

remittance, travelers cheques, safe custody, pensioners, depositing license fee and variety of

other functions and variety of other people with whom the Bank has no account or regular

business relationship. The Bank employees are doing very little on their own to explore the

possibilities of selling banking services to them as a marketing contributor. The entire Bank
community should make a conscious effort in addition to their normal work to explore the

possibilities of selling banking services to them. The market opportunities are hidden in every

dealing a banker handles; the question is that if he has the art and urge to seize such

opportunities.

3$5,?))

There is no proper way to give information to their customer. To avoid this minor dissatisfaction
and tension in the mind of customer, and deficiency of the service, it is recommended that the
bank should provide brochures etc containing information in details.

Some general information should be placed in information notice board on the entrance where
customer can see it easily or it should be self-attractive.

NBP is an effectively operating and profit making organization and carrying out its activities
under a specified system of procedure. The main regulatory body is State Bank of Pakistan,
which provides policy guidelines and ensures that the money market operates on sound
professional basis. While the head office specifies the whole procedure of function and
operations. This procedure has been modernized with the passage of time with a view to
streamline the approach and underlying procedure for effective overhauling of its own
capabilities so as to bring them at par with international practices.

Here I am giving some suggestions, which in my view can add some input for efficiency and
better performance of NBP as an organization in genera and City branch in particular.

The recommendations are as follows:

2&

NBP staff lacks professionalism. They lack the necessary training to do the job efficiently and
properly. Although staff colleges 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 global economic scenario.

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

2  &"'

Employees of the bank should be given a task and authority and they should be asked for their
responsibility.

2#)!!&
The manager should strictly monitor the performance of every staff member. All of them should
be awarded according to their performance and result in the shape of bonuses to motivated and
incite them to work more efficiently.

2$
.c)?&)! 

In the critical analysis this, problem is discussed. To overcome this problem it is suggested that a
special section should be made inside the branch. Which should only handle the treasury
function, salaries and pensions of federal personnel or the bank should do these functions in the
evening time. Also management should purchase more furniture and arrange them in such a way
which provides maximum space and convenient specially in deposit department and there should
also be convenient sitting place for customers.

2(

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 evenly
rotation of every employee should take place after every three years in different braches of the
bank.

2=c"&

There should not be any abrupt policies change by the upper management, as this practice hurts
the customer confidences in the bank. Government should make long term policies

25 E&

Required, qualified staff should be provided to branch in order to improve the functioning of the
branch. Especially a telephone operator should be appointed.

23 &'&&c"

Bank gets Rs. 2 to 3 to processes a utility bill, and it is very tire, tough and hard job despite this
working resulting in a loss to then Rs 3 to5 per transaction. These charges should be increased to
RS 10 per bill to enable the branch to cover their handling costs and make some profit.
22,0"" E

100 major branches of NBP should established a direct link with the, head quarter

In Karachi, through Internet or Intranet. This will make the functions and decision making of the
management easier and convenient.

26cc

National bank of Pakistan should start its operation in credit card. These cards are very helpful
for the ordinary customer in general and the business people in particular. To make it mores
secure and to eliminate the misuse of it, the management is required to keep proper security
against the card.

2&&*&%

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

This branch is situated in the City, which is supported to be the hub of business activates. In this
area an auto teller machine (ATM) is the need of the hour businessmen can easily check their
balance in the bank and also with draw their money conveniently.

2 
.;

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

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

2$c" 

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 charge on this amount as well
because the bank gas kept-aside the amount for that borrower and can not advance it anywhere.

2( ).A!

Bank should their administrative expenses. This was Rs 8 billion in the year 2000. That can be
done by lying off the surplus pool of employee with golden handshakes scheme. The branches
that are not much used could also be closed. Employee can also be how to control the bank
expenses. That will give positive results in the future.

2= ? &A?&&'

As mentioned earlier, NBP is very conservative in advances and loans policy. It reduces the
investment opportunities. Also loans should be given to the small businessmen and the
agriculture sector at the low markup rate. It should adopt flexible credit policy while giving
credit to the agriculture sector.

25"&&.)

I would like to suggest that at least all the main branches of NBP should be fully computerized in
order to expedite the dealing process among bankers and their customers. Every department
should be provided a computer with adequate training (especially Advances, Deposits and
Foreign Exchange departments).
Daily records should be entered directly into these computers, (instead entering the overall daily
transactions after the banking hours). It will not only reduce transaction time, will increase
accuracy but will also be efficient as well.

Not only it will be economical but will also reduce the extra burden of work of the bank. It will
also help in reducing the use of excessive paper work.

23&"!

Good relationship among staff member leads to the peak performances in any organization. I
observed that the staff relationship was normal other wise but some time I noticed that there
existed a little conformity among the staff members. Another syndrome from which the staff
suffered was that all of them considered themselves more important than others. Some of the
officers used to say that if I am absent for a day the bank would stop working. So this sort of
attitude is not good because it mars bank image and juniors¶ willingness learn and work hard and
in the end will hurt the whole team.

22)!! ?>

Proper distribution work leads to success in every organization. Proper distribution of work
prevents the employee from over and under work situation. So for a smooth running of an
organization proper distribution of work is the hint to be followed.

During my internship I observed that there was no proper distribution of work in the bank. I saw
that some of the employee worked like ants other sat idle starting here and there. So this created
a lot of over work situation for while relaxation for other.

2 6 .)!)

In the City branch during my internship I saw that when some of the employees are transfer to
other places, due to their relation with influential people and with top management they can
cancel their transfer in few weeks, when they are unsatisfied at that place.
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 according to the rules and regulations
of the bank and provided favorable environment to the employee to show their performances.

2  !)&

I watched during my internship that, there is number of employee who have worked on one seat
for many a year. It can have negative effects motivation of employee who is hard working and
intelligent. Take the example of advances section. In advance section if the employee is transfer
after sixth month or seven month, how can he be able to show his performances and how can he
be able to know the bank customer in a short period of time.

2  '

For the internship the place I have selected was City branch, which is my forefather land and I
know that from area many people have traveled to other country for different kind of jobs, and I
have heard personal complaint about the unavailability of foreign currency account in banks. So
I thick it is wonderful opportunity for the bank to open foreign currency account.

2 #%&'

The branch should adopt various marketing strategy and promotion strategy to promote the bank
and its product.

The most important in my opinion is personal marketing; it is the most effective of all when you
think in term of branch level. But on the whole organization level, they should arrange the
seminar with in the bank and outside the bank. They should introduce various prizing schemes
just like Allied Bank. Karamad Scheme, Bank Al-Falah (monthly income earning scheme) and
various others.

They should do more advertising through newspaper and media and through channel of personal
contacts.

G  !"#$%#"&'
There should be an information 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.

Every person cannot go to the manager for the complaint because most of the people are hesitant.
So I suggest management to install a compliant box in the branch, and recruit a special person for
that guidance of the customer when they are unable to manage some difficulties in banking
matters.

2 (&'";

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

2 =
9&c)))

It is suggested that employees working on daily wages basis should be given some benefits,
which the other employees are getting. Their salaries must increase according to efficiency,
performance and service.

2 5%&,"!

In the analysis, we have discussed the difficulties of the assistant in taking any initiative;
therefore it is recommended that the assistants should he given special training to make them
ready for the leadership.

2 3c%

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

The staff members who have done all the paper work of the loan extension should perform the
monitoring, as he/she will be having more information about the borrower.
2 2A 

The banking hours may be extended up to six, as being practiced by HBL opposite to it.

Some of the business community due to law and order situation are now reluctant to keep the
fund in their premises and would want to depart with it. Therefore, City Branch may extend the
night banking to cater to demand of this business community. The branch could also be opened
to cater the requirements of this business community

Limited staff:

2#6   &/&

Bank should initiate these loans because most of bank¶s customers are middle class and they
cannot afford to buy house or house hold goods at once by their own

2#. ?

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

Policies should be crafted in a way to ensure that no loan is extended on political pressure. SBP
regulation for loan approval should be strictly followed. According to which the current ration of
borrower¶s business must be 1:1 and the debt to equity ratio should be 60:40, means the liquidity
position of business should be healthy.

2# c ")

Another financing scheme with the name of ³MARE GARE CAR FINANCING SCHEME´
should be initiated This finance scheme will help the general public to buy the car of their choice

The need for telephone operator was created because the staff members would have to leave their
work and attend the telephone but some times it would be a wrong call, other¶s call or the calls
which they wanted to avoid this would not only waste their time but also affect their performance
a great deal. Therefore they think it¶s useful to have a spare person for this facility.
