In this section two topics are discussed. They are as

under:

Types of Banks

Commercial bankSavings bankMerchant banksMortgage banksConsumer bankInvestment bankCentral bank

Banker and Customer Relationship

A bank is a financial institution which deals with money and credit. It accepts

deposits from individuals, firms, and companies at a lower rate of interest and gives at a

higher rate of interest to those who apply for loan. The difference between the terms at

which it borrows and those at which it lends from the source of its profit. A bank, thus,

18

Page 19: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

is a profit earning institute. Any bank that performs this functioning is called the

commercial bank.

According to Crowther:“A bank is a firm which collects money from those who have it spare. It lends

money to those who require it.”

According to Banking Ordinance 1962:According to Section 5(b) of Banking Ordinance 1962, meaning of banking is

as under:

“ Banking company is a company which transacts the business of banking in

Pakistan, mainly of accepting, for the purpose of lending and investments of deposits of

money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise and withdraw able by

cheque, draft, order, or otherwise ”

Types of BanksTypes of Banks

Merchant Banks:Merchant banks are those, which have been mainly financing the domestic and international trade. During the late 18th and early 19th centuries the trade between countries was financed by bill of exchange by well-reputed merchant’s houses for which they would charges a commission for their services

Savings Banks:The basic purpose of these banks is to inculcate the habit of saving in the people.The savings banks deposits are not repayable upon only the written order of depositor but the depositor of his agent has to appear personally at the saving banks to make withdrawal and for this purpose he must present a pass book a certificate of deposit or some similar documents to prove his right to receive his payments. Post office savings banks and savings accounts at national saving organizations are well known national saving banks in Pakistan.

Mortgage Banks:

19

Page 20: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

These banks mainly deal in loans for acquisition or construction of real estate against the securities of mortgage.

Consumer Banks:These banks providing finance for purchasing consumption goods for the use of Brewers

Investment Banks:These banks assists business houses and governmental bodies to raise money through the sale of stocks and bond for usually long term purposes these banks perform the usual functions of raising deposits of idle money from the public and finance the business houses other bodies.

Central Banks:Central banks occupy the unique position in banking structure of a country because they have been interested with the responsibility of controlling the money supply, interest rate, and financial market of a country for the purpose of economic development.

The relationship between the banker and the customer are of utmost importance. Both

serve the society and the economy to expand. Before we discuss the relationships

between the banker and the customer, it seems necessary that the two terms banker and

customer are made clear.

* Banker *

20

Page 21: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

A banker is a dealer in capital or more properly a dealer in money. He is an

intermediate party between the lender and the borrower and charges a definite amount

of money which is the profit of his.

* Customer *A customer is a person who maintains a regular account with the bank, without

taking into consideration the duration and frequency of operation of his account.

The relations between the banker and the customer are generally studied as

under:

*Debtor and Creditor*The general relationship between banker and customer is primarily that of a

debtor and creditor. When customer deposits money with a bank, the bank then is the

debtor and the customer is the creditor. The customer expects from the bank that (I) his

money will be kept safe by the bank, (II) it will be returned on demand within business

hours. The position is reverse if the customer is advanced loan i.e. the banker becomes

the creditor and the customer is the debtor.

*Bailer and Bailment

Relationship*A bailment is the delivery of goods in trust. A banker may accept the valuables

of his customers such as jewellery, documents, securities etc. for safe custody. In such a

case the customer is the bailer and the bank is the bailee. It charges a very small amount

of money as service charges for safe custody of valuables.

21

Page 22: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

*Pledger and Pledgee*When a customer pledges goods and documents with the bank as security for an

advance, he then becomes the pledger and the bank becomes the pledgee. The pledged

goods are to be returned intact to the pledger after the debt is repaid by him.

*Mortgager and Mortgagee*Mortgage is the transfer of an interest in specific immoveable property for the

purpose of securing the payment of money advanced or to be advanced by way of loan.

When a customer pledges specific immoveable property with the bank as security for

an advance, the customer becomes the mortgager and the bank becomes the mortgagee.

*Bank as a Trustee*The bank acts as a trustee for his customers in those cases where he accepts

other valuables for safe custody. In such case, the customer continues to be the owner

of the valuables deposited with the bank.

*Executor, Attorney, Guarantor*The bank also acts as executor, attorney, and generator for his customers.

Banking is the business of providing financial services to consumers and businesses. The basic services a bank provides are checking accounts, which can be used like money to make payments and purchase goods and services; savings accounts and time deposits that can be used to save money for future use; loans that consumers and businesses can use to purchase goods and services; and basic cash management services such as check cashing and foreign currency exchange. Four types of banks specialize in

22

Page 23: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

offering these basic banking services: commercial banks, savings and loan associations, savings banks, and credit unions.

A broader definition of a bank is any financial institution that receives, collects, transfers, pays, exchanges, lends, invests, or safeguards money for its customers. This broader definition includes many other financial institutions that are not usually thought of as banks but which nevertheless provide one or more of these broadly defined banking services. These institutions include finance companies, investment companies, investment banks, insurance companies, pension funds, security brokers and dealers, mortgage companies, and real estate investment trusts.

Section 22

23

Page 24: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

In this section three topics are discussed.

The major topic of this section is:

History of Banking in PakistanEfforts towards Islamic Banking in PakistanNational Bank of Pakistan

The partition plan was announced on June 3, 1947 and August 15, 1949 was

fixed as the date on which independence was to take effect. It was decided that the

Reserve bank of India should continue to function in the dominion of Pakistan until

September 30, 1948 due to administrative and technical difficulties involved in

immediately establishing and operating a Central Bank.

24

Page 25: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

At the time of partition, total number of banks in Pakistan were 38 out of these

the commercial banks in Pakistan were 2, which were Habib Bank Limited and

Australia Bank of India. The total deposits in Pakistani banks stood at Rs.880 million

whereas the advances were Rs.198 million. The Governor General of Pakistan,

Muhammad Ali Jinnah issued the order for the establishment of State Bank of Pakistan

on 1st of July 1948.

In 1949, National Bank of Pakistan was established. It started with six offices in

former East Pakistan. There were 14 Pakistani scheduled commercial banks operating

in the country on December 1973, the name of these were:

1. National Bank of Pakistan

2. Habib Bank Limited

3. Habib Bank (Overseas) Limited

4. United Bank Limited

5. Muslim Commercial Bank Limited

6. Commerce Bank Limited

7. Australia Bank Limited

8. Standard Bank Limited

9. Bank of Bahawalpur Limited

10. Premier Bank Limited

11. Pak Bank Limited

12. Lahore Commercial Bank Limited

13. Sarhad Bank Limited

14. Punjab Provincial Co-operative Bank Limited

25

Page 26: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

The Pakistan Banking Council prepared banks amalgamation schemes in 1974

for amalgamation of smaller banks with the five bigger banks of the country. These five

banks are as under:

1. National Bank of Pakistan

2. Habib Bank Limited

3. United Bank Limited

4. Muslim Commercial Bank Limited

5. Allied Bank Limited

So, through the Nationalization of Bank Act 1974, the State Bank of Pakistan,

all the commercial banks incorporated in Pakistan and carrying on business in or

outside the country were brought under the government ownership with effect from

Jan. 1, 1974. The ownership, management, and control of all banks in Pakistan stood

transferred to and vested in the Federal Government. The Finance Minister announced

plans to start Islamic Banking system in Pakistan in the budget speech on June 26,

1980, but it could not be possible till August, 2007.

Pakistan was created in the name of Islam on august 14, 1947. But since then, the

interest is paying the cardinal role in resource allocation of the economy. The banking

26

Page 27: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

system in Pakistan based on interest divergences with Islamic ideology and is forbidden

by Almighty Allah and His Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W).

Any government till now in the country except President Zia-ul-Haq did not dare to

change the well-digged system based on interest in banking in Pakistan.

The only step taken under this direction is starting of PLS Deposits from January 1,

1982. Only PLS saving account and PLS term deposits shall be accepted on profit and

loss sharing basis. The banks were allowed to meet the working capital requirements of

their clients on the basis of Musharika, and Leasing, and Hire Purchase. Beside it,

different efforts are made time by time in this respect but could not be acted upon at all.

Recently in June 2002, the Shariah Applet Bench of Pakistan issued an order to all the

banks in Pakistan to change the interest-based banking system to Islamic Modes but the

lawyer from the government of Pakistan challenged it by saying that if any affair is in

the favor of the public of the country and is also admired by the public then it cannot be

abandoned by the government. So this issue is still not resolved.

STEPS TO RESTORE NORMAL BANKING FACILITIES:

The Government of Pakistan was quite aware of the serious banking caused by

withdrawal of deposits and wholesale migration of banking staff to India. It took up

challenge and started reorganizing the crippled banking structure.

The steps below were taken to rehabilitate commercial banking immediately after

partition:

In order to create confidence and sense of security among the Hindus bank and

the non-Muslims banking staff, the Government of Pakistan declared that all

bank properties of non-Muslims who wished to continue banking functions

would not be treated as an evacuee property.

The banks would be free to secure protection of police.

A moratorium of 3 months ease also allowed to banks that had financial

difficulty due to sudden withdrawal of deposits.

27

Page 28: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

In addition to above, the following arrangements were made for facilitating

settlement of claims by the Government:

Each bank was to declare one of its offices both in India and Pakistan as a

clearing house for transfer of accounts.

Each bank was to open at least one central office in Pakistan where it could

consolidate work of all its branches and start paying out to depositors.

The Government took some effective measures far providing banking facilities

to Muslims.

There were some complaints that Hindus banks are not honoring the cheques of

Pakistani nationals and are also refusing to give securities kept in their custody.

The Government issued an ordinance, which empowered it to investigate all

such complaints, and if satisfied of their bonafides, the payments should be

released. In case the bank insists to non-payments, the Government should

realize the assets of the banks, which are sufficient to discharge such liabilities.

The Government of Pakistan also allowed the removal of valuables kept in safe

deposits and lockers by submitting an application and getting necessary

approval from the custodian of Evacuee Property.

INTER-DOMINION AGREEMENT ON BANKING:

The Government of Pakistan tried to provide all kinds of facilities with sincerity

to the non-Muslims bankers for restoring normal banking facilities in the

country but the response was discouraging. An International Dominion

Agreement was reached between India and Pakistan in April, 1949.

The provisions of the agreement were as under:

The accounts of all the Muslims depositors residing in the East Punjab states will be

transferred to their respective branches in West Pakistan. If a Muslim depositor

wishes to retain the account or does not submit an application for the transfer of

funds, his deposits will not to be transferred. The banks were advertise all the

proposed transfers in the newspapers so that the depositors could make objections if

they so desire.

If the accounts of Muslims depositors are in the banks, which have no offices in

West Pakistan, the amounts will be released on the application from the depositors.

28

Page 29: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

If the banks functioning in both the countries have transferred Muslim deposits

from Pakistan to India on its own accord, the deposits are to be transferred to the

original branches in West Pakistan.

The Muslims who were residing in other parts of India (excluding East Punjab and

East Punjab States) and had migrated to Pakistan were allowed to get their deposits

transferred to Pakistan.

The banks wishing to close down their business were allowed to do so provided

they keep an amount equal to their outstanding liabilities in bank situated in

Pakistan. The banks withdrawing from Pakistan were however permitted to remit

surplus funds in India.

Banks were allowed certain facilities by Government for speedily disposal of stock

pledge with them.

The co-operative institutions in East Pakistan had deposited securities valuing

Rs.104.66lac with the Punjab Provincial co-operative Bank. The amount was

allowed to be transferred to Reserve Bank of India. The CO-operative banks in East

Punjab were given permission to transfer the funds to the depositors who had

migrated from the provinces.

The Inter Dominions Agreement could not fully implement. India delayed

the transfer of Muslim deposits to Pakistan. The non-devaluation decision of Pakistan

further led to the supervision remittance facilities through normal banking channels.

Due to panic withdrawal of deposits, some banks went into liquidation and the payment

could not be made to the depositors.

In 1949 (September) U.K. devalued its currency, India followed suit but Pakistan did

not. India said we had contravened the agreement of keeping both currencies at par. We

29

Page 30: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

said we had not done that, India had done it arbitrarily without consulting us. On

October 3, 1949 the two central banks were to announce the new par value of both

currencies but India denied a day earlier. India also froze our trade - balance surplus

that is still an unsettled dispute. India also withdraws the Marwari merchants who were

employed annually for movement of jute crop by financing it. There being no jute

industry, prices fell sharply, foreign banks and foreign merchants stood aside and an

agrarian unrest was threatening

Two Ordinances were, therefore, issued

1. Jute Board Establishment Ordinance &

2. NBP Ordinance dated 08.11.1949

National Bank of Pakistan was established on November 9, 1949 under the National

Bank of Pakistan Ordinance 1949 in order to cope with the crisis conditions which

were developed after trade deadlock with India and devaluation of Indian Rupee in

1949. Initially the Bank was established with the objective to extend credit to the

agriculture sector. The normal procedure of establishing a banking company under the

Companies Law was set aside and the Bank was established through the promulgation

of an Ordinance due to the crisis situation that had developed with regard to financing

of JUTE trade. The Bank commenced its operations from November 20, 1949 at six

important jute centers in the East Pakistan and directed its resources in financing of

jute crop. The Bank’s Karachi and Lahore offices were subsequently opened in

December 1949. The nature of responsibilities of the Bank is different and unique from

other banks/financial institutions. The Bank act as the agent to the State Bank of

Pakistan for handling Provincial/Federal Government Receipts and Payments on their

behalf.

Mr.Ghulam Farooq was chairman Jute Board and Mr. Mumtaz Hassan was chairman

NBP. Until June, 1950, NBP remained exclusively in jute operations, thereafter-other

commodities were also taken-up. After that Mr. Zahid Hussain, Governor SBP assumed

30

Page 31: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

additional charge also as chairman NBP's Board of Directors, and Mr.M.A.Muhajir

became its first M.D.

In 1952 NBP replaced Imperial Bank of India. This arrangement was negotiated by Mr.

Mumtaz Hassan as Acting Governor of SBP.

In 1962 when Mr. Mumtaz Hassan became MD (He had already served NBP for

10 years as its Chairman of government Director), the number of branches had

increased from 6 to 239 and deposits from Rs.5 crore (50 million) to 106 crore (one bn

& 60 mln), profit from 3 million (3 Lac) to 21 million (2.1. crore) and the staff

increased from 380 to 7091, as compared to 1949-50. In Dec. 1966 its 600th branch

was opened raising the deposits to 2.31 bn. and staff to 14, 963. Up to 1965, the

shareholders had received 225% of their original investment. Now it has more than

21549 employees 1537 branches and Rs.208283 million deposits.

The Bank has also played an important role in financing the country’s growing

trade, which has expended through the years as diversification took place. Today the

Bank finances import/export business to the tune of Rs.62.17billion, whereas in 1960

financing under this head was only Rs.1.54billion.

The field is being de-layered to improve customer services and enable faster

decision making. As a result of this de-layering zones have been eliminated and the

numbers of regions have been increased. Organizational hierarchy at the regional level

has been restructured and operational and business activities have been completely

separated. This separation will improve communication, decision making and promote

teamwork.

For the third consecutive year, the Bank is recognized as the best Bank in Pakistan for

the year 2006 by the prestigious periodical. “The Banker” UK (a subsidiary of

Financial Times Group)

93

Page 94: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

This is very important department because cash is the most liquid asset and

mostly frauds are made in this department, therefore, extra care sis taken in this

department and no body is allowed to enter or leave the area freely. Mostly, cash area is

grilled and its door is under the supervision of head of that department. Officer checks

the books maintained in this department.

IMPORTANCEBank deals in money and they are merely mobilizing funds within the economy.

They borrow from one person and lend to another, the difference between the rates

borrowed and lend from their spread or gross profit. Therefore, we can rightly state that

deposits are the blood of the banks which cause the body of an institution to get to

work. These deposits are liability of the bank so from the viewpoint of bank we can

refer to them as liabilities.

TYPES OF DEPOSITSTYPES OF DEPOSITSDeposits can be segregated on two bases, one is the duration in which these

funds are expected to be with the bank, and second is the cost of getting these funds. So

we can divide deposits into two classes according to duration:

1 ... ... Time Deposits

2 ... ... Demand Deposits

And on the basis of the cost of acquire these funds, a deposit can be classified as

any one of the following four:

94

Page 95: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

a ... ... High Cost

b ... ... Medium Cost

c ... ... Low Cost

d ... ... No Cost

Bank has different kind of deposit schemes in order to induce deposits. These

schemes are a mixture of the above mentioned two types of deposits with and addition

of different services and requirements, mode of transactions, basis for calculation of

profit, deduction, additional benefits, and eligibility for different groups. In the similar

fashion, national Bank of Pakistan has large variety of deposit schemes and some of

these are as follows:

(1) CURRENT ACCOUNTIn this type of accounts, the client is allowed to deposit or withdraw money as and

when he likes, but there is requirement of maintaining the minimum balance of

Rs.5000/- other wise Rs.50/- will be deducted every month. Usually the businessmen

open this type of account and the bank pays no profit on it. These types of deposits are

also exempt from compulsory deduction of Zakat.

(2) PLS SAVING BANK ACCOUNT

This type of account is for those persons who want to make small savings. This type

of account is opened with a minimum deposit if Rs.200/- If the balance in the account

falls below the minimum requirement then a flat charge of Rs.150/- is made in the

account once in a half year. Zakat and other withholding taxes are deducted as per rules

of the government.

95

Page 96: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

(3) FIXED DEPOSITSIn this type of account a certain amount is deposited for a certain period such as six

months, one year, two year or longer. A fixed deposit receipt is issued in the name of

the depositor. The receipt is signed by the officer in charge and the bank manager. A

notice is given to the depositor on a prescribed from two weeks before the Fixed

Deposit Receipt (FDR) falls due, requesting the depositor to withdraw his money or to

renew his deposits. The interest is allowed on fixed deposit varies with the period for

which the deposit is made.

(4) SHORT NOTICE TERM DEPOSIT

This kind of deposit is for a short period as the name indicates. The depositor may

withdraw his deposit at any time by giving seven days notice to the banker. This type of

deposit facilitates the trader to withdraw his amount with interest of the deposited

period.

(5) CALL DEPOSITCall Deposits are the sorts of deposits, which are deposited with the banker against

any tender. This is with out interest deposit, this may be with interest provided with the

depositor has agreed to keep this amount with the banker for some fixed period.

(6) CUMULATIVE DEPOSIT

CERTIFICATEThis is just like of fixed deposit. In this kind of deposit, the rate of interest is higher

as compared to other kind of deposits, which are mentioned previously. The rate of

interest rises gradually as the period extends. Its period ranges from three month to

twenty years.

96

Page 97: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

(7) MONTHLY INCOME SCHEME

National Bank of Pakistan has also introduced Monthly Income Scheme for the

benefits of its customers. An individual or institution, company, corporation etc. can

take the advantage of this scheme.

The following types of ledgers are concerned with deposit department:

1 ... ... Saving Ledgers

2 ... ... Current Ledgers

3 ... ... Profit and Loss Sharing Ledgers

4 ... ... Fixed Deposit Register

5 ... ... Cumulative Deposit Certificate Register

6 ... ... Cash Book

7 ... ... Daily Profit and Loss Summary Book

8 ... ... Voucher Register

Every banker acts both as a paying as well as a collecting banker. It is however

an important function of crossed cheques. A large part of this work is carried out

through the bankers clearing house. A clearing house is a place where representatives

of all the banks of a city get together and settle the receipts and payments of cheques

drawn on each other bank. As the collecting banker runs the certain risks in receipt of

The function of Advances and Credit Department is to lend money in the form

of clean advances, against the promissory note, as well as secured advances against

tangible and marketable securities. The bankers prefer such securities, which do not run

the risk of general depreciation due to market fluctuations. Common securities for the

banker’s advances are as under:

* SECURITIES* SECURITIES **

(1) BANKERS’ LIEN

(Moveable property possessed to the lender cannot be sold in

case of default)

Lien is the bankers’ right to hold the property until the claim on the property

is paid. The bankers look at their lien as a protection against loss on loan or

overdraft or any other credit facility. In ordinary lien, the borrower remains the

owner if the property, but the actual or constructive possession remains with the

creditors, though he has no right to sell it.

(2) GUARANTEESWhen an application for an advance can offer any tangible security, the

banker may rely on personal guarantees to protect himself against loss on advances

or overdraft to the applicant.

99

Page 100: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

(3) MORTGAGE (Immoveable property possessed to the lender can be sold in case of default)

A mortgage is the transfer of an interest in specific immoveable property for

the purpose of securing the payment of money advanced or to be advanced by way

of loan, and existing of future debt, or the performance of an engagement, which

may rise to a particular liability. The person in whose interest the property is

transfer is called mortgagee.

(4) HYPOTHICATION

(Immoveable property possessed to the borrower can be sold in case of

default)

When property in the shape of goods is charged as security for a loan from

the bank, the ownership and possession is with the borrower, the goods are said to

be hypothecated. The essence of hypothecation is that neither the property in goods

nor the possession of them passes to the lender, but the security is granted by means

of letter of hypothecation which usually provides for a banker’s charge on the

hypothecated goods.

(5) PLEDGE(Moveable property possessed to the lender can be sold in case of default)

In a pledge, the ownership remains with pledger (borrower), but the pledgee

has the possession of property until the advance is repaid in full. While in case of

defaulter, the pledge has the right of sale after giving due notice.

* WORK PERFORMED* WORK PERFORMED

DURING INTERNSHIP *DURING INTERNSHIP *I joined National Bank of Pakistan, Branch Ali Pur Chattha on 12 July, 2010. First day,

the manager introduced me about the functioning of the branch and the staff. The

manager told me that counter is the most important place of the bank. During the six

weeks of my internship, I worked in different sections of the branch and did the

maximum practice of banking system details of which is as under:

GENERAL BANKING GENERAL BANKING First of all, I was asked to work in different sections of general banking. I was

attached to Counter with Mr.Aslam Sial manager operations that has good command on

this section. Here we dealt with new customer who wanted to get information and to

deal with the branch. This is a very interesting department because here we met people

of different types and deal with them accordingly. In this section, I observed the

following functions:

CHEQUE AT COUNTER A cheque to withdraw the amount is presented on the counter with the following

requisites:

1 ... ... Name of the Account Holder

2 ... ... Current or previous date

3 ... ... Amount in figures

4 ... ... Amount in wording

5 ... ... One signature of the account holder in the right bottom corner of the

cheque and two signature of the bearer on the back

7 ... ... If the Account Holder uses thumb instead of signature then the Pass

Book or attested copy of CNIC is necessary with the cheque.

Operation’s officer checks and verifies all these requisites. If it fulfills all the

requisites, it is forwarded for payment after a certain procedure.

CHEQUE PAYMENT PROCEDURE After all the requisites are verified and then the excessive balance is checked and

prescribed amount is deducted narrated on the cheque, then SIGNATURE VERIFIED

stamp (in case of signature only) on the signature and a PAY CASH stamp are fixed

and a Token is given to the cheque bearer after writing Token No. on the specified

cheque. Then the Officer G-II verified the cheque and forwarded it to the cashier where

the cheque bearer receives the amount from the account.

ISSUANCE OF DEMAND DRAFT A Demand Draft is provided to the client in which he has to specify that bank it

is drawn. The amount both in words and figures is written on Demand Draft.

BILLS COLLECTIONS DEPARTMENT I spent second week of my training in bills collection department. Mr.

Muhammad Rasheed who is the in charge of this section. Here we collected utility bills

like electricity bills, gas bills, and telephone bills.

BILL REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT This is very important and interesting department. This section deals with the

transfer of money from one branch to another branch. Nearly four drafts are issued

daily from this department. Here I know how the amount is transferred and what the

procedure is. This department also deals with TT transfer of money. I worked nearly

two weeks in this department.

106

Page 107: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT Deposit department deals with Current, Savings, and Fixed Accounts. In current

account the bank does not give any interest and you can deposit the whole amount in

lump sum in business hours.

However in PLS savings account we can only withdraw up to Rs.25000/-

without any notice otherwise a prior notification of a weak is required to the bank if the

amount to be withdrawn is more than Rs.25000/-

Old ages are interested in Fixed Account usually. The rate of interest is higher

more than that of in Current and PLS savings Account but the amount cannot be

withdrawn before a specific time fixed by the client.

To open the account customer have to fulfill an application form and submit to

the concerning authority. In Current and PLS saving Account, a Cheque Book is issued

to the client and he becomes the Account Holder of NBP. I worked in this department

for one and a half week.

Financial Statements AnalysisFinancial Statements AnalysisFinancial analysis is a process which involves reclassification and summarization of

information through the establishment of ratios and trends. Financial statement analysis

is the process of examining relationships among financial statement elements and

making comparisons with relevant information. It is a valuable tool used by investors

and creditors, financial analysts, and others in their decision-making processes related

to stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments. The goal in analyzing financial

statements is to assess past performance and current financial position and to make

predictions about the future performance of a company. Investors who buy stock are

primarily interested in a company's profitability and their prospects for earning a return

on their investment by receiving dividends and/or increasing the market value of their

stock holdings. Creditors and investors who buy debt securities, such as bonds, are

more interested in liquidity and solvency: the company's short-and long-run ability to

pay its debts. Financial analysts, who frequently specialize in following certain

industries, routinely assess the profitability, liquidity, and solvency of companies in

order to make recommendations about the purchase or sale of securities, such as stocks

and bonds.

The analysis of financial statement refers to the examination of the statements for the

purpose of acquiring additional information regarding the activities of the business. The

users of the financial information often find analysis desirable for the interpretation of

the firm’s activities.

The overall objective of financial statement analysis is the examination of a firm’s

financial position and returns in relation to risk. This must be done with a view to

forecasting the firm’s future prospective.

Analysts can obtain useful information by comparing a company's most recent financial

statements with its results in previous years and with the results of other companies in

the same industry. Three primary types of financial statement analysis are commonly

known as horizontal analysis, vertical analysis, and ratio analysis.

110

Page 111: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Ratio AnalysisRatio Analysis

Ratio analysis enables the analyst to compare items on a single financial statement or to

examine the relationships between items on two financial statements. After calculating

ratios for each year's financial data, the analyst can then examine trends for the

company across years. Since ratios adjust for size, using this analytical tool facilitates

intercompany as well as intercompany comparisons. Ratios are often classified using

the following terms: profitability ratios (also known as operating ratios), liquidity

ratios, and solvency ratios. Profitability ratios are gauges of the company's operating

success for a given period of time. Liquidity ratios are measures of the short-term

ability of the company to pay its debts when they come due and to meet unexpected

needs for cash. Solvency ratios indicate the ability of the company to meet its long-term

obligations on a continuing basis and thus to survive over a long period of time.

Financial ratios allow for comparison:

Between companies

Between industries

Between different time periods for one company

Between a single company and its industry average

a) Profitability Ratios

The continued viability of any bank depends on its ability to earn an appropriate return

on its assets and capital. Good earnings performance enables a bank to fund its

operations, remain competitive in the market and increase or decrease in market funds.

Profitability ratios relate profit to sales and investments. These ratios indicate the firm’s

overall effectiveness of operations and give us idea how well firm utilized its resources

in generating profit and shareholder value.

Gross Profit Margin Ratio

Gross profit margin ratio is used to assess the profitability of a Bank's core activities.

Gross profit margin indicates the relationship between gross profit and interest earned.

A high gross profit margin indicates that a Bank can make a reasonable profit.

Formula = Gross Profit / Interest earned (Revenue)

111

Page 112: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Analysis

The Year 2007 has been an outstanding year with the bank recording the highest profit

in its history i.e.., 59.65 %.The National Bank of Pakistan’s wide range of product

offering, large branch network and committed workforce are some of fundamental

strengths that enabled NBP to achieve exceptional in a very competitive market. The

gross profit is 37.74% in 2009. The lowest percentage among all years.

Net Profit Margin Ratio

Net profit margin measures the percentage of revenue remaining after all cost and

expenses, including interest and taxes have been deducted.

Formula = Net Profit after Taxes / Interest earned

Year   2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio % 29.57 37.72 38.59 37.63 25.36

Year   2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio % 57.17 56.55 59.65 55.48 37.74

112

Page 113: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Analysis

Net profit margin shows positive trend till 2007 and was the highest in the same year as

it was 38.59%, the percentage is decreased in 2008 as it was 37.63%. The net profit

margin is on its lowest level at the end of 2009 as it indicates a percentage of 25.63%.

The primary reason of this decline is current global economic conditions and current

political crisis in Pakistan.

Assets Turnover

This ratio is useful to determine the amount of revenue that is generated from each

Rupee of assets. The Banks with low profit margins tend to have high asset turnover,

those with high profit margins have low asset turnover.

Formula = Revenue/ Total Assets

Analysis

The year 2005 represents a ratio of 0.03, lowest among all years. The years 2005, 2008

and 2009 indicates almost same percentage of 0.05% on account of bank’s assets

turnover. The National Bank of Pakistan’s assets turnover in 2007 is 0.06, peak ratio

among all years.

Return on Capital Fund

This ratio relates the net profits to the amount of capital funds that have been employed

in making that profit.

Formula = Net markup received / Capital Funds

Year     2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio 2.92 3.95 4.25 4.12 4.13

Analysis

The above given ratios suggest that the profitability of the bank has a mixed trend

during five years. The first three years 2005 (2.92), 2005 (3.95), 2007 (4.95) shows an

increasing trend, indicating more profitable operations of the bank. It was decreased in

the year 2008 (4.12) and has increased in 2009 as the ratio was 4.13.

Return on Investment

This ratio indicates the profit earned by the bank on the resources employed.

Formula = Net income after taxes / Total Assets

Year 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio 0.011 0.021 0.026 0.024 0.018

114

Page 115: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Analysis

There was an increase in the utilization of the resources till 2007 i.e.., 0.011(2005),

0.021 (2005) and 0.026 (2008). The ratio was decreased to 0.024 (2008) and 0.018

(2009).

Return on Deposits

This ratio indicates to what extent deposits which represent funds mobilization on the

part of the bank contribute towards income generation.

Formula = Net income before taxes / Total Deposits

Year 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio 0.025 0.041 0.052 0.047 0.036

Analysis

During all five years the return on deposits ratio of National Bank of Pakistan shows a

mix trend. The year 2007 (0.052) was the best year for bank in terms of its funds

mobilization. Although the ratio was decreasing in 2009 (0.036), indicating Bank is

more keen to kept deposits and a change in policy of the Bank regarding its funds

mobilization.

115

Page 116: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Effective Tax Rate

This ratio is a measurement of a company's tax rate, which is calculated by comparing

its income tax expense to its pretax income. This amount will often differ from the

company's stated jurisdictional rate due to many accounting factors, including foreign

exchange provisions. This effective tax rate gives a good understanding of the tax rate

the company faces.

Formula = Income Tax expense/ Pretax Income

Year 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Ratio % 0.48 0.33 0.35 0.32 0.32

Analysis

The effective tax rate of National Bank of Pakistan was highest in the year 2005

(0.48%). However bank is able to reduce its tax burden because the Bank is able to

adopt Tax management techniques to lessen the tax burden. A relatively stable effective

tax rate percentage, and resulting net profit margin, would seem to indicate that the

Bank's operational managers are more responsible for a company's profitability than the

company's tax accountants.

b) Liquidity Ratios

The liquidity position of a bank is like a reservoir. It may be adequate, although nearly

Current Ratio

Current ratio is a measure of the current adequacy of company's current assets to meet

its current obligations. It must be greater than 1. If it is less than 1, liabilities exceed

current assets. For every Rs.1 of liabilities, the company has a ratio amount of current

assets available. The concept behind this ratio is to ascertain whether a company's

short-term assets (cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables and

inventory) are readily available to pay off its short-term liabilities (notes payable,

current portion of term debt, payables, accrued expenses and taxes). In theory, the

higher the current ratio, the better.

Formula = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Year   2005 2006 2007 2008 2009Ratio 0.83 0.96 1.02 1.00 1.12

Analysis

The year 2005 (0.83) and 2005 (0.96) were not satisfied for bank as current assets are

less than current liabilities. However, in 2007 (1.02) the management of National Bank

of Pakistan is able to overcome this problem. The year 2008 (1.00) is also good for

bank as per standards of this ratio. Again in the year 2009 (1.12) the management of

bank is able to increase its current ratio.

Cash Ratio

This ratio shows that the cash is enough for payment of current liabilities or not. This

ratio is obtained by dividing cash by current liabilities. For a bank this is the cash held

by the bank as a proportion of deposits in the bank.

Formula = Cash / Current Liabilities

c) Debt Ratios

These ratios give users a general idea of the company's overall debt load as well as its

mix of equity and debt. Debt ratios can be used to determine the overall level of

financial risk a company and its shareholders face. In general, the greater the amount of

debt held by a company the greater the financial risk of bankruptcy.

The Debt to Equity Ratio

The debt-equity ratio compares a company's total liabilities to its total shareholders'

equity. This is a measurement of how much suppliers, lenders, creditors and obligors

have committed to the company versus what the shareholders have committed.

To a large degree, the debt-equity ratio provides another vantage point on a company's

leverage position, in this case, comparing total liabilities to shareholders' equity, as

opposed to total assets in the debt ratio. Similar to the debt ratio, a lower the percentage

means that a company is using less leverage and has a stronger equity position.

Formula = Total Liabilities/ Total Shareholder’s equity

Interest Coverage Ratio

It shows whether the bank is earning enough profit before mark up charges to be paid to

the financiers and the taxation obligations due to the government in order to remain

solvent. The interest coverage ratio is used to determine how easily a company can pay

interest expenses on outstanding debt. The ratio is calculated by dividing a company's

earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by the company's interest expenses for the

same period. The lower the ratio, the more the company is burdened by debt expense.

When a company's interest coverage ratio is only 1.5 or lower, its ability to meet

interest expenses may be questionable.

Formula = Earnings before interest & Taxes / Interest expense

Loan Loss Coverage Ratio

Banks use the loan-loss coverage ratio to define the quality of its assets and how well it

protects itself from losses caused by problematic loans. The higher this ratio is, the

better the bank is handling itself in regards to loans.

Formula = Provision against non-performance loans & advances/ Profit or loss before

e) Operating Performance Ratios

Each of these ratios have differing inputs and measure different segments of a

company's overall operational performance, but the ratios do give users insight into the

company's performance and management during the period being measured.

These ratios look at how well a company turns its assets into revenue as well as how

efficiently a company converts its sales into cash. Basically, these ratios look at how

efficiently and effectively a company is using its resources to generate sales and

increase shareholder value. In general, the better these ratios are, the better it is for

shareholders.

In this section, we'll look at the fixed-asset turnover ratio and the sales/revenue per

employee ratio, which look at how well the company uses its fixed assets and

employees to generate sales.

Fixed Assets Turnover

This ratio is a rough measure of the productivity of a company's fixed assets (property,

plant and equipment etc) with respect to generating revenue. For most companies, their

124

Page 125: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

investment in fixed assets represents the single largest component of their total assets.

This annual turnover ratio is designed to reflect a company's efficiency in managing

these significant assets.

in the year 2009 i.e.., 2587.08, representing the peak percentage in all years.

Horizontal AnalysisHorizontal Analysis

This technique is also known as comparative analysis. It is conducted by setting

consecutive balance sheet, income statement or statement of cash flow side-by-side and

reviewing changes in individual categories on a year-to-year or multiyear basis. The

most important item revealed by comparative financial statement analysis is trend. A

comparison of statements over several years reveals direction, speed and extent of a

trend(s). The horizontal financial statements analysis is done by restating amount of

each item or group of items as a percentage. Such percentages are calculated by

selecting a base year and assign a weight of 100 to the amount of each item in the base

year statement. Thereafter, the amounts of similar items or groups of items in prior or

subsequent financial statements are expressed as a percentage of the base year amount.

The resulting figures are called index numbers or trend ratios.

Formula = Current Year amount / Base Year amount * 100

Horizontal analysis, whilst simple to execute and useful to a certain extent, has its

limitations. These limitations include:

Being highly dependent on the selection of base year and the period under

examination in the financial model.

Horizontal analysis provides little insight into why the trend occurred in a

financial model.

126

Page 127: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Horizontal analysis does not provide insight into whether the trend in the

financial model results was superior/inferior to some benchmark.

Horizontal analysis does not address the challenge of negative numbers.

Vertical AnalysisVertical Analysis

When using vertical analysis, the analyst calculates each item on a single financial

statement as a percentage of a total. The term vertical analysis applies because each

year's figures are listed vertically on a financial statement. The total used by the analyst

on the income statement is net sales revenue, while on the balance sheet it is total

assets. This approach to financial statement analysis, also known as component

percentages, produces common-size financial statements. Common-size balance sheets

and income statements can be more easily compared, whether across the years for a

single company or across different companies.

Vertical analysis is a technique for identifying relationship between items in the same

financial statement by expressing all amounts as the percentage of the total amount

taken as 100. In a balance sheet, for example, cash and other assets are shown as a

percentage of the total assets and, in an income statement, each expense is shown as a

percentage of the sales revenue.

In Vertical analysis, various components of the financial statements are standardized by

expressing them as a percentage of some bases.

Examples of common-sized statements include:

Components of the balance sheet expressed as a percentage of total assets

Threats

159

Page 160: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

* SWOT ANALYSIS *

STRENGTHS

National Bank the Nation’s BankState Bank of Pakistan is government owned bank that is why Pakistani nation

has a trust on the bank that their deposits are secured. Due to this reason the deposits of

the banks are increasing with the passage of time.

Agent of State Bank of PakistanNational Bank of Pakistan also works as an agent of State bank of Pakistan in

those cities where SBP branches are not working.

Agency ArrangementsNational Bank of Pakistan is enjoying with deposit of different Govt.

organization like Pakistan Railways, PIA, WAPDA, Sui-gas due to agency

arrangements.

DepositsNational bank of Pakistan is the largest commercial bank of the country and has

Total Deposits of Rs. 362.87 billion and becomes the first bank to cross the deposit of

Rs. 350 billion.

160

Page 161: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

ProfitabilityThe pre-tax profits of NBP have gone up to Rs. 6.05 billion.

Corporate BranchesNational Bank of Pakistan is now the biggest financial institution with assets

totaling over Rs.310 billion with 1428 local and 23 foreign branches. The bank is the

higher financer in agriculture and commodity operation sector.

Collection of Cash from ShrinesCash collected from different shrines is also deposited in National Bank of

Pakistan.

Comprehensive Range of Financial ProductsIn order to facilitate the customers, NBP is offering the comprehensive range of

financial products which are as follows:

Credit Cards

Foreign Exchange Bearer Certificates

National Bank Daily Accounts

Travelers Cheques etc.

Investing in Capital MarketNBP has decided to diversify the fund base by investing in capital markets not only

in Pakistan but also in the foreign countries.

161

Page 162: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

WEAKNESSES

Lack of Implementation of Rules and

RegulationsBecause NBP is a govt. owned organization so there is a lack of implementation

of rules and regulations.

Poor Working ConditionsDespite, cultural change program the working condition of the NBP is not up to

standard.

Recruitment PolicyIn NBP, employees are recruited on the basis of favoritism or through other tools of

corruption.

Incompetent StaffDue to wrong recruitment policy staff of NBP is not proficient in their work.

Irregularities in PromotionIn NBP there is no smooth and continuous promotion system. Unfair means are

used in order to get the promotion especially the promotion of the managers.

162

Page 163: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Individual DifferenceIn NBP the individual difference have strong impact on the organization’s

performance due to the wrong criteria of selection of the employee. So with the passage

of time individual differences are increasing which are undermining the good will of

the organization.

No Major Use of ComputerIn NBP there is no major use of computer for maintaining the records of

branches as compared to other banks of the country.

Strong UnionUnion has strong impact on performance of NBP. So the top management is

unable to punish the violators and shrieks.

Organizational StructureIn this organizational the organizational structure is bureaucratic which is a

barrier in rapid and effective decision making.

163

Page 164: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

OPPRTUNITIES

Consumer Banking The basis need of the consumer such as housing, transportation and other durable goods

are not adequately financed by the banks. So by initiating these services, the bank can

enjoy with more funds.

Investing in the Foreign Capital MarketNBP can enjoy handsome return its funding base by investing in capital markets

in the foreign countries.

Investment BankingUntil recently the bank perceived as purely commercial banking entity so in

order to expand its business the bank may start investment banking by investing in the

portfolio of handsome return.

New BranchesNBP by establishing new branches in foreign countries can expand its business

and can enjoy with the profit.

Issuance of BondsTo enjoy with large amount, NBP can introduce a comprehensive range of

bonds.

164

Page 165: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

Night BankingDespite of poor customer service of NBP, people still come to NBP because of

its Govt. ownership as they feel it secure therefore bank improve its deposit by giving

facility of night banking and also can compete its competitors with positive steps.

Advisory ServicesIt can establish advisory services in order to facilitate the customers in investing in the

securities.

165

Page 166: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

THREATS

CompetitionThe no. of banks in Pakistan is increasing with the passage of time. So due to

poor working condition and poor customer service it may be possible NBP will lose its

market share in future.

InflationIn our country, the rate of inflation is increasing along with the unemployment.

So due to the increase in price of the products, the savings of the nation is decreasing

with the passage of time. So it is the threat for the banking sector. In the future, the

deposits of the bank will decrease.

Government PolicyOn NBP Govt. policies have strong impact. A slight change in Govt. policies

may affect the performance of the bank. The bank has to work with in the regulation

frame work.

166

Section 9

RECOMMENDATIONS

In this section two topics are discussed that are:

Recommendations

Conclusions

167

Page 168: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

*RECOMMENDATIONSRECOMMENDATIONS*PROPER PLANNING Bank should make a plan to gear up its recovery efforts on war footing and

reorganize the recovery function of global bases. In addition, bank should tighten up

control on expenditure

USE OF COMPUTERS To save the time of the customers and other clients, bank should adopt

computerized system for book keeping and other filling systems. It will increase the

efficiency of the bank. I know that there are some branches which are computerized but

most of the branches in various cities of the country are not computerized. So the bank

should mechanize all its branches in the country.

168

Page 169: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

ADOPTION OF ADVERTISING Bank should launch advertising campaigns through out the year to promote the

habits of savings in the people. Bank should open more branches in the remote areas of

the country to get deposits and idle resources. Bank should provide similar facilities to

all its branches in big cities. The standard of service and other facilities are far better as

compared to smaller cities.

PROPER GUIDANCE Bank should adopt such an induction plan that when a customer opens his

account with the bank, he should be supplied with a booklet which enables him to know

the procedure of filling the cheques and pay-in-slip etc. It will save a lot of time of the

bank staff afterward during of the conduct of the account of that customer.

DIVISION OF WORK The billing system of national bank of Pakistan must be improved to facilitate

the customers and workers. The work should be divided among the staff e.g. collection

of bills, countering of cash and then entry of these.

CHECK ON EXPENDITURES Expenditures must be controlled which are very high and unnecessary.

BORROWING AT LOW COST Deposits must be taken at a lower cost and given at higher interest rate.

169

Page 170: National Bank of PAkistan Main Branch Distt. Bhakkar

*CONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONS*National Bank of Pakistan is government owned bank that is why Pakistani nation trust on the bank that their deposits are secured due to this the deposits of the bank are increasing day by day. In my point of and with respect to my all analysis National Bank is the leading bank because after all it’s our nation’s own bank. During my internship I personally learn very well which all application of my practical knowledge. All the services provided by the bank are according to standard which are internationally described. National bank of Pakistan is enjoying the deposits of Pakistan Railways, PIA, Wapda, and Sui Gas due to agency arrangements

I learn maximum during my internship. It the good effort of practical knowledge. But there is some deficiency with respect to their management because of lack of implementation of rules and regulations, if they can control over these deficiencies they can facilitate their clients.

After making the SWOT analysis, we have concluded that the bank’s strength is of that the bank is the government owned bank and people trust a lot.
