Overall Performance of Consumer Banking Services of Standard Bank Limited
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
An internship program is arranged to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Without
theoretical knowledge practice can not yield expected results. On the other hand, without
practical knowledge theoretical one has no meaning. Realizing these. When I join as
internee in Standard Bank Limited This program designed to nourish our confidence and to
develop my consistency. I joined to the SBL Green Road Branch on 11.10.2010 .I got about
three months to gather practical knowledge from this SBL House, although it was too short
to gather maximum. The report is like an abstract of all that I have learned during the
practical period. I have tried my best to make this report meaningful. I hope that this report
would be able to portray the overall achievement of my internship program. In this report I
want to present the overall situation of the SBL condition, Objective of SBL, the strategy
also. In this report I want to present my experience that I learnt like the product of SBL &
also their interest rate , their way of processing, Rules Etc And Also try to present the
limitation & benefit & findings of working SBL ..I have tried in my best to study the materials
related with our topic and observed Consumer Banking Service .
CHAPTER 01
INTRODUCTION
1.1Introduction: SBL, due to its strong progress and well supported consumer banking for the people has a established good position in banking sector in Bangladesh . Among its various products one of the key products is the personal loan for consumers. In the undertaken study the different features of the product as well as its benefits and downsides have been assessed. In addition to that the loan utilization aspect as well as modifications
has also been proposed. Briefly speaking “An overall performance of consumer banking services of SBL ”. While the overall bank performance of consumer banking services will be described on a much larger scale.
1.2Objective of the Report:
Identify the strategies for SBL implementing in constant prosperity of the company. Analyzing the performance trends of the fast growing banking corporation. To find out the management problems and solve the problems. Finding out the key issues that work barriers while providing services to its
customers. Finding out what are the facilities provided by SBL to its clients and how they
perceived those. To identify the problem faced by SBL. To give some idea about its management and organization structure. To develop the capabilities as an employee in realistic field of the job market.
1.3 Scope of the Study:
The scope of the report is based on the author’s personal experience as an intern at SBL House, Green road branch during the period 11October,2010 to 27 January’ 2011. Being a student of Human resource management it appeared more interesting to make a comprehensive study on Consumer service process, How to face with customer, Idea of all product of SBL, Their Direct Sales Executives, recruitment process, maintaining loan process etc1.4 Purpose of the study:
The internship report aims to analyze the performance of this Bank in comparison to others in every sector and in particularly the consumer product of Standard Bank Ltd and suggest ways to make improvements in the current practices & also understand the office environment.1.5 Limitation:
Some limitations had been faced in the completion of the report which was:
The bank’s policy of not disclosing some data and information for obvious reasons, which would have been very much useful for the report.
Confidentiality of data was another important barrier that was faced during the conduct of the study. Every organization has its own secrecy that cannot be revealed in publics.
Lack of sufficient data regarding customer usage of the loan amount also posed a serious problem in assessing the portfolio performance.
Since the time allocated for internship program is twelve weeks, it may have a coercive effect on this study lowering the actual value and standard.

Dhanmondi BananiMirpurIs lampurUttaraGreen RoadPanthopathRing RoadSavar

CHAPTER 06
Miscellaneous
Challenges of workSBL being an local bank has a very fr iendly and helpful working environment. Being an intern the most chal lenging work for me was to perform my dai ly job properly.
I had to be very s incere and alert while I was doing my work as any mistake done by me could do a great harm to the bank. The work environment at SBL always provided me with chal lenge to improve my performance everyday.
Learning Experience:
I have learned that when the internal communication is effective among the employees within the organization, i t tends to encourage employees to perform better and i t automatically motivates the employees.
I learn the total recruitment system of sales in SBL,
I a lso learned about the latest interest rate of the product
I learned to banking environment and also the file process.;
CHAPTER 07
CONCLUSION
Standard Bank is stil l regarded as rel iable bank and the growing number of
its customers indicates its acceptance among cl ients. But i t should be
considered that the customers have very few choices of banks with which
they can actual ly compare the service of SBL, The nationalized banks of
Bangladesh already have earned a bad reputation in serving customers.
Other pr ivate banks have l imited operation in l imited locations. The local
banks have recently focused their attention to customer service, satisfaction
and also credit service. Moreover there are a good number of private banks
that are coming into the competition soon. Therefore, i t is better for SBL
not to let si tuation be worst and should emphasize on serving customers
effectively and efficiently to ensure better service.
CHAPTER 08
RECOMENDATION
In this short span of time at the organization, I have tried my level best to acquire as much
knowledge as possible about the bank and its way of conducting operations. I was assigned
to GB department, but had the opportunity to communicate with employees of other
departments as well this helped me to attain a splash of knowledge about the other banking
functions. I believe I lack the qualifications/experience to criticize its system but as a well
wisher of the Standard Bank Limited (SBL) I would like to shed some light on a few issues
which I believe; SBL has got potentials to work on in order to improvise their activities
further.
Some recommendations are given to match customer’s criteria and deliver better services:
01. Formulation of (MMP) Model Marketing Plan
Management of the Bank is to work for creation of conceptual framework covering core
elements of developed “Model Marketing Plan – (MMP)” of Standard Bank Limited to face
the competition and changes in the banking industry into the new millennium for sustained
growth of business / profitability of the bank
02. Realistic Business philosophy:
Business philosophy that identifies current and future opportunities, defines magnitude and
quantum, determines target markets and cluster, and decides on products, services and
programs to secure entry to markets for economic and financial gains were made. The aim
of planned marketing efforts is to understand customers and to ensure that offered
products and services adapt to targeted customers’ needs perfectly. The marketing plan to
be designed to perform tasks of stimulating demands for Bank’s products and services to
influence the level timing and composition of demand help customers’ consummate their
business objectives.
03. Refresh Review of total System
In pursuit for excellence, the management of Standard Bank should review their systems,
policies, processes and product prices in line with the changing market reality.
04. Total Market segmentation for proper class satisfaction
Selection of target markets including dividing the markets into major market segments
sharing common properties, evaluation, selecting and targeting segments and deciding on
ways of positioning in each market can be a good way of satisfying clustered market
options.
05. Improvement of the HRD
The HR department of the bank is one of the weakest areas and many of the human
resource development policies and practices are not being followed or implemented.
Though, there has been performance appraisal for the employees but still it is lying idle and
no action has been taken. The management should immediately apply the performance
appraisal system and take appropriate actions on the basis of that appraisal. All sorts of
promotions or other benefits should be based on the report of the performance appraisal.
The traditional method of considering years of work experience as the criteria should be
changed and rather the new method of looking at the output, productivity and quality of the
work should be considered. The HR wing has to be more active rather than maintaining
administrative duties. Other than the head of this division, the staffs in this wing are
incompetent for this position. More qualified and skilled HR professional should be recruited
for this department for the future growth of the HR in SBL. The HR department should be
gradually extended at the branch level as the bank is expanding so that each branch has a
HR official.
06. Formulation of Recruitment / remuneration policy
Better recruitment
SBL must pursue a strong and an effective recruitment system so that the right people are
recruited at the right job. But now as the bank is expanding, it must focus on attracting,
getting and retaining qualified personnel for filling up its positions. It is worth spending
more on attracting qualified human resources rather than getting the wrong people in the
wrong positions.
Stop Reference Appointment
SBL management and particularly the Board of Directors must change the system of
appointing people by giving their reference. It has been deeply observed that most of the
reference appointees are not up to the standard and have a poor performance. For the sake
of the bank’s future and further strengthening the quality of work force, this tendency to
appoint people on reference must be stopped
Enhancement of remuneration package
The present compensation package at SBL is very unimpressive and not capable to attract
quality personnel to fill up its positions. Many skilled and devoted officers of the bank are
depressed with their compensation package. Since the foreign banks pay double that of SBL
and other private banks also have a higher scale than SBL, it is high time that the
management should consider revising the remuneration package in order to attract quality
human resources.
07. Improvement of quality of service
The improvement of service quality is must for the Bank because in this is the time of
presenting people the best you have in your hand and Standard Bank is far more behind
than its competitors in the market. So if they want to see themselves as a leading private
bank they have to do more than enough on quality of services to customers.
08. Branch Expansion
For expanding geographically the bank should open up new branches in strategically
important places. Before entering into a new market the bank should do extensive market
research.
09. Introduction of compliance management Most of the local & foreign banks are using this management where they can get the
current feedback from the consumer which is must for any organization trying to satisfy its
customers most.
10. Employee training
Employee training over customer satisfaction would be great for the bank because it will
help them to cooperate & interact more professionally with the customers as well as they
would know how to settle a practical problem in banking career. Nowadays it is must for the
private Banks because of its competitiveness in the market.
11. Introduction of wide range of new products & services
To attack more new customers or to retain existing customers the bank has to introduce
new range of product & services to customers. Otherwise they will be bored having a same
service twice or more time and go for the other to satisfy their new needs.
12. Improving ATM / Debit/ credit card facility
Expansion of ATM service & improving the quality of card service is must for the Bank.
Because it has no ATM networks of its own and customers have to pay extra charges to
attend any sort of ATM services. So introduction of its own ATM service will do satisfy the
customers more.
13. Advertisement and Promotion
Advertising & promotions are one of the modern techniques to gain attention of new
customers as well as it’s strategically a tactical way of spreading the good waves of the
organization. This bank is lacking in this sector than its competitors. If the bank is going to
capture a new market & attract people with its new array of products, advertising &
promotions is must .
SBL should pursue an aggressive advertising campaign in order to build up a strong image
and reputation among the potential customers. It must give up the idea of maintaining a low
profile in the market. Rather, it should come in to the limelight through an aggressive
marketing campaign such as advertisement in the newspapers and magazines, more
billboards and neon signs, publicity messages and promotional campaigns. SBL can also
pursue promotional campaigns with its customers particularly the corporate clients in order
to build up a stronger rapport with them. Television advertisement is also a major method
for attracting the potential customers. As it is a new bank, a strategy of exposing the bank to
the public must be taken so that the general people are aware about the emergence and
the growth of the bank.
14. emphasis on corporate clients
SBL should provide sophisticated services to big corporate clients and should introduce
many innovative and enterprising schemes to support the corporate clients. Now the bank
should increase its investments in sectors like real state, consumer loans, health care etc. in
order to make adjustment in its credit portfolio. SBL can also pursue promotional campaigns
with its customers particularly the corporate clients in order to build up a stronger rapport
with them.
This is an innovative way of attracting corporate clients to the bank. In stead of providing
CCS to executives of various companies, SBL can introduce a special scheme for corporate
officers for the purchase of consumer durable at an attractive interest rate. In this way, the
bank will be able to attract a lot of corporate clients and in the long run the bank would be
benefited by getting business for the bank from the corporate clients in terms of L/C, Loans
and advances etc. for example, officers of BTC, Uniliver , Square, Beximco can be entered in
to the corporate scheme.
15. Delegation of authority
As a part of introducing participate management system in the organization, there should
be gradual delegation of authority in order to develop future leaders with in the
organization. Authority should be delegated gradually to a certain extent at the branch level
for speedy disposal of financial matters and providing faster services. Moreover, in a
decentralized organization there will be both top down and bottom up communication and
therefore the communication channel with in the company becomes stronger. The top
management also comes to know better ideas from the lower level and many ideas from
there can be implemented for the development of the bank.
16. More Staff MeetingsAll the departments in the Head Office as well as in the branches should have more staff
meetings and inter departmental meetings. This would allow each department to monitor
its on going progress and identify the hindrances or the hurdles while achieving their targets
or carrying out the activities. Through staff meetings at all start of the management would
make a concentrated effort of all the employees to achieve their goals and which in turn
would allow the organization to achieve the targets. Departmental staff meetings can be
held weekly or fortnightly and this would allow in charge of each department to identify the
problem areas and corrective actions can be taken immediately or can be informed to the
higher authorities. The process of pro-active strategies can be implemented through regular
staff meetings instead of pursuing a reactive strategy where each department waits for the
feedback from their higher authorities, Used in the foreign banks. It is also cost effective for
the management to introduce new banking software as it has all the modern banking
facilities and will actually prove effective in the long run for the bank when it considers
establishing ATM and other automated banking facilities.
17. Develop IT sector
Now days the financial services industry, especially the banking sector is undergoing
revolutionary changes with the advent of modern technology and introduction of new
products based on the electronic system, the concept of conventional banking has been
changed.
In Bangladesh, although we are lacking a total integrated banking software solution of
international standard, however, Standard Bank Limited put its best efforts to introduce a
computerized banking system which provides efficient, reliable, fast service and accurate
information to its customer as well as management, shareholders and regulatory bodies.
18. Introduction of advanced banking software
As there are service limitations in the present STEALER Bank software that is quite
inadequate in providing speedy services both to the customer and internal uses of the bank.
Therefore, the concerned authorities should consider replacing the STEALER banking system
with more advanced banking software.
