There are many definitions of the word Bank even the standard encyclopedia and law books find it difficult to state exactly what a Bank is.

IMPORTANCE OF BANKING

We can take bank just like a heart in the economic structure and capital provided by it is like blood in it Banks play very important role in the economic life of a nation. The growth of the economy is dependent upon the soundness of its banking system. Although banks do not create new wealth but borrow, exchange and consume. These make generation of wealth. In this way they become most effective partners in the development of that country. To encourage the habit of saving and to mobilize these savings is its basic purpose. Banks deposit surplus from the public and then advances these surpluses in the form of loans to the industrialists, agriculturists, businessmen and unemployed people under different schemes so that they set up their own business. Thus banks help in capital formation. If there are no banks, then there would be concentration of wealth in few hands and great portion of wealth of a country would be idle. In the fewer developing countries rate of saving is very low and due to this, rate of investment and rate of growth is also very low. We can take bank just like a heart in the economic structure and capital provided by it is like blood in it. As long as the blood is in circulation, the organs will remain sound and healthy. If the blood is not provided is not provided to any organ then the organ would become useless. So if the finance is not provided to agriculture sector or to industrial sector, it will be destroyed. Loan facility provided by bank works as an incentive to the producer to increase production. Banks provide transfer of payment facility, which is cheaper, quicker and safe. Many difficulties in the international payment have been overcome and volume of transactions has been increased. These facilities are very much helpful for the development of trade and commerce.
Before independence, the financial sector was in the hands of foreign banks some of them were British by origin. The oldest bank operating from 1883 in this part of the world was the Chartered Bank while another bank namely the Grind lays Bank that was also working simultaneously from 1883. In order to expand its business operations, the Grind lays acquired other small banks and merged them into the business of Grind lays. For example, Allied Bank, National Bank of India etc was merge into Grind lays Bank. Among the contemporaries, Imperial bank of India was the largest Indian Bank that had started its operations in 1919 which was discharging the role of a commercial banks as well as the Central Bank for India until an independent Central Bank i.e. Reserve Bank of India was establish in 1935. However, since the Imperial Bank had the largest network of its branches all over India, it continued to play its role as a subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of India. In the Muslim majority, areas, which were later on, became the part of Pakistan, small branches of Indian banks were operating and soon after creation of Pakistan, they shifted their branches and headquarters to India. (Banking system in Pakistan by Shujat Ali Baig, 2010)
The banks plays role for economic development. Due to banking system economy is develop because it provides facilities for different people and investors. They provide loan, credit cards, insurance and many more facilities for that reason country economy developed. The banking field is so broader and stable in which so many people get their jobs, which cause in reduce in unemployment in some extent. On the other hand banks provides investment services, investment funds, private banking, custody services, safety services and perform much more other duties which is helpful for the economic development of any country. In Pakistan, agriculture development bank provides loan to the former on low interest rate for promoting the agriculture sector in Pakistan. Pakistan most economy is dependent on the agriculture sector as well as small industries so banks help them in their financial issues. (Role of commercial banks Pakistan, 2010)

It was very difficult for Pakistan to build up its own Banking system immediately after independence without sufficient resources. Following the announcement of the partition plan in June 1947 there was a haste movement on the parts of banks to transfer their funds and accounts across the borders. The banks having their registered offices in Pakistan were transferred to India. In an effort to bring about the collapse of the new state by the persecuting an international policy of withdrawal, the Indian bank offices closed quickly. Those banks, which stayed, were considering the winding up of their business. By 30th June 1948 the number of schedule banks in Pakistan declined from mere scratch. Today there are more than 7000 branches of commercial banks along with an established network of supplementary financial institutions. All this development in the banking sect is the result of untiring efforts of four decades.
12
This was the first phase of development of Pakistans commercial banking system, which consist of the circumstances under which the development of banking was started in the country. INITIAL POSITION OF BANKING IN PAKISTAN There were 19 non-Indian foreign banks in Pakistan at the time of independence with the status of small branch network, whose policies and operations were controlled by their head offices abroad. These banks were engaged solely in export of corps from Pakistan. There were only two Pakistani banks, the Habib bank, which had transferred its head office from Bombay to Karachi after the announcement of the partition plan, and Australian bank which has been working in Pakistani territories prior to June 1947. The government of Pakistan tried hard to eliminate the banking crises. Banking Companies Ordinance 1947 was promulgated to safe guard the interest of both the bankers and the companys customers. The situation however showed no significant improvements. The imperial bank of India closed down most of its offices in Pakistan, which had been working as the agent of the reserve bank of India was not willing to purchase even token amounts of the government of Pakistan. Securities on the plea that these securities were not marketable. The reserve bank of India was hardly of any help. It refused to help government of Pakistan with advance argument adhoc securities to enable them to make essential disbursements such as salaries and other obligations to add to the difficulties. The Indian government withheld Pakistans share of Rs. 75 crore in cash balances held by her at the time of independence. The foregoing developments clearly brought home the urgency of assuming control and currency in Pakistan and brought to the fore the need to setup a central banking institution to take the place of reserve bank of India. Therefore it was agreed between the government of India and Pakistan to authority of Pakistan from 30th September 1947 to 30th June 1948 In order to make necessary arrangements of the establishment of the central bank of Pakistan a committee was appointed to recommend the necessary steps. Consequently the Governor General of Pakistan and father of the nation Quaid-eAzam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Inaugurated the State Bank of Pakistan on 1 st July 1948. After the State Bank order was promulgated on 12 th May 1948. When it assumed full control of banking and currency in Pakistan the first important task before the SBP was to issue of currency notes and withdrawal of reserve bank of India, which had been in circulating in Pakistan so far.
The banking reforms turned out to be a transitional and temporary step and hardly after 18 months had the government nationalized the banking system. Thus through the Nationalization Bank Act 1974, SBP and all commercial banks incorporated in Pakistan and carrying on business in or outside the country were brought under the government ownership with effect from January 1974. The ownership and management of all Pakistan banks stood transferred and rested in the federal government. The shareholders were provided compensation in the form of federal government bonds redeemable at par any time within a period of fifteen years. The amount of compensation was equal to the break up value of the shares in case of commercial banks. For the State Bank shares the amount of compensation was estimated on the basis of average of the clearing quotations during the six working days preceding nationalization. The chairman, director and chief executives of various banks were remove from their offices other than those appointed by the federal government and the state bank. The central board of banks, managing committees and similar other bodies were dissolved. A Pakistani banking counsel was established for nationalized commercial banks to co-ordinate their activities. As a result of merger of banks the following five major banking companies were formed: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. National Bank of Pakistan Habib Bank Limited United Bank Limited Muslim commercial Bank Limited Allied Bank of Pakistan

In 1977 the Bhutto government was toppled. The martial law government planned to reform the banking sector in a novel way. The overall policy was to Islamize the economy and the banking system, being based on interest was an important target of the new policy. The most preferred form of Islamic bank financing profit and loss sharing would require banks to receive deposit without guaranteeing any return. The Islamic bank has to acquire a high degree of confidence of the saver to make him deposit his money with them. Not even the return of the principle amount if guaranteed. The Islamic bank cannot finance the project of an investor merely on the furnishing of collateral. The bank will have to be a partner in the project. This will require to careful security of the project and the assessment of risk involved because profits are the function of the amount of risk in the project. Honesty and trust form both sides of the market are more important to the system of Islamic Banking.

It has redefined its role and has moved from a public sector organization into a modern commercial bank. The Banks services are available to individuals, corporate entities and government. In todays competitive business environment, NBP needed to redefine its role and shed the public sector bank image, for a modern commercial bank.

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 then East Pakistan and directed its resources in financing of jute crop. The Banks Karachi and Lahore offices were subsequently opened in December 1949.
State bank of Pakistan after its formation demanded from the Indian Reserve Bank the assets against the Indian currency retired from Pakistan territory. Government of India refused to hand over the assets worth about five hundred million rupees. The dispute is still unsettled and these assets are still not delivered to Pakistan. Until June 1950, the Bank was engaged exclusively on jute operation. Thereafter, it was felt that it could expand its business to include other commodities as well. Bank took a big stride in 1952, when it replaced the Imperial Bank of India, as an agent of State Bank of Pakistan.

Departments OF NBP
This is the practical portion of my report and here I will explain different departments of NBP and how these departments work. Following are the main department of National Bank of Pakistan.
DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT ADVANCES DEPARTMENT CLEARING DEPARTMENT BILLS DEPARTMENT REMMITTANCE DEPARTMENT ACCOUNT DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT

Current deposit Saving bank deposit Profit and loss saving account Fixed deposit Short notice term deposit Foreign currency deposit Cumulative deposit certificate (other)
CURRENT DEPOSIT
In this type of account the client is allowed to deposit or withdraw money as and when he likes. He may, thus, deposit or with draw several times in the day if he likes. Usually the bank allows this and service chargers are deducted by the bank.
This type of account is for those persons who want to make small savings. This type of account is opened with Rs. 500.

CLEARING DEPARTMENT
Every bank acts in two way i.e. 1. Paying Bank 2. Collection Bank Here in theory no legal obligation on a banker to collect cheques, drawn up to other banks for a customer. It is, however, an important function of crossed cheques. A large part of this work is carried out though the bankers clearing house wherever it is established.
CLEARING HOUSE
A clearing house is the place where representatives, of all the banks get together for the purpose of off setting the inter bank indebtedness arising from the transfer of deposits by a customer of a particular bank to another bank.
47
The advantages are manifold. It prevents the cost and waste involved in collection each and every cheque and claim. Which a banker holds against another, across the counter with all the danger of loss in the transit incumbent upon it. Great economy is also achieved in the employment of liquid cash by setting the difference by simpler transfer of credit from one account to another, there by minimizing the necessity of holding large wash balances, clearing house works under the control of State Bank of Pakistan. A banker has no legal obligation to collect cheque drawn upon other banks for the customers, though modern banks have assumed this important function of their own choice. Therefore, it is very important that since they have assumed this function, the banker should be very careful in their performance, otherwise they will face more difficulties. So, if they provide this facility when the cheques are crossed.
3. To collect amounts of cheques drawn on members, sub-members of the local clearing house, sent for collection by those National Bank Limited branches which are not represented the local clearing house.

Work Environment: Work environment was not ideal due to heavy customers visit in a single day. Furniture, light and sitting arrangement was not good for customers and bank employees. Professional Approach: Work specialization and job specification are found very low in banks employees. Business administration qualities and education is at low side. Shortage of Staff: There is shortage of staff in the Bank. Number of customer per employee is very high. Cash department is suffering very badly and facing great deal of over workload. Less use of Technologies: Staff hesitates to use new technologies especially the cash department. Even old employees are not able to operate PCs. Communication Gap: I feel that there is communication gap between top management and workers. They have fewer chances to communicate effectively. Unjustified Appraisal Criteria: No justified appraisal criteria are implemented for annual increase in salary and promotion of staff. It creates un-satisfaction among the employees of the Bank. Undemocratic Decision Making: I observed that sometimes employees are not involved in decision-making process. Manager himself takes decision and orders to make changes.

PEST ANALYSIS
It is very important that an organization considers its environment before beginning the marketing process. In fact, environmental analysis should be continuous and feed all aspects of planning. The organization's marketing environment is made up of: 1. The internal environment e.g. staff (or internal customers), office technology, wages and finance, etc. 2. The micro-environment e.g. our external customers, agents and distributors, suppliers, our competitors, etc. 3. The macro-environment e.g. Political (and legal) forces, Economic forces, Sociocultural forces, and Technological forces. These are known as PEST factors. Political: Privatization policy and deregulation. Impact of subsidized credit affecting and NCBs. Employment practices, Unions, Associations. Political Interference and harassment.
90
Incidents of high taxation on banking industry. Economical: Constraints in mobilization of public savings because of inflation. Staff cost. Operating cost. Bad debts Social & Cultural: Inadequate human resources. Cultural strain to savings. Defaulters lobby. Declining education and work ethics. Inadequate accountability. Adequate empowerment. Technological: Inadequate communication infrastructure. Inadequate computer facilities. Inadequate IT training
91
Although NBP is included in ten top most banks of the world equity as well as assets wise. But for the further improvement in various sectors my recommendations to the bank would be as follows: NBP should become very specific about its competitors, so that it can understand who its competitor is in the first degree and who is in the second degree. closely A research cell should continuously try to gather information about the present action so its competitors and expected future actions. So in this way more effective strategies can be formulated. The performance reward linkage should be making strong as it is said, "A happy employee delivers more than he receives from the organization." The NBP should also try to make its employees happier. There is immediate need, to reconstruct the personnel policies. Selection should be through newspaper advertisements. In this way more intelligent, efficient and qualified staff can be formulated. It is strongly recommended that NBP should go for computerization rather than manual work, which is very slow and time, consuming process. In this age NBP even does not have a partially computerized system where as Then the first-degree competitors should be watched
92
other new competitor banks are now going towards on-line banking services. Govt. should take keen interest to recover its bad debts, which can improve its financial position. In case of giving the loans, it is necessary to check the repute of customer towards loan repayment. Bank shouldnt advance the money to those people who are addict of rescheduling of loans due to their political influences. Instead providing loans to these persons, loans must be advanced to the well-reputed businesses and industries having good record of loan repayment. Along with the officers, the training must also be given to the clerical staff. Because of NBP are running on manual system and the training of its staff directly improving their efficiency of work. Working conditions must be improved for the employees. Bank will definitely get more benefits after some expenditure on the working conditions as it improves efficiency and productivity of the employees. NBP should flourish certain marketing plans to attract the customers by giving them certain incentives and beneficial schemes to the customers as other competitor banks are doing so. There is also a need of proper recruitment and selection program. New young talent should be introduced to inject the new ideas. Deterioration in efficiency is mostly due to promotion without merit. So promotions must be awarded on merit and also when due. Special attention should be given to the behavior of the employees towards the customers, as customer is the most important person for any bank.
93
There are many employees who are working on ad-hoc basis creating dissatisfaction. The deserved should be made permanent employees.
Political influences in the bank should be eliminated. To motivate the employees of the bank, regular bonuses and incentives should be given to them. There must be a friendly environment among all the employees as it enhances the trust and sincerity.

CONCLUSION
The report is all about National Bank of Pakistan, one of the leading banks of Pakistan banking industry. National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) was established under the National Bank of Pakistan Ordinance 1949. The primary objective of NBP was to purchase jute from the growers in the former East Pakistan and also to perform the commercial banking functions in the country. It is a part of State Bank of Pakistan and it is its major strength. It is providing different facilities to its customers. Inside the bank, in branch banking it has Clearing and Collection Department, Government Receipts Processing Department, Account Opening Department, Remittance Department, Customer Services Department Cash Department, Deposit Department, Advances and Credit Department. These are the most common departments exist in almost each branch. It is offering different deposit choices, advances, credits and securities etc for its customers. Its Human Resource is its major strength that is leading this bank in this way but there is much gap to cover yet. The other strengths this bank has are that it is acting as Agent of State Bank of Pakistan, providing Agency Arrangements for different government organizations include WAPDA and PIA, Profitability and a vide coverage throughout Pakistan through its Corporate Branches. And also it has comprehensive range of products it is offering in market. The challenge it is facing are currently the lack of implementation of rules and regulations that may lead to weak organizational culture, old organizational

culture, no regular promotions practices and not much use of IT technology in bank as other are using. There are many workers and employees unions exist in National Bank of Pakistan that use to play organizational politics instead of doing productive work that leads to wastage of time. As analysis shows that NBP is a most growing organization with highest return on capital, largest market share amongst all Pakistani banks and cost to income ratio is the highest in banking sector. But there is further need for improvement to overcome weaknesses and to maintain its position as an Asian Tiger in banking field. As far as my internship and experience is concern, I learnt a lot during my internship because I got practical knowledge before entering in the practical life after completion of my degree. I learn a lot about banking practicing in Pakistan, rules and regulations and different procedures followed by banks, the organizational culture and structure of the bank, National Bank of Pakistan.
