C o m p a r a t i ve An a l ys i s
Banking Industry
Banking is one of the most sensitive businesses all over the world. Banks play very
important role in the economy of a country and Pakistan is no exemption. Banks are
custodian to the assets of the general masses. The banking sector plays a significant
role in a contemporary world of money and economy. It influences and facilitates many
different but integrated economic activities like resources mobilization, poverty
elimination, production and distribution of public finance. It is purchase of car or building
of a home, banks are always there to provide the services. It is playground or any
educational or healthy societal activities the money of banks nurtures them. It is an
industrial project or agricultural development of the country the sponsor-ship of banks is
very much involved. Banks play very positive and important role in the overall economic
development of the country.
Pakistan has a well-developed banking system, which consists of a wide variety of
institutions ranging from a central bank to commercial banks and to specialized
agencies to cater for special requirements of specific sectors. The country started
without any worthwhile banking network in 1947 but witnessed phenomenal growth in
the first two decades. By 1970, it had acquired a flourishing banking sector.
Comparison with other banks
Nationalization of banks in the seventies was a major upset to domestic banking
industry of the country, which changed the whole complexion of the banking industry.
With irrational decision at the top all the commercial banks were made subservient to
the political leadership and the bureaucracy. Specialized banking institutions were
already working in the public sector. The new accountability paradigm changed the
business ethics in the banking industry, and with this change started the disaster.
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology Lahore

The Bank of Punjab

Nationalization of banking industry was accompanied by violent changes in the external


value of rupee. The commercial banks thus lost their assets management equilibrium,
initiative and growth momentum. They ceased to be a business concern and became
big bureaucracies. This was accompanied by indiscreet loaning under political pressure.
They suffered from three terminal diseases: non-performing loans; higher intermediation
cost.
The era of nineties was the climax of privatization, deregulation and restructuring in the
domestic banking industry and financial institutions. The Muslim Commercial Bank was
the first bank to privatize. Followed by Allied Bank limited, United Bank Limited and now
the Habib Bank Limited have been privatized. One thing good for that particular period
was the recruitment of fresh officers in the domestic banking industry through wellorganized policies of Banking Council. With the decay of Banking Council there was
flood of insincere, nonprofessional, incompetent candidates directly appointed/ recruited
in all the domestic banks of the country.

The government of Pakistan permitted small private sector banks to operate, which
indulged in doubtful policies to promote business. The public sector banking, which
constituted the backbone, thus continued to suffer because of their approach, size and
carried over liabilities. Mehran Bank is the prime example of that kind of lax banking in
the country, which ultimately merged into National bank of Pakistan i.e. last resort of
domestic banking industry.

In the meanwhile, western banks started entering into the business. They, with the
support of ruling elite, concentrated on the big business, leaving the routine business to
the local banks. This reduced the profitability of the local banks.

Current Financial position of The Bank of Punjab


Directors Report
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present accounts of the Bank of
Punjab for the half year ended June 30, 2005.
During six months period under review, Pakistans economy has gained significant
momentum with broad based economic growth in all sectors, which can be attributed to
consistent application of wide-ranging structural reforms, prudent macro economic
policies, confidence in private sector and financial discipline. Resultantly, the country
economic growth rate has exceeded eight percent and the economy has positioned
itself as the second fastest growing economy in Asia.

New Knowledge Acquired


As this was my first experience in any bank, so all working of bank was new for me.
About account opening
Account opening is a simple process but it becomes complicated in case of corporate
accounts. For individual or joint account, account opens on following simple requirements.

Copy of national ID card

Written evidence of what applicant is doing

An introducer (a person who already holds account in the bank) for account
opening.

Requirement for company account are as follows

Written request on the letterhead of company from an authorized person to


open companys account

Chief executive, company secretary and director along with common seal
must sign resolution

Attested CNIC copies of all directors

Form 29 attested from registrar of joint stock companies

Memorandum and articles of association.

Certificate of incorporation

Certificate of commencement of business only in case of public limited


company

After the completion of these requirements, bank will open the account and sends letter of
thanks to its customer. When account holder comes with letter of thanks bank will issue
chequebook to account holder. If chequebook is lost the account holder has to give written

application for the stop payment of cheques of that chequebook and fill a form for issuance
of new chequebook.
Remittance
Banks offers different types remittance having different specification. These remittances are
demand draft, for out station payment. Mail transfer is to transfer the amount by mail in any
account of same bank. Telegraphic transfer is same like the MT but here fax machine is use
instead of mail. Pay order is used for intercity payment. This is main difference between
Demand Draft and Pay Order. Call deposit receipt is used in case of tender or auction.
CLEARING
Clearing is used to pay or receive payments to other banks. There are 2 types of clearing

Inward clearing

Outward clearing

Inward clearing
Cheques of our branch that are deposited at other banks are brought to us by NIFT. This is
called inward clearing. In inward clearing we DEBIT a/c of our a/c holder and CREDIT other
branch.
Outward clearing

certain factors such as words and figure difference, date of cheque etc.3 stamps are
stamped in these cheques

CHEQUE RETURN IN OUTWARD CLEARING


If cheque is returned in outward clearing we make an entry of the returned cheque in the
register and give it back to our customer after having his signatures in the register.
CHEQUE RETURN IN INWARD CLEARING
If the cheque is returned in inward clearing, we fine our a/c holder Rs 100 as a penalty and
also make an entry in the register.
INTER BRANCH CREDIT TRANSACTION (IBC)
IBC advice is made for both inward and outward clearing.

Cash department perform the responsibilities to deal with cash, transfer amounts from one
account to other accounts and calculate the profit for different types of accounts. When
cheque is presented to bank, officer match the word and figure of cheque. If words and
figure is correct then officer verify the signature and check the date. A cheque can be
converted in to cash within six month. After six month cheque expires. For PLS account
bank calculate the profit on the minimum balance in account from 6 th to 29th of the month.
Bank pays this profit after six moth or transfer in account of account holder after six month.
For corporate account profit is calculated on daily basis. Profit is credited after a moth in the
CPA account. Formula used to calculate the profit is
Profit = Capital X days X (%)
365 X 100

FOREIGN TRADE
Foreign trade is divided in two parts, Import and Export
Imports

COMSATS Institute of Information Technology Lahore

The Bank of Punjab

61

For import any product, importer first contact with foreign exporter. There are three
possibilities for trade, one is the advance payment of the imported product, second is
contract between two parties and is the LC, when both parties importer do not rely on
foreign exporter. Advance payment and contact is simple payment through bank, but in LC
bank guarantee about the foreign exporter. To open LC importer request for issuance of LC
on legal required paper with Performa invoice, I forms and insurance of the product.
Importer also gives detail of condition of LC. After this request bank will send LC through
swift. After receiving LC documents, foreign importer ships the product and sends the bill of
lading or AWB to local bank. Bank checks the LC and bill of lading. If there is any
discrepancy, bank takes the acceptance from importer about the discrepancies. To clear the
imported product from port, importer takes the bill of lading from bank after the payment of
LC. If importer cannot pay the amount there is two facilities from bank, FIM and FATR. In
FIM the imported product remain in the custody of bank. Importer has facility to realize the
quantity of product as after payment of that quantity. FATR facility is normally for 120 days.
This facility is for the reliable customers.

In this facility customer release the whole

imported product.
Export
Export is just like imports but here we act as exporter bank. In export we perform all that
activity which foreign banks perform in case of import. Exporter provides the documents
like bill of exchange, AWB, certificate of origin, packing list and all other document required
in contract or LC with E form. Bank sends these documents to foreign bank. On receiving
these documents, bank pays the amount according to conditions in LC. Or Contact. In
export bank provides the refinancing and purchasing facility to customers. When customer
has relied on foreign importers then bank take risk and purchase the exports after
shipment. Exporter receives payment from bank, now whole risk of this trade is converted
to bank. This facility is called negotiation or purchasing. In refinancing bank finance the
local exporter according to prudential regulation of state bank.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Last five year performance of The Bank of Punjab shows that the bank of Punjab is
increasing its profitability and its deposits. Being the bank of government, the bank of
Punjab has major government accounts.

The bank of Punjab should try to maintain the accounts of diversified


companies. This will reduce the risk of government policies

To manage its all branches the bank of Punjab should establish the intranet
system.

To attract new customer bank should offer value added services

The Bank of Punjab should increase the line of product to attract the new
clients.

Those activities, which a one person can perform, should be integrated to


save time.

The bank should revise its pay structure and compensation plan according to
the market, in view to decrease the turn over rate

CONCLUSION
The bank of Punjab is the one the best bank in local banking sector. Its growth rate is
highest among all local banks. There are some flaws like the small product range, have
two are three major GOVT accounts and like others. The bank of Punjab has potential to
become top ranking bank in Pakistan banking industry.
My basic purpose of this internship is to learn about the working of bank. During my
internship I got knowledge about general banking, foreign exchange and advances. Staff
member of bank of Punjab are cooperative with me and really help me to achieve my
objective.
