HISTORY OF BANKING
Evolution of Banking
It has not so far been decided as to how the word Bank originated. The explanation of this origin is attributed to the fact that the jews in Lombardy transacted the business of money exchange on branches in the market place and when the business failed, the people destroyed the Bank. Incidentally, the word bankrupt is said to have been evolved from this practice. The opponents of this opinion argue that it was so, then how is that the Italian moneychangers were never called Banchierei in the Middle Ages? Other authorities hold the opinion that the word Bank is derived from the German word back which means joined stock fund. Then Back was Italianize into Bank.

Banking In Pakistan
At the time of independence, there were 631 offices of scheduled banks in Pakistan, of which 487 were located in West Pakistan alone. As a new country without resources it was very difficult for Pakistan to run its own banking system immediately. Therefore, the expert committee recommended that the Reserve Bank of India should continue to function in Pakistan until 30th September 1948, so that problems of time and demand liability, coinage currencies, exchange etc. be settled between India and Pakistan. The nonMuslims started transferring their funds and accounts to India. By the end of June 1948 the number of officers of scheduled banks in Pakistan declined from 631 to 225. There were 19 foreign banks with the status of small branch offices that were engaged solely in export of crop from Pakistan, while there were only two Pakistani institutions, Habib Bank of Pakistan and the Australasia Bank. The customers of the bank are not satisfied with the uncertain condition of banking. Similarly the Reserve Bank of India was not in the favour of Govt. of Pakistan. The Govt. of Pakistan decided to establish a full-fledge central bank. Consequently the Governor-general of Pakistan Quaid-I-Azam inaugurated the State Bank of Pakistan on July 1, 1948. Thus a landmark was made in the history of banking when the state bank of Pakistan assumed full control of banking and currency in Pakistan. The banking structure in Pakistan comprises of the following types. 1) State Bank of Pakistan. 2) Commercial Bank of Pakistan. 3) Saving banks. 4) Co-operative banks 5) Specialized credit institutions. Up to December 31, 1973, there were 14 Pakistan commercial banks that functioned all over the country and in some foreign countries through a

The network of bank branches now covers a very large segment of national economy. The numbers of branches have increased appreciably and there is now on branch of bank for every 3000 heads of population approximately. There is done reasonable growth in deposits from the establishment of Pakistan. Besides this growth, specialised credit and financial institutions have also developed over the years. The Government of Pakistan in the late 90s introducing the need for the privatisation of state owned banks and companies. The private sector has accepted the challenge and most of the banks are privatised today. The State Bank of Pakistan issues the shares of these periodically. Bank employees and other common peoples can also purchase these shares and earn profit. All these commercial banks were nationalized in
January 1, 1974, and were recognized and merged into the following five

Deposit Department
Bank 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 rate of borrowing lending forms their spread or gross profit. Therefore we can rightly state that deposits are the blood of the bank which causes the body of an institution to get to work. These deposits are liability of the bank so from point of view of bank we can refer to them as liabilities. The total deposits of MCB are growing since its inauguration but after privatization there is a sharp incline in over all deposits of the bank. The increase in deposits is also a cause of increase on total number of accounts; bank has progressed in both aspects.

Advances AGAINST PLEDGE stock in trade or products When a cash is granted against the pledge of stock or product, cash credit form is taken, from the certain products or stock, but the actual pledge is created when the stock or finished product are placed under the bank's lock or the document of title are duly endorsed to the bank by the borrower. 2.Hypothecation of stock on Finished Products: The difference between pledge and hypothecation is that under a pledge the borrower's goods are placed in the bank's possession under own lock, whereas, under a hypothecation, they remain in the possession of the borrower or guarantor and are merely charged to the bank under documents signed by them. Even though the documents empower the bank to take possession of the goods hypothecated, but it is possible that the borrower may actually resist any attempt. 3.Mortgages of property: Title deeds of immovable property are accepted by the bank only as collateral security or alternatively as unauthorized security.

POLITICAL AND LEGAL ENVIRONMENT: Banks are strongly affected by the political and legal considerations. This environment is composed of regulatory agencies and government law that influence and limit various organizations and individuals. Mostly these laws create new opportunities for business. Business legislation has following main purposes: To protect banking companies from unfair competition. To protect consumers from unfair business practices adopted by banking companies To protect the interest of the society from unbridled business behavior. ECONOMIC TRENDS: A banking market requires better consumer market in volume alongwith higher borrowing power. The available borrowing power depends on: Consumer income Saving rates Consumption patrons Rates of interest Budget deficit

WEAKNESSES
The majority of people are not well aware about the products of MCB. Therefore it should advertise extensively especially RTC and Master Cards. A behavior has been noted that bank tries to feel at ease with good looking, rich and educated people and the poor looking customers feel some bit strange in the environment of the bank. The bank employees should try to accommodate behaviorally all type of customers. In MCB there is lack of specialized skill because of job rotation policy of human resource department. The bank should concentrate upon increasing its abilities on individual service basis. Mismanagement of time is another big mistake in MCB branches, the bank official time of closing is 5:00 pm but due to mismanagement of time allocation and work, the staff is normally on their seats till 7:00 or 8:00 clock.

OPPORTUNITIES
As on December 31, 1998, sixty-eight scheduled banks with 9,106 branches are operating in Pakistan. As on this date, total population of Pakistan is 140.03 million. Total number of personal accounts with all scheduled banks as on December 31,1997, are 28.98 million. If we consider the population statistics of working age group as on December 31,1997, it stands to the figure of 96.64 million. Thus we can say those 28% of working age people of Pakistan are having accounts with banks while 72% are unbanked. The need of privatization has made people to switch to banks to satisfy their needs of lending and borrowing. This not only increases the deposits but also the credit business.
THREATS
Changes in government policies have affected the banking business. Still banks have to wait to get permission of state bank. The freezing of foreign currency accounts is a vital example of letting people not to trust on banks. The Competition has become severe by the entrants of so many banks, So to exist one will have to prove himself in its services through excellent management and will have to satisfy its shareholders. Otherwise he will be out the market. The decrease purchasing power of consumer in the current economic situation of the country affecting the business activity speed too much and the result is the low investment from the investors in new projects can create problem for the bank because it is working a lot in trade.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Internship Report
From the Quantum of the profit and its financial data it can be easily judged that after privatization, MCB BANK LIMITED is performing remarkably well. Its deposits are growing day by day and so its profitability. The controlling body is responsible for the productive performance of the Bank. Following are my observation and suggestion to improve the efficiency for the development of the economy. A big portion of the home remittance is sent by Pakistan working capital through MCB Bank Limited Limited. As we know a big portion of this amount is wasted purchasing of luxuries. The people motivated to save money by offering the deposit through various investment schemes. The rate of profit should increase 1% or 2% than other banks and it would be profitable step for bank. There is a criticism on the banking management that the salaries of the employees are decreasing in every succeeding year. And I think this will shake the confidence and working habit of the employees. There is another recommendation about the bank that there is no proper timing of the bank and there is made an unnecessary delay in the banking transactions, which might not be a good sign for the bank from future prosperity point of view. Staff turnover particularly of trained staff result in financial and other losses. The amount spent by the bank on employment, induction and training of outgoing officers constitutes to beat till another officer should ready prove this work. The exodus of bank officer in the past has worsened the situation. Most of the bank employees, are sticking to one seat only with the result that they become master of one particular job and loose their grip on other banking operation. In my opinion all the employees should have regular job experience all out-look towards banking. The promotion policy should be adjusted. Refresher Courses for the staff are most important in any international organization. Alt the employees should have these courses according to their requirement. Foreign experts can also be called for this purpose. Every year some of the employees should be sent for training to other countries and employees from other branches should be brought here.

Some more reading material should be provided. The purpose should be to educate the employees with the advance studies in their field. The employee should be provided the opportunities to attend and participate in seminars and lectures on banking. Bank should give some more incentive to its employees in order to remove the conflict between lower and higher officers and should try to improve the working condition of the bank. As such system should be designed that every employee who has some problems with his officers can communicate it to the higher management and some steps must be taken to improve that. Recruitments should be strictly on merit basis and induction should be after proper and extensive training. Old and lazy staff should be replaced by young, qualified and energetic staff. Foreign branches should be opened in order to capture the international market and to earn international repute for the bank. Working environment, equipment, furniture and staff dressing should be according to the modern banking style. Proper attention should be paid to upgrade customer services. Bank should adopt the global organizational banking structure to meet the international standards of banking sector.
CONCLUSION
It is evident from this report and the financial statements of MCB that it is making progress by leaps and bounds. The profits of MCB have grown considerably during the last few years and this trend is expected to continue into the future.

Therefore, we conclude that MCB has a very prosperous present and future, which assures the shareholders of wealth maximization. Side by side of it, I think that if bank would be able to cover and control on the above mentioned recommendations; then it would be in such a situation that will really lead it towards the road of prosperity, development and integrity. And with the above mentioned sentences; I think there is fault on part of the customers also and in order to make the proper working of the bank the customers should also cooperate with the bank which will be really a good, ambitious and diligent condition for the bank. And then bank will be really in such a situation and position to compete its competitors in the country as well as on international level.
