HISTORY OF BANKING IN PAKISTAN

At the time of independence, commercial banking facilities were provided fairly well
here. There were 487 offices of schedule banks in the territories now constituting Pakistan. An
Expert committee was appointed. The committee recommended that the reserves bank of India
should continue their function in Pakistan until 30 September. 1948, and Pakistan would take
over the management of public debt and exchange control from reserve bank of India on April
1948 and that Indian notes would continue to be legal tender in Pakistan until 30 September
1948. Moreover the banks including those having their registered office in Pakistan transferred
them to India in order to bring a collapse of a new state. By 30 June 1948 the number of the
offices of scheduled banks in Pakistan declined from 487 to only 195.In order to make necessary
arrangement for the assumption of control and expert committee was appointed to recommend
necessary steps, including the required legislation to establish a central bank for Pakistan. The
governor-general of Pakistan Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah inaugurated the State Bank
of Pakistan order was promulgated on May 12, 1948. The first Pakistani notes were issued in
October 1948 in the State Bank of Pakistan withdrew the reserves Bank of India notes of the
value of Rs. 125.02 crores with the help the Pakistan notes.
On 1st January, 1947 all Pakistani banks were nationalized through Nationalization Act
1974. Under this law all Pakistani Banks become a pubic property. All small banks were merged
in bigger banks to create five major Pakistani banks. These banks were to control by Pakistani
Banking Council. There are still controversies about this act of Govt. as whether it contributed in
success of failure of banks. However the major changes after Nationalization were as follows:
 Working of banks was extended to under-developed areas.
 Market expansion for credit and deposits.
 Decrease in service level of bank officers.
 Decrease in profitability as well.

In 1990 the govt. decided to denationalize all the nationalized institutions. Same was also
suggested in banking sector. For this purpose, amendments were made to Nationalization Act
1974 and two nationalized banks were privatized. Along with this a permission to open banks in
private sector was also granted. The rules regarding establishment of new banks and for
incoming foreign banks were also relaxed. The two privatized banks are: MCB taken up by a

7
University of Sargodha

private group in April, 1991 & ABL taken up by its own employees in September, 1991. After
these changes a large number of private and foreign banks started their operation in Pakistan
Now, 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.

Pakistan's banking sector has remained remarkably strong and resilient during the world
financial crisis in 2008–09, a feature which has served to attract a substantial amount of FDI in
the sector. Stress tests conducted on June 2008 data indicate that the large banks are relatively
robust, with the medium and small-sized banks positioning themselves in niche markets.
Banking sector turned profitable in 2002. Their profits continued to rise for the next five years
and peaked to Rs 84.1 ($1.1 billion) billion in 2006.

During the fiscal year of 2008-2009, total assets of all the scheduled banks increased by Rs
574.7 billion. Total assets grew by 6.4 percent from Rs 8861 billion in June 2008 to Rs 9436
billion in June 2009. During the fiscal year of 2008-09, there was also an increase of Rs 248
billion in the net advances of the scheduled banks. Net advances grew by 8.67 percent from Rs
2873 billion in June 2008 to Rs 3128 billion in June 2009.

Commercial Banks:
The banks in any country speeded over with an objective to get the excessive money Form the
public in the form of deposits and providing finance to the investors. These Banks are in the
ground for profit earning motive and in competition with each other. These banks are providing
the basic services to the customers in the form of deposits, Advances, remittances and others.

BRIEF HISTORY OF MCB:


MCB Bank Limited formerly known as Muslim Commercial Bank Limited was
incorporated by the Adamjee Group on July 9, 1947 in Kolkata in Bengal, under the Indian
Companies Act, VII of 1913 as a limited company. But due to changing scenario of the region,
the certificate of incorporation was issued on 17 August, 1948 with a delay of almost 1 year; the
certificate was issued at Chittagong. The first Head office of the company was established at
Dacca and Mr. G.M. Adamjee was appointed its first chairman. It was incorporated with
an authorized capital of Rs. 15 million. The Bank transferred its registered/Head office from
Dhaka to Karachi on August 23, 1956 through a special Resolution.

NATIOINALIZATION:
In January 1974, the government of Pakistan nationalized MCB following the banks
(Nationalization) Act 1974, subsequently, in June 1974, Premier Bank limited merged with
MCB.

PRIVATIZATION:
A wave of economic reforms swept Pakistan in the late 1990’s introducing the need for
privatization of state owned banks and companies in April 1991, MCB because Pakistan’s first
privatized Bank, the government of Pakistan transferred the management of the Bank to Nishat
Group– group of leading industrialists of the country by selling 26% shares of the Bank. With a
view to broaden equity holding the government sold 25% of the paid up capital to the general
public. In terms of agreement between the government of Pakistan and the Nishat Group
additional 24% shares have been purchased by the group making their holding 50%. As of June
2008, the Nishat Group owns a majority stake in the bank. 25% was retained by the government.
Now it is fully privatized.

Mian Mohammad Mansha is the Chairman of the group (and also MCB) and has
played instrumental role in its success. In recognition of Mr. Mansha’s contribution, the
Government of Pakistan has conferred him with "Sitara-e-Imtiaz", one of the most prestigious
civil awards of the country.

MCB is Pakistan’s fourth largest bank by assets having an asset base of US$6.7 billion,
and the largest by market capitalization having a market capitalization of US$4.1 billion. The

10
University of Sargodha

Bank has a customer base of approximately 4 million and a nationwide distribution network of
1,026 branches, including 8 Islamic banking branches, and over 300 ATMs, in a market with a
population of 160 million.

PRESENT STATUS
Over the years Muslim Commercial bank fostered strong bonds with its customers. MCB
understands them; their needs. They feel comfortable with MCB; its their bank; it responds to
them; listens to them; partners with them; grows with them. That is why it is one of the leading
commercial banks of the country, providing a wide range of modem banking services. At
present, the banking network consists of over 1000 branches along with – controlling offices
known as Area Head offices and Regional Head offices. These controlling offices are responsible
for the smooth operation of the bank on National & international levels. The entire financial and
operational objectives are achieved with the Human Resources strength over 12000 employees.
The bank is known as the major credit provider, best place of working and paymaster in the
financial (money market) of the country. Over the past few years, MCB's profits have been hit by
the need to increase provisions coverage and restructuring costs associated with the downsizing
of the workforce and branch network, whilst there is some need to boost provisions, these
charges (necessary to bring the bank back into shape) are largely over. It has also slowly
received permission from the SBP to shut down a number of unprofitable branches.
In 1999 EURO MONEY recognized MCB as the best domestic bank in Pakistan. The banking
sector has been worst hit by the external account crisis that engulfed the country following the
nuclear tests. Due to the nature of banks as a medium for debt transactions the country's technical
default and subsequent rating downgrade impacted them the most. Those core concerns are still
not fully alleviated in the view of the investors. The closest that investors have come to positive
expectations regarding external account sustainability and a possible re-rating was back in the
fourth quarter of the year 1999, and this led to MCB climbing to Pakistani rupees 56 per share.
Resumption of the IMF funding and a possible rescheduling of bilateral debt will positively
impact the banking sector and especially MCB.
State Bank of Pakistan continued the process of Banking Reforms, which included strengthen of
Prudential Regulations and focus on recovery of defaulted loans. In 1999 return on Government

11
University of Sargodha

Savings Scheme and Treasury Bills was reduced, which led to a lowering of lending rates,
resulting in erosion of margins for banks but it is likely to give a boost to economic activity.
MCB Rupee travelers Cheques continued to maintain their leadership position in the industry
and sales registered a 45% growth over last year. MCB successfully introduced the Rs.100, 000
denomination cheque countrywide and introduced RTC dialup tele-verification facility from
Lahore city as well.

case of physical payment authorized signature of beneficiary are taken for the proof of amount

It depends on those checks that are cleared inter branch and with in the city. As the
concerned branch receive any type of clearing check first of all physical checking is taken place.
For clearing procedure there should be two days margin. These cheques have their vouchers and
the amount of the cheque and voucher should be identical. Than these cheques are stamped and
noted on receiving sheet as well as feed in to the computerized system.

OUTWARD CLEANING
It depends on those cheques that are cleared out side the city. For outward clearing
cheques are send because the home branch has there accounts but checks are of other banks.
Contras of these cheques are vouchers that are recorded in the home branch.

ISSUANCE OF CHEQUE BOOKS


Any account holder that has opened the account he/she could credit his/her account and
for this purpose there should be a cheque book, so he/she could be able to credit the needed
amount whatever he/she wishes. For the issuance of the cheque book a person is advised to fill a
requisite slip with his/her full names and the account number with two verified signatures. These
signatures are checked and then another requisite slip prepared by the bank staff send to the
NIFT, and it issues the printed cheque books after completion of the procedure in two or three
days.
Account holder can take it by singing on the issuance register or if the absence of the
account holder another person could also take the cheque book only if he/she has authorized
signature of the account holder. When the cheque books are issued they are feed in the computer
system from the requisite slip so when the cheques are given for the credit/transfer of amount

cheques be claimed.

by the given percentage from the head office at the payment time. If the customer fails to
complete the duration of seven days or thirty days then no profit is given. If any amount is
outstanding, only in case of automatic continuity, then the profit is calculated for the whole

COMMENTS

Vertical analysis of Balance Sheet:

 Cash is constantly decreasing from year 2007 to 2009; it shows that the liquidity position of the
bank is going to be weak, so it is alarming sign for the bank. Therefore bank should take
necessary steps according to the position.
 The with the other is constant form 2007 to 2009.
 Increase in money at call and short notice, it means that customers of bank are very punctual in
making payments. Therefore it is good sign for the bank.
 In the field of investment there is increasing trend with the passage of time. It is common term
of finance” more investment more return.
 As we know that main source of profit of a bank is the difference between the percentages of
interest, Banks pay less rate of interest than receiving the interest from the customers. In this

37
University of Sargodha

case advance to customers are high in 2007 & 2008 but it decrease in 2002. It means that MCB
is not running very well.

LIABILITIES

 There is increasing trend in deposits and other accounts which shows the credibility of the
bank.
 Borrowing is decreasing in 2008 but there is increasing trend in the year 2009. Although it is
seeing that bank’s borrowing is increasing with the passage of time which is not a good sign but
there is a positive thing in this behalf, usually banks borrow money at that time when they
would have to give it for earning more profit, I think the MCB BANK LTD. doing the same thing
for increasing its profits.
 Bills payable increase in 2008 & 2009 it is negative sign.

Vertical Analysis of Income Statement:

INCOME

 Interest earned Increase which is a Positive sign.


 As we know that banks provide many facilities other than money lending and borrowing. Banks
receive fee, commission etc. for these services. Therefore fee and commission income are
decreasing which is not a favorable signs.
EXPENSES
 Return on deposit increase which decreases the profit.
 Administration expenses are increased but no alarming rate.

COMMENTS on HORIZONTAL ANALYSIS

INCOME

 Interest income increase with great proportion with is favorable. It means that interest
received by the bank is increasing with the passage of time. It is not good for a banking
company.
 As we all know that banks provide many services for their customers and also act as a
agent of the customer. The banks receive fee and commission after their services; it is a
main source of bank to receive fee and commission from their customers. In case bank is
taking more fees as compared to previous years. This is good for the bank.

EXPENSE

 Return on deposit decreases which shows good sign and it is due to decrease in return
rate. Admin and diminution and provision against non performing loan increasing turned
that is favorable.
 Bad debts increased with huge amount not positive sign.

 Profit before taxation has increased but not with greater proportion. Tax increases which
are not bad because it is interrelated with profit, if profit increased, tax also increase

the creditors.

CONCLUSION
With Cooperation of all branch members, I have been able to learn and experience many new
things related to the banking sector and the banks workings. I am able to handle the public with
respect to many different workings on many different instances and also in account opening for
customers and can handle many other tasks as well.

Finally I concluded that MCB is a good organization for a person for his long term career
workings. Overall working and environment of the bank is very comfortable and the staff is very
helpful and respectful of each other and it still maintains a professional environment.
Management of the bank is very strong.

Employees of MCB Fatimah Jinnah Road branch, Sargodha work more than their working hours
and all the workings take place in a very friendly atmosphere that does not induce pressure on
the person working there. It also shows their loyalty and commitment to the organization. This
branch of MCB relatively small and has climbed its way up very quickly and all that only
because of the employee’s efforts and consideration for each other

Understanding and the effective management of the human resources is the most difficult
challenge faced not only by the bank but by all the organizations. Even though the people have
been sacrificed in the new organizational developments, it is becoming clear that the true lasting
competitive advantage comes through human resources and how they are managed. MCB seems
to not focusing on this highly critical issue as the job satisfaction level of the employees working
at MCB, was quite low.
The attitude of the bankers with all of their customers is not the same, they pay more attention
and good service to some of the customers and neglect a major portion of them. Some of the
customers approach to the bank officials and get their work done before others; it is not a good
practice

There are so many customers who don’t know how to fill cheques, pay-in-slip, application form,
etc. They waste a lot of time of the bank stall.

RECOMMENDATIONS
After doing a deep study and witnessing everything that goes on in a branch, I would then like to
make the recommendations that;
First of all, the management needs to overlook the major problems that the organization is
currently facing and then develop strategies to eradicate them. Some of the suggestions that I
would like to give at the end are:
Promotion and Mass Media Publicity
MCB Bank can improve its Marketing strategies to acquire more promotion and mass media
publicity by the use of effective channels of promotions like TV, Newspaper Advertisements. It
can also improve its magazine publication that it releases each month.
Better Reward System
Better reward system is one of the most important requirements in order to reduce the problem of
Employee retention and improve Employee motivation.
Continuous Training Of Employees
There is lack of proper and continuous training of employees that needs to be solved.

 Creation of enhanced performance appraisal system.


 Proper use of stationary.
 Implementation of enhanced Marketing system.

Salary Packages

Improvement should be made in the salary package of the employees as it is comparatively less
when compared to the other operating banks in Pakistan

Staff Member
In branch only two employees in cash counter and it must be increased to four person for proper
handling of cash because there is heavy load work.
SYMBOL SYSTEM
To make the SYMBOL system more efficient and make sure its connectivity all the time in order
to provides more convenience to customers.
