function in the economy.

it always showed the lowest ratio over the whole period except C NA in 2005. It proved its efficiency over its competitors. Besides, it has introduced innovative services like Credit Card, Micro Credit etc. PBL is expanding and strengthening its Marketing Department day by day. Though CNA is operating through only three branches in Bangladesh, by dint of practicing marketoriented operations, it is earning more market share eventually. In deposit per branch growth rate it held first position in 2006. In manpower expansion growth rate it had highest ratio in 2006 which also reflected in its employee per branch in 2006 and employee per branch growth rate in 2004, 2005 and 2006. In deposit position IBBL had an all time unbeaten position where it held first position in import and remittance in 2006. But it was failed to show the required results in other sectors. It happened due to IBBL is yet to develop an organized Marketing Department. It has many deposit & investment schemes but it cant market most of them successfully because of not having market oriented operational drive. In consideration of total deposit and investment amount, IBBL stands first in deposit and second in investment. But as far as growth rate of deposit & investment are concerned, IBBL never stood first among eight selected banks. Most of the deposit amounts are cost bearing which is responsible for earning less profit. On the other hand, SCB, NBL & PBL have huge amount of cost free funds. They have been able to attract depositors of cost free funds by dint of their wellfurnished working environment, automation in all operations and above all with planning and implementing marketing techniques. NBL paid the highest dividend in 2006. In order to achieve sustainable growth and development, NBL needs to be market-oriented. A self-sufficient Marketing Department should be established. This Department will analyze market situations, current changes in customers demand and recommend strategies to design and launch innovative services. In addition to this, working environment needs to be developed and motivation level of employees needs to be improved. Computerization and the latest communicational method should be applied in all areas of operations. NBL needs to increase expenditure for promotional purposes. It can use Publicity, Personal Selling & Mail Marketing as media to promote its services as these have been found most effective.
