Critical Analysis
Bank Alfalah Islamic Banking Division sets its goals according to its mission and vision statement. My observations are following:

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Strong brand recognition Strong allocation potential Recognized market existence Focused business strategy Strong credit rating Large (over 5 million accounts) A full service bank

SWOT Analysis
STRENGTHS:
Bank Alfalah Islamic Banking division is financially very strong bank. Following are some of the strengths of the Bank. Alfalah bank is applying the TQM in each of its branch, which is the great achievement. No other bank has this department Bank Alfalah Islamic is financially strong and has a huge deposit reserve.

WEAKNESSES:

Lack of branch network as compared to other Islamic banks in Pakistan More job rotation It is a step behind in using new technology (MIS) as compared to other banks. Most of the employees are overloaded with work slow in the introduction of new services as compare to other Islamic banks in Pakistan i.e. free internet services.

SWOT Analysis
OPPORTUNITIES:
Bank can extend its network in other cities of Pakistan. profitability can be increased by making use of new technology (MIS) Ability to introduce new products and services because of the huge capital reserve It can adopt E-banking and provide credit card facility to its customers. Good financial position creating a good reputation for future advances and huge deposits

THREATS:

In certain era of Pakistan people emphasizes more on Islamic mode of banking. Bank is facing intense competition from other Islamic Banks working in Pakistan Bank is performing very well in the presence of unstable political and economic situation but this uncertainty is a continuous threat for the bank SWOT analysis shows that Bank Alfalahs strengths are more than its weakness and it has a chance of availing many opportunities.
