Preface
In Holly Quran Allah says 'man Iinds nothing but Ior what he struggles ' Man is
always erroneous. Struggle is only thing a man can do. Endeavors are in our hands but
results are always in the hands oI great Lord.
Being a student oI M.B.A (Einance) the task oI this internship report on the Bank
oI Punjab was really a struggle demanding deed. The eIIort and struggle to my extent
which we could make I done it, But as said 'Results let`s see what comes Irom it.
Considering in mind the importance oI Services Sector plays a vital role in the
growth and development oI our country`s economy, I decided to choose the organization
(Bank OI Punjab) related to services sector.
Role oI banking sector in services industry is known to every one. So The Bank oI
Punjab is an organization which is Iinalized as my concerned organization because this is
mainly perIorming the lot oI services in all over the Pakistan.
As this was my Iirst ever practical experience. As I started the work in a state that
I am ponder how to start it but now when I am writing these lines by the 'Grace oI God
My Iinal report is Iinalized.
The little incidents which took place during the preparation oI this report are now
part oI my liIe memories.

institutionalized system, which is the major vehicle not only Ior mobilization oI
resources to Iinance trade, agriculture, and industry but also Ior the eIIective
conduct oI monetary policy.
The emergence oI new bank on the national scene in the early 1990s has done two
important services to the nation.
The saving base oI the economy has eIIectively enlarged and hence the
investment opportunities have increased.

GENERAL BANKING OF THE BANK OF PUN1AB
DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT
In modern times very Iew business enterprises are carried out solely with the
capital oI the owners. Borrowing Iunds Irom diIIerent sources has becomes an essential
Ieature oI today business enterprise. But in the case oI a entire banking system is based
on it. The borrowed capital oI the bank is much greater then their own capital. Banks
borrowing is mostly in the Iorm oI deposits.
These deposits are lent out to diIIerent parties. The larger the diIIerence between
the rate at which the deposits are borrowed and the rate at which they is lent out the
greater oI the proIit margin oI the bank. Eurthermore, the larger the deposit the larger will
be the Iunds available Ior employment; larger the Iunds lent out the greater will be the
proIit oI the bank.
To receive the deposit is the basic Iunction oI all commercial banks. The bank
does not receive these deposits Ior save keeping purpose only, but they accept deposits as
debts. When banks receive deposit Irom a customer, the relationship oI a debtor and
creditor is established where by the customer become the creditor and the bank a debtor.
When the bank receives amount oI deposit as a debtor, it becomes the owner oI it. It may,
thereIore use it as deems appropriate. But there is an implicit agreement that the amount
owned would be paid back by the bank to the depositor aIter a speciIied period.

PLS saving accounts can be opened with the minimum sum oI Rs. 100 and PLS-
TDR account can be opened Ior a sum oI Rs. 1000 or above. ProIit is paid on both types
oI the PLS account on halI yearly basis.
Under PLS saving account the depositor undertakes to share proIit or loss on the deposits
earned or sustained by the bank. Secondly the bank is at the liberty to invest the Iunds oI
the deposits in any avenue, it deems Iit. The PLS deposits are invested in non-interested
channels.

ACCOUNT OPENING PROCEDURE
The general banking department perIorms various Iunctions among them the Iirst
and most important Iunction is Account Opening. The bank reserves the right to open
any account, which in its opinion is suitable as a customer. The process oI
opening an account is very simple and any body that would like to open his account could
do it easily without any diIIiculty.
The person would like to open his account is required to meet with the manager or
second oIIicer, who will give him an Application Iorm speciIically used Ior account
opening. Along with the Iorm a card Ior specimen signature is also supplied to the
customer. Manager has every right not to accept this contract iI he is not satisIied with
the details provided by the customer. But in case the contract is acceptable to both, the
next step is oIIicial account opening.
This begins with the Account Opening Register which can be thought as a
customer`s master Iile. The manager records the necessary details into this register5 and
allots an 'Account Number Irom this account opening register. This register is
maintained Ior each type oI accounts and the account numbers are allotted serially. AIter

a 'Clean Running Einance. The customer is in advantageous position in running Iinance
because he has to pay the mark-up only the balance outstanding against him on daily
product basis.

When the property in goods is in charged as the security Ior a loan
Irom the bank but the ownership and the possession is leIt with the
borrower, the
goods are said to be hypothecated. The essence oI the hypothecation is that
neither the property in the goods nor the possession oI them passes to the

Availability oI adequate Ilows oI credit Ior industry and agriculture are a sine qua non Ior
the growth and development oI an economy. This acquires added importance when
agriculture is the mainstay oI the economy as also the sector where the bulk oI the poor
are concentrated. Growth and productivity in Pakistan's agriculture has slowed down in
recent years and is, thereIore, oI serious concern given its importance Ior the economic
prosperity oI the country. Apart Irom various other weaknesses in
the inIrastructural support oI the agricultural sector, inadequacy and lack oI eIIicacy oI
credit, Ilows to support agriculture related activities has been a major constraining Iactor.
Agriculture is the largest sector oI the economy. It contributes 25 percent to GDP,
provides raw materials to 80 percent oI industry and employment to over 50 percent oI
the population. This is a sector that has the shortest gestation period Ior
investments and, thereIore, a remarkable capacity to bring about a turn around in the
economy. This important sector in Pakistan is suIIering Irom a number oI maladies and is
consequently witnessing stagnation in productivity.
Due to policy and administrative exigencies, the savings in the agriculture sector remain
low and, thereIore, the sector has perpetually remained capital starved. The pricing oI
input and output in agriculture over the years has Iorced the majority oI Iarmers in
Pakistan to plough back their incomes into agriculture and non-institutional credit, and
has more oIten than not served to sap their potential earnings. Needless to say, that
shortage oI savings and lack oI availability oI capital is one oI the major reasons Ior
The Bank of Punjab

poverty in the country. The agricultural and rural sectors in Pakistan in general and in
Punjab in particular are, thereIore, suIIering Irom severe under-development. Under a
desirable development model, Punjab can:
Increase agricultural production to meet the country's requirement oI essential Ioods
items and industrial raw materials.
Develop agro-based industry in the rural sector Ior economic value addition;
Generate additional employment opportunities in rural as well as adjacent small
towns/cities
Control massive migration to the urban centers that in turn is causing a number oI
social, administrative (i.e. law and order) and economic problems Ior the urban areas
Elevate poverty and improve the income generating capacity oI the agri-based

PRICE
"1he amount of money the customers pay for the product of a company".
BOP provides diIIerent products and services to its customers, that have been discussed
in previous section. Pricing oI products means the commission to be paid by the customer
in return oI services provided by the bank. The commission paid Ior the services mainly
includes:
Mark up/ interest
Bank charges
Eees and bank commission etc.
These charges and commissions are prescribed on Schedule oI Bank Charges (SOC) that
keeps on changing time-to-time, and issued by the bank periodically (generally aIter six
months).
There has been a lot oI controversy regarding the price oI banking companies. Some
scholars argue that the mark up received by the bank is rent Ior capital that is used by
others. On the contrary, some call it purely Riba. This however is a very controversial
and sensitive issue and I would like not to give any comment on it.
PROMOTION
"All activities that a company undertakes to communicate and promote its products".
This is an age oI competition. Numerous organizations are providing Iinancial services to
the customer. These days every one is Iacing pressure oI competitors. In this world oI
growing competition, the only way to survive and grow, Ior an organization, in the
market place is the proper marketing and promotion oI its products. Same is the case with
banking companies. There is large number oI Ioreign and local banks working in the
country and it has been noticed that they are emphasizing much on their marketing
strategies. In this scenario, the key Ior a bank to succeed and attract its customers is
adequate promotion oI its products &services. The bank can attract and retain its
customers through:
The most prominent and important way to attract a large number oI customers is the
advertisement oI bank and its products/services. Punjab Bankhas adopted diIIerent
approaches Ior the accomplishment oI this purpose. Eor example, Iormation oI Punjab
Bank Lahore branch is a major step taken by BOP. It not only provides a source oI
recreation to the people but it serves as a major source oI marketing Ior the bank. Due to
Punjab Banl assistance Ior the construction oI Iountain in Liberty Market Square, it is
named as Punjab Bank Square. BOP Square, Ior being situated in such a business and
commercial area has its unusual importance and has resulted into banks promotion.
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 91
Construction oI Gul Barig as main branch Lahore is going to be the revolutionary step Ior
BOP. It would not serve just as a main branch only, but it would also be a great source oI
ever growing marking and promotion oI bank.
BOP issued its own rupee travellers cheques with highest denomination during the course
oI my internship. I have seen some coloured advertisements oI
However, one drawback or shortcoming is that, BOP has Iormulized a lot oI products and
services Ior its customers, even more than other commercial banks, but any advertisement
on electronic media has not been seen. Since, BOP s major competitor Union Bank
Limited has started large media campaign, so keeping in view these threats, Punjab Bank
should emphasize more on its advertisement.
Along with the advertisement, the bank is providing personal services to its clients with
maximum security as other banks provide. Bank also encourages the public relation
policy oI marketing.
Some brochures and promotional material has been printed but it is distributed mainly
through the clients who visit the branch Ior their day-to-day business or through the
customers who come to get inIormation about new schemes launched by the bank.
PLACEMENT
EVERYTHING WE DO IS EOR YOU 39
"1he activities a bank undertakes to make products and services easily available or
accessible to the customers".
Bank oI Punjab objective has been to expand its branch network to meet clients needs.
Bank is well positioned and geographically poised, to cater Ior increased business
demands, Irom its existing potential clientele. During last year under review, BOP
opened 8 new branches and presently it has 23 branches, spread all over Punjab covering
major business centers and principle cities. Bank plans to add more branches to his
growing network in the ensuing years.
At present, BOP has opened all its branches at commercial and business areas or near to
commercial areas so that the customers or clients Iace no problem in reaching the bank.

enjoys a network oI 242 outlets, spread across the country. A network
oI selI-service ATMs supports these outlets.
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 96
WEAKNESSES
Bank is providing credit Iacilities only to the urban areas not too much
attention is paid to the rural areas.
As Pakistan is agriculture country but no special schemes Ior the agri- loans.
Bank is not giving emphasis on the small-scale businesses, which are
large in number in Pakistan.
There is enormous diIIerence between the bank-lending rate and
return on deposits.
The procedure and documentation while sanction loan is thorny, which is
a barrier Ior advances.
Bank gives targets to employees Ior deposits due to this reason they
pay more attention to IulIil these targets to save their jobs. This distracts their
attention Irom their duties.
No job security is there Ior the employees, and no union exits to secure them.
BOP has only agency arrangements with the Ioreign banks, no
branch exists outside the Pakistan, while their main competitors have their
own branch network outside the Pakistan.
To improve the services and to remove the problems oI customer the
bank has no customer complaint department.
Limited locker Iacility is there, which does not IulIil the requirements oI
customer and charges oI lockers are also very high.
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 97
OPPORTUNITIES
Bank has a small branch network so The Bank oI Punjab can increase its
turnover though increase the number oI branches.
Bank has no Ioreign branches so it should open its branches outside the
country especially in U.K, U.S.A and in U.A.E.
Eacilities like Iinancing oI housing should also be oIIered to general
public especially in the urban areas.
In agrarians cities like Rahim Yar Khan there is a potential Ior
giving credit Iacilities to Iarmers.
To increase its advances bank should Iocus small scale industries and
choose one among them and then a special scheme oI lending should be
introduced Ior that particular small scale industry.
THREATS
Law and order situation in Pakistan is Iaulty that is why people are not
conIident to invest anywhere.
The markets rates are now at extremely low levels, with very little chance
oI their going up during the rest oI the year. The low interest rate means
low proIits Ior the banks.
Saving rate in Pakistan is very low i.e.15 as compared to 30 in
China and 40 in Malaysia.
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 98
As the banking procedures are complicated that is why general
public takes interest into other options oI investments like in shares oI
companies and in Term Einance CertiIicates.
Now the world is a global village so competitors may rise Irom
anywhere in the world at anytime.
In near Iuture the world is going to be Iree trade zone so the concept oI "survival oI the
Iittest" will be in action.
AIter the 11 September incident and due to terrorist activities in
Pakistan the economy is moving very slow. It means less investment and as
a result low loan demands.
High rate oI taxes on banking companies.
SBP have a heavy penalty on banks Ior violating the Prudential
Regulation. So it requires greater care while advancing.
Increasing ATM trend among the banks also requires attention oI the
management to this side.

POLITICAL FACTORS
Government policies aIIect the banking sector. Sometimes looking into the
political advantage oI a particular party, the Government declares some measures to their
beneIits like waiver oI short-term agricultural loans, to attract the Iarmer`s votes. By
doing so the proIits oI the bank get aIIected. Various banks in the cooperative sector are
open and run by the politicians. They exploit these banks Ior their beneIits. Sometimes
the government appoints various chairmen oI the banks. Various policies are Iramed by
the SBP looking at the present situation oI the country Ior better control over the banks
FOCUS ON REGULATIONS OF GOVERNMENT
Government aIIects the perIormance oI banking sector most by legislature and
Iraming policy .government through its budget aIIects the banking activities
securitization act has given more power to banking sector against deIaulting borrowers.
MONETARY POLICY
Bank Rate: The Bank Rate has been retained unchanged
Repo Rate It has been reduced under the Liquidity Adjustment Eacility (LAE)
Reverse Repo Rate : It has been reduced under LAE by 25 basis points Irom 3.5 to
3.25 with immediate eIIect. RBI has retained the option to conduct overnight or longer
term repo/reverse repo under the LAE depending on market conditions and other relevant
Iactors.
FDI LIMIT
The move to increase Eoreign Direct Investment EDI limits to 49 percent Irom 20
percent during the Iirst quarter oI this Iiscal came as a welcome announcement to Ioreign
players wanting to get a Ioot hold in the Indian Markets by investing in willing Indian
partners who are starved oI net
worth to meet CAR norms. Ceiling Ior EII investment in companies was also increased
Irom 24.0 percent to 49.0 percent and have been included within the ambit oI EDI
investment
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 102
ECONOMIC FACTORS
Banking is as old as authentic history and the modern commercial banking are
traceable to ancient times., banking has existed in one Iorm or the other Irom time to
time. Every year SBP declares its 6 monthly policy and accordingly the various measures
and rates are implemented which has an impact on the banking sector. Also the Union
budget aIIects the banking sector to boost the economy by giving certain concessions or
Iacilities. II in the Budget savings are encouraged, then more deposits will be attracted
towards the banks and in turn they can lend more money to the agricultural sector and
industrial sector, thereIore, booming the economy. II the EDI limits are relaxed, then
more EDI are brought in India through banking channels
GROWING ECONOMY / GDP
It is great news that today the service sector is contributing more than halI oI the
Indian GDP. It takes PAKISTAN one step closer to the developed economies oI the
world. Earlier it was agriculture which mainly contributed to the GDP. The Pakistani
government is still looking up to improve the GDP oI the country and so several steps
have been taken to boost the economy. Policies oI EDI
LOW INTEREST RATES
SBP controls the Interest rate, which is based on several monetary policies.
Recently SBP has reduced the interest rate which stimulates the growth rate oI banking
industry. Call money rates (borrowing & lending) were in the range oI 1.50/3.47 per cent
as compared with 5.25/11.00 per cent on the corresponding date oI last year
INFLATION RATES
InIlation represents a rise in general level oI prices oI goods and services over a
period oI time. It leads to erosion in the purchasing power oI money. Resultantly, each
unit oI currency buys Iewer goods and services
DiIIerent Iiscal and monetary policies have curbed the InIlation rate. To Iight against the
slowdown oI the Economy, Government oI Pakistan & SBP took many Iiscal as well as
monetary actions. Clubbed with Iiscal & monetary actions, decreasing commodity prices,
decreasing crude prices and lowering interest rate, we expect that Indian Economy could
again register a robust growth rate in the year 2009-10
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 103
SAVINGS AND ACCOUNTS
As stated earlier Pakistan continues to remain one oI the high savings economies
among the emerging market economies. Gross Domestic Savings (GDS) oI the Pakistan
economy constitutes savings oI public, private corporate and household sectors. In the
recent period the high growth perIormance oI the Pakistan economy is driven by rise in
savings
AGRICULTURE CREDIT
Agriculture has been the mainstay oI our economy with 70 oI our population
deriving their sustenance Irom it. In the recent past, the sector has recorded a growth oI
about 4 per annum with substantial increase in plan allocations and capital Iormation in
the sector. The target Ior agriculture credit Ilow Ior the year 2009-10 is being set at
Rs.3,25,000 crore. To achieve this, I propose to continue the interest subvention scheme
Ior short term crop loans to Iarmers Ior loans upto Rs.3 lakh per Iarmer at the interest rate
oI 7 per annum. Eor this year, the government shall pay an additional subvention oI 1
as an incentive to those Iarmers who repay their short term crop loans on schedule
SOCIO CULTUREAL FACTORS
Socio culture Iactors also aIIect the business. They show in which people behave
in country. Socio-cultural Iactors like taboos, customs, traditions, tastes, preIerences,
buying and consumption habit oI people, their language, belieIs and values aIIect the
business. Banking industry is also operates under this social environment and it is also
aIIect by this Iactor.
These Iactor are changing continuously people`s liIe style, their behavior, consumption
pattern etc. is changing and also creating opportunities and threat Ior banking industry.
There are some socio-culture Iactors that aIIect banking in India have been analyzed
below.
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 104
SHIFT TOWARDS NUCLEAR FAMILY
Attitude oI people oI Pakistan is changing. Now, younger generation wants to
remain separate Irom their parents aIter they get married. Joint Iamilies are breaking up.
There are many reasons behind that. But banking sector is positively aIIected by this
trend. A Iamily need home consumer durables like Ireeze, washing machine, television,
bike, car, etc. so, they demand Ior these products and borrow Irom banks. Recently there
is boost in housing Iinance and vehicle loans. As they do not have money they go Ior
installments. So, banks satisIy nuclear Iamilies wants.
CHANGE IN LIFE STYLE
LiIe style oI Pakistan is changing rapidly. They are demanding high class
products. They have become more advanced. People want everything car, mobile, etc..
what their Iore Iather had dreamed Ior. Now teenagers also have mobile and vehicle.
Even middle class people also want to have well Iurnished home, television, mobile,
vehicle and this has opened opportunities Ior banking secter to tap this change. Every
thing is available so it has become easy to purchase anything iI you do not have lump
sum.
POPULATION
Increase in population is one oI the important Iactor, which aIIect the private
sector banks. Banks would open their branches aIter looking into the population
demographics oI the area. Percentage oI deposit in any branches oI banks depends upon
the population demographic oI that area. About 70 oI population is below 35 years oI
age. They are in the prime earning stage and this increase the earning oI the banks.
Deposits showed a subdued growth during 2004-05.Income distributions also aIIects the
operations and overall business oI private sector banks.
LITERACY RATE
Literacy rate in Pakistan is very low compared to developed countries. Illiterate
people hesitate to transact with banks. So, this impacts negatively on banks. But there is
positive side oI this as well i.e. illiterate people trust more on banks to deposit their
money; they do not have market inIormation. Opportunities in stocks or mutual Iunds.
So, they look bank as their sole and saIe alternative
The Bank of Punjab

TECHNOLOGICAL FACTORS
TECHNOLOGY IN BANKS
Technology plays a very important role in bank`s internal control mechanisms as
well as services oIIered by them. It has in Iact given new dimensions to the banks as well
as services that they cater to and the banks are enthusiastically adopting new
technological innovations Ior devising new products and services.
ATM
The latest developments in terms oI technology in computer and telecommunication have
encouraged the bankers to change the concept oI branch banking to anywhere banking.
The use oI ATM and Internet banking has allowed anytime, anywhere banking`
Iacilities. Automatic voice recorders now answer simple queries, currency accounting
machines makes the job easier and selI-service counters are now encouraged. Credit card
Iacility has encouraged an era oI cashless society. Today MasterCard and Visa card are
the two most popular cards used world over. The banks have now started issuing
smartcards or debit cards to be used Ior making payments. These are also called as
electronic purse. Some oI the banks have also started home banking through
telecommunication Iacilities and computer technology by using terminals installed at
customers home and they can make the balance inquiry, get the statement oI accounts,
give instructions Ior Iund transIers, etc.
IT SERVICES & MOBILE BANKING
Today banks are also using SMS and Internet as major tool oI promotions and giving
great utility to its customers. Eor example SMS Iunctions through simple text messages
sent Irom your mobile. The messages are then recognized by the bank to provide you
with the required inIormation. All these technological changes have Iorced the bankers to
adopt customer-based approach instead oI product-based approach. Technology
advancement has changed the Iace oI traditional banking systems. Technology
advancement has oIIer 24X7 banking even giving Iaster and secured service.
CORE BANKING SOLUTIONS
It is the buzzword today and every bank is trying to adopt it is the centralize banking
platIorm through which a bank can control its entire operation the adoption oI core
banking solution will help bank to roll out new product and services.

Comparative Financial Statement
Comparative Iinancial statement present Iinancial inIormation Ior the current period and
one or more past periods. In comparative analysis the statements predict about the
movements and trends oI the business with respect to past years, whether there is increase
in the business activities or decrease. It may also help to comments about the Iuture
expectations oI the ways in which the Iinancial and operating perIormance will go.
There are two type oI comparative Iinancial statement analysis.
Horizontal Analysis
Comparison oI two or more years` Iinancial statement is called Horizontal Analysis.
It shows the changes between years both in rupee and percentages Iorm. So in this
way it Iacilitates the analyst to predict about the ways iI the business in which it is
going. It emphasis the proportional relationship between the reporting periods, rather
than with in the reporting period.
In this report I shall use this type oI comparative Iinancial statement analysis to
analyze the perIormance oI The Bank oI Punjab.
Trend Percentage Analysis
Trend percentages state the several years` Iinancial data in terms oI a base year. The base
years equals to 100 with all other stated as some percentage oI this base year. In this
way it predict good and easy way inIormation about the business activities. By simple
looking at these percentages one can see the ways in which the business in going on
whether the business is making perIormance or not.
Comments on Comparative Analysis of 2009-2008
The results that I have perceived Irom the Comparative Analysis oI Balance Sheet and
ProIit & Loss Account oI 2009-08.
From Balance Sheet
* The current assets increased by 21, this is mainly due to a higher increase in
Balance with other Banks i.e. 139but cash is reduced which is not good Ior
the Short term solvency oI the bank. Account receivable also increases as
compared to last year but other assets decrease i.e. 33.
* Total Assets are increased by 23.7.
* Eixed Assets are increased by 43.
* The increase in Balance with other banks by 139 is a good sign Ior the
The Bank of Punjab
Internship Report 125
short-term solvency oI the bank.
* The Account receivable is increased by 15 in this period.
As a whole total assets and total liabilities plus owner`s equity is increased by 19 which
corresponds with the increase in service revenue.
From Profit and Loss Account
* The service revenue oI the bank is increased by 1 than that oI 2008, with the
decrease oI 7 in the cost return on deposits. So service decreased less than
that oI return on deposits.

RATIO ANALYSIS
The relationship oI one item to another expressed in simple mathematical Iorm is known
as a ratio. A single ratio in itselI is meaningless because it does not Iurnish a complete
picture. A ratio becomes meaning Iull when compared with some standard. So we have
taken ratios and percentage oI the BOP based in its record oI the past Iinancial and
operating perIormance. On the Iollowing pages, I make the analysis oI the Iinancial
statements oI BOP by using related items Ior the last Iive years.
ProfitabiIity vs. Investment
Remarks.
The return on assets shows a increasing trend, which is good sign for the BOP.
Return on deposits is also not stable; in starting years it increases and then
decreases and knows again increase. This is due to an increase in deposits and
less increase in profit.
The ROE ratio of five years of BOP indicates that the profitability of the bank with
equity is increasing day by day. This looks to be very positive sign.

Profitability Ratios.
Remarks.
The net proIit margin oI Iive years indicates that the income oI the BOP aIter
paying its non-productive expenses is increasing year by year, which is a very good sign
Ior the bank. As I see the operating proIit oI the bank shows a increasing trend in ratio.
This shows that the earning capacity oI the bank is increasing year by year.

Earning Per Share
Remarks:
Earning oI BOP shows the increasing trend. This shows that the earning capacity
oI a single share is increasing and shareholders are earning increase every year. This is
very good sign Ior BOP. This ratio should be as high as possible because it has a great
importance Ior an investor to invest in the Bank oI Punjab.
Regulatory Ratios:
Remarks.
Advances to deposits ratio oI The Bank oI Punjab shows that the portion
oI loan in total deposit oI the bank is not stable, 1st three year Irom 2005 to 2007 increase
then decrease. It means that the credit (advances) circulation oI the bank has Iallen Irom
36 to 28 during the last Iive years, which is a not good sign. And the cash to deposits
ratio is also decrease Irom 42 to 12.

Ior the Bank oI Punjab.

new ways oI acquiring, managing and sharing market inIormation to survive in the
industry and to earn proIits.

The bank should increase the computer specialist at branch level.
Customer Compliant Department
The bank should improve the services and remove the problems oI customer by making a
vast customer complaint department.
Locker Facility
The bank should increase locker Iacility and decrease the charges oI lockers.
Security Measurement
Bank has low security measurement in branches. Bank should increase the number oI
guards and other technical security tools.
Improve and Update Website
The Bank should improve and keep the up to date inIormation on web site.

and well-educated talent. This will contribute to the long-term beneIits oI the bank.

should be enhanced to small-scale businesses.
