DEVLOPMENT PHASE:
MCB Bank Limited was incorporated by the Adamjee Group on July 9, 1947, under
the Indian Companies Act, VII of 1913 as a limited company. The bank was
established with a view to provide banking facilities to the business community of
the South Asia. After the
partition of the Indo-Pak subcontinent, the bank moved to Dhaka (then the
capital of former East Pakistan) from where it commenced business in August
1948. In 1956, the bank transferred its registered office to Karachi, Where the
head office is presently located. Thus,
the bank inherits a 64 years legacy of trust of its customers and the citizens of
Pakistan. MCB Bank is not an overnight success story. It started with a share
capital of Rs 30 million which is divided into 3 million ordinary shares of Rs 10
each.
NATIONALIZATION PHASE:
The 1960s decade is stated as the golden era in Pakistans economic and financial
development. The banking sector also registered noticeable growth during that
period and
lent a strong helping hand to the government to achieve rapid economic growth
of the country. But in early 1970s this scenario changed altogether.

Clearing Department
Remittance Department
Accounts Department
Cash Department
Clearing Department:
All the external functions of clearing are carried by NIFT (National Institute of
Facilitation Technology) while the internal operations are performed by clearing
department. It is just like any courier service which takes the cheques of other
banks and delivers the cheques of that branch to it.
Clearing is a system by which banks exchange cheques and other negotiable
instruments drawn on each other within a specified area and thereby securing the
payment for its clients through the clearing house. A clearing house is a general
organization of the banks at a given place, Its main purpose is offsetting the cross
obligation in the form of cheques.
When there are many banks in the country each will receive a number of cheques
drawn on other banks, deposited within for collection. A clearing house is an
organization where these cheques are brought and the mutual claims of each
bank on the other are offset and a settlement is made by the payment of
differences. They deliver cheques that their bank may have negotiated and

Remittance Department:
The need of remittance is commonly felt in commercial life particularly and in
every day life general. A major function of any banking system is the transfer of
funds from one client or one place to another. By providing this service to the
customer the bank earns a lot of income in the form of service charges. This
department deals with local currency remittance i.e. remittance from one city to
another without actually carrying the currency. MCB uses following instrument
for transferring of money:
Demand Drafts
Pay Order
Telegraphic Transfer
Mail Transfer
Demand Drafts (DD):
DD is a written order given by the branch of the bank on behalf of the customer
to other branch of the same bank to pay the certain amount to the customer. DD
are issued for the particular place other than place of issuance. A drafts is a
Cheque drawn by a bank on its own branch or any other branch of another bank
at a different place requesting it to pay on demand a specified amount of money
which is already received to the person named on it. DD is of following two types:
DD payable
DD Paid Suspense a/c
In the first type as advice reaches for payment the immediately pay to the
customer while in later as DD presented by the customer, it is paid and the
suspense account is debited.

Pay Order:
Payment Orders are issued for the money transfer with in the city. Pay order is
made for local transfer of money. Pay order is the most convenient, simple and
secure way of transfer of money.

In this case the authority is given from one bank to other on the behalf of the
customer through telecommunication to debit their inter office account through
them and credit their parties account mentioned in TT. It is an inter bank
transaction. Telegraphic transfer is an instant transfer of funds. Through this
method applicant can transfer money from one place to another place. There are
two types of TT, Both types of TT are maintained in separate registers, test is
applied by the manager of every amount of TT.
Incoming TT
Outgoing TT

bank commission. MCB charges the commission at the same rate as in the case of
demand drafts.
Mail Transfer (Mt):
As the name shows, it is transfer of money in the shape of document through
mail. Procedure is like TT. The transfer of funds from one place to another by mail
is called Mail Transfer (MT). The MT can be foreign or domestic. The applicant
who is desiring to remit the funds by way of Mail Transfer can either deposit cash
or ask the bank to debit his/her account with the cost of MT including the bank
charges. These all measures are for safe transfer of funds.

Accounts Department:
Every transaction which takes place recorded in the computer so all transactions
in different departments are forwarded to account department.
Since all vouchers from different departments are forwarded to accounts
department so this department tallies all such transactions with current
department after maintaining the ledger of each department.
The branch where I worked Mr. ANUS was performing these activities.
I was not allowed to use software but I observed all the fuctions performed by
him. Following are different functions performed by this department:
As software is used therefore all these tasks have become quite simple just it
requires posting and then all tasks can be performed by giving computer
commands.

details of the cash. There are two portion of the paying-in-slip. The depositor
signs the one part of the paying-in-slip one is retained by the bank to show an
acceptance of the entries made in the slip.
The different colored paying-in-slip are used for all the types of deposits. Only the
slips related to a particular type of a/c is acceptable by the bank. For example

Personal Objectives:
I worked as an internee in MCB Port Qasim Branch and the main objectives to
study in MCB were:

Personal Loan:
Mobile Banking:
At the forefront of technological excellence, MCB proudly introduces MCB
MOBILE BANKING. The convenience of accessing your account balance
information and mini statement.

Call Center:
The state of the art MCB call center is the right choice to keep you in step with
your ever hectic schedule by providing you services relating to your account and

Islamic Banking:
Islamic Banking Division was formed with effect from 1st January 2003, which in a
short span of time, has developed sufficient expertise, necessary infrastructure,
information technology, and manpower to run Islamic Banking Operation and
offer Islamic Banking.
Type of Accounts
BASIC ACCOUNT:
CURRENT ACCOUNT:
The current account is the most common account and the most preferred
amongst business concerns. The theoretical explanation for this would be that
they can function more efficiently but since in reality there are no restrictions on
any with drawl the only reason we could think of is that current account facilitates
online banking which saves time (which in this ultra competitive business world
the most precious resource) to a considerable extent. In case of a current account
the client does not earn any interest. Current account enables the client to do
cash transactions in a more efficient manner.
Low minimum balance requirements.
Unlimited cash deposit and withdrawal facility at hundreds of branches
nationwide.
Use your MCB Visa Debit Card to shop at thousands of merchants across
Pakistan.
Lockers and other affordable transactional facilities.
MCB ACCESS:
Hundreds of 9-5 full day banking branches.
Network of over a thousand branches, and hundreds of online branches, at
convenient locations.
SAVING ACCOUNT:
Individuals who wish to earn profit/interest on their investment normally
maintain the profit and loss sharing account but in order to earn interest the
client is required to keep his/her deposits with the bank for some time. In theory
there are some restrictions on withdrawal of money from a Profit and Loss
Sharing account but in general banking practice there is no restriction on any with
drawl from a Profit and Loss Sharing account.

BUSINESS ACCOUNT:

Open a Business Account with Rs.50,000 only.
Unlimited free cash deposit and withdrawal facility at hundreds of branches
nationwide.
FREE SERVICES
When you maintain average monthly balance of Rs.100,000 or above

Internship Report,2013
Every transaction which takes place recorded in the computer so all transactions
in different departments are forwarded to account department. The branch
where I worked Mr. Anus Khan was performing these activities. I was not allowed
to use software but I observed all the functions performed by him.
In cash department I observed the process of deposits, filled deposit slips, and
learned how the cash registers are maintained. In this department I did little work
practically as it was not allowed.
During my internship I dealt with many customers and employees, this was a
great experience to learn
- How to deal with customers
- How to work under pressure i.e in rush hours.
- How to manage an office.
- My communication skills were improved.
- I observed the practical application of many accounting concepts.
In short, MCB Bank is the first choice of the students who want to gain the
practical experience of internship. As being the first bank in Pakistan,
MCB has always strived to achieve more market share by focusing on the needs of
its current and potential customers.
KASBIT University
Page 26 of 32
Weaknesses:
The noted weaknesses of MCB are as:
The majority of people are not well aware about the products of MCB.
Therefore it should advertise extensively especially RTC and Master Cards.
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 5:00pm but due mismanaging of time allocation
and work the staff is normally on their seats till 7:00 or 8:00 clock.
Process of development is bit slow due to its conservative approach
Never prefer to be a leader and prefer to be a follower of others
Slow improvement and acceptance of technological changes

Opportunities:
Greater potential and opportunities for Credit Division if Liberal Policies
being adopted.
department through effective promotional and liberal policies.
Inclusion of highly qualified professional can change the whole scenario
and position of the bank if they have given the due liberty in performing
their duties.
Adoption of information technology will improve the customer services.
More mobilization of accumulated deposit is possible through innovative
financing to
Agro Based Sector
Leasing
Personalized Financing
Threats:
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.
Introduction of credit marketing by local and foreign banks is badly
affecting the mobilization of the MCBs deposits due to the non presence of
such department in it.
Introduction and adoption of information technology as well as promotion
of the computer culture by the local as well as foreign banks will definitely
affect the services and business of the MCB.

CONCLUSIONS
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 Port Qasim branch 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 employees efforts and consideration for each other.
KASBIT University

PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
Shortage of Staff:
Almost in all branches of MCB BANK the problem of shortage of staff is very
common. There are only few employees who are the be all and end all of the
whole branch resulting in burden of work.
The circle of ATM machines should extend in all major cities of the
Pakistan.
KASBIT University

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.
Increase Salaries:
MCB is making good profits but giving less pay to their employees as compared to
their competitors. So their salaries should be increased.
Incentive To Employees:
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. Such system should be designed that every employee who
has some problems with his officers can communicate to the higher management
and some steps must be taken to improve that.
