The word 'Bank' is said to have been derived from the words Bancus or Banque or Bank. This
history of banking is traced to as early as 2000 B.C. Banking in fact is primitive as human
society, for ever since man came to realize the importance of money as a medium of exchange,
the necessity of a controlling or regulating agency or institution was naturally felt. The priests in
Greece used to keep money and valuables of the people in temples. These priests thus acted as
financial agents. The origin of banking is also traced to early goldsmiths. They used to keep
strong safes for storing the money and valuables of the people. The first stage in the development
of modern banking, thus, was the accepting of deposits of cash from those persons who had
surplus money with them.
The goldsmiths used to issue receipts for the money deposited with them. These receipts began
to pass from hand to hand in settlement of transactions because people had confidence in the
integrity and solvency of goldsmiths. When it was found that these receipts were fully accepted
in payment of debts; then the receipts were drawn in such a way that it entitled any holder to
claim the specified amount of money from goldsmiths. A depositor who is to make the payments
may now get the money in cash from goldsmiths or pay over the receipt to the creditor. These
receipts were the earlier bank notes. The second stage in the development of banking thus was
the issue of bank notes.
The goldsmiths soon discovered that all the people who had deposited money with them do not
come to withdraw their funds in cash. They found that only a few persons presented the receipts
for encashment during a given period of time. They also found that most of the money deposited
with them was lying idle. At the same time; they found that they were being constantly requested
for loan on good security. They thought it profitable to lend at least some of the money deposited
with them to the needy persons. This proved a profitable business for the goldsmiths. They
At the time of independence, there were 631 offices of scheduled banks in Pakistan, of which
487 were located in West Pakistan alone. As a new country without resources it was very
difficult for Pakistan to run its own banking system immediately. Therefore, the expert
committee recommended that the Reserve Bank of India should continue to function in Pakistan
until 30th September 1948, so that problems of time and demand liability, coinage currencies,
exchange etc. be settled between India and Pakistan.
The non-Muslims started transferring their funds and accounts to India. By the end of June 1948
the number of officers of scheduled banks in Pakistan declined from 631 to 225. There were 19
foreign banks with the status of small branch offices that were engaged solely in export of crop
from Pakistan, while there were only two Pakistani institutions, Habib Bank of Pakistan and the
Australian Bank. The customers of the bank are not satisfied with the uncertain condition of
banking. Similarly the Reserve Bank of India was not in the favor of Govt. of Pakistan. The
Govt. of Pakistan decided to establish a full-fledge central bank. Consequently the Governor-
general of Pakistan Quaid-I-Azam inaugurated the State Bank of Pakistan on July 1, 1948. Thus
a landmark was made in the history of banking when the state bank of Pakistan assumed full
control of banking and currency in Pakistan. The banking structure in Pakistan comprises of the
following types.
Saving banks.
Cooperative banks
Up to December 31, 1973, there were 14 Pakistan commercial banks that functioned all over the
country and in some foreign countries through a network of branches. All these commercial
banks were nationalized in January 1, 1974, and were recognized and merged into the following
five banks:
The state bank of Pakistan is the Central bank of the country and was established on July 1,
1948. The separation of East Pakistan and its repercussion in the form of economic depression
has caused a lot of difficulties to the banking system in Pakistan. The network of bank branches
now covers a very large segment of national economy. The numbers of branches have increased
appreciably and there is now on branch of bank for every 3000 heads of population
approximately. There is done reasonable growth in deposits from the establishment of Pakistan.
Besides this growth, specialized credit and financial institutions have also developed over the
years.
The Government of Pakistan in the late 90’s introducing the need for the privatization of state
owned banks and companies. The private sector has accepted the challenge and most of the
banks are privatized today. The State Bank of Pakistan issues the shares of these periodically.
Bank employees and other common peoples can also purchase these shares and earn profit.
HISTORY:
MCB was founded by ISFHANI and ADAMJEE families in Calcutta on July 9, 1947. MCB is
not an overnight success story rather good track of services are responsible for the leaps and
bounds progress. After the partition of the Indo-Pak Subcontinent, the bank moved to Dhaka
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 52-year
legacy of trust in its customers and the citizens of Pakistan
The performance of MCB was badly affected by bureaucrat government. In January 1974, MCB
was nationalized by Bhutto Government following the bank act 1974 subsequently in June 1974
Premier Bank Limited merged with MCB.
PRIVATIZATION:
When privatization policy was announced in 1990, MCB was the first to be privatized upon
recommendations of World Bank and IMF. The reason for this choice was the better profitability
condition of the organization and less risky credit portfolio which made'' it a good choice for
investors. On April 8th, 1991, the management control was handed over to “National Group”
(the highest bidders). Initially only 26% of shares were sold to private sector at Rs. 56 per share.
MCB besides being money financial organization have rendered invaluable services in the
economics and social developments of our country. MCB today, represents a bank that has
grown with time, experience and Pakistan.
“To be the leading financial services provider, partnering with our customers for a more
prosperous and secure future”
“MISSION STATEMENT”
“We are a team of committed professionals, providing innovative and efficient financial
solutions to create and nurture long-term relationships with our customers. In doing so, we
ensure that our shareholders can invest with confidence in us.”
After privatization, the growth in every department of the bank has been observed. Following are
some key developments:
Introduction of Rupee Traveler Cheques & Photo Credit Card for the first time in
Pakistan.
Extended use of information technology which is evident from the fact that there are 768
fully automated branches, more than 250- online branches (integrated networking), 151

“OTHER DEPARTMENTS”
There have been some departments in which internship was not allowed, these departments were
CASH DEPARTMENT
ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT
ADVANCES DEPARTMENT
And in TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT I got information about ATM and Online Banking
and just filled their forms because computer work was not allowed to internees.
“CASH DEPARTMENT”
The cash department is the most important department of the bank. In cash department both
deposits and withdrawals go side by side. This department deals with cash deposits and
payments.
The cashier is responsible to receive both the paying-in-slip and cash from the depositor. For
depositing the cash into customer’s accounts, there is need to fill in the paying-in-slip giving the
related details of the transaction. The cashier check the necessary details provided in the paying-
in-slip and accounts the cash and tallies with the amount declared in the slip then cashier fills in
the “Cash voucher received Record Sheet” and assigns a voucher no. to both the transaction
being made in the sheet and the slip. The 2nd cashier posts the transaction entries in computer
ledger. After posting these entries, computer display before posting balance and after posting.
Cashier assigns the stamp “POSTED” on the voucher to show voucher transaction entries are
posted.
The only instrument that can be used to withdraw an amount from an account is the Cheque
book. No payments are made by another instrument. When cheque is valid in all respects, the
cashier enters the necessary inputs in the computer and posts the entry so that account balance is
updated. When cashier posts these entries, computer automatically display the balance before
posting the transaction amount, balance after posting.
At the end of the working day cashier is responsible to maintain the cash balance book. The cash
book contains the date, opening balance, detail of cash payment and received in figures, the
“ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT”
The most important aspect in record keeping of a bank is its accounting system. The basic
purpose for maintaining an accounting system is to ensure consistency in record keeping and
accounts. The basic requirement for any accounting system is that it should be in accordance
with the GAAP i.e. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. There are two choices available
to an organization for an accounting system.
The major function of this department is keeping the record maintenance of each and every
transaction and prepares reports about the amount of deposits and advances and sent to Head
office or State Bank of Pakistan on monthly, quarterly and yearly basis.

Different banks provide loan facility to general public, companies etc. but MCB provides two
types of loans that are as under:
In this type of loans cash is directly involved. Bank provides loans in shape of cash. Bank gives
credit or limit facility to customers that needed it. In fund based loans there are two further
classifications:
For Machinery
RUNNING FINANCE:
The MCB provides overdraft facility to the customers for the working capital
requirement. These are the loans which are given to those customers whose business runs
through out the year or continuously. Its duration is one year and it is for running business. In
advances there are two securities one is known primary security and other is secondary or
collateral security. Hypothecation of stock is the primary security and mortgage is the secondary
or collateral security.
Hypothecation of Stock

Pledge
LAHORE BUSINESS SCHOOL
Page 43
HYPOTHECATION OF STOCK:
In hypothecation of stock the possession of goods and the title remains in the favour of customer.
Without the permission of the bank the customer can't sell the stock. It is the restriction of the
bank that in god own there should be stock according to the instructions of bank every time. The
draw back of this is that there is no check and balance of stock from the bank. The customer can
easily sell his stock.
MORTGAGE:
The bank can mortgage the immovable property like land, building etc as a security. In mortgage
the possession remains to customer and title of goods remains to bank.
PLEDGE:
In this, bank requires the moveable property of the customer as a security like stock,
vehicle etc. possession of goods remains to customer and title in the favor of bank. The bank
hires a muqaddam [Guard] and the key of store where the stock is pledged is in the security of
bank. After receiving amount bank releases his stock for the same amount
In non fund based loans cash is not directly involved but bank gives guarantee on the
behalf of customer. Bank works as a third party and known as Guarantor. Bank provides a
security to customer when he needs and someone requires from the customer.

“RATIO ANALYSIS”
Ratio analysis is an important and old technique of financial analysis. Ratios are important and
helpful in the reference that:
These simplify the comprehension of financial statement and tell the whole story of
changes in the financial conditions of the business.
These help in planning and forecasting these can assist management in its basic functions
of forecasting, planning, coordination and control.
These help in investment decision in case of investor and lending decision in case of
Bankers etc.
However, the ratios are only indicators, they cannot be taken as final regarding good or bad
financial position of the business other things have also to be seen.
Great care is needed while calculating meaningful ratios and in interpreting them. Although there
are several ratios, which an analyst can employ yet the type of ratios he would, use entirely
depends on the purpose for which the analysis is done i.e., a creditor would keep him abreast
about the ability of a concern to cover up its current obligations and so would care about current
and liquid ratios, Turnover of receivables, coverage of interest by the level of earnings etc.
Liquidity ratios
Activity ratios
Debt ratios
Market ratios
LIQUIDITY RATIOS
The liquidity of a firm is measured by its ability to satisfy its short-term obligations as they come
due. Liquidity refers to the solvency of the firm’s overall financial position i.e. the ease with
which it pays its bills.
Current ratio
CURRENT RATIO:
The current ratio, one of the most commonly cited financial ratios, measure the firm’s ability to
meet its short-term obligations. It is expressed as follows:
Current assets
Current ratio = Current liability
RESULT:
From the above ratios it is clear that the firm’s investment in current assets has increased. In
2008 it is in better position to pay its obligations as they come due. But in three years we can see
DEBT RATIO
The debt ratio measures the proportion of total assets financed by the firm’s creditors. The higher
this ratio the greater the amount of other people money being used to generate profit. The ratio is
calculated by following formula
RESULT:
The ratio indicates the more than half of the assets financed by the debt. This ratio is almost
showing the same trend throughout the previous three years. Debt ratio indicates the greater the
risk and more financial leverage it has. It also shows that firm has paid some portion of the debt
during the year 2008.
MARKET RATIOS
Return on equity
LAHORE BUSINESS SCHOOL
Page 50
Earnings per share
It measures the overall effectiveness of management in generating profits with its available
assets. The higher the Return on total assets better will be the performance.
RESULT:
The return on investment of the firm is 5.03 % in 2008. It is less than the previous year. It shows
that firm generates Rs.5.03 for each Rs.100 of the investment which is very poor for the
company progress.
RETURN ON EQUITY:
RESULT:
This ratio indicates the amount of income earned by the common stockholders. Above figures
clearly show the progress of the company and it maintains this ratio more than Rs.20 which is
good for the investors.
VERTICAL ANALYSIS:
In vertical analysis each item of a financial statement is presented as a % age of the total of items
or some other suitable items.
HORIZONTAL ANALYSIS:
In vertical analysis each item in financial statement of the last year is considered as a base of the
same items.
From the above mentioned analysis following are my Result about the Operations of branches of
MCB for the year 2008,
Due to financial crisis in the world investment activities are slowed down in year 2008
and they are decreased by 152% than year 2007.
Due to its sound financial policies MCB’s borrowing from financial institutions has been
decreased by 95 % than year 2007.
During my internship of six weeks in MCB Bank, Ltd. MALL ROAD BRANCH LAHORE the
knowledge given by my respected and devoted teachers proved to be very helpful in
understanding the environment in the organization and working practically.
Following are some key points about application of my class room learning in the organization:
Also the Knowledge which I got from the subject “Computer application in Business”
also proved very useful.
In MCB Bank Ltd. I really enjoyed working with the staff of MALL ROAD BRANCH
LAHORE having a wish to be employee of MCB. It was almost impossible to work in all the
departments within that limited time. But the staff of the branch provided me the opportunity to
work in the different departments for the sake of practical knowledge. I feel highly indebted to
work in the MALL ROAD BRANCH with the manager of that branch Mr. Junaid Butt,
because I learnt a lot in that branch.
During my internship training in the MCB Bank as I early mentioned that I have worked in
different departments & seats and learnt the following things,
Account opening.
Outward clearing.
ADVERTISING:
Bank must let potential customers know that all attractions for banking exist. This is done by
advertising on television and obtaining press coverage, in conjunction with direct mail, window
displays, leaflet in branches and in appropriate other locations (such as hotels, shops, etc.) and
including leaflets in statement of accounts sent to existing customers in the hope that they will
tell potential customers about the services provided by our bank.
Some personal sector customers prefer not to come to branch. They increasingly want to deal
with the bank in other ways, such as home banking or use of Automated Teller Machines
(ATMs), which need to be at every branch or some important shopping plazas and airports etc.
INCREASED SERVICES:
One way to retain the customers is to offer a wide range of services such as tax advice, free life
insurance equivalent to amount deposited, shares portfolio management, fund management
facility, etc., complimentary to the core services. Banks must have a slightly different mix of
services and mean of providing these such that customers can choose the mix that suits them
best.
MANAGEMENT OF TIME:
There should be a good management of time for the sake of employees i.e. offering them free
break hours instead of making them work in this time as well.
MCB should provide greater facilities to its employees, and give them bonuses for their hard
work and Promotions as well. There is a criticism on the banking management that the salaries
of the employees are decreasing in every succeeding year. And I think this will shake the
confidence and working habit of the employees
BANKING PROFESSIONALS:
The bank should hire banking professionals having experience in their respective fields that
will boost the performance of the company as currently MBAs are produced for this field so they
should be hired for enhancing the performance of company.
ATTRACT CUSTOMERS:
The banking company should offer such policies which would attract customers which are
denied by other banking in the market.
Most of the bank employees, are sticking to one seat only with the result that they become master
of one particular job and loose their grip on other banking operation. In my opinion all the
employees should have regular job experience all out-look towards banking. The promotion
policy should be adjusted
As such system should be designed that every employee who has some problems with his
officers can communicate it to the higher management and some steps must be taken to improve
that.
I will apply such a communication system specially designed for employees trough they
can share the problems regarding work environment.
Complete working and break hours will be offered so that employees can work
efficiently.
I will make it sure that some of the employees should be sent for training to other
countries and employees from other branches should be brought here.
I will make promotions, job rotation and bonuses, an important part of policies of MCB
Bank.
At every month’s closing when employees stay at branch even after working hours, a
dinner from bank will be offered.
To retain potential customers certain services will be provided and let them know with
advertising.
I will make it sure that Working environment, equipment, furniture and staff dressing
should be according to the modern banking style.
