Chapter 2
Business Operations
1. Banking Sector Overview

Pakistans banking and finance sector grew by over 21 percent from July 2004March 2005 amid the eight percent expansion in the services sector in Pakistan. Financial sector in Pakistan is going through a fast-paced transition as new groups were buying out foreign banks operations in Pakistan. The number of listed banks is also increasing. While the income from core banking activity has increasing due to higher business volume, earnings are also expected to improve due to ventures into consumer finance, housing finance and enhanced lending to the agriculture sector. In just four years the banking industry has expanded tremendously and now there are more than two dozen commercial and investment banks operating in the country. Commercial banks in the private sector had performed well since their inception, registering overall growth in the deposit base and profits. The banks also managed to maintain a healthy credit portfolio. Foreign banks have a strong presence in all major cities and are targeting high net worth individuals and blue chip companies. Their strategy is quite successful as they account for about 34 percent of total sector profits, despite having only 15 percent of deposits and 16 percent of advances. During the first six months of the ongoing fiscal year, total assets of all the scheduled banks increased by Rs 239 billion. Total assets grew by 8.5 percent from Rs 2,800 billion in June 2004 to Rs 3,039 billion in Dec 2004. During the first six months of 2004-05, there was also an increase of Rs 277 billion in the net advances of the scheduled banks. Net advances grew by 19.3 percent from Rs 1,437 billion in June 2004 to Rs 1,714 billion in Dec 2004.

2. MCBs Performance Overview

The first half of 2005 was very promising for MCB, as the bank has achieved pre tax profits of Rs. 4.2 billion, compared with Rs. 2.2 billion for the same period in 2004. Profit after tax has more than doubled compared to the corresponding period for 2004 and exceeds Rs. 3 billion highest ever profit in the history of MCB. This translates into earning per shares of Rs. 7.43. Advance and deposit increased to Rs. 156 billion and Rs. 241 billion reflecting a growth of 14% and 10% respectively. Additionally the banks assets expanded by 16% during the half year ended 2005 and crossed Rs. 300 billion marks. Banks equity (capital and reserves) increased by 41% during the half year, which was due to the issue of right shares and retained earnings. Increase in equity would improve the lending limit and would provide the opportunity for

significant growth of the banks balance sheet. This would also help to meet the capital requirement under Basel Accord II, which will be effective from 2007. Based on continuing growth and consistently outstanding performance, MCB has once again received the Euromoney Award 2005 for the Best Bank in Pakistan. MCB has become the only bank to receive the Euromoney Award for Excellence for the fifth time in last six years. In addition, Asia Money has also declared MCB as The Best Domestic Commercial Bank in Pakistan for the year 2005.

4. MCBs Competitive Strategies

To be competitive the Bank has further reinforced its position in the Consumer Banking arena by streamlining and re-launching the consumer financing products and introducing more convenience based solutions. With the re-launch of auto finance and house finance products, the Bank pushed the products with full thrust. The Bank has also launched a running finance facility against mortgage of property. Technology continued to play an important role in improving and expanding product offerings. The Bank introduced more IT based products to cater to the changing lifestyles and needs of the customers. MCB Virtual-Internet Banking was launched with wide ranging banking solutions for the customers ranging from individual to corporate customers and it has become the most preferred Internet banking solution in the country. MCB also had the privilege of being the first Bank in Pakistan to launch the comprehensive bill payment facility through its alternate delivery channels which include Internet Banking, ATMs and MCB Call Centre, currently with six payment partners. Similarly, the Bank also took initiatives to increase the usage of debit facility. To provide timely and updated information, MCB has also provided a new look to its website which is user friendly and considerably easy to browse. The Islamic Banking initiative has been very successful in attracting new customer, both individuals and companies. Similarly, those relationships, which were confined only to current account facility, have grown into stronger business relationships. The branch network was expanded to Lahore and Multan during the last year and recently been extended to Hyderabad and Faisalabad. The Bank plans to further expand its Islamic Banking branch network to other metropolitan areas and also to introduce new sharia compliant banking solutions to a wider range of customers for satisfying their individual and business needs. Some wide-ranging new strategic initiatives were also taken up which will be important for the Bank in years to come. A private company has been formed in Hong Kong (fully owned subsidiary of MCB) in partnership with Standard Chartered Bank, handling trade transactions of select countries in the AsiaPacific region. It is projected to earn US$ 1 million in its first year of operations.

To increase its international presence, the Bank will be opening its representative office in Dubai and entering into major strategic alliances with banks in the UAE/ especially for marketing our consumer banking products to non-resident Pakistanis. Furthermore, feasibility is also being carried out for entering other international markets. MCB's operations continued to be streamlined with focus on rationalization of expenses, re-alignment of back-end processing to increase productivity, enhancement of customer service standards, process efficiency and controls. The Bank has taken the lead in introducing the innovative concept of centralizing Trade Services in the country by providing centralized foreign trade services to branches with a view to improve efficiency, expertise and reduce delivery cost. Management of Human Resources has been one of our core focus areas. MCB is committed towards attracting, retaining and motivating outstanding people. Challenge for MCB is to provide an environment in which employees can better realize their potential. The Bank introduced 'reward for performance' where high potential officers were identified and rewarded accordingly. In view of the competitive environment, the Bank is focusing on performance and introducing a more robust performance management system. MCB is also strongly committed to training its staff at all levels. The Bank will also be implementing the full suite of the latest version of SYMBOLS Version 8. MCB Bank will run SYMBOLS eFinance modules to deliver personalized services to its customers over multiple delivery channels, while SYMBOLS Enterprise Operations Center will serve as its core banking transaction-processing engine. By implementing SYMBOLS, MCB Bank aims to raise the level of its customer service and its time to market in new product offerings for its three core banking businesses in Corporate, Commercial and Consumer Banking - retaining its market leadership as Pakistan's progressive Bank.
