EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In current dynamic environment, it is necessary to have some practical exposure
of ground realities and for Business Administration students it is of prime
importance to see the world from workers point of view. Practical knowledge is
utmost desire of any student belonging to different fields but for management
students it becomes essential to gain some practical knowledge through field
work. This project report is one of the practical experiences of our life which we
have gained earlier. And for us, a great potential opportunity is hidden in this
respect by gaining the practical exposure of processes.
The objective of this report is to explain the importance of agriculture in
Pakistans economy and to explain the importance of ZTBL for the agriculture
sector. Departments of ZTBL and there functions are discussed in the report.
SWOT analysis and ratios analysis of ZTBL is also performed.
After compiling this report, we can say that doing internship at ZTBL Multan
brings new and challenging tasks in front of students through which they are
able to look upon the facts which were hidden for them until now. So, the
learning opportunity which I was seeking for at start of internship program
seems to be fulfilled now. But there is no end of learning and I am still striving to
learn new things and experiences by our surroundings, by sharing ideas and by
observing the ground realities of world.

INTRODUCTION
MEANING & ORIGIN OF BANK:
Some authors are of opinion that the word bank is derived from the word
"Banquet" which means a "Bench". This is attributed to the fact that the Jewish
transacted the business of money exchange on bench in market place. A
bank includes a body of person, who carry on the business of banking
or a bank may be as an institution dealing mainly in money and credit.
It accepts deposits from one class of people at a lower rate of interest

and industry for meeting the requirements. This provides finance for
successfully carrying on various stages of production as well as
distribution.Moreover, a bank can stimulate the habit of savings amount for
the people and provide the security and interest they offer with these savings
which are deposited by people are in a position to utilize the deposited amount
more productively. In short, a bank can increase the transaction capacity of the
customers by advancing loans when they require for additional funds to finance
their expanded program of business transaction.

EVOLUTION OF BANKING:
According to the banking companies ordinance 1962 banking is business
that receive investment or lending of deposits of money from public
and repayable on demand or otherwise and which draw able by cheque,
draw orders or otherwise. As regards the growth of modern commercial
bank, it can be traced to as early as 600BC.The An Outline of Money, written
by G. Crowther, has traced the history of modern English Commercial banking.
According to him, the present day banker has three ancestors such as
merchants, goldsmiths & money lenders; which are briefly explain as under;
1. The Merchants:
The earliest stage in the growth of banking can be traced to the working of
merchants. These merchants were traders in commodities. The trading activities
were carried on by them from one place to another. It was risky for the traders to
carry metallic money with themselves for payment. The traders with high
reputation began to issue receipts which were accepted as titles of money.
These receipts or letters of transfer also called Hundi in Indo Sub Continent
were the first mode of payments. The merchant banking thus forms the earliest
stage in the evolution of modern banking.
2. The Goldsmiths:
The second stage in the growth of banking is normally traced to earlier
goldsmiths. These goldsmiths also called Seths in India used to receive gold
and silver for safe custody. The goldsmiths began to issue receipts for the
metallic money (gold & silver) kept with them. These receipts with the passage
of time became payable to the bearer on demand. In this way the goldsmiths

INTERNSHIP REPORT

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


note, become a medium of exchange and a mean of payment. The goldsmiths,
thus, can rightly be termed as the fore-runners of the modern bank note.
3. The Money Lenders:
The third stage in the development of banking arose when the goldsmiths
became the money lenders. By experience the goldsmiths (who were called
money lenders) came to know that they could keep a small proportion of the
total deposits for meeting the demands of customers for cash and the rest they
could easily lend. They allowed the depositors to draw over and above the
money actually standing to their credit. In Economic terminology, we can say
that they allowed the overdraft facilities to their depositors. When every money
lender and goldsmith issued receipts and most of them allowed the overdraft
facilities, there was too much confusion in the banking system. The money
lenders and goldsmiths, in order to earn profits, could not keep adequate
reserves for meeting the demands of the customers for cash. The failure on the
part of the money lenders and goldsmiths to return money caused widespread
distress among the people. In order to create confidence among the people,
steps were taken to regulate the banking organization. A conference was held in
Nuremburg in 1548. It was decided that a bank should be set up by the state
which should streamline the banking organization and technique. The first
central bank was formed in Geneva in1578. Bank of England was established in
1694.

EVALUTION OF BANKING IN PAKISTAN:


At the time of independence the areas, which now constitute the Pakistan
were producing only food grains and agricultural raw material. For Indo-Pak subcontinent, there were practically no industries and whatever raw material was
produced was being exported from the Pakistan. However commercial banking
facilities were provided fairly well here. There were 487 offices of scheduled
banks in the territories now constituting the Pakistan. As a new country without
resources it was very difficult for the Pakistan to run its own banking system
immediately. Therefore in accordance with the provision of Indian independence
Act 1974, an expert committee was appointed to study the issue. On the
recommendation of committee Reserve Bank of India continued to function in
the Pakistan, till 30th September 1984, so that problem of time and demand,
liability, coinage, currencies exchange etc be settled between India and Pakistan.
INTERNSHIP REPORT

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


It was decided that Pakistan will take over the management of public debt and
exchange control from reserve Bank of India on 1st April 1948, and that India
notice would continue to be legal tender to the Pakistan till 30th September
1948.
Following the announcement of independence plan in June 1947, the Hindus
residing in the territories now comprising Pakistan started transferring their
assets to India. Moreover the banks including those having the registered offices
in Pakistan transferred to India in order to bring a collapse of new state. By 30th
June 1948, the number of offices of scheduled banks declined from 487 to only
195 in the Pakistan. There were 19 non-Indian foreign banks with the status of
small branch offices, which were engaged solely in export of crops from the
Pakistani institutions i.e., Habib Bank and Australia Bank. The government
promulgated the Banking Companies Ordinance 1947, to safeguard the interests
of both banks and the customers. The Imperial Bank closed down most of its
offices in Pakistan, which created serious problems. The Indian government
withheld Pakistans share of Rs.75 corer in cash balance held by them at the
time of partition. The urgency of assuming control of banking and currency was
very badly felt now. The government of Pakistan decided to establish a fullfledge central Bank. Father of the Nation, Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah,
inaugurated the State Bank of Pakistan on July 1948, after the State Bank of
Pakistan order was promulgated on 12th May 1948. The SBP provided every help
and encouragement to Habib Bank to expend its network of branches and
formulated and developed NBP in 1949 as an agent bank, which took over the
agency functions in1952 from Imperial Bank of India.
In order to develop sound banking and weeding out week institutes, the Banking
Companies Act was promulgated in 1949, empowering the SBP to control the
operations of banking companies in Pakistan. In a very short period of time
number of scheduled banks and other specialized credi tinstitutions rose to thirty
six. By June 1965, the numbers of branches of scheduled banks were 1591.
Pakistani commercial banks were nationalized in 1974, but the process was
reversed as nationalization proved to be defective. The ZTBL, MCB ABL and UBL
have been privatized and HBL is expected to be privatized within near future.
The nationalization of Banks in Pakistan since 1st January 1947 has heralded a
new era of development and progress. It has taken a complete banking system

with effect form January 1981. The privatization process of state owned banks
and enterprises started in 1991.

CLASSIFICATION OF BANKS IN THE PAKISTAN:


The banks are classified according to their spheres of activities.
The main types of banks are as under:
1. Central Banks:
Every civilized country now has its own central bank. The primary function of the
central bank is to regulate the flow of money and credit in order to promote
efficiency, stability and growth in the country. In Pakistan, the SBP is the
countrys central bank.

2. Commercial Banks:
These banks are engaged in performing the routine duties of banking business.
They collect surplus money from the people. They make loans and advances in
the form of overdrafts, cash credits, discounting bills of exchange. The
commercial banks also manufacture credit money. They also provide agency
services and general utility services. These banks are considered the lifeblood of
the economic society. Some commercial banks are owned and controlled by the
government which is called as public sectors banks. For e.g., NBP, HBL, UBLetc
while other commercial banks that are owned by corporations is called as private
sectors banks. For e.g., MCB, ABL, City Banketc
3. Exchange Banks:
As name signifies, these banks mainly deal with international trade. These banks
take the responsibility of settlement of foreign exchange and arrange the foreign

business. In Pakistan, all the nationalized commercial banks have been allowed
to do the business of exchange banks.
4. Saving Banks:
Saving banks are those banks which collect and keep the small savings of the
public. They are called also thrift promoting institutions. The saving banks invest
the funds in the safest government securities. The Post offices and saving
centers perform the business of saving banks in Pakistan.
5. Agriculture Banks:
The agricultural banks (specialized banks) are set up to provide financial
assistance to the agriculturists. The agriculture banks provide short term credit
to the farmers for the purchase of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, fuel.etc.
They also make medium term advances for buying tractors and introducing
modern techniques in farming. In Pakistan, the Agricultural Development Bank of
Pakistan was set up in 1981 for meeting the financial requirement of agriculture,
the ADBP is incorporated as public limited company, according to the
Company Ordinance1984 & is name was changed to the ZTBL in 2002. An
agriculture bank is also called as domestic banks because these banks are
registered and incorporated with in the country.
6. Industrial Banks:
The industrial banks mainly provide medium and long term credit to the
industries. Since the industrial banks have long term deposits, they are in a
position to permit long term investment in industries. In Pakistan, the Industrial
Development Bank was set up in 1961. The other institutions engaged in
providing financial assistance to industries are PICIC, NDFC.etc.

ROLE OF ZTBL IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE


PAKISTAN:
Banks play an important and active role in the economic development of a
country. If the banking system in a country is effective, efficient and disciplined,
it brings about a rapid growth in the various sectors of the economy such as
agriculture, industrial, and the SME sectors. If the banking system is unorganized
and inefficient, it creates maladjustments and impediments in the process of
INTERNSHIP REPORT

11

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


development. In Pakistan, the banking system is very well organized. The SBP
established on July 1st, 1948 stands at the apex and is responsible for the
operation of the banking system in Pakistan. The other banks such as
commercial, specialized or unspecialized banks which form the banking structure
in the Pakistan are playing an active role in the economic development of the
country.
The role of the ZTBL in order to achieve economic growth and
development of the Pakistan is briefly explained as under:
1. Development of Agriculture & Industrial Sector.
The ZTBL particularly in rural areas of Pakistan are now providing credit for the
development of agriculture & industrial sector. The provision of credit to
agriculture

has

in

productivity and income of the farmers. This has led to increased demand for
industrial good sand expansion of trade & industry. The use of bank drafts,
cheque, bills of exchange, credit cards.etc, has revolutionized both national
and international trade.
2. Banks Promote Capital Formation.
The ZTBL plays an important role in rising of the financial resources. They
encourage savings by giving various types of incentives to the savers. They
expand branches of the banks in the rural and urban areas and mobilize savings
even at far of places. These savings are then made available to the businesses
which make use of for productive purposes in the country.
3. Investment in new Enterprises.
Businessmen normally hesitate to invest their money in risky enterprises. The
ZTBL generally provide short, medium& long term loans to farmers to invest in
new enterprises and adopt new methods of production. The provision of timely
credit increases the productive capacity of the country. The organized banking
system helps in directing physical resources into productive channels. It also
keeps a balance between the availability and requirements of the capital in the
country.
4. Balanced Development of different regions.

INTERNSHIP REPORT

12

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


The ZTBL plays an important role in achieving balanced development in different
regions of the country. They help in transferring surplus capital from developed
regions to the less developing regions. The trade industries etc of less developed
regions are able to get adequate capital for meeting their business needs. This in
turn, increases investment, trade and production in the country.
5. Monetization of the Economy.
The commercial banks by opening branches in the rural and backward areas are
reducing the exchange of goods through barter. The use of money has now
greatly increased the volume of production of goods. The non monetized sector
(barter economy) is now being converted into monetized sector with the help of
commercial banks.
6. Implementation of Monetary Policy.
The central bank of the country controls and regulates volume of credit through
the active cooperation of the banking system in the country. It helps in bringing
price stability and promotes economic growth within shortest possible period of
time. The ZTBL under the supervision and guidance of the SBP help in
implementing and achieving the objectives of the monetary policy which vary
from time to time.
7. Financing Development Projects.
The ZTBL provide short, medium & long term loans for financing of development
projects both in private and public sectors. The ZTBL starts projects with the
Ministry of Food,Agriculture & Livestock (MINFAL) launched an integrated
development program entitled Crop Maximization Project in 15 districts.
The MINFAL will provide funds to the tune of Rs.299.833 millions to the ZTBL and
thus help in accelerating the rate of economic development in the country.
8. Booting the Exports:
In order to boosts the exports of the agriculture and industrial goods of the
Pakistan, the banks have established export promotion cell for the information
and guidance of the exporters.
9. Less Reliance on Foreign Capital:

INTERNSHIP REPORT

13

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


A planed banking system by launching a vigorous campaign of mobilizing idle
saving in the country can meet the capital development requirements from
within the country. The country will thus have to rely less on foreign capital for
financing in the development projects.

AGRICULTURE SECTOR AS BASE FOR PAKISTANS


ECONOMY
Agriculture sector in Pakistan is main pillar for supporting economic condition of
nation. More than 70% of our economy is based on agriculture sector. So, we
have to focus on the fact that how we can strengthen our economy through
agriculture. For agriculture, it is necessary to make irrigation methods effective
and efficient and to make them effective it is necessary to keep the power
supply at continuous level so that continuous growth and development of nation
is ensured.
To observe that how much agriculture contributes towards Pakistans economy,
it can be analyzed through three different ways.

INTERNSHIP REPORT

14

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


1. Agriculture is the main source for providing food to population and fiber for
domestic usage.
2. It is one of the ways of earning foreign exchange through exporting goods to
other countries.
3. It also provides market for industrial goods.
Agriculture sector is playing a central role in Pakistans economy and it is second
largest sector which contributes towards GDP over 26%. It is also responsible for
employing maximum number of employees i.e. 45% of total countrys workforce
is employed in agriculture sector. Almost 62% of Pakistans population is living in
rural areas and they are directly or indirectly associated with agriculture for their
livelihood. Through statistics the linkage of agriculture sector with economy
cannot be explained fully but it is estimated that more than 70% of economy is
based on agriculture. This sector is mainly responsible for providing raw
materials for industry. Otherwise it also contributes to Pakistans exports and it is
a great potential market for industrial products such as pesticides, fertilizers,
tractors, and other agriculture implements.
Agriculture sector is responsible for increasing GDP rate of Pakistan, for providing
employment opportunities, for improvement of rural sector and increasing living
standard of population.
Major crops, which contribute more towards economy, are wheat, rice,
sugarcane, cotton and maize while oil seeds, gram and pulses and fodder crops
are also grown in different areas of country. The dilemma exist in the fact that
despite rapid increase in the Green Revolution era of modern world, there exist a
large gap between actual and expected yield of crops due to prevalent energy
crisis. The trend of last decade show that average yield of some crops is constant
or it is in decreasing trend without any growth and improvement. While the trend
of input costs i.e. cost incurred for these crops is increasing gradually in the form
of fertilizers and pesticides.
As it is explained before that Agriculture sector is base for Pakistan economy,
now in the following section, it is being explained that which overseas countries
are using solar products for agriculture purposes, scenario in Pakistan for using
solar products specifically for agriculture sector, cost-benefit analysis of
agriculture sector by using solar products such as solar tube wells and finally
how solar power can be used for livestock.

HISTORY OF ZTBL:
It was considered after independence of Pakistan that the existing institutional
sources of credit, such as, taccavi and cooperatives, were insufficiently meeting
the credit needs of farmers. Therefore the need for establishment of a third
source of agricultural credit was essentially percolated so as to fulfil the credit
requirements of farmers not only for production but even for the development
purposes. Consequently, the ADFC was brought into existence in 1952 for the
purpose of expanding financial facilities and promoting the development and
modernization of agriculture in the Pakistan. Subsequently in 1957, the ABP was
established that can provide both short term loan for production and long term
loan for development. The ADFC & ABP were merged together as the ADPB in
18th February 1961. The ADPB is the main credit supplier to the agriculture
sector in the country. According to theCompanies Ordinance 1984, the
ZTBL was incorporated as the public limited company on 23th October, 2002.

Promotion in the ZTBL is purely on seniority basis rather than on performance.
This really de-motivates the employees because they know that it doesnt matter
whether they perform well or bad.

Most of the employees work in a particular department and they specialize only

B.Sc., B.A. etc which devaluate the students of MBA, BBA, and other well
qualified staff. So there is a lack of professional staff in different departments
and lack of theoretical knowledge of the employees as well.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE:
I had training in the bank ZTBL positive experience. This experience gave me the
opportunity to analyze and change myself for the better. Internship program
gives me the opportunity to bridge the learning in the classroom with real-life
business requirements. We also know that when any one to enter the
organization for training or for work, the most important thing is his / her
communications skills. So it was the thing that helped me and boosted my
confidence communication skill. As we examined the "Business Communication
Skills" and display during the master's program in business administration, it
gave me the confidence to speak in front of many people. While working as a
detainee in ZTBL, I noticed that the first rule of the game is to respect your
client. As one employee has to listen to what she has to say customers with full
attention and patience. Moreover, the appropriate tactics to convince customers
on your point of view requires great communication skills. Topics such as
finance, accounting, statistics, mathematics, business ... Etc., who studied
through the master's program in business administration that help me to my
understanding of the processes and functions of the Finance and Accounting
Division of ZTBL.
During my internship I improve my soft skills, expand knowledge of related field
and gain experience by work under the highly experienced person, to see the
norms and value of the organization, which may be called the culture of the
organization. Actually all the organizations have their own culture, norms and
value under which the organizations exist. In short, I am really impressed with
INTERNSHIP REPORT

70

ZARAI TARAQIATI BANK LTD.


the friendly and challenging culture of the ZTBL having such a high level of
professionalism, task orientation and event celebrations like 14th August and 6th
September. As internee in the ZTBL, I utilize my communication skills, abilities,
confident; what I have studied till 7th term & now it is time to convert the
theoretical knowledge into the practical knowledge because I will go in the
practical life after some time, so we must aware about the internal working of
organization.

CONSLUSION:
While concluding my report, I would like to say that the internal report usually
covers one academic term, and can be either paid or unpaid. The main purpose
of this training is to develop and strengthen the educational preparation and
professional students. I did my training in ZTBL, and work in the Finance and
Accounts Division. Training objectives included the completion of custom reports
