PREFACE
ALLAH says in the Holy Quran, "Man finds nothing but for what he struggles".
Man is always mistaken. The only thing that a man can do is struggle. Actions are in the hand of
a man but the results are always in the hands of ALLAH Almighty.
Being a student of B.COM Hons, it was a struggle demanding deed to prepare internship report
on MCB. I have made efforts and struggles to my extent but the results; let's see what comes
from it.
Considering the significance of service sector, I decided to select the organization which is
related to it i-e MCB (The Muslim Commercial Bank) which plays a major role in the
development of the country.
Everyone knows the role of banking in services industry. So I finalized The MCB Bank as my
concerned organization as it performs a large number of services in the whole country. This was
my 1st practical experience ever.
As I started the work of internship, I thought about how to start but now as I am writing these
words by the grace of ALLAH.

Segmentation Strategy
Marketing consist of buyers, and buyers differs in one or more ways. Customers are different in
their need, wants, resources, locations, buying, attitude and buying practices. MCB is also using
segmentation strategy by dividing the whole market into segments and search the right customer
for their right product. Banks do segment demographically and geographically. In demographical
segmentation, banks differentiate customers by their age, gender, education and in geographical
segmentation, customers are separate by their area. Through segmentation banks divide large
heterogeneous markets into smaller segments that can be reached more effectively with products
and services.
MCB segments its customers. For example, if the customer is near to retire, MCB offers the
MCB Retire Easy Plan for the persons who are retiring from their jobs.
Target marketing means after segmentation of the area, now you have to target your customers.
You have to find out the right customer for the right product. Develop measures for segment
attractiveness, select target market.
MCB targets all types of customers in the country. Suppose MCB has branch in the market area
where all shop are around the bank so MCB‟s target is all shopkeeper and for their better
business allow them to open an current account ,single account, joint account ,business account.
MCB allows the customer to open account which is suitable for him/her.
Product planning and development means develop a product according to your customer‟s needs,
wants and demands and give features what the customer wants. Every product is made by the
43
Gift University
head office of the MCB. Promotional activities update the features and benefits about the product
and this is settled by marketing department of the MCB. First bank typically generate many ideas
in order to find out a few good ones. Major sources of idea include customer wants and demands.
When the idea generation is done then bank do idea screening.
Product Management
As you can understand by the name, product management means manage the product. Bank has
to manage its products whether they are entertaining the customer or not. If not, then MCB
should update their features to entertain the
customers. MCB provides better products to its customers, maintains the products and also
includes new features to the product if needed.
Positioning
Positioning is a process of fit the picture of your products, brands and organization image in the
customer‟s mind. MCB has strong image in its customer ‟s mind by its strong products, wide
range of network in the Pakistan and across the country. MCB also do advertise through
newspapers, broachers, television, billboards, hoarding and personal dealings. Positioning is how
you want to show yourself in front of customers. MCB do advertise and try to positioning to the
customer ‟s mind and also aware the customers about the product.
Pricing Strategy
Price is the amount of money which is charged for a product or service or the sum of the value
the consumers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or service. Price has been
the major factor affecting the buyer/consumer choice. This is also another method to help bank ‟s
overall performance. Before setting price the employee must look the relationship between price
and demand. Pricing strategy is the most important strategy because price can generate revenue
of the product and price tells the worth of the product. It is so difficult process to estimate the
mind of the customer that he will adapt this product with the offering pricing or not. MCB
charges different price with the different product and services .Suppose you are availing the
benefit of ATM card so you have to pay 500 per year and if you are having any locker of small
size, then you are paying 1500 to 1800 to the banks as service charges.

Distribution Strategy
Distribution means movement of goods and services from producer to consumer. So MCB has
opened many branches all over the Pakistan to entertain its customers and customers may have
easy access to products and services of bank. Management selects the area where should open a
branch. Distributing is one of the marketing mix strategies.MCB has many branches in the
country and also overseas.
Competitive Strategy
To be competitive, MCB 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 Pakistan.
MCB also has 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 has been
expanded to Lahore, Multan, 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 have also been taken up which will be important for
the bank in years to come. A private company has been formed in Hong Kong (fully owned
45
Gift University
subsidiary of MCB) in partnership with Standard Chartered Bank, handling trade transactions of
selected countries in the Asia-Pacific region. It is projected to earn US$ 1 million in its first year
of operations. To increase its international presence, the bank has opened 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 are 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.

Future Outlook of M CB
The effectiveness of the economic reforms was the main concern in 2011 as the country
is highly volatile with respect to the systematic risks.
The pace of the growth of loan infection is likely to reduce in the coming quarters. The
maintenance of the discount rates is the key factor to curtail the inflationary pressure on
the cost of credit. Infrastructural developments, control on war on terror, power shortage
mitigation, encouraging the private sector, trim in the political instability and the
sustainability of the tax reforms in order to meet the international debt are the likely
factors of focus in the upcoming year.
We are hopeful, given the increasing foreign reserves and reviving investor confidence,
the economic conditions will be comfortably better than previous years.
From the Banks perspective, the focus will be provision of value added services via
operational expansion and technological improvements.
Effectiveness of the Banks risk management systems, capitalization on low cost liability
franchise, disciplined expense growth, expansion of our capital base and strengthened
compliance culture are primary factors in depicting continued strong financial soundness.
Effective leadership with a clear vision is the key element of long term sustainability
leading to highest levels of employee satisfaction and our aim is to build cohesive teams
and strong ethical standards.
We will strive to enhance our domestic as well as global image to take the Bank from
strong to stronger. Corporate Awards and Recognition

MCB bank officers are considered as the most able professionals in the banking world. In my
observation MCB officers interact with the customers as they are their personal friends and
used to solve their problems as their own.
The customer's perception for MCB is very high due to compassionate and personalized
services of the officers. Customers feel secure while dealing with MCB and they also have
trust.
The branches of MCB are opened in commercial areas in order to save customers from
facing problems to reach the bank.
The security system is very good in MCB.
Employees are given with good facilities.
Internal computer system in MCB is very reliable and easy to use. Every information is
computerized.
There is properly maintained data.
The management prepares a financial statement which shows the state of affairs, cash flows,
the result of operations of state of affairs, & equity changes.
MCB follows the timelines specified by SBP for implementation of recommend ations.

industry.
WEAKNESS:
MCB has number of products and services but any advertisement on electronic media is
not given.
During my internship, I observed that employees have a lot of burden of work. The work
should be distributed equally between the employees on the basis of their capabilities and
their post

Critical Analysi s
I deliberated organization and their strategies, rules and regulation. In MCB, there is solid
communication between the employees and management. The planning and selection process of
MCB is very good.
Organization structure of MCB bank is well developed is designed in such a way that it fulfill the
need of bank. Different department nets are created which are well coordinated through the
structure. Every department performs their function in efficient manners.
In MCB bank, various areas of country and different division under the head offices managed by
systematic board with decentralization of authority. Various decisions of minor importance are
made through control purpose, so there is centralized or decentralized in esteem.
Benevolent authoritative and participative authoritative system is used in MCB. And vertical
chain of command are used, orders are passed from top management to lower one.
MCB employees are satisfied from their job and their seniors are happy from their performance.
MCB selection process is based on interviews and qualification. They select and hire the
essential employees for the compulsory job that‟s why there are fewer chances of dissatisfaction.
In MCB, they give superior training for selected employees, management system of MCB is very
nice. In MCB they collaborate with every one wherever they need help.
Although the processes in MCB are good but improvement is always needed. MCB need to
improve their management skills, planning for selection and hiring process. Also they should
think about the need and want of employees that why they don‟t perform very well as they need.
Some employees are not satisfied their current salaries they get from the bank and their
performance is not good. Also the employees don‟t get ranks according to their performance and
experience. This creates hate and discrimination among
61
Gift University
employees and managers, because they want their right compensation which the deserve. So
unhappy employees are less faithful towards organization.
While satisfied employees are more productive, inventive and faithful. As verified, job
satisfaction principle increases employee confidence, which leads to amplified employees
performance.
Performance of employees directly affected by the role and behavior of supervisors, the work
environment, duty hours, salaries, job security, rewards and promotions. There must be proper
methods and planning for employee hiring. Every department must have their own authority.
Management structure style must be standardized as required. It‟s the responsibility of
supervisors to take care of their employees and help them in every difficult task where they need
help from them.
Employees of MCB don‟t feel secure about their jobs and future. They are always in tension due
to their current job and worried for future. This affects their performance badly.
The employees in MCB often feel over work load as the work schedule is tough and also work
load is too heavy, which makes them mentally tired and their performance and satisfaction also
becomes low.
Structure of Human Resources Department is very complicated one, depending upon the
requirement of the bank. This department is controlled by president, group head of Human
resource Management and divisional head of HRM.
62
Gift University
Head of compensation managers, head of HR operations, head of DAC requirement and training,
head of organizational development has different departments under their control at lower level
and responsible for proper working of the department. The structure is well designed to meet the
requirement of the organization.
The main function of HR department is to arrange the required human resources for the
organization and make policies for development of human resources.
Employees requirement and selection policies of MCB in such a way that a suitable and fruitful
candidate can be obtained.
After selection, the employees are given training, so that the employees can get the required
abilities for the performance of tasks assigned to him in efficient manners. Employees are also
provided benefits like increment, promotions, medical facilities, loan facilities, pension and some
other benefits. It creates encouragement in the employees to their task according to given
standards and play a role in the progress of the organization.
Policy is principle or rule to make decisions that result in required outcomes. MCB bank has
developed different policies like consumers credit policy, privacy policies, business policies,
recruitment policies, employee‟s development policies, loan policies, service and product
policies, operational policies, monitoring policies and some other related policies that are helpful
for the proper functioning and operation of banking function.

There is no separate customer interaction department but there is a customer service officer
whose name is Miss Noreen Akhtar. So I sit with her to provide information to customers.
Flooring
A greeter or working as a phone operator is also one of the fundamental duties of a customer
services officer. As a greeter, the customer services officer perform the following duties and
functions:

To make calls to people required by the bank employees

Being a greeter is very tough job, as a greeter has to deal with different types of customers. They
may have angry, rude behavior and it is the great responsibility that the customer should not
enter in the bank without any directional guidance from the greeter. One has to remain alert at all
times while serving as a greeter.

Recommendations
From the quantum of the profit and its financial data, it can easily judged that after privatization
Muslim Commercial Bank is performing very well. Its deposits are growing day-by-day and so
its profitability. The controlling body is responsible for the productive pe rformance of the bank.
Following are my observations and suggestion to improve the efficiency for the development of
the bank.
Increase in Profits
People can be motivated to save money by offering the deposit through various investment
schemes. The rate of profit should increase 1% or 2 % it would be profitable step for bank.
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.
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. Their promotion
policy should be adjusted accordingly.
Training
Every year some of the employees should be sent for training to other countries and employees
from other branches should be brought here. Some more reading material should be provided the
purpose should be to educate the employees with the advance studies in their field. The
employee should be provided the opportunities to attend and participate in seminars and lectures
on banking.
71
Gift University
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.
Smart, educated, skilled, well spoken and well versed staff personals should be rewarded and
appreciated, while on the other hand lazy, lethargic, heard, rough-dealers and ill mannered must
be warned and penalized but this all should be on merit and considering the policy of honesty is
the best policy and not due to some personal liking, disliking prejudice and patrimonial. It is
therefore suggested certain schemes and checks may be introduced in banks to increase
efficiency through reward and punishment system.
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.
Logic leads to promotional campaign through employers who are customers of the banks and
their employees are paid in cash. Such business accounts should be encouraged to open the
accounts of their employees with the banks. It might be worth offering free banking for a specific
period to new accounts or simply publicizing the services available by means of posters at the
employer‟s premises.
Internship Facilities
The period of internship should be divided in to the number of department of the Muslim
Commercial Bank Ltd. The internee should be given timetable mentioning the number of days
he/she has to work at different places in the bank. On the first 4 days in each department internee
should be given a lecture the officer of the department concerned about working of the
department.
