Synopsis
Introduction & history of Bank Al Habib; The Origin of what is now known as the Habib
Group of companies can be traced to Habib Email, and his association with the firm of Khoja
Mithabani Nathoo, a leading metals dealer established in Bombay in 1841. Habib joined the firm at
the age of 13 for a monthly salary of Rs. 5. Through his hard work and determination he became
partner at the age of 18 and also became the president of the Copper and Brass Merchants
Association.

operations in January 1992. It is a venture of the Habib Group, which owns 50% of the shares - 20 %
shares are owned bank AL Habib was incorporated as a Public Limited Company in October 1991

Management function; basic management function are four types

 Planning
 Organizing
 Leading
 Controlling

External assessment; external shows the external condition that is threat or opportunity for the business

SWOT analysis; SWOT Analysis is a strategic planning method used to evaluate the Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats involved in a project or in a business venture. It involves
specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the internal and external
factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieving that objective.

In which we check out the strength, weakness, opportunity and threats of the business.

PEST analysis; Economic factors; The Pakistan economy is more controlled economy, then one
where market forces reign supreme. Several key institutions are stated owned. Thus a discussion of
the economic forces that influence the private organization such as bank Al Habib cannot ignore the
substantial role played by the government in determining the state of the economy. The biggest
indicator of the heavy role enjoyed by the government was evidence when foreign currency accounts
(FCA’s) were frozen on the orders of the ministry of finance in the wake of explosion tests on may
31st 1998.

Social forces; a low saving culture has offset the huge population advantage this is enjoyed by
Pakistan. Also culture is dedicated by the religion, and in Pakistan a significant segment of the
population is loath to accept interest for their deposits due to the negative religious implications of
such an act.

Technological forces: Banks in the developed world have been turning to heavy IT investments,
which differentiate their products, provide response times, enhance accessibility and improve

customer satisfaction. Though investing in state-of-the-art host banking solution (Fiserv, Kapiti, etc) ,
ATM and POS .

Porter’s five forces

I. Rivalry Among Competing firms;


Bank Al Habib limited is facing a strong competition from other private Pakistani banks like
Metropolitan bank. Soneri bank and Askari Commercial bank. The improved performance of
the nationalized commercial banks (NCBs) is also the threat for the bank Al Habib. Foreign
banks are also competing with the bank for same small medium sized companies. The bank is
overcoming the incentive competition due to its strong reputation as a renowned financial
group in Pakistan and a long history of experience in the banking sector.

II. Potential entry of new competitors;


The entry barriers in this market are high. The new banks need permission from SBP so entry
of new banks is restricted.
III. Development of substitute products;
The non banking financial institutions including development finance institutions (DFIs),
private sector investment banks (PSIBs), leasing corporations (LCs) and Modarbas are almost
in the same line of business and can be treated to the bank.
Bargaining power of suppliers;
The main suppliers in the banking sectors are depositors. Although the bank is given higher
return than any other bank (12% per annum) to attract the depositors but the low innovation in
the product and also low investment in the marketing sector of the bank may provide
difficulties in coming years.
IV. Bargaining power of customers;
The main customers are small traders and exporters based in Karachi and Lahore, majority of
who deal in textile related commodities. Since the bank is targeting the short-term trade
finance market, the bargaining power of customer is substantial as other banks within the
same sector like Habib bank, Bank Al Falah and Metropolitan are fast catching up with the
Bank Al Habib in providing services to the traders.

Internal assessment;

Marketing mix; in marketing mix define the products of the business briefly, pricing of the Bank AL
Habib, promotional activities of the Bank Al Habib and also the placement of the Bank Al Habib.

IMC; Bank Al Habib used the IMC for the promotion of their business in the market. They used the
print media as well as electronic media for the target segment of their customers

Conclusion; BANK Al Habib do well their operation of business. They met their budget effectively
and efficiently.

Suggestion; They should improve interpersonal communication, improve marketing department


easily give the credit to the customer.

previous-to-last century when Esmail Ali of Jamnagar, India, set up a
small utensil factory in Bombay. His son Habib Esmail, born in
1878, founded the House of Habib. Habib was very young when his
father died, forcing him to join the business of his uncle Cassum
Mohammad, owner of Khoja Mithabai Nathoo, merchant, and manufacturer of copper and brass
utensils. It was because of his association with Mithabai Nathoo that Habib Ismaeel came to be known
as Seth Habib Mitha.

Genoa and Vienna. Simultaneously, he began business relationship with Japan and China importing

namely Ahmed Habib, Dawood Habib, Mohammed Ali Habib and Ghulam Ali Habib joined the
business. The firm expanded rapidly - banking remaining a core business.

This in turn led to the formation in 1941 of Habib Bank Ltd. Bombay, as a public limited company.

 Day by day competition is increasing not only of the expansion of the banks but also due to
the launching of the new bank in the market e.g. Barclays.
 Circumstances of Pakistan are a great threat for the existence of the Bank Al Habib.
 More and more banks are launching there operations in Pakistan which is increasing
competition for the Bank AL Habib.
 The conventional banks those having high growth rate and high market share are always
being a threat.
 Large business parties have fewer attractions in being a client of BAL-IBD, mainly because
of excessive amount of documentation.

3.2- PEST analysis:

Political forces;
The events in the last couple of years; the bomb blast of May 28 th 1998 and the subsequent
freezing of the FCA’s, the declaration that Riba is Un-Islamic, and a volatile political scenario that
saw the overthrow of the Nawaz Sharif regime, all contributed in highlighting the important role of
government in the local economy. The freezing of the FCA’s destroyed the confidence of foreign
depositors. Also, the declaration that Riba is against the Sharia, is likely to cause tremendous
uncertainty in the banking sector. After this Pakistan’s army totally holds on the government and push
back the economy. Stability under the new regime is also very important for the economy as a whole.
Continuous political changes have disrupted the policies and objectives as each regime brings with it
its own agenda. Organizations need time to adjust to one regime and then work with it towards
economic enhancement. Due the wrong policies of the government the talibanization also develop in

University of Sargodha (UOS), Sargodha 25


Pakistan and become the international issue in Pakistan and badly affected the Pakistan repute in the
world and promote the uncertain conditions for the business in the Pakistan. Due to this the investors
are not interested in the Pakistan.

Economic factors;
The Pakistan economy is more controlled economy, then one where market forces reign
supreme. Several key institutions are stated owned. Thus a discussion of the economic forces that
influence the private organization such as bank Al Habib cannot ignore the substantial role played by
the government in determining the state of the economy. The biggest indicator of the heavy role
enjoyed by the government was evidence when foreign currency accounts (FCA’s) were frozen on the
orders of the ministry of finance in the wake of explosion tests on may 31 st 1998.

This and the recent efforts by the state bank to artificially lower the interest rates by revising the repo
rates downwards and encouraging lower bids for T-Bill, highlights the overwhelming role of the
government in the economy. Badla rates are a true indication of market rates at which financial
intuitions are willing to lend but the government, under the dictates of the IMF wants to artificially
lower the interest rates so as to provide investment liquidity within the economy.

General Musharaf period of government putt back the economy of the Pakistan due to the wrong
policies of the government for the economic growth in the Pakistan. Pakistan economy destroyed
badly in that 10 to 11 years of the government, and investors hesitated to invest in the Pakistan, and
also the load shading is another factor that effect the Pakistan economy badly.

This not the end of the story after this Pakistan’ economy face lot of problems like bomb attacks in
Pakistan no electricity and the unstable government, due to this the investor are not invest in the
Pakistan and the existing business men finish their business unit due to the loss.

Social forces:
A low saving culture has offset the huge population advantage this is enjoyed by Pakistan.
Also culture is dedicated by the religion, and in Pakistan a significant segment of the population is
loath to accept interest for their deposits due to the negative religious implications of such an act.

About 70% of Pakistan’s population is based on rural areas, thus making it harder for banks to
mobilize their deposits within these regions.

 Habib group also started a school system in Karachi for the cherty purpose.
 They give the funds to the poor person on the daily basis

Technological forces:
Banks in the developed world have been turning to heavy IT investments, which differentiate
their products, provide response times, enhance accessibility and improve customer satisfaction.
Though investing in state-of-the-art host banking solution (Fiserv, Kapiti, etc) , ATM and POS ( point
of sale) networks, visa, MasterCard, and Amex switches, smart cards, telebanking and now internet
banking are common IT investment in the developed world, it is now that these products and services
are gaining faster acceptance in Pakistan.

University of Sargodha (UOS), Sargodha 26


Bank Al Habib change their technology in IT sector due to the requirements of the current time,
before this they have the poor technology of the IT and un less skilled person in that field but at this
time they replace it with the heavy installation of the IT instruments. They hired new skill employed
and trained them for the efficient and effective work.

3.3- Porter’s five forces analysis:


The model of the five competitive forces was developed by Michael E. Porter in his book
“Competitive strategy: Techniques for Analyzing Industries and Competitors” in 1980.

Porter’s model is based on the insight that a corporate strategy should meet the opportunities and
threats in the organizations external environment.

V. Rivalry Among Competing firms;


Bank Al Habib limited is facing a strong competition from other private Pakistani banks like
Metropolitan bank. Soneri bank and Askari Commercial bank. The improved performance of
the nationalized commercial banks (NCBs) is also the threat for the bank Al Habib. Foreign
banks are also competing with the bank for same small medium sized companies. The bank is

University of Sargodha (UOS), Sargodha 27


overcoming the incentive competition due to its strong reputation as a renowned financial
group in Pakistan and a long history of experience in the banking sector.

VI. Potential entry of new competitors;


The entry barriers in this market are high. The new banks need permission from SBP so entry
of new banks is restricted. Also the paid up capital requirement is likely to be raised from
Rs.500 million to Rs.1 billion.

VII. Development of substitute products;


The non banking financial institutions including development finance institutions (DFIs),
private sector investment banks (PSIBs), leasing corporations (LCs) and Modarbas are almost
in the same line of business and can be treated to the bank. Other substitutes that compete
include the national saving certificates, the stock market, its supporting industry and
brokerage houses.
VIII. Bargaining power of suppliers;
The main suppliers in the banking sectors are depositors. Although the bank is given higher
return than any other bank (12% per annum) to attract the depositors but the low innovation in
the product and also low investment in the marketing sector of the bank may provide
difficulties in coming years.
The regulatory bodies could also be the suppliers as they provide guidelines to the bank from
time to time. These include the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), The Corporate Law Authority
(CLA), The Ministry of Finance and the religious board.
IX. Bargaining power of customers;
The main customers are small traders and exporters based in Karachi and Lahore, majority of
whom deal in textile related commodities. Since the bank is targeting the short-term trade
finance market, the bargaining power of customer is substantial as other banks within the
same sector like Habib bank, Bank Al Falah and Metropolitan are fast catching up with the
Bank Al Habib in providing services to the traders.
