Organization Profile
1.1 Description of the Organization
The development of any country largely depends upon the economic health and
conditions of the country. Nowadays the financial institutions are viewed as catalyst
of the economic growth process. The mobilization of the domestic resource is one of
the key factors in the economic development of the country. Commercial banks and
other financial institutions collect immobilized money in the form of deposits from
every corner and parts of the country. This will provide capital for the development of
the industry, trade and business and other resources deficit sectors. Commercial bank
formulates sound investment policies to make it more effective, which eventually
contribute to the economic development of the country. Formulation of sound
investment policies and coordinated and planned effort pushes forward the forces of
economic growth.
Bank can be defined as financial intermediary between depositors and entrepreneurs
that offer the widest range of financial services especially credit saving and payments
services and perform the widest range of financial function of any business firm in the
economy. According to Kent, “A bank is an organization whose principal operations
concerned with the accumulation of the purpose of the temporarily ideal money of
public for the purpose of advancing to other expenditure by these divinations”.
Commercial banks are the heart of our economy system. They hold the deposit of
millions of persons, government and business units. They make funds available
through their lending and investing activities to borrowers, individuals, business firms
and government. Thus, their task is to provide a collecting point for saving of
relatively small average amount from a large number of individual sources and invest
them into a productive and needed sector of the country so as to develop the nation.
Banks are still the principal means of making payments, through the checking
accounts, credit cards and electronic transfer services they offer.

As of Q4 2072, the bank has an EPS of Rs.43.52 and as of Q4 2073, the bank has EPS
of Rs.55.64. With a closing price of Rs.494, the PE ratio turns out to be just 11.35.
The bank would be considered undervalued even in normal circumstances but given
the current level of the market and the average PE ratio of the banking industry
(which is 28.54), the bank is highly under-valued. The bank distributed 31.58% cash
dividend in FY 2069/70 and 8.79% cash in FY 2070/71.At present the bank paid
1.05% cash dividend which is around 96% decrease in comparison to FY 2069/70.
The bank distributed 21.05% bonus in FY 2073/74, which is similar to previous year.
The dividend for this year depends on the bank’s capital plan. Regardless, the bank’s
dividends are sure to be more than what it distributed the previous year.
The bank managed to write back Rs.623 million and still has Rs.561 million in loan
loss provisions. If the bank manages to write back more of its provisions, the bank’s
net profit will increase even further. The bank’s earnings per share which had
remained above Rs.60 from FY 2066/67 to FY 2069/70 fell to Rs.43.52 and Rs.55.64
in FY 2071/72 and FY 2072/73 respectively. In fiscal year 2073/74 the EPS is
53.67%. This might seem alarming but this actually healthier. The current EPS
represents the earnings from the bank’s core business instead of earnings from the
sale of assets. The EPS is sustainable and will only grow in the future if the bank
manages to perform well.
The bank profitability ratio that is (ROA and ROE has been decreasing currently in
comparison to the previous year. The ROA is lowest in fiscal year 2073/74 with the
ratio value of 7.32% which shows the bank has not been utilizing its assets more
efficiently than previous years. The bank’s CD ratio currently stands at 76.09% .The
bank’s liquidity ratio stands at 31.18%.

wastage and lost opportunities due to delays in operations and idle or non-productive

CHAPTER-2
Job Profile and Activities Performed
During two months of my internship period in Agriculture DevelopmentBank
Limited, I was placed in various departments where I performed lots of activities,
solved various problems and learnt lot of new things.
2.1 Job Profile

responsibilities of a position. Specifically, a job profile developed by the personnel
department of a business might include such things as job responsibilities, required

As an intern I got to know many operations of Agriculture Development Bank Ltd but
in ledger and cash departments many things were still left untouched. I was not
allowed to know everything in the bank as there were confidential information and
that could be leaked so there was a restriction for interns which didn’t allow me to
learn to my capacity. But still I have learnt many things in Agriculture Development
Bank Limited.
Customer Service Department (CSD)
CSD is the front desk of an organization, where the customers first get the service.
When any customer visits the institution then the first impression of the institution is
given by the customer service department. As the name suggests, this department is
primarily involved in providing services to the customers from answering the queries

2.2 Activities Performed
During internship period of two months in ADBL, New Baneshwor Branch, it helped
me to gain the knowledge on how the employees work under hierarchy and about the
organization’s design and structure also about the flow of chain of command in a real
organization. Some of the departments where I worked as intern in ADBL are
discussed below.
2.2.1 Customer Service Department
The main purpose of this department is to provide various services to the customers
who visit the bank. It is the important department of an organization. It basically
details with the issue of cheque book, the opening and closing of various types of
account as per the customer requirement, the maintenance of bank statement, provides
various cards such as ATM, Credit card, SMS banking, Debit card, etc. Main task I
performed during my internship in CSD are.
 Account Opening
At ADBL, New Baneshwor, I got to learn about account opening, where I was given
task to help customer for filling the form of both individual and corporate customer
and check if the required documents are complete or not. After checking the
documents and the form if it is filled up properly or not, I had perform a software
scanning called AML check and only then an account for individual and corporate are
opened only if the AML screening is clear. But if the screening showed up some
unusual things, I would forward to compliance and wait for reply then only start a
process for opening account in software of bank.
 Know Your Customer (KYC)
Those customers who didn’t have enough information according to the changing rules
of Nepal Rastra Bank, they need to fill up KYC form. During my internship I updated
the KYC of the customer through Pumori system.
 Balance Inquiry
As CSD is front desk of the bank, customer directly comes to interacting in this
department. I got to learn about the process of balance checking because the first
thing that any customer would want to know was the balance they have on their
account. I was taught to tell the balance only if the account holder is asking which can
be identified through their signature card and other were allow to know the balance.
 Providing Bank Statement
A bank statement shows the entire banking transaction of the account. I was trained
how to print bank statement for individual customers, and corporate customer. For
individual customer they need to fill up the bank statement request form with their
account number, name, date from when they want the statement and most
importantly, their authorized signature. But for the corporate customers, if they sent a
third party to receive a bank statement they need to write an application with their
account number, authorized stamp, proprietor’s authorized signature and receiver’s
name, mobile number and identity card. After verifying the authorized signature only
then I was allowed to provide bank statement.

 Printing and Providing Cheque


A Cheque is the most needed thing for account holder. I was trained how to print
cheque. If the customer is issuing a cheque, requisition slip should be fill up including
their account number, account name and authorized signature. The customer who
issue a cheque for a first time can get only 10 leafs of cheque and for second and more
than that customer can get more than 10 leafs. If third party receives the cheque bank
need to record receiver’s name, mobile number and identity card before providing
thecheque to them.
 Mobile Banking and Internet Banking Activation and Deactivation
Mobile banking and internet banking are software that allows customer to enquire the
balance, fund transfer, getting statement and so on. ADBL, New Baneshwor Branch
has taught me about the process of activation and deactivation the customer mobile
banking and internet banking as per their request. The customer needs to fill up the
mobile banking form with their name, mobile number and their authorized signature.
The customer need to fill up internet banking form with another additional terms and
condition, including account holder name ,e-mail address and authorized signature
And the mobile banking system and internet banking system are activated through
intranet software only after the verification of the provided signature.
 Pension related activities
Some of the major activities carried out by me during my intern period are pension
related activities since the bank is Ratnapark branch of Agriculture Development
Bank.
Government provide pension to the civil servants. The pension holder must renew
their pension ID in each and every 6 month otherwise their salary will not be credited
in their pension account. I as an intern performed the following pension related
activities:
 Pension patta renew
 After receiving the complaint from the customer about their salary not
credited in their account, I first checked the customer transactions and
personal detail.
 I then renewed his/her pension patta
 Pension holder must be present for the renew of pension patta so, I
made sure the pension patta holder was present at the time of renewal
of patta.
 I then recorded the name of pension holder, patta number and account
number in the renew form
 In the renew form, the pension holder need to sign and make the finger
print identification so I took their authorized signature and finger print
 Then I wrote the renewal date on the last page of patta.
 Then the salary was credited in their respective account after renewing
their pension ID and account number.
 Pension Update
 I used pension management system software
 I entered the patta number in the system for pension update in pension
presence.
 I checked the pension ledger to verify the pension payment for the
month.
 Birendra Payment
 I checked the kalyankari patta for the payment.
 I Performed EOD and restarted the system.
 I updated the pension holder in the system and made the required
payment.
 I printed the payment slip.
 I provided the slip to the pension holder and sent to in charge for
approval and payment.
 Account Closing
At ADBL, New Baneshwor branch, I got to learn about account closing which is
performed if the customer does not want to operate their account for certain reasons
they need to bring some documents like; original citizenship for individual customer
and all the original certificates with members agreements for corporate customers. To
close an account, an account holder need to bring all the products and services
provided by the bank such as, cheque book, ATM Cards and so on and their account
should be KYC updated.
2.2.2 Electronic Cheque Clearing Department
ECC department in Nepal is operated by Nepal Clearing House Ltd. The presenting
bank sends an electronic image of the cheque along with the relevant information like
the MICR code line data, date of presentation, presenting bank, etc., to the clearing
house. The clearing house forwards the images along with data files to the drawee/
paying bank. The paying bank branch takes the ‘Pay’ or ‘No-Pay’ decision based on
the image of the cheque.
I used to work as a presenting bank and send the cheque to the Pay Bank. I used to file
the presented cheque, returned cheque, and honored cheque in ECC department.
2.3 Problems Faced and Solved
During my internship in NBL, I learned many new things. Though my internship was
productive, I also encountered some problems. The major problems that I faced
during my internship and the measures taken to sort them out are as follows.
2.3.1 Problems Faced
The major problems that I faced during my internship in ADBL are.
 Task Related Problems
As I was new to the bank, I lacked necessary skills and knowledge required to
perform the task efficiently. Performing some tasks were quite intimidating initially as
I had no knowledge of it.
 Communication Issues
Being new to the organization and the organization culture, initially I faced with
communication issues with other employees in the organization.
 Handling Customers
Handling Customers in CSD was not an easy task for me during my early days of
internship.
2.3.2 Problems Solved
Having faced the above mentioned basic problems, I tried to solve them diligently by
putting effort and applying various measures to improve my performance as well as
the organization’s performance. Some of the attempts to solve the problem are.
 Once I became familiar with other employees and my supervisor, I put my
problem on the given task forward and asked them to help me out. It not
only improved my communication and interpersonal skills but also helped
me perform the given task properly.
 With the passage of time I became familiar with my work and it helped me
to boost my confidence and handle the customers effectively.
 I kept list of the task and projects that I had accomplish during my time as
intern which helped me to remember the experiences I had learnt.
2.4 Intern’s Key Observation
I joined ADBL, New Baneshwor as an intern in customer service department in-order
to enhance my knowledge in practical way. Being part of the organization has helped
me significantly to learn about the working culture and the situation of bank. The time
I had spent with ADBL, was very fruitful and supportive to my career through which I
had gained valuable work experience. The key observation that I had during my
internship period were.
 Organization Culture
Organizational culture is a system of shared assumptions, values, and beliefs which
governs how people behave in an organizations. As a government bank the
organizational culture at ADBL is motivating, encouraging and maintains the
discipline. They were monitored with the help of finger print scanner. I observed the
employees had proper dress code and were punctual.
 Working Environment
The working environment of ADBL was very friendly towards me. If the working
environment was stressful at that time assistant manager use to crack the jokes and
make some fun and create the normal environment. The behavior shown by customers
was friendly and cordial and was understandable towards me.
 Co-operation by Co-workers
Cooperation in the workplace with co-workers is integral to the ability of all workers
to complete projects and assignments successfully. An effective workplace requires
employees who know how to work together to get the job done. The co-workers at
ADBL, New Baneshwor branch were really very cooperative. I felt very much
comfortable to work with them. I observed a good line open communication with co-
workers on the other hand the staffs behaved in a polite respectful manner. The
employees were co-operative and helpful towards customers as well as me.
 Behavior of Supervisor
Supervisor is a person in the first-line management who monitors and regulates
employees in their performance of assigned or delegated tasks. At ADBL, New
Baneshwor Mr.Nabaraj Baral supervises the employees and interns. He has cool, calm
personality and he had treated every employee very well and taught me the entire task
effectively by motivating and encouraging. His behavior towards me was supportive,
motivating, encouraging and caring. Also, other employee’s behavior towards me was
very pleasant, supportive and motivating.
 Working Process and Technology
Technology is one of the major factors that minimize the operational cost and increase
the efficiency ADBL, New Baneshwor has all the latest technologies and modern
working process for functioning. The banks has computers, scanners and printer in
each departments, CCTV cameras to supervise, cash counting machine, ATM and so
on for the effective work processing.
Chapter-3
Lessons Learnt and Feedback
While working at ADBLas an intern, I had one of the great experiences, which will be
very helpful in my future life. I am now more visualized about the bank. Bank should
have potential and skilled manpower. No matter what is their qualification, they must
give 100 percent in their work. It is the idea and innovation of staffs that leads the
bank to the success. Through internship, I have developed communication,
interpersonal skills, somewhere leadership skills and built the knowledge base about a
specific field.
I practiced a higher level of responsibility and confidence, understood the gap
between theoretical knowledge and practical field got familiarized with office
equipment and understood the similarities between bank and college culture. There is
advance working process and modern technology used for functioning.
3.1 Key Skills Learnt
Gap between theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge can be observed during
internship period. Internship provides an opportunity to work and get knowledge and
skills required at that workplace. Some skills that I learned at ADBL are as follows.
 Operative Skill
I have learnt to make different entries while recording the ledger and opening the
account of the customers also I have learnt to open and close different types of
account, learnt about updating KYC and TAML. I have learnt the process of issuing
and printing cheque books and checking balance of the customers. I have learnt the
process of issuing ATM card. I have learned to identify different types of legal
documents.
 Communication Skill
The regular interaction with the customers helped me a lot to develop communicating
skills. I came to know about, how to present oneself in front of the customers in such
a way so that customers feel satisfied in every aspect about their queries that had been
presented. Convincing power to the customers increased while dealing with them. I
learnt to deal various commercial as well as others levels bank staffs.
 Interpersonal Skill
As working in theADBL, I have developed interpersonal skills to communicate with
others easily in the bank. I had to talk and understand every employee and their
demands and queries. I have developed mass facing ability, facing various types of
customers. In addition, working in CSD of ADBL, I also learnt the importance of
being cheerful, patient and responsive to the customers at workplace.
 Technical Skill
Before internship I was unable to use any of the technical instruments like printers,
computers, scanner and different software of the bank. Hence, I learnt the basic
necessary skills for operating, printing, using computers, scanner and software after
internship and it was only possible because bank placed me in customer care
department and electronic cheque clearing department and taught to perform activities
related to it. Hence, it developed my technical skills.
3.2 Attitudes Learnt
As the intern in the ADBL, I have learnt few other things apart from the skills and
that is attitudes toward the organization and co-workers. I used to feel uncomfortable,
nervous while interacting with anyone but after completing my internship I boosted
up with confidence as I have learnt attitudes like to boost confidence level to
communicate and co-ordinate with strangers which I lacked before working in this
organization. Some other attitudes that I have learnt during my internship are follows.
 Positive Attitude
The positive attitudes that were developed are as follows.
• I found most of the staffs in the organization were helpful and co-operative which
helped me to gain working knowledge and perform different tasks.
• I was punctual and obedient towards my work and organizations management that
helped me to drive positive attitude towards management.
• I learnt that behavioral issues are the most important inside the organization and
customers feel satisfied when they are behaved properly.
• The working environment of ADBL, New Baneshwor Branch was very friendly,
comfortable and satisfying which gave me energy to work more actively.
 Negative Attitude
Some of the pleasing work at ADBL, New Baneshwor Branch gave me positive
attitude but there are some negative approaches as well that I suffered during my
internship period are as follow.
• Many customers were not satisfied with ATM services and machines provided by
the bank.
• Loafing off by some team members could lead to huge negative impacts on the
overall team performance.
• I perceived that employee showed different assertiveness towards different
customers.
There are various attitudes toward different people and environment and some of
them are as follow.
 Attitude Learnt Towards Customers
After concealing with the customers during my internship period I came to know that
customers are the assets of any business. I had learnt both positive and negative
attitude towards customer. Some customers behave so well and behavior of some
customers was not so good. Sometime it was difficult for me to handle all customers
at a time.
 Attitude Learnt Towards Supervisor
My attitude towards supervisor was positive. Supervisor used to visit my department
in the bank and helped me if I got any trouble while working. Supervisor helped on
making banking environment familiar to me in my internship period onADBL. They
treated every employee including me equally so my attitude towards him was
positive.
 Attitudes Learnt Towards Co-worker
As working as intern in the bank, I came to know that some co-workers were polite
and some were not .Most of the co-workers in the bank were helpful and co-operative,
they helped me in learning process and gave me an idea about how to perform various
activities which helped me to build positive attitude towards them. They encouraged
me to work in team and create good working environment in bank.
 Attitude Learnt Towards Working Environment
During my internship period, I was familiar towards the working environment of
ADBL. I found working environment of the bank was good for all interns and
employees because of which I performed my work without any disturbance. Working
environment of ADBL was friendly, comfortable and satisfying for me and other
employees as well.
 Attitude Learnt Towards Overall Perception
Before working in bank as an intern I used to think that bank jobs were boring. But
after I did my internship in ADBL, my perception and attitude towards working at
banks has changed. I motivated to build my career in the banking field after
completion of my internship. Before starting internship I used to be uncomfortable
and nervous while interacting with anyone. But, during internship period I dealt with
different customers and agents which helped me to build confidence. So, this
internship program built positive attitude within me towards career at banks.
3.3 Feedback to the Bank
During the internship period, it was discovered that the bank has been performing its
functions very effectively through the coordination and efforts of the bank employees
and the administrationADBL also accepts deposits and lending loans, which seemed
to be passiveness of the bank. But now the bank has analyzed the current growing
scenario of the banking scope and thus increased its pace of banking transactions and
strategies. The financial position of ADBL is concluded to be in satisfactory position.
The bank has provided loan on unproductive sectors for short, medium, and long
term. Besides these, ADBL seems to be not satisfying its customer needs properly.
Customers are unsatisfied due to its slow working procedures and low interest rates
on its products and services. Still the bank needs to review the management and adopt
the better technologies. The working method is too slow. Every transaction is posted
manually into register and then into computer, which makes work lengthy and
complicated too. More training must be provided to the staff in short interval of time
so that they become familiar with the new modern technology. Moreover, staffs are
not familiarized with the latest skills and technologies. Traditional procedures are still
adopted, which certainly delays service delivery and leads to customer dissatisfaction.
This must be stopped by upgrading the technology used in the bank and its branches.
However, there are few things to be checked upon, within the bank and they are as
follows.
• Photocopy machines should be in a condition and it should be quite enough to
facilitate all the staffs.
• The organization should improve its departmental overload which is now for few
staff only.
• The operations should be systematized in proper flow of the work.
• The bank should provide adequate resource plan and policies for career
development, reward, and facilities on the basis of performance.
• The bank should initiate the systematic record–keeping. The scientific system
should be used while filing. The indexing should be encouraged.
• ADBL should increase the number of ATM machines both within and outside the
valley so as to attract more customer towards the bank.
3.4 Feedback to the College/University
The internship program is to be conducted by the students as per the requirement of
the university. It is also a responsibility of the college to provide good and practical
opportunities to the students to impart the real world situations. The experience from
the workplace can help interns to gain necessary skills and knowledge that can
improve their career. Therefore, here are some proposals for the college/university.
• The time period for the intern should be extended more so, that we can develop our
skill, knowledge and the job experience and also can learn the organizational culture.
• Regular monitoring should be done by the supervisor regarding the involvement of
the students.
• University should do negotiation with some big industrial houses, and financial
institutions so that there won’t be any hurdles for us while searching internship.
• The college should conduct different types of educational programs and invite the
organizations so that they will be aware about the talent of the students.
• The internship program would be effective if it was in the eighth semester. It would
be easier for the student to join the organization if an offer will be made.

good environment and giving such golden opportunity to learn practically beyond
classroom and learn about work culture and environment.
