Executive Summary

The purpose of my report was to find out about AIBL's performance in the Digital Banking
section and customer satisfaction based on the online service provided by the bank. I
prepared this report based on a three-month internship program that I successfully completed
from AIBL to the Shamoly branch.

Started working on February 1st, 2021 which is a requirement of my MBA program.


Working as an intern, I had the opportunity to learn how the whole company works, and the
experience was different from the theoretical experience.

I have encountered many difficulties in many phases of my business. I also tried to get over
every point. AL-Arafah Islami Bank Limited is a bank registered financial institution. It must
comply with the rules and regulations written by Bangladesh by the Bangladesh Bank for
Banking Trade.

1.1 Introduction:
An internship is an opportunity that companies give to potential employees, called
apprentices, to go to work for some company or organization for some time. Internships
usually last less than recent graduates or students, and most internships last up to one to three
months. The internship can be part-time or full-time, whichever internship is possible or
desired. In Bangladesh, school enthusiasts have always been independent.

1.2 Literature Review:


 Electronic Banking:
Electronic banking, commonly referred to as online banking / internet banking, is one
of the great benefits of an international internet connection that has made products
shine. Easier, less time-consuming and safer. E-commerce, in the e-banking sector,
means only the exercise of personal activities on the Internet from anywhere, at any
time, through the protection of banking services.
E-banking allows its customers to pay, receive payments, even do business with
foreign customers easily and securely, save time for those services very short. Banks
and financial institutions around the world are getting their money in e-banking fast.
Sending and receiving money from one country to another is easier than it is now. The
use of computer and e-banking information in banks has allowed banks to reduce
rates in a number of ways, allowing them to offer better interest rates to their
customers. . In addition, managing an online account is easier and cheaper than
keeping records.
E-banking allows customers to save time without having to lag behind to get services
within the company. E-banking services are implemented, such as mobile banking.

 Customer Satisfaction:
Customer satisfaction is usually defined as the decision after the customer about a product or
service, customer satisfaction is defined as understanding, measurement and psychosis for the
previous consumer with the product / service. Thus, it is true that 5 customer satisfaction is
the result of behavior following the behavior of the customer, which is the result of
comparing the benefits. be good with the model.

incorporates the various aspects of digital marketing tools and techniques and its effects on
the bank's performance.

1.7Limitation:
Despite my sincerest undertaking in setting up an ideal report, a portion of the impediments
are inevitable. These are as per the following:

 Inside quite a short timeframe, it was impractical for me to know everything about
AL-Arafah Islami Bank, Shamoly branch.
 The officials are so much busy that they can't appropriately co-work with me, which
are an issue.
 Bank's strategy of not unveiling some information and data for evident explanation,
which could be a lot of valuable.
 To investigation SWOT of developing business sector is a wide spread review
material. Nonetheless, time imperative limited the report to explicit element.
 The examination expects insight to be productive however it was totally missing to
me.
 Absence of individual information and experience.
 Due to time restrictions huge numbers of the perspectives couldn't be examined in the
report.

Though I have arranged numerous reports previously, I had no experience of internship. So,
freshness is one of the principle requirements of the investigation.

Digital Marketing of AIBL

3.1 E-Banking:

©Daffodil International University


14
E-banking is a special type of bank where the exchange of electricity revenue is made by
sending and receiving special electronic signals, rather than by check, money order or other
means information. Currency transfers take effect immediately when a user uses his or her
card to pay for any purchase or when he or she withdraws money from an ATM, the money is
transferred and deducted directly and cash electricity. Today, banks have always offered their
customers a wide range of services, such as customer acceptance, electronic betting,
electronic payments, and more. Apart from ordinary banks that have both physical and online
availability, few electronic banks are only available online. These funds are only available
online and are available online. HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is used to provide
online deposits to customers. User’s access users with a bank account on a computer and all
personal information of users is stored in the bank’s central bank. E-banking is also used by
financial institutions to sell financial products to their customers, do business with retailers or
provide financial services.

3.2 Types of E-Banking:

Informational:
The e-banking information is associated with the basic elements of the financial institution
and is used only by the banker for commercial and bank support purposes. These templates
are used to inform the target public about the bank's new conditions, but do not allow
communication between the bank and its customers. This aspect of e-banking is usually
managed by the bank itself or can be outsourced to third parties.

Communicative:
The e-banking channel is widely used in banks because it allows interaction between the bank
and its customers. Even if the interaction level is low, for example, customers can request a
balance in the cash register, a cash register in the account, request a simple data transfer, and
so on. These steps are popular because almost every bank has passed through the computer
and now 14 bank employees can check customers, their chips and all other user certificate
from the service center. All bank processes have become robust and protected from e-bank
communications.
Transactional:

15
The most popular form of e-banking is e-banking. This method allows users to instantly
transfer funds, make deposits, and withdraw at any time. This gives users all the benefits of a
passbook and has control over their bank accounts.

3.3Facilities provided by banks through e-banking:

Debit & Credit cards:


Every bank in Bangladesh offers their customers debit and credit card products. Debit cards
can be withdrawn or paid with the card at any time from ATMs or reputable stores. The debit
card allows users to receive emergency funds from the bank when needed to change the price
for services. It is a payment card for customers (debit card) according to the payment process.
Allows the cardholder to pay for freight and services on a contract basis with the cardholder.
The debit card creates a repayment slip and provides a line of credit to the cardholder, which
the cardholder can borrow to pay the merchant or make a down payment.

Banking through mobile apps:


Now, in Bangladesh, mobile banking services have become very popular because they are
lightweight, convenient, always ready to use and convenient. AIBL has bKash, Bangladesh
Post has Nagad, DBBL has Rocket, and City Bank has City Touch and so on.

ATM:
An ATM, also called an ATM, is a type of telephone communication that creates security
between you and the bank to complete financial transactions, especially withdrawals, without
a carrier money, employee or bank user.

Other notable services:


1. Make deposits, loan payments and card management.

2. Fund transfer to any bank and detailed account statements.

3. Internet shopping and digital payment through e-commerce gateway.

4. Instant bill payment such as tuition fees, mobile phone bills, insurance premium, club

5. Instant top-up to mobile phones.

6. Utility Bill Payments.

7. Loan account information and management.

8. Beneficiary Management.

9. Electronically management of all client accounts.

3.4 E-Banking Service of AIBL:

General Banking service in AIBL:


The main four general banking activities of AIBL are given in the following section;

❖ Account opening

❖ Clearing

❖ Remittance and

❖ Cash

All four bank accounts have now been processed via the bank's online servers, and the
registrations of all coupons and checks have been processed by physical and electronic
means. For the account opening section, go to the user account write an example of an
opening file that contains all the user's personal information, such as the country card, photos,
file name, income and purpose of the number , the signature. , then an employee accesses all
data on the company's server and stores each user's digital data and bank account.

AIBL ATM:
AIBL is a member of Q-Cash Consortium, National Payment Switch Bangladesh (NPSB) and
VISA. Customers can enjoy round the clock cash withdrawal facility from 86 ATMbooth and
they have their own ATM also every Branch.

SMS Banking:

17
SMS banking is a type of mobile business. It is a place used by some banks or other banks to
send messages to mobile phone users using SMS messages or services provided by them
which allow the users to do business. print money using SMS. AIBL customers can choose
the type of business they want to advertise. Optional options can be created by an online bank
or phone. Downloads are initiated by the consumer, using a mobile phone, to receive
information or to exchange an account.

Phone Banking:
Mobile banking is a service provided by a bank or financial institution that allows people to
do business on their mobile phone with a variety of financial transfers that do not include
money or financial instruments. There is no need to visit a bank or ATM. Enter your mobile
number 16434 to receive a 5-digit password. Telephone bank registration: The customer can
visit the bank account and submit the support request to the bank telephone. The prepayment
will be provided by the bank, which will have a 4-digit bank password.

Online & Internet Banking:

In this modern world, nothing can be imagined without the Internet. The banking sector also
offers better internet services. AIBL introduced basic online banking software. By using this
software the customer gets the online services. The shameful AIBL branch also offers online
banking services. Through the Intellect software, a customer can obtain information such as
balance survey, loan information view, transaction search, statement download, fund transfer,
etc.

Bill payment procedure:

3.6 Risk Management and E-Banking:

Credit risk:
All bankers will be able to apply for an e-bank loan. While online banking is strong and
secure, there are ways to defraud users of information and you may be able to apply for loans
with anonymous identity or anonymous. In addition, the borrower will not be guaranteed by
sending online letters and emails.

Interest rate risk:

©Daffodil International University


19
Interest rate risk is a risk factor that will affect the performance of any bank. The differences
between the world and the internet have linked countries together and now one country's
economy has been affected by the other. Consumers now receive information on which banks
offer the highest interest rates on deposits, and transactions are extremely competitive.

Liquidity risk:
E-banking provides easy cash flow for most consumers, whenever they need it. Therefore, if
another bank or financial institution has more expensive prices and better products,
consumers can now request the removal of all the components, which will for banks in areas
with higher financial risk.

Foreign exchange risk:


Foreign currency transactions when the bank has assets or guarantees in foreign currency.
The value of an exchange can rise or fall over time and this puts the bank's income at risk.

3.7 Analysis:
I am doing my working paper on the market analysis of the Bangladeshi banking research
firm Al-ArafahIslami minority bank. I chose Al-ArafahIslami Bank with 10 other financial
institutions to compare. And in this chapter, I present five different aspects of expression. The
median average of a bank, the average of the assets of a bank, the ratio of the average to the
earnings of a bank, the average revenue from the investment of the bank and the end is the
average payment compared to the authorized capital of the bank.

Problems, Recommendation &
Conclusion

Problems Identified

©Daffodil International University


21
1. Advertising and publicity are the weak points of Al-Arafah Islamic Bank Limited.
AIBL has no effective marketing activities.
2. There is a gap between customers and bankers. Customers don’t know anything about
them in the Islamic banking system about sometimes they are not familiar with the
rules Islamic banking.
3. This AIBL Bank trains a number of its employees at Bangladesh Institute of Bank
Management which has a detrimental effect on their bank. I think AIBL Bank should
train all its employees in BIBM.
4. ATM booth service is a popular online service. The online service of the bank is very
bad. So if they want to survive in the competition, they should launch an online
service as soon as possible.
5. Modern banking services like online banking, extensive ATM services are not
available.
6. There are not enough branches in AIBL.Especially in rural areas they have no
branches.
7. The technology that AIBL is using for their banking system is not up to date. There
are a few international banks in Bangladesh; they are very fast and very up to date.
AIBL is losing their clients due to lack of technology.
8. Almost all the branches of AIBL have digital banking system but it seems to be much
less than their customer base.
9. Al-Arafah Islamic Bank is very centralized. The branch office has to get permission
from the head office for each job. The head office strictly controls each branch office.
This reliance on the head office slows down their activities.

Recommendations:

©Daffodil International University


22
1. Banks should advertise them on YouTube, online magazines, Facebook, TV and
newspapers.
2. They should update their banking software and systems that ultimately result in fully
automated banking activities to attain customer satisfaction.
3. Al-ArafahIslami Bank should train its new employees in professional organizations
like Bangladesh Institution of Bank Management (BIBM).
4. Employees of different branches have to be trained in continuous digitization.
5. They should increase and increase number of ATM Booth.
6. They should immediately provide branches in urban areas where other banks are
enjoying their privatization business.
7. They need to implement more online banking to attract all the people
8. Appropriate banking software should be used to get the best benefit from this
category. AIBL should use the latest banking technology to provide better services to
its customers.
9. In addition to solving problems, staff meetings and departmental meetings should be
held at the branch level to improve the quality of service

Conclusion:

©Daffodil International University


23
I completed my business in the Shamoly branch of Al-ArafahIslami bank limited. All my
colleagues were so friendly and supportive and helped me do an internship. If I hadn't gotten
help from them, it would have been difficult for me to make this recipe.

Al-Arafahslami bank Limited is one of the best Shariah-based banks in Bangladesh. And this
follows the procedure of the Islamic bank according to the Qur'an and Sunnah. Every day,
people prefer Islamic banks. Customers have become more profitable due to the lack of
monthly fees and the inability to convert income into Islamic banks.

Their main concern is to provide the best services to their customers. Always try to satisfy its
customers by improving technology and facilities. Because the recognition of the highest risk
was linked to the estimate with the announcement of better results for the organization.
