1.0. INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC:

Financial institution/intermediary that mediates or stands between ultimate borrowers and ultimate lenders is knows as banking financial institution. Banks perform this function in two ways: taking deposits from various areas in different forms and lending that accumulated amount of money to the potential investors in other different forms.
General Banking is the starting point of all the banking operating. General Banking department aids in taking deposits and simultaneously provides some ancillaries services. It provides those customers who come frequently and those customers who come one time in banking for enjoying ancillary services. In some general banking activities, there is no relation between banker and customers who will take only one service form Bank. On the other hand, there are some customers with who bank are doing its business frequently. It is the department, which provides day-to-day services to the customers. Everyday it receives deposits from the customers and meets their demand for cash by honoring chaque. It opens new accounts, demit funds, issue bank drafts and pay orders etc. since bank in confined to provide the service everyday general banking is also known as retail banking. Banking system occupies an important place in a nations economy because of its intermediary role; it ensures allocation and relocation of resources and keeps up the momentum of economic activities. A banking institution is indispensable part of a modern society. It plays an important role in the economic development of a country and forms the core at the money market in any country. In a developing country like Bangladesh the banking system as a whole has a vital role to play in the progress of the economic development.

Bangladesh Bank introduced new accounting policies with respect to loan classification, provisioning and interest suspense in 1989 with a view to attaining international standards over a period of time. A Revised policy for loan classification and provisioning was introduced from 1st January, 1999.The Revised policy calls for an independent assessment of each loan on the basis of qualitative factors and objective criteria. Each loan is branded with the worst level of classification resulting from these independent assessments.
If a Continuous Credit or a Demand Loan remains non-performing for 6 months or more it is classified Sub-standard. It is classified as Doubtful if it remains non-performing for 9 months and classified as Loss if non-performing for 12 months or more.
In the case of a Term Loan, which is repayable within a maximum period of 5 years, if any installment is not repaid within the specified period and if the time-equivalent of such unadjusted balance is 6 months, it is classified Sub-standard. A Term loan is classified Doubtful and Loss if the time-equivalent of unadjusted balance is 12 months and 18 months respectively.
Under the existing system scheduled banks are required to maintain provisions against unclassified and substandard loans in addition to doubtful and loss loans. They are allowed to book interest against classified loans only on cash basis.
Whether a credit is classified or not under the objective criteria, it is subjected to classification under qualitative judgment if any doubt arises regarding repayment of loan

1.2. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF THE REPORT:
Objective of the practical orientation program is to have practical exposure for the students. Our internee duration is three months, which was somehow not sufficient enough to gather adequate experience of such vast banking business. After working whole day in the office it was very much difficult and also impossible to study against the theoretical aspects of banking. Finally as the banks renovation activities was going on so the physical working condition was not healthy enough that we thought it would be.

MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Although the officers have been very helpful, they didnt have enough time to share with me, as they are very busy with their assigned words.

2.4. THE COMPANYS COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS, INDUSTRY ANALYSIS AND SWOT ANALYSIS 2.4.1. World Economy: An overview
In the era of trade liberalization, globalization has presented new challenges as well as greater opportunities for countries all over the world. Economic boundaries of nations are being abolished and the world is gradually becoming one global village. In the beginning of the year1999, the Euro currency started to replace the currency of eleven European Union countries. In the financial service sector profound changes have been taking place globally. E-commerce is becoming the predominant mode of transactions. Revolutionary changes in the fields of cost control, retail channels, range and delivery of services, accessibility and reach are being witnessed. These changes have already triggered off reorganization, amalgamation, and takeover of financial institution globally. However, from 2007, the financial industry has started to melt down with many financial institutions going bankrupt due to malfunctioning practices. The financial world was taking more and more risks to increase their profitability which ultimately resulted in a backlash. The whole world came to know of what we call a Liquidity Crisis. This was the start of the global recession, the largest of its kind in modern history. Many researchers found that the whole system of the financial industry was at fault. People lost faith in the financial institutions and it seemed like the end is near for the financial industry. However, things have started to improve from the end of the year 2010 and the world economy is recovering slowly but steadily. Prepared For: Md. Masum Hossain

2.4.2. Bangladesh Economy An overview

The improved political environment in the country, after a delayed period of civil disobedience, brought a much-awaited economic stability during the financial year (FY) 2008-2009. The macro economic development during the year was marked by a healthy GDP growth and moderate inflation. For the second year running bumper rice harvest maintained growth at above 6% and GDP growth during the FY 2008 was at 5.59%. On the other hand, the growth performance in industry was slow with manufacturing growth 7.4% being one of the lowest rates in the recent years. Several unfavorable factors contributed to this situation which included disturbance in the supply of natural gas which in the turn affected the power supply and production activities. Other than that import of raw materials and private sector credit also affected the manufacturing growth. Furthermore, labor disputes during the second quarter of the year badly affected the operation of Chittagong port. In the services sector, growth in transportation, storage and communication contributed to about 13% to the total GDP but growth in trade sector was slow due to lower import growth.
During the year some positive initiative were taken in the banking sector with improvements in the legal and regulatory environment to improve loan recovery but unfortunately the high quantum of nonperforming assets and under capitalization continued to plague the entire banking sector thus causing a major threat to the macroeconomic stability. The size of classified loans increased significantly which contributed to lower profitability of the banks.
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Investment rate in FY 08 showed some increase and the declining trend in private savings was substantially reserved. The national savings rate increased from the previous year. This was partly due to increased inward remittances, increase in nominal interest rates and lower rate of inflation.
A recent report from Bangladesh Bank gives us a brief overview regarding the economy of Bangladesh, which is stated below: Within last one decade (2000-2001 to 2010-2011) nominal GDP increased more than threefold from TK. 2535.5 billion to TK. 7875.0 billion. In 2010-2011 per capita income was USD 818 which was USD 374 in 2000-2001. Foreign exchange reserve increased to USD 10.91 billion from USD 1.30 billion. Export income has increased to USD 22.92 billion from USD 6.47 billion. Import payment has increased to USD 33.66 billion in 2010-2011 from USD 9.33 billion in 2000-2001. During the last FY wage earners remittances was USD 11.65 billion which was only 2.50 billion in 2000-2001.

2.4.3. Industry Analysis

Bangladesh economy has been experiencing a rapid growth since the 90s. Urbanization and lifestyle changes along with the economic development have created a demand for banking products and services to support consumer investments in a profitable manner. To meet the overgrowing demand of consumers the number of commercial banks in Bangladesh is increasing day by day. So it is wise to say that the banking industry is quite saturated and competitive. Some of the major players in this industry are the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC), Standard Chartered Bank (SCB), City bank, MTB, BRAC Bank, Prime Bank Limited Dutch Bangla Bank Limited, Mutual trust Bank, National Bank, AB Bank, etc. Over the years these banks are significantly holding the market share and continuously exerting pressure over one another. This highly competitive and profitable industry therefore inspired others to come forward and thus made this industry even more competitive and tougher. In todays world everyone needs something unique to survive, and like everyone else each bank also has some specific characteristics which set them apart from the others. For example, the unique selling point of Dutch Bangla Bank Limited is its ATM outlets. None of the banks can even think about competing with Dutch Bangla Bank in terms of ATM outlets. With their massive promotion and superior ATM service quality, Dutch Bangla bank has created a specific image in the minds of the customers. Similarly BRAC Bank specializes in SME banking. This has been really profitable for BRAC bank for quite some time now. This untapped market has great potential and at this moment BRAC Bank almost enjoys a monopoly in that field. Again if we consider the case of Prime Bank, it specializes in
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 corporate clients. Though MTB and Prime bank Limited came in the industry at the same time however Prime Bank has expanded its business to a great extent. Today Prime Bank is a famous name among all the corporate and is proving to be quite successful. This does prove that the banking industry is quite competitive.
However keeping all that in mind, a new dynamic bank emerged named MTB, a fully online scheduled commercial bank opened in 1999, is dedicated to offer its clientele truly international standard banking services. MTBs customer friendly product with convenient features is designed to meet the grouting and changing needs. Most important, The MTB has a team of expert sales persons who will take banking at the doorsteps of customers. Such innovative schemes, diversified services and dedicated human resource have been the success factor of MTB in such a competitive industry. A recent report from Bangladesh Bank also gives us the following information regarding the industry: Net NPL ratios have declined by more than two thirds since 2004. Return on assets has more than doubled since 2004 (from 0.69 to 1.78 average for all banks). Return on equity has sharply increased from 9.7 percent in 2003 to 21 percent in 2010. BB prepared risk management guidelines to strengthening debt management and increasing the quality of assets. BB conducted stress testing to increase the shock absorbing capacity of the banking sector. Completed Basel II implementation to increase capital of banks and has started working on the implementation process of Basel III.

4.3. Procedure for Processing Loan Application:

In setting up the procedures for the evaluation / approval of the small project the length of processing time become a significant factor. Compared to other financial institutions usually two months average processing for its medium and large loan program, the processing /approval time of small industry loan remain well below the above processing time because
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 of its lesser detailed studies as well as the bank considers that small entrepreneurs are looking for their sources of credit at their time of need. The processing /approval time for small industry loan is not more then two months from the date of receiving complete application from. Application in prescribe form of received in triplicate, duly filled in, and sealed and signed by the sponsoring directors along with their attested photographs duly affixed in the space provided for. Draft layout plan of the proposed building and the estimated for construction cost is obtained.

Utility agencys letter of consent of providing necessary utility services to the unit to be obtained. Detailed credit report of the sponsors/ project is prepared i.e. the Bank should carry out detailed credit investigation of the promoters. Tentative list of machinery / work with detailed specification should be obtained supported by 3 price quotation. The individual project appraisal report for small scale and cottage industry may not be very elaborate and exhausted. However it covers the basic area of project viability. Join report from the Bank and the borrower is prepared for informal sector. The bank sometime seek advice for the panel of experts whose service may be haired by the bank and when required in specific case.
4.4. Credit Appraisal System:

The first step of credit proceedings is the request for credit from the clients. Then scrutinizing and collection of information from primary and secondary sources take place.
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Credit appraisal and evaluation is the most important part of credit management. On the basis of evaluation approval is given by the higher-authority with certain conditions to be fulfilled. Sanction of credit is done by the sanctioning officer, who has the authority to sanction the Credits. After fulfilling the conditions the credit is disbursed. Credit monitoring and reviewing start at the time of disbursement. Necessary steps should be taken to minimize the risk and increase the return of the Bank. Delegation of Business Power is important in credit sanctioning. Four-tire level is maintained in case of large amount of credit sanctioning.
4.4.1. Request for Credit from the client:

Bank provides credit facilities to the people who are credit worthy to the bank. Credit worthiness depends on the credibility, financial capability, and feasibility of the project and management ability of the credits to earn profits. When bank is satisfied with all these then the client is provided with the requested credit. At this point it should be mentioned that the client has to go through an interview where his credit potentiality is justified through critical observation. When credit officer is satisfied with the customer he is asked to submit an application and to fill up a form with specific details.
4.4.2. Credit Application:

Completeness of information can best be obtained by requesting the applicant to fill out a comprehensive application. Psychological attitudes toward the seriousness of credit obligations are improved when the application is rather formal and complete.
When the customer fills in the application, it is well for the interviewer to look over the form and to provide supplemental information, which will assure completion of the blanks not filled
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 in, or which probes more deeply into the questionable areas. It is well to provide space on the form for the recording of more information after the customer has left. Points in favor of having the applicant fill out the form is that fewer skilled credit personnel are necessary and that more customers can be accommodated in the same space.
4.4.3. Scrutinizing and collection of information:

In case of clients who have previous record of taking credit facilities, their in-file records are examined to see whether the client has a good record of payments in time. Information gathered through direct inquiry: Direct inquiry one of the common methods of obtaining information to verify facts presented on the application of during the interview of an applicant for an initial credit transaction. A careful distinction is made between obtaining credit information directly form sources having such facts and between buying somewhat similar credit data in the form of prepared reports from the credit reporting bureaus and agencies. Information gathered through in-file ledger fact: In-file ledger facts are one of the most important sources of information available to credit committee whether to accept or reject a larger amount of credit from an established credit customer. From the in-file records, credit analysts have at their disposal the experience of the concern with the customer. They know the customer's payment habits, the complaints registered, and the collection efforts, if needed to keep the customer in line with the established terms.
4.4.4. Credit Appraising & Presentation of Credit Proposal for Approval:
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 When credit officer is satisfied with his credit worthiness, financial capability, management ability and feasibility of the project through credit appraisal of clients in a prescribed form, he can hope for credit from the bank. Credit appraisal is done through 'credit appraisal form'. Ratio analysis is give importance in case of project finance. But most of the medium quality loans are given on the basis of financial capability of repaying and credit worthiness of the client. Lending risk analysis is done in a prescribed form in case of large amount of loan, above 50 Lac. Credit officer prepares a credit proposal along with the prescribed 'Credit Proposal Form'. Credit officer measures the risk associated with the credit facility. No credit proposal can be put for approval unless there has been a complete written analysis. It is absolute responsibility of the Proposing Officer to ensure that all necessary proposal documentation have been collected before the facility request is sent to the Sanctioning Officer.
4.5. Associate Risk in Credit Investment:

Page 111
Borrower Analysis: The majority shareholders, management term and group or affiliate companies should be addressed. Any issue regarding lack of management depth, complicated ownership structures inter group transaction should be addressed, and risk mitigated.
Industry Analysis: The key risk factors of the borrowers industry should be addressed. Any issue regarding the borrowers position in the industry, overall industry concerns or competitive forces should be addressed and the strength and weakness of the borrower relative to its competition should be identified.
Supplier /buyer Analysis: Any customer or supplier concern should be addressed, as these could have a significant impact on the future viability of the borrower.
Historical Financial Analysis: An analysis of minimum of 3 years historical financial statements of the borrower should be presented. Where reliance is placed on corporate guarantors, guarantors financial statement should also be analyzed. The analysis should address the quality and sustainability of earnings, cash flow and the strength of the borrowers balance sheet. Specially, cash flow. Leverage and profitability must be analyzed.
Projected Financial Performance: Where term facilities (Tenor > 1 year) are bring proposed, a projection of the borrowers future financial performance should be provided, indicate an analysis of the sufficiency of cash flow to service debt repayment. Loans should be granted if projected cash flow is insufficient to repay debts
Account Conduct: For existing borrowers, the historical performance in meeting repayment obligation (trade payment, cheques, interest and principal payment, etc) should be addressed.
Page 111
Adherence to lending guidelines: Credit Applications should clearly state whether or not the proposed application is in compliance with the banks Lending Guidelines. The Bank Head of Credit or Managing Director/CEO should approve Credit Application that does not adhere to the banks Lending Guidelines.
Mitigating factor: Mitigating factor for risk identified in the credit assessment should be identified. Possible risk includes, but is not limited to: margin sustainability and/ or volatility, high debt load (leverage/ gearing), overstocking or debtor issues; rapid growth, acquisition or expansion; new business line/ product expansion; management charges or succession issues; customer and supplier concentration and lack of transparency or industry issues.
Loan Structure: The amounts and tenors of financing proposed should be justified based on the projected repayment ability and loan purpose. Excessive tenor or amount relative to the business needs increased the risk of fund diversion and may adversely impact the borrowers repayment ability.
Security: A current valuation of collateral should be obtained and the quality and priority security being proposed should be assessed. Loan should not be granted based solely on security. Adequacy and the extent of the insurance coverage should be assessed.
Name lending: Credit proposals should not be unduly influenced by an over reliance on the sponsoring principals reputation, reported independent means, or their perceived willingness to inject funds into various business enterprise in case of need. These situations should be discouraged and treated with great caution. Rather credit proposals and the granting of loan should be based on sound fundamentals, supported by a through financial and risk analysis.

Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Most important step of providing credit facility is the sanctioning of credit. Because sanctioning authority will be held responsible for any discrepancy. In this step all the documentation is completed and the customer is sent an advising letter for the credit facility along with all the terms and conditions. Norms maintained in sanctioning of credits are described below: Credit will be sanctioned and disbursed strictly in terms of the approved Credit Operational Manual of the Bank and Head Office Circulars issued from time to time.

The property should be under possession of the owners. In case of third party mortgage, consent from the owner of the property to mortgage the same against the loan is to be obtained.
4.8.5. Valuation of Security:

Valuation of the securities is important since the loan amount or withdrawal limit is fixed, considered on the basis of the value of securities less stipulated margin/equity. Methods of valuation of different categories of securities should be different based on the market value, invoice value and controlled value. Government securities, shares and debenture: Prices is to be ascertained from market quotations- where the price of a particular share suffers from wide fluctuation, the value of its should be fixed slightly lower then the market value. Higher margin should be kept. Seasonal Commodities: Current market price or controlled prices, whichever is lower. Finished/ Manufactured goods: Cost price or market prices whichever is lower. Trade Goods: Market price or invoice prices whichever is lower. Stock in Process: To be ascertained from the record of stock.

Banks lend money to the borrower for an agreed period of time. The borrower repays the loan with interest. Borrowers borrow, but sometimes do not repay the loan and interest. Bank therefore wants protection. They want security an interest in the borrowers asset giving preferential status or default or insolvency. Usually security means a charge created over asset(s) held by the business vis--vis sponsor (s) to guarantee fulfillment of an obligation especially the assurance that the debtor will repay (usually with interest) the money or credit intended to him. Charge means right of payment out of certain property. In a charge there is no transfer of interest or property. Ti is a right over some tangible asset of the borrower. It is a transaction as a result of which the lender acquires certain rights over the property and the borrower is refrained from dealing in them. In a charge there must be a notice to0 the subsequent transferees; otherwise the charge is not effective as to the subsequent transferees. A charge may be classified as: (!) Fixed charge (!!)

It prevents the loaner from dealing with the property charged without consent of the charge holder.
Floating charge: It is a charge on the property, which is constantly charging e.g. stock. A company can deal with such property in normal course of its business until it becomes fixed on the happening of an event. Thus, it is a charge on the asset of a company in general. Pari Passu charge: The term is usually used in the case of consortium lending. In case of such lending, a number of banks or financial institutions join together to lend to a single borrower in an agreed ratio against some common securities. The securities are charges to the entire banker / financial institution without any references like first charges or second charges only etc. The term that instructions will have a Pari Passu charge over the assets of the borrower means that the lender are entitled to have equal rights over the asset as per the agreed share. In other wards, in the absence of the sufficient asset to pay each lender, they will lose rate ably without any preference to any one or more. Second charge:
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 A creditor holding a second charge by ay of mortgage entitled to the proceeds after the first charges meet. He must inform to the prior mortgage of his charge because the first mortgage cant part with the proceeds or title of the property if he has notice of the second charge.

4.10. Management of Default Clients:

When a problem loan is detected the responsible loan officer takes the corrective action and tries to minimize the loan losses by allowing different facilities to the client. The steps are followed by the Mutual Trust Bank to manage the clients are: Persuasion: This is to step practice at Mutual Trust Bank to manage the problem loan. This step involves: Open discussion with the borrower Discussion with third party to find out the underlying reasons. Issuing the 1st Reminder letter of inform the due date and due installments.

Taking Precaution/Legal Action against Default Clients: Prepared For: Md. Masum Hossain Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 The responsibility for review and classification of credit facilities starts at Branch level. The frequency of the supervision and monitoring depends on the classification of credits. Sub-standard Advances: This classification contains accounts where irregularities have occurred but where such irregularities are considered to be either "technical" or "temporary" in nature. The main criteria for a sub-standard advance are that despite these "technical" or temporary irregularities no loss is expected to arise. These accounts will require close supervision by the management to ensure that the situation does not deteriorate further. Doubtful Debt: This classification contains debts where doubt exists the full recoverability of the principal and/or interest. Although a loss is anticipated it is not possible at this state to quantify the exact extent of that loss. Management is required to handle such debts with the utmost caution to either avoid or minimize the Bank's losses.
Bad-Debts: These facilities are considered to be uncorrectable shall be made a provision @ 100% of the base. Special Mention: In addition to the above classification rating, there should be another category which is not classified but where special attention is necessary to keep the account out of classification. This category will be known as Special Mention. Facilities required special monitoring are to be flagged or put on a watch list. No provision is necessary for this category.

COMPANYS CURRENT & FUTURE
5.0. COMPANYS CURRENT STATE OF OPERATIONS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS:

5.1. Current State:
MTB has been in the industry for 12 years now and during these years MTB has spread its business in the fields of Corporate, Retail and Investment Banking. So far the performance of MTB in these fields has been good enough and the business is growing successfully. 2011 has been quite a successful year for MTB as the organization did much better from the previous years. This proves that the organization is on the right path to becoming the benchmark in the banking industry. Prepared For: Md. Masum Hossain
Page 111
MTB wants to be famous for its retail banking facilities. It is continuously coming up with new deposit schemes to attract clients. Customers are regularly coming to deposit their funds in different schemes like Savings, Fixed deposit and Deposit Pension Schemes. MTB is continuously promising the clients with attractive rate and return policy on such schemes and the demand of MTB is increasing day by day. To attract more clients MTB has come up with the facilities of locker system. This has been an instant hit. Because of such facilities the clientele of MTB is increasing day by day.
MTB is also earning more revenue, thanks to its investment banking policy. Clients of MTB are extremely happy with the investment banking system of MTB. Since MTBs EPS price is raising in the stock market that has further increased the Investment banking popularity.
MTB has an efficient human resource department which is continuously working to encourage the employees and make them more efficient and productive. One of the main factors behind the success of MTB is its employees. MTB has created training facilities for such employees and because of that they are getting highly trained. Besides the foreign exchange branches of MTB are open on Saturday (Holiday), customers appreciate it a lot and as a result of that the operating profit of MTB is increasing day by day.
MTB is continuously trying to fully automate all its services. In this age of technology it is quite tough to survive if youre of fully automated. MTB is continuously trying to do that by making all its offices fully computer operated. All the branches of MTB are connected, so
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 clients of any branch can get the services from any other branch. Because of such facilities the clientele of MTB is increasing day by day.
Table 5: Deposits of the Industry in Crores
The table above shows that MTB has already captured 1.47% of the industry deposits. This in itself is a good achievement in this competitive industry.
Table 6: Industry Advances in Crores
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 The table above shows the industry share for Advances of MTB in the year 2010. This percentage has now increased to 2.8% which is quite an improvement.
Figure 3: P/E Ratio of all New Generation Banks

Figure 4: EPS of all New Generation Banks
In this graph, we actually see that MTBs EPS was the highest amongst all its peers and that is a great state to be in.
Page 111
5.2. Strategic, Operational and Legal Issues:
The world is developing everyday and the global economy is going through several changes. To cope up with all that a bank like MTB must always be ready. To continuously meet up the ever changing demands of clients MTB must come up with new products and services. In this age of globalization, MTB alone cannot do all that. One of the strategic issues of MTB has always been the lower number of partnership and foreign conglomerate. MTB should do something about that to remain competitive. When it comes to the operational side MTB should explore into new dimensions. Islamic banking is gaining popularity day by day. MTB should definitely take some steps to capitalize on this profitable segment. This is an area of great potential, so if MTB doesnt take any decisions immediately regarding that then it will have to face tough competition in the years ahead.
One of the operational issues of MTB has been the recovery of the disbursed loan. Whenever a loan is issued, MTB often faces difficulty is recovering these loans. So MTB must do something to solve this problem, otherwise it will face a great loss. Another issue that MTB must address is the threat of new entrants. The banking industry over the years has proved to be one of the most popular industries. As a result of that more people are getting into this industry. So in order to survive in this industry one has to continuously come up with new products and services to satisfy clients. The most important operational issue that I found out from interviewing a Senior Executive is that MTB relies heavily on Call Money due to the lack of deposits they have which is greatly hampering their profitability.
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Banking requires a lot of documentation. This is an industry where a small mistake could destroy the life and carrier of others. So this is a legal issue that MTB often faces. Proper documentation is required by the government and any mistake in that is severely dealt. So MTB always has to ensure required documentation.
Another legal issue is the minimum Statutory Liquidity Reserve (SLR) and the Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR) which new generation banks like MTB struggle to maintain keeping a high profitability. These new generation banks including MTB have considerably low amount of deposits which they can lend out to generate profit and on top of that they have to keep a significant amount of deposits as a reserve with the Bangladesh Bank. These banks genuinely believe that the SLR and the CRR should be lower than what it is now to make the industry more competitive and profitable.
5.3. Future Directions:

MTB expects a higher growth of business in the coming years. This growth will predictably be generated from the diversified Corporate Sector, Retail Banking, Money Market Operations, Consortium and Structured Financing and Export Oriented and remittance initiatives. MTB believes that the way that the business has developed so far, it can easily fulfill its objectives in the coming years and MTB will become a benchmark in the banking industry. As one of the future initiatives MTB wants to establish its position in the field of SME and Retail Banking. SME is one of the market segments with great potential. MTB wants to explore this untapped resource to the fullest and in the process become more successful and contribute to the
Page 111

national economy. At the same time since the popularity of Islamic banking is growing day by day, MTB plans to get involved in this sector. MTB currently has 76 branches but only 68 ATMs in the country. Because of such lower number of ATMs, MTB is often heavily criticized. MTB has decided to open up more ATM outlets to meet the demand of its ever growing customers. Besides it has decided to improve its online facilities so that the customers can get uninterruptible services all the time. MTB has also decided to get more involved in projects and CSR activities. Every year MTB finances some projects and since this is an important segment MTB has decided to increase its investment. Other than that MTB wants to give something back to the community and because of that, MTB has decided to increase its number of CSR activities to a great extent. These innovative steps will definitely improve the popularity of MTB and will contribute to the profitability in the long run.
Chapter: 6
RECOMMENDATIONS & CONCLUSION
6.1. RECOMMENDATIONS:
The overall performance of the banking industry is quite crucial not only to its customers and shareholders but also for the economy. The main driving force attracting the potential and existing investors is often the successful achievements of the bank. So, it is very important for all the concerned people including the regulators to be very careful in dealing with this industry.
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 MTB has been present in the banking industry for 12 years now. Throughout these years MTB has gained a reputation for delivering good customer service in banking. But now that the world is changing, MTB must also change its policies. To continuously serve the clients MTB has decided to form some partnerships and conglomerate. One of the steps has been to form alliances with some companies and NGO in the field of foreign remittance and that has proved to be quite favorable for MTB.
MTB must also explore into new dimensions i.e. Islamic banking. MTB has recently explored into new dimensions like Investment banking and SME. However, MTB must also establish Investment banking facilities in most of its branches like some other competitors. MTB must be innovating continuously to provide a wide range of services to remain in this competitive market.
I have observed some problems and difficulties with their services while doing my internship. From my personal observation and from customers suggestions, following
recommendations can be made for future progress in service quality of Mutual trust Services should be targeted towards small accountholders too.
Reduce service charges and interest rates of different investment. More sitting arrangement should be made. Have bigger branch premises for increased number of customers. Number of branches should be increased. Need to speed up processing of loan application. Bank must introduce new service time to time. Service people can instruct customers about how they can get their job done. It will also reduce their stress.
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 Bank should identify the peoples problem that are closing the account and should take steps if the lacking is in banks side.
Mutual Trust Bank must improve its market conditions in order to do well. They must go for more aggressive and interactive promotional strategies for the people to notice them and get interested towards them. Moreover, MTB must also open up newer branches and more ATM Booths at frequent intervals. This will make people feel more convenient to deal with MTB and will also make people notice MTB more. MTB must also carry out CSR activities to enhance the image of them self so that people start to believe that MTB is a reliable and responsible bank. If MTB does not do anything to get noticed or improve their image, then they will keep on facing problems and hardships as long as they survive in the industry.
6.2. CONCLUSION
The fall-out from the ongoing volatility in global credit markets and slowing economic growth has combined to place significant pressure on the financial performance and capital position of Bangladesh. This situation is also accompanied by soaring inflation rates. As a result of that, the regulators and policy-makers are in a state of confusion as to what to do. To make things worse, the capital market of the country came crashing down putting huge pressure Prepared For: Md. Masum Hossain
Page 111
MD. SHAHIDUL ISLAM ID # M 20831111018 on the regulatory bodies. Then recently, Bangladesh Bank came up with new regulation for the safety of the Banking Industry and also to control the inflationary pressure in the economy. In this regulation, they have increased the level of Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR), Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) and the Advance-Deposit Ratio (AD Ratio) for all the banks.
The entire policy of the bank is designed in a way which always tried to avoid default risk. Adequate power of the top management for monitoring credit operation makes the bank culminates in the banking sector. It takes some steps to minimize loss that is very good decision. The bank also supports development of trade, business and other commercial activities in the country. It also cover the full range service to exporter and importer extending various facilities such as cash credit, short term loan, local bill purchase and foreign bill purchase and other facilities which also leads the bank.
