This internship report is actually is brief discussion offunctions that are performing at United Bank Limited. UBL was established in 1959 and is one of the major commercial banks of Pakistan. The Bank is making every effort to meet the up-coming challenges through strategic planning and making the best use of the resources at its command. A professional team was appointed in mid-1997 to restructure the bank and to commence rightsizing. The management is also in the process of rationalizing the branch network, identifying, and recovering it’s doubtful and classified portfolio. It has planned to institute major improvements in customer services and internal systems to improve efficiency. The bank is increasing resource mobilization through regular deposit campaigns and accelerating the process of recovery of outstanding advances and nonperforming assets. UBL has assets of over Rs. 747billion, Shareholder's Equity of over Rs. 14 billion and a solid track record of 50 years - in addition to the convenience of over 1200 branches serving you throughout the country and also at several overseas locations.

This is an essential academic requirement. The internship is followed by comprehensive report writing, required to submit to the research and development division (R&DD) of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur. This report is properly evaluated on the basis of its description and analytical capabilities by internal and external examiners. I did my internship in United Bank Limited Fride Gate Branch. PURPOSE OF STUDY: The purpose of the study is to work in real life situation and learn banking practice by doing. In this context its objectives are: i. To analyze banking operations i.e. operational analysis, financial analysis. ii. To develop concrete and feasible recommendations. iii. To improve report writing skills. SCOPE OF STUDY: The study is confined to banking operations. An attempt, along with all its limitations, to collect financial data and general statistics of the bank has been made. Keeping in view the purpose of the study, which is to make an acquaintance with practical doings in the bank, this seems a comprehensive effort. LIMITATION OF STUDY: It is to admit that the study attempts only those aspects, which are closely relevant to the purpose of the study. Facts and figures, which otherwise might be equally important, but not having a direct bearing on the conclusions arrived at this study, have been ignored. The most important limitation from which the study suffers is the non11 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad availability of information in a manner required for analysis and the secrecy of the bank. Another important limitation of the study is time and space constraint. METHODOLOGY OF STUDY: Primary and secondary datawere used in compilation of report. Methodological tools were: i. Primary Data: Personal Observations. Discussion with Bank Personnel. ii. Secondary Data: Brochures/ Manuals of the bank. Annual Report State Bank Foreign Exchange Manual Bank internship reports on UBL available in library. Journals, newspapers and books. Internet. 12 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad BANKING SYSTEM Banking services are extremely important for both economies developed and developing economy such as Pakistan. Banking services serve two primary purposes. First one is, by supplying customer with the basic mediums-of-exchange (cash, current account and credit cards). Without these familiar methods of payment, goods could only be exchanged by barter, which is time-consuming and inefficient.Second, by accepting money deposits from savers and then lending money toborrowers, banks encourage flow of money to productive use and investments. Without this flow, savings would sit idle in someone’s safe, it would not be available to borrow, people would not be able to purchase cars or houses, and businesses would not be able to build the new factories. Enabling the flow of money from savers to investors is calledfinancial intermediation, and it is extremely important for the growth of economy. BANKING HISTORY Consensus on the origination of word “Bank” is not yet reached at. Someauthor’s opinion is that this word is derived from the words “Bancus” or“Banque”, which mean a bench and they further relate banking business inceptionto Jews in Lombardy. Other authorities state that the word “Bank” is derived from the German word “Back” which means “Joint Stock fund” and later on due toGerman occupation of Italy, this word was Italianated into “Bank. Authors quoteBabylonians (few quotes Chinese) who developed banking system as early as2000. B.C1 BANKING IN PAKISTAN: Banking started in Pakistan after the bold and emergent decision offormulation of SBP on July 30, 1948. Thereafter this sector has witnessedenormous growth. In 1974 banks were nationalized, in the hope that new era ofgrowth could be achieved through it. However the process is reverse since 1991,up till now MCB, ABL, and UBL have been privatized and HBL is in the processof its privatization. 13 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad TOWARDS ISLAMIZATION OF ECONOMY Interest based transactions/businesses are “Haram” in Islam. The GOP hasshown. Interest is to eliminate “interest” from its economy by developing variousalternatives. To achieve this objective various efforts are made with the followingoutcomes. DEPOSITS: S A Haq. (1998) Practice & Law of Banking in Pakistan (6thEd.) The Council of Islamic Ideology (1980).Elimination of Riba from Economy. PLS (Modarba) Accounts Current Accounts: (with no return paid) LOANS: Qarz-e-Hasana Lending on the basis of Service charges TRADE RELATED MODES OF FINANCES: BaiMuajjuai; purchases of goods by banks and their sale to clients atappropriate mark-up in prices. Bai-Salam; purchase of goods from clients by banks and their resale to theclient at increased prices, to be paid in future. Financing for development of property on the basis of developmentalcharges. Ijara: leasing. INVESTMENT TYPE OF MODES OF FINANCES: Musharaka: financing on the basis of profit and loss sharing. Modaraba: equity sharing of borrower profit and loss on basis of purchaseof modaraba certificates. Rent sharing. Equity participation through purchase of shares. 14 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad ADVANTAGES OF BANKING SYSTEM FOR ECONOMY The deposit and loan services provided by banks benefit an economy in manyways.First, Current account, because they act like cash, make it much easier to buy goods and services and therefore help both consumers and businesses, who would find it inconvenientto carry or send through the mail huge amounts of cash.Second, loans enable consumers to improve their standard of living by borrowing moneyto purchase cars, houses, and other expensive consumer goods that they otherwise could notafford. Third, loans help businesses finance plant expansion and production of new goods, andtherefore increase employment and economic growth.Finally, since banks want loans repaid, banks choose borrowers carefully and monitor performance of a company’s managers very closely. This helps ensure that only the bestprojects get financed and that companies are run efficiently. This creates a healthy, efficienteconomy. In addition, since the owners (stockholders) of a company receiving a loan wanttheir company to be profitable and managed efficiently, bankers act as surrogate m onitors for stockholders who cannot be present on a regular basis to watch the company’s managers. 15 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad UBL HISTORY United Bank Limited was incorporated in Pakistan with the registered office in Karachi, and the principal office situated in Islamabad.UBL has assets of over Rs. 747 billion and a solid track record of over fifty years - in addition, the bank operates 1200 branches all over Pakistan including 7 Islamic banking branches, and 1 branch in Karachi export processing zone and 17 branches outside Pakistan.

Introduction of Account. 35 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad PROCEDURE FOR ACCOUNT OPENING: Penning down information and keying it into the system does seem a simple and tedious job but it is not. My initial five days at customer service department was the liveliest experience of my internship. Though physically I was there just to assist the account opening officer, but it turned out to be much more for me. That is when I first actually imitated as a presenter of UBL to customers, when to many people, I'm their hope. UBL offers a variety of options for anyone; to everyone. You are an investor, regular businessman, middle man, salaried person or a house wife; UBL serve you in every way it can through its commendable and reliable services, because at UBL, YOU come first. Working at Customer Service Department, I did counter with different types of customer and opened their accounts under the supervision of the officer.

A bank has to pay interest to the depositors and also to meet its operating expenses. So for a bank proper utilization of funds is the most important thing. Bank can utilize these funds in the following ways. Invest funds in government securities Invest in portfolio of shares in the stock exchange, or Lend these funds to other individuals or organizations. The main features of this department are 61 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad It provides loans to different organizations and against these loans kept securities; Proper judgment of these securities is also their duty. Proper judgment of securities is the most crucial event in the process of lending. Because in the case of default securities are the only compensation to the bank. Default mostly is the result of improper judgment. In the process of judgment they follow the following principles: 1. Safety Character Capacity Capital 2. Liquidity 3. Dispersal 4. Remuneration 5. Suitability Safety: As the funds with UBL are mainly comprised money borrowed from depositors. They deposited their funds because they have trust and confident on them. Therefore they are very much careful while lending, so that the money goes in safe hands where the risk of loss does not exist. The elements of character, capacity and capital help them in arriving at a conclusion regarding the safety of loans. Character: It is the most important factor in deterring the safety of advances. A borrower’s character can indicate his attention to repay the advance since his honesty and integrity is of primary importance. If the past record of the borrower is not good than his integrity is questionable and there is high risk of default or bad debt. 62 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Capacity: This is the management ability factor that tells how successful business has been in the past and what is its future. This factor indicates whether borrower will be able to pay interest and principle amount borrowed through the functions of the business or not. Capital: This is the monetary base, because the money invested by the borrower himself represents his faith in the business and its future. UBL provide short term capital for commerce and industry, yet some borrowers insist that bank provide them most of the capital required. So the bank while lending must consider the amount requested for is reasonable in relation to borrower’s own resources or investment. Liquidity: It means the ability of recovering the advances in emergency, because all money borrowed is repayable in lump sum on demand. The UBL has to ensure that the funds being lent are not blocked for an undue logon period of time, and borrower is in such a position to pay the entire amount outstanding against them on a short notice. Dispersal: The dispersal of the amount of the advances should be broadly based so that a larger number of borrowing customers may benefited from the banker’s funds. It is also restricted, by the SBP; a bank cannot lend more than 20% of its capital to one party. Dispersal of loan is very necessary from the point of security as well, because it reduces the risk of recovery when something goes wrong in one sector or in one field. For UBL security is the main concern, so they act on this principle and follow it. Remuneration: The UBL needs sufficient earning to meet the following obligations. 63 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Interest payable to the money deposited with him. Salaries and fringe benefits payable to the staff members. Overhead expenses and depreciation and maintenance of the fixed assets of the bank. An adequate sum to meet possible losses. Provision for reserve fund to meet unforeseen contingencies. Profit to be remitted to head office by the operations in Pakistan. A major portion of UBL earnings comes from the interest charged on the money borrowed by the customers. Suitability: It means that advances should be allowed not only to the carefully selected and suitable borrowers; but also in keeping with the overall national development plans chalked out by the authorities concerned. Before accommodating a borrower UBL has to ensure the lending is for a purpose in conformity with the current national credit policy laid down by the SBP. Credit control is very efficiently exercised in Pakistan by the SBP, so UBL should never ignore any of the restrictions issued by it. Cash Finance/Credit Following are the characteristics of cash finance: Cash finance is a very common form of borrowing by the commercial and industrial concern. This facility is allowed to a customer up to a certain limit. This facility allow against pledged hypothecation and produce of merchandise. The borrower refers this form of lending to paying mark-up/service charges of the actual amount he utilized. If the borrower does not utilized the full limit the banker has to bear the loss on the unutilized amount. in order to offset this loss, the banker has prepared a 64 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad suitable clause on the cash finance agreement according to which the borrower has to pay the mark up on one third or one quarter of the amount he has allowed even he does not utilized it. Overdraft UBL provides this form of lending service, when a customer/borrower requires temporary accommodation. UBL allows withdrawals on his account indexes of the balance, which the borrowing customers has in credit. This facility is provided against collateral securities, and known as ‘secured overdraft’ it can also availed against personal security, if a person is reliable to UBL And known as ‘clean overdraft’ the customer has to pay interest/services charges only on the balance outstanding against him. The main difference between cash finance and overdraft is that cash finance is used for long term, while overdraft is a temporary accommodation. Loan Loan is the borrowing of a fixed amount repayable either in periodic installments or in lump sum at a fixed future time. Loans are of the types; Secured loans Unsecured loans Clean loans. There are two types of advances, which UBL provides: Fund Base Advances Non-Fund Base Advances Fund Base Advances These are those advances in which actual payment of funds is involved. These funds again have been divided into two types. 65 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Running Finance or Cash Finance This is a loan, which is provided only to the running businesses to meet their working capital requirements. The bank decides limit on continuing bases. It means that the customer can draw the amount, as much he is required as approved by the bank. He can deposit and withdraw the amount on his account. The markup is payable on the outstanding amount only. Demand Finance Facility The bank on demand provides this facility. It means that the bank pays the full amount to the client and mark up is also payable on the full amount. The bank considers the full amount outstanding. The bank provides also facility of loan to its own employees against the security of their immovable property. The rate of mark up on these advances is lesser as compared to the rate of mark up on the other advances. Non- Funded Based Advances: There are two types of this loan Issuance of Letter of Credit Issuance of Letter of Guarantee CLEARANCE DEPARTMENT CLEARING OF BILLS 66 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Bank can make payments of only open Chequeson the counter payment.

The total assets in 2011 were Rs.778, 060,000 and in 2010 Rs.699, 818,000 there is an increase in total assets. The investment trend is also increasing as compared to previous years. The loan trend is decreasing in 2011 as compared to last year’s data. The above two figures shows thatmain emphasis of new management in towards investment rather than loans it is positive sign for organization. Bank in industry gives emphasis towards profitable investment rather than loans. Share capital was also increased. Net non-performing loans reduced partly due to provisions and recoveries. Overall the financial position of the bank is better than previous fiscal year. PROFIT AND LOSS (Analysis) As we see the income statement of “United Bank Limited” it shows that mark up income is increasing with the passage of time. The income as Rs.59, 277 in 2010 which increased to 70,450,000 in 2011, appreciable sign for the management. These all improvement is due to a new professional team which was appointed in last years to restructure the bank and to commence rightsizing. The management is also in process of rationalizing branch network and identifying and recovering it’s doubtful and classified portfolio. It has planned to institute major improvements in customer services and internal systems to improve efficiency. It also intends to launch innovative products. The bank is increasing resource mobilization through regular deposit campaigns and accelerating the process of recovery of outstanding advances and non-performing assets. The mark up income has also increasing trend. There is an increase in Profit after tax. New techniques to compete in market. This thing caused to increase expanses. 116 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad SWOT ANALYSIS SWOT 117 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad SWOT analysis is a process to identify where we are strong and where we are vulnerable, where we should defend and where we should attack. It tells us our strengths, our weaknesses, the opportunities that prevail in the market and the threats, which we may face from our competitors and other from other potential factors. This analysis performed on a product, on a service, a company or even on an individual. STRENGTHS: Strengths are the internal competencies possessed by UBL in comparison with its competitors. UBL with an integrated network of over 1,218 branches domestic with 18 overseas locations gives you direct access to a comprehensive range of better banking facilities to help you monitor your business internationally. UBL provides its customers a complete range of banking products and services including retail banking, corporate and institutional banking, trade finance and consumer finance. UBL has planned to institute major improvements in customer services and internal systems to improve efficiency. It also intends to launch innovative products. The bank is increasing resource mobilization through regular deposit campaigns and accelerating the process of recovery of outstanding advances. The management of UBL in order to further improve the quality service, particularly at branch level, is restructuring its commercial banking operations. On the move within your city or traveling upcountry, UBL Rupee Travelers Cheques are the most secure and convenient way to carry cash and travel with peace of mind. For the customer who is on the move within the same city or in different cities of Pakistan and who wishes to avoid carrying cash, United Bank Limited presents 118 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Cheque Encashment Facility. You can have your UBL accountCheques encased by either self or a third party at any of UBL's designated branches in Pakistan. UBL Uni Saver Account is an innovative way of serving your banking needs. Be it trade, business or personal finance, the UBL Uni Saver allows you maximum flexibility, yet gives you optimum returns. All branches of UBL are now equipped with a special Haj counter, and offered a scheme of loan. UBL’s new remittance service, TAZRAFTAAR offers all overseas Pakistanis the fastest and the most convenient delivery of their money to their beneficiaries in Pakistan. Best of all, TAZRAFTAAR is completely cost free and is available at all UBL branches The concept of a universal teller must be introduced, which can greatly improve the counter services. Through this the bank will be able to get the edge over other competitors. More functionality must also add like signature verification, printing of remittance instruments, etc. Full Online/Offline computerization of Hubs and off-line computerization of all PLS and CD accounts should be achieve. UBL has asset of over 250 billion, capital and reserves of over 4 billion and solid record of accomplishment of 45 years. UBL saver allows you maximum flexibility, yet gives you optimum returns. UBL rupee travellers cheques are the most secure and convenient way to carry cash and travel. UBL was pioneer when it launched an important services to us where in customer are able to get their rates by dialing a dedication fax number in the bank. This has proved to be very successful idea. UBL is increase resource mobilization through regular deposit campaigns and acceleration the process of recovery of outstanding advices. 119 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad WEAKNESS: Weaknesses are the internal attributes of the bank to decrease in comparison with competing bank. The bank has less modern techniques all the branches are not computerized. No proper material of banking was provided during my internship. No concept of right person for right job. They are not providing efficient service to their customer. They are not using modern techniques like prizes scheme of other banks. Bank has not developed long term strategy People are being getting jobs in the bank secretly or form back door. Employees don’t have promotional opportunities for many years If the promotion opportunity available then competes those people whose have political or any other big source of promotion. The management of the bank offered low profit on profit and loss account approximately 6% before deducting the tax. The other banks offer more than this. HRM is not much effective and active in the bank. Every branch must have one HR counter The management is much goal oriented. There must be some people oriented executives. There is a communication gap between senior and young people. Trained and convince the employees that new technology is helpful for your work. 120 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad OPPORTUNITIES: An opportunity is an external component lies in outside the organization. They would be beneficial for the company. An opportunity is any chance to follow a new or revised strategy or business, which would be of benefit to the UBL. The banking sector has entered into new era with innovative products and online facilities, which other simply don’t. Government of UAE has declared a free industrial estate, which is having its own free port as jabl-e-ali, own which no tariffs are to be imposed. So United Bank Limited can invest in this area by opening its branches there. Banks know the deposit and credit products very well. That gives banks an advantage in creating relationships with small business customers. Every small business needs a checking account, and may need credit. For giving more importance to small business UBL can increase their operation. Commercial bankers can become the single source of financial services for small businesses, but to do so they must invest in IT that is designed to provide products and services to small businesses. They should look at their branches and the Web-based delivery channels and determine what the appropriate technology is for their small business clients. UBL have branches in BAHRAFIN, QATAR, UAE, UK & USA. Where the other competitors do not, it is a great opportunity for the bank. UBL has a very large network of branches all over the country. Unfortunately, these branches are not fully equipped with modern instrument, while other banks offering modern services, if management launches innovative products in these areas, bank will able to get the edge in these areas over other banks. Due to policy of industrialization bank can expand its operation by giving special attention towards this sector. 121 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad THREATS: Threats are also external factors in the environment, which are not in the favor of company, which can seriously hamper the company’s ability to serve its customers. Expansion of new commercial banks like ASKARI bank, FASIAL bank and etc... And their better performance may cause loss of market shares of UBL. According to World Bank report the Pakistan has become “over banked” economy with cut throat competition for deposits in the industry the battle is on for the market shares. The customers have emerged as the main Beneficiaries of the competition. Now they are getting more personalized services and innovative product. Along with the growth in size, the banks are now incorporating innovative approaches to their traditional commercial banking operations, keeping in the view the changing demand of the time. UBL face problem. The political influences affect the performance of bank very badly. Most of the loans become bad dad debits due to political pressure No stable government in Pakistan, Government policies change with the change of government. The concept of evening and Saturday banking, telephonic and online banking, ATM’s and credit cards are direct result of the intensive competition. But UBL is behind the above-mentioned services as compared to others bank. Freezing of foreign currency account by the government of Pakistan is also a fear for the bank. 122 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The overall organization is very good and results oriented, but I feel there is a need of improvement in some areas. The following are the suggestions that I have recommend for the united bank limited. Information technology should be introduced in all the branches to enhance the efficiently. Dominating influences of politicians and bureaucrats have been mainly responsible for the deterioration that has crept in the banking industry Effective training and qualified, dutiful and vigilant inspection teams are inducted per force in all the banks. A separate ladies counter should be there. The UBL branches should improve his position to attract more customers. The behavior with the customers should be improved. There is a great need of proper training of employees. Because whenever they were asked about the latest banking the answer was sorry we don’t know. Like the other reputed commercial banks UBL should recruited some officers especially from the fresh MBA’s and M.Com students. Doing so, the more talented persons would enter in the management and they will try to make the National Bank compatible with the other banks. The bank must have to apply the marketing strategies to attract the customers which are depositors, like other banks are doing such as City Bank and in the Pakistan banks now a days they are introducing new schemes like Core Patti Scheme by Habib Bank and Prizes on traveler’scheque by M.C.B. 123 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad This branch is not doing many functions to open L/C and to deal in export and import facilities. Therefore, bank should hire export staff for such type of activities and star them in the branch. Do marketing through internet. Try to establish effective communication between top-level management and executives. In order to check efficiency and effectiveness of employee working, MYSTERY SHOPPING concept must introduced by the management. Provide friendly environment to you employee in this branch. UBL’S top management must adopt such strategies, that will helpful in eradication of internet politics. The bank should make some strategies to educate the employers and public about the bank services and products. UBL’S management must introduce some teams that should do investigation about the creditor’s worthiness, so that the non-performing loans due to frauds can reduce. Create a marketing department in this branch and in other branches improve the marketing department that will give a lot of profit. In this branch, duties to some staff are not properly allocate. Reduce the conflict between top management and branch staff. In this branch, improve generator facility because if electricity problem occur a lot of time waste and create a problem with UBL goodwill. Reduce manual work record work in soft form. Divide equal work to employees because in this branch, some employees have a lot of work and some have few. In some developing area UBL, do not have branch, as there are other competitor have branches. 124 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad CONCLUSION: UBL is growing rapidly in banking sector in Pakistan. More important thing is that UBL is pioneer in computerization of banking. Its larger branches are fully computerized.It has currently largest online branches in urban areas, and developing its structure in rural areas too. As technology advances UBL also making itself fast and accurate in coming years the UBL is looking for better infrastructure in banking in Pakistan. As the World is going forward towards technology and advancements, UBL is also going step by step with all organizations. It has a good banking Structure, fast and effective network. This report is started from executive summary and history of banking sector in Pakistan. History is full of ups and down, the brief discussion of events that occur after partition. In June 1959, Mr.Agha Hassan Abedi decided to open a bank different from others to provide modern banking facilities to trade and industry and to promote the habit of saving among common people. Necessary formalities have been compiled for registration certificate to perform business to STATE BANK OF PAKISTAN for permission. After all these formalities on 7th November 1959, UBL came into existence as a schedule bank. Head office was establishment in New Jubilee insurance house; I.I.CHANDRIGAR ROAD KARACHI. It was registered as Joint Stock Company. There are different departments of UBL. The most important asset of UBL is its people. To maximize its work force investment, the aim of the Human Resource department is to enhance the UBL as the “best place to work”. In the area of Human resources their goal is to maximize the return on the bank’s annual $4 billion investment in personnel expense by improving efficiency of HR operations and the Effectiveness of all UBL’s. There are also some objectives of HR department of UBL that are: To establish employee recruitment and selection system for hiring the best possible employees consistent with the organization needs, whose performance is unsatisfactory and to 125 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad ensure organizational compliance with state and federal laws those are applicable to HR management function. Next department is the Advance/Credit Support Department that is the main sources of funds for the bank is their deposit. Bank does not keep these deposits in save with it. A bank has to pay interest to the depositors andto meet its operating expenses. Bank can utilize these funds in the ways that are invest funds in government securities, invest in portfolio of shares in the stock exchange or lend these funds to other individuals or organizations. Remittance Department is most important department of UBL, which provide services to their customer. Basically “Remittance is transfer of funds from one place to another or from one person to another”. A Remittance is an important service provided by banks to customers as well as non-customers. Remittance can take place in seven different ways that are Demand Draft (DD), Mail Transfer (MT), Telegraphic Transfer (TT), Pay Order and Rupee Traveler’s Cheques. Main functions of foreign exchange department are to open the letter of credit (LC) facilitates imports and export. This department deals with foreign currency account and deals with inward & outward remittances. Next department of UBL, which I discussed in my report, is the clearing departmentthe word clearing has derived from the word “clear”. Every bank acts as both paying as well as collecting bank. A large part of this work is carried out through the bankers clearing house wherever it is established. There are different types of clearing that are inward clearing, outward clearing, intercity clearing and same day clearing. Cheques collected by clearing are transfer cheques and clearing cheques. Collection department also plays an important role in the operations of trade finance of UBL. This facility is also provided to the exportersIt is not a conditional under taking by the bank.” Collection” is the handling by bank of documents, in accordance with instructions received. Collection department also deals with outward bills for collection and inward bills for collection. 126 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad IT vision is to create a central database linked to all the hubs, through strong communication backbone, which will allow the customers to maintain one account with bank and operate it from anywhere in the country.

UBL "Hamrah" has been designed keeping in mind, both convenience and security - be it business, property, trade or personal needs. Free Doorstep Remittances With-in the country or from abroad, UBL offers the most efficient and price competitive service. UBL's new remittance service, TezRaftaar offers all overseas Pakistanis the fastest and the most convenient delivery of their money to their beneficiaries in Pakistan.

Your account gets to travel with you and can be accessed throughout Pakistan, be it Karachi, Kotli Main, NalkaKohla or Mandara. Transactions are normally available in less than 15 minutes. When I did the financial analysis I concluded that UBL’s current assets are more in 2011 as compared to previous years. There is also ratio analysis of UBL that are Return on equity, Return on asset, Advance to deposit ratio, cost to revenue ratio and debt ratio. ROE ratio indicates the company earned 23.7% in 2012 on each Rupee of equity investment. ROA ratio means that company earned 2.1% on each Rupee of investment. Debt ratio indicates that company has financed 90% from debt and 10% from asset in 2012.The higher this ratio, the greater the firm indebtedness and more financial 128 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad leverage it has. The Net Markup income is greater because the company is growing at a rapid, and receiving more markup ratio as compare to gross income. Typically companies with good growth potential retain a high proportion of earnings and have a low dividend yield, whereas companies in more mature industries pay out a high portion of their earnings and have a relatively high dividend yield. EPS is increasing as compare to previous year and this shows better financial position in market. This also shows that Bank is growing towards success at rapid rate. In SWOT analysis I concluded that UBL provides banking facility to their customer, have qualified management and experienced professionals. It has automated system with online network. It has vast network of foreign correspondents. They offer a lower interest rate on loans and advances. The concept of a universal teller must be introduced, which can greatly improve the counter services. However, its employees are not satisfied because the pays of employees are less and there is no clear criterion for promotion. The bank has less modern techniques all the branches are not computerized. They are not using modern techniques like prizes scheme of other banks and Bank has not developed long term strategy. Trained and convince the employees that new technology is helpful for your work. These things are showing weakness. It is great opportunity for UBL if it provides the more innovative products. Government of UAE has declared a free industrial estate, which is having its own free port as jabl-eali, own, which no tariffs are to be imposed. Due to policy of industrialization bank can expand its operation by giving special attention towards this sector. UBL threat is the expansion of new commercial banks like ASKARI bank, UNION bank and etc... And their better performance may cause loss of market shares of UBL. According to World Bank report the Pakistan has become “over banked” economy with cut throat competition for deposits in the industry the battle is on for the market shares. The customers have emerged as the main Beneficiaries of the competition. 129 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad At present there is no such organization in the world that is free from problems and challenges. Every concern has to strive and struggle a lot to be more profitable and to get more competitive edge. During my six week internship at UBL Fride Gate Branch, I found various problems, which I think should be resolved for the better functioning of the bank. So there are some suggestions to solve these problems. Try to establish effective communication between top-level management and executive. Dominating influences of politicians and bureaucrats have been mainly responsible for the deterioration that has crept in the banking industry. Customer satisfaction should always remain the number one benchmark as move forward towards attaining their goals. They employed and retain an unparalleled workforce of highly motivated, energetic, well trained and productive employees. They try to achieve superior financial performance, and to be good corporate citizen of the communities they serve.UBL promote strong and ethical business practices in the industry by focusing more on effective collaboration with their stakeholders. Their corporate strategy focuses on the striking optimum balance in the organizational workflow and processes. The dynamic environment in which they operate impels them to remain balanced for the unexpected business environment. They are aware that they stepped into 21st century and they must meet its challenges by acquiring the highest levels of technology, they will thus be accelerating and enable them to distribute their products and services through most efficient and high technology means. All the customers are entertained individually. Same kind of behavior and attention is given to all the customers. During my internship training, I gathered information regarding how a successful bank operational aspect decorticated with the practical. 130 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur (( Internee: Mudasra Amjad Annexure 131 | Internship Report The Islamia University Of Bahawalpur
