After calculating ratios for each year's financial data, the analyst can then examine trends for the company across years. Since ratios adjust for size, using this analytical tool facilitates intercompany as well as intercompany comparisons. Ratios are often classified using the following terms: profitability ratios (also known as operating ratios), liquidity ratios, and solvency ratios. Profitability ratios are gauges of the company's operating success for a given period of time. Liquidity ratios are measures of the short-term ability of the company to pay its debts when they come due and to meet unexpected needs for cash. Solvency ratios indicate the ability of the company to meet its long-term obligations on a continuing basis and thus to survive over a long period of time. Financial ratios allow for comparison: a) Between companies b) Between industries c) Between different time periods for one company d) Between a single company and its industry average 3.8.1 Current ratio Current ratio measures the firm ability to meet the current ability from the current assets. We can also define it as it shows the firm ability to how efficiently cover the short terms debt with the help of short-term investments and the current ratio measure that how many current assets are greater or less than the current liabilities. We can calculate it by dividing the current ratio on current liability. 𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒕𝒔 Current ratio= 𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒂𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 Table 3.7 Current Ratio of NBP NBP Current Ratio Year 2022 2021 2020 Current Assets 1,68,857,180 2,03,637,998 1,96,827,691 2,28,560,637 Current Liabilities 9,6503,399 1,16,201,353 1,61,128,710 1,62,256,891 Current ratio 1.75 Times 1.752 Times 1.40 1.22 Times 2019 SOURCE: (NBP Annual Reports, 2022) 45 Graph 3.1 Current Ratio 2 1,5 1 0,5 0 Current Ratio 2019 2020 2021 2022 1,75 1,752 1,221 1,4 Figure 3.1 Increase/Decrease in current Ratio of NBP from 2019-2022 Interpretation The current ratio of NBP for all four years is not high because of current assets is not in huge. The ratio is 1.75in 2019 but in 2020 it slightly moves up to 1.752& in 2020 it slightly decrease to 1.22. In the 2020 current ratio 1.4 times.2020-year ratio 1.752 which is the highest in all four years the bank. We can say that for every one rupee’s liability the bank has 1.4 rupees in the 2022. 3.8.2 Debt to equity ratio Debt to equity ratio is used to find total liability against the Total Shareholders’ Equity. This ratio shows the firm efficiency that how easily the liabilities of the firm on the basis of Equity. This ratio helps us to tell the bank is suitable to take the risk or not. We can calculate this with following formula Debt to Equity Ratio= 𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒍𝒊𝒂𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒆𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒕𝒚 Table 3.8 Debt to Equity Ratio of NBP NBP Debt to Equity Ratio Year 2019 2020 2021 T.

This ratio tells that the company or firm how many depend on total debt and how many it depends on total assets. This ratio tells that how many of it is greater than the risk will be greater. If value of it is less the risk will be less. It is calculated as 𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒅𝒆𝒃𝒕𝒔 Debt to Asset Ratio= 𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒕𝒔 × 𝟏𝟎𝟎 47 Table 3.9 Debt to Asset Ratio of NBP NBP Debt to Asset Ratio Year 2019 2020 2021 2022 Total debt 906,528,852 1,016,926,288 1,171,598,393 1,211,054,416 Total Assets 1,035,024,680 1,149,577,736 1,311,995,159 1,371,717,946 Debt to asset ratio 87.6 % 89.3 % 88.2 % 88.5 % Graph3.3 Debt to Asset Ratio 89,50% 89,00% 88,50% 88,00% 87,50% 87,00% 86,50% Debt to Asset Ratio 2019 2020 2021 2022 87,60% 88,50% 89,30% 88,28% Figure 3.3 Increase/Decrease in Debt to Asset Ratio of NBP from 2019-2022 Interpretation On the above data and graph, it is clear that this ratio was going upward from 87.60% in2020 to 88.50% in 2021 and then in 2022its value becomes 88.28%. 3.8.4 Gross profit margin ratio Gross Profit Margin Ratio tell and indicate that firm how many earn the gross profit from its sales.

Which means the efficiency on NBP is not good at this year and they have not used their deposits efficiently in advancing to borrowers. 53 3.9 Financial impact of NBP on Pakistan Economy Pakistan’s economy has been growing slowly over the past two decades. Annual per capita growth has averaged only 2 percent, less than half of the South Asia average, partly due to inconsistent macroeconomic policies and an under-reliance on investment and exports to drive economic growth. Short periods of rapid consumption-fueled growth frequently led to sizable current account and fiscal deficits that ultimately required policy tightening, resulting in recurrent boom-bust cycles. 3.10 Contribution of NBP towards Economic Development Finance NBP has been playing a key role in financing and developmental activities in Pakistan. It helps in the growth of economy in all spheres of our national life. It has contributed significantly to economic growth of the country and has served trade and industry in a wide range of operations. NBP was the first bank who introduce scheme of credit to small borrowers like farmers etc., for the promotion of agriculture. Small short-term loans are given to the farmers, free of interest. NBP is able to attract large number of deposits through its large number of branches all over the country and thus is able to provide large amount of loans to different sectors. NBP is also providing finances to small-scale industries for the period up to five years; it has introduced the people’s credit facilities to the common man at the large and more liberal scale than before. The main objective of this scheme is to make a contribution toward building up of a developing nation. The NBP also helps to promote the establishment of new companies by underwriting their shares. The bank also contributes towards the earning of foreign exchange though its foreign exchange business in Pakistan and abroad. Last four years performance is showing in graph that how it decreases and increase in 2019 its ratio was 1.126 and 2020 it increases to 2.803 similarly in 2020 due to covid-19 it decreases and 2021 it increases show some stability and in last 2022 its increases. This effect of the last four year shows that it has stabilized its financial position. These effect of the last four year shows that it has stabilize its financial position. 54 CHAPTER04 SWOT ANALYSIS 4.1 NBP SWOT Analysis SWOT is an acronym for an organization’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. A SWOT analysis consists of sizing up a firm’s internal strengths and weaknesses and its external opportunities and threats. The SWOT analysis of N.B.P as follows: 4.2 Strengths Following are the strengths of National Bank Of Pakistan. 4.2.1 Oldest institution & distinctions NBP is one of the oldest banks of Pakistan and first nationalized bank Hence its customer base is strength from this plus point as customers have more confidence in the bank. NBP continued its journey of success based on their strategy of serving clients better, a company agile enough to take advantage of its unique domestic and international footprint, capitalizing on the largest balance sheet and customer base in Pakistan with high cross sell potential. NBP’s standalone AAA rating (the highest in the industry), our RoE, which is amongst the highest in the Asian banking industry, and NBP’s comfortable capital adequacy ratios, positions well in front of its competitors for future growth. 4.2.2 More deposits than other banks NBP has the relative competence in having more deposits than the other bank. This is because of the confidence the customer has in the bank. The bank being the privileged and oldest bank in banking sector of Pakistan enjoys this edge over all others, lacking it. 4.2.3 Employee benefits Employeesare offered reasonable monetary benefit. Normally two bonuses are given at Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adha. This serves as an additional benefit andcompetency for the bank and a source of motivation f or theemployees. 4.2.4 Broad network The bank has another competency i.e., it has broad-basses network of branches throughout the country also more than one branch in high productive cities. The customers are provided services at their nearest possible place to confirm customer satisfied. Year 2007 has been an 55 outstanding year with the bank recording the highest profiting its history. NBP’s wide range of product offering, large branch network and committed workforce is some of its fundamental strengths that enabled it to achieve exceptional results in a very competitive market. 4.3 Weaknesses Following are the weaknesses of NBP which should be overcome by the management of NBP. 4.3.1 Lack of marketing effort NBP is not much involved in marketing at electronic and print media, reason observed behind this is bank already gained a huge credibility and not done some kind of advertisement through electronic, but in this era of competition every organizationneed a massive marketing campaign remain involved in the minds of customer. 4.3.2 NBP under political pressure The strong political hold of some parties and government and their dominance is affecting the bank in a negative way.
