HISTORY OF THE MCB BANK LIMITED

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

Before separation of Indo Pak, the need for more Muslim banks was felt. And
Muslims having strong financial capacity were thinking to invest in this sector as
well. This was the idea which paved the way for setting up MCB Bank Ltd known
as MCB. This was the third Muslim bank in the subcontinent.

History
This bank was incorporated under companies act 1913 on 9th July, 1947 (just
before partition) at Calcutta. But due to changing scenario of the region, the
certificate of incorporation was issued on 17th August, 1948 with a delay of
almost 1 year; the certificate was issued at Chitagong. The first Head office of the
company was established at Dacca and Mr. G.M. Adamjee was appointed its first
chairman. It was incorporated with an authorized capital of Rs. 15 million.
After some time the registered office of the company was shifted to Karachi on
August 23rd, 1956 through a special resolution, now recently the Head office of
MCB has been transferred to Islamabad in July, 1999 and now Head office is
termed as Principle Office.
This institute was nationalized with other on January 1st, 1974. At that time it
had 506 branches and deposits amounting to Rs. 1,640 million. Although. MCB
has a reputation of a conservative bank but nationalization also left its effects on
this institute as well and by end of year 1991 in which it was privatized the total
number of branches were 1.287 and deposits amounting to as high as Rs.
35,029 million.

Privatization
When privatization policy was announced in 1990, MCB was the first to be
privatized upon recommendations of World Bank and IMF. The reason for this
choice was the better profitability condition of the organization and less risky
credit portfolio which made'' it a good choice for investors. On April 8th, 1991, the
management control was handed over to National Group (the highest bidders).
Initially only 26% of shares were sold to private sector at Rs. 56 per share.

After privatization

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

Ten years after privatization, MCB is now in a consolidation stage designed to


lock in the gains made in recent years and prepare the groundwork for future
growth. The bank has restructured its asset portfolio and rationalized the cost
structure in order to remain a low cost producer.
After privatization, the growth in every department of the bank has been
observed. Following are some key developments:

Launching of different deposit schemes to increase saving level.

Increased participation on foreign trade.

Betterment of branches and staff service level.

Introduction of Rupee Traveler Cheques & Photo Credit Card for the first
time in Pakistan.

In short MCB is one of the leading banks of Pakistan with a deposit base of about
Rs. 280 billion and total assets of around Rs.300 billion. Incorporated in 1947,
MCB soon earned the reputation of a solid and conservative financial institution
managed by expatriate executives. In 1974, MCB was nationalized along with all
other private sector banks. This led to deterioration in the quality of the Banks
loan portfolio and service quality. Eventually, MCB was privatized in 1991.
During the last fifteen years, the Bank has concentrated on growth through
improving service quality, investment in technology and people, utilizing its
extensive branch network, developing a large and stable deposit base and
managing its non-performing loans via improved risk management processes.

MCB BANK TODAY


MCB today, represents a bank that has grown with time, experience and
Pakistan. A major financial institution, in scope and size, it symbolizes a fully
growing tree evergreen, strong, and firmly rooted.

Foreign trade
The bank conducted import business during the year amounting to RS. 54.0
billion as compare to RS. 56.4 Billion In 2005. The export business slightly

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

improves to RS. 36.9 Billion From RS. 35.1 Billion. In 2006. Home remittances
decline to RS. 16.7 Billion From 30.7 Billion the decline in home remittances
business was due to freezing of Foreign Currency Accounts, which has affected
the confidence of Pakistanis working overseas.

Year 2006 compliance


MCBs strength lies in providing a technological base at the gross root level of
the society with a challenge to educate and assimilate such systems across vast
cultural and economic backgrounds. With over 768 automated branches, 263
online branches, over 151 MCB ATMs in 27 cities nationwide and a network of
over 16 banks on the MNET ATM switch, MCB continuously innovates new
products and services that harness technology for the customers benefits.

Social sector
The bank is participating in the Prime Minister self-employment Scheme. The
application received from various applicants is being processed on merit and
disposed off as quickly as possible.

The business
MCB is in its over 50 years of operation. It has a network of over 1,000 branches
all over the country with business establishments in Sri Lanka and Bahrain. The
branch break-up province wise is Punjab (57%), Sindh (21%), NWFP (19%) and
Blochistan (3%) respectively.
MCB has an edge over other local banks, as it was the first privatized bank. The
State Bank of Pakistan has restricted the number of branches that can be
opened by foreign banks, an advantage that MCB capitalizes because of its
extensive branch network.
Fifteen years after privatization, MCB is now in a consolidation stage designed to
lock in the gains made in recent years and prepare the groundwork for future
growth. The bank has restructured its asset portfolio and rationalized the cost
structure in order to remain a low cost producer.
MCB now focuses on three core businesses namely Corporate, Commercial and
Consumer Banking. Corporate clientele includes public sector companies as well
as large local and multi national concerns. MCB is also catering to the growing

hour banking convenience with the largest ATM network in Pakistan covering 27

Paying-in-slip

Cash department is performing its job completely through computers.

DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT
Bank deals in money and this is merely mobilizing fund within the economy. They
borrow from one person and lend to another, the difference between the rate of
borrowing lending forms their spread or gross profit. Therefore we can rightly
state that deposits are the blood of the bank which causes the body of an
institution to get to work. These deposits are liability of the bank so from point of
view of bank we can refer to them as liabilities.

Types of deposits
1) Time deposits / liabilities
2) Demand deposits / liabilities

Functions of deposit department


This was a brief review of different types of deposit schemes. The Deposit
Department handles the account opening, profit payment and accounting of all
types of deposit schemes.

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

Account opening
Account opening is an agreement in which customer offers his funds and bank
accepts these funds, therefore the nature of relation between a banker and
customer is of a contractual one and all the conditions applicable to this contract
act are also applicable.
Profit payment & calculation
Profit payment & calculation is done in accordance with the rules of each type of
deposit scheme-by the deposit department. The products for each deposit
scheme are calculated separately and added till the end of 6 month period. Then
the sum total of these products is multiplied with the respective profit rates which
are issued by the Head Office at the end of each half yearly closing. The profit
provisions for each type of deposits are also calculated on monthly basis by the
same department in order to calculate the net profit or loss position of the branch.
Accounting entries
Accounting entries are also made in the respective books of account by this
department. However, in small and medium size branches, the accountant
performs the book keeping duties for all kinds of ledgers.

CLEARING DEPARTMENT
Every banker acts both as a paying as well as a collecting banker, It is however
an important function of crossed cheques. A large part of this work is carried out
through the bankers clearing house.
A clearing house is a place where representative of all banks of the city get
together and settle the receipts and payment of cheques drawn on each other. As
the collecting banker runs certain risks in receipt of their ownership the law has
provided certain protections to the banks.
The Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881, lays down that drawer or holder of a
cheque or draft may cross the instrument generally or specially. It further lies

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

down that a crossed cheque can only be paid to a banker, who collects it for a
customer in good faith and without negligence.

Types of cheques

Transfer cheques: are those cheques, which are collected and


paid by the same branch of bank.

Transfer delivery cheques: are those cheques, which are


collected and paid by two different branches of the same bank
situated in the same city.

Clearing cheques: are those cheques, which are drawn on the


branches of some other bank of the same city or of the same area,
which is covered by a particular clearing house.

Collection cheques: are those cheques, which are drawn on


the branches of either the same bank or of another bank, but those

with complete group position. The parties credibility report is also obtained from
the banks from which the party has been doing the business. The party
creditability report is also taken from the head office of Trade information
Division.
For obtaining credit, party has to submit the last two years Balance Sheet and
Profit & Loss Statement duly attested but authorized auditors. If the party also
involve in export or import business then the bank also consider the data of three
years about imports and exports.

proposal is to be gathered from different departments. Some data is obtained
from the foreign exchange department. Some data is obtained from current
account department and some data is available in advances department. The
purpose for which the financing is required should be explained very clearly. The
security offered by the party to the bank is also evaluated. In case of pledging of
the property in shape of land or building the complete evaluation of the property
should also be attached.
After all the requirements and necessary documents for applying for advances is
fulfilled by the party then, the case is sent to the Chief Manager for approval. If
the manager will find any discrepancies, he may write on these documents. If the
credit limit is in his range, he may approve the party for credit. If the amount is
exceeding the Chief Manager forward the case to the Circle Office for approval
and here the same procedure is repeated and if the credit amount is in the range
of GM, he can approve and if the credit amount is very large from Circle Office,
the case is then sent to Head Office and if it is a real big then is to be decided by
Board of Director. MCB provides advances which are two types. These are two
types of advances:

even compete with foreign banks. There are more than 1045 branches of MCB
all over Pakistan and out of these more than 300 branches are fully

the need for a technology department at each branch is growing. Now a day, a
computer division is working in each city to provide service to add the branches

more than 250 branches linked through this system and they can transact with

internship was six weeks which was ended at 22 august. It was almost
impossible to work in all the departments within that limited time. But on my
request, the staff of the branch provided me the opportunity to work in the
different departments for the sake of practical knowledge. I am very thankful to
branch manager Sir Ashiq Ali who provides me a learning environment in the
branch.
During my internship in MCB I have worked in different departments & seats and
learnt the followings.

INTERNSHIP REPORT

ACCOUNT OPENING DEPARTMENT


Account opening and closing is the function of accounts departments. Banks
customers may be individuals (Single or Joint), firms (partnership/proprietorship),
Autonomous

corporations,

Limited

Companies,

Charitable

Institutions,

Associations Educational Institutions or Local Bodies.

Basics to open an account


During the span of my internship in MCB, I learned and observed a lot about the
opening of an account. Basically I think that the opening of an account is the
establishment of a contractual relationship between the banker and the customer.
By opening an account at a bank a person becomes a customer of a bank.
Further I am going to express the basic requirements and steps involved in the
opening of an account.

Introduction and preliminary investigation


Before opening an account MCB as like the other banks in Pakistan ascertain
whether or not the person who is going to open the account is a desirable
customer or not. Then MCB determine the prospective customers integrity,
respectability, occupation and the nature of business by the introductory
references given at the time of account opening
In order to further strengthen and streamline this process, the Federal
Ombudsman of Pakistan, vide his ruling on complaint No. II/31/5186, has
directed the banks to retain with the account opening form a Photostat copy each
of the Computerized National Identity Cards of the person desiring to open an
account as well as that of the introducer. As per these directions, the concerned
Branch Managers are required to obtain the original National Identity Cards along
with their Photostat copies and then return the original after attesting the
authenticity of the retained copy.

Preliminary investigation is necessary because of the following


reasons:

Avoid frauds: In this regard I learned that if a banker does not make
the necessary inquiries mentioned above he may enable dishonest

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

persons to possess cheque books for fraudulent purposes. If any such


person happens to be an undercharged bankrupt, the banker might be
placed in an awkward position for having allowed such a person to open a
bank account.

Safeguard against unintended overdrafts: Sometimes due to a


mistake an account may be given an overdraft, For instance, the ledger
keeper, misreading the balance of an account honors a cheque for an
amount larger than the balance. Similarly a credit entry belonging to a
customer may be made by mistake in another customers account. In such
situations the excess amount withdrawn by the customer can only be
realized if the customer is a identifiable person.

Inquiries about clients: Being a banker I think MCB has a business


obligation to respond to inquiries from other banks etc. about his
customers financial position. Though the banker gives only a general idea
about the financial standing of his customer, it should nevertheless have
the necessary information available with him.

How to open an account (General)


Before opening an account in MCB I observed that the following points must be
considered in this regard.

Another account holder of the bank should properly introduce the new
customer.

The account holder should sign the account opening form in the presence
of bank officer and the signature is duly verified.

A copy of computerized national identity Card is required by Bank.

Against submission of the Banks prescribed application form, duly


introduced in the manner provided and on supplying such document, as
may be required and account may be opened. The Bank reserves to itself
the right to refuse to open and account without assigning any reason.

Each account shall be allotted a distinct number that is to be quoted in all


correspondence with the bank relation to the account.

Minimum amount for opening and continued maintenance of various types


of accounts is as follows:
Rs.
Saving

500

Current

Term Deposit 1000


The bank reserves the right to change the above mentioned minimum balance
requirement at any time without any notice.

Procedure to open an account


According to my practice in MCB, when a customer wants to open an account,
the bank officer gives him an application form. All information, which is necessary
to be known by the bank, are requirements of the application form. Form also
requires the essential documents to be attached by the customer.
Basically following information is required to open an account with MCB.

Title of Account

Full Name of Applicant

Occupation

Address

Telephone No.

Currency of account

Nature of Business

Introducers Name, Address & Signatures

Special instruction regarding the account

Initial Amount of the Deposit

different for different categories.

Societies / clubs and associations account


MCB is authorized to open the accounts of the societies/clubs and associations,
These are non-trading organizations, formed for the promotion of culture,
science, education, recreational activities and charitable purposes etc. some of
these institution are registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1866, and
are issued a certificate of registration after they have been found fit for
registration.

Specimen signature
When an account is opened with MCB customer provides to the bank a
specimen of the form of signature which would appear on all his cheques to
express his authority for the payment of cheques drawn on his banker. This
specimen is taken generally on a card specially designed for this purpose, and
rule for the customers, full name, and account number are entered on it.
If the bank has reasons to doubt the genuineness of a signature, he should either
get it confirmed for his satisfaction or return the cheque with the remark
Signature differs. If the signature of the customer is forged the banker cannot
escape his liability because he has actually acted on his customers mandate.

Issuance of cheque book


When a customer opens an account with the bank, he is provided with cheque
book for withdrawals from account. However, the first cheque book is given to the
customer only when all the required documents are checked. A cheque book

THIRD WEEEK
FOREIGN EXCHANGE DEPARTMENT
In my third week of internship I work in foreign exchange department. The most
important thing that I learned in this department was the transaction with letter of
credit.
The steps involved in any international trade transaction are:
The Pakistan Importer places an order with the US exporter and asked the
American if he would be willing to ship under L/C.
The US exporter agrees to ship under a L/C and specifies relevant
information such as prices and delivery terms.
Power Plants The Pak. Importer applies to MCB for a L/C to be issued in
favor of the US exporter for the merchandise the importer wishes to buy.
MCB issues a L/C in the Pak. Importers favor and sends it to the US
exporters bank, the Bank of New York.

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

The bank of New York advises the US exporter of the opening of a L/C in
his favor.
The US exporter ships the goods to the Pak. Importers on a common
carrier. An official of the carrier gives the exporter a bill of lading.
The US exporter presents a 90-days draft drawn on MCB in accordance
with its L/C and the bill of lading to the bank of New York. The US exporter
endorses bill of lading so title to the goods is transferred to the Bank of
New York.
The Bank of New York sent the draft and bill of lading to MCB. MCB
accept the draft taking possession of the documents and promising to pay
the now accepted draft in 90-days.
MCB returns the accepted draft to the Bank of New York.
The Bank of New York tells the US exporter that it has received the
accepted bank draft, which is payable in 90 days.
The exporter sells the draft to the Bank of New York at a discount from its
face value and receives the discounted cash value of the draft in return.
MCB notifies the Pak. Importer of the arrival of the documents. He/She
agrees to pay MCB in 90 days. MCB releases the documents so the
importer can take possession of the shipment.
In 90 days MCB receives the importers payment, so it has funds to pay
the maturing draft.

FOURTH WEEK

important department of MCB which deals in money.

bound to send its excess cash to the State Bank of Pakistan. No branch can
have cash its safe more than its insurance at any time at the time of closing cash,
if it is so the manager will be responsible whether or not he informed to the
regional office (exception to the limit which is insured for the day).

cash with stamp and signature at the end I would like to conclude that the cash
management is being done in the MCB very effectively.

collection department as the MCB collects utility bills on behalf of WAPDA, Sui
Gas Companies, and Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Limited by putting

officer receiving the utility bills. After receiving utility bills a list is made on the

SWOT ANALYSIS
The SWOT analysis of MCB is as follows:

STRENGTHS
The strengths of MCB are:
Good reputation
MCB is the first Pakistani privatized bank because of its quality management,
marketing, innovation in products and services. Due to all such factors they have
established a good reputation in the banking market.
Strong branch network
There are large number of branches of MCB and still more branches are under
expansion plan. All the branches of MCB are in commercial areas.
Trained, Skilled & cooperative employees
The name of MCB makes you recall the highly cooperative and professional
individuals ready to serve you with maximum co-operation. Personnel of MCB
are well trained and highly skilled. Majority of employees has many years of

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

experience in banking sector and are an asset for the bank. The joining of
experienced people, advanced management, advance setup and facilities gave
MCB an edge over its competitors
Faster banking services
MCB has faster banking services that are making it more prominent in the
banking industry especially in operations and Foreign exchange. Moreover bank
provides high status services in every field, whether consumer banking,
commercial banking & corporate banking
Reasonable service charges
The customer prefers this bank not only because of its faster speedy service but
also due to reasonable service charges.
Strict advances policy
One of the major strengths of MCB Bank is that very less amounts of debts turn
doubtful or bad due to their conservative policy.

Highly automated bank


MCB in Pakistan is also in the list of highly automated banks because of its
modern style of banking through fully computerized control and twenty four hour
banking.

WEAKNESSES
The weaknesses in MCB would be categorized as following:
Insufficient advertisement
The majority of people are not well aware about the products of MCB. Therefore
it should advertise extensively especially RTC and Master Cards.
Behavior towards customer
A behavior has been noted that bank tries to feel at ease with good looking, rich
and educated people and the poor looking customers feel some bit strange in the
environment of the bank. The bank employees should try to accommodate
behaviorally all types of customers.
Inefficient HR policies

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

In MCB there is lack of specialized skill because of job rotation policy of human
resource department. The bank should concentrate upon increasing its abilities
on individual service basis.
Mismanagement of time
Mismanagement of time is another big mistake in MCB

branches, the bank

official time of closing is 5:30pm but due mismanagement of time allocation staff
is normally on their seats till 7:00 or 8:00o clock.
Overloading of work on employees
Most of the employees of MCB are overloaded with work. There is uneven
distribution of work. Promotions are not very timely.
Outdated software
The version of the software (MIBS) used by MCB is outdated. The newer version
is available but it is not applied in all the branches. So the branches with old
software have less efficiency as compared to the branches with new software.

OPPORTUNITIES
Opportunities for MCB are:
Emphasis on information technology
All the opportunities of the 21st century are to be availed in the information
technology. Information technology is the future. Therefore MCB should
emphasize much on IT, especially the E Banking. Bank can design a universal
account like other foreign banks, to enhance online facilities.
Effect of Privatization
The need of privatization has made people to switch to banks to satisfy their
needs of lending and borrowing. This not only increases the deposits but also the
credit business.
Branch network
Due to lenient licensing policy by SBP MCB Bank has more opportunities to open
new branches.
To be in the list of top banks

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

MCB bank has grown up its business with a very high pace and it has got
tremendous popularity. There are many opportunities for the bank and by availing
that it can stand amongst the top banks.
Marketing
More market share and customers can be gained by effective marketing
strategies. New customer friendly products can be introduced.

THREATS
The threats from which MCB should be aware of are:
Government policies
Change in government policies has affected the banking business. Still banks
have to wait to get permission of state bank. The freezing of foreign currency
accounts is a vital example of letting people not to trust on banks.
Increased competition in banking market
The Competition has become severe by the entrants of so many banks, So to
exist one will have to prove himself in its services through excellent management
and will have to satisfy its shareholders. Otherwise he will be out of the market.
Unstable economic situation
The decrease purchasing power of consumer in the current economic situation of
the country affecting the business activity speed too much and the result is the
low investment from the investors in new projects. The recession experienced by
the economy has overall affected the banking industry.

RECOMMENDATIONS
From the Quantum of the profit and its financial data it can be easily judged that
after privatization, MCB is performing well. Its deposits are growing day by day.
The controlling body is responsible for the productive performance of the Bank.
Following are my observation and suggestion to improve the efficiency for the
development of the bank.

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

There is a criticism on the banking management that the salaries of the


employees are decreasing in every succeeding year. And I think this will
shake the confidence and working habit of the employees.
There is another recommendation about the bank that there is no proper
timing of the bank and unnecessary delay is made in the banking
transactions, which might not be a good sign for the bank from future
prosperity point of view.
Staff turnover particularly trained staff results in financial and other losses.
The amount spent by the bank on employment, induction and training of
outgoing officers constitutes to beat till another officer should ready prove
this work. The exodus of bank officer in the past has worsened the
situation.
Most of the bank employees, are sticking to one seat only with the result
that they become master of one particular job and loose their grip on other
banking operation. In my opinion all the employees should have regular
job experience all out-look towards banking. The promotion policy should
be adjusted.
Refresher Courses for the staff are most important in any international
organization. All the employees should have these courses according to
their requirement. Foreign experts can also be called for this purpose.
Every year some of the employees should be sent for training to other
countries and employees from other branches should be brought here.
Some more reading material should be provided. The purpose should be
to educate the employees with the advance studies in their field. The
employee should be provided the opportunities to attend and participate in
seminars and lectures on banking.
Bank should give some more incentive to its employees in order to
remove the conflict between lower and higher officers and should try to
improve the working condition of the bank.

University of Gujrat

INTERNSHIP REPORT

As such system should be designed that every employee who has some
problems with his officers can communicate it to the higher management
and some steps must be taken to improve that.
Recruitments should be strictly on merit basis and induction should be
after proper and extensive training.
Old and lazy staff should be replaced by young, qualified and energetic
staff.
Foreign branches should be opened in order to capture the international
market and to earn international repute for the bank.
Working environment, equipment, furniture and staff dressing should be
according to the modern banking style.
Proper attention should be paid to upgrade customer services.
Bank should adopt the global organizational banking structure to meet the
international standards of banking sector.

Conclusion
It is evident from this report and the financial statements of MCB that it is making
progress by leaps and bounds. The profits of MCB have grown considerably
during the last few years and this trend is expected to continue into the future.
Therefore, we conclude that MCB has a very prosperous present and future,
which assures the shareholders of wealth maximization. Side by side of it I think
that if bank would be able to cover and control on the above mentioned
recommendations then it would be in such a situation that will really lead it
towards the road of prosperity, development and integrity. And with the above
mentioned sentences I think there is also a fault of the customers and in order to
make the proper working of the bank the customers should also cooperate with
the bank which will be really a good, ambitious and diligent condition for the
bank. And then bank will be really in such a situation and position to compete its
competitors in the country as well as on international level.
