Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


To provide professional management education with a blend of computer and
management information system courses.
To build ethical and professional responsibility.
To build the conceptual and analytical framework for making decisions.

As prescribed by the course we got to do an internship program of six


weeks. After the basic study of one year the internship program is launched.
It is the only way to expose ourselves, give our identity to the outside world.
It is really one of the appreciable tasks that Bangalore University does. It is a
great chance for students like us to be aware of the real world. Though we
did organizational visit as well as industrial visit frequently during the course
of study from different perspective but internship program was totally a new
and remarkable experience. It was like a mind preparation before to the real
job market.

Being a student of MBA of SAMS, and to fulfill the requirements of the


course, I was assigned to work as an intern at NMB Bank which is located at
babarmahal Kathmandu Nepal. Working as an intern in NMB Bank, I have
gained some practical knowledge of the banking sector which will be plus
point for my future career.

1.2 Industry Profile

1.2.1. Definition of the Bank


Bank constitutes an important segment of the financial infrastructure of
any country. The economic history of many countries reveals that
economic development and growth of financial infrastructure go hand in
hand. There is interaction between the two. Without the growth in
financial infrastructure, there can be no development and that latter in
turn changes the shape and size of the financial infrastructure.

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


When we say a bank, it is related to collecting deposits, advancing loans
and other credit activities. A bank will generally collect deposits from
different individuals and institutions. The collected deposits are utilized for
giving loans to different industries and commercial enterprises. Besides
those activities, a bank performs payment and remittance and other
activities. Simply stating, a bank is a financial institution, which deals with
money by accepting various types of deposits, disbursing loans and
rendering other financial services. Since banks are rendering a wide range
of services to the people of different walks of life, they have become an
essential part of modern society.

The money a bank receives as deposits from both individuals and large
companies becomes a banks liability. The bank receives assets in the
form of the interest it charges on loans made to governments, businesses,
and private individuals. This chart depicts how this process works.

Figure 1.1: Liabilities and Assets in


According
Bankingto the Nepal Rastra Bank Act (2002), Bank is a financial
institution, which provides financial services that may be in the form of
accepting deposits, advancing loan, providing necessary technical
advices, dealing over foreign currencies, remitting funds, etc. (as cited in
B.Dahal; S.Dahal, 2002, p.7).

According to the shorter oxford English dictionary, "A bank is an


establishment for the custody of money received from or on behalf of its

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


customer essential duty is to pay their draft on is profit areas from its use
of the money left unemployed by them".(as cited in B.Dahal; S.Dahal,
2002, p.7).

By these definitions, bank can easily be defined as the custodian of deposit.


The transactions in the financial market heavily depend upon the banking
system of the country. Without bank it would be quite impossible for the
industrialist and entrepreneurs to go directly to the general public for
getting their saving for investments. So the simplest definition is that, bank
takes the saving of the public by providing them certain rate of interest and
earns some profit by providing these saving to the industrialist and
entrepreneurs who need it by charging some interest.

1.2.2. Origin of Banking Sector

Banking has come to the present advancement form through various


stages. Some sorts of banking activities have been carried out since the
time immemorial. Traditional forms of banking were traced during the
civilization of Greek, Rome and Mesopotamia.

In Greece , the temples of Delphi and other safer places acted as store
houses for the precious metals before the days of coinage and in later
times, they lent out money for public and private purposes at the interest
though they paid none themselves. Private money changers began with
the task of reducing many metallic currencies more or less exactly to a
common unit of value and went on to accept money on deposit at interest
and to lend it out at higher interest permitting meanwhile drafts to be
drawn on them.

In ancient times or in ancient Vedic era, there was a crude form of banking
because deposits pledges policy of loan and interest rates can be traced
out from Manusmriti. In the 15 th and 16th century Roman Empire
collapsed. As a result revival of commercial and trading activities started

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


in different European countries. The three ancestors of banking who
revived the commercial banking transactions are:
-Merchant traders
-The governments, and
-The moneylender

It may be said that banking in its most simple form, is as old as authentic
history. The origin of banking, in the modern sense, is traced to Italy. The
word bank is supported to have been derived from the Italian word,
Banco which refers to the place for keeping, lending and exchanging
money. The early banking was however closely associated with the
business of money changing. In connection to traceable origin and
development of banking institution in the world, The Bank of Venice of
Italy established in 1157 A.D. is supposed to be the most ancient banking
institution in the world. The Bank of Venice was the first public banking
institution. The second bank was The Bank of Barcelona of Spain
established in 1401 A.D. Subsequently The Bank of Geneva was
established in 1407 A.D. The Bank of Amsterdam set up in 1609 A. D.
was very popular. The Bank of Hindustan established in 1770 A.D. is
regarded as the first bank in India .These modern banks gradually
replaced goldsmiths and moneylenders. After the evolution of The Bank
of England in 1694, there comes a remarkable change in the process of
establishing the banking institution. The idea of commercial banks rapidly
spread all over the world only after the foundation of this bank (B. Dahal;
S. Dahal, 2000).

1.2.3. Origin of Bank in Nepal

As in other countries, goldsmiths and landlords were the ancient bankers


of Nepal. During the Prime Minister of Rannoddip Singh in 1877 A.D.
number of economic and financial reforms was introduced. In Nepal
Tejarath Adda established during the tenure of then Prime Minister

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


Rannoddip Singh in 1937 B.S. was the first step toward the institutional
development of banking in Nepal .The establishment of the institution was
to relief the people from the exorbitant rate of interest charged by outside
valley; including the Terai Region. Thus establishment of this institution
marked the beginning of extending credit to any moneylender. It was set
up with a sole objective to provide loans to employees and public against
bullion but it did not collect deposits from the public (B. Dahal; S. Dahal,
2000).

Banking in true sense started in Nepal with the inception of Nepal Bank
Ltd. on 30 Kartik, 1994 B.S. during the time of Juddha Shumsher. Right
from the inception, it carried out functions of a commercial bank .Nepal
Bank Ltd. had a Herculean responsibility to attract people toward banking
sector from pre- dominant Sahu Mahayanas transaction and to introduce
other banking services as well. Nepal Bank Ltd. as a first commercial bank
of Nepal was established 128 years after the establishment of first
commercial bank in India. In this way, as compared to India, Nepal lags
behind 128 years even for establishing a simple banking institution (B.
Dahal; S. Dahal, 2000).

Having felt the need of development of banking sector and to help the
government formulate monetary policies, Nepal Rastra Bank was set up in
2013 BS as the central bank of Nepal. Since then, it has been functioning
as the governments bank and had contributed to the growth of financial
sector (B. Dahal; S. Dahal, 2000).

Integrated and speedy development of the country is possible only when


competitive banking services reaches nooks and corners of the country. In
order to fulfill this objective, government set up Rastriya Banijya Bank in
2022 BS as a fully government owned commercial bank . With the coming
up Rastriya Banijya Bank, banking services spread to both the rural and
urban areas. In order to provide service to the agriculture sector,

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


Agriculture development Bank was established in 2024 B.S (B. Dahal; S.
Dahal, 2000).

The government of Nepal adopted liberal economic policy to accelerate


countrys growth and development. Foreign investment and participation
of private sector were encouraged. The government then enacted Joint
Venture Banking policy. Accordingly Nepal allowed establishing different
joint venture banks under the collaborations with foreign banks. As per
Shrestha & Bhandari, 2007; different joint venture banks in Nepal are as
follows:

Nepal Arab Bank Ltd. (Currently named as Nabil in 1984).

Nepal Indosuez Bank Ltd. (Currently named as Nepal Investment Bank


in 1987).

Nepal Grindlays Bank. (Currently named as Standard Chartered Bank in


1990).

Himalayan Bank Ltd. collaborated with Habib Bank of Pakistan.

Nepal State Bank of India.

Nepal Bangladesh Bank Ltd.

Everest Bank Ltd. collaborated in Punjab National Bank.

Bank of Ceylon (Currently named as Nepal Industrial and Commercial


Bank).

Bank of Kathmandu Ltd. (Previously collaborated with Bank of Thailand


and present fully locally owned).

In order to operate commercial banks in Nepal, uniformity of banking acts


are essential. So a commercial Bank Act 2031 BS was enacted and has
been amended many times in accordance with the needs (B. Dahal; S.
Dahal, 2000).

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


Now Bank and Financial Institutions Act (BAFIA) has come into enforced
from 2063.

1.2.4. Types of Banks

As a single bank cannot fulfil all services of customer, banks can be


categorized into various types according to their specialized functional
areas. They are as follows:

I. Central bank

Broadly speaking, central banks serve as the governments banker, as


the banker to the banking system, and as the policymaker for
monetary and financial matters. The bank of England established in
1694 A.D. is the first central bank in worlds banking history. In Nepal,
Nepal Rastra Bank established in 2013 B.S. (1956 A.D.) is the central
bank.

II. Retail Banks

1. Commercial bank

2. Development bank

3. Finance Companies

4. Micro Credit Development Bank

1.2.5. Commercial Banks in Nepal

There are many kinds of banks like commercial banks, saving banks,
investment banks, industrial banks, co-operative banks, central banks etc.
But when we use the term bank without any prefix or qualifications, it
refers to the commercial bank. According to BAFIA 2063, A commercial
bank means bank which deals in exchanging currency, accepting deposits,
giving loans and doing commercial transactions.

A commercial bank is a financial institution which collect saving from


many individuals and institutions provides credit or loan facilities to
different industrial and commercial business. The important distinction
that distinguishes commercial banks from all other kinds of financial
institution is that it alone can hold deposit to be drawn upon by cheque. It

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


has the power to create and destroy money, within limits, through the use
of loans and demand deposits. Commercial banks lend money by creating
demand deposit and retire loans by canceling demand deposits.

Commercial banks are organized on joint stock company system, primarily


for purpose of earning profit. The term commercial bank is a holdover
from an earlier when banks were predominantly short- term financiers.
Now their lending are no longer confined to short term commercial loans
only. Today those so-called commercial banks have diversified their
activities to a point where they may be referred to as departmental
stores of finance.

List of Commercial Banks of Nepal:


The history of commercial banks in Nepal starts from the establishment of
Nepal Bank Limited on 1994 BS and prior to this, there was no such
organized banking system in the country. The list of commercial banks
operating in Nepal is shown below with their year of operation, head office

1.3 Company Profile

1.3.1. Inception, History and Present Status

Established in 1996, NMB Bank is the first Commercial Bank of Nepal that
has been able to upgrade from a Finance Company to a full-fledged
Commercial Bank. Nepal Merchant Banking and Finance Ltd., the erstwhile
name of the institution, was amongst the leading financial institutions in
its category until May 2008 when the transformation process for the up
gradation was complete and changed its name to NMB Bank Limited.

NMB is the brainchild of leading Nepali entrepreneurs with dream of


framing the ultimate in Merchant Banking and Financial Services.
Harnessing from its strength on Merchant Banking the Bank has decided
to broaden its scope of services by building synergies to its current
operations. This unprecedented event has been possible by way of strong
commitment and confidence of all the stakeholders viz. customers,
promoters, shareholders, regulators, and employees.

A team of experienced bankers and professionals manages NMB. As one of


the leading banks in Nepal, they are committed to the cause of society.
The commitment has always been to behave ethically and to contribute
towards the improvement of quality of life of the people, the community
and the greater society. The Bank has done well in all its core areas.

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


service experience and are always looking for ways to improve their
service standard.

There has been a continuous surge in the number of financial institutions


in the country. This has heightened competition amongst these
institutions, which is not good for the economy as a whole. Instead of
quantity, NMB focuses on enhancing the quality and strength of the
existing institutions. This has significance in the context of WTO
agreement also, as per which Nepal is set to open up its banking industry
for foreign players in 2010.

product and services. The bank has been constantly making effort to

order to reconcile orders between transacting parties. The clearing
department mainly deals with cheques, drafts or negotiable instruments
that come into the transaction of the bank. This department largely deals
with cheques that a customer deposits or withdraws from the bank.

Cheque

A cheque, also spelled check, is a negotiable instrument instructing a


financial institution to pay a specific amount of a specific currency from a
specified demand account held in the maker/depositor's name with that
institution. Both the maker and payee may be natural persons or legal
entities.

) , itself the
The English word cheque comes from the Arabic akk (
Arabicized of '( )pronounced check' in Persian, which is a written
document or letter or note of credit Muslim merchants -and everybody

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


else- adopted to carry out their trading. The concept of akk appeared in
European documents around 1220, mostly in areas neighbouring Muslim
Spain and North Africa, south France and Italy.1

Cheques generally contain:

1. Drawer

2. Drawee

3. Payee

4. Account number

5. Cheque number

6. Date of issue

7. Amount

8. Currency of the instrument

9. Signature of the drawer

10. Cash denomination table(at the reverse side)

A cheque is generally valid for six months after the date of issue unless
otherwise indicated; this varies depending on where the cheque is drawn.
In Australia, for example, it is fifteen months. In the United States, it is six
months. If indicated the validity may vary.

Types of cheques:

1. Open cheque

1 www.wikipedia.org

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


A cheque is called Open when it is possible to get cash over the counter
at the bank.

The holder of an open cheque can do the following:

Receive its payment over the counter at the bank

Deposit the cheque in his own account

Pass it to someone else by signing on the back of a cheque

2. Crossed cheque

Since open cheque is subject to risk of theft, it is dangerous to issue such


cheques. This risk can be avoided by issuing another type of cheque
called Crossed cheque. The payment of such cheque is not made over
the counter at the bank. It is only credited to the bank account of the
payee. A cheque can be crossed by drawing two transverse parallel lines
across the cheque, with or without the writing Account payee or Not
Negotiable.

When a cheque bears across its face two parallel transverse lines, the
cheque is said to be crossed. The lines are usually drawn on the left-hand
top corner of the cheque. It is the collecting bank which has to ensure that
the proceeds are credited to the account of payee only and no other. If the
collecting banker allows the proceeds of the cheque so crossed to be
credited to any other account, he may be held guilty of negligence in the
event of an action for wrongful conversion of funds being brought against
him.

3. Bearer cheque

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


A cheque which is payable to any person who presents it for payment at
the bank counter is called Bearer cheque. A bearer cheque can be
transferred by mere delivery and requires no endorsement.

4. Order cheque

An order cheque is one which is payable to a particular person. In such a


cheque, the word bearer may be cut out or cancelled and the word
order may be written. The payee can transfer an order cheque to
someone else by signing his or her name behind the cheque.

Some variant types of cheques:

Personal Cheque

Cashier's Cheque

Certified Cheque

Travellers Cheque

In the clearing department of a bank, all types of cheques are categorized


into two types:

Outward cheques

Inward cheques

Outward Cheques

Outward cheques are the cheques of other banks or financial institutions


that a customer presents in the bank. According to the flow of cheques, it
seems to be an inward cheque but the cheque finally goes to the
clearinghouse or the respective bank for settlement, hence it is called
outward cheque. Outward cheques bring money into the bank.

Sambhram Academy of Management Studies Page


E.g.: If Bank As customer presents a cheque belonging to bank B to
deposit into bank A then that cheque is outward cheque for bank A.

Inward Cheques

Inward cheques are the home cheques of the bank that other banks or
financial institution present for settlement via clearinghouse or the banks
counter.

E.g.: If the same bank As customer presents bank As cheque in bank B,


then bank B presents the cheque to bank A for verification and settlement
which is inward cheque for bank A.

recommendation can be made to the NMB:

Customer should be well informed and updated with the bank rules
and regulations.

The staffs and interns should be regularly given new information so


that they could easily handle the queries customer. The staffs of
customer service are busier so either for the proper interaction with
the customer the interns should be provided with the proper
information or the staffs should be increased in the customer service
department because this department is like the front desk where the
customer gets the first impression about the Bank.

NMB need to formulate a competitive strategy in order to ensure its


survival in the face of intense competition.

Efforts should be made for the motivation of the staffs in order to


initiate them personally for the effective work and make them
responsible for the job they are in. Staffs needs to be motivated for
bringing the accounts and loyal customer to the organization.

There should be proper system of reward management and care
should be taken for the job satisfaction of all level of employee
irrespective of the position and the nature of work.

Maintaining and improving customer relationship is also important so


that they can contact in near future.

The Banks deposits trend is increasing. The loan is in increasing


trend but slope of loan trend is smaller than the slope of deposits.
Therefore, NMB needs to adapt new policies and strategies in order
to utilize its available deposits.

The Bank needs to heavily invest in the Research and Development


department to cope with the present technological advancement.

The Bank needs to rethink on its interest rates on loan to make it


comparable with the market interest rate on similar products.

The bank should provide more attention to the priority sectors, like
agriculture and small-scale industry while mobilizing its resources to
contribute to the balanced economic development of the country as
well as to be distinct service provider than its competitors should.
