EVOLUTION OF BANKING The word 'Bank' is said to have been derived from the words Bancus or Banque or Bank.

This history of banking is traced to as early as 2000 B.C. The priests in Greece used to keep money and valuables of the people in temples. These priests thus acted as financial agents. The origin of banking is also traced to early goldsmiths. They used to keep strong safes for storing the money and valuables of the people. The persons who had surplus money found it safe and convenient of deposit their valuables with them. The first stage in the development of modern banking, thus, was the accepting of deposits of cash from those persons who had surplus money with them. The goldsmiths used to issue receipts for the money deposited with them. These receipts began to pass from hand to hand in settlement of transactions because people had confidence in the integrity and solvency of goldsmiths. When it was found that these receipts were fully accepted in payment of debts; then the receipts were drawn in such a way that it entitled any holder to claim the specified amount of money from goldsmiths. A depositor who is to make the payments may now get the money in cash from goldsmiths or pay over the receipt to the creditor. These receipts were the earlier bank notes. The second stage in the development of banking thus was the issue of bank notes. The goldsmiths soon discovered that all the people who had deposited money with them do not come to withdraw their funds in cash. They found that only a few persons presented the receipts for encashment during a given period of time. They also found that most of the money deposited with them was lying idle. At the same time; they found that they were being constantly requested for loan on good security. They thought it profitable to lend at least some of the money deposited with them to the needy persons. This proved quite a profitable business for the_ goldsmiths. They instead of charging safe keeping charges from the depositors began to give them interest on the money deposited with them. This was the third stage in the development of banking. DEFINITION OF A BANK: The term 'bank' is being used for a long time, yet it has no precise definition. The basic reason is that the commercial banks perform not just one but many types of functions. The term bank has been defined differently by different authors. Some are as follows: According to Crowther, "Bank is a dealer in debtshis own and of other people." According to G.W. Gilbert, "A banker is a dealer in capital or more properly a dealer in money. He is an intermediate party between the borrower and the lender. He borrows from one party and lends to another." According to Banking companies ordinance 1962 u/s3(B) of Banking Companies Ordinance 1962 "Banker means person transacting the business of accepting for the purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise and withdraw able by cheque, draft, order or otherwise and includes any Post Office Savings Bank."

COMMERCIAL BANKING IN PAKISTAN The interesting point which I observed during the span of mine internship was the historical background of Banking & Financial sector which is the one in which great improvement and growth is observed since the formation of Pakistan. For studying the growth of this sector we can divide it into three stages, which are as follows: a) Pre-Nationalization Era b) Nationalization Era c) Post Nationalization Era A) PRE NATIONALIZATION PERIOD: There were only two Muslim banks in Indo Pak before partition, they were; Habib Bank Ltd. (estd. in 1941 at Bombay) & Australia Bank Ltd. (estd. In 1944 at Lahore). All other banks, at that time, were either owned by Hindus or Foreigners. At the time of partition there were 631 bank branches in area which came under Pakistani control. But due to blood shed and violence at large scale, mostly branches were closed and the disparity can be assessed from the fact that on July 1948 there were 195 branches with deposits of Rs.88 crore (880 million) only. Also a factor lagging in Pakistani industry was a central bank of its own, by that time Reserve Bank of India was acting as central bank for both countries and same currency notes were used in both territories. But Reserve Bank of India was biased and Set down Pakistan on many occasions such as the issue of funds transfer etc. In this period drastic steps were taken in government sector for the improvement of overall position. The private sector also responded to these changes and some very positive changes were observed. Some of the steps taken by the government in this regard were as under: 1) Inauguration of State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on 1st July, 1948. 2) Setting up of National Bank of Pakistan in November, 1949 to control the 'jute' export

in East Pakistan and to act as agent of SBP. 3) Larger powers were given to SBP through SBP Act (1956) for controlling purposes. 4) Banking Companies Ordinance 1962 for protection and guidance to banks. 5) Establishment of specialized banks, such as ADBP (1952); a) HBFC (Nov, 1952); b) P1CIC (Oct, 1957) c) IDBP (Aug. 1961); d) NDFC (Jan, 1973). These were the steps, which built a strong banking sector in Pakistan. This is also obvious from the facts that by 1973 there were almost 10 foreign banks were working in Pakistan and all over deposit position was around Rs.2300 crore (23,000 million). A bird eye view of 5 top banks was as given below: BANK POSITION IN 1973 BANK NO. OF BRANCHES DEPOSITS HBL 667 6,160 NBP 579 5,660 UBL 497 5,670 MCB 506 1,640 ABL 145 570 B) NATIONALIZATION PERIOD On January 01, 1974 all Pakistani banks were nationalized through Nationalization Act 1974. Under this law all Pakistani banks became a public property. All small banks were merged in bigger banks to create 5 major Pakistani banks Pakistani banks. These banks were to control by Pakistan Banking Council. There are still controversies about this act of government as whether it contributed in success of failure of banks. However the major changes after nationalization were as follows: Working of banks was extended to under developed areas. Market expansion for credit and deposits. Decrease in service level of bank officers.

 Decrease in profitability as well. However the effect of expansion was enormous and it can also be depicted with the help of table 2 which shows the deposit & branch positions of different nationalized banks. BANK POSITION IN 1992 Bank No. of Branches Deposits (Rs. In Millions) HBL 1926 153,431 NBP 1448 128,679 UBL 1684 87,482 MCB 1288 50,013 ABL 750 33,757 TOTAL 7096 453,362 C) POST NATIONALIZATION ERA In 1990 the government decided to denationalize all the nationalized institutes. Some was also suggested in banking sector. For this purpose, amendments were made to Nationalization Act 1974 and two nationalized banks were privatized. Along with this a permission to open banks in private sector was also granted. The rules regarding establishment of new banks and for incoming foreign banks were also Relaxed. The-three privatized banks are; a) MCB taken up by a private group in April, 1991 b) ABL taken up by its own employees in September, 1991. c) UBL taken up by UAE party in 2002. After these changes a large number of private and foreign banks started their operations in Pakistan and the present status can be seen from the following figures:

SCHEDULE BANKS Category No. of Banks Nationalized Commercial Banks 3 Private / Privatized Commerce Banks 18 Public Sector Specialized Banks 4 Foreign Banks 19 Total Schedule Banks 44 In addition to above mentioned scheduled banks there are 7 Development Financial Institutes, 14 Investment Banks and Modarbah Companies. MUSLIM COMMERCIAL BANK LTD. (HISTORICAL BACKGROUND) Now let us discuss the historical background of Muslim Commercial Bank Limited. 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 Muslim Commercial 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. 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. DEVELOPMENTS After privatization, the growth in every department of the bank has been observed. Following are some key developments: 1) Launching of different deposit schemes to increase saving level.

2) Increased participation on foreign trade. 3) Betterment of branches and staff service level. 4) Introduction of Rupee Traveler Cheques & Photo Credit Card for the first time in Pakistan. 5) Extended use of information technology which is evident from the fact that there are 768 fully automated branches, 243 online branches (integrated networking), 151 ATMS in 27 cities nation wide and a M.C.B continuously innovate new product.

FIELDS OF ACTIVITIES OF MCB The purpose of banks is to provide some services to the general public. And for this purpose different banks provide different services to the people in different forms. The Muslim Commercial Bank (MCB) is a commercial bank, in modern time commercial banks play a very important role and their functions are manifold. The main functions and services which Muslim Commercial Bank Limited provides to different peoples are as follows. 1) Open Different accounts for different peoples 2) Accepting various types of deposits 3) Accepting various types of deposits 4) Granting loans & advances 5) Undertaking of agency services and also general utility functions, few of those are as under: a) Collecting cheques and bill of exchange for the customers. b) Collecting interest due, dividend, pensions and other sum due to customers. c) Transfer of money from place to place. d) Acting an executor, trustee or attorney for the customers. Providing safe custody and facilities to keep jewellery, documents or securities. e) Issuing of travelers cheques and letters of credit to give credit facilities to travel. f) Accepting bills of exchange on behalf of customers. g) Purchasing shares for the customers. h) Undertaking foreign exchange business. i) Furnishing trade information and tendering advice to customers. For proper functioning of branches and the over all bank has been divided in different departments. These departments handle different jobs so that division of work is there for improvement of functions and also it is easy to control the situation. The general division in a branch is as follows:

1) Cash department 2) Deposit department 3) Advances & credit department 4) Foreign exchange department Technology department (new addition in order to cop with the growing needs of day to day technology requirements) CASH DEPARTMENT The following books are maintained in the Cash Department: 1. Receiving Cash Book 2. Paying Cash Book 3. Token Book 4. Scroll Book 5. Cash Balance Book When cash is received in counter, it is entered in the Scroll Book and Receiving Cashier Book. At the close of the day, these are balanced with each other. When the cheque or any negotiable instrument is presented at counter for payment, it is entered in the token book and token is issued to the customer. The token clerk and the Cashier make entries in the paying book and payment is made to payee. At the close of day, the Token Book and Paying Cashier Book are balanced. The consolidated figure of receipt and payment of cash is entered in the cash balance book and drawn closing balance of cash. Opening Balance + Receipts - Payments = closing Balance. This is very important department because cash is the most liquid asset and mostly frauds are made in this department, therefore, extra care is taken in this department and nobody is allowed to enter or leave the area freely. Mostly, cash area is grilled and its door is under supervision of the head of that department. All the books maintained in this department are checked by an officer. DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT Bank deals in money and they are merely mobilizing funds 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. The total deposits of MCB are growing since its inauguration but after privatization there is a sharp incline in over all deposits of the bank. The increase in deposits is also a cause of increase on total number of accounts; bank has progressed in both aspects. TYPES OF DEPOSITS Deposits can be segregated on two bases, one is the duration in which there funds are expected to be with the bank and second is the cost of getting these funds. So divide

deposits in two classes according to duration of deposits i.e. 1) Time deposits / liabilities 2) Demand deposits / liabilities And on the basis of the cost to acquire these funds, a deposit can be classified as any one of following four, High Cost Medium Cost, Low Cost No Cost. Banks has different kinds of deposit schemes in order to induce deposits. These schemes are a mixture of the above mentioned two types of deposits with an addition of different services & requirements such as minimum balance' requirement, mode of transaction, basis for calculation of profit, deductions, additional benefits, eligibility for different groups. In the similar fashion, MCB has a large variety of deposit schemes and some of them are as follows: CURRENT A/C (CD): In this type of accounts the client is allowed to deposit or withdraw money as and when he likes. He may, thus, deposits or withdraws money several times in a day if he likes. There is also no restriction of amount to be deposited or withdrawn. However, there is requirement of minimum balance maintenance of Rs. 1000/-. Usually this type of account is opened by the businessmen. No profit is paid by the bank and no service charges are deducted by the bank on current deposits account. These types of deposits are also exempt from compulsory deduction of Zakat. PLS SAVING BANK A/C (SA): This type of account is for those persons who want to make small savings'. This type of account is opened with a minimum deposit of Rs. 1000/-. Under this scheme deposits can be made only up to a-costing amount and withdrawals are allowed twice a week or 8 times a month. If a big amount is required a seven days notice is required before the withdrawal. The profit is paid on these accounts on the minimum balance during a month for the whole of that month. Zakat & other withholding taxes are deducted as per rules of the government. KUSHALI BACHAT A/C (KBA): This is an advance form of PLS saving a/c, in this type of account. The minimum balance requirement for this type is Rs. 2500/-. There is also restriction on the number of withdrawals as well, i.e. up to 4 times in a calendar month. For maintaining this extra balance the customer gets the benefits of profit calculation on daily product basis and also free service of standing instructions of paying utility bills and HBFC installments. All other rules of saving account are applicable. PLS 365 SAVING A/C: This is a special type of saving account in which customer maintains a minimum balance of Rs. 300,000- and in turn he gets the benefits of daily profit calculations and also there is no restriction on the maximum number of withdrawals as was there in the case of KBA. There is also another advantage of this scheme that if balance on a particular day falls below the minimum balance then only the product of that day is ignored whereas in KBA, if balance falls below the minimum limit then all the products for that month are

ignored on in other words no profit is paid for that month. NOTE: PLS Saving, Kushali Bachat & PLS 365 saving accounts can be opened in foreign currency also. Before nuclear tests of 1998 these accounts were opened in four major currencies but now these are only opened in USD ($). However, now bank discourages the opening of foreign currency accounts because no forward cover risk is provided by State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and all the loss in case of devaluation or depreciation in local currency has to be born by bank himself. This increase in cost has left foreign currency account of no use, therefore, now bank prefers to accept deposits in local currency rather in foreign exchange. KHANUM BACHAT SCHEME: This is a type of term deposit, in this type of deposit an account is deposited and monthly payments of Rs. 1000/- are made by the account holder in this account for a minimum of 10 years. After the expiry of term, he receives his funds along with profit for the tenor. The distinctive feature of this product is that profit is calculated on monthly basis and charged to account on end of each half /ear. Then profit is also calculated on that amount of profit which is credited to the customer's account. So we can say that in this type of account there is a concept of accumulated profits on profit. This ends in getting a heavy return for the depositor at the end of tenor for his small savings. This product was actually introduced to promote saving habits in the people. Zakat and withholding taxes are deducted as per rules only at the time of maturity while making payment to the customer. HAJJ MUBARIK SCHEME: This is also very closely related with Khanum Bachat scheme. This was designed to help the persons who are willing to offer Hajj but are unable to save required funds. In this deposit schemes, 2 or 3 years agreement is entered with a customer. During this time he keeps on depositing monthly deposits and his account is charged with the accumulated profits calculated on 6 monthly basis. The scheme is so designed that total amount to be received at the end of this scheme comes equal to the anticipated cost of offering Hajj at the end of tenor. Zakat & withholding tax are deducted at the time of payment. MONTHLY KUSHALI SCHEME: This scheme is similar to CGC in the sense that an initial deposit is made in this case also but instead of lump sum payment at the end of the tenor, the person gets a monthly profit on his deposits. Under this scheme, the bank has guaranteed minimum rate of 1% per month but usually this rate is more than 1% per month. Zakat & withholding tax are calculated as per rules laid down by the government. PLS TERM DEPOSIT RECEIPTS (TDRS) This is a type of term deposit in which a receipt is issued for varying tenors ranging from 1 month to 5 years or more. These are in the form of receipts and profit on these receipts is paid biannually. These receipts are encashable after expiry of the period for which they were issued. Different profit rates are applied to different type of TDRs.

SPECIAL NOTICE DEPOSITS (SND): Under this deposit scheme, a deposit is received from the depositor under the condition that he will intimate the bank before a certain period in case of withdrawals. There are two types of SNDs, they are 7 days and 30 days notice deposits. The profit is paid on these deposits but it is nearly equivalent to saving account rate. FUNCTIONS 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. 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. PROCEDURE FOR OPENING: Procedure for opening of account is as follows: A person, who wants to open any kind of account, has to fill in a printed form which is provided by the bank, free of cost. Separate account opening forms are used for different types of accounts. Bank usually requires that new depositor must be introduced by some one. An introducer can be any person known to the bank but preferably it should be a customer of the bank. However, the manager can open the account by his own introduction. If the manager is satisfied, it will obtain the full signature of the customer- on the form and specimen signature card, makes the first deposit, and issues the cheque book. The following are given to the customers: Pay-in-slip is the proof of deposit. For every payment which is. to be deposited in the bank, the pay-in-slip is to be filled up. The object of this book is to provide the customer with the bank's acknowledgment for receipt of money to be credited this account. Cheque Book contains a number of cheques. It enables a customer to make withdrawal from this account or make payment of various parties by issue of cheque. Pass Book is a copy of the customers account as appears in the books of the bank. Balance is recorded in this book by the Clerk. NOTE: 1) In case of partnership account partnership deed should be attached. 2) In case of companies memorandum and article of association, certificate of incorporation, certificates for commencement of business, list of directors and board resolution for opening of account is also obtained from the customer. 3) Accounts of Trusts, Executors & Administrators can also be opened but with the prior approval of the Head Office. 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 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 hat drawer or holder of a cheque or draft may cross the instrument generally or specially. It further lies 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 COLLECTED 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.

Note: No charges are charged by the bank for this purpose. LEDGERS OF DEPOSIT DEPARTMENT: The following types of ledgers are concerned with deposit departments: 1. Saving Ledgers 2. Current Ledgers

3. Profit & Loss Sharing Ledgers 4. Fix Deposit Register 5. S.N.T.D. Register 6. Call deposit register 7. Cumulative deposit certificate register 8. Cash book 9. Daily profit and loss summary book 10. Officer spaceman signature book 11. Voucher register However, in computerized branches all these ledgers are no more there but only day books are maintained. The rest of the work is done on computers. ADVANCES DEPARTMENT Advances are the most important source of earning for the banks. MCB is also giving full attention towards this aspect and it is also obvious from the growing portfolio of advances and from very low delinquency rate. The credit portfolio of this institution is in a very much better shape than other financial institutions of Pakistan and the credit goes to the management and the staff who are concerned about the quantity and quality as well. 1) Loans 2) Cash Credits 3) Overdraft 1) LOANS: Loans are monetary assistance by a financial institution to a business, individual etc. The loans are granted by the bank in lump sum, so these types called fixed or demand loans. Interest is charged on the whole amount of a fixed loan. The borrower withdraws whole the amount of loan. This type of loan is normally granted against security of gold documents. In case of demand loans against gold or documents, a demand promissory note for the amount of loan is taken from the borrower loans are granted under; A) LOAN AGAINST GOLD: Under this type of loan, which is granted to the borrower the Head Cashier estimates the value of Gold or Gold ornaments through an agent (Gold smith) and keeps a margin of 40 to 50 percent. After the opening the gold loan account a token is given to the borrower, which is a bank receipt. On repayment of loan, the gold or ornaments held as security for it, together with the demand promissory note duly discharged is returned to the borrower and his receipt for the gold ornament taken in the demand loan ledger. This receipts states that he ornaments returned are complete and in order. Part delivery of ornaments is given against part payment of a loan but care is taken that the ornaments still in banks possession fully covers the balance of the loan outstanding. The interest gold loan is to be applied with quarterly.

B) LOAN AGAINST PLEDGED OF STOCK: In case of advancing such types of loans, the following precautions are dept in the mind: i) Stock pledged must be readily saleable ii) Products should be readily saleable iii) Advance should be within the borrows means REQUIREMENT FOR LOAN: For granting loan to any party or individual, the bank checks following particulars of the client: 1) Credibility 2) Feasibility Report By Credibility, bank Judges the credibility of the client by his past bank record, CBI report etc. it is very important in making decision about giving him loan. Feasibility report is on the running or proposed business of the client. The report enables the bank to judge the likely return of the business. 2) CASH CREDIT Cinder such cash account is opened in the name of the customer who borrows from the bank. Customer is granted a loan up to a certain limit, sanctioned by the head office, from which he can draw when he requires and interest is charged on the amount actually utilized by the customer. In order to avoid the danger of idle fund, the bank charges a certain rate of interest, even if the customer does not withdraw any amount. The rate charged by the bank on cash credit in 46 paisa per thousand on daily basis. The credit is usually given against the securities of goods or merchandize as follows: 1. ADVANCES AGAINST PLEDGE STOCK IN TRADE OR PRODUCTS When a cash is granted against the pledge of stock or product, cash credit form is taken, from the certain products or stock, but the actual pledge is created when the stock or finished product are placed under the bank's lock or the document of title are duly endorsed to the bank by the borrower. 2. HYPOTHECATION OF STOCK ON FINISHED PRODUCTS: The difference between pledge and hypothecation is that under a pledge the borrower's goods are placed in the bank's possession under own lock, whereas, under a hypothecation, they remain in the possession of the borrower or guarantor and are merely charged to the bank under documents signed by them. Even though the documents empower the bank to take possession of the goods hypothecated, but it is possible that the borrower may actually resist any attempt. 3.

I really enjoyed working with the staff of Ghalla Mandi Branch Renala Khurd and having a wish to be employee of MCB. 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 feel highly indebted to work in the Renal Khurd Branch on the request of the manager of that branch Ch. Abdul Sattar, because I learnt a lot in that branch. During my internship training in the MCB as I early mentioned that I have worked in different departments & seats and learnt the followings. UTILITY BILLS COLLECTION Muslim Commercial Bank Ltd. collects utility bills on behalf of WAPDA, Sui Gas Companies, and Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Limited by putting the stamp on the utility bills Paid, Date of payment, Signature of the officer receiving the utility bills. After receiving utility bills a list is made on the form which is called Bills scroll form. One copy of the scroll is with the bank for evidence whereas the original copy with the receipt of the bills is sent to the billing department of the respective corporation. The bank charge commission on the bills. OPENING NEW ACCOUNT BASICS During the span of mine internship in MCB I learned and observed a lot of 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.

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. Negligence in this informal preliminary investigation may result in serious consequences not only for the banker concerned directly but also for other bankers and the general public who may be affected indirectly. In Ladbroke & Co. V Todd (1914), the banker did not obtain introduction at the time of opening the account, and it was construed a negligence within Section 82 of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882. 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 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. HOW TO OPEN AN ACCOUNT (IN GENERAL) Before opening an account in MCB I observed that the following points must be considered in this regard. 1. Another account holder of the bank should properly introduce the new customer. 2. The account holder should sign the account opening form in the presence of bank officer and the signature is duly verified. 3. A copy of identity Card is required by Bank. 4. 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. 5. Each account shall be allotted a distinct number that is to be quoted in all correspondence with the bank relation to the account. 6. Minimum amount to open an account is required regarding the nature of account. 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 1. Title of Account 2. Full Name of Applicant 3. Occupation 4. Address 5. Telephone No.

6. Currency of account 7. Nature of Business 8. Introducers Name, Address & Signatures 9. Special instruction regarding the account 10. Initial Amount of the Deposit 11. Signature of the applicant PROCEDURE TO HONOUR A CHEQUE During my internship training in the Muslim Commercial Bank Limited, I observed and found Cheques are received for the following purposes. i) For Cash payments ii) For transfer(from one account to another account) iii) For Clearing I) FOR CASH PAYMENTS Cheques which are presented on Bank counter must be checked in the following way: 1) Date. 2) Signature of Drawer. 3) Signature of Payee. 4) Whether Bearer has cancelled. 5) Whether Payee account duly is there. If condition 4&5 exist then check the signatures of Drawer. 6) Match the figure and wordily amount of cheque. When all above matters are satisfied then come to the Token register and check: 1) Token number. 2) Cheque number. 3) Amount of cheque. 4) Particulars. Two stamps are put on cheque. a) Cash Payment (on the face of cheque). b) Stamp for Token (on the back of cheque). On stamp which is put for token their details are as follows: Token number. Time of giving token to client. Signature of token giver. Note: Payment is also made when cheques of same branch account is presented for transfer to other account in same ranch along with cheque for payment.

II) CHEQUE FOR TRANSFER: When cheques are presented to be sent for collection and drawn on bank situated within the city then there are three stamps to be put on face as well as on back of cheque. a) Crossing Stamp (face). b) Transfer Stamp (face). c) Bank Manager Stamp (back). Only in MCB branches. CHEQUES FOR CLEARING: There are two stamps put on each cheque, sent for clearing: a) Crossing Stamp. b) Manager Stamp. CHEQUES IN COLLECTION: When cheques received in clearing are intra city then these are controlled under CC. First of all, these cheques are recorded in day book then allotted number and then serial number. Then a performa is prepared in which Bank on whom was drawn, cheque number, amount, beneficiary name are recorded. After completing that performa cheque is posted along with performa. CLEARING Following information is entered in clearing register. a) Name of favoring party. b) Name of bank on whom drawn. c) Branch. d) Cheque number. e) Amount. Clearing is sent after entering in register. In clearing register future date and day is putted. Cheques and vouchers are then separated and Cheques are sent for clearing. Clearing credit vouchers are entered on clearing sheet. Such credits are balanced by giving debits to cheques received in clearing from other branches. At the beginning of the day clearing return sheet is received. Vouchers are made if 1. Clearing received is more than clearing delivered then Credit voucher. 2. Clearing delivered is more than clearing received then Credit voucher. On the same day, credit vouchers sent for clearing are entered on the sheet's credit side. Cheques are sent to NIFT after taking them on calculator, their total amount along with total number of instruments. A summary is prepared and sealed after noting the number of seal in summary. Telephonic Transfer DD- Demand Draft PO- Payment Order For TT, the account of beneficiary must be there in branch. DD is also prepared and beneficiary can get payment.

First of all, Performa is filled by purchasing party along with cheque or cash payment. When cheque is received it is first posted in computer section in order to check the balance of account. After posting the bank officer calculate tax if National Tax number is not there. i.e. Rs.100000 @0, 1% More than Rs.40000 @0.4% Commission and postage charges are also calculated. These are paid in cash or otherwise by cheque. ISSUANCE OF CHEQUE BOOK During my period of internship in MCB i observed that when a account is opened then a cheque is issued to thecustomer for drawing his money at per rules. Following procedure is adopting for the issuance of cheque. 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 contains ten, twenty five, fifty or hundred leaves. The cheque book also carries a requisition slip for the issuance of the new cheque book. This slip is duly filled and singed by the customer. The signature of the customer is verified by the bank and new cheque book is issued to the customer and serial numbers of the cheque are duly entered in the book of the bank. Along with the signature, person should also write his full name & address. Usually only one cheque book is issued at a time, however big concerns who need a number of cheque books at a time, may ask the bank to stock as number of cheque books in their name and to point their name on these cheque books. Bank debits the clients account for excise duty of Rs.2.50/- per cheque and keeps the cheque book ready for the customer, as on his advice. The officer keeps and maintains the cheque book register Cheque book inventory and cheque books issued are recorded in this register. The account number for which the cheque book is issued and the number of leaves are also recorded in this register when the cheque book issued an entry is passed in the cheque book issue register. RUPEE TRAVELLER CHEQUES: RTCS When RTCs are to be issued payment is received in cash or by cheque, tax @0.03% is charged id National Tax number is nor available.

Funds can be transferred in shape of pay orders, demand draft, mail telegram and telegraph transfer. Payments of fees of different organizations, fulfillment of tenders, and collection of funds are the main functions of remittance. Maximum part of general banking depends on this department. Issuance of different kinds of remittance: PAY ORDER Pay order is the property of person/company that has to take the benefit of the amount being pay ordered by the concerned person. Pay orders are made for the payment of fees, tender or issued for the payments of dealings. These are required for the proof of payments made between the bank and the customer in the favor of beneficiary. These are noted in printed block letters and yearly serial numbers are issued from computerized system. DEMAND DRAFT Demand drafts are made for the beneficiary for payments, funds etc, these are made for outstation branches of the concerned banks. An advice is also made for the confirmation of the draft send. These are also approved and safe way of sending amount to the beneficiary. These are also noted by computerized system and a serial number is issued from the computer system.

 04 | business internship report MAIL TRANSFER Mail Transfer is made with in the city for transfer of amount. An advice is also made for the confirmation of the draft send. These are also approved and safe way of sending amount to the beneficiary. These are also noted by computerized system and a serial number is issued from the computer system. TELEGRAPHIC TRANSFER Telegraph Transfer is telegram message for transferring the amount from one branch to other branch. A message advice and a confirmation advice both are made with TT numbers that are issued for TEST. TEST depends on two steps: 1. First TEST is on Day, Date and Code Number of branch. 2. Second TEST is on Currency, whether Pak rupees or foreign currency, amount and TT number issued from manual registers and confirmed from computerized system. PAYMENT OF PAY-ORDER AND DEMAND DRAFT Pay-Order and Demand Draft both could be paid in shape of physical payment of cash and in case transfer of amounts; the amount could be transferred in the beneficiary account. In case of physical payment authorized signature of beneficiary are taken for the proof of amount being paid to him and in case of transferring of amount authorized signature of the beneficiary are checked and verified for reducing risks. CANCELLATION OF PAY-ORDER AND DEMAND FRAFT Any type of Pay-Order / Demand Draft is cancelled by the permission and instructions made by the beneficiary. The customer could only cancel the pay-order/demand draft as the verified signatures of beneficiary are present on the advice. VOUCHERS Vouchers are made for records and they should be completed in all respects, the amount, date, its head, particulars, amount in words, authorized signatures and contra advice or voucher should be present. Vouchers are advice either debit or credit slips. They are contra of each other. If any voucher of debit is passed its contra credit voucher should also be passed for the balancing of accounts, their respective sheets. 05 | business internship report INWARD CLEARING

It depends on those checks that are cleared inter branch and with in the city. As the concerned branch receive any type of clearing check first of all physical checking is taken place. For clearing procedure there should be two days margin. These cheques have their vouchers and the amount of the cheque and voucher should be identical. Than these cheques are stamped and noted on receiving sheet as well as feed in to the computerized system. OUTWARD CLEANING It depends on those cheques that are cleared out side the city. For outward clearing cheques are send because the home branch has there accounts but checks are of other banks. Contras of these cheques are vouchers that are recordrd in the home branch. TOKEN Token is the process of different steps of checking of the cheque: 1. PHYSICALLY CHECKING First of all the cheque is physically checked. 2. Date It should not be advanced of the latest date, date should be limited to only past six months. 3. AMOUNT Amount in which words and figures should be written in clear writing. Any kind of over writing and cutting should be prevented. Otherwise it would not be passed and returned to the customer. 4. PAYEES / BEARER CHEQUES If the cheques are payees accounts head or they have marked bearer then these cheques are not labeled token. 5. VERIFICATIION OF SIGNATURES Signatures are checked as well as verified. In case of other representative of the account holder brings the cheque then two signatures of that person are taken. 6. STAMPS After physical checking of the cheques they are stamped. ISSUANCE OF CHEQUE BOOKS Any account holder that has opened the account he/she could credit his/her account and for this purpose there should be a cheque book, so he/she could be able to credit the needed amount whatever he/she wishes. For the issuance of the cheque book a person is advised to fill a requisite slip with his/her full names and the account number with two verified signatures. These signatures are checked and then another requisite slip prepared by the bank staff send to the NIFT, and it issues the printed cheque books after completion of the procedure in two or three days. 06 | business internship report

Account holder can take it by singing on the issuance register or if the absence of the account holder another person could also take the cheque book only if he/she has authorized signature of the account holder. When the cheque books are issued they are feed in the computer system from the requisite slip so when the cheques are given for the credit/transfer of amount they could checked. In this way neither the cheques could be repeated nor could the invalid cheques be claimed. ISSUANCE OF ATM CARDS Head office issues ATM (Auto Teller Machine) cards with their PIN (Personal Identification Number) codes and when the customer claims for their ATM card they are checked from the list that is also issued from the head office, and the claim is checked from the list and if the name is found than the cards are issued by taking a signature and their PIN codes are given to them by taking signatures on their ATM card forms. The ATM card has been activated by the number provided at or with the specific card. CANCELLATION OF ATM CARDS The Cancellation of ATM Cards becomes necessary in the following conditions: If folded or damaged Stolen PIN code missed or forgotten Card captured by the machine and expired If requested by the customer The cancellation or inactivity of the card is being processed by the request or instructions provided from the customer. SALE OF RTC The selling of the RTC has been described in step wise as follow: In this step the bank initially seeks the information whether the person is going to purchase the RTCs on cash or on account basis. If the transaction is based on account then initially the cheque has been cleared than if the amount is sufficient than RTC has been issued after deducting after the amount from the account. If the amount of RTC is more than Rs. 25000 than tax has levied by 0.3% in case of absence of the tax deduction form. After this the bank handed over a form for RTC sale dully filled by the concerned person and after this RTC number has been noted on the form as well as their amount and quantity. After this we note down the sold RTC in the concerned register. MCB Pak rupee travelers cheques the fastest way to carry cash for high value cash transactions.

MCB limited has implemented a SYMBOL system which promises the efficiency growth of the bank. MIS and computerization of branches has enhanced the efficiency of the bank. Delegation of authority, wide branch network with ATM installation and wide participation of employees in the decision making provides the bank a competitive edge. The bank provides a conducive environment for career growth. The bank pays a too low rate of interest on deposits which in unattractive for its customers. There are too lengthy formalities and procedures involved in mortgage of properties offered as collateral to the bank. The MCB bank made substation progress, recording strong growth in revenues and earnings. The main derives were increase in outreach, strengthened human resources. Including changes at the senior management level, enhanced product portfolios, improved control and vigilant credit risk management. Our primary focus was our customers and we worked diligently through the year to increase satisfaction and

loyalty as the needs and expectation of our diversified base of customers continued to expand. A key initiative aimed at including a segment based approach to the overall business was the segregation of the retail banking group into commercial and consumer banking groups. This expected to help the MCB bank in providing customer centric solution in a more group generated healthy deposit and strengthened its SME lending. 24 | business internship report 1. Training can be provided with job rotations so each of the employees is capable of doing others work in case of emergency, this will ensure no delays are met. 2. As MCB earning a lot of profit stock options should be given to every employee. 3. Workers need more computer training. 4. MCB need to invest more in technology and bring all banking procedures up-to-date. 5. They should implement advance technology and make it one window shopping or one window service where each teller is capable of handling every transaction for example payments, deposits, transfers, bill payments, foreign exchange, ATM card issue and opening of new account. This will make MCB more proficient in customer service. 6. ATM network needs to be updated more to handle transfers, deposits, bill payments and print statements. This will free up a lot staff time.
