I did the following jobs in SCB under consumer Banking:

certificate-seeing account existing information or taking documents from customer. It is charged from his account. We dont mention the word guarding us. NB: no statement or certificate would be delivered If minimum balance of the account below 230 Solvent. It is completely restricted. We may add another statements according to customer instruction after safe
3/D: Account services: 3/D-1: Address change: customers some time want to change mailing and permanent
address. They fill up a form and give supporting documents for his address (in case of permanent address change). Supporting documents may be DESA, WASA, PHONE bill copy etc This is free of cost.
3/D-2: Signatory change (delegation of authority): some time customer wants to add new

Time Study:
TYPES Average service time : Minimum Maximum Average waiting time: Minimum Maximum Average no: of customer serve TIME 1.72 minutes 1.45 minutes 2.04 minutes 9.79 minutes 7.21 minutes 11.43 minutes 792
I observe that around 12-15 minutes requires serving a loan customer. At that time PFC can not concentrate to others. Because customer want to know different loan interest, installment tenor process of sanction etc. some customer wait to talk the specific PFC. at that time he \she booked chairs thats makes other standing. More over a normal customer with general queries can solve the problem through call centre
Motion Study:
The layout of the bank can be changed to serve the customers in the best way. Customers sometimes found roaming here and there in the bank because they do not have the proper instruction as to where he/she shall be served and how he /she will be served. That is why a lot of time spends for a single customer by this time 2 or 3 customers could be served. So each and every employee of the bank should know their assigned task as well as they should know the overall banking solution so that they can serve / assist the customer in the spot. But the employee should bear in mind that he/she have to do his assigned job first. Figure shows quick customer service at the right way possible.

Details of Loans & Advances
Cash Line
30
Cash Line is a fully secured lending facility. It is intended to meet the emergency cash needs of the customer. The customers money is tied-up in investments but he needs cash now. Rather than pulling out his investment, he can take a Cash Line and meet his immediate need. To this end, there are 2 basic types of Cash Line: a) Overdraft b) Fixed Loan Meaning of fully cash-secured Fully cash secured means that customers can get this facility by pledging/ liening a security that is either cash or can be very easily converted to cash. The amount of the loan is at best, can be equal to the value of the security. securities that can be easily converted to cash The securities that SCB considers can be easily encased are Government issued security bonds, ICB units, Fixed Deposit Accounts of SCB. How much cash security is required to get this Loan? Since this is a fully cash secured facility, security is more that the loan amounts. Generally, 80% to 90% of the security present value is approved as loan. Loan amount determined by the present value of the security, not face value.
LTV Ratio LTV means Loan-to-Value. Value. Other words the ratio between the loan amount and the value of the security deposited. The value here is the present value. Generally, LTV ratio is
31
in the range of. 8 to. 9 or 80% to 90% of the present value of security. Rarely, LTV ratio of more than 90% is given as loan. For that, Head of Credit & Collections and Head of Consumer Bankings approval is required.
32
House renovations Purchase of Personal Computers Marriages in the family Purchase of refrigerators Advance rental payments Purchase of furniture Trips abroad Office renovations Hospitalization or other emergency medical needs Higher professional or tertiary education/ professional training Purchase of office equipment/ accessories Purchase of miscellaneous household appliances Note: Cash line can be taken for reasons that are not mentioned above, as long as it is not an illegal activity.
Third Party Security Third Party security is security in a persons name that is not the applicant. Third party securities are acceptable to the bank. Formalities in case of 3-rd party security Third party s signature against the specimen attached to the original instrument is to verified Third party instrument to be sent to the issuing office for verification and written confirmation on lien marking and encashment of instrument. Third party s confirmation to be obtained with regard to lien marking and authority for encashment of securities. Loans repayment procedure Cash line Fixed Loan: EMI & Bullet Payments Customers will repay the loan by Monthly Installments for Cash Line Fixed Loan. For Bullet Payment arrangements, customers a/c holders and SCB non-a/c holders. Customers with A/c with SCB: They can put a standing order in their a/c that will automatically take the EMI every month. The benefit of Standing order is, that it can be set for any date of the month.
34
Customers with no prior A/c with SCB: They can give Post Dated Cheques (PDC)s for the entire loan tenure. The PDC s will be dated 1st, 8th 15th or 26th of each month Customer will have to choose one date among the four for all ODC s How will the Customers repay the Loans? Cash Line OD: Cash Line OD is a utilization-based product. Interest is based on utilization. Interest is charged daily on the utilization. At the end of the quarter the accred interest will hit the collection account. Since all Cash Line OD customers are SCB account holders, a standing order will be in place on the transaction a/c, which will automatically transfer the interest amount to collection account. penalties for missing an installment The penalty for missing an installment is that an additional 24% penal interest will be charged on the outstanding amount. This interest will be charged daily on the outstanding amount till the customer pays the outstanding. Cash Line ODs limit can be enhanced/ decreased Yes, Cash Line OD limit can be enhanced or decreased. Limit can be enhanced Either by submitting more security. Applying to the Bank saying that the present value of security has increased, therefore his limit can be enhanced. Limit can be decreased by: By withdrawing or en cashing security. Documents required at the time of loan approval During loan approval the documents required are 6-months latest account statement. The security to be pledged must also be with the application papers. In case the loan is over TK. 5lac, a valid identification is required.
Documents required at the time of loan disbursement The documents that must bear customers signature are: Demand Promissory Note
35
Letter of Continuation Undated Letter(authorizing the bank to encash security at its discretion) A dated letter authorizing the bank to put date on the undated letter. Letter of Lien & Set-off over Deposit a/c (in case security is FDR). Original receipt of FDR signed & surrendered by customer. Letter of Guarantee (in case security is in 3 rd partys name) Filled in Banking Arrangement Letter. Cross Collectivization
Cross Collectivization means using the same security for tow or more lending facility. Suppose some one has lac worth of 3 MSP. He takes Flexi Loan pledging 3lac of that 3 MSP as collateral. With the remaining 7 lac he took a Cash Line of TK 6.3 lac o. So, this security of 10 lac is used for a Cash Line and a Flexi Loan. Thus the security Is said to be cross collaterized or simple said Crossed In a more complex scenario, a year later, the present value of the security has increased (interest) and by paying his installments he has reduced the outstanding of both facilities. This security required to cover this reduced outstanding is less than what it was a year ago. So now, the customer can apply for another facility with the freed-up security.
Example of charge documents? Demand Promissory Note, Letter of Continuation Letter of Lien and Set-Over Deposit, Letter of Hypothecation these documents are called charge documents. Why are these documents important? Incase the customer defaults on his installment payments, and then these documents will help us establish our right in court to liquidate his loan by encashing customers security. Only the customer can sign on these documents. Bank employees or representatives must not sign or stamp a seal on these pages Methods of verifying signature of applicant
36
The best way to verify signature is to stamp a Signature Verification seal on the customers signature on the inside front cover of the booklet. The Person doing the verification must also give his full signature and stamp his/her official seal. In this way, the signature there becomes verified and could be used as reference for all other customer signatures throughout the application form.
If the signature on the security differ from the signature on the application form
If this happens then the loan can still be disbursed, but what is done here is that a Personal guarantee is taken. In that guarantee the applicant signing with the signature on the security is virtually guaranteeing the application form signature. The two Signatures are tow separate entities, one standing in guarantee for the other.
personal loan
It is a loan offered to individuals for some given purposes and is to be repaid by equal monthly installments. No security is needed for this loan. The monthly installment is called EMI.
37
Meaning of EMI
EMI or Equated Monthly Installment is the amount a customer has to pay every month to pay back that loan. (Click the underlined words for details of Personal Loan EMI) Persons eligible to get personal Loan
Salaried employees of MNCs, Large local corporate bodies, NGOs, International aid agencies, UN bodies, Airlines. Government employees, businessmen and selfemployed professionals can also get this loan. Since no security is taken, the income of the applicant is given prime consideration. Therefore, based on employment applicants are divided into segments. Different type of segments
Segment 1: Executives of listed local corporate bodies and multinationals which have a corporate relationship with us, have been maintaining their salary A/C with us and have a history of EOSB (End-of-Service-Benefit) payment of their employees through SCB accounts. Example: Executives of Lever Brothers, British American Tobacco Company, Novartis etc. Segments 2: Executives of Supra Nationals sector who have their salary A/C with us. Example: Executives of ILO, World Bank, ADB and other UN agencies. Segment 3: this segment is further divided into 3 categories. Category 1: Employees of corporate bodies, Educational Institutes, NGO who have salary A/C with us only. Category 2: Employees of corporate bodies, Educational Institutes, NGO who are paid salary through A/C with other banks. Category 3: Employees of corporate bodies, Educational Institutes, NGO who are paid salary in cash. Category 4: Self-employed professionals and businessmen.
38
Remember, no security is taken for this loan. The bank considers the salary of the applicants as security. So we segregate the applicants based on their salary and Benefit relationship with us. That is why those whose employers have a corporate relationship with us, they get their salary through SCB and their employer keeps their pension and other staff benefit fund with us are in one segment. We feel that we can assess their income correctly and in case of default are in a good place to collect the remaining amount. UN agencies, ILO, ADB World Bank staffs are considered safe and reliable so they are in another segment. All other are in segment-3. Segment-3 is considered more risky since it contains businessmen and executives who do not get their salary through us or in cash. As you will read through this module, you will learn that since we do not take any security, monthly income becomes very important in giving this loan. Segmentation is done based on their salary and pension with or without us and who their employer is. SCB reluctant to give Personal Loan to the followings. People working in garments, restaurants, car showrooms, trading/ indenting firms, lawyer. Defense Officials. purposes of getting a Personal Loan The purposes for which Flexi Loan can be availed are: House renovation Purchase of miscellaneous household appliances. Marriages in the family. Advance rental payments. Hospitalization or other emergency medical needs. Trips abroad. Higher professional or tertiary education/professional training. Owners of sole proprietorships can apply in their personal name not in their company name. They can take the loan to buy office furniture and machinery but not for working capital and heavy industrial machinery.
Remember: Purpose of the loan must be clearly written in the specified space Most Important: The DB ratio of the applicant must support the loan amount. Differences in loan for the different segments
39

Now, he wants Flexi Loan of Tk. 8.25 lac for 4 years. His DB ratio will be: (All EMIs +3% of credit card limit) / Net Monthly income His EMI for new Flexi loan will be: 29.24 x 825 = 24,123 per DB ratio = (3,362 + 24,123 + 3,000 + 6000) / (73,000 + 6,000) = (36,485 / 79,000) = 0.46 or 46% is within his DB ratio. So he will get the Loan.
Meaning of EMI
EMI or Equated Monthly Installment is the equal amount a customer has to pay every month to set off that loan. Interest rate 14% 15% 16% 18% 12 Months 89.79 90.18 90.73 91.68 EMI table for Flexi-loan 24 Months 36 Months 48.01 34.10 48.40 34.58 48.96 35.06 49.93 36.02 48 Months 27.25 27.24 28.24 29.24 60 Months 23.19 23.70 24.21 25.25
How will you get the actual EMI amount from this table: Select the tenor (months) and the interest rate. Then multiply the loan amount in thousands with the corresponding factor and you will have the EMI for that tenor and that interest rate. For example: Mr, Rizvi, a businessman, wants to take a Flexi loan of Tk. 20 lac by providing 35% readily encashable / cash security. He wants to repay the loan in 3 years. So his tenor will be 36 months, interest rate will be 18%and the corresponding factor will be 36.02.That will be multiplied by 2000, since 20 lac means 2000 thousand. Therefore, his EMI will be: 36.02 x 2000 = 72,040. Similarly, someone wanting a 12 lac Taka loan by providing 50% readily encashable / cash security for 2 years would have an EMI of: 1200 x 48.96 = 58,752 Note: EMI must be within the Debt- Burden Ratio. You have the option to advice the customer to take a lower amount of loan if the EMI does not support his DB ratio.

Some eye catcher ratio: From the above analysis it is praiseworthy that ROI has increased by about 13% and also ROA by 1.21%.

Average interest on loan as well as interest expense has also increased.

DSE need adequate training and information about day to day change in different requirements. 7. It is recommended that branch performance should not hit by DSE account opening return Recommendations for Loans services: 1. A good linkage is essential between front office & back office. Because if a Loan application decline PFC faces customer queries and dissatisfaction. 2. To encourage loan repayment, Loan closing fee and Early settlement fee need to reconstruct. Because customer claim against these. 3. Inspect the reasons of great variation between Loan application and approved that shown in the graphical presentation on page . Also instruct the person how to clarify a loan application. 4 Verification process needs to improve. Because customer are not willing to give confidential information to unknown. In this situation back office can contact to PFC or BSE/DSE to give more information not declining the application immediately. 5. SCB can offer different incentives to reach loan target such as a. Concession interest rate. b. Offer to adjust interest & principal money for classified loan if a lump sum amount is paid. c. Can arrange SCB Loan week d. Relaxing some requirements of loan that is far from target.
