Introduction
The Chartered Bank started operating in Bangladesh in 1948, opening a branch in
Chittagong. The branch was opened mainly to facilitate the post-war reestablishment and
expansion of South and Southeast Asia. The Chartered Bank opened another branch in Dhaka in
1966, where it is still headquartered. After the merger of the Chartered Bank with the Standard
Bank in 1969, the Standard Chartered Bank took up a program of expansion. It increasingly
invested in people; technology and premises as its business grew in relation to the country’s
economy.
The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Framework defines an asset as
follows: “An asset is a resource controlled by the enterprise as a result of past events and from
which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the enterprise.” The assets of a bank are
the outstanding loans of their customers. Additionally, the bank would probably have
investments of its own that would be assets to the bank, as well as the normal assets of property,
fixtures and equipment.
In a time of default on bank loans, the bank takes ownership of the property that was
financed and endeavors to sell this collateral to repay the borrowed amount. Thus, at any given
time there are probably assets of this type on the books.
IFRS framework defines a liability as follows: “A present obligation of the entity arising
from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of
resources embodying economic benefits.” The liabilities of a bank are the customer checking,
saving or investment account deposits. Additionally, normal liabilities such as the bank’s own
loans payable or other similar obligations would be liabilities, just as they are in any other
business.
