Preface:
Master in Business Administration is an practical experience that is an important
part to give students an opportunity to have experience of practical field. Unless the
students experience the novelty of practical work, their knowledge of what they
study in theoretical courses remains incomplete. The most important point in an
Internship Program is that the student should spend their time in a true manner and
with the spirit to learn practical orientation of theoretical study framework.
This report is on my experience at National Bank of Pakistan. In this report I have
tried my best to give details about the Bank’s working and the functions of different
departments of the bank.

Executive Summary
National Bank of Pakistan is a government Bank. National Bank of Pakistan was established on
November 9, 1949 under the National Bank of Pakistan Ordinance, 1949 in order to cope with the
crisis conditions which were developed after trade deadlock with India and devaluation of Indian
Rupee in 1949. The nature of responsibilities of the Bank is different and unique from other
banks/financial institutions. The Bank acts as the agent to the State Bank of Pakistan for handling
Provincial/Federal Government Receipts and Payments on their behalf. The Bank has also played
an important role in financing the country’s growing trade, which has expanded through the years
as diversification took place. Its head office is in Karachi. It has over 1256 branches all over in
Pakistan.
The main purpose to done internship in NBP is to understand that how any organization deal with
their customers and how they serve in banking sector of Pakistan. During my MBA I learn a lot
but never got practical experience to work in any organization. And it is also a compulsory part of
my education (MBA) to get practical experience. So my department IBF gave me this opportunity
to avail practical experience. Specially Sir Mustabsar that are encourage me everytime. And I had
avail a chance to done my internship in NBP Main Branch.
During my eight week’s internship I learn some personal practical experience of professional life.
I work in different departments of NBP such as: credit department, remittance department,
operation department, deposit department, government sector, foreign department, advance salary
department. So in my internship report I discuss the NBP as a whole. But as per my area of
specialization is HRM so my report is basically the analysis of the employees position and
performance, structure of HR department, functions of HR department, HR planning &
forecasting, Employees recruitment & selection, Training & development, performance appraisal,
Labor management relations, SWOT Analysis, Conclusion, Recommendations. During working
with NBP employees it was a great experience for me to work in NBP and it was a great
opportunity of professional insight which helps me in future.

opinion.
There are two unions that are working in the NBP:

2. Officer Federation (for salary packages fought in Head office)

45
Critical Analysis:
During my internship, my main goal was to provide my knowledge (theory),
various practical situations. This report is an essential part of the internship, as this
will help to better understand the working relationship between the working of bank
and what is written in books. The theory books written cases, not implemented as
it is.
 During my internship in National Bank of Pakistan I have observed that bank is
way behind in adopting the computerized system. Most of the staff members in
NBP are not familiar with the computer. Specially in Government department, staff
employees doing manual working there is less working on computer. Only 1-2
Personal Computers are keep in Government department.
 Customers focus is change in every department. In credit department, the customer
who have a reference the officer more focus on them. In Remittance or Cashier side
the customer focus are less. There are often seems to be bargaining among the
customers and the staff of NBP. The behavior of peons are very bad with customers.
 Every employee has their own PC but there systems are very slow and oftenly
systems are not working so that customers face difficulty and the employees are sit
free.
 In some departments the manual working are more than computerized working and
there is also lack of staff. In credit department, in the Gold Loan section only one
officer work. Their manual working is very much so that there is a need of other
employee or assistant which help him in their work. The burden of work is more so
that he take more work with internees. It so much time taking to do manual working.
 The 2nd
and 3rd
floor area is too much better and too much clean but the basement
area or government sector area there is no proper system of cleanliness. Employees
are old age and they smoking too much that makes the environment more dirty.
 There is a proper dress code for employees in NBP but every employee wear dress
according to their choice. Only few employees follow the dress code.
 The culture of NBP totally based on reference. Discipline are there in some
departments. The permanent employees are satisfied but the contract-base
employees are less satisfied.
 During the utility bills and pension dates law and order situation becomes worst
due to less control.

47
SWOT Analysis:
Strength:
 NBP works as an agent of State Bank of Pakistan because
SBP have not its own branches so that NBP works for SBP.
As well as NBP is a custodian of government capital and
government business owner and as well as custodian of
public money.
 NBP is old and sound financial institution among other
banks and high profitability and it is the lender of
government agencies.
 NBP is the first bank which has huge operational network
all over the Pakistan as well as abroad.
 NBP launch many products and services to their customer
so NBP try to improved the quality of life of our customer.
 Employees of NBP are strict follow the rules and
regulations impose by the bank. In this way the output of
the bank is enhances.
Weaknesses:
 Employees of the bank know that their job is secure so their behavior with customer is not
professional. NBP Employees rudely behave with customers and as well as with each other.
 Lack of computerized network which cause the more time consume, energy and mental
stress in rush face the employee. The bank lacks the modern equipment, outdated systems
and procedures.
 Being Govt. bank political pressure affects the negative way and provides the loan to the
customer under pressure which creates the negative affect on bank employee.
 The promotion and bonuses are powered by senior favouritism will and decision which
affect the employee’s performance negatively. That is why, Condition of Bank branches is
very poor and service to the clients is slow.
 Lack of modern financial/banking product, the bank falls far behind when innovative and
new schemes are considered. There are no proper system for advertisement & marketing
of products. Lack of IT infrastructure and sometimes IT system is hanged so bank could
not provide the information to their customer on time.
 Resistance to change and decision making process are slow.

48
Opportunities:
 N.B.P more trustable due to government bank so it has opportunity to improve itself and
increase market share among other banks.
 Now a days banking system is growing rapidly so N.B.P have opportunities to apply
advance standard and more contribute into the market.
 Now a day economic and business activities are increasing, N.B.P play roll in trade and
commerce for the benefit of their customer. N.B.P has vast opportunity to introduce new
products and services because its branches spread all over the Pakistan and it has large
number of customer.
 Now a day, a world becomes a global village due to advancement of technology
particularly in computer field. So N.B.P introduce new technology to provide the good
service of their customer.
 Develop organize the aggressive marketing plan for promotion the bank and its products.
Can lunch a marketing strategy and offer new and innovative products to capture the
business from other banks.
Threats:
 Number of commercial bank are opened, operating their business and provide same
facilities and product to the customer which provide N.B.P so It is threat for N.B.P.
 Competition with foreign bank because they offer many service to their customer are totally
free or minimum prices.
 Political influence is also threat for N.B.P because it is a government bank and political
pressure affects the performance of it.
 Customer satisfaction is very important for business but in N.B.P there are no proper
systems to remove the customer complaints for its satisfaction.
 N.B.P receive high interest rate when other banks offer lower interest rates. Interest rates
offered by N.B.P like interest on loan, extra higher service charges.

Conclusion:
After completing my internship in National Bank of Pakistan my conclusion is that:
 Administration cost is very high in National Bank of Pakistan.
 There is lack of new technologies.
 Promotions seems to be late due to official arrangements.
 Staff of NBP is very cooperative with internees.
 NBP culture is reference based.
 All employees are gave their best to NBP.
 There is lack of staff in some department.
 There is a great problem of system error. When system error is occur all the work
has been stopped.
 The building of NBP of main branch is very beautifully made.
 I got great experience by working in NBP.
My Learning:
My learning of internship is that:
 Practical knowledge is totally different from bookish knowledge.
 The staff behavior should be soft with customers.
 Some customers are only come to NBP for time wasting and they sit free due to
system error whole day in the bank.

have to face difficulties but when we work with patience and more sincerity then
we gain success. There is need to be live balanced then we gain our objectives and
live happy and calm life.

Recommendations:
1. National Bank of Pakistan need to adjust itself with the rapid changes appearing in
the market as other banks are adopting the changes as they occur. National Bank
must make efforts towards modern banking.
2. The bank should improve the quality of training of its employees and the integrity,
controls and efficiency of its systems, processing and financial reporting.
3. Management of NBP must contribute their part to train their staff so that they focus
on customers about facilitating with good manner.
4. Procedure of taking services from the NBP need to be simpler instead of lengthy
procedure.
5. NBP, being the only lending arm to the government for public sector development
should design, develop and deliver product and services for economic growth.
6. The NBP should adopt modern banking tools and techniques. Quality leadership,
clear vision, investment in IT infrastructure and human resource development.
7. The bank should develop software for pension disbursement.
8. The NBP should provide support to the Micro, Small and Medium enterprises so
that reduce the unemployment and helping to create a more equitable distribution
of wealth.
