3. MY LEARNING’S
Standing on the second floor in my home, I heard the good news of me having a six week
opportunity to interact with a world class bank. All these six weeks were full of events, full of
learning and most importantly full of professional working. Here 'professional' regards in all
from clerical to managerial work. In these six weeks period, the best thing to me was the
authority and dependency of customers upon me, when they come with a hope that I'm there to
guide them. Knowing all is not learning, the real learning is to convey right. I tried to learn real,
see real UBL, and tried to comprehend the difference between what we look from outside and
what is going on inside.
UBL is full of experienced and professional traditional bankers. As it perfectly suit the
environment we are operating in, you attitude has helped UBL in capturing masses. In the private
sector, no doubt its a fast growing bank, but here's something that's still unrealistic to the policy
makers. The line of unsatisfied customers is increasing, not because we are not serving well, it's
because customers are not understanding the YOU attitude right. Every customer wants to make
sure his work is done at the first convenience, but they are not concerned about the responsibility
with which every employee is workingBack to my real learning’s in my six week internship, I
worked in customer service department, as well as in clearing department. Because of some work
load, I was unable to learn much about other cash and accounting department. Here is my
countdown learning of six weeks.
3.1 Account Opening:
Penning down information and keying it into the system does seem a simple and tedious
job but it is not. My initial five days at customer service department was the liveliest experience
of my internship. Though physically I was there just to assist the account opening officer, but it
turned
31. 24
Out to be much more for me. That is when I first actually imitated as a presenter of UBL
to customers, when to many people, I'm their hope.
UBL offers a variety of options for anyone; to everyone. You are an investor, regular
businessman, middle man, salaried person or a house wife; UBL serve you in every way it can
through its commendable and reliable services, because at UBL, YOU come first.
Working at Customer Service Department, I did counter with different types of Customer
and opened their accounts under the supervision of the officer. When you have the sole
responsibility to open the accounts, it's always very important to understand the needs of your
customer. Understanding the psyche of customer is very important. Until and unless you're
completely satisfied that the customer has genuine reason and need to open the account, don't do
so.
Account Opening Form:
In all the documentation within the bank, clearness and tidiness are the major features.
Over writing and cutting should always be avoided as it may lead to any misinterpretation.
Account Opening Form is the most important documentation when a customer walks in for
commercial banking and wants to develop a relationship with us.
In AOF, all the necessary information should be completely scrutinized before the
customer walks back. Now let’s look at some of the salient requirements of AOF and their
importance.
Currency and Type of Account
It offers you all the eight different types of accounts mentioned before. First understand
why the customer is here and what type of account suits him a lot. Scale down all the options
suiting his investment or requirement and help him choose what is best for him. Outline all the
salient features of that particular account to him and make him tick the best box. Mark the
currency box if the customer wishes to deposit in currency, in case, other than PKR.

beneficiary and what the approximate value of transaction per month is.
36. 29
3.2 Clearing of Cheques:
3.2.1 Outward Clearing:
My experience at C.C S. Town branch started from the clearing department. Right in the
morning cheques collected from the drop box simply flood over my table. According to all I
learnt through listening, viewing and questioning is summarized below.
3.2.2 Documentation of Consumer Cheques:
All the cheques collected are first categorized into
Credit Cards
Auto Loans
Personal Loans
Cash Line
Verified cheques are then validated before being documented into the drop box collection
sheet for our daily drop box collections record. To anticipate the approval of cheques, we need to
validate some important specifications of all the cheques. They are:
Date: Cheque should not be post dated or out of date.
Figures: Amount in words and figures should match.
Signature: Drawers signature must be clear.
Intercity: Cheques must not be of other cities. Intercity clearing cheques
for consumer departments are not entertained
Payee’s Name: Payee’s name should be written, and endorsement should
be as per the beneficiary of the cheque.
There should be no over writing in everything penned.
37. 30
All the filtered cheques are then entered into the collection sheet in which following
information is entered.
Cheque No.
Name of bank
Name of Customer
Loan No.
Amount
Document No.
All the documented consumer cheques are then posted into the system. Which I can not
learn due to there security reasons.
3.2.3 Cleared Cheques:
Now the next day when clearing is confirmed by NIFT, respected accounts are debited.
We go into the banking option and in transfer, we debit all the respected accounts. Same is the
case with intercity and OBC cheques.
In documentation, debit and credit vouchers are made, which show total amount of
clearing as per day.
3.2.4 Returned Cheques:
All the cheques which are returned, due to any reason, are then reversed. They are
debited back in the clearing schedule. All the returned cheques are documented in the cheque
return registers and all the account holders of returned cheques are charged with service penalty.
*All the vouchers are signed by the designated officer and all the entries over 50,000 are
supervised.

5. RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis is very helpful to the management of the organization as well as for the
investors and creditors. Investors keep an eye on the bank’s financial statement and make
decisions whether to invest funds in that bank or not. Similarly a creditor also analysis the
financial statements and makes decisions whether to grant loan or not.
Financial statements for the last three years from 2011 to 2013 are given above:
5.1. Liquidity Ratios:
Liquidity ratios means to measure short term solvency of the company. Ability of the
company to pay off its short term debt. Following ratios are calculated in order to measure the
short term solvency of the company
Current Ratio
Acid Test Ratio
Working Capital
5.1.1Current Ratio:
Current Assets: Cash and balances with treasury and other banks + lending to financial
institutions + Investment + Advances
Current Liabilities: Deposits & other Accounts + Borrowings from financial institutions

Interpretation:
As the current ratio in the year 2009 is 1.12, and in the year 2013 it is 1.13. This shows
the constant increase in the current assets and liability of the United Bank. The current ratio of
1.0 is considered acceptable for a public utility.
Acid test Ratio of the Allied Bank can’t be calculated because inventory is required, so
bank is a service organization.

Interpretation:
Bank’s Debt ratio in the years 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 is 90.01%, 90.22%,
84.92%, 85.32% and 85.97%. Debt Ratio indicates that bank’s Debt is on higher side in all the
five years as compare to its assets which indicates that the bank is highly levered and its fixed
financial cost is much higher which may decrease the operating profit of the company with the
result of decrease in earnings per share.

= 8.69
804,296 / 92,239
= 8.72
908,825 / 100,914
= 9.01
Graphical Representation
Interpretation:
United Bank Limited in all the five years debt ratio is 9.16, 9.23, 8.69, 8.72 and 9.01
respectively which indicates that the creditors were providing Rs.9.16, Rs. 9.23, Rs.8.69,
Rs,8.72, and Rs.9.01 respectively each year of financing for each Rs.100 being provided by
shareholders. Debt portion in the total financing is much higher, that means lower the level of the
bank financing that is being provided by the shareholders.

48.69% interest, Best Way group and Abu Dubai group with 25.50% of interest each.
Others are GOP, NBP Trustee Department, State Life Insurance Corporation etc.
60. 53
The bank is run by highly professional recruited from and trained by foreign banks like
City Bank.
6.2 WEAKNESSES:
Due to risks such as political, economic and legal etc the bank has suffered losses the
main reason was that of piling up of large amount of unrecoverable loans and debts
which have adversely affected the image of the UBL.
Accumulated losses pushed the bank to cut down its promotional activities in order to
reduce expenses for last few years.
During the nationalization life span of the bank political lords used influence in bank
business and selection of employee at each level and thus adversely affected the bank’s
efficiency and effectiveness.
Administrative expenses are 51% of the mark up revenue.
Promotions are carried out on annual basis ignoring the importance of capabilities and
performance outputs.
The bank has large number of employees who are simple graduates with no banking
knowledge.
Ineffective system of recruiting and selection.
Lengthy credit processing and documentation procedures.
Unsatisfactory working conditions.
6.3 OPPERTUNITIES:
Growing policies of the GOP on business and economic sectors provide UBL an
opportunity to efficiently meet with the business people requirements of instant cash
facilities e.g. the government intentions of developing housing and agriculture sectors.
The efficiency of stock market and sound exchange reserve level is providing a good
opportunity for effective investment decisions.
61. 54
Foreign remittances are another area as present worldwide control systems over transfer
of currencies through illegal channels has facilitated the area for the banks.
Reconstruction of Afghanistan is a golden opportunity where the bank can effectively
participate.
Interest of businesses in leasing facilities provides a healthy opportunity for banks.
There is a large pool of unemployed MBAs who can be hired to achieve professionalism
on its organizational culture.
Outsourcing of promotional companies or use of available excellent promotional
facilities.
Entering new market segments.
Increase the product range to meet the broader range of customers’ needs.
6.4 THREATS:
Increase in competition due to increasing number of foreign and domestic private banks
offering highly specialized and attractive services.
Growing global technological advancements and adaptation of modern style of
management in banking sectors.
Extensive promotion campaigns run by competitors.
Unemployment, lower level of income and prices like problems in the motherland
coupled with low rate of industrialization, geo political adverse conditions, religious
factor, lack of consistency in policies due to political instability are some of the other
major threats.
This SWOT analysis is a mirror image of the bank’s present conditions. Some efforts are
made and others are still required to be made in order to improve the situation. The
management can develop elaborate strategic plans for capitalizing the available
opportunities. The bank should maintain principal of professional management and adhere to
sound and sophisticated banking rules and regulations so that confidence and trust of the
public in the institutions could be re earned.

7. PEST ANALYSIS
7.1 POLITICAL
Pakistan despite all international and public perceptions, today is a functioning
democracy and gradually there is a change in complexion and composition of legislatures with
more educated people and women (27% of National Assembly and17% of Senate) entering into
politics Similarly it helps in designing best strategies to implement that could support the
revival of bank industry. Like in the era of nationalization banks had to suffer
as other industries that’s why that impact is still found in the performance of this industry.
7.2 ECONOMICAL
Although banking sector development is important at the early stage of economic growth,
general liberalization presuming a homogeneous bank role may not necessarily promote growth.
The estimated cost structure indicates that state-owned commercial banks are large enough,
while development financial institutions and private banks can expect to obtain cost-
saving advantages by expanding their operations. Since scope economies are significant,
portfolio diversification generally increases bank profits. In addition, privatized banks are the
most efficient, followed by foreign and private banks. Public banks are the least efficient.
7.3 SOCIAL
Banks always helped people in improvement of living condition of poor people in various
forms like giving loans to poor for starting business or directly providing them the instruments
that could enhance their living conditions. Similarly UBL always tried to provide the needy
people loans on soft terms and helped also to decrease unemployment by providing
job opportunities.
7.4 TECHNOLOGY
The Banking sector in Pakistan has experienced a rapid transformation. Just about a
decade back this sector was limited to the Sarkari (nationalized) and co-operative banks. Then
63. 56
came the multi-national banks, but these were confined to serving an elite few. One could regard
the past as the medieval ages in the banking industry, wherein every branch of the same bank
acted as an independent information and multi-channel banking (ATMs, Net banking, Tele-
banking, etc) was almost non-existent. Today banks have to look much beyond just providing a
multi-channel service platform for its customers.
8. RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendations are considered to be the most important part of an internship report,
without which no report is considered complete and meaningful. This part of the report is based
on the previous sections i.e. review and analysis. Moreover, for bringing suggestions, discussions
have been conducted with the staff of UBL officers, who not only provided the basis for
recommendations but also pointed out some areas, where the change for the development is
utmost important. Realizing the importance of this section, efforts have been made to give
feasible recommendations, which are categorized under the following headings.
8.1 HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT:
The importance of manpower cannot be denied in any organization. In case of banks it is
the most valuable asset, because the bank is very sensitive organization and to be in harmony
with this sensitivity, need for proper human resource is felt badly. Critical analysis of UBL
necessities recommending suggestions that would increase bank’s efficiency and effectiveness.
Development of Managerial Leadership:
In services industries like banks the need of managerial skill is much more important. It
makes positive contribution towards higher effective results. Without development of managerial
leadership, the effective utilization of the human resource will be impossible. UBL should also
focus on this area and should avoid deficiencies in managerial leadership, by applying the
modern styles of management.
Political interference:
64. 57
The political intervention in the bank needs to be stopped so that the top hierarchy as well as
the personnel placed at other important levels of the institution is not changed Just on political
grounds and the ongoing developmental work is not obstructed. It will enable the management to
formulate long term strategies and their proper implementation because the long term policies,
accurately based on calculated risk, have proved the pivotal role players for organizational
sustainable development.
Basis for Promotion:
A sizeable portion of the officers of UBL, are promoted in without test and interviews to
officers cadre. The promotion policy must be too tight and transparent that no one may have the
chance to be promoted on criteria other than the required qualification, experience and
performance. As for the present excess staff, those not found up to the required criteria, may be
given GHS etc .
Management Changes on Merit:
In UBL, though vary rare fresh recruitments are made, and the bank faces saturation in
personnel, now clipping will be more helpful. This downsizing will leave the bank with the staff,
to be retained on the basis of ultimate meritocracy with zero tolerance of incompetence. Now in
this remaining workforce, a cultural change right from the top management down to the front
line, that better suits to the present day needs of banking environment could be included through
proper discipline and training.
Needs of change in Recruitment Policy:
It is important to say that the external level market is full of the required talent like MBA, M.
Com etc,. But on the country only graduation with simple subjects is still the requisite
qualification for officer’s cadre, which has already worked amply in the devastation of UBL.
Therefore the recruitment qualification to the officer’s framework should be enhanced for simple
graduation, to professionally qualify preferably Masters in their respective fields.
65. 58
Refresher Courses:
The Human of the bank should frequently conduct meaningful refresher courses, seminars
and workshops with a view to improve the knowledge of the staff. Due to severe competition and
technological developments, the banking business is experiencing rapid changes therefore the
HRD should have arrangements for staff trainings to cope with the new changes that may
become threats for the interest of the bank.
Computer Trainings:
The present conventional and orthodox training programmes need to be made more
comprehensive and reinforced with inclusion of computer training courses.
Training for Credit Management:
Special trainings on credit management should be imparted to the finance dealing staff.
Financing is main fountain bank’s income. Sound finance is extremely necessary for opening of
springs of the smooth inflow of the income.
Training with Clear Objectives:
Training needs assessment is necessary so that only the relevant staff is sent for the training
courses.
Change in Appraisal System:
The present performance appraisal system is good. However, it needs to be implemented in
true sense. The drawbacks that are obvious like nepotism and favoritism etc. need to rooted out
and the culture of ultimate meritocracy in appraising needs be inculcated.
Introduction of New Courses:
The human recourses division of the bank should focus on the restoration of the corporate
image of the bank by floating programmes such as, marketing excellence, courses on corporate
culture and others. Usually in businesses the wholesalers, retailers and other intermediaries are
finished by opening a network of the business own outlets. It works as profit maximization
66. 59
devise. In my opinion the above two programmes marketing excellence and corporate culture,
added with the best counter service and outdoor informal relationship with the potential
customers by the line managers will save the sum of money spent on various media of
advertisement.
Cheaper means for Postings etc.
The culture of attachment of hopes with the elements outside UBL, for promotion, transfers,
postings, and other benefits requires eradication from the roots.
Customers Orientation:
Every entrepreneur if concerned about the success of his business has to understand,
recognize, carefully and appropriately that his customer is “The King” of the business system
and the original spring of the business revenue. UBL should recognize its customers as the
mainstream of the bank’s revenue. They need to be provided the deserved respect, quality and in
time service and to be politely dealt with.
Career Development:
As a matter of personnel policy HRD of UBL should prepare a plan showing the future
growth potential of employees on the job performance and evaluation and it should be made
known to the employees. In this regard, employees should be given opportunities to show their
performances, which would help in their career development.
8.2 CREDITS AND ADVANCES DEPARTMENT:
The defaulted loans have showered the process of development of banking sectors in
Pakistan and have reduced the lending capacities of banks. In result of which economic growth
has reduced and rate of industrialization has become lowered. Defaulted loans being the major
cause for this depression, various suggestions and recommendations have been given with focus
on UBL to overcome the drawbacks of this department.
Fake financial presentation:
67. 60
The bank should confirm that the provided figures by the borrowing organization are
fairly audited and that the auditors are on the approved list of the bank and they have clear
opinion about the affairs of company and nothing has been made secret. The bank should have
expert to examine various changes and developments for years in areas of the borrowing
corporation like;
i. Financial condition
ii. Cash generation
iii. Ability to pay back
iv. Operational performance
The focus should be on identifying and explaining significant changes and developments in
payback of loans, profit maximization, capital flow and operating expenses etc. the bank should
take critical view of the financial and should assess changes occurred during the favorable and
slack reason for the company.
Poor Management:
A large number of industrial units and projects become sick because of poor management.
When a business becomes sick or fails it is unable to return the loans, it has taken, and as a result
such loans become bad debts, to avoid this, it is the responsibility of UBL, to ensure that the
company to which loan is sanctioned enjoys good management skills and reputation.
Proper Documentation:
Loans become irrecoverable through court of law in case of default when the bank fails to
prove their claims against the delinquent borrower. If documents are obtained properly as per
terms of the loan it is not difficult for the counsel of the bank to get decree against the defaulter.
For proper and valid documentation the following aspects must be kept in mind.
68. 61
I. The bank should confirm that standard loan documentation is in place for each credit
facility prior to disbursement. If the documents required are different from the bank’s
standard approved format, arrangement for vetting of the legal counsel.
II. Bank should ensure that the documentation are correct, complete and correspond with the
approved facilities. Also to ensure that blank spaces are filled, documents are dated,
signed and stamped, the signer is authorized to execute such documents and signatures
are verified.
III. Maintain documentation checklist, updating it properly each time new documentation
received.
IV. Maintaining computerized record of documentation.
V. Division of documentation on the basis of sector, to which loan is given.
