www.AssignmentPoint.com
There are some limitations in every analysis. I have also faced some problems at the time
analyzing the performance of the bank. The limitations of my analysis are given below:
i. Time is limited (3 month)
ii. Insufficiency of information.
iii. The bank personnel are very busy.
iv. It was very difficult to collect the information from various personnel for their job
constraint.
v. As some of the fields of banking are still not covered by our courses, there was difficulty
in understanding some activities.

information for obvious reason, which could very much useful.
vii. I carried out such a study for the first time, so inexperience is one of the main
constraints or the study.

Bangladesh Commerce Bank
Limited
2.1 Historical Background of BCBL
www.AssignmentPoint.com
Bangladesh Commerce Bank Ltd incorporated in Bangladesh on 1 June 1998 as a
banking company, it started banking operations on 16 September 1999 with an
authorized and paid up capital of Tk 2,000 million and Tk 920 million
respectively. The share of the government of Bangladesh in the bank's paid up
capital is Tk 300 million while depositors of the former Bangladesh Commerce
and Investment Limited (BCIL) contributed Tk 520 million. The balance of Tk
100 million is to be subscribed by banks and financial institutions under guidance
and supervision by Bangladesh bank.
The former BCIL was set up on 27 January 1986 as a non-bank financial
institution. It continued its business till April 1992. Consequent upon its liquidity
crisis, Bangladesh Bank suspended its operations in April 1992. As a result, the
investors of the company suffered a lot and its employees became jobless. Both
the depositors and the jobless employees launched a movement for reopening the
company in some form or other and demanded return of their money and dues.
With a view to safeguarding the interest of the depositors, employees and the
general public, and to protecting the banking system itself from contagious effects
of bank failures, the government of Bangladesh established the Bangladesh
Commerce Bank on the ashes of the collapsed BCIL.
Subsequently, the government on 8 February 1998 constituted a 10-member board
of directors to organize and transform BCIL into BCBL and to administer the
affairs of the bank. The 24 branches of BCIL were reopened as full-fledged
branches of BCBL. The broad objective of the bank is to carry out all kinds of
commercial banking activities and to respond quickly to the changing demands
for modern banking products.
www.AssignmentPoint.com
In its three months of operations in 1999 starting on 16 September and ending on
31 December, BCBL had mobilized deposits of Tk 83 million. To augment its
deposit collection further, BCBL introduced a number of deposit schemes suited
to the needs of all classes of people in society. These schemes include a) Monthly
Profit Based Deposit Scheme, b) Pension Saving Scheme, c) Interest Free Deposit
and Loan Scheme, d) Consumers' Credit Scheme, and e) Money Plantation
Against Saving Certificates. It has also offered competitive rates of interest on its
deposit holdings, which varied between 7.75% and 12% since the inception of its
operations through May 2000. Total deposits stood at Tk 1,294.2 million on 31
December 2000, when its gross loans and advances amounted to Tk 1,311
million.
The first priority of the bank in 1999 and 2000 was the recovery of the past loans
of the BCIL. It has managed to recover Tk 523.3 million in cash and Tk 1,788
million by adjustment against past liabilities. The bank is overburdened with the
liabilities and the non-performing classified loans of BCIL. The bank also
suffered losses in the years 1999 and 2000 and was not able to maintain necessary
provisions for classified loans. Investment of the bank has increased from Tk 20
million in 1999 to Tk 95 million in 2000, mainly in government treasury bills.
Because of the huge stuck up loans inherited from the BCIL, the bank's credit-
deposit ratio stood at 101.30%.
Total assets of BCBL, including the Tk 1,423.99 million of former BCIL stood at
Tk 3,763.7 million on 31 December 2000. The bank's off-balance-sheet reserve
was only Tk 95.8 million, a figure which has contributed little to the increase of
its asset-mix. In 2000, BCBL maintained liquid assets of Tk 1,052.6, a sum hardly
sufficient to meet its accumulated short-term/current obligations. On the other
www.AssignmentPoint.com
hand, statutory liquid assets of the bank were 15.08% in 2000, which is below the
20% SLR requirement envisaged by Bangladesh Bank. Because BCBL had
absorbed huge amount of liabilities and non-performing assets of BCIL, it was not
possible for the bank to make net profits during the short period of its existence in
the new set-up.
The bank is managed by a 9-member board of directors appointed by the
government. A total of 590 officers and other staff work in the head office and the
24 branches of the bank. It has inherited a training institute from BCIL. This
institute is being reorganized to provide training to its employees in modern
banking services.

Bank is the largest mobilizer of surplus domestic savings. For poverty alleviation,
we need self employment, for self-employment we need investment and for
investment we need savings. In the other words, savings help capital formations
and the capital formations help investments in the country. The investment in its
turn helps industrialization leading towards creation of wealth of the country. And
the wealth finally takes the country on road to progress and prosperity. As such,
www.AssignmentPoint.com
savings is considered the very basis of prosperity of the country. The more the
growth of savings, the more will be the prosperity of the nation.
The savings rate in Bangladesh is one of the lowest in the world. In order to
improve the savings rate, Financial Institutions responsible for mobilization of
savings should offer attractive Savings Schemes so that the marginal propensity to
save increases. The savings do not, of course, depend only on the quantum of
income but largely depend on the habit of savings of the people.
Interest rate of Savings Deposit Account is 6.00% for the year 2008.

5.11 Loan Products: Prime Bank Ltd.
Like Deposit Scheme, PRIMA BANK have formulated the following Loan
Schemes
General Loan Scheme
Lease Finance
House Building / Apartment Loan Scheme
Small and Medium Enterprise (SME)
Consumer Credit Scheme
Hire Purchase
Advance against Share
5.11.1 General Loan Scheme
Depending on the various nature of financing, all the lending activities have been
brought under the following General Loan
Short term Loan
Medium term Loan
Long term Loan
www.AssignmentPoint.com
The loans are allowed to individual/firm/industries for a specific purpose but for a
definite period and generally repayable by installments fall under this head. This type of
lending are mainly allowed to accommodate financing under the categories (i) Large &
Medium Scale Industry and (ii) Small & Cottage Industry. Very often term financing for
(1) Agriculture (ii) Others.
5.11.2 Lease Finance
Lease financing is one of the most convenient long term sources of acquiring capital
machinery and equipment. It is a very popular scheme whereby a client is given the
opportunity to have an exclusive right to use an asset, usually for an agreed period of
time, against payment of rent. Of late, the lease finance has become very popular in
almost all the countries of the world. An obvious advantage of the lease is to use an
asset without having to buy it. The lessee is obligated to make lease payments until the
expiration of the lease agreement, which corresponds to the useful life of the asset. In a
capital scarce economy like ours, Lease Financing is suitable for firms to acquire Capital
Machinery, Equipments, Medical Instruments, and Automobiles etc. And thereby
employ their own resources more advantageously in some other investments. Lease
financing also helps a firm to reap significant economic benefit through tax saving and
by reducing the risk of the equipments becoming obsolete due to the technological
advancement.

5.16.2 One Stop Utility Services Scheme
Like any other country of the world, the people living in the urban areas of our country
lead a very busy life. Time is very valuable to them. Despite this, they are to waste their
valuable time at the counter of different Banks and other Institutions for payment of
their monthly bills of different utility services like Electricity, Telephone, Water, Gas etc.
They, as such, face enormous difficulties for payment of their monthly bills in time. Such
inconveniences of the urban people can be removed by making an arrangement
to collect all the bills of various utility services at One Point.

With this end in view, Prime Bank Limited has introduced a Scheme entitled “ONE STOP

6.2 Product & Services
In case of Deposit product/scheme BCBL are not diversifying their product/special
scheme to the client who are belong to various social ground/culture/group etc. The
competitive banks innovating product to attract the new customers as well as to satisfy
existing client. And there a huge opportunity for BCBL to launch new featured product
to attract more customer.
In our country most of the Bank providing Consumer Credit, and the approximate
recovery rate is more or less 98% from which a Bank can earn a huge return. But at
www.AssignmentPoint.com
present BCBL not operating in that section and need to take that point in a great
consideration.
Additionally on the ground of services area BCBL are on back footed comparing to other
bank. BCBL providing only general services. But today customer needs are growing
enormously. So BCBL needs to expand its service area like Credit Card and ATM Card
and online banking operations for clients, Merchant Banking etc.
BCBL are on Back foot compare to other Bank on following factor-
1. Retail banking
2. Introduce special corporate scheme
3. ATM
4. Credit card and debit card system
5. Online Banking
6. Merchant banking
6.3 Opportunity should pick up by BCBL
Opportunity in retail banking lies in the fact that the country’s increased
population is gradually learning to adopt consumer finance. The bulk of our
population is middle class. Different types of retail lending products have great
appeal to this class. So a wide variety of retail lending products has a very large
and easily pregnable market.
A large number of private banks operating into the market in the recent time. In this
competitive environment BCBL must expand its product line to enhance its sustainable
competitive advantage. In that product line, they can introduce the ATM to compete
with the local and the foreign bank. They can introduce credit card and debit card
system for their potential customer.
www.AssignmentPoint.com
In order to reduce the business risk, BCBL has to expand their business portfolio. The
management can consider options of starting merchant banking or diversify into leasing
and insurance sector.
The activity in the secondary financial market has direct impact on the primary financial
market. Banks operate in the primary financial market. Investment in the secondary
market governs the national economic activity. Activity in the national economy controls
the business of the bank.
In addition of those things, BCBL can introduce special corporate scheme for the
corporate customer or officer who have an income level higher from the service holder.
At the same time, they can introduce scheme or loan for various service holders. And
the scheme should be separate according to the professions, such as engineers, lawyers,
doctors etc.

Future Prospect,
Recommendation
And
Conclusion7.1 Future Prospect
www.AssignmentPoint.com
Amid many challenges, adverse economic conditions and market scenario during the
year, the Bank maintained its growth trend through the indicators like, profitability,
deposit mobilization, asset creation and profitability, deposit mobilization, asset
creation and network expansion. Basing on convincing reasons, we strongly believe that
in the coming years also, the Bank strongly believes that in the coming years also, the
Bank would be able to attain its earning capacity at an accelerated growth rate.
Bank is also marking a headway for introduction of Credit Card and ATM Card and online
banking operations for clients, bank intends to enter into agreement with reputed
Exchange Companies in USA, UK and UAE for safe and steady flow of foreign remittances
into the country from Bangladesh expatriated working at those places.
We can safely say that we have well positioned ourselves in the banking arena of
Bangladesh with diversified products and financial services to seize the opportunities.
New custom-friendly products are being evolved in the days to come.
7.2 Recommendation
The banks are actually service organizations. The main objectives of the world famous
and successful banking organizations are to making of profit through addressing the
clients time to time with new pieces of service instruments. However my little
experience earned through this internship program took me to customers varying
demands. I had several frank discussions with the clients and officials, which has helped
me to know about the aforesaid findings and draw the following recommendation.
As soon as possible the bank should launch more branches in Dhaka city as well as in
other cities in Bangladesh.
www.AssignmentPoint.com
Now a day the world is going vary fast. Now most of the bank provides online services.
So that BCBL can take more initiative about that.
One of the business strategies is promotion. Successful business depend how they can
promote their products or services to the customer. In this connection to improve the
business status bank should introduce more promotional programs.
In the total banking system it is necessary to implement modern banking process
instead of traditional system. It should be more computerized.
All the foreign banks and other private commercial bank have Customer
relation/support/service officer in all branches. They sit in front of branches they solve
customers problem, answer inquiry of customers etc. BCBL should appoint customer
service officer in all branches.
BCBL should improve its service quality; otherwise it will fall back of other private
commercial bank.
Use of effective management information systems.
To deliver quality service top management should try to mitigate the gap between
customer’s expectation and employee’s perception.
Use appropriate techniques in evaluating customer need and convenience
professionally
BCBL needs more effective discipline for all branches.
It has some inefficient employee, so that management can look after that.
7.3 Conclusion
BCBL is one of the problem banks in Bangladesh. And they are doing well gradually. But
it has some draw back. I strongly believe that the banking services marketing are
different from goods marketing in a significant way. So that, it can improves totally
different strategy and tactics. And you can do marketing when you have signified
product & Service.
www.AssignmentPoint.com
To analyze the BCBL regarding to service & product we found that, to win the customer
satisfaction BCBL need to improve their service quality, enhance technological service
and launch new product which will generate inflow to the Bank.
