BRIEF HISTORYOF NATIONAL BANKOF PAKISTAN
The history of National Bank of Pakistan is part of Pakistans struggle for economic
independence. National Bank of Pakistan was established on November 9, 1949 under the

The normal procedure of establishing a banking company under the Companies Law was set
aside and the Bank was established through the promulgation of an Ordinance, due to the crisis
situation that had developed with regard to financing of jute trade. The Bank commenced its
operations from November 20, 1949 at six important jute centers in the then, East Pakistan and
directed its resources in financing of jute crop. The Banks Karachi and Lahore offices were
subsequently opened in December 1949. The National Bank of Pakistan came forward to
establish its offices in the Cotton growing areas and extended credit facilities liberally in order to
restore stability to the market. In 1951, the country was once again faced with a crisis in the
cotton trade when prices was crashed and touched the lowest level since independence following
the cessation of hostilities in Korea. The bank in collaboration with the cotton board provided the
necessary Credit facilities to the trade and the crisis was tided over. 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 countrys growing trade, which has expanded through the years as diversification took place .1

1249(2008) branches in Pakistan and 22(2008) overseas branches. Under a trust Deed, the bank
