    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

    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.

    Initially the Bank was established with the objective to extend credit to the agriculture sector.

    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

    items, services and ideas. In marketing,a product is anything that can be offered to a market that

    might satisfy a want or need.7 Since 1575, the word "product" has referred to anything produced.

    meaning of product was first used by political economist Adam Smith.In general usage, product

    P a g e | 21

    groups, are marketed through same types of outlets, or fall within the given price ranges. 8 The

    DEPOSITS

    The National Bank of Pakistan offers to their clients a variety of Deposit Schemes with

    personalized services at competitive rates of interest. Any Pakistani citizen can open his/her

    account for any deposit scheme at any of its Branches strategically located throughout Pakistan.

    The Bank with its huge network of 1243 branches garners savings from both the rich and the

    Because National Bank of Pakistan has a long heritage of trust and professional commitment.

    CURRENT DEPOSITS

    These are payable to the customer when ever they are demanded. When a banker accepts a

    demand deposit, he incurs the obligation of paying all cheques etc, drawn against him to the

    extent of the balance in the account. Because of their nature, these deposits are treated as current

    liabilities by the banks. Bankers in Pakistan do not allow nay profit on these deposits, and

    customers are required to maintain a minimum balance, failing which incidental charges are

    deducted from such accounts. This is because Current Deposits may be withdrawn by the

    depositors at any time, and as such the bank is not entirely free to employ such deposits. 9Current

    Accounts/ Basic Banking accounts are opened, on proper introduction and submission of

    required documents along with initial deposit prescribed from time to time. Basic banking

    accounts are opened for an individuals (single or joint) only whereas current accounts are opened

    for individuals (single or joint) Charitable institution, provident and other funds of benevolent

    nature of local bodies, autonomous corporations, companies, associations, educational

    institutions, firms etc. and in all other cases where the accounts are to opened under the order of

    a competent court of law. No profit is paid on the balances of current/basic banking accounts.

    The bank is authorized to deduct service charges (incidental charges) on current accounts levied

    through its half yearly schedule of charges, in case the average balance falls below the minimum

    balance as prescribed by the bank. No balance maintenance condition is applied on basic banking

    account.

    PLS SAVING DEPOSITS

    InPakistan a Savings Deposits Account can be opened with a very small amount of money, and

    the depositor is issued a cheque book for withdrawals. Profit is paid at a flexible rate calculated

    on six monthly basis under the Interest Free Banking System. There is no restriction on thewithdrawals from the deposit accounts but the amount of money withdraw is deleted from the

    amount to be taken for calculation of products for assessment of profit to be paid to the account

    holder. It discourages unnecessary withdrawals from the deposits. In order to popularize the

    scheme the SBP has allowed the Savings Scheme for school and college students and industrial

    labour also. The purpose of these accounts is to inculcate the habit of savings in the constituents.

    As such, the initial deposits required for opening these accounts are very nominal. 10NBP charge

    Rs.500 for opening of PLS Savings deposits.

    The silent features of profit and loss sharing and saving accounts of NBP are as fallows

    1. These accounts can be opened by individuals in their own single or joint name. The PLS

    savings account can also be opened for provident fund or other benevolent funds of

    companies, firms, organizations, NGOs and educational institutions.

    2. PLS saving account can be opened with a minimum amount of Rs.500/- only

    3. To share in the profit a minimum balance of Rs.500/- must be maintained in the account.

    maintained. The customer can go to a branch anywhere in the country and perform a transaction.

    This is possible as the entire Customer Database is centrally located at the central Data Centre

    P a g e | 63

    and can be accessed throughout the network of branches. Business processes in all the branches

    Anywhere Banking

    location where their account is maintained.

    Integration with strategic sectors

    Core Banking integrates all strategic sectors of Banking such as Trade Finance, Treasury, Asset-

    Liability Management and Corporate Balance Sheet. As a result, the information related to these

    areas is centrally available for use or reference.

    Strengthening MIS, DSS and EIS

    Core banking application is more than just a transaction processing system. It provides updated

    data for generating various reports for Management information system (MIS), and will facilitate

    Decision Support System (DSS) and Executive Information System (EIS). As data is located on

    CDC, branches and administrative offices can concurrently avail updated data when required.

    Business Process Re-engineering
