Time is the big constraint for my research. I have to submit a broader deal in a shorter

Data from BRAC Bank is highly confidential for the outside people and I had no
authority to use the core banking software.

me much time for interview.
As I have taken a sample of 60 observations, there may be sampling error. I had to go under my day to day job res ponsibility that I was supposed to do so. So I
could get few more time to s pend in collecting data for preparing my internship report.

(7.4) Marketing Process Relates to SME loan
Market Segmentation
In terms of our country most financial institution starts out with extensive business and
marketing plans to attract potential customer s. For a good market plan fir st we need to segment
our market and than started to provide our service. In our literature review we stated that we can
segment our market in 4 ways these are Geographic, Demographic, Psychographic and
Behavioral Segmentation. So now we see how BRAC bank follows it. For view market structure
BRAC bank try to follows market segmentation strategy
Geographic segmentation: In terms of SME loan, it targets every region around the
country in terms of small business. Now the SME has almost 392 unit offices to provide
credit facilities to the clients around the country. Each of the SME unit offices mainly
s
etup the dis
trict levels
around the city but not in the rural or undeveloped areas
. Demographic Segmentation: In terms of SME loan, in some cases it is very strict. If
some one who has Hindu religion and live close to the border, SME would have very
careful to provide loans to those clients. SME provide loans 20-60 aged peoples. SME is
restricted to provide loans more than age of 65.
Psychographic Segmentation: In terms of SME loan, clients are differing in attitudes,
interest and activity like some are time constrained and some are money constrained. So
bank always tries to focus these things and than very careful provide loans to those
clients.
Behavioral Segmentation: In terms of SME loan, few clients would be found those who
had done MS and most of customer s are secondary or higher secondary pass. But basically SME segments customer s at least whether the customer s can under stand his/her
own business.

There are three sector s of target marketing which SME follows: Trading, Service and
Manufacturing.
Figure 5: Target Market of BRAC Bank
From the diagram we notice that in these 3 types of business there are different types of
business sector. In our country now a day¶s main business is garments and departmental store,
few people want to do fast food business and very few people wants to started retail or bakery.
As a result most of the demands go for trading business. Basically according to the customer s
demand, SME support them financially to develop their business.
But BBL scope is also much s pecified because they are restricted on leather, jewelry andalcohol business. So BRAC bank use a differentiating marketing strategy for decides to target
several markets or niches and designs separate offer s for each market. Most of the BRAC bank
time they provide the loan within 25 days and to repay the loan they give the highest months than
other bank s. Their loan providing time and monthly repay system depends on the business size
BRAC bank SME also categorizes the dealings with the customer s in A, B & C groups.

Market Positioning
For competitive market positioning SME already establish different unit offices across the
country. Each unit office consists of 2 or 3 CRO who provides door to door services, if needed
than they work at night. For make a position in the market CRO clearly defines to the customer s
about SME policies and repayment schedules. The CRO of SME never say to the customer at the
fir st impression that interest rate is 24%. They try to make under stand to the clients mind that 2%
per month or equal monthly payment as well as many benefits. To positioning in the market,
SME not only provide loan but also they give
some valuable idea

Developing Marketing Mix
Once the company decided on its overall marketing strategy, it¶s ready to plan the marketing
mix. In literature review we know about marketing mix and its variable. So now we see how
BRAC bank plans about marketing mix.

Fastest growing bank in the country for the last five year s
Leader in SME financing through
392 unit office
s
Biggest suit of per sonal banking & SME products
Large ATMs (Automated Teller Machine) & POS (Point of Sales) network
In the BRAC Bank basically the most of the user s are business man. In our country there
is various kind of businessman. We also found that above 50% user s are businessman.
Maximum client¶s age is between 30 to 50 year s.
We know that Bangladesh is a poor country and the educational background of
Bangladeshi people is not too high level. Our user s, basically businessmen are not too
educated and they have very poor decision making power. This is the main drawback in
our Banking field.
Most of the businessman are want to take SME loan for develop their business. This SME loan is very helpful for meet the daily expenses. That means they use this loan as
working capital. Very less people use this kind of loan for purchase fixed assets.
It is also found that the rate of interest is satisfactory than other Bank s. That¶s why the
clients are very happy with our rate of interest.
Time duration play a very major role in the mind of client s. Because they want to take
loan easily & early with minimum difficulties. In our country maximum people know
that loan taking is time consuming and very difficult.
Maximum clients are happy to repay their loans in equal installments with very easy
process.
We know that new marketing concept is door to door marketing. When the

During internship with BRAC bank it found that for make a good impression to the
customer at fir st bank never say to the customer that there interest rate is 24%.
BRAC bank in some level they don¶t require collateral security against loan but some
time they require collateral security against loan. From our literature review we knowthat one of the characteristic of SME loan is no collateral so it can say that they are not
really practicing SME loan dis bur sement system.

income from SME loan is increasing and now it¶s in a good position. In 2007 bank earn
65.93% interest in come from SME loan and their most of the income come from SME

remarkable progress of its financial position with the mission of being countries leading bank
providing world-class services in a cost effective manner. This bank fir st introduces the SME
loan in commercial banking sector, which help the people of poor society both in rural and
urban. One thing can be noted that time horizon is too little to predict or evaluate the
performance but the analysis clearly represents the better performance of the BRAC Bank
Limited since its inception in year 2001. This report aims at providing an overall analysis of the
repayment behavior of the SME loan borrower s of BRAC Bank Limited. Before going to the
analysis, it is mandatory to know something about the organization, its core products that it
offer s to its customer s; about the SME loan, its classifications and the whole of its process
starting from loan sanction to recovery and closing of the loan. Here I tried to focus the bank¶s
history of origination, it
smi
ssion and vi
sion, major department
sand bu
sine
ssunit
sand major products and services. Here I focused on the terms and conditions of giving SME loan, enterprise
selection criteria and documentation. Then talked about the procedure of SME loan, the sanction,
dis bur sement, repayment and closing of SME loan. After talking about the whole process of
SME loan, I made an attempt to analyze the repayment behavior of SME loan borrower s.
After analyzing the BRAC bank I may conclude that in developing countries like Bangladesh
small & medium enterprises have come into the forefront of development agenda due to the
recognition of their contribution in fostering growth, sustaining global economic recovery,
generating employment and reducing poverty.
