1. Introduction
Internship training program is necessary for completion of our degree. Its
necessary for me to complete my internship program about six week in any
manufacturing or service concern industry accordingly with our specialization.
So, I choose banking sector because I have interest in this sector and also the
reason behind choosing this sector is, mostly teachers during their lectures use
example related banks. The basic objective is how to implement my bookish
knowledge in a practical manner. This internship will help me in future because it
makes me punctual and now I can understand how employees work in a stress
environment.

NATIOINALIZATION:
In January 1974, the government of Pakistan nationalized MCB following
the banks (Nationalization) Act 1974, subsequently, in June 1974, Premier Bank
limited merged with MCB.
PRIVATIZATION:
A wave of economic reforms swept Pakistan in the late 1990s introducing
the need for privatization of state owned banks and companies in April 1991,
MCB because Pakistans first privatized Bank, the government of Pakistan
transferred the management of the Bank to Nishat Group, group of leading
industrialists of the country by selling 26% shares of the Bank. With a view to
broaden equity holding the government sold 25% of the paid up capital to the
general public. In terms of agreement between the government of Pakistan and
the Nishat Group additional 24% shares have been purchased by the group
making their holding 50%. As of June 2008, the Nishat Group owns a majority
stake in the bank. 25% was retained by the government.
Now it is fully privatized.
Mian Muhammad Mansha is the Chairman of the group (and also MCB)
and has played instrumental role in its success. In recognition of Mr. Manshas
contribution, the Government of Pakistan has conferred him with "Sitara-eImtiaz", one of the most prestigious civil awards of the country.

A major function of any banking system is the transfer of funds from one client or
one place to another. By providing this service to the customer the bank earns a
lot of income in the form of service charges. This department deals with local
currency remittance i.e. remittance from one city to another without actually
carrying the currency. MCB uses following instrument for transferring of money:
Clearance department:

department. It is just like any courier service which takes the cheques of other
banks and delivers the cheques of that branch to it.
Clearing is a system by which banks exchange cheques and other negotiable
instruments drawn on each other within a specified area and securing the
payment for its clients through the clearing house. A clearing house is a general
organization of the banks, basic purpose is balancing the cross obligation in the
form of cheques. When there are many banks in the country each will receive a
number of cheques drawn on other banks, deposited as well. A clearing house is
an organization where these cheques are cleared for avoiding any fraud. These
cheques may be drawn on UBL, HBL, NBP, or any other bank of Pakistan. The
respective officer collects all cheques and enters them in clearing Register. Then
officer put stamps on these cheques and arrange these cheques of different
banks and prepares schedule for them. These cheques are sent to clearing
house. Exchange of cheques takes place through NIFT.
[FMAS] Page 28

Advances
It is another major department of the branch. Bank provides this facility to the
people who need advance money to meet their requirements. For getting the
advances, the first step is the preparation of credit proposal. Some principles of
lending are considered whenever financing being is made. These principles are:
Character

This department mainly deals with the foreign currency like euro, ponds. Yen

3.5 Comments on the organizational structure
The MCB Jalal Pur Jattan Branch is contributing much in the economy as well as
society in which it is working. The customer of the area in which bank is located
are much satisfied because employees are very cooperative and give the
information related the customer problem in a friendly manner. But the most
critical thing I observed is that the dissatisfaction of staff with this organization
because of poor promotion strategy and congesting or a small building. They
complaint that there are too little incentives are paid. Overcrowded or overloaded
workload in many departments of the organization is just an extra burden for the
employees.

prepared Demand Draft, Account opening form. I learned whole process of
account opening of individuals practically. I remained involved very much in
practical activities of account opening as Miss Zardashiya whose duty was
account opening would remain very busy as number of customers coming for
account opening and getting information was high. So I assisted her.

these branches send these cheques to a specific branch through NIFT (National

From 6th September till end of the day:
In these days basically I repeat my work that I have already done. Fed (federal
excise duty) is a major task that assigned me from Miss Sadaf who is work in
cash department.
[FMAS] Page 49
MCB
Unfortunately I did not more work (except fed) in cash department due to the
restriction from manager side. He did not allow the internee to go in the cash
department. So I have no idea about the procedure of cash deposit or any other
cash department related things.
[FMAS] Page 50
MCB
Level of efficiency increase.
Respect the work regulations
Time management, internship makes me punctual
fulfill the instructions of your advisor as well as you can
Perform your work in a healthy and secure mode
[FMAS] Page 51
MCB
This practical knowledge would supports in dealing with people as
well as ease to understand the behavior of customer and institution
relationship.
This internship proved as a great personality developer for me in following ways
which could leave a great impact on my future;
[FMAS] Page 52
MCB
As I have studied and analyzed MCB Bank Ltd I found out that this a good bank
as its working, management is concerned.
First of all the reason of this is that there is no directive style in the management
of MCB and which shows that there is decentralization in the Bank and every
branch manager can take decision according to the situation.
MCB is providing their customers with wide range of services including online
banking, virtual banking and some of their new products in the pipeline; include
ATM network etc shows that MCB Bank is taking good care of their customers.
MCB Bank made heavy investments, towards enhancing its capabilities in the
area of automation and technology. MCB is well positioned to meet client needs,
with improved competitive advantage.
[FMAS] Page 53
MCB
strategies can be formulated.
The performance reward linkages should be made strong as it said, A happy
employee deliver more than he receive from organization. MCB Bank limited
should become specific about its competitors, so that it can understand who its
competitor is in the first degree and who is in the second degree. Then the firstdegree competitors should be watched closely. MCB should continuously
conduct its financial analysis and compare it with that of other banks. In this way
consciousness about the banks financial matters will tend to improve. More
training and development programs should be launched in order to clear the
concepts of employees about new products and banking techniques.
Internees are not considered as a part of the organization so are not allotted as
such assignments. Theres no proper arrangement for guidance of internees.
And from the financial and when I conduct comparative analysis with other banks
I found that it is somewhat better than others, so I can say that MCB Bank is
performing very well.
Strength:
MCB is the first Pakistani privatized bank and because of its quality
management, marketing, innovation in products and services is
performing well in financial market.
Has established a good reputation in the banking market
Flexibility with the changing environment
Safe and secure investments venture
Innovative and new technology adapter
Well Equipped and fully secure environment
[FMAS] Page 54
MCB
Modernized banking (online + Internet)
MCB Mainly operated by manshas group.
The bank has efficient IT infrastructure and networ4k of on line
branches.
MCB is in its over 63 years of operation. It has a network of over 1,000
branches all over the country with business establishments in
Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Bahrain.
Being the senior bank in Pakistan it is highly recognized all over
Pakistan and it is very well known among its customers
Strong customer relationship.
MCB is also providing mobile banking for best satisfaction of customer.
At present it has the largest ATM network in Pakistan.
The bank has huge amount of assets
The bank is involved in different investing activities where there is a
huge amount of output available for the bank that bank can use for its
growth
MCB has a very senior and dedicated work force as well as young and
creative staff; those are big asset for the bank.
Weakness:
The majority of people are not well aware about the products of MCB.
Therefore it should advertise extensively especially RTC and Master
Cards.
In MCB there is lack of specialized skill because of job rotation policy
of human resource department. The bank should concentrate upon
increasing its abilities on individual service basis.
Mismanagement of time is another big mistake in MCB branches, the
bank official time of closing is 5:30pm but due mismanaging of time
[FMAS] Page 55
MCB
allocation and work the staff is normally on their seats till 7:00 or 8:00
clock.
Slow improvement and acceptance of technological changes
More emphasis on deposit accumulation and less on their mobilization
Networking problems regarding ATM
Weak MIS interconnectivity among the Division
No mobile ATM services in rural areas
Though Muslim Commercial Bank installed computer yet the system
has not totally shifted on computer. Manual procedure is still there
hence computer facility is not fully availed. It should be fully availed
and system should be fully computerized.
The large number of customers of MCB is uneducated.
The old staff resists adopting change like adoption of new technology.
Less job satisfaction of employees.
Promotions generally on seniority basis.
As most of the employees are young they have more tendencies to
switch the organization and to seek more opportunities.
Opportunity:
Greater potential and opportunities for Credit Division if Liberal Policies
being adopted.
Can grab more market share for its RTCs, remittances and foreign
exchange department through effective promotional and liberal policies.
Adoption of information technology will improve the customer services.
Establishing more Foreign Branches
Local Setup should be expanded.
Internet Banking
Some more innovative products and services should be introduced.
[FMAS] Page 56
MCB
Since the Bank has an extensive networks of branches so if the bank can
be able to computerize all of its branches then it can be able to capture
the market more efficiently
The bank has already large number of customers by providing better and
better services to their existing customers, but word of mouth can also be
helpful in increasing the number of customers to have a competitive
advantage over its growing number of competitors.
Since the Bank is earning a lot of profit per annum so by increasing the
employees salaries and providing incentives the Bank can produce more
loyal employees that can increase the productivity.
Emergence of Islamic banking in the country and MCB is increasing its
Islamic banking operations.
Bank has earned a good name by introducing innovative products like car
financing home financing credit cards these products can easily enhance
the market share.
Free staff training facilities offered.
Elimination of risk of fraud through professional training
Opportunity to open branch in ruler area to increase its branch network
and gain more profit.
The bank can earn more profit by advancing to farmers and industrialist at
low rates.
New schemes for deposits and finances should be introduced regularly
Threat:
Change in government policies has affected the banking business. Still
banks have to wait to get permission of state bank. The freezing of foreign
currency accounts is a vital example of letting people not to trust on
banks.
[FMAS] Page 57
MCB
The decrease purchasing power of consumer in the current economic
situation of the country affecting the business activity speed too much and
the result is the low investment from the investors in new projects can
create problem for the bank because it is working a lot in trade.
Downsizing is potential threat for MCB employees and they are losing
their confidence towards bank performance
Changing environment of banking
Instable Govt., economical and political conditions are a great threat.
Due to increasing number of foreign banks in Pakistan which offer a very
attractive package for their employees the very key employees of the bank
are more likely to resign which is a very major threat.
Not all branches are computerized neither providing ATM services and no
online banking and the customers demand for these services is increasing
day by day so Bank should computerize all its branches.
People losing trust in banks
The market is already saturated uncertainty in Pakistan and poor law and
order situation are also big threat for bank
Restructuring of privatized banks
Cost of doing business is day to day due to energy crises so its very hard
to complete with financial sector
Government policies are changing day by day and government stability is
also not there.
[FMAS] Page 58

6. Recommendations:
From the Quantum of the profit and its financial data it can be easily
judged that after privatization, MCB is performing well. Its deposits are
growing day by day and so its profitability. The controlling body is
responsible for the productive performance of the Bank.
Following are my observation and suggestion to improve the efficiency for
the development of the bank.
Bank should give some more incentive to its employees in order to
remove the conflict between lower and higher officers and should try to
improve the working condition of the bank.
As such system should be designed that every employee who has some
problems with his officers can communicate it to the higher management
and some steps must be taken to improve that.
Recruitments should be strictly on merit basis and induction should be
after proper and extensive training.
Old and lazy staff should be replaced by young, qualified and energetic
staff.
Foreign branches should be opened in order to capture the international
market and to earn international repute for the bank.
Working environment, equipment, furniture and staff dressing should be
according to the modern banking style.
Proper attention should be paid to upgrade customer services.
Bank should adopt the global organizational banking structure to meet the
[FMAS] Page 59
MCB
international standards of banking sector.
Internees should also be considered part of the organization, and should
be given some practical work as well in order to give them a more detailed
knowledge regarding work.
IT department should be made efficient. Computer software should be well
maintained and monitored in order to prevent delays in work. Software
problems should be managed.
