executive summaryEvery student of Commerce at Hailey College of Commerce University of the
Punjab has an essential requirement to do Six to Eight weeks internship in any of the
well reputed organization. The purpose of this program is to acquaint the students
with practical applications of theoretical concepts taught to them during conduct of
their .Com and M.Com program. The internship in Habib Bank was arranged by the
2Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
job placement cell of the institute. Really, it was a nice opportunity to have a close
comparison of theoretical concept in practical field, involving the use of primary and
secondary data. All the efforts on the way are summarized in shape of this Internship
Report. Report starts with the topic evolution of banking. The word 'Bank' is said to
have been derived from the words Bancus or Banque or Bank. This history of
banking is traced to as early as 2000 B.C. Talking about commercial banking in
Pakistan It was very difficult for Pakistan to build up its own Banking system
immediately after independence without sufficient resources. By 30th June 1948 the
number of schedule banks in Pakistan declined from mere scratch. Today there are
more than 7000 branches of commercial banks along with an established network of
supplementary financial institutions. All this development in the banking sector is the
result of untiring efforts of six decades. HBL was the first commercial bank to be
established in Pakistan in 1947. Over the years, HBL has grown its branch network
and become the largest private sector bank with over 1,450 branches across the
country and a customer base exceeding five million relationships.
On December 29, 2003 Pakistan's Privatization Commission announced that
the Government of Pakistan had formally granted the Aga Khan Fund for Economic
Development (AKFED) rights to 51% of the shareholding in HBL, against an
investment of PKR 22.409 billion (USD 389 million). This report contains information
about HBL’s board of directors, management, mission, vision and values. HBL’s
operations are discussed in light of its working department in the branches like cash,
clearing, foreign exchange and accounts department and also in light of its services
and products which it is offering to customers’ weather they are individual, business,
corporate or agriculture field related customers. HBL is currently offering phone
banking, internet banking and various cash management services for the facilitation
of its customers. HBL’s car to car loan has its own uniqueness in Pakistan’s banking
sector. HBL’s branch network is extended all over the Pakistan which has its
competitive edge over all other private sector banks in Pakistan.
During the time of my internship in Habib Bank Wan Bhachran Mianwali I got
the chance to work in all the departments of HBL working there. Duties and learning
in each department is given in this report. Talking about financial performance of the
bank in 2010 all the financial indicators are showing positive results when the
3Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
financial performance of the bank in 2010 is compared with financial performance of
2009. During 2010 HBL also won some awards. At the end of this report I have given
my suggestion for the improvement of the bank.
Evolution of banking
The word 'Bank' is said to have been derived from the words Bancus or
Banque or Bank. This history of banking is traced to as early as 2000 B.C. The
priests in Greece used to keep money and valuables of the people in temples. These
priests thus acted as financial agents. The origin of banking is also traced to early
4Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
goldsmiths. They used to keep strong safes for storing the money and valuables of
the people. The persons who had surplus money found it safe and convenient of
deposit their valuables with them. The first stage in the development of modern
banking, thus, was the accepting of deposits of cash from those persons who had
surplus money with them.
The goldsmiths used to issue receipts for the money deposited with them.
These receipts began to pass from hand to hand in settlement of transactions
because people had confidence in the integrity and solvency of goldsmiths. When it
was found that these receipts were fully accepted in payment of debts; then the
receipts were drawn in such a way that it entitled any holder to claim the specified
amount of money from goldsmiths. A depositor who is to make the payments may
now get the money in cash from goldsmiths or pay over the receipt to the creditor.
These receipts were the earlier bank notes. The second stage in the development of
banking thus was the issue of bank notes.
The goldsmiths soon discovered that all the people who had deposited money
with them do not come to withdraw their funds in cash. They found that only a few
persons presented the receipts for encashment during a given period of time. They
also found that most of the money deposited with them was lying idle. At the same
time; they found that they were being constantly requested for loan on good security.
They thought it profitable to lend at least some of the money deposited with them to
the needy persons. This proved quite a profitable business for the_ goldsmiths. They
instead of charging safe keeping charges from the depositors began to give them 5

interest on the money deposited with them. This was the third stage in the
development of banking.
COMMERCIAL BANKING IN PAKISTAN
It was very difficult for Pakistan to build up its own Banking system
immediately after independence without sufficient resources. Following the
announcement of the partition plan in June 1947 there was a haste movement on the
6Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
parts of banks to transfer their funds and accounts across the borders. The banks
having their registered offices in Pakistan were transferred to India. In an effort to
bring about the collapse of the new state by the persecuting an international policy of
withdrawal, the Indian bank offices closed quickly. Those banks, which stayed, were
considering the winding up of their business. By 30th June 1948 the number of
schedule banks in Pakistan declined from mere scratch.
Today there are more than 7000 branches of commercial banks along with an
established network of supplementary financial institutions. All this development in
the banking sector is the result of untiring efforts of four decades.
History of Banking In PakistanThe interesting point which I observed during the span of mine internship was
the historical background of Banking & Financial sector which is the one in which
great improvement and growth is observed since the formation of Pakistan. For
studying the growth of this sector we can divide it into three stages, which are as
follows:
a) Pre-Nationalization Era
b) Nationalization Era
c) Post Nationalization Era
a) Pre Nationalization period
There were only two Muslim banks in Indo Pak before partition; they were
.Habib Bank Ltd. (est. in 1941 at Bombay) & Australia Bank Ltd. (est. In 1944 at
Lahore). All other banks, at that time, were either owned by Hindus or Foreigners.
At the time of partition there were 631 bank branches in area which came
under Pakistani control. But due to blood shed and violence at large scale, mostly
7Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
branches were closed and the disparity can be assessed from the fact that on July
1948 there were 195 branches with deposits of Rs.88 crore (880 million) only. Also a
factor lagging in Pakistani industry was a central bank of its own, by that time
Reserve Bank of India was acting as central bank for both countries and same
currency notes were used in both territories. But Reserve Bank of India was biased
and Set down Pakistan on many occasions such as the issue of funds transfer etc.
In this period drastic steps were taken in government sector for the improvement of
overall position. The private sector also responded to these changes and some very
positive changes were observed. Some of the steps taken by the government in this
regard were as under:
1) Inauguration of State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on 1st July, 1948.
2) Setting up of National Bank of Pakistan in November, 1949 to control the 'jute' export in East Pakistan and to act as agent of SBP.
3) Larger powers were given to SBP through SBP Act (1956) for controlling purposes.
4) Banking Companies Ordinance 1962 for protection and guidance to banks.
5) Establishment of specialized banks, such as ADBP (1952);
a) HBFC (Nov, 1952);
b) P1CIC (Oct, 1957)
c) IDBP (Aug. 1961);
d) NDFC (Jan, 1973).
These were the steps, which built a strong banking sector in Pakistan. This is
also obvious from the facts that by 1973 there were almost 10 foreign banks were
working in Pakistan and all over deposit position was around Rs.2300 crore (23,000
million). A bird eye view of 5 top banks was as given below:

MCB 506 1,640
ABL 145 570
B) NATIONALIZATION PERIODOn January 01, 1974 all Pakistani banks were nationalized through
Nationalization Act 1974. Under this law all Pakistani banks became a public
property. All small banks were merged in bigger banks to create 5 major Pakistani
banks Pakistani banks. These banks were to control by Pakistan Banking Council.
There are still controversies about this act of government as whether it contributed in
success of failure of banks. However the major changes after nationalization were as
follows:
Working of banks was extended to under developed areas.
Market expansion for credit and deposits.
Decrease in service level of bank officers.
Decrease in profitability as well.
However the effect of expansion was enormous and it can also be depicted
with the help of table 2 which shows the deposit & branch positions of different
nationalized banks.

TOTAL 7096 453,362
C) POST NATIONALIZATION ERA In 1990 the government decided to denationalize all the nationalized
institutes. Some was also suggested in banking sector. For this purpose,
amendments were made to Nationalization Act 1974 and two nationalized banks
were privatized. Along with this a permission to open banks in private sector was
also granted. The rules regarding establishment of new banks and for incoming
foreign banks were also relaxed.
The- privatized banks are;
a) MCB taken up by a private group in April, 1991
b) ABL taken up by its own employees in September, 1991.
c) UBL taken up by UAE party in 2002.
d) December 29, 2003 HBL was taken by AKFED
After these changes a large number of private and foreign banks started their
operations in Pakistan and the present status can be seen from the following figure:

HBL established operations in Pakistan in 1947 and moved its head office to
Karachi. Our first international branch was established in Colombo, Sri Lanka in
1951 and Habib Bank Plaza was built in 1972 to commemorate the bank’s 25th
Anniversary. With a domestic market share of over 40%, HBL was nationalized in
1974 and it continued to dominate the commercial banking sector with a major

SWOT analysisStrengths
Strength can be defined as an area where a company is best at doing
something or a feature that puts the company at an advantage in comparison to its
competitors. HBL enjoys the following strengths:
22Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
HABIB BANK is a well established bank enjoying long history of over 65 years
of experience and profitable operation.
HBL is the largest private bank in Pakistan now and people trust is very high.
It has the largest branch network among private banks of Pakistan.
HBL has been very effective in controlling costs as it successfully restructured
itself after its privatization. During this process more than 1,600 employees
were relieved under a golden handshake scheme and 110 branches were
closed.
Excellent branches appearance gives an edge to HBL over other banks. The
branches are well furnished even in less developed areas where other banks’
branches give a poor view.
HBL has the ability to bring innovative products and services like personalized
service, electronic funds Transfer, sophisticated financial products such as
electronic banking, auto-teller machines and evening banking.
The Bank’s Rupee Traveler Cheques have been market leaders for the past
six years.
HBL’s car to car financing scheme is unique in auto loan segment.
Habib bank is an internationally recognized name in banking services and
products.
HBL has forged strategic alliances with international banks for expanding its
network further, both locally and internationally.
Weaknesses
A weakness is defined as an area in an organization where the organization is not as
good at doing something as its competitors or a thing which an organization lacks
thus putting the organization at disadvantage in comparison to its competitors.
Based on the above definition, HBL has the following weaknesses.
23Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
Lack of communication between bank and customers about terms and
condition of products and services. Like centralization of cheque book issuing
process.
Employees at branch level are not properly motivated to work by heart. They
take the all routine activities as a boring job.
Most of the employees lack managerial training as they are not properly
educated. Due to seniority, they have moved up on the hierarchy line to
Grade-I, II or III positions having hardly bachelor degrees. This type of senior
staff cannot apply the modern and innovative techniques of management in
decision making.
Mission of HBL is not well defined.
Though HBL is second largest bank in Pakistan, yet the fact remains that it is
not market leader as NBP. Its total assets are always less than NBP total
assets.
Now as it is a privatize bank that is why GOVERNAMENT support to HBL
decreased as it was in past
Opportunities
An opportunity can be defined as a change in external environment which if properly
exploited with the organizational strengths will result in enhanced sales, market
share, or income. Using its strengths, HBL can avail the following opportunities.
Opportunities require explanation therefore I have used headings instead of arrows
24Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
E-Banking
Generally speaking, three factors, quickness, easiness and cheapness have become
the catchwords for the competitiveness and usefulness of all the business
operations. Particularly it is commonplace today to say that banking is undergoing a
radical transformation. The symptoms are new products, new players, new channels
etc. This transformation is taking place across all sectors of the banking industry.
That is why Habib bank urgently needs to improve their ability, to think strategically
about IT investments. Only those banks that use their technology resources
effectively have the opportunity to secure real competitive advantage in this fast-
changing industry through real product or service differentiation.
High mark up rates
Of late markup rates have increased considerably. Present rates are 4% above
KIBOR i.e. 16% appx. High markup rate has decreased the interest of people in
loaning from from banks. Habib bank can increase its income by offering loan at
lower interest rate than other banks.
ONLINE BANKING
It is doing banking transactions through our home P.C. The banks that do business
through net have Websites. The customer clicks into the Website and gets the
history of the bank. Then he can demand the necessary application form through the
net. He fills in the form and passes it on to the bank. The Online banking is fast
gaining ground in Pakistan. Some software companies are also offering network-
banking facilities. So Habib bank should focus heavily on providing online banking
faculties to its customers. Currently it is doing the same.
CORPORATE BANKING TERMINAL (CBT)
25Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
Large corporate customers can log into the bank's database and have access to
their accounts/transactions from their business houses. This facility has still not been
started for customers in Pakistan. So Habib can focus on that.
AUTOMATIC TELLER MACHINE (ATM)
This system is known as "Any Time Money" because it allows customers who have
an ATM card to withdraw money at any time from the bank without interacting with
human teller. Since the ATM machine can be installed anywhere like petrol bunks,
markets, railway stations etc, and can well be linked to the main computer. It allows
customers to transact with the bank 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. They allow
the customers to transfer money to and from accounts to view account information,
to receive cash. It can also be used to deposit cheques and cash into the
accounts. No bank in Pakistan is offering this service currently. So an opportunity
exists for Habib bank to differentiate.
Rate of return
The range and choice of products available & offered by the commercial banks is
limited. Rates of Return / Profits on Deposits are so low and unattractive that very
limited options are available to the depositors. They do not match the current rate of
inflation. HBL differentiate and increase it’s deposit by offering attractive rate of
return on deposits.
Threats
Threat can be defined as a change in external environment which if not met with
proper strategies will result in loss of revenues, market share, or income. In the
context of HBL’s external environment, the following potential threats exist:26
Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
Other private commercial bank with sound profitability is also a threat to HBL
e.g. UBL, Alfalah, MCB etc
The Rupee Travelers Cheque (RTC) sales volumes may be affected on
account of regulatory restriction imposed by SBP on issuance of large value
denominations.
For the last of 2 to 3 years, Pakistan is facing economic and political instability
which is a big threat.
Foreign banks are flourishing in field of consumer financing.
Afghan war and Iraq war has a deep effect on the economy of Pakistan, which
has affected HBL.
Increased regulations from State Bank of Pakistan may affect its business.

I) NOTICE BY CUSTOMER
The banker closes the account of the customer on the application of the customer for
closing his account.
II) DEATH OF CUSTOMER
On death of his customer, the bank must stop payment on cheques drawn on him by
the deceased customer because the death revokes his authority to pay such cheque.
The heirs or the executors of the deceased customer are not authorized to operate
on the account; it can act only in accordance with provisions mentioned in the letter
of probate issued by a competent courts.
III) CUSTOMER’S INSANITY
If the customer becomes insane or mental it terminates the banker’s authority to act
as his customer’s agent. Since the banker customer relationship comes to end, in
such as situation, it is usually considered that the banker’s authority to pay his
customer’s cheques is revoked by notice of insanity. However, the bankers treat their

operation) assigned me the duty of checking the files of previously opened accounts
for any type of discrepancies like utility bill or service certificate of the account holder
is attached or not and checking stamps and signature of the staff etc. It was because

application forms were having discrepancies of different types. This turns out to be
very informative experience for me. Deposits are considered as lifeblood for any
bank to survive. I came to know about the procedure and different types of deposits
that customers can maintain in HBL, return rates that a customer can get and other
terms and conditions of each type of account. As far as checking the old files are
concern it seems boring but from my point of view it was very informative. The
learning I got while doing this job would never be easy to get otherwise.
(2) Mr. Rizwan Ashraf Khan assigned us another task. State bank of Pakistan has
instructed all the banks in Pakistan to make sure availability of computerized national
identity cards of all the account holders. We were given a list of accounts from which
CNIC was required and preprinted letters. Our task was to take the information from
accounts like Name, Address and Account type by entering the account number in
the system and then printing that information on one corner of the letters. This also
turns out to be a very informative experience for me. I learn and get a chance to

updating account information on their computer system Simex. Like account holder’s
name, address, CNIC number etc. In case of any problem I was consulting it with
Mr. Muhammad Rizwan Ashraf. This task gave me more chances to learn about the
computer system of HBL and also I can proudly say that I have my own share of
working in computerizing HBL’s record.

Ratio Analysis of the HBL:
81Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
“An index that relates two accounting numbers and is obtained by dividing one
number by other”
Ratio Analysis is an important and age-old technique of financial analysis. It
simplifies the comprehension of financial statements. Ratios tell the whole story of
changes in the financial condition of business. It provides data fro inter firm
comparison. Ratios highlight the factors associated with successful and unsuccessful
firm. They also reveal strong firms and weak firms, over- valued and under valued
firms. It helps in Planning and forecasting. Ratios can assist management, in its
basic functions of forecasting, planning, co-ordination, control and communication.
Ratio analysis also makes possible comparison of the performance of different
divisions of the firm. The ratios are helpful in decision about their efficiency of
otherwise in the past and likely performance in future. Ratios also help in Investment
decisions in the investors and lending decisions in the case of bankers etc.
Following are the main types of ratios that I am going to calculate in this report to
compare and highlight the financial performance of Habib bank in 2010 with 2009.

82Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
Interpretation: The past two years data shows an improvement in the return on equity which is a
positive sign. The Bank should have to continue its policies. By observing the
audited account I found that this improvement is due to increase in the Net profit
which is good sign.

Recommendations91
Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
As we seen from the previous analysis of the financial statements I have realized
that that Habib Bank is performing very well since its inception. It is quite difficult to
give suggestion to improve the banking conditions Habib Bank Limited. As we know
that nothing is perfect, there is always a room for improvement, so I will recommend
following suggestions for HBL:
Employees Training programmes must be introduced on continuous
basis so that Employees have understanding with the latest
developments especially with the customers.
Bank should introduced incentive plans for employees on regular basis
so that if employees may work whole heartedly for the welfare of their
organization. While giving incentives qualification, work, experience,
hard work and such other factors must be considered.
Mismanagement of resources must be avoided as much as possible as
it decreases profit but also discourage hard worker and honest
employees.
Fresh graduates must be recruited. As the combination of Experienced
and fresh can produce better results and it will improve the efficiency of
management.
Habib Bank is going towards mobile banking but the problem is that a
common client has no idea of its usage due to lack of marketing. I
think that a proper marketing programme must be launched for client’s
awareness.
Banks different schemes must be conveyed to the targeted customers
so that to have a reasonable share in market.
Bank should help the society by providing interest free loans to the
Talented Students.
92Hailey College of Commerce University of the Punjab Lahore.
Internship Report
Online Banking should be introduced in all the branches.
To motivate the employees their remuneration / salaries should be
made at par with top tier Banks.
Aggressive publicity campaign must be introduced through press and
Electronic media for new products and scheme by initiating vigorous
marketing policy.
Bank should adopt such an induction plan that when a customer opens
his account with the bank he should be supplied with a booklet which
enables him to know the procedure of filing the cheques, pay-in-slip
etc. It will save a lot of time of the bank staff afterward during the
conduct of the account of that customer.
The attitude of the bankers with all of their customers is not the same;
they pay more attention and good service to some of the customers
and neglect a major portion of them. Some of the customers approach
to the bank officials and get their work done before others; it is not a
good practice. All the customers should be treated equally.
HBL should increase its communication with customers about the
terms and conditions of its different products and services.
