Prefatory
History of Bank
The word bank comes from the Italian word Banco or Banque. Banco or Basque means a bench. In
early stage money transaction activities was generally done by sitting on the benches in a market. Some
body says the word bank comes from the German word bank that means the joint stock fund. But now
11
the
beginning of 1971, there were 1130 branches of 12 banks in operation in East Pakistan. The
foundation of independent banking system in Bangladesh was laid through the establishment of
the Bangladesh Bank in 1972 by the Presidential Order No. 127of 1972 (which took effect on
th
16 December, (1971). Through the Order, the eastern branch of the former State Bank of
Pakistan at Dhaka was renamed as the Bangladesh Bank as a full-fledged office of the central
bank of Bangladesh and the entire undertaking of the State Bank of Pakistan in, and in relation to
Bangladesh has been delivered to the Bank.
Bangladesh Bank has been entrusted whit all of the traditional central banking functions including
the sole responsibilities of issuing currency, Keeping the reserves, formulating and managing the
monetary and credit policy, regulating the banking system, stabilizing domestic and external
monetary value, preserving the par value of Bangladesh Taka, fostering economic growth and
development and the development of the countrys market.
The Bangladesh Banks (Nationalization) Order enacted in 1972 nationalized all banks except
foreign ones. Six nationalized banks were formed through merging the existing banks of the
period.
The rate of growth and development of banking sector in the country was extremely slow until
1983 when the government allowed to establish private banks and started denationalization
process: initially, the Uttara Bank in the same year and thereafter, the Pubali Bank, and the Rupali
Bank in 1986. Growth pattern of banks during the period 1973-1983.
13
Besides, recent decision of the Government to corporative the remaining three NCBs along with the
initiative to sale the Rupali Bank are bound to usher in changes in the banking sector competitiveness
aspect. Bangladesh Bank has also taken up the task of implementing the Basel II capital accord. Further,
the recent enactment of the Micro-credit Regulatory Authority Act (MRAA) for the regulation of the Micro
Finance Institutions (MFI) has been a major development in the year 2006. Since 1998 CAMEL rating of
banks gradually improved and in 2006 Bangladesh Bank updated this rating model by incorporating the
market risk and the new

Banks Mix

Institutions and the capital market. The Banking sector alone accounts for a substantial share of assets of

To earn interest from borrowers and give depositors the interests get back. The rest are the profit of
the bank.
Credit is a continuous process. Recovery of one credit gives rise to another credit. In this process of
revolving funds, bank earns in the form interest. A bank can invest its fund in many ways. Bank provides
loans and advances to traders, businessmen and industrialists. Moreover, nature of credit may differ in
terms of security requirement, disbursement provision, terms and conditions etc.
Bank often uses loans and advances as an alternative to one another. But academically this concept is
incorrect. Academically advances is the combination such items where loans is a part only. For this credit
section of the banks is known as advance section.
Advance division is heart for any bank. A big portion of income of the SEBL is comes from this advance
division. This income comes from different types of investment of depository money. Investment decision
is the most important which is taken by the management of the SEBL. SEBL advance division plays a vital
role for economical development.

According to the customers, SEBL is the leading provider of financial services identity worldwide.
With its strong corporate image and identity, it has better positioned itself in the minds of the
customers. This image has helped SEBL grab the personal banking sector of Bangladesh very rapidly.
Efficient Performance
It has been seen from customers opinion that SEBL provides hassle-free customer services to its
client comparing to other financial institutions of Bangladesh. Personalized approach to the needs of
customers is its motto.
The selection & recruitment of SEBL emphasizes on having the skilled graduates & postgraduates
who have little or no previous work experience. The logic behind is that SEBL wants to avoid the
problem of 'garbage in & garbage out'. And this type of young & fresh workforce stimulates the whole
working environment of SEBL.
55
Weaknesses
High charges of L/C
Presently SEBL charges same rates for all types of import L/C. But for import L/C of exports-oriented
industry, SEBL should reduce the charge of L/C. As a result, exporter will be benefited and the
country will earn more foreign exchange. The commission often even rises up to 30%.
Diversification
SEBL can pursue a diversification strategy in expanding its current line of business. The management
can consider options of starting merchant banking or diversify it to leasing and insurance. As SEBL is
one of the leading providers of all financial services, in Bangladesh it can also offer these services.
56
Opportunities
Distinct operating procedures
Repayment capacity as assessed by SEBL of individual client helps to decide how much one can
borrow. As the whole lending process is based on a client's repayment capacity, the recovery rate of
DBL is close to 100%. This provides SEBL financial stability & gears up SEBL to be remaining in the
business for the long run.
Experienced Managers
One of the key opportunities for SEBL is its efficient managers. SEBL has employed experienced
managers to facilitate its operation. These managers have already triggered the business for SEBL as
being new in the market.
Huge Population
Bangladesh is a developing country to satisfy the needs of the huge population, a large amount of
investment is required. On the other hand, building EPZ areas and some Govt. policies easing foreign
investment in our country made it attractive to the foreigners to invest in our country. So, SEBL has a
large opportunity here.
El Dorado Program
It is software which enables customers to deposit and withdraw money from any bank with the cheque
or deposit of any other bank. Although a select few has implemented this program, this poses as an
opportunity for SEBL as the number of transactions would drastically increase.
Bigger Market
Although the GDP per head decreased a bit in 2009 from 2008, there is a huge untapped market that
requires loans and intends to deposit also.
57
Threats
Upcoming Banks/Branches
The upcoming private, local, & multinational banks posses serious threats to the existing banking
network of SEBL: it is expected that in the next few years more commercial banks will emerge. If that
happens the intensity of competition will rise further and banks will have to develop strategies to
compete against and win the battle of banks.
Default Loans
The problem of non-performing loans or default loans is very minimum or insignificant. However,
this problem may rise in the future thus; SEBL has to remain vigilant about this problem so that
proactive strategies are taken to minimize this problem.
Industrial Downturn
Bangladesh is economically and political unstable country. Flood, draught, cyclone, and newly added
terrorism have become an identity of our country. Along with inflation, unemployment also creates
industry wide recession. These caused downward pressure on the capital demand for investment.
Financial Crisis
Although people have recovered a bit from the shock, it may still pose as a threat. People are still
hesitant to take loans or even deposit them.

Analysis:
Here I find that among 50 (100%) clients 20 (40%) are very much satisfied with the loan department
of SEBL whereas only 1 (2%) is very dissatisfied with the performances. But average percent is good.
Here we can see that 2 clients are dissatisfied and 1 is very dissatisfied. The reason that he was
dissatisfied was because he wanted more time to pay his installments. But SEBL did not allow this.
Analysis:
Here in the graph we can see BRAC Bank have maximum ATM booths around 120, next we have
DBBL who have total of 65 ATM booths. EBL and SCB have almost equal number of ATM booths.
Mercantile Bank, AB Bank and Dhaka Bank have least ATM booth in different division in
Bangladesh. Surprisingly MTB and UCBL dont have any ATM booth, in order to meet up with
customer requirements they have co-branding with DBBL for providing ATM service.

Recommendations
Banking is service oriented marketing. Its business profit depends on its service quality.
Thats why the authority always should aware about their service quality.
To provide service to the customer it is necessary to have a trained team of an
organization of an institution. For this reason the Bank should recruit more fresh, bright
and energetic person.
Bank should offer Bank is launching Customer Credit Scheme Southeast Bank is
failing to launch this kind of Scheme. The management can undertake such sort of
Schemes and earn more profit.
As soon as possible the Bank should stat more benches in DhakaCity as well as the other
cities of the country.
Now a days world is going very fast. Now most of the Bank opens online customer
service system. So, in order to compete in the world market they should adopt online
Banking system.
The Bank should attempt to enter into the share market by issuing share to capitalize
more money and invest thereafter by expanding the number of branches around the city.
The recruitment process of the Bank is very length an expensive. The bank should select
the employee by reducing the lengthy process.
In general banking department it is necessary to implement modern Banking process
instead of tradition system. The department should be more computerized.
Data base networking is the most modern technology to transfer data from branch to
branch or branch to head office and vice versa. So, they must use this technology in
information technology (IT) department of the Bank.
The loan sanction process should be easier that the clients can feel convenient to take
loan from the Bank.
To make exchange process more prompt the authority should use modern
communication system such as E-mail, Fax, win Fax Internet etc.

Conclusion
The last 3 months was quite intriguing to do my internship at Southeast Bank Limited, Rupnagar
Branch. I found out about the nature of actually working in a professional environment.
Credit policy is a very convenient banking tool for the business world. The value of this service is
immense. It has gathered such a position in the banking sector that people at developed and also
developing counties are very much depended on this service. In Bangladesh credit facilities or loans
started to become very attractive in recent periods. But still lots improvements in services and
facilities have to be made in this department.
The study of the report refers to the fact that people are aware of loan facilities in our country but they
are not fully aware of the services or features of the loan process and its rules and regulations
especially in case of individual or consumer loans. From the study it seems that Southeast Bank
focuses on the corporate sectors for the credit facility. But in case of consumer loans there are lots of
restrictions created by the bank.
Credit Division of Southeast Bank has a very qualified and dedicated group of officers and staffs who
are always trying to provide the best service to the clients. They always monitor the credit in different
sectors and their position. Before providing the loan they analyze whether the loan will be profitable
and whether the client is good enough to repay the loan within the given period of time.
Credit department diversified their loans in different sectors classified by them. Among the sectors
they dont provide any loans in the agricultural side. The reason they showed is that this sector is very
risky and depends on natural climate and they still didnt expand their service in the rural side. They
also didnt provide any loan in the small & cottage industry. The reason is that the return from this
sector is not very good and also the sector is very uncertain. They provide most of the credit facility in
term loan mainly in long-term loans. Return from short-term loan is very good and also proves to be
very safe to finance.
The main competitive advantage SEBL is enjoying that it has online banking where as other local
commercial bank can not yet achieve that advantage. But all the commercial banks are now trying to
achieve this. In this bank the employees are highly motivated by their remunerations and other
