Economic outlook

Pakistan economy is on the constant growth trajectory achieving


highest growth level in the last five years, however, the build up
of inflationary pressures are posing some concern. The real GDP
growth rate for the FY05 is being projected at
7.4% - 7.8% per annum, as against 6.6% per annum target. This
growth is mainly on the back of bumper cotton and wheat crops.
The high pace of monetary expansion, led by increasing demand
for credit by the private sector and coupled with shortage of
liquidity has fueled inflationary trends that have resulted in a

Conclusions

efficient employees. Due to its growth in online branch system,
it has bright future in Financial Organizations.

SUGGESTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

• At the end of every report, it needs suggestions and


recommendations. According to my judgment the
following are the suggestions and recommendations.

• As UBL is expending with it network 1058 branches, it


should be beneficial for the bank to computerized all the
branches and earn more than before.

• The proportion of performance related work should be


more than the proportion of deposits in promotions.

• This strategy should be developing that decentralized


means some authority given the branches.

• UBL should appoint the BDO’s at least hub level with the
help of this strategy UBL can increase it deposits.

• It should be necessary for the UBL that for the
old employees training session for well grooming,
because even they don’t know that how to deal with new
technology.

• UBL should be appoint at least one HR officer at hub


level for dealing HR related work.

• As UBL have well in IT sections, I think they can develop


their own ATM network as M.net and 1 link.

• The ATM machine is some times in small cities remain


disturb that’s why
customer become
dissatisfied, if
UBL have its own
network related
ATM than this
problem should
solve.
