History of Banking

The concept of banking is not a modern concept. This concept had started to evolve in the

Though money had made the human life much easier than before but ancient humans started
to realize the complexities that evolution of money had created in their life. So, in order to
overcome these complexities and the difficulties that were attached with the benefit of money
the concept of banking emerged in the human mind. Earlier the moneylenders and the
landlords perform the banking activities as the informal banks but later the activities of these
people are formalized and the concept of the bank as an institution had emerged.

2. OBJECTIVES

2.1 Studying the chosen organization

Model Purbanchal college affiliated to Purbanchal University have set up Internship Program
under which the students are required to involve in one of the business or any other
organization as interns and prepare internship report through the experience and research
working there. This report is a part of the undergraduate program under Purbanchal
University School of Business which offers management internship to the students pursuing
BBA in the seventh semester. The internship is an eight week program designed to provide
students an opportunity for a meaningful career-related experience in a real organizational
setting before they graduate. It gives the students an opportunity to practice and expand their
skills and knowledge learned in the classroom in substantive work situation and face
organization problems. In addition, it will help the students earn credit and increased
marketability for the permanent job search while learning more about a specific field and
applying classroom knowledge in a corporate environment. This internship program provides
an opportunity to learn in the real work situation and an experience which can help the
students to achieve their goals.

I have chosen Prabhu Bank Limited for my internship as being a management student,
extensive knowledge of a financial intermediary is a must as it is the major mediator in the
financial market who works to provide financial services and ensure global outreach. An
internship consists of an exchange of services for experience between the student and an
organization. Students can also use an internship to determine if they have an interest in a
particular career, create a network of contacts, or gain school credit. Some interns find
permanent, paid employment with the organizations with which they interned. This can be a
significant benefit to the employer as experienced interns often need little or no training when
they begin regular employment. Unlike a trainee program, however, employment at
thecompletion of an internship is not guaranteed.This report is basically a Research internship
(graduation) or dissertation internship, my purpose being the fulfillment of university
participation criteria as well as the need of organizational exposure and acceptance. There is
wider diversification in a commercial bank being a player of financial market and an intern
will not remain confined to a particular subject. Therefore choosing a bank can be perceived

10
financial intermediary who is primarily responsible for the transfer of monetary resources
from the net savers to the net users. It has head office at Anamnagar, Kathmandu and
corporate office at Kalimati, Kathmandu. This bank was chosen for the internship purpose
because it was founded by the key economic players of Nepal and also it is one of the first
class “A” commercial bank to have a successful merger with another class “A” commercial
bank. I had a keen interest on knowing how it worked from the very beginning of its
establishment. I wanted to learn how the different department worked and how the employees
communicated with the customers.

2.2 Objectives of the study


The major objective of internship program is to acquire learning as well as working
experience and gain practical exposure in the real-life working situation. The objective of the
study is to gather practical knowledge regarding banking system and its operations.
Orientation gives us the chance to view those systems and their operations. More precisely
we can identify the objectives of this report as follows:

General objectives

 In partial fulfillment of university participation criteria in internship program.

Specific Objectives

 To be adapted to the real life working environment.

 Develop interpersonal and communicative skills.

 Develop appropriate skills and attitude.

 To study, understand the functioning of the departments.

 To get practical exposure.

4.2.2 Customer Service Department

In the customer service department, I was assigned with the following tasks:

4.2.3 Remittance Department

Prabhu Bank Limited, operating under the guidelines set by The Government of Nepal and
Nepal Rastra Bank, offers one of the safest and the most secured means of money transfer to
Nepal. Remitters can send money to Prabhu bank from any part of the globe through our
correspondent banks, exchange houses and banks in the Middle East and using Himal Remit
and Western Union, our in-house remittance software.

4.2.4 SWIFT Transfer

Prabhu Bank offers fast and reliable money transfer services through SWIFT. Your bank
account with us can be credited with remittance from anywhere in the world. The remitter has
to mention the Prabhu bank’s SWIFT Address and the beneficiary details to transfer money

world, denominated in major currencies, through SWIFT.

15

We have draft drawing arrangement with our correspondent banks in different countries.
Prabhu honors bank drafts on/by various international banks denominated in currencies like
US Dollar, Euro, Great Britain Pound, Japanese Yen, etc.

4.3 Problem Faced during Internship

While carrying out the task assigned by the supervisor, the intern faced different types of
problems. They are as follows:

 Though the instruction and required documents are clearly explained in the account
opening form, even then customers ask those for time to time and reasons for extra
documents that are already stated in back side of the form. So, it is tough to give them
each guideline on filling different types of form as well.
 The accountholder’s asked for the balance and cheque book without bringing the letter of
authority and citizenship with accountholder’s valid signature and account number.
 Some the customer disagreed to accept the charges for account closing and make
argument on this matter for long time. So, it becomes difficult to convince them about the
bank’s charges.
 Customers argue for updating Know Your Customer (KYC) from especially to show
original citizenship.
 After merger customers argued about not giving the information of the merger to them
where the information was given to them about a month ago through notice, newspapers
and media.
 After merger it was also difficult to handle the customers and explain about the changes
in the account number, banks policy, etc.

4.4 Problem Solved during Internship

During the internship period intern faced problem because intern was new to the
organization. The following are the problem solved during the internship period:

 Whenever the customers come up with their problem in CSD, intern is unaware about
the right and accurate information on the subject matter. So intern has to consult with
16
their senior staff to give the information to customers.

 Sometimes intern may give wrong information to the client due to lack of knowledge
of that department in the beginning. At that time, staff immediately correct our
mistake and give the right information.

5.3 Critical analysis of the theoretical concepts relating to practical


experiences in the department

The activities performed in the branch were all new for this intern. Having the enthusiasm to
learn about the activities performed in the bank and participate in the activities performed a
lot was learned and many experiences were gained. The performing of these banking
activities was never an easy task though the learning of the activities and the performance
was made easy due to the effective teaching and training by the supervisor.

20
The analysis of the activities presented by this intern as given below is based on the
experience gained during the performance of the activities and the observations made during
the period of performance.

The analysis of the activities performed in the CSD is given as follows:

The task of dealing with the various natured people is indeed a very difficult task. There are
various types of customers to be dealt in. some customers are very well mannered and co-
operate with the persons in the CSD. They are easy to be dealt with. While some other are of
irritating nature and it seems that they are intentionally in mood to show such behavior. The
employees in the CSD need to be very patient in dealing with such variety of customers.
Same rule applied to the interns performing their job in the department. Regarding the
activities performed as an intern the tasks of CSD seemed to be repetitive in nature. Though
at the beginning these activities seemed interesting things start to become boring as time

passes by. Many small things are to be kept in mind along with the confidentiality of
information of the customers. So, at the beginning interns get confused easily and get track of
the activities as they perform their task for some period of time.

Regarding complaint of the Costumer it seems to say a think compulsorily. Some of the
Complaints made by customer due to the fault of the system. For example, the complaint
regarding the ATM machines result into the technical failure. Another example is the wrong
calculation of period of FD maturity for the interested to be provided to the customer. So in
conclusion it can be said that the activities in the CSD are simple yet challenging and
repetitive yet insensitive these activities deserve proper attention of the employees along with
the satisfaction of demanding nature of the customers.

5.4 Knowledge gain from the work assigned

Working as an intern in Prabhu Bank for two months, I was able to know the
workingprocedure of CSD and Remittance Department of Prabhu Bank. Furthermore, the
internship helped me to gain necessary skills to tackle problems. I not only get exposure to
the professional world but also have been successful to change attitude, and behavior in the
daily life spending. Learning the working culture, general organization environment,
workplace behavior, and other important aspects is the real prize awarded by the internship
21
program to me. Being attached with the specific department of Prabhu Bank, I learned the
following points:
• Various rules of CSD and importance of having every possible document in the operation of
CSD and Remittance Department.
• The importance of being punctual, manage time and being patient.
• Along with customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction also plays a great role in the
success of the bank.
• The need of bringing out all potential to move forward as an effectively and efficient
employee.
• The tough competition of banks for the survival and the tough competition in the banks for
employees as well as getting a job.
• Build up self-confidence.

Many lesson along with these, small and big, were learnt which broadened the knowledge
and brought work maturity in the intern. So, these two months of the internship was the time
where I get the most exposure to what it is like to work in real life than what was learnt in the
classroom. The internship program gave me the experience, which will help to build a
platform and prepare for the future.

6.2 RECOMMENDATIONS

4. 2 General Comments and suggestions to the company


Some recommendations are being put forward on the basis of conclusion through study:
1. Now that the economic condition of the country deteriorating, there is a damages in
slackening of the business and industrial activities. So, the bank should not be interested only
in collecting huge amount of deposit by increasing interest rate only.

23
2. The banks mobilized capital should be made available for investment in productive
enterprise whether the business is of small, medium or large sized. Thus, no bank should
expand its credit to promote economic development more rapidly.
3. There is a service completion among joint venture bank, finance companies and
insurance companies may go to losses. So, the bank should give emphasis on modern
technologies, should be growth service oriented, train the staff, get up to date information
about other bank and high services should be put forward to customers.
4. Employees should be associated whenever possible in discussion with customer and
inspective and other business visit with the objective of developing communication and
familiarization between them and customers. All employees should be provided with
nameplates, which will give them identification and will help customer in knowing them by
name.
5. The bank should grab more opportunities as soon as possible by adopting efficient and
latest market strategies, traditional method should be left behind.
6. Government, NRB and commercial banks should take necessary steps to form and
regulate banking habit of Nepalese people especially people of rural areas.
7. Other than shareholders annual report, the bank should publish and distributed booklets
containing detail information about its activities and performances as well. This help to
maintain harmonious relationship between bank and customers.
