Executive Summary

Bank is a financial institution that receives, collects, transfers, pays, exchanges lends, invests, or safeguards money for its customers. Banking is the business of providing financial services to the private individuals, corporations, government agencies and business and industries. The main service of a bank is mobilizing deposits and lending these to those people to finance their consumption or business activities. Banks also render services like issue of letter of credit and guarantee, remittance or money, collection of utility bills, underwriting of capital issues, portfolio management as well as locker’s services and custodian of valuables. Internet banking is the practice of making bank transactions or paying bills via the Internet. Thanks to technology, and the Internet in particular, we no longer have to leave the house. We can shop online, communicate online, and now, we can even do our banking online. Internet banking allows us to make deposits, withdrawals and pay bills all with the click of a mouse. It doesn't get much more convenient than that the benefits are many.

Janata Bank Limited is a state owned commercial bank with numerous branches spreading all over Bangladesh and is catering the need of the mass business people. It was corporatized on 15th November 2007. Janata Bank was born with a new concept of purposeful banking sub serving the growing and diversified financial needs of planned economic development of the country. Janata Bank Limited is playing the most significant role in collecting foreign remittance from different countries and transfers the currency in BDT to the destined location.

Janata Bank Limited is one of the largest and leading public commercial bank of Bangladesh. After completion of core and major courses, at the final semester I have completed my internship in Janata bank limited. I worked in Janata bank, Khilkhet branch. I worked with some officers and departments to gather experience and practical knowledge. I also worked with customers to get the idea about real scenario of banking in practical life. On basis of my practical experience and theoretical knowledge I prepared the internship report on ‘‘Internet Banking Services of Janata Bank Limited.” This report has been prepared on basis of both primary and secondary data. For completing this report I have collected necessary information to assess the Internet Banking system of JBL. I collected secondary data from various sources like published materials such as annual reports, web sites, web reports etc.

(7)

The report can be divided in to two parts. First, is the organization part and second is the project or research part. In this report, I have arranged the data in such a way that, the results have reached a desired destination of understanding.

The online banking services and internet banking services are described along with the services availed by JBL. Besides that the current problem and risk of online banking sector is also discussed throughout the report. The position of Janata Bank Ltd in online banking sector with its growth pattern is also discussed here. At the end of the study some suggestions have been made by analysing current internal and external situations.

CHAPTER: ONE

INTRODUCTION

(14)

1.1 Introduction of the Topic

In the present world money is circulated all over the globe. Globalization, technological advances and other factors money is circulating unimaginably .Financial Institutions mainly banks play a pivotal role in matching a depositor and lenders and channeling money and making the economy more efficient. Although the history of Banking goes back to the 14th century in Europe but Banks are now everywhere. Banks in Bangladesh play a significant role compared to other financial Institutions.

However the competition in the banking industry has intensified more than ever before. Global financial crisis, stock market crash, recessions and other factors affected the banking industry. So banks should position themselves at a unique place in the minds of the customers by offering attractive offers such as higher interest rates or by offering superior service to the customers. Services include financial advice, flexible rates or dates of payment, portfolio management etc.

Internet banking is a service offered to the customers which includes viewing the balances on accounts, checking the transactions, downloading useful information, transfer of funds, paying third parties, making loan applications etc. from a secured website of the bank. Internet banking has opened up a new field of competition for banks. To operate internet an individual needs the customer number and password. Internet banking has started in the 1980s but it is relatively a new concept in Bangladesh.

Internet banking is the practice of handling all the bank transactions through internet. We are blessed with such unique technologies where all our works gets completed within seconds. Internet Banking is one of such technologies. With the help of internet banking, we can deposit and withdraw amount our self directly to our account, make all kinds of bill payments, tax payments etc. We can pay our bills like telephone, mobile, credit cards etc. through internet just by once registering with our bank. After making registration, we can pay our bills as and when required. Internet banking allow us to access our account, so that we can know instantly which amount is credited or debited in our bank account which in turn will help to solve our issues if any. It is an easier way to transfer amount to another account to which we have to make payment to the party. When we apply for internet banking, bank provides us with login id and password. The password provided by the bank should be

(15)

changed immediately and should not be given to anybody else. The password should be alpha-numeric and should be changed on frequent basis. This information must be kept at utmost secret, as the password can be hacked by any person.

The Internet has provided a new and inexpensive channel for banks to reach out to their customers. It allows customers to access banks’ facilities round the clock and 7 days a week. It also allows customers to access these facilities from remote sites/home etc. However, all these capabilities come with a price. The highly unregulated Internet provides a less than secure environment for the banks to interface. The diversity in computer, communication and software technologies used by the banks vastly increases the challenges facing the internet bankers.

Internet banking isn't out to change our money habits. Instead, it uses today's computer technology to give us the option of bypassing the time-consuming, paper-based aspects of traditional banking in order to manage our finances more quickly and efficiently. The advent of the Internet and the popularity of personal computers presented both an opportunity and a challenge for the banking industry. For years, financial institutions have used powerful computer networks to automate millions of daily transactions; today, often the only paper record is the customer's receipt at the point of sale. Now that its customers are connected to the Internet via personal computers, banks envision similar economic advantages by adapting those same internal electronic processes to home use. Banks point of view internet banking is as a powerful "value added" tool to attract and retain new customers while helping to eliminate costly paper handling and teller interactions in an increasingly competitive banking environment. Internet banking or Internet banking allows customers to conduct financial transactions on a secure website operated by their retail or virtual bank, credit union or building society.

(20)

1.8 Literature Review

1.8.1 Internet Banking

A system allowing individuals to perform banking activities at home via the internet is internet banking. Some internet banks are traditional banks which also offer internet banking, while others are internet only and have no physical presence. Internet banking through traditional banks enables customers to perform all routine transactions, such as account transfers, balance inquiries, bill payments, and stop-payment requests, and some even offer internet loan and credit card applications. Account information can be accessed anytime, day or night, and can be done from anywhere. A few internet banks update information in real-time, while others do it daily. Once information has been entered, it doesn't need to be re-entered for similar subsequent checks, and future payments can be scheduled to occur automatically. Many banks allow for file transfer between their program and popular accounting software packages, to simplify record keeping. Despite the advantages, there are a few drawbacks. It does take some time to set up and get used to an internet account. Also, some banks only offer internet banking in a limited area. In addition, when an account holder pays internet, he/she may have to put in a check request as much as two weeks before the payment is due, but the bank may withdraw the money from the account the day that request is received, meaning the person has lost up to two weeks of interest on that payment. Internet-only banks have a few additional drawbacks: an account holder has to mail in deposits (other than direct deposits), and some services that traditional banks offer are difficult or impossible for internet-only banks to offer, such as traveler's checks and cashier's checks.

1.8.2 Benefits of internet banking

Let’s start off with the advantages of internet banking. First and foremost, internet banking is very convenient. It will allow you to pay your bills and make transactions anytime during the day and the week. The bank will never close because you can access it through your laptop or computer. So, no matter in which country you are anywhere in the world, you can go internet and handle your finances.

(21)

Secondly, internet banking is very fast, effective and efficient. Over the Internet, you can make transactions that are typically executed and performed at a much faster pace than at ATM’s. Internet banking services also give you the option of handling several different bank accounts from one site itself.

- Pay bills

- Switch money from one account to the other

- Keeping up to date with all of your latest cheque payments etc.

And doing all of the other things people does at banks in the comfort of their own home

Most internet banking sites are compatible with programs like Microsoft Money and Quicken, which makes management of assets more effective

1.8.3 Common Internet Banking Services:

Banking transactions can range from something as basic as a retail account balance inquiry to a large business-to-business funds transfer. On line banking services, like those delivered through other delivery channels, are typically classified based on the type of customer they support. The following table lists some of the common retail on line banking services offered by banks are as follows:

• Account management

• Bill payment and presentment • New account opening

• Investment/Brokerage services • Loan application and approval • Business-to-business payments

1.8.4 Internet Banking Components

On line banking systems can vary significantly in their configuration depending on a number of factors. Banks should choose their internet banking system configuration, including outsourcing relationships, based on four factors:

(22)

• Strategic objectives for on line banking;

• Scope, scale, and complexity of equipment, systems, and activities; • Technology expertise; and

• Security and internal control requirements.

Banks may choose to support their on line banking services internally. Alternatively, Banks can outsource any aspect of their on line banking systems to third parties. The following entities could provide or host (i.e., allow applications to reside on their servers) on line banking-related services for banks:

• Another financial institution, • Internet service provider,

• Internet banking software vendor or processor, • Core banking vendor or processor,

• Managed security service provider, • Bill payment provider,

• Credit bureau, and • Credit scoring company.

1.8.5 Required Physical Infrastructure for Internet Banking

Internet: The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope that are linked by a broad array of electronic and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast array of information resources and services, most notably the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the infrastructure to support electronic mail.

Intranet: An intranet is a private computer network that uses Internet Protocol technologies to securely share any part of an organization's information or network operating system within that organization. The term is used in contrast to internet, a network between organizations, and instead refers to a network within an organization. Sometimes the term

(23)

refers only to the organization's internal website, but may be a more extensive part of the organization's information technology infrastructure. It may host multiple private websites and constitute an important component and focal point of internal communication and collaboration.

Hardware: The essential hardware required to build a complete internet banking system includes:  Personal Computers  Servers  Routers  Firewalls  Modems  Switches

 POS (Point of Sale) Terminals

 ATM (Automated Teller Machines) booths

Software: For conducting internet banking operations several software are now available such as FLEXCUBE, a banking software which enables banks to process and store banking transaction data and making payments through a dedicated client-server network. Different banks use different types of software depending on the cost and other factors.

1.8.6 Present Scenario of Internet Banking in Bangladesh

The commercial banking system dominates Bangladesh's financial sector. Bangladesh Bank is the Central Bank of Bangladesh and the chief regulatory authority in the sector. The banking sector of Bangladesh comprises four categories of scheduled banks. These are state-owned commercial banks (SCBs), state-state-owned development finance institutions (DFIs), private commercial banks (PCBs) and foreign commercial banks (FCBs). Internet Banking in Bangladesh is yet to develop according to international standard. At present, several private commercial banks (PCBs) and foreign commercial banks (FCBs) offer limited services of

(24)

telephone banking, internet banking facilities working within the branches of individual bank in a closed network environment. As a part of stepping towards internet-banking, the FCBs have played the pioneering role with adoption of modern technology in retail banking during the early 1990s whereas the state-owned commercial banks (SCBs) and PCBs came forward with such services in a limited scale during the late 1990s. Moreover, the banking industry as a whole, except for the four specialized banks (SBs), rushed to offer technology based banking services during the middle of the current decade. The existing form of e-banking that satisfies customer demand in banking activities electronically throughout the world are PC banking or PC home banking that include internet banking, internet banking, mobile banking, and telephone banking.

1.8.7 Users of Internet Banking over seven years in Bangladesh

Figure: Internet user percentage of total population

From the figure we see that the Internet users of our country are increasing every year. After connecting with the information superhighway, the total country is connected by fiber optic backbone; certainly it is a milestone for infrastructure of implementing internet banking in Bangladesh. In Bangladesh most of the banking hardware is available for internet banking is

0,00% 5,00% 10,00% 15,00% 20,00% 25,00% 30,00% 35,00% 40,00% 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015

Internet user

Internet user

(25)

entirely procured from foreign origins with a local distributor. Internet banking operation hardware includes; servers, workstation, printers, scanner ATM, POS terminals, etc. and networking hardware includes switch, Router, V-SAT connectivity etc. The software support for internet banking, i.e. FLEXCUBE is available in Bangladesh. Again Bangladesh Government is working on the copyright law and the preservation of intellectual property act. After the successful implementation of all these policies and strategies we are expecting that more than 50% of the banks will be offering internet banking facilities which is now 12% only.

CHAPTER: TWO

ORGANIZATIONAL

(27)

2.1 Historical Background

With the emergence of Bangladesh as an independent, sovereign state in 1971 after a devastating nine month war against the West Pakistani occupation army, a war, full of blood and tears, trauma and pain of millions of our beloved ones, the legacy of rebuilding the already broken financial base of the country was felt as an urgent call of the day against a collapsed economic reality of a newly born state.

In this backdrop, in order to rebuild the country’s economy, measures had been taken to merge a number of banks previously operated in this region and make new banks and this initiatives led to formation of Janata Bank in 1972 by combining the erstwhile United Bank Limited and Union Bank Limited under the Banks Nationalization Order (President’s Order No. 26) of 1972.In 15 November, 2007 Janata Bank got registered with the Joint Stock of Registrars and restructured it as a public limited company with the name Janata Bank Limited.

Including 4 overseas branches in United Arab Emirates Janata Bank runs its business with 906 branches across the country having a big family of around 14,244 (As on 01.05.2015) employees with its head office located at JanataBhaban at Motijheel C/A, the heart of the capital city, Dhaka.At the end of 2014 the Bank held Deposit BDT 5,16,010 million, Advance BDT 3,19,773 million with Authorized capital BDT 30,000 million and Paid-up Capital BDT 19,140 million.

Janata Bank Limited, a corporate body trusted over the years, the 2nd largest (in respect of Deposits/Assets) commercial bank in Bangladesh, has been playing pivotal role in overall financial activities of the country and is possessing a long heritage of discharging laudable services to the society since her embankment immediately after the emergence of this verdant rich alluvial soil as a sovereign, independent state.

The contribution of the Bank to the national economy and social reform has set standard bar so high that others in this business can’t help aspire touching the benchmark of success earned by JBL. More so a matter of great honor is that the contribution, commitment and success of the Bank have been recognized with a number of prestigious awards by national and international organizations of repute.

2.9 SWOT Analysis of JBL

Each and every organization should be aware of their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This analysis is known as SWOT analysis. The central purpose of SWOT analysis is to identify strategies that fit or match a company’s resources and capabilities according to the demand of environment in which company operates. So the strategic alternatives generated by a SWOT analysis should be built on company’s strengths in order to exploit opportunities and counter threats and to correct weaknesses.

SWOT analysis explains environment of an organization in two broad ways. They are: a) Internal Environment Analysis: It includes strengths and weaknesses.

b) External Environment Analysis: It includes opportunities and threats.

During my internship period in Janata Bank I have found some aspects relating to the Bank’s strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats, which I think, affect the bank’s performance. These are given below:

Strengths

 As a large bank, it has qualified and experienced manpower.  Branch location is suitable for business.

 Bank’s assets position is quite satisfactory and now there is no fund crisis.

 Bank has requisite wealth to sustain in the various challenges of market economy  Being a nationalized banking organization, it always gets government support in all

of its operations.

Weakness

 As many employers retired from the bank, there is a crisis for manpower in the bank.  Bureaucrat official process hampered the daily internal workflow.

 Lack of motivation for the workers.  Low salary structure for the employees.

(39)

Opportunities

 Expansion of new investment areas.

 Scope for automation will open a big door of opportunity.  In case of fund crisis Janata Bank gets government support.  The bank undertakes need-based training program.

Threats

 Newly developed privatized and foreign banks.

 Facing a great competition with other commercial banks and financial institutions.  Loan recovery systems are very weak.

(46)

CDMS

As core deposit is the low cost deposit and nucleus of the financial base of any bank, JBL aims to strengthen core deposit procurement activities for which a web based software ‘Core Deposit Monitoring System’ (CDMS) has been crafted. Through this system, branches are being made to input their data on core deposit on the month ending working day. This system has enabled instant monitoring of core deposit collection of all branches, area and divisional offices and all departments of head office as well.

Personnel Management Information System (PMIS)

Janata bank Limited has introduced a Web-based and Real Time Personnel Management Information System (PMIS) which contains all the basic and necessary information of employees. All HR related functions are executed through some specific built-in modules using the database of PMIS.

3.4 Internet Banking Security of JBL

To keep security of customer JBL and all banks follow the curricular, as like it’s one of the biggest attractions of Internet as an electronic medium is its openness and Freedom. It is a public domain and there is no restriction on who can use it as long as one adheres to its technical parameters. This has also given rise to concerns over the Security of data and information transfer and privacy. These concerns are common to any network including closed user group networks. . It will be sufficient to say here that the key components of such concern are,

(I) Authentication, viz., assurance of identity of the person in deal,

(ii) Authorization, viz., a party doing a transaction is authorized to do so, (iii) The privacy or confidentiality of data, information relating to any deal, (iv) Data integrity, viz., assurance that the data has not been altered and,

(v) Non repudiation, viz., a party to the deal cannot deny that it Originated the communication or database.

3.5 Types of risks associated in Internet banking of JBL.

A major driving force behind the rapid spread of internet banking all over the world is its acceptance as an extremely cost effective delivery channel of banking services as compared to other existing channels and its applying same condition in Bangladesh. However, Internet is not an unmixed blessing to the banking sector. Along with reduction in cost of transactions, it has also brought about a new orientation to risks and even new forms of risks to which banks conducting o-banking expose themselves. Regulators and supervisors all over the world are concerned that while banks should remain efficient and cost effective, they must be conscious of different types of risks this form of banking entails and have systems in place to manage the same. An important and distinctive feature is that technology plays a significant part both as source and tool for control of risks. Because of rapid changes in information

(52)

technology, there is no finality either in the types of risks or their control measures. Both evolve continuously. The thrust of regulatory action in risk control has been to identify risks in broad terms and to ensure that banks have minimum systems in place to address the same and that such systems are reviewed on a continuous basis in keeping with changes in technology. In the following paragraphs a generic set of risks are discussed as the basis for formulating general risk control guidelines, which this Group will address.

3.5(1) Operational risk:

Operational risk, also referred to as transactional risk is the most common form of risk associated with I-banking. It takes the form of inaccurate processing of transactions, non-enforceability of contracts, compromises in data integrity, data privacy and confidentiality, unauthorized access / intrusion to bank’s systems and transactions etc. Such risks can arise out of weaknesses in design, implementation and monitoring of banks’ information system. Besides inadequacies in technology, human factors like negligence by customers and employees, fraudulent activity of employees and crackers / hackers etc. can become potential source of operational risk. Often there is thin line of difference between operational risk and security risk and both terminologies are used interchangeably.

3.5(2) Security risk:

Internet is a public network of computers which facilitates flow of data / information and to which there is unrestricted access. Banks using this medium for financial transactions must, therefore, have proper technology and systems in place to build a secured environment for such transactions.Security risk arises on account of unauthorized access to a bank’s critical information stores like accounting system, risk management system, portfolio management system, etc. A breach of security could result in direct financial loss to the bank. For example, hackers operating via the Internet could access, retrieve and use confidential customer information and also can implant virus. This may result in loss of data, theft of or tampering with customer information, disabling of a significant portion of bank’s internal computer system thus denying service, cost of repairing these etc. Other related risks are loss of reputation, infringing customers’ privacy and its legal implications etc. Thus, access control is of paramount importance. Controlling access to banks’ system has become more complex

(53)

could emanate from any source and from anywhere in the world with or without criminal intent. Attackers could be hackers, unscrupulous vendors, disgruntled employees or even pure thrill seekers. Also, in a networked environment the security is limited to its weakest link. It is therefore, necessary that banks critically assess all interrelated systems and have access control measures in place in each of them.

In addition to external attacks banks are exposed to security risk from internal sources e.g. employee fraud. Employees being familiar with different systems and their weaknesses become potential security threats in a loosely controlled environment. They can manage to acquire the authentication data in order to access the customer accounts causing losses to the bank.

Unless specifically protected, all data / information transfer over the Internet can be monitored or read by unauthorized persons. There are programs such as ‘sniffers’ which can be set up at web servers or other critical locations to collect data like account numbers, passwords, account and credit card numbers. Data privacy and confidentiality issues are relevant even when data is not being transferred over the net.

Data residing in web servers or even banks’ internal systems are susceptible to Corruption if not properly isolated through firewalls from Internet.

The risk of data alteration, intentionally or unintentionally, but unauthorized is real in a networked environment, both when data is being transmitted or stored. Proper access control and technological tools to ensure data integrity is of utmost importance to banks. Another important aspect is whether the systems are in place to quickly detect any such alteration and set the alert.

Identity of the person making a request for a service or a transaction as a customer is crucial to legal validity of a transaction and is a source of risk to a bank. A computer connected to Internet is identified by its IP (Internet Protocol) address. There are methods available to masquerade one computer as another, commonly known as ‘IP Spoofing’. Likewise user identity can be misrepresented. Hence, authentication control is an essential security step in any e-banking system

(54)

3.5(3) Money laundering risk

As Internet banking transactions are conducted remotely banks may find it difficult to apply traditional method for detecting and preventing undesirable criminal activities. Application of money laundering rules may also be inappropriate for some forms of electronic payments. Thus banks expose themselves to the money laundering risk. This may result in legal sanctions for non-compliance with “know your customer” laws.To avoid this, banks need to design proper customer identification and screening techniques, develop audit trails, and conduct periodic compliance reviews, frame policies and procedures to spot and report suspicious activities in Internet transactions

3.5(4) Liquidity Risk

Arises out of a bank’s inability to meet its obligations when they become due without incurring unacceptable losses, even though the bank may ultimately be able to meet its obligations. It is important for a bank engaged in electronic money transfer activities that it ensures that funds are adequate to cover redemption and settlement demands at any particular time. Failure to do so, besides exposing the bank to liquidity risk, may even give rise to legal action and reputational risk.

3.5(5) Credit risk

Is the risk that a counter party will not settle an obligation for full value, either when due or at any time thereafter. Banks may not be able to properly evaluate

The credit worthiness of the customer while extending credit through remote banking procedures, which could enhance the credit risk. Presently, banks generally deal with more familiar customer base. Facility of electronic bill payment in Internet banking may cause credit risk if a third party intermediary fails to carry out its obligations with respect to payment. Proper evaluation of the creditworthiness of a customer and audit of lending process are a must to avoid such risk.
