Experience In Pubali Bank Limited As An Intern
One of the modern concepts of economics is financial development. All over the world the financial development has started with the commercial Banking system and the diffusion or scriptural money through the economy. At the very initial stages of financial development of any country, commercial banks play a major role providing financial services to the economy. Banking studies are divided into two categories, they are Theoretical & practical. Co-ordination of theory and practical subjects in the field of Banking studies gets due importance at this moment when the whole are taking preparation to enter into a new Millennium. But in spite of this, we find a gap existing between Theory & practical knowledge. To minimize this gap between Theory & practices, MBA program of Dhaka University has introduced practical orientation in different Banks. It is believed that it brings the students concerned with this program closer to practical area of Financial Institution and projection of knowledge.To fulfill this objective, I have prepared an Internships Report on "Loans & Advances of Pubali Bank Limited”, Nawabpur Branch. During this period, I have gathered various types of banking knowledge from banking experts of respective Bank and tried to apply my academic knowledge as well as personal competence to the best. I have also tried my best to cover all the significant dimension of the topic assigned.
I along with other 10 students go to the Pubali Bank Limited head office situated at Motijheeel and reported to the Senior Officer of Pubali Bank Limited. The Pubali Bank Limited authority cordially received us.
Then each of us was sent to the different branches of Pubali Bank Limited on 10th Octobor, 2006. I was placed in Pubali Bank Limited Nawabpur Branch for field study from 10th Octobor ’06 to 10th January 2007. I reported to Mr. Shym Sundar Banik, Managing Director of the said Branch and briefed something about his branch and promised me to give any kind of information needed. Then I have started to observe the activities held on that branch and I have found the following major functions:
1. General Banking
Various types of deposit A/C, Transfer, Works of Cash Section, Subsidiary Register Day Book, Clean Cash, General Ledger, Remittance (P/O, DD, MT, TT) Bills Department, Clearing House, Pubali Bank Limited General A/C etc.
2. Loans and Advances
General Advances, Industrial loan, rural & micro credit etc.
Concerned officers of the branch showed and discuss with me about General Banking.
Concerned officers of the Investment Section of the Branch showed the various files and discussed with me how to provide Loan to the Prospective sector of the country.
Executive Summary
One
of the vital parts of MBA program is internship program. At
the end academic course work one need to compete the internship
to gain practical knowledge to have an experience of
implementation of acquired theoretical knowledge. However, at
the end of my MBA course work I was placed in Pubali Bank
Limited at Nawabpur Branch, the largest commercial bank of the
country. During my internship period I have studied almost all the
section of the branch. General banking sector, Loans and advance
Section etc. At the end of my three months internship, I have
gained a thorough knowledge about all of those.
Pubali Bank started its journey as the largest public commercial
bank with a great hope and aspiration. But now it is a private Bank.
Still this bank controls a significant portion of all banking
transactions. With the up gradation of technology the bank is also
trying to keep pace.
This report intends to give a comprehensive view of the bank. It
consists of seven parts. First part consists of introduction and
Banking . Third part consists of Organizational overview of Pubali
Bank Limited. Forth part deals with general banking. Fifth part
involves loans and advances. Sixth part involves papers to be
submitted to get a loan and finally seventh part consists conclusion
and recommendation.

INTRODUCTION OF THE REPORT
1.1 Background of the study
In the age of globalization, the importance of banking sector is beyond description. Banking sector is going ahead with the improvement new technological innovation. Introduction of modern technology has made banking sector user friendly and more competitive. The banks of Bangladesh are not lag behind. The banks of Bangladesh are keeping pace. To survive in the financial market and to play significant role both technological implementation and skill manpower are accessory in which Department of Management Studies of D.U. is playing a significant role. By providing skilled manpower, Department of Management Studies ahs given the banking sector a momentum. And the internship program has made the effective. By studying at the University of Dhaka, one gains an extensive theoretical knowledge and the internship program makes that knowledge effective. Theoretical knowledge has a great value but without having theoretical knowledge it might be vain. In this regard, the internship program is fulfilling the lacking of practical knowledge of the graduates of Department of Management Studies. After completing the internship program the graduates become more effective in that particular field.
1.2 Justification of the Report
Due to market economy the competition among nationalized, foreign and private commercial banks and the expectation of the customers become rapidly growing concerning the banking operation & how customer service becomes more attractive. Reciprocating the sentiment, commercial banks are trying to elevate their traditional service to a better standard, to meet the challenging needs. Side by side, these banks have now concentrated their
their existence. Under the above circumstances, it has become necessary for Pubali Bank, a leading commercial bank, to focus its' attention towards the improvement of the customer service through its' multi-purposeful activities. That is why it is quite justified to make an in-depth study about its operation and evaluate service provided by this bank and scope for its' improvement. This is the exploratory study that evaluates the functions of Pubali Bank. The study may help formulating policy regarding the ideas relating to the feelings of the customers & bankers. Now it is hoped that it may have some significance to Pubali Bank and those who want to develop Pubali Bank.
Since financial area is my preferred area to build up my career, this study will vehemently help me to go forward and improve my career path.
1.3 Schedule of Internship
On the very first day at the Pubali Bank, I was welcomed by the Managing Director of Nawabpur Branch, Mr. Shym Sundar Banik. I was assigned for practical orientation at Nawabpur Branch of Pubali Bank. During my practical orientation, I was guided by Mr. Shajhan Mahmood, SPO, of the branch. He gave me some direction in choosing, schedule or orientation at various departments of the branch; I started with General Banking Department. The schedule, although not water-tight has given below:
Date of Orientation (2006) Departments
10 Octobor ’06- 25November ‘06 General Banking 26November’06-10 January ‘07 Loans & Advances
1.4 Objective of the Study:
Application of theoretical knowledge in the practical field.
Understand the real management situation and try to suggest for improving existing problems.
To analyze the financing system of the Bank to find out if the Bank has any field to improve upon and to have greater contribution towards country's economy.
To examine the profitability and productivity of the Bank.
To acquire knowledge about the every day banking operation of Pubali Bank.
1.5 Methodology of the Study
While conducting the study, sources were explored for primary information and data. But hardly any updated data could be found. In the absence of updated information or data dependence on secondary data has been inevitable. However, whenever possible primary data has been used. Data were also collected by interviewing the responsible officers and from some documents & statements printed by the Pubali Bank. Pubali Bank also helped me in collecting data providing books and Bank’s annual report.

1.8 Limitation of the study
Although I have obtained wholehearted Co-operation from employee of Pubali Bank Nawabpur Branch, they were extremely busy. So they were not able to give much time as they and I would like. Besides, total duration of internship is not sufficient to give me more than a superficial idea of the functioning of the various departments I was rotated through. On they way of my study, I have faced the following problems which may be termed as the limitation/short coming of the study. These are as follows:
a) The main constraint of the study was insufficiency information, which is required for the study.
b) Since the Bank personnel are very busy with their activities, as a result they failed to co-operate with me to complete this report.
c) The major limitation of the study was shorter time period. For an analytical purpose, adequate time is required. But I was not given adequate time to prepare such as in-depth study.
d) Such a study was carried out by me for the first time. So, in-experience is one of the main factors that constituted the limitation of the study.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF BANKING
2.1. Introduction:
.
A bank is one, who in the ordinary course of his business receives money, which he repays by honoring cheques of persons from whom or on whose account he receives it. Banks deal mainly with money and credit. They purchase and sell money and credit.2.2. Evolution of the Word “Bank”:
Etymology deals with the roots and origin of the word ‘bank’. According to some writers the word bank derived from the word BANCO, BANCUS, BANQUE, and BANC, all of which mean bench upon which the early bankers used to display their coins and transact business in the market place.
According to the some other writers the word ‘bank’ has been derived from the German word ‘BANKE’ which means a joint stock fund. Banking in the ancient times was largely confined to money changing and money lending.
2.3. Emergence of Modern Banking:
In middle Europe the bankers of Lombardy were very famous. They planted the seed of modern banking in England. Among those prominent bankers we can named one who were famous not only in banking but also in political history in Europe. These Lombardy people were very much disturbed in 13’s by internecine work that was followed by plunder by Kaiser Frederick two.

At the British time banking in the form of agency house, exchanging house started to flourish in kolkata., especially in the wake of the swadeshi movement. In 1947 after the separation of Bengal, bank business faced a severe disaster as non-Muslim bankers migrated to India. In order to rebuild the bank business State bank of Pakistan was established as a central bank of Pakistan in 1948. In 1971 Bangladesh became independent.
