EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This market research study was carried out to determine the factors that
add value of the credit card. This research study was chosen among many,after thorough evaluation of several market research related topics given to
us by Nepal investment Bank Limited. This was primarily due to the
understanding of the fact that due to increase in competition in the banking
sector, satisfaction to customers in all the products provided by the bank
has become very important. Customer did not seem to be very satisfied with
the facilities provided by the credit card because of which there is no
frequent use of credit card So to dissect this management decision problem
by means of research this research project has been undertaken.
Both exploratory as well as descriptive researches were conducted. Initiallyto find out the problems that needed to be tested in the sample population
were derived from interviews and observation. Those information’s
highlighted the issues that those customers had with Credit card. It also
highlighted the factors that would help increase the value of credit card and
the factors that would help increase the frequency of its use .The
information was again cross checked from the management and formed in
questionnaire. The questionnaires were distributed among few customers to
check its short comings. Then the needed modifications were made and
distributed through self monitoring to the sample customers. Majority of thefindings are based on the Questionnaire survey and interviews conducted.
After this, the tool was designed, tested and administered. The hypotheses
were tested using SPSS and finally the conclusions were drawn based on
which recommendations have been given.

Literature Review
A credit card is a system of payment named after the small plastic cardissued to users of the system. In the case of credit cards, the issuer lends
money to the consumer (or the user) to be paid later to the merchant. It isdifferent from a charge card, which requires the balance to be paid in fulleach month. In contrast, credit cards allow the consumers to 'revolve' theirbalance, at the cost of having interest charged. Most credit cards are issuedby local banks or credit unions, and are the same shape and size, asspecified by the ISO 7810 standard.
It is an undeniable fact that credit cards play an important role in oursociety today. For businessmen, business credit cards are a great help inseparating their personal accounts from their business accounts. It is aconvenient way to manage the company and the employee’s business
expenditures. It also makes accounting and tax monitoring easier throughupdated periodical reports of all purchases made.
The stiff competition among banks has given birth to a variety of classes of business credit cards, which can only mean bigger and better choices forcustomers. Deals are becoming more and more attractive, and clients aregiven more options and freedom to get the best service they need.
The vast number of business credit cards to choose from can causeconfusion for a prospective customer especially if everyone seems to beoffering a great deal. With all the excitement, it could be tempting to sign-
up to the first credit card offer that catches your attention, without evenconsidering the others. Whichever provides the best deal/ service customersgo for it. So the value of the credit card lies on the facilities provided by thecredit card.
Benefits of Credit Card

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 9/35
Credit card can be used to get the statements to keep track of exactly howmuch you are spending and where your money goes. With some creditcards you can use personal finance software to download your credit cardtransactions from the Internet right to your home computer.
Credit cards may actually save you money. Some people avoid makingpurchases if they do not have cash. Cash seems to "burn a hole" in ourpockets, it just disappears. It is so easy to spend and it is right there. But acredit card takes more effort and you know that you have to pay the billlater that month.
Your credit card may also offer a rewards program where you get cash back,frequent flyer miles or discounts on services and merchandise.
Credit cards are convenient. Some purchases, especially those on theInternet, will only accept credit card payment. Also you don't have to
continually go to the bank or ATM to get cash.
A credit card also provides a measure of safety. You don't have to carrylarge amounts of cash for large purchases. Even if your card or credit cardnumber is stolen, you are not responsible for the thief's use of your card.
But credit cards can also be a crutch. Too many people see their credit limitnot as the maximum amount of debt they can go into, but as an account fullof money that they can spend.
Many people have developed the habit of using their credit cards to buywhat they want now and paying for it later. They then make only theminimum payments required. Often the minimum payment is set so thatyou only pay the monthly finance charge (interest) or just a small amountabove it.
Sometimes the credit card can lead a person into living a lifestyle that isbeyond their means. If a person gets in the habit of dining out two to threetimes a week and these meals are paid for by credit card, the card balanceincreases quickly. Often the additional expense was not planned or
budgeted. People can even end up spending more each month than theyactually earn.
This can continue as long as the credit card balance is below the limit andthe person makes their regular monthly payments. But as soon as the creditlimit is reached, many credit companies will increase the credit limit andgive the person more room to get into debt.

Things to consider when you are looking for a business credit card
For instance, if your type of business entails you to make large purchases,
you will be most happy with a business credit card that offers cash backs onthese items. Usually along with cash back programs; they also have pointsystem rewards which entitles a customer to one point for every one dollarspent on the credit card. You can actually save a lot of money by buyingmore items which your business really needs.
If you are a frequent traveler, you can take advantage of free travelprivileges as your reward. You may also avail of discounts from affiliatedairlines, so it would be better if you choose the business credit card that haspartnership with the airline you regularly fly with.
Aside from the benefits listed above, added perks may include shoppingprivileges from affiliate merchants, or discounts from servicing outlets likeshipping, printing, mail deliveries, gas stations, etc. which are often theservices that businesses commonly use. Taking all these rewards andbenefits in consideration can earn your business a great deal of money
For merchants, a credit card transaction is often more secure than otherforms of payment, such as checks, because the issuing bank commits to paythe merchant the moment the transaction is authorized, regardless of whether the consumer defaults on the credit card payment. In most cases,cards are even more secure than cash, because they discourage theft by
the merchant's employees and reduce the amount of cash on the premises.Prior to credit cards, each merchant had to evaluate each customer's credithistory before extending credit. That task is now performed by the bankswhich assume the credit risk.
For each purchase, the bank charges the merchant a commission (discountfee) for this service and there may be a certain delay before the agreedpayment is received by the merchant. The commission is often a percentageof the transaction amount, plus a fixed fee. In addition, a merchant may bepenalized or have their ability to receive payment using that credit cardrestricted if there are too many cancellations or reversals of charges as a
result of disputes. Some small merchants require credit purchases to have aminimum amount to compensate for the transaction costs, though this isnot always allowed by the credit card consortium.
In some countries, for example the Nordic countries, banks guaranteepayment on stolen cards only if an ID card is checked and the ID cardnumber/civic registration number is written down on the receipt togetherwith the signature. In these countries merchants therefore usually ask for
10
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 11/35
ID. Non-Nordic citizens, who are unlikely to possess a Nordic ID card ordriving license, will instead have to show their passport, and the passportnumber will be written down on the receipt, sometimes together with otherinformation. Some shops use the card's PIN for identification, and in thatcase showing an ID card is not necessary
“The value of any product is felt by the customer if that product givessatisfactory service/ facility to the user. So is the case with the Credit card.The value proposition of the credit card lies on the facilities it provides.More the facilities to the customers more will be its value.”
CHAPTER 1
1.1 BACKGROUND
1.1.1. Objective of the study
The main objective of the study was to identify and analyze the factors or
the unique features that contribute to the satisfaction of credit card users
leading to increase in frequency of its use, through the use of various
marketing research techniques. Marketing Research as a field of study has
become the key strategic weapon for any organization to better understand
the market. This study aims to solve the problem of KUSOM through the
practical and theoretical understanding of this course.
1.1.2. Importance of the study
Today the banking sector of Nepal has seen a tremendous growth with
mushrooming number of commercial and development banks. There is a
tough competition brought in from the new entrants with their innovative
ideas and strong marketing sense. The commercial banks in Nepal have
11
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 12/35
been fighting for their share of the pie with their respective competitors.
Due to the increase in number of financial institutions customers bargaining
power have increased. Customer’s satisfaction has become a very important
for every bank. Due to the busy schedules, customers look for an easier way
to get their things done. So which ever bank provides them with better
facilities they switch to that bank. Credit card is one product that bank
provides to its customer to make their work easier. Frequent use of credit
card is profitable to the bank. So identifying he factors that will satisfy the
customer with the credit card which ultimately leads to increase the
frequency of use of credit card. So the importance of this paper lies on
understanding the implication of Marketing Research regarding problem
identification and solution generation.
1.1.3. Limitation of the study
The main limitation of this research was the time management. As this
research was to be conducted within 3 months time, adequate time thatthese projects require could not be devoted.
For which, there might be some shortcomings in the paper because of us
not fully or adequately being able to implement entire marketing research
techniques.
1.1.4. About the company
Nepal Investment Bank Ltd. (NIBL1), previously Nepal Indosuez Bank Ltd.,
was established in 1986 as a joint venture between Nepalese and French
partners. The French partner (holding 50% of the capital of NIBL) was Credit
Agricole Indosuez, a subsidiary of one the largest banking group in the
world.
12
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 13/35
With the decision of Credit Agricole Indosuez to divest, a group of
companies comprising of bankers, professionals, industrialists and
businessmen, has acquired on April 2002 the 50% shareholding of Credit
Agricole Indosuez in Nepal Indosuez Bank Ltd.
The name of the bank has been changed to Nepal Investment Bank Ltd.
upon approval of bank’s Annual General Meeting, Nepal Rastra Bank and
Company Registrar’s office. The company believes that NIBL, which is
managed by a team of experienced bankers and

are looking for. It is sure that their choice of a bank will be guided among
other things by its reliability and professionalism.

1.6 CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK The various unique facilities in the credit card that customers seek for to
increase their frequency has been identified during the qualitative research
process. The facilities that customers look for in a credit card are electricity
bill payment , phone bill payment , water bill payment, ISP bill payment,school fee payment, discounts in payments from credit cards, free
transaction service from the member bank. These attributes which have
been identified lead to satisfaction of customers leading to increase in their
frequency of purchase. Customers are already aware of the credit card
issued by NIBL and the customers have already tried as well but due to the
cut throat competition prevailing in the Nepalese market NIBL needs to add
extra facilities in the credit card to satisfy the customers which will lead to
increase in the frequency of its use.

Many new products are re-purchasable kind. These include virtually all the
non-durables consumed by the households and the factory. The sellers of these products are even more interested in the repurchase rate than in the
trial rate. A low trial rate could be attributable to poor distribution,
promotion, packaging which are correctable. Trial of a new product can be
stimulated by distributing free samples, introductory pricing and so on. But
a low re-purchase rate may suggest a product that does not meet the
consumers’ expectations, which is harder to correct. Unfortunately, early
aggregate sales figures do not distinguish between the two rates. A rising
sales curve could mean a high trying with a low re-buying rate (a
correctable situation).
The figure above shows that individual consumers facing a new
frequently purchased product.
If the consumer is unaware of the product then,
1. He must be made aware of the product of the company. Creating
awareness about the product can be done with advertising,
promotion and sampling which are the main tools the marketer has
control of here.
NIBL present costumers who are our sample population and on
whose answer basis our research is focused on are already
aware of the Credit Card issued by the bank. So this step is not
of the serious concern to NIBL to help them increase the
frequency of purchase of the credit card.
2. In this second step, consumer must be induced to try the
product of the company. Advertising should be done in such a
manner which induces the consumer to buy the product. This step
shows the effectiveness of the advertising and promotion done for
the product. Effective advertising and promotion leads to trial
phase.
17
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 18/35
NIBL present customers are the sample population on whose
answer basis our research is based on. They are the costumers
who are already the present users of Credit Card. So the trial
phase has already been passed by the customers.
3. In this third step, consumer must be induced to repeat once.
Once the product is not disliked by the consumer or even if the
consumer is in the confusion state of the product where the
consumer are not sure if it was really good or not, they will be
induced to repeat once. The product quality, relative price and
distribution affect repeat likelihood.
The customers of credit card holders of NIBL are not really in
this state because once the card is issued they do not use it only
once. And our research found out that there are no such
customers who have used the credit card only once after they
have issued it.
4. In this step of induced to repeat regularly , the product should
be of a very attractive package. Their product quality, relative
price, distribution will be of the most attraction to the consumers.Once the customer is in this step of repeat-purchase model they
will be termed as LOYAL COSTUMERS.
NIBL present customers are dissatisfied with the present service
of Credit Card. Because of the dissatisfaction, there frequency of
use is not so high. For that NIBL needs to come up with new
attractive features in their product to lure the consumers to
repeat their purchase. This step is of a serious concern to NIBLsince the problem that we are trying to solve from this research
is on the frequency of the use of credit card where the effort of
the bank is to be focused on the product quality or the product
innovation by adding new unique features to the credit card to
induce the repetition of its use.
18
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 19/35
So to reach this step of repeat purchase model, the only solution
for the NIBL is to increase the product quality or add new
features to the credit card.
CHAPTER 2
2.1. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
2.1.1. Population
The sample populations for this research are the present customers of NIBL
of Kathmandu who uses credit card.
2.1.2. Definition of the information needed
The research required information about what is the credit card features
that customers want to make use it frequently. So, for this reason, both
exploratory as well as descriptive researches were conducted. Initially to
find out the problems that needed to be tested in the sample population
were derived from interviews and observation from NIBL. Thoseinformation’s highlighted the facilities that customers look for in the credit
cards which would satisfy the customers leading to its frequent use.
The information was again cross checked from the management and formed
in questionnaire. The questionnaires were distributed among 5 customers to
check its short comings. Then the needed modifications were made and
19
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 20/35
distributed through self monitoring to the sample customers of all three
banks. Majority of the findings are based on the Questionnaire survey
conducted.
2.1.3. Measurement and scaling Procedures
Scaling used in the research process was ordinal, ranking, and interval.
2.1.4. Questionnaire Design1
The questionnaire incorporates all the information required for this report. There were altogether 14 questions which were mostly close ended and
some were open ended. Detailed demographic information about the
customers were not required, them being present customers, so such
details have been excluded.
2.2. QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
2.2.1. Sampling Process, Sample size and Sampling Frame
The sample populations were the present customers of NIBL. The sample
size was chosen as 80 for all as it is the appropriate size to test hypothesis.
Then through rand command, the random number to approach the
customers was derived as 2. So, every second present customer was
approached to avoid biasness. Self monitoring of the questionnaires wasdone.
2.2.2. Field Work / Data Collection

Researchers have distributed their time and effort in filling the
questionnaires from the respondents. Thus data was collected from the
response of the respondent in the meeting itself. The researchers ensure
accuracy and authenticity of the responses as well as maintenance qualityof research methodology.
2.2.3. Data Preparation and Analysis
Proper and adequate editing, coding, transcription, and verification of data
were done. Each questionnaire was individually administered. Data Analysis
was done with the help of SPSS 15.0. Various parametric as well as
nonparametric tests were done to interpret the data. The tests included
one-sample t-test, regression analysis, chi-square, and correlation.

3.2 CONCLUSION
Credit card is valued by the customers if it provides them with the services
or facilities more than what they have been providing now. It is seen that
there are many factors which customers look for to bring them satisfactionon the use of credit card of NIBL. The present customers are dissatisfied
with the present service provided by the credit card of NIBL. Even though
the customers are dissatisfied with the present service of the credit card of
the bank but the prior bad experience of the credit card use is not much.
The customer are dissatisfied may be because of the less facilities provided
on the use of credit card. Even for those who have faced the bad experience

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 29/35
with the use of credit card they say that it is have no effect on its usage in
the future if the bank comes up with the new services of credit card.
Given the choices of services like, phone bill payment facility, freetransaction service from the member banks facility, electricity bill payment
facility, discount on payments from credit cards, ISP bill payment facility,
water bill payment facility and school bill payment facility, “discount in payment
from credit card and free transaction service from member banks” is preferred the most among
all others given.
Till the customers are not satisfied with the service its usage will be affected coz the usage of
credit card is determined by the satisfaction of the customer on the use of credit card. Here those
satisfactions includes the facilities to be provided such as phone bill payment facility,
free transaction service from the member banks facility, electricity billpayment facility, discount on payments from credit cards, water bill
payment facility and school bill payment facility. These excluding the ISP bill
payment are all associated with their frequency of use. Similarly, those are
also related to the satisfaction of the use of credit by the customer. Till the
customers do not get those facilities in the credit card they will not be
satisfied with the services of credit card.
3.3 RECOMMENDATION
Based on our survey and the key highlights of the factors that needs to be
taken into consideration by the bank, few recommendations have been
given below in order for NIBL to solve the problem of value adding
29
8/7/2019 Intern Research on Bank
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/intern-research-on-bank 30/35
proposition of the credit card which is derived by the satisfaction to the
present credit card customers.
The recommendations for NIBL are:
1. Though customers are dissatisfied with the service of the credit card
of the bank but it is seen that not much of the customers have such
bad experience and its usage is not going to get affected in the future
which shows that NIBL has the potential for the increment of the credit
card usage in future if it is able to provide with the facilities they have
asked for.
2. Those facilities viz. phone bill payment facility, free transaction
service from the member banks facility, electricity bill payment
facility, discount on payments from credit cards, water bill payment
facility and school bill payment facility are related with the satisfaction
of the use of credit card to the customers and those are also
associated with the frequency of its use by the customers so until and
unless NIBL does not introduce new facilities in their credit cards thefrequency of its use is not going to increase. So, NIBL needs to
introduce new facilities in their credit card.
3. Among all the services that were mentioned, customers have more
preference for “discount in payment from credit card and free transaction
service from member banks”. So the bank should give these facilities the
first priority while introducing with new facilities of the credit card.
