EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As a compulsory part of degree of master of commerce, I did my 6 weeks internship
in a branch of MCB Bank Limited, located at Bank Square Gujranwala.
MCB Bank Limited (formally known as Muslim Commercial Bank) is one of the
oldest and biggest banking company of Pakistan with a domestic network of over
1,130 branches and 600 ATMs across Pakistan with a customer base of 4.5 million
(approximately). It was incorporated on July 09, 1947 under Indian Company Act
1913 and was nationalized in 1974 as part of Government of Pakistan's economic
reform movement and was later privatized to Nishat Group in 1991. MCB Bank has
won various “Euro money” and “Asia Money” awards as best bank in Asia and
Pakistan. Since the privatization of the bank, MCB has implement different policies to
make it one of the best banks of Pakistan, which included introducing new products
and services and increase its operations by opening new branches in Pakistan.
During the period of my internship at MCB, I did not find any problem in my learning
process. Although there were some limitations but they were manageable. I learned
the processes of remittances, account opening, ATM Card, dealing with information
seeking customers, sending and receiving confirmation mail and different types of
letters. I mainly worked in clearing and posting department most of the period of my
internship. I also commented on daily high value transactions of the branch and
prepared KYC forms and different debit and credit vouchers. Financial analysis and
SWOT analysis of MCB are also included in this report. As a whole, it was quite a
good and exciting learning and practical experience because it was my first time to
having opportunity of learning in real business world and other than class rooms.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
First of all I am really thankful to almighty ALLAH, who gave me the
strength to complete degree and internship in time and without problems.
I am grateful to all my teachers who gave me knowledge and enabled me
to use that knowledge into practical field during my internship.
I am also thankful to staff at MCB, Bank Square branch for being a help
in matching my class room knowledge with practical working processes.
Especially the branch manager “Khawaja Salman” and “Chowdary
Afzal”. They were really a useful help during my internship period.

INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 9
1.1: Introduction:
In this section a brief explanation of purpose of this report, sources and methods of
information gathering, accounting and business techniques used in this report and
limitation of information gathering and accounting and business techniques will be given.
1.2: Purpose:
This report is prepared in the result of internship done at a branch of MCB Bank Limited
located at Bank Square Gujranwala. After completing four semesters of M.COM, a six
weeks internship is a necessary part of the degree at any manufacturing or service
organization.
Internship is indeed a first step into practical field and to work in real business settings. It
gives opportunity to use and match the class room knowledge with practical skills and let
the student do the research work himself while observing and understanding accounting,
finance and management system of the organization. One of the useful objectives of the
internship is to work with business professionals.
1.3: Sources and Methods of Collecting Information:
To make this report various sources of information are used. The most important sources
of information is staff of branch and self collected data during the course of internship.
Financial statements of MCB, website of MCB, different economic reports, press
releases, articles, business record and different books of the course are some other names
of sources of information used for making this internship report. Financial statements of
MCB are collected from the website of MCB and different press releases and news
reports are taken into consideration in order to have an understanding of situation of MCB
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 10
in banking sector of Pakistan. Annual reports of three previous years of MCB are
collected from the financial performance portion of the website of MCB and for the
financial and ratio analysis business finance books and different business and information
websites and a special lecture given by Sir Hafiz Imran Akram helped me to have a better
understanding of analytical methods and to perform the report work in a better way.
1.4: Limitations of Information Gathering:
In large companies like MCB, the access to primary information is a point where different
facts do matter like economical and social position of internee. Secrecy policies of bank,
non-availability of information in a manner required for analysis are some of the
limitations and due to work load on staff of the bank they have very small amount of time
to proper assist. The availability of high speed internet connection is also necessary
otherwise it seems near to very hard to complete this project in time.
1.5: Explanation of Accounting & Business Techniques and Limitations:
SWOT analysis and financial analysis are explained below:
1.5.1: SWOT Analysis:
SWOT analysis is a strategic planning method used to evaluate the Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats involved in a project or in a business venture. It
involves specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the
internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieve that objective.
SWOT analysis groups the information into two main categories, internal analysis and
external analysis.
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 11
The internal analysis is a comprehensive evaluation of the internal environment's
potential strengths and weaknesses. Factors should be evaluated across the organization in
areas such as company culture, company image, key staff, access to natural resources,
operational efficiency, operational capacity, brand awareness, market share, financial
resources, patents and trade secrets etc.
External analysis covers the study of opportunities and threats in particular organization.
Changes in the external environment may be related to customers, competitors, market
trends, suppliers, partners, social changes, new technology, economic environment,
political and regulatory environment etc.
1.5.2: Ratio Analysis:
Ratio Analysis enables the stakeholder to spot trends in a business and to compare its
performance and condition with the average performance of similar businesses in the
same industry. Ratio analysis may provide the all-important early warning indications that
allow you to solve your business problems before your business is destroyed by them.
Financial ratios are calculated from the annual financial reports of the particular
company.
Financial ratio analysis groups the ratios into categories (solvency ratios, activity ratios,
liquidity ratios, profitability ratios) which tell us about different facets of a company's
finances and operations. Financial institutions such as banks, financial service companies,
insurance companies, securities firms and credit unions have very different ways of
reporting financial information, i.e. they use some specialized ratios like earning assets to
total assets ratio, net margin to earning asset ratio, deposits times capital etc. Here earning
assets are those assets which give markup.
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 12
1.5.3: Trend Analysis:
In trend analysis there are two types of analysis are done which are:
1.5.3.1: Horizontal Analysis:
Horizontal analysis is a form of trend analysis. It uses the figures from a prior year’s
income statement as the basis for calculating percentage increases and decreases over
time. It is conducted by setting consecutive balance sheet, income statement or statement
of cash flow side-by-side and reviewing changes in individual categories on a year-to-
year or multiyear basis.
A comparison of statements over several years reveals direction, speed and extent of a
trend(s). The horizontal financial statements analysis is done by restating amount of each
item or group of items as a percentage.
1.5.3.2: Vertical Analysis:
Vertical analysis examines relationships within a given year. To do this with the income
statement, divide each line by the first item, net sales. Net sales are a summary measure
of a firm’s total activities, so evaluating each income statement item relative to net sales
makes sense. The result yields common-size income statements in percentage terms.

3.2.1.2: Deposit Department:
Bank deals in money and they are merely mobilizing funds within the economy. They
borrow from one person and lend to another, the difference between the rate of borrowing
lending forms their spread or gross profit. Therefore we can rightly state that deposits are
the blood of the bank which causes the body of an institution to get to work. These
deposits are liability of the bank so from point of view of bank we can refer to them as
liabilities.
The total deposits of MCB are growing since its inauguration but after privatization there
is a sharp incline in over all deposits of the bank. The increase in deposits is also a cause
of increase on total number of accounts; bank has progressed in both aspects.
o Functions of Deposit Department:
Account Opening:
Account opening is an agreement in which customer offers his funds and
bank accepts these funds, therefore the nature of relation between a
banker and customer is of a contractual one and all the conditions
applicable to this contract act are also applicable.
Profit Payment & Calculation:
Profit payment & calculation is done in accordance with the rules of
each type of deposit scheme-by the deposit department. The products for
each deposit scheme are calculated separately and added till the end of 6
month period. Then the sum total of these products is multiplied with the
respective profit rates which are issued by the Head Office at the end of
each half yearly closing. The profit provisions for each type of deposits

are also calculated on monthly basis by the same department in order to
calculate the net profit or loss position of the branch.

accountant performs the book keeping duties for all kinds of ledgers.

amount being pay ordered by the concerned person. Pay orders are made for the
payment of fees, tender or issued for the payments of dealings. These are

3.2.1.4: Clearing Department:
Every banker acts both as a paying as well as a collecting banker, It is however an
important function of crossed cheques. A large part of this work is carried out through the
bankers clearing house.
A clearing house is a place where representative of all banks of the city get together and
settle the receipts and payment of cheques drawn on each other. As the collecting banker
runs certain risks in receipt of their ownership the law has provided certain protections to
the banks.
The Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881, lays down hat drawer or holder of a cheque or
draft may cross the instrument generally or specially. It further lies down that a crossed
cheque can only be paid to a banker, who collects it for a customer in good faith and
without negligence.

This department deals with the approval of different kinds of loans to different business
entities. The loans, which are being approved by the department, are kept with some
securities such as bonds, properties and any other type of asset, which is equally valuable
or more than this as a guarantee. Every branch has its own limit, if the amount of loans is
with in the limit of the branch then it is being approved by the branch but if the amount of
loan is exceeding the limit then it has to make it approved by the head office. In this case
the branch stored all the required papers and sent them to the head office for necessary
action. If the head office approved the loan then mostly the period contains a year. And if
the party requires more loan than after a year the loan has been re-approved required that
they should have the limit. In case if the head office do not approve the loans then the

4.1: Work Done by Me:
Week wise work done by me is as follow:
4.1.1: First Week:
In joining week of my internship at MCB Bank Limited, Bank Square Gujranwala, I
worked first 2 days under branch manager
He told me about high value transaction and how to comment on it. Explanation of high
value transaction is as follow:
o High Value Transactions:
All those transactions which are of 1 million or above 1 million are considered
as high value transactions. According to the instructions of SBP, the record of
daily high value transactions is kept separately and then bundled by months and
years.
The branch manager has to comment on these transactions. The comment
consists on following 3 parts:
Business of the customer
Nature of the transaction
Know your customer (KYC)
For example if there is a transaction that Bilal Velvet (a trader in Daal Bazaar)
has deposited or withdrawn cash of 1 million the comment will be:
Trader of Velvet
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 79
Sale/Purchase of Velvet
Within Parameter
Similarly, if there is a transaction that Madina Traders (a sugar trader in Daal
Bazaar) has deposited or withdrawn cash of 2 millions the comment will be:
Trader of Sugar
Sale/Purchase of Sugar
Within Parameter
Branch manager uses “within parameter” rather than writing KYC because he
takes the responsibility to the extent of the dealing of the customer with bank.
He gave me the undone work of previous 6 months which I completed in 3
weeks.
In remaining days of the week I sat with the clearing person Mr. Afzal. He told me some
basics about clearing procedure which is as follow:
o Clearing at MCB:
MCB collects the cheques of its customers on behalf of them. If you have an
account in MCB and your customer has given you cheque of another bank then
you can give this cheque to MCB and MCB will collect it for you.
MCB divided cheques into three categories:
Intra City/Local Cheques
Inter City Cheques
Same Day Cheques
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 80
Local cheques are those which are within city or with region. These cheques
take usually 2 days in clearing process.
Inter city cheques are those which are of other cities or other regions. These
cheques are sent to their particular cities.
Same day cheques are those which are of within city but these cheques are
stamped as same day and these are passed on same day on which they are
presented.
Some banks like “Standard Chartered Bank”, “NIB Bank”, “Habib Metropolitan
Bank” passed inter city locally. Charges for inter city cheques are 250 rupees
and local cheques are free. Cheque return charges are 300.
All cheques are sent via NIFT (National Institutional Facilitation Technologies).
It performs the role of middle man between banks and state bank. It collects all
the cheques from the banks and then sorts them and makes a list of it and
forwards it t SB. After these cheques have been processed in SB, NIFT’s agent
takes it their head office and from where these cheques are sent to particular
destination.
Every Morning Mr. Afzal posts the information of the slips of last days cheques which
are handed over to the NIFT’s agent on MCB’s own developed software “Branch Teller”.
At the closing time of bank when NIFT’s agent come with the passed cheques and
information and dishonored cheques, Mr. Afzal make of reversal of that posted slip.
Cheques which are of MCB and online fund transfer applications are also stamped at this
seat and handed over to the posting person. A daily sheet of record of local cheques
(account number, cheque number, bank name of cheque and amount) is made on excel
sheet. Inter city and same day cheques are recorded in separate register.

MCB are transferred online by Mr. Noman. Online fund transfer applications are also
posted by this person. Both cheques and applications are stamped at clearing seat and
handed over to Mr. Noman. Difference between online fund transfer applications and
cheques with deposit slips is that cheques are of other branches which are to be
transferred in MCB, Bank Square branch accounts and online fund transfer applications
are used to transfer money to account of another branch from the MCB, Bank Square.
He first checks the balance in account of cheque and then he makes verification about
signatures, account number and account title from the “branch teller” software. If the
payee party is trusted then he makes the transfer other wise he sends the cheques in

5.3: Explanation of Results:
If we see towards the specialized ratios of MCB, then we come to know that MCB has
very good earning assets to total assets ratios in recent years. It shows the efficiency of its
management that it is putting its assets to work and making earnings. The efficiency of
the banking firm is measured by its ability to utilize its assets in a manner that they could
be profitable for the firm. Lendings, advances, investments are increasing every year.
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 94
There is decrease in balance with other banks and that for there is a little decrease in the
ratio in year 2010.
Return on earning asset is not quite good for MCB in recent years. Net profit is almost
same in year 2007 to 2009 and there is a little increase in net profit due to higher markup
and non markup interest income in 2010 and there for ratio is a point better than 2009.
This ratio shows real profitability position of business and MCB has some good ratios.
Net margin to earning assets ratio shows the management’s ability to control the spread
between interest income and interest expense. There is mix trend in this ratio in recent
years for MCB. In year 2008, MCB has some good earning assets but interest earned was
not ideal due to slump period. In year 2009 ratio had increased in quite good way but in
year 2010, ratio is little less than last year due to high interest expense but there is a good
amount of interest earned so ratio is up to the mark.
Loan loss coverage ratio helps in determining the asset quality and the level of protection
of loans. This Ratio is unfavorable for MCB in recent year because of increasing trend in
bad debts. MCB has to reconsider its policies in order to correct this situation.
Deposit times capital ratio to some extent, is a type of debt/equity ratio, indicating a
bank’s debt position. More capital greater margin of safety and more deposits more
money available for investment. There is increasing trend in deposits every year which
shows the trust of public in MCB. And there is almost same increasing trend in equity
thus MCB is maintaining this ratio.
Loan to deposit ratio shows the assets available against deposited demand. MCB has
good ratios but there is decreasing trend in recent year in this ratio. Because there is
increasing trend in deposits and decreasing trend in loans (balance with other banks and
lendings to financial institutes).
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 95
Solvancy analysis gives not much favorable picture. Equity to total assets ratio measures
the extent of equity ownership in the bank. MCB should increase this ratio for the wealth
of shareholders. On the other hand debt ratios are also not favorable. Debts have been and
investing in a company having higher debt ratios may be risky due to high amount of
interest paying especially when interest rate is high.
MCB has good profitability ratios overall but as compare to 2009, these ratios are
unfavorable having decreasing trend because of higher amount of bad debts and mark up
and non markup interest expense.
MCB offers good opportunities for investors having good earning per share and dividend
per share. Price to earning ratio is good which shows the good reputation of MCB in
market. There is increasing trend market to book value ratio which shows that value of
MCB in market is greater than value of MCB in its books which is favorable for MCB
and it will motivate investors to invest in MCB. Dividend payout ratio is almost stable
which shoes the solid dividend policy of MCB. The Dividend Yield ratio can be helpful
when looking for income producing stocks, ratio has decreased in 2009 and 2010 as
compare to 2008 but still it is useful for wealth of shareholders.
Horizontal analysis of balance sheet and income statement shows that MCB has
increasing trends in incomes, profits and earning assets. Equity has also increasing trend
which shows that MCB thinks for wealth of its shareholders and improving its policies
every year. Vertical analysis shows the stability of MCB policies that it is marinating
equity and assets position, and improving its net income every year with reference to
markup interest.

Banking sector is growing but actually pretty much grown sector in Pakistan. This
attracts businessmen to enter into banking business in Pakistan. Many private banks have
come into establishment in recent years and many foreign banks have started their
branches in Pakistan. They are equipped with latest banking knowledge and skills as well
as modern technology. So MCB has to compete them with more and more effort.
Current Situation of Pakistan:
o Recent years were not good for Pakistan, because law and order situation
left huge impacts on all businesses.
o Shortage of energy also indirectly affect banking sector because other
businesses rely on it.
o Pakistan is an Islamic country and people here think that bank business is
not halal so most of the time they avoid it.
Govt. Policies:
Government of Pakistan is making is huge borrowings from state bank as well as from
commercial banks. This cause many banks to bankrupt when they have no actual money
to give back to its depositors. Banks are merging into one another to keep their neck up in
water.
RECOMMENDATIONS
101
INTERNSHIP REPORT
UNIVERSITY OF PUNJAB, GUJRANWALA CAMPUS 102
Motivation & Training Programs:
MCB should apply some serious motivation programs to its employees. Its employees
seem to be dissatisfied from their jobs. They think that they are overloaded with work and
pay is not up to the mark. MCB has to remove the gap between management and non-
management. Proper meetings should be arranged for this purpose, this will reduce their
frustration.
It seem that MCB employees are hunted by lack of training, even they don’t know
properly about major running software called “symbols branch teller”. MCB should train
them as all rounder bankers that they could perform more and more banking tasks. MCB
should train them with modern banking policies and attitudes and enable them to run with
modern concept of customer relationship. Employees should also be enable to work on
modern machinery and remaining manual procedures should be converted to
computerized systems as early as possible to increase efficiency, following survival of the
fittest. They should be taught the concepts of team work and job rotation.
Using Proper Channels:
MCB should advertise its products and services using all popular and proper channels like
TV and print media. Mere having a website is not enough plus MCB should consider on
advertising its products in easily understandable way, because pure banking terms are not
understand by common people. People even don’t properly understand English so it is
recommended that spreading should also be in popular languages. It will make ease to
build relations in bank and general public.

Islamic Banking:
In Islamic countries, a huge number of people avoid banking systems because they think
that banking is totally based on interest system which is haram. So, now a day’s concept
of Islamic banking is growing in muslim countries and capturing market. MCB should
understand the future market of Islamic banking and should make policies for it.
Rewards & Promotions:
MCB should reconsider its rewards and promotion policies because their pay is not up to
the mark in comparison of other banks. They should adopt performance based reward
system along with seniority based reward system. This should encourage hard workers.
Good salaries will help in reducing turnover and it will also attract trained professionals.
Customer Relationship Management:
MCB has weak customer relationship management policies. It is running on its brand
name and old establishment. There is lack of innovation in MCB. So, MCB should think
about it. It should think that how to secure future and how to retain and gain customers. In
this age of huge competition customer now are enable to compare the services and
products of one bank with another. Availability of information is also high so there is a
strong need for MCB to improve its customer relationship policies that will help it to
secure its future.

At the end of this concluding this report I’m feeling joy that with blessings of Allah, I
finally completed by internship successfully and now I have made a report on it.
Internship at MCB Bank Limited, Bank Square was a pleasant experience. Most of the
staff there was cooperative and they helped me in my leanings. I notice working at MCB
that most of the MCB branches at those places where deposits come in huge amount and
MCB has advantage of trust of people that its deposits are increasing every year.
MCB bank has a history as old as Pakistan and it is one of most powerful and largest
banks of Pakistan. Huge number of branches in all over the Pakistan and largest ATM
network plus strong financial and market position and a good brand name are some of the
strengths of MCB. MCB has good financial ratios and increasing trends in profits,
incomes, assets and equity, which shows the ever improving policies of MCB and
thinking about wealth of its stakeholder.
MCB has good future in commercial banking with variety of products and services and it
just need to improve its customer relationship management and it has to think seriously
about Islamic banking plus MCB is facing some serious issues like high employee turn
over because employees at MCB are less satisfied with their jobs and pays. So MCB has
to apply some measures to overcome these problems as described in recommendation
section that modern training and motivations programs should be applied at MCB.
I think I honestly did all my tasks during internship period which resulted in a very useful
increase in my knowledge, experience and skills. I hope it will help me in future.
