1.1 Background of the Organization

The Bank started out in Lahore by the name Australasia Bank before independence in 1942; and

became Allied Bank of Pakistan in 1974.

In August 2004, because of capital reconstruction, the Bank’s ownership was transferred to a

consortium comprising Ibrahim Group; therefore, it was renamed as Allied Bank Limited in

2005.

Today, with its existence of over 70 years, the Bank has built itself a foundation with a strong

equity, assets and deposit base. It offers universal banking services, while placing major

emphasis on retail banking. The Bank has a large network of 1000 online branches and over 850

ATMs in Pakistan and offers various technology-based products and services to its diverse

clientele.

The Pre Independence History (1942 to 1947)

In the early 1940s the Muslim community was beginning to realize the need for the active

participation in the field of trade and industry. The Hindus had since the late 1880s established a

commanding presence in these areas and industry, trade and commerce in the undivided

Subcontinent was completely dominated by them. Banking, in particular, was an exclusive

enclave of the Hindus and it was widely believed, and wrongly so, that Muslims were

temperamentally unsuited for this profession. It was particularly galling for Khawaja Bashir Bux

to hear the gibe that “Muslims could not be successful bankers”. He decided to respond to the

challenge and took lead in establishing this first Muslim bank on the soil of Punjab that was to

become Australasia Bank (1947 to 1974)

10

Introduction to the Organization

Page 11: ABL REPORT farri

Australasia Bank was the only fully functional Muslim Bank on Pakistan territory on August the

14th, 1947. It had been severely hit by the riots in East Punjab. The bank was identified with the

Pakistan Movement. At the time of independence all the branches in India, (Amritsar, Batala,

Jalandhar, Ludhaina, Delhi and Angra (Agra) were closed down. New Branches were opened in

Karachi, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, Sialkot, Sargodha, Jhang, Gujranwala and Kasur. Later it

network spread to Multan & Quetta. The Bank financed trade in cloth and food grains and thus

played an important role in maintaining consumer supplies during riot affected early months of

1948.

Despite the difficult conditions prevailing and the substantial set back in the Bank’s business in

India, Australasia Bank made a profit of Rs 50,000 during 1947-48. By the end of 1970 it had

101 branches. Unfortunately it lost 51 branches in the separation of East Pakistan.

The bank did well in despite losing lot of its assets. By the end of 1973 the bank had 186

branches in West Pakistan.

Allied Bank (1991 to 2004)

As a result of privatization in September 1991, Allied Bank entered in a new phase of its history,

as the world’s first bank to be owned and managed by its employees. In 1993 the “First Allied

Bank Modaraba (FABM) was floated.

Allied Bank (2005 to date)

In May 2005 Ibrahim Leasing Limited was amalgamated by transfer to and vested in with and

into Allied Bank Limited. ILL shareholders were issued ABL shares in lieu of the ILL shares

held by them. Application for the listing of ABL shares in all the Stock Exchange Companies of

Pakistan was made. ABL was formally listed and trading of the shares of the Bank.

1.4.2 Account Department

Deposits the Life Blood of a Bank

Bank borrowing funds from outside parties is more important because the entire banking

system is based on it. Receiving of deposits is a basic function of all commercial banks.

Commercial banks do not receive these deposited for safekeeping purpose only. When the bank

receives the amount of deposited as a depositor, it become the owner of it. The bank may

therefore use these deposits, as it deems appropriate. But there is an implicit agreement that the

amount owned by the bank will be paid back to the depositors on demand or after a specified

period of time.

The borrowed capital of the bank is than the bank own capital. Bank’s borrowing is

mostly in the form of deposits. These deposits are lend-out to different parties. Larger the

difference between the rate at which these deposits are borrowed and the rate at which they lend-

out the greater will be the profit margin of the bank.

1.4.3 Advances Department

Lending Principles

The basis function of the bank is to accept deposit and lend money to the borrowers

against a spread so to be able to give some profit to the depositors as well as to earn profit for the

bank. While lending the money to the borrowers the bank should observe the following lending

principals:

Safety Principle

It means that the lended money will come back along with interest or service charges

etc. The borrower should not invest the money borrowed in unproductive or speculative

business.

Liquidity Principle

18

Page 19: ABL REPORT farri

The money which has been lended to the borrower should be returned to the bank on

demand or as per repayment schedule provided by the client. The sources of repayment

should be clear and definite

Purpose Principle

The purpose of the advances should be legitimate and productive. It should be ensured

that the banks, funds are not being utilized for speculative business. The credit

restrictions by the central bank should not be violated & it should also be ensured. It is

always beneficial for the bank to finance for short-term requirements.

Profitability Principle

The end result of every business activity should be to earn some profit. Similarly

the bank must get some profit out of the activity of lending so that the depositors could

get their shares as well as the shareholders could earn something for their investments..

Security Principle

The proposal should be dealt on its merit not on security. The security should be

considered a safety for the bank only in case of unexpected emergencies. All the

relevant documents of securities must be obtained & got valuation of the property or

any other security should be assessed correctly.

Spreading of Risk Principle

19

Page 20: ABL REPORT farri

It is always safe for the bank to spread the risk in large number of borrowers instead of loaning

huge amount to few big shots, it is better to obtain different types of securities instead of

concentrating on one security.

National Interest and Suitability Principle

It is our moral as well as legal obligation to ensure that no loaning is running counter

to national interest. It is also our duty to ensure that our lending policies are not

against the social conditions or bindings

Function of Credit Department

The main function of the credit department is to lend money to the customer. Allied

Bank Ltd. Lends money in the form of clean advances against promissory notes as well

as secured advances against tangible and marketable securities.

LIENLien is the bank right to withhold property until the claim on the property is paid. The

bank looks at their lien as a protection against loss or overdraft or any other credit

facility. In ordinary lien the borrower remains the owner of the property, but the actual

or constructive possession remains with the creditor or bank though the borrower has

no right to sell it.

BY CASH CREDIT

20

Page 21: ABL REPORT farri

In this the bank lends money to the borrower against tangible security. The total amount of the

loan is not paid in one installment. The borrower has to pay markup on the amount borrowed.

Cash credit is favorite loan for large commercial & industrial concern.

BY OVERDRAFT

This the most common type of bank lending. When a borrower requires temporary

accommodation, ABL allows its customer to withdraw an excess of the balance form

their account which the borrowing customers have in credit and thus called overdraft.

This facility is given to regular reliable & well established customer. When it is against

collateral securities, it is called “Secured Overdraft” & when borrowing customer cannot

offer any collateral security except his personal security then the accommodation is

called “Clean Overdraft”.

21

Page 22: ABL REPORT farri

Types of finance

Short Term Finance

Allied Bank Ltd. receives the saving of the people and lends it for short term to its

customers. Short-term finance is generally given for a period of one year or less in

duration.

Medium Term Finance

o The duration range of the intermediate term finance is from one year to three years. It

is also called term loan. Intermediate term finance is usually given for the expansion of

an existing business or for the purchase of new equipment’s.

Long Term Finance

This type of finance is required for the period of more than five years. Long term finance

is generally given for the compilation of big projects, for the construction of building and for the

purchase of machineries.

Producer of Applying for Loan

Any customer who applies for loan should have an account (usually current account) with

ABL branch concerned. That account must be in running position. When approval from head

office is given, branch gives tern & condition to the party. Bank does not advance 100% loan

against a security, rather the profit margin is different in different type of loan.

22

Page 36: ABL REPORT farri

2.3 Personal learning objectives:

Setting objectives is a technique for helping to build a framework for internship learning

experience. It can provide a sense of direction and purpose; serve as a standard against which to

measure progress.

Classroom Theory

The concepts I have read about in textbooks applied in practice? That was my first

objective.

Skill Development

Some skills I may have the chance to develop include: operating office or computer

equipment; handling a variety of situations simultaneously; organizing or analyzing data,

records, writing, and speaking abilities.

Creativity

Doing things a new way and finding new things to do.

Problem Solving

Taking apart some existing problem and finding a solution

Personal Improvement

Developing personal habits or a social skill to deal better with work situations

36

Page 37: ABL REPORT farri

2.4 What I learnt in organization as Intern:

Some of the things that I observed in Bank and I learnt that these key things are very

important to be successful.

1. Patience

A successful career in finance is no longer all about making the most amount of money in the

shortest amount of time. It requires patience. The onset of tough regulation and long vesting

periods requires patience, strategic adroitness and most of all a calm, disciplined disposition.

2. Morality 

Today’s senior bankers are more moral than senior staff in other industries. 

3. Resilience 

Banking is still a hard industry to work in. If one wants to progress through the ranks, one will

still need more resilience than the next person.

4. Empathy 

Getting to the top in banking is also all about empathy. Banks are spending a lot more time

educating potential leaders about the impacts of their actions on those around them. Leading in a

bank is no longer about being bossy and aggressive; it’s about empowering other people,

bringing them on, coaching own team.

5. Collaboration

37

Page 38: ABL REPORT farri

Now a days Banking industry wants people who are able to give their own ideas, to back them

up with reasoned opinions and to listen and accept other people’s views in a considered way.

Collaboration is important in banking

2.5 Application of class room learning in organization:

“To know, is to know that you know nothing, that is the meaning of true knowledge” rightly said

by Socrates. Learning itself has a very vast meaning and is directly related to different ways of

acquiring knowledge. Practical knowledge and theoretical knowledge both are important phases

of learning. Perfect combination of both practical and theoretical methods is necessary for

holistic learning.

 Theoretical knowledge is the base of doing anything practically. Anything done practically

without the theoretical knowledge will be dangerous sometime.

Good communication skills were taught. It proves so helpful during internship because

effective communication causes productivity to increase, errors to decrease and operations

to run smoother.

Time management was taught to each student of class from very first day. The actual

benefits of it are solely realized when entered in practical experience during internship.

Time management is about more than just making schedules. It's also about eliminating

or even pre-empting distractions. This can lead to better communication between co-

workers.

Great time management is the lynchpin of reputation at work. Co-workers see how I

manage my time well as consistent and dependable. Few co-workers question whether I

am going to show up on time and managers may see me as someone who takes her job

seriously.

38

Page 39: ABL REPORT farri

2.6 Comparison of practical experience of internship and teaching

methods

“He tried to read an elementary economics text; it bored him past endurance, it was like

listening to somebody interminably recounting a long and stupid dream. He could not

force himself to understand how banks functioned and so forth, because all the operations

of capitalism were as meaningless to him as the rites of a primitive religion, as barbaric,

as elaborate, and as unnecessary.

Class Room Teachings Practical Experience

One fined a teacher as mentor. No is concerned about Intern.

Things are discussed are précised. Banking is very advance than in

books.

Old manual Banking system is

explained.

Most of the Banks are now advanced

with I.T technology.

Every department is controlled and

checked by Branch Manager.

Every department has its own head

answerable to them.

39

Page 40: ABL REPORT farri

2.7 Improvement in knowledge and skills

Internship is truly on-the-job training. In the job market, an internship is almost mandatory. .For MBA

students, a summer banking internship is extremely important when it comes time for full-time

recruiting.  

Gain Valuable Work Experience

An internship provides the opportunity to gain hands on work experience that just can’t get in

the classroom.

Gain Confidence

Getting experience is a great way to build confidence. Internship provides opportunity to gain

more experience.

Experience of teamwork and development of interpersonal skills

Ability to work in a team and colleagues around is essential in every type of job.

An internship allow to gain experience of this first hand and develop one’s own teamwork and

interpersonal skills which will make a more rounded and attractive candidate for any employer.

Horizontal Analysis

This technique is also known as comparative analysis. 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. The most important item revealed by

comparative financial statement analysis is trend. 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. Such percentages are

calculated by selecting a base year and assign a weight of 100 to the amount of each item in the

base year statement. Thereafter, the amounts of similar items or groups of items in prior or

subsequent financial statements are expressed as a percentage of the base year amount. The

resulting figures are called index numbers or trend ratios.

Formula = Current Year amount / Base Year amount * 100

Horizontal analysis, whilst simple to execute and useful to a certain extent, has its limitations.

These limitations include:

Being highly dependent on the selection of base year and the period under examination in

the financial model.

Horizontal analysis provides little insight into why the trend occurred in a financial

model.

Horizontal analysis does not provide insight into whether the trend in the financial model

results was superior/inferior to some benchmark.

Horizontal analysis does not address the challenge of negative numbers.

51

Page 52: ABL REPORT farri

Vertical Analysis

When using vertical analysis, the analyst calculates each item on a single financial statement as a

percentage of a total. The term vertical analysis applies because each year's figures are listed

vertically on a financial statement. The total used by the analyst on the income statement is net

sales revenue, while on the balance sheet it is total assets. This approach to financial statement

analysis, also known as component percentages, produces common-size financial statements.

Common-size balance sheets and income statements can be more easily compared, whether

across the years for a single company or across different companies.

Vertical analysis is a technique for identifying relationship between items in the same financial

statement by expressing all amounts as the percentage of the total amount taken as 100. In a

balance sheet, for example, cash and other assets are shown as a percentage of the total assets

and, in an income statement, each expense is shown as a percentage of the sales revenue.

In Vertical analysis, various components of the financial statements are standardized by

expressing them as a percentage of some bases.

Examples of common-sized statements include:

Components of the balance sheet expressed as a percentage of total assets.

Components of the income statement expressed as a percentage of sales or revenue.

3.2 SWOT analysis

SWOT analysis is an acronym that stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunity and Threats.

This is a careful evaluation of an organization’s strengths to avail an opportunity by overcoming

its weaknesses and phasing out all the threats to its survival in order to grow and survive.

Strengths

This branch have , more than 7 telephone connections, which makes communication

easier with different branches

The branch is linked through an online network of 1000 plus BRANCHES, thus enabling

them to serve customer in better way.

This branch is provided with latest computer with latest technology which increases the

speed of computer work.

The branch is situated in the commercial hub of MULTAN near the Dawoo Terminal.

This location provides a competitive edge to the Branch.

The branch is situated in commercial area were business activities perform greater as

compare to reside

The Branch has the most experienced and the least experienced staff, which is a good

combination of experienced heads and exuberance of youth.

.

Weaknesses

The Branch has a good staff combination on the basis of experience, but their training

capabilities are not up to the requirements of the fast changing banking environment.

The customer’s Long-term contacts are not maintained with customers.

The technical training of the staff is negligible e.g. in case of the absence of computer there is no

alternate trained personal who can record the daily transactions.

The organization is very much mechanistic and provides no flexibility to encourage creativity.53

Page 54: ABL REPORT farri

The lower staff is non cooperative as compared the lower staff of other branches.

The control of manager is not effective.

The discretionary powers of manger are very low to offer more incentives and value added

services to its customers.

There is a lack of commitment and professionalism on part of the employees. The staff is always

in a hurry to leave the bank as soon as possible.

The organizational culture is not cooperative

Nepotism was observed on part of the manger as well as the top management towards some

staff members.

The branch lacks some physical facilities such as clean washrooms which can affect employee’s

performance

Foreign currency accounts are not entertained. The main reason for these negative responses

that the staff is not trained in dealing foreign currency accounts..

Some shortcomings on part of Allied Bank of Pakistan, which affects the operations of the bank:

Opportunities

A considerable portion of the labor force of the area is serving overseas. Their families

can be encouraged to use ABL as channel for remittances.

The Internet facility in the area provides an opportunity to ABL to get Online.

The Bank has the basic infrastructure, which can facilitate the online process

The location of the ABL, khanewal road branch itself provides an opportunity to ABL to

get more and less cost deposits.

The group from its survey and analysis of IT companies have found out that there are

many companies which are not satisfied with its current bank, so Khanewal road with its

superior service quality and long working hours can capture those customers

54

Page 55: ABL REPORT farri

Threats

The biggest threat to the operational success of the branch is the better competitor’s

services. Many private sector banks are offering higher rates of return to customers than

Allied Bank of Pakistan.

Cannibalization of profits is yet another threat to the success of Bank KHANEWAL Road branch.

The branches of Allied Bank are located very close to the branch. All these branches are taking

away each other’s customers.

One of the biggest threat to the ABL, khanewal road branch is the increasing rate of dissatisfies

customers. Most of these customers were observed to be dissatisfied with the delays in their

servicing.

The greatest threats to the performance of ABL, Khanewal road branch are the decreasing

morale of employees. They feel that they are not provided with bonuses. They are not given

proper attention to have a say in the annual meetings.

High-pressure interest groups are developing which poses a constant threat to Allied Bank.

3.4 Suggestions for Concern Department

Allied Bank was first Muslim bank to be established on Pakistan soil, today being one of the

largest and prominent banks of Pakistan. Allied Bank is providing its customers with value,

quality and distinctive level of service and high ethical standards in all dealings with them. But

there is always need for improvement and need to identify any deficiencies if they are present.

Some of these identified by me are stated below: 

As compared to other competitions of Allied Bank its deposits and advances

percentage is less so there is a desperate need that to adopt such policies that will

help to increase these deposits and advances attract more and more customers by

winning their confidence. 

55

Page 56: ABL REPORT farri

During some previous year such schemes and policies are launched by Allied

Bank which is not needed by customers or perhaps these are not marketed

properly and launched without any market research. That is why they got failure.

So measures should be taken by top management to organize the marketing

department. There should proper research before launching any product and

proper marketing should be done for it to get success. 

There is a desperate need for Human Resource Development by hiring

professionals and competent persons and training the existing force. It will

contribute a lot more in progress of bank. 

Bank has not yet consumer project and commercial banking it is advised that bank

should established 3 types of banking under specialized heads. These are 

Project financing.

Consumer financing.

Commercial financing.

All these three segments should be run separately by the competent persons to

enhance performance and quality of work.

3.5 Innovations:

Bank has successfully achieved the milestone and milestone and migrated its entire operations to

state of the art T-24 core banking solution. It is a Swiss based technology. The core banking

solution has enabled the bank to launch products best suited to customers’ needs strengthen

control environment and assisted in enha

nced market positioning with improved brand image.

It is now launching a new ATM machine in a new format that a customer can withdraw 5 lac in

single transaction and more can be withdrawn in a single day.

Bank has surpassed the milestone of opening the 1000th branch. In addition, internet banking,

890 ATMs and mobile banking played a pivotal role in establishing bank as a first choice bank

for its customers.

56

Page 57: ABL REPORT farri

3.6 Recommendations as manager:

Performance Audit should be done.

Motivation of employees is very necessary. An efficient working employee

should be appreciated.

The accountability of employees should be increased if one is behind its

performance bench mark it should not be neglected as senior person of branch it

should be evaluate.

The attitude of the staff should be friendly of all the customers. The customers

should be taken to the concerned person or guided friendly if the concerned

person is not available. The attitude of “that’s not my Job” should not exist

anymore.

Personal contacts with the customers can hold in providing information to

customers.

3.7 Final Conclusion:

Allied bank was first Muslim bank to be established on Pakistan soil in December 1942 and

serving towards the financial and economic progress of the country. Allied Bank is the one of the

largest and prominent bank of Pakistan. Allied Bank is providing with its customers with value,

quality and distinctive level of service and high ethical standards in all dealings with them. Bank

performance is well despite solid growth across all business lines. Together with sustained focus

on serving customers through integrated banking solutions, evolving risk management

framework, consistent investment in technology and optimal management of operational

efficiencies to bring about cost rationalization has helped deliver consistent performance. It was

really an excellent experience for me as it polishes my analytical skills. I learn how to deal with

customers and your behavior must be cooperative towards customer.

Now I think that I can work more effectively & efficiently in a group/ team with the ability to

manage all levels.
