DEDICATION:

I dedicate this work of mineto myTeachers, My Parents and to all My Friends, who truly help and guide me in completing this project.

Preface:

With the changing world scenario, the need for effective and efficient managers has increased manifold. The organizations require managers with analytical and problem solving abilities enabling them to exploit the opportunities presented. Today, the most important pre-requisite for managers is to have well-developed communication skills so that they not only are able to communicate within the organizations but also with the groups outside the organization, customers, suppliers, government and the community.The development of these skills not only requires strong theoretical knowledge but also a practical experience. Although the six week internship program has not fully developed these abilities but it has at least given me a feel of the market. It has, to some extent, enabled me to see the relevance and applicability of various tools and theories of management. Moreover, this training has created an awareness of the various career opportunities available in the market as well as the tough competition we, the students of business administration, have to face in securing jobs.This report thus represents in a handy and systematic manner, the details of my internship program at UBL. I have tried to write this report using the most accurate and up-todate information and hope that it will give the reader a brief and meaningful idea about the organization.

Acknowledgment:

By the Grace of Almighty, the most Merciful, the most Beneficial, I'm today submitting my internship report, at the end of my first pragmatic experience and I'm glad to have it with UBL, where you come first, only if you're the customer. Thirst of learning is inside you, and whatever the environment, if you're willing to learn, you do. At UBL, I had a new, challenging, yet a perfect environment to learn. My parents' prayers and their teachings were always with me and hereby I will like to take this opportunity to show my gratitude to all those who made my internship an adventurous outwit.Here I am, from more professional and rather corporate environment of UBL main branch Lala Musa. I never knew what it all going to be. As I enter the branch, it took me a minute to realize that the person sitting in the half fortified walls is the manager. Maybe I was expecting him in a glass sheeted room. At a glance, I grasped the interesting personality of the manager and today at the end of my internship; hes one of the persons Ill always remember. Sir whatever I learnt from you is always going to be respected, no matter whatever business field I choose. Those tips are always in my memory bag. Despite of the most hectic schedule, Sir Ghulam Abbas helped me so much. I'm really grateful to you sir for clarifying my concepts and making me learn from your experience. Whatever I learnt from you will definitely help me in my upcoming study and the professional life ahead. Thank you so much for being so co-operative and so helpful every time.In the end, I'll like to thank all my other colleagues, Mr Mian Ijaz Ahmad, Mr. M.Saleem. and all my other fellow internees, here and in LalaMusa branch, for their unconditional support and help in making me learn in a good environment.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:The banking sector in Pakistan comprises of the following types: State Bank of Pakistan, Commercial Bank of Pakistan; Exchange Banks, Saving Banks, Cooperative Banks, Specialized Credit Institutions. The S.B.P. is the Central Bank if the country and was established on 1st July, 1948.On November 7th 1959 United Bank Limited appeared on the banking horizon in Pakistan and started operations with its first branch namely McLeod Road now I.I Chundrigar Road at Karachi. Today UBL has 1056 Domestic and 15 Overseas Branches.UBL was nationalized in 1973 but it is privatized in 2002 as Govt. handed over the management of UBL, the third largest party of the country, to the successful bidder -Consortium of Abu Dhabi Group (UAE) & Best way Holding Limited (UK) as they have purchased 51% shares and have elected H.H.Shaikh Nahayan al Mubarik as Chairman UBL. On May 18th 2004 Mr. Atif Bokhari was appointed as anew CEO of UBL.In Deposits department actual relationship is started with the bank , that relationship is in the form of deposits or the accounts that are opened in the bank. At UBL, customers can deposit in the form of current, saving, call, term and fixed deposits. Main difference between current and saving is of the profit that is provided only on saving account to the customer. Preparation of LC on behalf of importer for the exporters and its bank is the main activity that is perform in the department.With their step in the field of customer financing like house and car financing and their services of Hamah Rupee Traveler check, UBL Wallet (ATM card) and their online system of UBL-ONLINE it has been viewed that they will make tremendous achievement in the days to come. In my view UBL has faced some hard time but after its privatization and its response to the changes in sector they will achieve what their ultimate goal is. PART-1

UBL offer the following product lines in term of ADVANCE DEPOSITS REMITTANCES MISCELLANEOUS (1) ADVANCES:"The lending function of the banking for the production purposes is called Advances".In banking sector advance is the promise that carries the repayment of the original amount plus an interest on the principal amount, extended as advance. The credit/advance is given on the base of the confidence/trust and on the belief that the customer will be able and willing to pay on the demand or at some future time. URL is expanding its Advances product portfolio to serve public financing needs better.UBL Drive:UBL Drive is not just a car loan; it's a financing facility. UBL Drive is a unique auto-financing product, which offers features, options and flexibility unmatched by any other bank.UBL Drive allows customers to drive away in their own car by making a down payment of just 10% and to top that with low monthly installment. UBL Drive offers the option to pay-off loan amount anytime after the first year of financing without incurring any extra charges (different financing rates will apply for this option).

(2) DEPOSITS:Deposits act as a backbone of bank. It is the lifeblood of every bank. These deposits are source of generating incomes for the bank and for the general public to meet the financial needs. The bank accepts the deposits at a low rate of interest and lends it at higher rate of interest, the difference between the lending and accepting rate is the source of income for the bank. Keeping in view the above factors UBL offers the following type of deposits. 2.1- CURRENT ACCOUNT:Current deposit is running deposit because, customer can withdraw deposited amount at any time, whenever he feels need. The customer can withdraw without any prior notice to the bank. The bank has to pay the cheque provided within the limits of the account balance. The main thing is that bank does not pay any kind of interest on current account. Actually this deposit is for the business purpose. The bank cannot invest the deposited amount under current account heading, because of the fear of withdrawal. Bank has to keep with it a higher reserve ratio to meet the needs of the current account holders.2.2 - SAVING ACCOUNT:Saving Account is an important source of funds for the bank. The purpose of this account is to attract the small saving of the general public. Normally workers, schoolboys and employees of the organizations use the saving account facility. UBL also provides this facility to the general public against a certain rate of interest. The new name of this account is now a day is PLS-Saving Account.UBL offers PLS Savings Account that can be opened with an initial deposit of Rs.10, 000. The share of profit is credited half-yearly to the PLS Saving accounts and is calculated on monthly balance. Depositors can withdraw their savings by presenting cheques at the particular branch of UBL or from any online UBL branch anywhere in Pakistan during banking hours.2.3 - FIXED OR TERM DEPOSITS:Fixed or Term deposits accounts are the major source of the capital for investment for the bank and cannot be withdrawn as in case of the current account. The amount deposited can be received back after a certain specified period of time. The rate of interest paid on fixed deposits is normally higher than saving deposits. The rate of interest also varies due to time period.

(3) REMITTANCE:Transfer of money or equivalent to money from one branch to another branch of the same bank is called remittance. Now it has become an easier and safer method both for the client and banker to transfer their money from one branch to another within the city or outside City. In case of remittances normally two banks are involved, are as under: Originating bank branch Responding bank branch3.1 - MODE OF REMITTANCES:United Bank Limited, uses following types for transfers of money:1.

5.3.4INTRODUCTION OF ALL DEPARTMENTS AT HEAD OFFICE LEVEL:Consumer Banking:The consumer bank is divided on business lines based on product offerings. The product teams who encapsulate the futuristic features, the marketing team who has set a new trend in the banking industry through catchy taglines in Urdu and the sales teams, which have broken all sales records, lead these. Business is further supported by dedicated cross-functional teams comprising of credit, operations, collections and finance. The consumer bank's portfolio includes;UBL's visa credit card, which has the distinction of being the first, EMV chip-enabled card in South Asia.UBL Address & UBL drive the home and auto loan products respectively, which captured the bulk of the market share within the first few months of their launch.UBL cash line (running finance) and UBL business line (business finance) are the flexible credit line facilities with competitive mark ups.

The area of major focus for IT Department is the building of infrastructure for the launch of the consumer business.Audit and Inspection:The responsibility of this department is to audit and inspect the operations of the branches. This department checks whether the operations are compliance by the branches in a right way or not. The CCD (Control and Compliance Department) comes under this department. Audit has a support role to play by helping line management in achieving their business goals by ensuring that the operational risks are properly controlled and kept at minimum acceptable level.Agricultural Loans:UBL's agricultural loans on easy terms and conditions to small-scale land owning fanners boost the country's economy and yield greener harvests. UBL enables farmers to buy good quality seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and agricultural implements.Treasury & Capital Markets:This department is interacting with the market and dealing with Core Treasury Products in the money market and foreign exchange. The main purpose of the treasury department of any company is to maintain the liquidity for that company. It is the case with Banking Industry as well. The treasury departments have to manage the buffer stock (in terms of cash) of the bank and they have to maintain the liquidity for giving Advances to their customers.Treasury and Capital Markets (T&CM) contributed to over 65% of UBL total returns. This was due to Government Bond Trading, Equity Trading, Structured Products/Financial Engineering, Corporate Debt Trading, and Double-Count of revenues. Under the new management, the T&CM expedited the launch of Pakistan's first derivative money market product-the FRA (forward rate agreement) with Quetta Textile Mills Ltd.Corporate Banking:The main objective of the Corporate Banking is to look after the special customers who give huge amount of deposits or take higher amounts of Advances, because a Hub Branch can give the advance more than Rs. 200 million. And the party who needs a loan more than Rs. 200 Million they have to contact to the Corporate Branch of the UBL.There are 175 to 200 cases of Advances in the Hub Branch. But in the Corporate Branch there are hardly 15 to 20 cases of Advances due to so much high amount of Advances. And these types of customers are called corporate customers. These types of customers need special care and services as well.Investment Group:This department supports the Corporate Department. When a company wants to install a new project and require the finance from the bank then it is the responsibility of Investment Department to analyze the targets of the project and success or failure of the project. If it is feasible to loan that party then they pass the loan otherwise not. This is called the Project Finance. UBL's Investment Banking Group continues its leadership position in providing innovative and unique financial solution to its clients by anticipating their changing requirements and developing new products and services. UBL (Investment Banking Group) IBG offers full spectrum of services. Commercial Banking:Banking Companies Ordinance 1962 defines the term banking as following "Accepting for the purpose of lending or investment of deposits of money from the public repayable on demand or otherwise and withdrawals by cheque, draft, order or otherwise."The commercial banking has been developed into an important sector economy. UBL is a service-oriented organization, which performs numerous functions. The functions, which a commercial bank performs, can be divided into following categories. Basic Functions Agency Services Functions General Utility FunctionsThe commercial bank has 1000 plus branches which are used as distribution outlets for different business line. UBL also participated in commodity financing and continued its focus on Agriculture loans. Commercial banks have been the most effective mobilizes of savings and have been providing short-term requirements of working capitals to trade, commerce and industry.5.3.5COMMENTS ON THE ORGANIZATONAL STRUCTURE:Conventional organizational structure is being followed in the organization to cater the business needs. Although this structure takes more time in decision-making compared with the flatly structured organizational setup. However, due to maximum availability of higher-level management, decisions are made fairly fast and timely.

PART-11INTERNEES JOB

5.4 Internee Work: History of Bank:

The idea of banks began as long ago as 1,800 BC in Babylon. In those days moneylenders made loans to people. In Greece and Rome banks made loans and accepted deposits. They also changed money. (In the Bible Jesus famously drove the money changers out of the temple in Jerusalem).However with the collapse of the Roman Empire trade slumped and banks temporarily vanished. However banking began to revive again in the 12th and 13th centuries in the Italian towns of Florence and Genoa.In the 16th century a German family called the Fuggers from Augsburg became very important bankers.

In this way bank secure himself from those persons how earn his money from bad ways in other words bank assure that is this money is black money or not. For example a person is come in bank for opening of a new account officer first of all demand income proof.

2. Unconditional Order:The language in writing a cheque should be valid. For example, a cheque is in the following term: Pay X Rs. 25,000/= is a valid cheque. Whereas pay A Rs. 50, 00,000 if you can is not a valid cheque.

3. Signed by drawee:The signatures of the drawee on the cheque should be matched with the signatures as these were at the opening of the account.

(1) Open Cheques:These are those cheques which are paid across the counter of the bank. Open cheques may be bearer or order cheques.

(i) Bearer Cheques:If a customer orders to the bank to pay a stated sum of money to the bearer then it is called a bearer cheque. Any customer who lawfully possesses a bearer cheque is entitled to receive payment of that cheque.

(ii) Order Cheque:If a cheque is to the order of a person in whose favour the cheque is drawn, it is called the order cheque. The order cheque is paid by the bank only when the bank is satisfied about the identity of the payee.

(2) Crossed Cheques:The crossed cheque that can be identified easily. There are two parallel lines across the cheque with or without words. This cheque can not be paid on the counter of the drawee bank. It is deposited in the account of a person in whose order or favor it is drawn.

Kinds of Crossing:Formally there are two kinds of crossing.1. General Crossing2. Special Crssing

1. General Crossing:Two parallel transverse lines are drawn on the face of the cheque with or without words.. There are different words for general crossing.(i)Crossing with two parallel lines.(ii)Crossing contains the words &Co

1. Special Crossing:When a cheque bears across its face the name of the banker with or without the words, not negotiable, in this case the payment is only made to the bank name written on the cheque.

Objective of Crossings:The following objectives are obtained from a crossed cheque:1. The payment of the cheque can not be paid to the wrongful holder.2. It ensures that the payment is made to the concerned receiver.3. It elps to prevent any cheating or theft.

6th Week:Credit Department:The basic function performs by the bank is to accept deposits from different parties and lend money to the borrowers against a spread so to be able to get some profit for the depositors and as well as for the bank.Following are the lending principles: The purpose of the advances should be lawful and productive. It should be ensured that the bank funds are not being utilized for other business. The credit limitations by the central bank should not be dishonored and it should also be ensure. It is always positive for the bank to investment for the short term requirements. At the end result every business should be earn some profit. Similarly the banks must get some net income out of the action of loaning so that the depositors could get their shares as well as the share holders could earn some benefits for their investments. Safety Principal means that the lend money will come back with interest. The bank should not invest money in uncreative or exploratory business. Bank always invest his money on those businesses that generate profit and give benefit to the bank. Liquid Principle means that the money which has been lending to the lender should be returned to the depository financial institution on requirement or as per refund schedule provided by the client. The proposal should be deal on its merits not on the security. The security should be considered a safety for the bank in case of unexpected emergency. All the relevant documents of the securities must be obtained and got evaluation of the property or any other security should he assessing properly. Its always harmless for the banks to extend the risk in large number of borrowers instead of giving huge loan to the one person, it is better to obtain different types of securities instead of concentrating on one security. It is our responsibility to make sure that no loaning is running counter to national interest. It is also our obligation to ensure that our lending policy is not against the social circumstances or binding.

The knowledge that I get from marketing courses was practically observed. I learned how to deal with different customers in different situations. I learned how to solve their problems and what kind of services must be provided in order to keep them satisfied so their loyalty can be achieved in order to maintain long term relationship with them. The practical implementation was observed.6. CONCLUSION OF THE REPORT:The analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threat as narrated above tells us about the present vital concern. The internship of UBL gives me as exposure to the accounting atmosphere. It helped me greatly in understanding the financial system. The experience I got during the internship will help me in understanding the decision-making and how to solve daily problems encountered during the practical working environment

6.2General observations about the sector:The UBL exist in private sector, private sector is part of economy and run by private individuals or groups, usually as a means of enterprise for profit and is not controlled by the state.

6.3SWOT ANALYSIS:The SWOT analysis consists of analyzing organizational strengths and weaknesses, and its environmental opportunities and threat. It helps to identify a strategic niche that the organization might exploit. SWOT analysis of UBL is as follows.

STRENGTH: UBL has got a well reputed on -line system in most of its branches. Remittance department is working very efficiently in transferring the funds to peoples due to this system The bank also has started ATM facility in most of the branches 24 hours banking is now the trend in Pakistan. Bank is providing quick credit services to all the customers at all branches, because the credit manager cooperates with the borrowers while making a loan request to the bank. Management is well organized, Services provided by the branches are very good. The bank has stable growth in deposits since its emergence. The loan facility provided by the bank is on sound basis. They have many checks and documentation that secure their money after advancing. Because of its 1056 Domestic Branches they have very good infrastructure and are prevailing now outside Pakistan also. Very important aspect of UBL is its fast service. Everything goes very quickly. If you are looking for a loan, or you want to deposit money or you want to pay your bills their services are so fast that they respond the customers very quickly. UBL has financial strength as they are gaining profit from the advances that they provide to the organizations. UBL is providing lot of services to its customers like incase of remittances they have services like online services. The Management has changed; employees who are useless are fired and new-experienced graduates are hiring to enhance the operations of the banks & the employees, which are efficient they are getting promoted. Because of its quality management, marketing, innovation in products and services they have established a good reputation in the banking sector. In UBL the working environment is very good. Every employee comes there and works with zeal & heartily. Certain training programs are arranged outside the working environment to train and refresh them or entertain them.WEAKNESSES: The human resource department is not performing well in the organization, Bank is not introducing new products these days, so bank should boost the product development and increase the range of facilities offered for customers. And the rates of interest on its various products have been reduced. Bank is under staff so absence of members create problem All the branches are not computerized. UBL is centralized. It means authority is not delegated to branch level. Manager cannot take initiative regarding different decisions such that for giving finance. The majority of people are not well aware about the products of UBL It is due to their very low services of promotional activity. There is low level of motivation in the employees of the bank UBL Management has adopted reactive approach they respond to the market very slow and are reluctant to take initiative before the problem arises.

OPPORTUNITIES: Government is taking very bold steps to promote IT in Pakistan. UBL has an opportunity to improve in IT stock exchange is very volatile and takes immediate effect so in times of crises conservative investors turns to saving deposits. UBL is surrounded by many competitors it has an opportunity to aggressive marketing to increase its business. One could find opportunities in good marketing; it could also helpful in bank's promotion. Mobile banking is a concept that has started to find its roots in the banking sector. So it is a big opportunity for UBL to avail this chance at big level. Opportunities exist for expansion of UBL chains in the International Arena; Particular Invention must be given to the individual country's customs and cultural practices to be successful. UBL should organize trade shows for the promotion of export for that they should finance the companies those who wanted to internationalize and wanted to introduce their product and services outside Pakistan. Liberalization is a concept that is under discussion around the world as this is going to be implemented by WTO in a few years to come. So keeping in view these perspectives there is great opportunity for UBL to be stronger. An external opportunity exists in efforts to improve the social environment of local communities and society in general by offering innovative, community - involvement programs.

THREATS: UBL has many competitors who are continuously increasing their products and marketing aggressively it may cause its customer to shift to its competitors. The rapidly changing environment in the banking sector and the quick response of the other banks to these changes can be a threat for UBL. What customer really wants is a difficult thing to identify as to identify the customer perception and its behavior is complex procedure. So the changing needs of the customer can be a threat for the banks. Changing Governmental Policies instability in Politics can be seen as a threat for the banking sector. Competition can be the greatest threat for the UBL. As old banks have started changes and many new banks are emerging as a strong entity so UBL will face a strong threat from this competition unless adopt pro - active approach to handle these threats. The political conditions of the country affect the banks performance.

7.RECOMMENDATIONS:SWIFT MECHANISM:SWIFT mechanism is gaining importance for the treatment of LC and it has been found that UBL has only provited SWIFT facility at its head office not to all the authorized dealers dealing with foreign exchange in their branches. To save the precious time of the prestigious for LC in their Central branches inside the country.TO AVOID CUSTOMER DEFECTION:During my time period that I spent in foreign exchange department I found in their registers that many firms were defecting means those who were first loyal to UBL for the operations of opening LC were not viewed in the list for a longer period of time. To avoid their defection whether it is partial or full relationship should be created by giving a phone call. It will make betterment in UBL s goodwill and their profits.REDUCE COMPLEXITY IN ADVANCES:While providing advances the mechanism that is opted by UBL is to provide facility and renew it after a year. In the renewal whole procedure is followed again that was opted at the start. Lot of documentation get not only employee confuse but even customer avoid that. This can be the reason for UBL having low ratio of advances as compared to their deposits. So UBL should finish the method of renewal but keep checking the performance of the organization by having relationship. INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION:UBL has internationalized already and is performing very well in its abroad branches. But UBL has internationalized to few countries. They have big markets ahead of them and with their working activity will get simpler with that. In the form of European countries and markets like CHINA where there is lot of activity related to banks they can expand their chains.MOBILE BANKING:Mobile banking is actually a banking that you can do yourself. You can perform various activities of bank through your mobile phones or through your computers. With just a call you can transfer money from an account to another and similarly other activities. It is a concept that is gaining importance throughout World Pakistan is no exception. UBL should start working on this concept to maintain their existence in the changing banking sector.

ADOPT PRO-ACTIVE APPROACH:UBL management should adopt proactive to survive in this sector. What I have observed is that UBL management is having reactive approach means that they react to the situation that their competitors have created. In case of consumer financing UBL has respond by having same schemes that have been already launched by their competitive e.g. car financing and housing schemes are responded but very late by the UBL. UBL should try for new innovative ideas rather than moving on the same track that their competitive are doing.

EDUCATE ACCOUNT HOLDERS:Whether the account holders are new or existing bank should provide them with the initial information about how to deposit and withdraw money from the bank. It will be beneficial for the bank in a way that lot of time could be saved afterwards with that approach.

PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITY:Bank must let potential customers know that all attractions for banking exist. This is done by advertising on Television and obtaining Press coverage, in conjunction with direct mail, window displays, pamphlet in branches and in appropriate other locations (such as hostels, shops etc.) and including leaflets in statement of accounts sent to existing customers in the hope that they will tell potential customers about the services provided by our bank. RELATIONSHIP:The bank should keep on filling the gap between customer and the bank through consumer friendly attitude and efficient services. They should work on building relationship with the customers.

BUSINESS PARTIES:UBL should start thinking about relationship with the parties that are willing to do the business with the bank. Business in the form of deposits for a longer period of time. Rather than looking for small parties whose purpose is just to deposit in the morning and have withdrawal in the evening should be discouraged. Lot of time in work activity can be saved by having few but good parties rather than having huge accounts of small amount and specially those are not for the purpose of long term deposits. CHANGE ATTITUDE:Employees inside the branches should change their attitude toward the customer. It has been observed that customer do not get the same warm welcome and importance that he wants and he is been provided by other emerging banks like ALFALAH and UNION BANK. They should start thinking about changing their attitude from now. Performance Appraisal & Compensation:Employee appraisal is an major part good and effective HRM. It consist of systematic evaluation of an individual with respect to his personal traits and characteristics, his on job performance and his potential for development. In Unite Bank Limited there is no appraisal system exists. No relationship has so far been established between appraisal and staff motivation. No weight is assigned to appraisal in making decisions on promotions, postings, etc. Compensation is a necessary thing for employees satisfaction. And UBL has not any proper compensation plan when ever management decide to give bonus or extra salary to employees it is followed. So there should be proper compensation plan.Product Marketing:This is age of competition and every organization is facing hard competition from not only domestic organization but also from the international organizations due to globalization. Due to this competition the marketing department plays a vital role in the success of the organization. UBL should have a strong marketing department like many other private banks have, for the publicity of their products and make well inform the customers all the services provided by the bank and to conduct detailed market researches to find out new opportunities, needs of the customers and make comprehensive plans to capitalize those opportunities.Appearance:Physical appearance of the location and inside the building also matters. It helps a lot to attract the customer. Some branches of UBL are very attractive but all the branches should be well dressed. Charge Card:UBL should provide the facility of charge card as well.Recovery Facility:It should also provide the facility of recovering notes payable and accounts payable8.REFERENCES:BIBLIOGRAPHY:BOOKS: James C.
