".%. ,earning I had worked as an Internee in NI ank for < weeks as per re4uired by Lniversity. "uring my Internship, there was a tremendous atmosphere in NI ank. I learned so many things from their management like how to work in a standard place. 2hey are using their own made software which is used by ank for online transactions. 2he most important benefit of this internship is that I got practical exposure of work place.

"uring my internship I have seen that no extra burden given to any employee. ut if there is a need of extra work the manager always do himself *on importance basis+ and went back to home when not a single work remaining. ".*. '6ser!ation 13
Internship Report "uring my stay I had observed that there is no -eward system for internees and there are some employees who don@t give as much importance to internees. 2hirdly I observed Selections of employees are very rare from internees. I think that in Fah Cantt ranch, NI has competitive edge of providing loans for businesses because no other bank is seemed to do this act. ".*.1. S7'0 Anal/sis As SF)2 analysis is based on the assumption that if managers carefully review such strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats a useful strategy for ensuring organi0ational success will become obvious. ".*.1.1. Strengts Strength can be defined as an area where a company is best at doing something or a feature that puts a company at an advantage in comparison to its competitors. I had observed that NI ank en>oys the following strengths. 2he standard of service is very good and customers are satisfied with that service. 2hey have a computeri0ed system, and online banking. NI is the 6th largest bank in ,akistan with over &/' branches NI ank@s A2%@s are linked with a number of leading local and foreign banks. Automated Systems made NI ank to rise with the pressure of rising competition. 2he employers at NI are offered reasonable monetary benefit. Normally two bonuses are given Cid#Ll#$itar D Cid#Ll#A0ha. ,romoting savings and investment NI ank has well established website and is up to date about the bank. ".*.1.". 7eaknesses A weakness is defined as an area in an organi0ation where the organi0ation is not as good at doing something as its competitors or a thing which an organi0ation lacks or disadvantage in comparison to its competitors. ased on the above definition NI ank has the following weaknesses= 14
Internship Report ranch area is very small with respect to hired employees. )nline recruitment *unable to collect a pool of candidate because net is not available everywhere in the country+. ranch manger can not fire any employee on his bad performance as they are hired as permanent employees. Centrali0ed organi0ational structure. Information system needed for cards may not be compatible with legacy systems. '$$ortunities An opportunity can be defined as a change in external environment, which if properly exploited with the organi0ational strengths will result in enhanced sales, market share, or income. Lsing its strengths, NI ank can avail the following opportunities= %any areas for new branch opening. !arge market potential. $avorable demographic changes in society. In the economy of ,akistan where other banks are very carefully lending the different loan NI giving personal loan in huge 4uantity. 2his will result in great market share in future. 0reats 2hreat can be defined as a change in external environment which if not met with proper strategies will result in loss of revenues, market share, or income. In the context of NI anks external environment, the following potential threats exist= $oreign banks operating in ,akistan are playing a significant role by incorporating new technologies and providing better 4uality services thus creating a threat to the local banks especially to NI ank which tries to develop its image in the eyes of customers. 3uge competition with local and foreign banks 15
Internship Report -apid technological advancements has become challenge for NI ank !td Already many huge banks are doing business in the banking sector. "evaluation of ,akistani currency. 2he bank is facing threats with the emergence of new competitors especially in terms of foreign banks. ".*.". 2ecommendations $irst of all there is no 7ob security in the NI ank. 2he employees in the organi0ation should be insured >ob security so that there is no pressure on the employees while performing their tasks. NI needs to advertise it@s self as it is not so familiar among the people like other banks. 2hey should give training to its staff about the knowledge of the products of different banks as they then able to compare the advantages of their product with respect to others. 2hey should provide the facility of online submission of utility bills. 2hey should launch home and car loans services. NI should also introduce H"ress#"ownI day i.e. employees should be given permission to wear dresses other than formal dresses on certain days so as to make them relaxed while work. I found many complaints regarding the A2% issues in NI. %ost of the time A2% remained offline. NI needs to make sure the alternative links for the customer. At last they have a very small building and there is no space for sitting for customer they should try to expand their building. Assessment )f ,erformance )f Cmployees 2here are no proper criteria for assessment of performance of employees and most of the time it is on the personal >udgment of the manager who forward the assessment sheets of all employees to area office for their promotions. ,roblem Fith Information System 16
Internship Report NI ank !td information system is not very good and most of the time online transaction service of the ank network is down, which occurs to be a big issue in smooth working, management really needs to work on it. No -otation )f Cmployees $rom "epartment 2o "epartment 2here is not any rotation of employees within departments and cross departments. 2herefore, the top management should immediately start thinking in terms of rotating the employees in various departments, as this alter work force into human capital. Implementation )f %anagement ,olicy NI ank !td !imited should develop a very serious management policy to attract multi NI corporations as its clients. 2his action, if actuali0ed, would not only prove to be highly profit generating, but it would also contribute a lot towards NI ank !td@s image building. AdvertisementsG%arketing ank needs to use more marketing channels to make public aware of its products and services. In the presence of intense competition NI ank !td has to reali0e the importance of marketing. "istribution )f Fork %anagement should distribute work e4ually among different employees. Some of the employees are overburdened while some sections are overstaffed. Staff 2raining D Improvement In ,rocesses 2o keep staff well e4uipped and updated with enormous changes in current banking environment, training are an important part of survival. Cspecially for the customer service staff and phone banking department as they are at front end and need more efficient performance for having satisfied customers. 3. .'N.,9SI'N 17
Internship Report "uring my stay at NI ank limited I have learned a lot of things about professional field like culture of the organi0ation and the behavior of employee like how to deal with customer to become a loyal customer of the organi0ation. NI is a Singapore based business group. ;roup has diversified type of business all across the globe. In NI ank, employees have very good relationship among themselves and also with their customers.
