INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

An internship is an agreement between the intern and a company for a fixed period of
time, which is a structured work experience, related to a student's major and career
goal that allows student to work as an assistant or a trainee to enhance a student's
academic, career, and personal development. Internships are usually part-time if
offered during a university semester and full-time if offered during the vacation
periods. An internship can be either paid or voluntary.

Commercial banks are big business houses that carry out a large number of
operations. Thus, commercial banks have the largest scope of study. At a time when
hundreds of finance students are required to work as interns, commercial banks
provide the largest number of placement under different branches and departments.
Few of the banks even have the provisions for interns with pre-defined schedule
allocated for rotation around most of the department during the period of internship.

This approach focuses on the generalization concept where the interns obtain a
general overview about each of the department they get a chance to be in. Unlike
other banks, Nabil Bank Ltd. focuses on specialization rather than generalization of
the interns. For this reason, an intern is mostly placed only in one particular
department throughout the internship period. Even though the intern is not job-
holders, they are given the opportunity to work as if they are the assigned personnel
in that post.

The two-month period of internship in the CSD department was an invaluable


opportunity to gain the overall knowledge of bank and the operations involved in it.
As per the course requirement of the BBA program every eighth semester, student
should prepare the internship report after the completion of minimum 8 weeks
internship in the institution, it provides the platform for the BBA products to do the
self-evaluation of them in the practical business world and moreover, act as a
feedback forum for the policy makers of the Tribhuvan University to revise the
course as per the requirement Internship provides students hands-on work experience
in a particular organization and field. This report, therefore, explains what
knowledge, experiences were learned in the bank during the internship period.

INTRODUCTION OF THE BANKING INDUSTRY

2.1 Meaning and Definition of the Bank

A Bank is an institution that deals with money by accepting various types of


deposits, disbursing loan and rendering other financial services to the people.
Bank is a financial institution that deals with money. It is an intermediary
institution that helps to bridge the gap between saving and deficit units. It
accepts deposits from saving units and provides interest on amount deposited.
Similarly, it lends money to needy deficit units and charges interest on money
lent. The interest charged on credit
provided by the bank is higher than the interest provided on deposits. A bank
generates a profit from the difference between the level of interest it pays for
deposits
and other sources of funds, and the level of interest it charges in its lending
activities. This difference is referred to as the spread between the cost of funds
and the loan interest rate. Different scholars have defined bank in different
ways. Some definitions
of bank are as follows:

According to Nepal Rastra Bank Act 2002, “Bank is a financial institution


which provides financial services that maybe in the form of accepting
deposits, advancing loan, providing necessary technical advices, dealing over
foreign currencies, remitting
funds etc.” According to Commercial Bank Act 2031 B.S, “A commercial
bank refers
to such type of bank which operates currency exchange transactions, accepts
deposits,
advances loans, performs dealing relating to commerce except the banks
which been
specified for the cooperative, agricultural, industry of the similar other specific
objective. ”
 

2.2 Origin of Bank

The modern banking system that we have today is the result of various
evolutionary activities in banking sector in the past. With the development of
money, gradually the concept of banking also started in order to solve the
complexities the evolution of money had created in human life. The word
“bank” was derived from the Italian word “Banco”, Latin word “Bancus” and
French word “Banque”. All of these words meant the bench in which the
bankers would keep money and its records during the Renaissance. The early
bankers are the Lombard who were originally from the plains of Lombardy of
Northern Italy. They introduced banking practice in England. These Lombard
were eventually bankrupted because they lent money to kings who did not
repay them.

After the Lombard, the goldsmiths practiced banking as a sideline to their


normal activities in the bullion and jewelers fields. The early goldsmiths used
to have large vaults, which were soundly built and heavily guarded. The
person who deposited his surplus funds with the goldsmith became a
'depositor' and naturally paid for the privilege of having his money defended
this way. These payments were called 'Bank Charge'. The depositors who
needed funds to pay wages or debts, could call at the bank and collect such
sums as required.

The modern banking system has been originated in Italy. The first bank called
the ‘Bank of Venice’ was established in Venice Italy in 1157 AD. It was
originally established to finance the monarch in his wars. The ‘Bank of
Barcelona’ and the ‘Bank of Genoa’ were established in 1401 and 1407 AD
respectively. Another important bank the ‘bank of England’ was established in
in1694 AD and it was a great development in the banking sector. The modern
commercial banks were developed after the enacting of ‘Banking Act’ in 1833
AD which provided the freedom to establish a joint stock bank. After the
establishments of joint stock banks in 19 th century in leading countries of the
world, banking system got fully developed.

2.3 Types of Banks


The participated Banks can be classified into different types on the basis of their
functions or activities they perform. At present banking system is more liberalized
and there are various
types of bank working in modern banking system. It includes:
i. Central Bank
ii. Commercial Bank
iii. Development Bank
2.3.1 Central Bank
The generic name given to a country’s primary monetary authority, such as the Nepal
Rastra Bank in the Nepal usually has responsibility for issuing currency,
administering monetary policy, holding member bank’s deposit and facilities the
nation’s banking industry. In the monetary system of all the countries the central bank

system which seeks to regulate the functioning of the commercial banks of the
country. The central bank not only provides monetary aid to the commercial banks in
the time of the crisis but also perform many other functions. Indeed the control over

2.3.2 Commercial Bank

grant short- term loans, and advances. They supply working capital to industries and
enable them to carry on production and manufacturing activities. They grant loans
and advances on the stocks of agricultural commodities, industrial goods etc. They
discount internal and foreign bills and thereby finance the International trade. They

2.3.3 Development Bank


Financial institutions dedicated to fund new and upcoming businesses and economic
development projects by providing equity capital and/or loan capital are known as to
the development banks. They are the banks that aid developing countries in the
economic development. They may lend or invest money and encourage local
ownership. They may be worldwide, regional, or national. Nepal has become member
of World Trade Organization (WTO) and has committed to open financial services
sector (FSS) especially banking services to the foreign banks and financial
institutions by 2010. This could be threat as well as opportunities for banking sector
in Nepal.

This exiting level of non-performing assets (NPA) is not that much healthy sigh for
the smooth growth of banking sector in Nepal. One should seriously need to re-think
proper strategy for managing NPA. The predominance of rural economy urges bank
and financial institutions of Nepal to penetrate, remittance etc. so as to support
poverty alleviation program. Expansion of medium and small size enterprises in rural
sector could lure to banking sector to invest on it too. Managing inflow of remittances
would yield fruitful outcome foe Nepal. Public private partnership concept will be
equally desirable foe poverty alleviation, growth and expansion of banking service
especially in the rural economy.

2.4 Evolution of Bank


The history of banking in Nepal may be described as a component of gradual
and ordinary evolution in the financial and economic sphere in the Nepalese

life, which is different than rest of other world. Even now they are in

evolutionary phase. The establishment of 'Tejarath Adda' in 1980 can be

convinced as the starting of credit mobilization in the nation. However, this


institution, although formally established, was not allowed to take public
deposit and provide credit to public – the government for credit to their staff
and landlords had provided the fund only. Therefore, it was not a bank per se.

Even the urban people in need of the financial support had to rely on Shahus
and landlords because of the limited activities of Tejarath Adda (Maskay &
Subedi, 2009).

The history of modern banking in Nepal dates back to the year 1937 with the
establishment of Nepal Bank Limited as the first commercial bank of Nepal.
The total deposits of Nepal Bank Limited for the first year was NRs.
17,02,025 where current deposits was about NRs. 12,98,898 fixed was about
NRs. 3,88,964 and saving was NRs. 14,163. Loan disbursed and outstanding
at the end of the first year was NRs. 1,985,000. From the very conception and
its creation, Nepal Bank Ltd, was as joint venture between the government and
the private sector. Out of 2500 equity shares of NRs. 100 face value, 40% was
subscribed by the government and the balanced i.e. 60% was offered for the
sale to private sector. There were only 10 shareholders when the bank first
started (Nepal Bank Limited, 2017). The first bank notes were issued in the
year 1945 by the treasury "Sadar Muluki Khana" and there notes were signed
by " Khanjanchi" the head treasury who also was high hindu priest. In the year
1955 Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) act was formulated for the better regulation of
financial institution and in 1956 NRB was established under the NRB act 1955
as "central bank of Nepal" with an objective of supervising, protecting and
directing the functions of commercial banking activities.. After the
establishment of NRB the bank notes are issued by central bank with the
signature of governor of institution (Khalti.com).

Another commercial bank fully owned by the government, “Rastriya Banijya


Bank (RBB)” was established in 1996, which made it possible for the NRB to
devote more attention to the important aspects of economic, monetary and
fiscal development. Industrial development center was set up in 1957. Later it
was converted into Nepal Industrial Development Corporation in 1960. As
agriculture was the basic occupation of Nepalese people so to fiancé and
promote agricultural sector of nation Agricultural Development Bank (ADB)
established in 1968. To operate all commercial banks uniformly single act,
“Commercial Bank Act 1975” was enacted. In 1985, Nepal Government
established five rural development banks under control of NRB to promote
rural sector business and to provide easy access to rural people towards FI.
With the aim to provide quality-banking service, enhance the efficiency and
healthy
competition, foreign investment and new technology in banking sector was
introduced. Nepal Arab Bank, the first joint venture bank of Nepal was
established in 1984.

The bank was the outcome of joint venture with Dubai Bank Limited of
United Arab Emirates. The footstep of this bank was followed by Nepal
Indosuez Bank a joint venture bank with a Bank of Paris in 1986 and later
other joint venture banks are established in Nepal. These commercial banks
have played a very significant role in creating banking habit among the
people, widening area, and business communities and the government in
various ways. In recent year Nepal Rastra Bank had opted merger, acquisition
policy and financial institutions have merged and become one from two, and
even one from three and many of financial institutions are in pipeline of
merging. Although, banks and financial institutions occupies more than 60%
in Nepalese economy but the development of banking sector in Nepal is not
said as satisfactory because these financial sector have target cities and
populated areas only and not in rural areas. This is how modern banking
system is running in Nepal (Sahayogee, 2015).
2.5 Functions
The function of a Bank is to collect deposits from the public and lend those deposits
for the development of Agriculture, Industry, Trade and Commerce. Bank pays
interest at lower rates to the depositors and receives interests on loans and advances
from them at higher rates. The functions of commercial banks are classified into two
main divisions.

(a) Primary functions

- Accepts deposit: lances collected from the firm and individuals are lent to the
temporary requirements of the commercial transactions.

- Provides loan and advances: Another critical function of this bank is to offer loans
and advances to the entrepreneurs and business people, and collect interest. For every
bank, it is the primary source of making profits. In this process, a bank retains a small
number of deposits as a reserve and offers (lends) the remaining amount to the
borrowers in demand loans, overdraft, cash credit, short-run loans, and more such
banks.

- Credit cash: When a customer is provided with credit or loan, they are not provided
with liquid cash. First, a bank account is opened for the customer and then the money
is transferred to the account. This process allows the bank to create money.

(b) Secondary functions

- Discounting bills of exchange: It is a written agreement acknowledging the amount


of money to be paid against the goods purchased at a given point of time in the future.
The amount can also be cleared before the quoted time through a discounting method
of a commercial bank.
- Overdraft facility: It is an advance given to a customer by keeping the current
account to overdraw up to the given limit.

- Purchasing and selling of the securities: The bank offers you with the facility of
selling and buying the securities.

- Locker facilities: A bank provides locker facilities to the customers to keep their
valuables or documents safely. The banks charge a minimum of an annual fee for this
service.

- Paying and gathering the credit: It uses different instruments like a promissory
note, cheques, and bill of exchange.
2.6 Objectives
A bank is a financial institution that is involved in borrowing and lending money.
Banks take customer deposits in return for paying customers an annual interest
payment. The bank then uses the majority of these deposits to lend to other customers
for a variety of loans. The difference between the two interest rates is effectively the
profit margin for banks. Banks play an important role in the economy for offering a
service for people wishing to save. Banks also play an important role in offering
finance to businesses that wish to invest and expand. These loans and business
investment are important for enabling economic growth. They also offer a wide
variety of services to individual and business customers, and to collect payments
including fees, charges and interest on the products and services provided to
customers for the purpose of generating profits for shareholders.

The objectives of the bank are:


1. Keep money safe for customers
2. Offer customers interest on deposits, helping to protect against money losing value
against inflation.
3. Lending money to firms, customers and homebuyers.
4.Offering financial advice and related financial services, such as insurance.
2.7 SWOT Analysis of the Bank

opportunities and threats. Specifically, SWOT is a basic, analytical framework that
assesses what an entity (usually a business, though it can be used for a place, industry
or product) can and cannot do, for factors both internal (the strengths and
weaknesses)

CHAPTER IV

ANALYSIS OF ACTIVITES PERFORMED

4.1 Customer service department


Customer service department (CSD) is also known as Front Desk, which is the
most important department for every Organization. It helps to develop good
impression to the customer because in this department we directly deal with
the department, answer their queries etc. Customer Service is the commitment
to provide service to external and internal customer that includes providing
information, technical support and quality of services on time. Customer
Satisfaction is the main wealth of every organization.

During the eight weeks of internship in Agricultural Development Bank Ltd,


the intern was assigned to Customer Service Department which helped intern
to gain knowledge of that department. Excellent customer service delivers
services or products in a way that allows the customer to access them in the
most efficient, fair, cost effective, and humanly satisfying and pleasurable
manner possible. Customer service is normally an integral part of a company’s
customer value proposition. The customer service process must be transparent.
If an organization can practice full disclosure in an obvious way in their
product information and their contracts, they are on the way to creating
customer loyalty.

The loyal customer always uses the product and services of the bank regularly
without
thinking of other alternatives. So, Loyal and regular customer is the main
source of a successful bank. If the customer experiences organization as one
where they were never surprised and never felt deceived, the organization will
create a competitive edge in a world where there is precious little confidence
in the customer service process. It is very important to know that a highly
satisfied customer stays loyal longer, buys more as the organization introduces
new product, pays less attention to competing brands and is less sensitive to
price. Having a significant number of this kind of customers is only possible
through the efficient functioning of customer service department of any
organization. It would then not be inappropriate to say that
this department is the key to success of any organization. CSD of NBL always
maintains good relationship with the customer and makes them loyal to the
organization. It performs various day-to-day operations. The basic task of

internship program are as follows.

5.3.1 Key Skill


The key skill learned by interne are:
❖ Learned about the procedure of cash deposit and withdraw.
❖ Learned about the different functioning of the bank also learn about the
KYC Policy.
❖ Filling bank transaction in passbook of account holder (if illiterate)
❖ Technology is one of the major factors that minimize the operational cost
and increase the efficiency.
❖ Learned about the general documents requirement in the various
departments.
❖ Learned how to deal with the customer and their queries on time help to
retain them and also helps to keep the customers loyal.
❖ Learned about the importance of time, personality and dedication towards
work.
❖ Learned about the procedure in account opening and closing of the
individual or the corporate.
❖ Learned about the procedure of distribution of ATM cards, balance
enquiries and account statement
❖ Learned to be calm under the adverse conditions and tactfully handle the
complexities.
❖ Record of remittance and filing the documents.

5.3.2 Attitude Learn


The interne developed the attitude about:
5.3.2.1 Punctuality
Time is a valuable thing, which helps an individual and an organization to
grow when
used wisely. Punctuality is necessary in an organization to successfully
achieve the set
goals on time. Similarly, serving valued customers on time makes customers
satisfied and creates a positive impression. Punctuality and time management
is equally important also for an individual to achieve his/her goals. At Nabil
either intern or staff everyone has to reach office at 9.30 am in office dress for
staffs and in formal dress for interns.

5.3.2.2 Sense of responsibility and accountability


Responsibilities are set to each and every employee on the basis of their
position and jobs they have to perform. Employees must understand the things
they are responsible and act accordingly to fulfill them. Similarly, they also
should have sense of accountability for the jobs they are responsible for. These
are things that help in effective and responsible working environment. At
Nabil intern are also assigned some tasks under the supervision of staffs for
which they have to be responsible and accountable.
5.3.2.3 Professionalism
The way of presenting oneself and behaving with others is a way of creating
impression of oneself on others. One's skill of communication, speech, body
gestures, attire, punctuality and compliance somewhat reflect how professional
he/she is at his/her job. Therefore, one must maintain professionalism while
performing jobs to create positive impression of one and to win trust of others.

5.3.2.4 Coordination and cooperation


In every work place coordination and cooperation is necessary. The success of
any organization depends upon how much they have coordination and
cooperation. At Nabil intern gained knowledge to coordinate the activities of
different department for the achievement of ultimate goal. In Nabil not only
inside branch but there is coordination between all branches as other branch
staffs used to help another branch if they ask. Staffs of branch used to say
Nabil is a learning centre here everyone coordinate and cooperate each other
to go ahead together for the success.
These are the learning's and understandings acquired from the internship at
Nabil Bank Limited, Teendhara Branch, which have broadened the knowledge
and provided fruitful experience. The exposure to real corporate life groomed
various skills like interpersonal skills, problem solving skills and work-related
skills which will obviously help in future career and life.

5.4 Feedback

It is another important task done under account operation. It is very rare that
you encounter an account-closing request at the customer desk at ADBL.
People close their accounts because of many reasons. The Procedures to close
an account are given
below:
Step1: The customer is asked the reasons for closing the account and tries to
convince
not to close the account by explaining the benefit of the account and the
charges taken
for closing the account.
Step2: If the customers are willing to close the account, he/she must fill up the
account closing form along with KYC specifying the reason.
Step3: Signature is verified and the client is then asked to return all his
account related belongings like ATM cards and the cheque book. These are
received by the teller and are cancelled or destroyed.

5.4.1 Feedback to the Organization

By working as an intern at Nabil Bank Ltd (NBL) and observing its working
environment and procedures some areas of improvement has been identified.
Therefore, the following measures are recommended to the bank for
enhancing its performance:
- Customer satisfaction is the most important thing in any organization. But it
was seen that some of the customers of the bank were not satisfied by the time
taken to render service. Thus taking this into consideration NBL should focus
more on providing quick and satisfactory services to the customers.
- NBL should increase the number of ATM machines both within and outside
the valley so as to attract more customers towards the bank.
- Adopting efficient marketing strategies to encourage more of the customers
will help NBL to successfully compete with other banks.
- NBL focuses on hiring outsource rather then employees so there is class
differentiation between permanent employees and outsource.

5.4.1 Feedback to the College/University


Internship is defined as learning proper supervision of the intern is essential.
Ongoing supervision of the intern is keys to the success of the internship
program. The college and university both institutions have provided us an
opportunity to gain some practical knowledge on what we are learning in our
classrooms. Theory unless made behavior have no use. Thus, this internship
program offered by college and university in fact has been proven to be the
first milestone in professional career.
The internship program is to be conducted by the students as per the
requirement of the university. It is also a responsibility of the college to
provide good and practical opportunities to the students to impart the real
world situations. There are some feedbacks to the college, which are

- College should make proper inspection of intern students in proper time and
in regular manner during the tenure of internship.
- College should send the supervision to the organization before, after and
during the internship program.
- During the internship program of the students, the college should visit the
respective organizations so as to know the performance of the intern.
- Due to oversupply of the students, it is very difficult to find the organization
to do internship. So college also searches some institution for internship.
- College should be in touch with the organization where students did their
internship so that the college can get timely feedback about the intern.
- College should also focus to the problem faced by intern student while
doing internship
