Comments on analysis of Dutch Bangla Bank Limited’s Annual report (Year 2018-2020).
Dutch Bangla Bank Limited (DBBL) is one of the largest and popular bank of our country. It
started it’s journey as a company in 1995 and listed on the stock exchange in 1996. DBBL is a
scheduled joint venture company between, local Bangladeshi parties by M Sahabuddin
Ahmed(founder and chairman) and by a Dutch company called FMO. Though DBBL has foreign
ownership, it has no foreign branch. It has a board of director consisting six members, where five
are male and other is female.
Now, if we talk about the ratio comparison of DBBL than we should say there are huge ups and
down in EPS (earning per share) and MPS (market per share) at the recent years. In 2018 EPS
was 21 BDT but in 2019 it falls dramatically over 8.7, which is not good for the company, and this
effects on MPS as well. In 2018 MPS was 144.4 BDT but in 2019 its turn into 71.3, which occurs
mainly for the falls of EPS. In 2020 EPS of the company getting little higher compare to 2019, its
turn into 10 BDT. But MPS keeps falling in 2020 as well. From this two ratio analysis we can say
that overall performance of the company is dropping and which impacted on company’s earnings.
Other ratio like- ROI (return on investment), ROA (return on asset), ROE (return on equity) etc.
are similar in those years. DBBL audited their annual report through Hoda Vasi Chowdhury & Co.
which is one of the biggest audit firm of 4 big auditor of our country. This are the financial analysis
of DBBL, For the year 18-20.
If we talk about analysis of HR related program like – training, employee relation, health and
safety issues, leave management, we should say they are trying to build a quality HR team to
expedite HR process for the betterment of the employees. In 2018 to 2020, they give training to
4030 employees each year regarding several issues. The management of DBBL are very much
concerned about the health of their employee, on this regard they provide instant medical facility
and giving medical allowances every month. They maintain govt. leave schedule for every
employee.
Overall their HR performance is good but they have to rectify some programs. Like- in training
they using lecture, seminar as a learning tool, which is not suitable for them cause they introducing
new tech based product regularly. So that employees are need to be train on the field, so they can
use simulation method of job training. And other thing is the recruitment and selection process of
DBBL is not clear on annual report, they should give basic system of recruitment for their
shareholders to know.
