CHAP # 05
CONCLUSION:
Kashmir Bank, with its strong regional presence and deep local knowledge, plays a crucial role in the
financial landscape of Jammu and Kashmir. Its extensive branch network and loyal customer base form
the foundation of its strength. However, the bank faces significant challenges due to its geographical
limitations, political instability in the region, and potential technological lag compared to larger
competitors.
To sustain and enhance its market position, Kashmir Bank must leverage opportunities such as digital
transformation, strategic partnerships, and expansion beyond its current geographical boundaries.
Embracing technological advancements and improving digital banking services will be essential in
attracting a younger demographic and increasing operational efficiency.
While the bank can benefit from government initiatives aimed at financial inclusion and regional
development, it must also navigate threats from political unrest, economic downturns, regulatory
changes, and increasing competition. Proactively addressing cyber security risks will also be crucial in
safeguarding its operations and maintaining customer trust.
In conclusion, Kashmir Bank has the potential to build on its strengths and capitalize on emerging
opportunities. By addressing its weaknesses and mitigating threats, the bank can enhance its resilience,
expand its market presence, and continue to play a vital role in the economic development of Jammu
and Kashmir.

CHAP # 06
FINDING AND RECOMMENDATIONS
FINDINGS
The findings are the facts that I have discovered from the analysis of the Kashmir Bank and the
night of those finding I have given the suggestions which are realistic and adaptable for the
organization after critical analysis both the operation and financial data of Kashmir Bank I have
summarized the finding of the report. These analysis are majorly best on my particle working and
experience at the Kashmir Bank during mind internship.
44
MISS MANAGEMENT OF INTERNEES
At the branch there were no proper plan to train the internees.
45
JOB ROTATION
There should be a job rotation of employees so that they should know all the departments. This
will enhance the capacity of the employees as due to change in work. This will be refresh and motivate
employees.
MARKETING POLICY
Kashmir Bank should adopt marketing strategy and proportions strategy to promote the bank
audits product. The most important in my opinion is personal marketing. It is the most effective of all
when you think in term of branch level. But on the hall organizational level, it should arrange the
seminar within the bank and outside the bank. Banks should do more advertising through newspaper
and media and so channel of personal contacts.
Internship program
As I have mentioned in branch problems, there is no proper training program for internees, and
there is a lot of mismanagement in case of internees in Kashmir Bank main branch. Also there is a big
problem of understaffing in the branch. Therefore I suggest an internship program for the men branch.
My plan is about two different sorts of internees.
46
Graduate internees
As I have mentioned in my finding that the branches under staffed. Branch requires as least two
more employees to balance the work load. I have the devised a plane of inducting graduate internees
to manage the work load. I have devised a plane of inducting graduate internees to manage the work
load in the branch. As a lot of unemployed Commerce and business graduate or easily available. This
will benefit the branch to fill the stuff get with little cost and also helps to eradicate the unemployment
and the country.
Banking is a service industry, and the customer is the king in any service industry today. Specially
like the banking industry of Pakistan, where a customer has a number of choice to option from
different national, global and Islamic banks. Today the banking industry of Pakistan is facing a stiff
competition among different banks. Number of local bank has significantly grown. Many foreign Bank
with strong financial position and global produced some Islamic Bank. So being a service organization
operating in a stiff competitive environment, Kashmir Bank has to improve customer service and
relationship. I have observe during the internship that customer are not given proper attention care
and guidance. Most of the customer where disappointed with the services and staff of the branch.
Almost all the bank have appointed a CSO to facilitate and guide the customers but Kashmir Bank main
branch did not have a CSO of, which results in customer dissonance and problems for the staff.
