CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
They are essential to the economies' payment and settlement processes. Banks provide
investment services and products, such as the ability to purchase and sell bonds, stocks,
and other financial instruments. In order to assist clients in managing their portfolios, they
could also offer investment advisory services. Customers can purchase and sell foreign
currencies for international trade, tourism, or investment purposes through the foreign
exchange services provided by many banks. Customers can keep important documents and
valuables in safe deposit boxes that banks frequently offer. Financial advice on
investments, retirement planning, insurance, and other areas of personal or business finance
is provided by certain banks.
Some of the online banking services As a result of technological developments, banks now
provide electronic banking services that enable clients to view and manage their accounts
from a distance, which include online, mobile, and ATM banking. A certain kind of bank
called a central bank is essential to a nation's monetary policy and money supply control.
They are in charge of preserving economic stability and frequently act as the "bank of
banks". Because they facilitate the flow of money, provide financial intermediation, and
promote economic progress, banks are essential to the operation of modern economies.

Government regulators control them to guarantee the financial sector's integrity, stability,
and protection of consumers.
Investing is an effective way to increase your wealth by forgoing current income in favor
of future profits. However, there is risk involved in investing, therefore one must exercise
caution when choosing where to place one's funds. Making a portfolio is therefore crucial.
Combining two or more securities to optimize profits and minimize risk is called a
portfolio.
class development banks (Social Development Bank and Gulmi Bikas Bank) merged with
Global IME Bank Ltd in year 2013. Later, in the year 2014, Global IME Bank made another
merger with Commerz and Trust Bank Nepal Ltd. (an “A” class commercial bank). During
2015-16, Global IME Bank Limited acquired Pacific Development Bank Limited (a "B"
Class Development Bank) and Reliable Development Bank Limited (a "B" Class
Development Bank). During 2019-20, Global IME Bank Limited acquired Hathway
Finance Limited (a “C” class finance company), merged with Janata Bank Nepal Limited
(an “A” class commercial bank) in year 2019 and merged with Bank of Kathmandu on
January 9, 2023, to become the biggest bank in Nepal.
Global Bank Limited (GBL) was established in 2007 as an ‘A’ class commercial bank in
Nepal which provided entire commercial banking services. The bank was established with
the largest capital base at the time with paid up capital of NPR 1.0 billion. The paid-up
capital of the bank has since been increased to NPR 35.77 billion. The bank's shares are
publicly traded as an 'A' category company in the Nepal Stock Exchange.
At present, the bank has 277 Branchless Banking facilities, 67 Extension and Revenue
Collection Counters, and 354 branches functioning all throughout Nepal. Every branch of
the bank has been designed to be a full-service establishment, providing a wide variety of
financial services to its patrons. Additionally, the bank has 378 ATMs around the nation
that are positioned thoughtfully for patron convenience. Global IME Bank has NPR
57,042.31 million in authorized capital and NPR 36,128.7 million in paid-up capital.

Nepal Rastra Bank's stringent regulations have contributed to a notable improvement in the
portfolio management of the country's banking industry during the past ten years. This
essay attempted to use both qualitative and quantitative methodologies to describe the
current credit portfolio management practices of Nepalese commercial banks. This study
examined bank concentration for credit portfolio management by examining loan
concentration by security, product, and sector, and the researcher discovered a variety of
6
results. Additionally, this study attempts to offer some solutions for credit portfolio-related
issues Malla (2017).
According to Wagle (2013), the study's main goals were to determine the commercial
banks' investor portfolio, evaluate the risk and return of investment securities, and identify
the ideal portfolio for NEPSE security trading. The degree to which commercial banks use
the portfolio idea to manage risk and return is another useful finding from this study. The
primary goals of the research are to determine the commercial banks' investor portfolio and
evaluate the risk and return of investment securities. According to him, the majority of
commercial banks want to place their money in less hazardous and more liquid industries.
Because loans and advances provide stable interest income, they are a better investment
than shares, debentures, and government securities. Commercial banks allocate their
capital, including deposits, to successful industries. Due to their success, all banks are able
to draw in investors. Every bank has an estimated return of more than 45%.The banks are
able to win over people's confidence by offering investors a strong return. Every bank has
aggressive stock as its beta values are all greater than 1. by carefully observing the market
and analysing various tools and methods.
Koehn and Santamero (1980) emphasize the critical link between the risk profile of a bank's
portfolio, the level of retained capital, and the probability of bankruptcy, highlighting the
need for a clear understanding of these interconnections to effectively evaluate bank capital
regulation. By optimizing the allocation of assets, banks aim to achieve the optimal mean
rate of return per unit of capital while managing variance. This allocation among assets
serves as a pivotal choice variable in the study, ensuring that the analysis accounts
comprehensively for risk and return considerations. Consequently, this research endeavors
to advance understanding without sacrificing depth regarding the intricate dynamics
between portfolio risk, capital regulation, and financial performance within the banking
sector.

1.7.4.2 Mean
The most basic and frequently used way to measure a mean, or the average, is the arithmetic
mean. It only requires adding up all of the numbers in a group and dividing that total by
the total number of numbers in the series.

From the table no 1 the NEPSE Index Point in millions of rupees over the fiscal years. In
fiscal 2074/75 the NEPSE index was at 1212.36 million rupees. In fiscal 2075/76
experienced a slight increase to 1259.02 million rupees, marking a growth of 3.8% over
the previous fiscal year. In fiscal year 2076/77 further increase to 1362.35 million rupees,
representing a growth of 8.2% compared to the previous year. In fiscal year 2077/78 the
NEPSE index surged significantly to 2883.41 million rupees, indicating a remarkable
growth of 111.65% over the previous fiscal year. In fiscal year 2078/79 there was a notable
decline in the index, dropping to 2009.47 million rupees, which reflects a decrease of
30.31% compared to the previous year.
In summary, there was fluctuation in the NEPSE index over the years, with notable growth
in some years and a significant decline in others. The year 2077/78 stands out as a period
of extraordinary growth, while 2078/79 experienced a substantial downturn. These
fluctuations could be influenced by various factors including economic conditions, market
sentiment, government policies, and global events affecting the financial markets.

Overall, this data reflects the fluctuating performance of the Nepalese stock market over
the specified fiscal years. It demonstrates periods of growth, stability, and decline,
14
highlighting the dynamic nature of the market influenced by various economic, political,
and market-specific factors.
DPS is often used by investors and analysts to evaluate a company's dividend payout policy
and its financial performance. A higher DPS may indicate that a company is profitable and
has excess cash flow that it can distribute to its shareholders, which may be viewed
positively by investors. However, a company with a high DPS may also be seen as less
financially stable and more vulnerable to economic downturns
2.3.3 Dividend
Dividend refers to a distribution of a portion of a company's earnings to its shareholders,
as determined by the company's board of directors. Dividends are typically paid out in cash,
although they may also be paid in the form of additional shares of stock or other assets
15
Dividends may be declared and paid on a regular basis, such as quarterly or annually, or
they may be paid as one-time special dividends. Some companies may also choose to
reinvest their earnings back into the company rather than paying dividends. There are
several types of dividends that a company may choose to pay to its shareholders but here
we used to analysis this only two types of dividend.

Dividend was 10%. In fiscal 2078/79 MPS was Rs. 251.4, Cash Dividend was 10.6% and
stock Dividend was 3%. In summary, the Market Price per Share (MPS) fluctuated over
the years, with varying trends. Cash Dividend percentages some years having higher
percentages than others years. Stock Dividend percentages also fluctuated, showing
different levels of distribution of dividends in the form of additional shares. Total Dividend,
which is the combined value of Cash Dividend and Stock Dividend, also varied across the
fiscal years. These dividend distributions reflect the company's financial performance and
its policy regarding returning profits to shareholders. The fluctuations could be influenced
by factors such as company profitability, investment opportunities, and shareholder
expectations.

dividend: 10.6 Rs. The MPS decreased further, and the total dividend also decreased to
10.6 Rs. per share, reflecting a continued decrease in dividend payout to shareholders. In
summary, the data illustrates the relationship between the Market Price per Share and the
Total Dividend payout over the specified fiscal years for GBIME. Despite fluctuations in
the MPS, the total dividend payout fluctuated inconsistently, showing variations in the
company's dividend distribution policy or its financial performance over time.
2.3.6 Return on Investment Ratio (ROI) analysis of Global Ime Bank Limited
The Return on Investment (ROI) ratio is a financial metric used to evaluate the profitability
of an investment relative to its cost. It's calculated by dividing the net profit from the
investment by the initial investment cost and expressing the result as a percentage. The
organization's profit increases by a higher ratio. The ROI ratio calculates the effective rate
at which the company may recoup its investment. This type of approach gauges the
organization's profitability situation.

The ARR is calculated by subtracting the initial investment amount from the final value of
the investment, dividing that figure by the initial investment amount, and then multiplying
by 100 to express the result as a percentage. The formula for calculating the ARR can be
expressed as follows:
ARR = ((Final Value of Investment - Initial Investment) / Initial Investment) x 100

significant fluctuations over the observed fiscal years. Notable growth was
observed in 2077/78, with the index point reaching 2883.41 million Rupees,
corresponding to a growth percentage of 111.65%. This suggests a period of good
market activity. However, in 2078/79, the NEPSE index witnessed a substantial
decrease, falling to 2009.47 million Rupees, representing a negative growth
percentage of -30.31%. This indicates a downturn or correction in the market.
• From the table no 2 and figure no 2 find out the Global IME Bank Limited (GBIME)
distributed dividends to its shareholders over the fiscal years. The dividend
distribution varied, with changes in both cash and stock dividends. While the total
dividend amount remained relatively stable, the distribution between cash and stock
dividends fluctuated across years.

CHAPTER III
SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
3.1 Summary
Development banking institutions represent an essential part of the economy since they
have been established to protect the public's deposits and use them for investments and
loans. Development banks gather different financial resources from the public and
distribute them to individuals involved in the nation's business and economic endeavors.
Development banks are those financial institutions that deal with taking deposits from
individuals and organizations, lending money secured by securities, and offering
administrative and technical support to trade, commerce, and industrial firms.
Development banks are characterized as financial institutions that carry out the broadest
array of financial operations of any company in the country's economy. Development
banks supply domestic resources to support the economies of developing nations.
One of the hardest jobs for any financial institution is managing a portfolio. The banking
sector is extremely competitive these days, but there are very few opportunities to invest
without being well-positioned in the market. For the bank to make money, its resources
must be allocated to a variety of profitable investment opportunities. Investors face risk
due to uncertain profit margins; therefore, in order to reduce risk, investors should diversify
their holdings across many industries. Diversification of assets across several industries
reduces portfolio risk.
From the table no 1 and figure no 1 provides the movement of the NEPSE (Nepal Stock
Exchange) index over fiscal years 2074/75 to 2078/79. It shows the NEPSE index points
in millions and the percentage growth compared to the previous fiscal year. The index
experienced fluctuating growth rates, with notable increases in 2077/78 and a significant
decrease in 2078/79. From the Table 2 and figure no.2 presents an analysis of the total
dividend of Global IME Bank Limited (GBIME) over the five fiscal years. It includes the
market price per share (MPS), cash dividend percentage, stock dividend percentage, and
total dividend in Nepalese Rupees. The dividend distribution varied each year, with
27
changes in both cash and stock dividends. From the table no 3 and figure no. 3 illustrates
the year and price movement of GBIME, depicting the annual Average Rate of Return
(ARR) for each fiscal year. It also provides the total ARR, mean ARR, standard deviation,
and coefficient of variation. Despite fluctuations in ARR, the overall performance shows a
positive mean ARR with considerable volatility, as indicated by the standard deviation and
coefficient of variation.
In summary, these tables and figures offer insights into the stock market performance of
NEPSE and the dividend distribution and price movement of GBIME over the specified
fiscal years. They provide valuable data for investors and analysts to assess the financial
health and trends of these entities within the Nepalese market.
3.2 Conclusion
The most sensible and significant component of development banks is portfolio
management. Since these banks must function with little capital, they must be astute in
selecting and allocating assets that maximize profits while lowering credit and operational
risk. It is a difficult undertaking for development banks to ensure appropriate portfolio
management, which will always have a big impact on the profitability and operational
effectiveness of the bank.
On the basis of provided data offers a comprehensive view of the financial performance
and market dynamics of both the NEPSE index and Global IME Bank Limited (GBIME)
over the fiscal years 2074/75 to 2078/79. The NEPSE index exhibited fluctuating growth
rates over the observed period. Notable increases were recorded in 2077/78, with a growth
percentage of 111.65%, reflecting significant market activity. However, a substantial
decrease of -30.31% was observed in 2078/79, indicating a period of market downturn or
correction. GBIME's dividend distribution varied across fiscal years, with changes in both
cash and stock dividends. While the total dividend amount remained relatively stable, the
distribution between cash and stock dividends fluctuated. The annual Average Rate of
Return (ARR) for GBIME fluctuated, with positive returns in most years. The mean ARR
of 0.117 indicates overall positive performance, albeit with considerable volatility, as
indicated by the standard deviation and coefficient of variation.

3.3 Recommendations
On the basis of the study, following recommendations have been made as suggestions to
overcome the weaknesses and to strengthen the existing investment portfolio of Global Ime
Banks in Nepal.
Diversification: Investors should consider diversifying their portfolios across different
asset classes and sectors to mitigate risks associated with market fluctuations.
Diversification can help balance the impact of volatile market movements, as evidenced
by the varying performance of the NEPSE index over the observed fiscal years.
Risk Management: Given the volatility in the NEPSE index and the fluctuating
