Deposit and Deposit Mix
In Commercial banks operation starts
with mobilization of resources i.e. tapping of deposits and then they said
resources are deployed as loans, advances and investments for the purpose of
maximizing wealth which means deposits have dominance in Commercial bank’s
operation. That is why there is common saying that deposit is the lifeblood of
a bank. In keeping with this JBL attaches utmost importance to the deposit
mobilization campaign and to the optimal deposit mix for minimizing COF as far
as practicable. A stiff competition persisted in the market as to deposit
mobilization and there was a pressure on interest rate. Besides, instability in
political atmosphere was adversely affecting business, which stood as a
hindrance to the smooth operation of banks including deposit mobilization. Despite
all these unfavorable factors JBL was able to instill confidence in customers
as to its commitments to the depositors and borrowing customers
and thereby could mobilize a total deposit of tk.27307.94 million in

price. For healthy growth of business JBL puts emphasis on no cost and low cost
deposit all the time. A number of savings schemes are in place for mobilizing
long term deposits which can be planned to be invested in term loans in the
area lease finance, project finance and SME with a view to having better
yields. JBL’s such move will motivate the people to have good savings habit, as
well. The comparative position of deposit mix of the bank as on 31.12.2008 and

S – Denotes
Strength
W – Denotes
Weakness
O – Denotes

T – Denotes
Threat
à Strengths:
— Jamuna
Bank ltd has already established a favorable reputation in the banking industry
of the country. It is one of the leading private sector commercial banks in
Bangladesh. The bank has already shown a tremendous growth in the profits and
deposits sector.
— Jamuna Bank ltd has provided its banking
service with a top leadership and management position. The Board of Directors
headed by its Chairman Mr. Md. Nazrul Islam is a skilled person in business
world. Alamgir Kabir, the Advisor of the bank is a reputed senior chartered
accountant having 30 years vast experience in accounts, audit, and finance&
banking at home and abroad. Mr. Mohammed Lakiotullah is the Managing
Director of the bank management
team. The top management officials have all worked in reputed banks and their
years of banking experience, skill, and expertise will continue to contribute
towards further expansion of the bank.
— Jamuna Bank ltd has already achieved a high growth rate
accompanied by an impressive profit growth rate in 2008. The number of deposits
and the loans and advances are also increasing rapidly.
— Jamuna Bank ltd has an interactive corporate culture. The
working environment is very friendly, interactive and informal. And, there are
no hidden barriers or boundaries while communicate between the superior and the
employees. This corporate culture provides as a great motivation factor among
the employees.
à
Weaknesses:
The bank failed to provide a strong
quality-recruitment policy in the lower and some mid level position. As a
result the services of the bank seem to be Deus in the present days.
The poor service quality has become a
major problem for the bank. The quality of the
service at Jamuna Bank Ltd is higher than the Dhaka Bank, Prime Bank or
Dutch Bangla Bank etc. But the bank has to compete with the Multinational Bank
— In terms of promotional sector,
Jamuna Bank ltd has to more emphasize on that. They have to follow aggressive
marketing campaign.
à Opportunities:
— In order to reduce the business risk, Jamuna
Bank ltd has to expand their business portfolio. The management can consider
options of starting merchant banking or diversify into leasing and insurance
sector.
— The activity in the secondary financial market has direct
impact on the primary financial market. Banks operate in the primary financial
market. Investment in the secondary market governs the national economic
activity. Activity in the national economy controls the business of the bank.
— Opportunity in retail banking
lies in the fact that the country’s increased
population is gradually learning to adopt consumer finance. The bulk of
our population is middle class. Different types of retail lending products have
great appeal to this class. So a wide variety of retail lending products has a
very large and easily pregnable market.
—
A large number of private banks coming into the market
in the recent time. In this competitive environment Jamuna Bank ltd must expand
its product line to enhance its sustainable competitive advantage. In that
product line, they can introduce the ATM to compete with the local and the
foreign bank. They can introduce credit card and debit card system for their
potential customer.
—
In addition of those things, Jamuna Bank ltd can introduce
special corporate scheme for the corporate customer or officer who have an
income level higher from the service holder. At the same time, they can
introduce scheme or loan for various service holders.
—
And the scheme should be separate according to the
professions, such as engineers, lawyers, doctors etc
Threats:
— All
sustaining multinational banks and upcoming foreign and private banks pose
significant threats to Jamuna Bank ltd. If that happens the intensity of
competition will rise further and banks will have to develop strategies to
compete against these local and
foreign banks.
—
The default risks of all term loans have to be minimized
in order to sustain in the financial market. Because of default risk the
organization may become bankrupt. Jamuna Bank ltd has to remain vigilant about
this problem so that proactive strategies are taken to minimize this problem if
not eliminate.
—
The low compensation package of the employees from mid
level to lower level position is not able to keep the employee motivation. As a
result, good quality employees leave the organization and it effects the
organization as a whole.
Finally it can be said that, top management officials have experience skill and
proficiency on banking. JBL has got impressive decoration, for that it
creates the attention of the potential customers. Lovely environment boost up
capability of the employees. Besides these JBL has adequate capital, high
interest rate for DPS and Savings account and its goodwill. For poor
employment system, JBL is loosing its reputation. For this reason right people
are also not in right place for reference appointment. Another weakness is low
interest rate of FDR, for which JBL is loosing their customers. This analyzes
the opportunity, which will be available to a company in near future, such as
withdraw of tax, incentives, export, exemption and more credit facilities etc.
JBL can also adopt diversification strategy in expanding the business line into
leasing and insurance company. It analyzes
the threats, which may face the company such as international law, withdraw of
most favorable nation (MFN) and GSP facilities etc. Some contemporary,
multinational and upcoming banks are competitors of JBL. These bank poses
threat for JBL. So JBL should take necessary steps to compete with them.
Comparison of performance among JBL, AB bank ltd& HSBC Ltd.
AB
Bank is known as one of leading bank of the country since its commencement 27
years ago. It continues to remain updated with latest products and services,
considering consumer and client perspectives. AB Bank has thus been able to

across time. On the other hand, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (HSBC),
Bangladesh Branches (the Bank) commenced its banking operations in Bangladesh
on 3 December 1996 after obtaining its banking license from Bangladesh Bank on
17 April 1996. HSBC is incorporated in Hong Kong and its ultimate holding
company HSBC Holdings plc (the Group) is incorporated in England.

the diversified loan portfolio of HSBC Ltd grew by 1.5 % whereas JBL raise the

the other hand, Credit Rating Information and Services Limited (CRISL) upgrades
the rating of JBL Long term to A–(pronounced as single A minus) from

corporate entity with an adequate profile whereas AB bank maintained its sound

On the other hand, Credit Rating Agency of Bangladesh

Banking Corporation Limited, Bangladesh Branches. Commercial banks rated in the
long term AAA belong to ‘Highest Safety’cohort. Banks rated in this category

AB Bank ahead from JBL in terms of dividend payment, they declared a 200% stock
dividend to its shareholders whereas JBL has declared 23.50%, in contrast, HSBC

not declare any dividend in Bangladesh.

carbon copy of the forwarding and deposit slip of the Cheque in the OBC file.
Commission for collection:
Inward bills for collection (IBC)
When the banks collect bills as an
agent of the collecting branch, the system is known as IBC. In this case the bank will work as an agent of the collection
bank. The branch receives a forwarding
letter and the bill.
Procedure of IBC:
IBC against OBC: To receive the OBC
Cheque first we have to give entry in the IBC Register .The IBC number should
put on the forwarding of the OBC with date.

amendment to be made in the L/C, but this amendment must be made within the
consent of exporter, otherwise amendment will have no validity.
Sometimes the importer may not rely

bank. By adding such confirmation, confirming banks undertakes the liability to
honor the bill of exchange of exporter.

the price covering all his expenses until the goods duty packed are delivered
“on board”, the carrying vessel named and arranged by the buyer with the
freight and the insurance being paid by the buyer. The importer bears any cost
incurred and all risks from the time the goods are placed on board inclusive of
those arising out of the ship’s failure on berth.
