Of lending or investment of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or
Otherwise and withdraw-able by cheque, draft order.

services to the charitable organization such as Edhi Trust, Shaukat Khanum Memorial
Trust. Similarly it also sponsors recreational activities such as sports and refreshment.

PROVIDING EMPLOYMENT:
Unemployment is our national problem. The bank is playing a very useful role to
tackle it. MCB have a vast network of 1300 branches, with a staff of round about 16,000
people working in it.
MODERNIZATION OF BRANCHES:In order to attract the customer, huge expenditures were incurred on computerization

some very special products, exactly in line with the needs of different classes of
customers. Example is Rupee Travelers Cheque (RTC), Capital growth Certificate, PLS
365 Accounts, Mahana Khushali Scheme etc.
DECENTRALIZATION OF AUTHORITY:
In order to avoid the unnecessary delay in decision making, MCB has adopted the
policy of decentralization, where the General Manager, the Regional Manager and the
Branch Manager have been empowered by the Head Office to make some important
decision within the limit of their respective powers. This way a lot of problems faced by
MCB customers are solved at the grass root level without referring it to the Head Office
Karachi. Ultimately customers problems are solved well in time, which has resulted in
tremendous growth of the bank in all aspects.
EFFECTIVE USE OF ELECTRONIC MEDIA:
For the first time in the banking history of Pakistan a very effective campaign was
launched on TV, Radio, reputed newspapers, journals, bills etc. MCB changed its
monogram, after a long trial of selection. Impressive slogans were developed, very
modern and attractive ads were presented to the general public. Above all, the services of
electronic media were hired in the prime time and the messages were repeated over and
over again. As that was a take off point for MCB, therefore, very heavy expenditures
were incurred, on development and repetition of some very useful and attractive
advertisements.
COMPATIBLE PACKAGE:
After privatization the staff salaries have been revised three times. The first time
was 35% , the second was 32%, and the last one was 20%. Now on the aggregate the

branches, and administrative offices all over the country and outside the country. So it has
no specific organizational structure, we can make so many structures on different basis

Span of Control
MCB is a very large organization with many branches in different areas of the
country and different divisions under the Head Office. So it is managed through broad
span of control with decentralization of authority. All the Executives, including Senior
Executive Vice Presidents (SEVP`s), General Managers (GM`s), Regional Managers

control purposes. So there is a mix of centralized and decentralized authority in this
respect.

The money will either come in or go out of the bank. Its record should be kept.
Cash department performs all these functions. The deposits of all customers of the bank
are controlled by means of ledger account. Every customer has his own ledger account
and separate ledger cards.
b. PAYMENTS
Payments made by cash department can be easily explained under the following
headings.
CHEQUES
Check is defined as a written order of a depositor upon a bank to pay to order of a
designated party of to the bearer, a specified sum of money on demand.
KINDS OF CHECKS
1. BEARER CHEQUESIt is cashable at counter of the bank, this check can also be collected through
clearing.

It is also cashable at the counter but its holder must satisfy the banker that he is
the proper man to collect the payment of the check and he has to show his identity
through an account holder of the bank. It can also be collected through clearing.

account of the person to whom check was issued and debited from the account of
-

the person who issues the check.
ISSUING A CHEQUEKBOOK
One of the functions of account opening department is to issue the check books. When
any customer applies for a new checkbook he has to present the checkbook issue
requisition slip with his two signatures to the officer concerned, the officer will verify the
signature and on the verification of signature, the checkbook is issued.
The saving account (PLS) checkbook consists of 10 pages while the current
account consists if 20, 50, of 100 pages. An excise duty of Rs. 2 per leaf is charged.
MCB RUPEES TRAVELERS CHECK (RTC)
RTCs are used only in Pakistan. These are as good as cash because with RTC one
has the power to purchase and a feeling of security as well.
RTCs are acceptable at major shops, travel agents, hotels, business establishments
and all MCB branches. One does not have to be a MCB account holder for purchasing
RTCs.
RTCs are a safe and convenient way to conduct every day business. The person
goes to MCB branch and asks for the issuance of RTC. Then he deposits the money on
cash counter and provides the receipt to RTC officer. He issues RTC in his name stamp.
The buyer must sign the checks because if blank checks are lost, he will lose protection.
RTCs are in two different denominations i.e. Rs. 10,000 and Rs. 50,000 per leaf.
One can purchase RTC of Rs.50, 000 at maximum at one time from one branch. RTC

MAIL TRANSFER
When a customer requests the bank to transfer his money from this bank to any other
bank or the branch of some other bank in the city, outside the city or outside the country,
the first thing he had to do is to fill an application form. In which he states that I want to
transfer the money from this bank to that bank by mail. If the customer is the account
holder of the bank, it will debit his account and the concerned officer will fill the six
different forms to make the transfer complete. The five forms used for this purpose are
listed below:
1 Branch mail transfer form.
2 Issuing branch register copy.
3 Debit voucher.
4 Beneficiarys advice
5 Advice to customer.
If the customer is not the account holder of this bank, then firstly, he has to deposit
the money and then above procedure will adopted to transfer his money.
DEMAND DRAFT
Demand draft is another way of transfer of money from one bank to another bank. Unlike
pay order, a form is required to be filled for the issuance of the demand draft in which
necessary particulars about the beneficiary and the sender are given. The sender deposits
the amount of DD plus commission and other charges on the bank counter, from where he
is given a receipt and in accordance with this receipt he is issues a demand draft.
After issuing the DD, the remittance department sends credit advice to the branch
to which the DD is sent, when the responsible branch receives the DD from the
originating branch, they credit it, and when the DD comes for clearing they debit the
account.
MCB deals with two types of DDs.
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
15/42
1. OPEN DD :
Open DD is one which is payable directly at the counter and there is no need of
crediting it to the account.
2. CROSS DD :
Cross DD is one which is paid through account. The amount of the DD is credited
to the favoring account and then he can transact in ordinary way through check.
DD charges in MCB vary proportionately with the amount of DD. In MCB
different charges of DD in Pak Rupees are as follows:
Up to 10,000 is 15%
From 10,000 to 100,000 is 11%
From 100,000 to 500,000 is 0.5%
In addition to above charges a fixed excise duty of Rs. 2 per draft is charged.
TELEGRAPHIC TRANSFER (TT).
With the changing requirements of customers, MCB has introduced a faster mode
of transfer of money. Like DD the sender is required to apply through a form in which he
will give all the necessary details about the sender and the beneficiary. The sender
deposits the amount of DD plus commission and other charges on the bank counter, from
where he is given a receipt, the remittance officials send a telegram to the concerned
branch and they make payment to the customer. Vouchers are sent by ordinary mail to
keep the record. On TT, no excise duty is charged only commission and telegram charges
are charged

INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCES
Credit extension is the most important activity for all financial institutions, because it is
The main source of earning. However, at the same time, it is a very dangerous task
Because of the risks. Now it is quite clear that risks cannot be eliminated but certainly be
minimized largely with certain techniques.
In order to reap the full advantages of credit and to make good decisions, the following
aspects must be given due consideration.
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
17/42
A. QUALITIES OF GOOD BORROWERS:-
A good borrower is also a good depositor, therefore, in order to conduct our test
we must analyze the 7 Cs qualities before extending credit, which are as follows.
1. Character of the borrower:-
An individual has two types of character.
A. Moral character:-
We must certify whether the borrower is morally sound or not. For example, we
must know whether he is a drinker, or is he a liar etc. A good borrower must have sound
moral character.
B. Commercial Character:-
Here we look upon his dealings with the financial institutions of a business
community. We guess the character of individual from his family background, his social
community and from open market. In case of old customers, the record of
accomplishment will guide us in the matter. Thus we may add that the sobriety, the
promptness of payment, good habits and personality. The ability and willingness to carry
a project from beginning to the end and reputation of the people, with whom he deals,
will go to make the character of a customer.
2. Capacity:-
It is the ability to meet obligations when due, secondly we must see whether, the
individual or business entity is having the borrowing capacity i.e. the individual is not a
minor and in case of Limited Companies, the memorandum and articles of association
allows the directors to borrows.
Further to it, technical capacity should also be assessed.
3. Capital:-
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
18/42
Capital is necessary because it is the main shock-absorbing portion of a business;
secondly it compels the businessman to make all out efforts for success of the business.
The capital should be adequate i.e. neither it should be more than his requirement to
avoid the wastage of it, nor it should be less, otherwise he will not be able to run the
business on full scale. In case of under utilized capacity, there will be less profit and
consequently low repayment ability.
4. Condition:-
Both economic and political conditions of the country must be heeded upon. In
case of bad economic condition of the industry, such as textile industry, financing will be
very risky and similar is the case of political conditions. In case of adverse economic and
political condition, the chances of recovery will be remote.
5. Collateral:-
Collateral security is essential because in the case of failure of our above-cited
techniques, due to uncertain conditions, the bank will resort to the collateral securities,
held against for realization of their outstanding.
6. Country Risk:-
If there is political uncertainty, a war has broken in the country then realization of
loans will be difficult.
7. Currency Risk:-
It should be wise to consider fluctuation of currency i.e. whether the subject
currency will appreciate or depreciate.
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
19/42
B. QUALITIES OF GOOD LENDING
An advance may be good or bad. However, a good lending must have the
following qualities.
i. Safety:-
Safe lending is most essential. In case we make the decision purely on merit basis,
then our lending will possess high degree of safety and the risks will be minimized to
the least possible level.
ii. Liquidity:-
Shorter the period of advance more liquid it will be consequently the risk of default
will be minimum. Thus, working capital finances are more liquid then term loans.
iii. Dispersal:-
It will be highly advisable to diversify your risk by making different types of
industries and clients instead of one kind of customer. In such case, your risk will be
spread over several sectors and in case of failure of one sector; the bank will not be
faced with disaster.
PROCEDURE OF APPLYING FOR LOAN
In MCB procedure for obtaining loan is:
Any customer who applies for loan he/she should have an account (usually
current account) with the MCB branch concerned. That account should be in running
position because when applying for a loan, the branch prepares a proposal of his account.
That proposal is sent to General Manager Office for necessary action.
If limit comes under discretionary power of General Manager then he / she may
approve. If it is above the limit of GM Office it is sent to Credit Management Division of
Head Office. If the amount is above the power of Credit Manager Division then president
of MCB, decides the case.

-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
22/42
promissory note.
Guarantee means when third party assumes the liability for repayment of loan.
. This facility is provided by the bank, that some times any government or party working
in private sector needs a bank guarantee for the purpose that if the party defaults the bank
will pay.
In guarantee there are three main characters, these are
1. Principal: the person who is taking loan.
2. Financial Institution: it gives loan can also be called tender or creditor.
3. Guarantor: it gives surety about repayment of loan for the principal.
There are two types of contract in guarantee. One is between principal and financial
institution which is a legal agreement binding by law. Second, one is between the
financial institution and the guarantor. Guarantor responsibility is primary when the
principal debtor commits default.
INDEMNITY
It is a contract when a person by himself makes a commitment to save the other party
from any sort of loss caused to him by his acts or acts of other people. In this case, twoparties are involved that is financial institution and indemnifier. When a bank is providing
the guarantee facilities, they require a counter guarantee from the applicant and this
guarantee for safeguarding the interest of the bank. The counter guarantee provided to the
bank from the applicant is in the form of undertaking. If the applicant defaults, the bank
starts legal procedures. However, if the applicant is applying for a guarantee of one
hundred thousand. Rupees and deposits a margin of the same amount. Then there is no
need of the legal procedures.

Chapter 5
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
There is not a single country in the world, which is self-sufficient. There is constant
inflow and outflow of goods and services from one country to another. When goods and
services are exported to another country, the money is to be received from foreigners, and
when they are imported, money is to be paid to them. The receiving or making payments
to person, firm or government in foreign countries involves many problems. First, the
transfer of the means of payments across national boundaries. Second the conversion of
one country into that of another country. The problems of international payments would
not have so diversified if there has been only one common currency acceptable in all
countries of the world. As every country has its own measure of value; U.K., its pound,
Germany its Mark, Japan its Yen, America its Dollar, Pakistan its Rupee, etc., so currency
of one country is not legal tender in other countries. Thus the problem of the conversion
of the currency of one country into that of other has arisen.

IMPORTANCE OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE
Foreign exchange reserves show the financial strength and the stage of development
of the economy.
The acceptance of currency at a predetermined rate makes the international trade easy.
The foreign exchange balances of a country directly affect the rates of exchange. A
hard currency nation has stability in foreign exchange rate.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE MARKET
A foreign exchange market is a place where foreign exchange transactions takeplace. In words of Kindle Berger, foreign exchange market is a place where foreign
moneys are bought and sold. It is a part of money market in financial centers. In
Pakistan there is no foreign exchange market as defined above. Here the most important
component of foreign exchange market is Central Bank of the country or its authorized
dealers. All exporters are required to surrender the foreign exchange earnings to the
Central Bank of its authorized dealers within the specified period and then receive local
currency in exchange of that. Similarly the importers have to pay for the imported goods.
They can get the foreign exchange from the Central Bank or its authorized dealers for
making payments to the exporter.
SECURED ADVANCES: TYPES OF SECURITIES
STOCK EXCHANGE SECURITIES:
Stock exchange securities include all securities issued by public and private
enterprises, public authorities and Governments. Banker generally considers stock
exchange securities as acceptable securities for advancing money. In case of
necessity, such securities can be realized without much difficulty, and it is
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
25/42
comparatively easy to ascertain the value of most stock exchange securities.
Similarly, it is easy to determine their title. Above all, some of these securities are
fully negotiable.
NEGOTIABLE SECURITIES:
There are certain stock exchange securities which are considered fully negotiable.
According to the Negotiable Instruments Act, a negotiable instrument mean a promissory
note, bill of exchange or Cheques payable, either to order or bearer. In addition, certain
other instruments are considered negotiable instruments by mercantile custom judicially
recognized. Securities like bonds payable to bearer, share warrants, debentures payable to

SWOT ANALYSIS MCB CREDITS
MCB is one of the big give banks of Pakistan, which was privatized back in 1992. It has a
strong advances / credits portfolio; Rs. 180,232 M as reflected in its latest balance sheet
of Annual Report 2005. It has shown handsome rise in its advances over the years,
despite the increasing competition and introduction of new banks and branches in the
country. A brief SWOT analysis of MCB in terms of credits follows:
STRENGTHS
MCB has a rich and old history of 58 years corresponding with the age of our
country. This in itself is the fundamental reason why it is such a strong and sound
financial institution. A sound image of MCB is there in the minds of the public
and the customers think of it as stable organization to bank with.
Building the tallest building in Pakistan by the name of MCB Tower is a clear
indication that MCB is a market leader in the banking industry. It has incorporated
state of the art technology and the latest equipment; symbolizing and maintaining
the fact that it has always been the pioneer of the banking sector in terms of
Information Technology.
MCB with its vast network of above 1200 branches is another big competitive
advantage that it has; very few do possess such a big set up. In terms of credits, allthese are the starting strengths why MCB is able to advance out loans in the first
place; customers are maintaining their long time relationships with the bank and
new clientage is regularly brought in.

38/42

8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
39/42
much to customers dislike, and in comparison with the other banks speedy and
quick process. The fact is due to the centralized setup that MCB maintains in
terms of its decision making. Hardly decisions are made at the branch level,
where the customer comes into interaction; hence the slowness and time
consuming nature of the credits process at MCB.
Turnover of employees has also been a constant problem for MCB in the recent times.
This has been especially the case with the younger lot of the bank, who have been
able to capitalize on the trainings and growth that it had been able to gain at
MCB, and eventually switching over. This is common in banking sector, but has
been especially rooted in MCB owing to the defective HRM policies and lack of
retention of young employees who could become key future managers and
loyalist decision makers. All this has affected the bank in the broader sense;
eventually how credits end up being done.
OPPORTUNITIES
Products have been offered by MCB only at the three big cities viz. Karachi, Lahore
and Islamabad. A strong opportunity lies in the idea that these can be introduced
in all the main cities of the country, if not into every city. Business Sarmaya and
Pyara Gharare typical examples of this opportunity.
Islamic Banking has been started by many Pakistani banks; in fact MCBs Islamic
Banking is limited only to a couple of cities. The growing trend of customers
seeking out to such institutions breeds an opportunity for this bank to establish a
strong foothold in this segment too. With this would initiate an R & D at MCB to
design and tailor credits and deposits products for customers; paving way for a
-
8/14/2019 Chapter 1 Brief History
40/42
door of opportunities for MCB to handsomely earn from.
THREATS
With the entrance and establishment of so many banks including foreign bank
branches in the country, MCB will have to maintain its position in the industry
and hopefully not succumb to this stiff competition. Some of the worlds top
banks are planning to set-up branches in the country. MCB would be competing
with top class financial institutions in the near times; by no means an easy task.
So many banks with so many products are they of credits or deposits, and so much to
offer would be a definite threat to MCB and its top brains. It has to keep on
evolving and marketing new products to survive and in fact keep on profiting
highly and rising as it has been doing over the years.
Banks have been into so much specialization of job assignments in their banks.
Employees are expected to do very specialized types of tasks; leading to increased
efficiency and greater productivity. Credits have been broken into specialized
parts in these banks; depending on the segment: SME, Corporate, Consumer, etc.
Moreover division of labor has been done and this has made them seem very
professional and efficient in the clients perspective.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Banking sector in Pakistan has grown very fast in the past few years. The industry has
shown immense growth, activity and progress. Banks have profited highly, consumers
have been entertained and activity and growth has taken place in some other industries as
well.
Credits being important for every bank; an all important asset in its balance sheet and one
earning the highest revenue in the form of markup and commissions on the income
statement. For that matter MCBs credit policies are important and key for how the bank
would progress in the coming times.
MCB is a conservative lender and credit policies are likewise. In this it claims that it has
been able to maintain a healthy and sound portfolio of credits; prudent lending has
resulted in regular finances, and a minimum of bad debts portion.
In fact, MCB is earning much more than many of the other banks who have been on the
aggressive side; those with a higher loan portfolio but a likewise sizeable bad debt
portion. These competitors have higher loans / deposits ratios, making them face liquidity
problems much sooner than they could anticipate.
As a conclusion, MCB has been fairly good in its credit lines and policies. It has stood
different than the others by staying conservative against being progressive or aggressive.
It has focused on long term stability and growth, but with a simultaneous good short term
progress.
