During my two months study, Ive tried my best to get knowledge about their overall banking operation with special emphasis on their performance. The Banking Industry in Bangladesh is characterized by strict regulations and monitoring from the central governing body, the Bangladesh Bank. The main concern is that currently there are many banks for the market to sustain. As a result, the market will only accommodate those banks that can transpire the most competitive and profitable in the future. Currently the major financial institutions under the banking system include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Bangladesh Bank Private Commercial Banks State Owned commercials Bank Islamic banks Non-bank financial Institutions, etc.
Of these, there are four state owned commercial banks (NCB), 5 specialized banks, 11 foreign banks, and 26 domestic private banks, 4 Islamic banks currently operating in Bangladesh.

FIGURE: 1 Generally, the commercial banks and finance companies provide a myriad of banking products/services to cater to the needs of their customers. However, the Bangladesh banking industry is characterized by the tight banking rules and regulations set by the Bangladesh Bank, All banks and financial institutions are highly governed and controlled under the Banking Companies Act-1993.
The range of banking products and financial services is also limited in scope; all local banks must maintain a 4% Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR), which is non-interest bearing and a 16% Secondary Liquidity Requirement (SLR). With the liberalization of markets, competition among the banking products and financial services seems to be growing more intense each day. In addition, the banking products offered in Bangladesh are fairly homogeneous in nature due to the tight regulations imposed by the central bank. Competing through differentiation is increasingly difficult and other banks quickly imitate any innovative banking service.

I have faced several problems during the preparation of this repot. Some of the limitations of this report are mentioned below: a.

So, I have covered only some important topics of credit management and furnished only the gist here. b. Engaged in work: Every man of the branch was so busy in their work, so they were not able to provide sufficient time to make me clear about different topics. c. Time constraint: I had to prepare this report within a period less than three months which was not enough to prepare such a report. Because collection and arrangement of information is a time consuming job. Then again I had to summarize those. So I had to work in haste. d. Confidential matter: It is not possible to get all sorts of information due to official confidentiality. e. Lack of practical knowledge: For the lack of practical knowledge, some short comings may be available in the report. Because in some cases I could not practically involved because of banks policy limitations and operational bindings. The problems mentioned above are some of the major problems; I have faced during the preparation of this report. In spite of that, I have tried my level best to make the report as informative as possible.

CHAPTER 2 ABOUT
THE
FIRST SECURITY ISLAMI BANK LIMITED
2.1 Definition of Bank:

We can define A bank as an institution, usually incorporated with power to issue its promissory notes intended to circulate as money (known as bank notes); or to receive the money of others on general deposit, to form a joint fund that shall be used by the institution, for its own benefit, for one or more of the purposes of making temporary loans and discounts; of dealing in notes, foreign and domestic bills of exchange, coin, bullion, credits, and the remission of money; or with both these powers, and with the privileges, in addition to these basic powers, of receiving special deposits and making collections for the holders of negotiable paper, if the institution sees fit to engage in such business." Generally there are two main way of operating commercial bank. They are conventional banking and Islamic banking system.
2.2 Islamic Banking:

The Islamic banking has been defined in a number of ways. The definition that is given approved by Organization of Islamic Conference is most popular. According to The OIC, The Islamic bank is a financial institution whose status, rules, and procedures expressly state its commitment to the principle of Islamic Shariah and to the banning of receipt and payment of interest on any of its operations. It appears from the definition that Islamic banking is a system of financial intermediation that avoids receipt and payment of interest in
SME Financing of FSIBL its transactions and conducts its operation in a way that it helps achieve the objectives of an Islamic economy. And also it is operated on the basis of Mudaraba theory. According to Mudaraba theory, the relationship between bank and clients is not debtors-creditors, it is a relationship of trusteeship. The difference between Conventional and Islamic Banking are shown
in terms of a box diagram as shown below:
Conventional Banks 1 The functions and operating modes of conventional banks are based on manmade principles. The investor is assured of a predetermined rate of interest. It aims at maximizing profit without any restriction. It does not deal with Zakat. 1
Islamic Banks The functions and operating modes of Islamic banks are based on the principles of Islamic Shariah. In contrast, it promotes risk sharing between provider of capital and the user of funds. It also aims at maximizing profit but subject to Shariah restrictions. In the modern Islamic banking systems, it has become one of the serviceoriented functions of the Islamic banks to collect an distribute Zakat. Participation in partnership business is the fundamental function of the Islamic banks. The Islamic banks have no provision to charge any extra money from the defaulters. For the Islamic banks, it is comparatively difficult to borrow money from the

Leading money and getting it back with interest is the fundamental function of the conventional banks. It can charge additional money in case of defaulters. For interest-based commercial banks, borrowing from the money market is relatively
SME Financing of FSIBL easier. The conventional banks give greater emphasis on creditworthiness of the clients. A conventional bank has to guarantee its deposits. The status of a conventional bank, in relation to its clients, is that of creditor and debtors. The conventional Banking system has the recycling system. They charge interest on interest. money market. The Islamic banks, on the other hand, give greater emphasis on the viability of the projects. Strictly speaking and Islamic bank cannot do it. The status of Islamic bank in relation to its clients is that of partners, investors and trader. In Islami Banking system, there is no recycling of interest. There is markup/rebate system.

6.6 Findings of First Security Islamic Bank Limited:

While working at Jubliee Road Branch, Chittagong, I have attained a newer kind of experience. After collecting and analysis data I have got some problem of the FSIBL. These problems completely from my personal viewpoint, which is given below: Lack of update products is a drawback of the general banking area of the FSIBL . New products such as student loan, medical loan, marriage loan are not available in FSIBL. From the clients view introducer is one of the problems to open an account. It is general problem to all commercial bank.
55
SME Financing of FSIBL They face troubles with those clients who have not any knowledge in banking transactions and banking rules.
As the deposit is heart of running the banking activities FSIBL Deposit growth not good. Because FSIBL deposit rate is low other than commercial bank such as Dhaka Bank, Prime bank Mercantile Bank, HSBC Bank, Bank Asia etc. FSIBL has not recruited competent people to filling its lower and mid level position they recruit only once a year. This is really tough to recruit high skilled employees. Lack of proper training arrangement of employees. As a result of technological change such as use of new software There are few staffs who have lacking in computer knowledge are not efficient enough to finish every task immediately so before utilizing new technology proper training should be arrange. Clients generally complain that rate of interest for various type of credit is quite high. investment is repaying loan. one problem is that bank always follows the policy of risk averse in the world today all the organization are moving in approach of risk taking. As a result it is facing some problems and also facing competition from other bank The recovery of capital in small business loan section is threatened. FSIBL has insufficiencies of Authorized Dealer Branch in respect of the total foreign business. Bank has only six branches, which have AD licenses. As a result in total foreign exchange business is very small in respect of total market. Per-shipment inspection certificate should obtain from the exporter of back to back L/C. Because it reduce it fraud and forgery in case of In many cases productivity from loaned inadequate that borrower become incapable in
56
SME Financing of FSIBL import against master export L/C, but all the time this pre-
shipment inspection certificate are not wanted by the bank FSIBL does not promote itself for catering its services to the public or the business organization.
CHAPTER 7 RECOMMENDATION
AND
CONCLUSION
OF
FSIBL
7.1 Recommendations
The existing credit policy is good enough to run the bank. But as the competition is increasing day by day the bank should take some measures so that they can distinguish it from the others. The credit management of First Security Islami Bank Ltd. can follow the following suggestion to improve their performance and distinguish from others: 1. Giving authority to the Branch officials to take decisions to sanction a loan. Right now, for every loan decision is made by Head office.

FSBL is providing opportunity of gaining practical knowledge for the students like internship program. During the period of my internship program I tried my best to understand the concern. However it is also concern that this period of time was not enough to understand everything of the concern. If any one wants to work in banking sector he must have to know about all the department in a bank because one department works related with another department works. I wanted to know about the credit section of the bank because banks main earnings depend with that section. But I cant because of the limited period. Even though I tried my best level to make the informative, this report contain many errors, there may be some printing mistakes no doubt for this reason I apologize.
