“An Overview of product & Service” of Bangladesh Commerce Bank Limited”

1.1 Historical Background of BCBL

Bangladesh Commerce Bank Ltd incorporated in Bangladesh on 1 June 1998 as a banking company, it started banking operations on 16 September 1999 with an authorized and paid up capital of Tk 2,000 million and Tk 920 million respectively. The share of the government of Bangladesh in the bank's paid up capital is Tk 300 million while depositors of the former Bangladesh Commerce and Investment Limited (BCIL) contributed Tk 520 million. The balance of Tk 100 million is to be subscribed by banks and financial institutions under guidance and supervision by Bangladesh bank.The former BCIL was set up on 27 January 1986 as a non-bank financial institution. It continued its business till April 1992. Consequent upon its liquidity crisis, Bangladesh Bank suspended its operations in April 1992. As a result, the investors of the company suffered a lot and its employees became jobless. Both the depositors and the jobless employees launched a movement for reopening the company in some form or other and demanded return of their money and dues. With a view to safeguarding the interest of the depositors, employees and the general public, and to protecting the banking system itself from contagious effects of bank failures, the government of Bangladesh established the Bangladesh Commerce Bank on the ashes of the collapsed BCIL. Subsequently, the government on 8 February 1998 constituted a 10-member board of directors to organize and transform BCIL into BCBL and to administer the affairs of the bank. The 24 branches of BCIL were reopened as full-fledged branches of BCBL. The broad objective of the bank is to carry out all kinds of commercial banking activities and to respond quickly to the changing demands for modern banking products.In its three months of operations in 1999 starting on 16 September and ending on 31 December, BCBL had mobilized deposits of Tk 83 million. To augment its deposit collection further, BCBL introduced a number of deposit schemes suited to the needs of all classes of people in society. These schemes include a) Monthly Profit Based Deposit Scheme, b) Pension Saving Scheme, c) Interest Free Deposit and Loan Scheme, d) Consumers' Credit Scheme, and e) Money Plantation Against Saving Certificates. It has also offered competitive rates of interest on its deposit holdings, which varied between 7.75% and 12% since the inception of its operations through May 2000. Total deposits stood at Tk 1,294.2 million on 31 December 2000, when its gross loans and advances amounted to Tk 1,311 million. The first priority of the bank in 1999 and 2000 was the recovery of the past loans of the BCIL. It has managed to recover Tk 523.3 million in cash and Tk 1,788 million by adjustment against past liabilities. The bank is overburdened with the liabilities and the

non-performing classified loans of BCIL. The bank also suffered losses in the years 1999 and 2000 and was not able to maintain necessary provisions for classified loans. Investment of the bank has increased from Tk 20 million in 1999 to Tk 95 million in 2000, mainly in government Treasury bills. Because of the huge stuck up loans inherited from the BCIL, the bank's credit-deposit ratio stood at 101.30%.

Total assets of BCBL, including the Tk 1,423.99 million of former BCIL stood at Tk 3,763.7 million on 31 December 2000. The bank's off-balance-sheet reserve was only Tk 95.8 million, a figure which has contributed little to the increase of its asset-mix. In 2000, BCBL maintained liquid assets of Tk 1,052.6, a sum hardly sufficient to meet its accumulated short-term/current obligations. On the other hand, statutory liquid assets of the bank were 15.08% in 2000, which is below the 20% SLR requirement envisaged by Bangladesh Bank. Because BCBL had absorbed huge amount of liabilities and non-performing assets of BCIL, it was not possible for the bank to make net profits during the short period of its existence in the new set-up. The bank is managed by a 9-member board of directors appointed by the government. A total of 590 officers and other staff work in the head office and the 24 branches of the bank. It has inherited a training institute from BCIL. This institute is being reorganized to provide training to its employees in modern banking services.

It is a very popular scheme whereby a client is given the opportunity to have an exclusive right to use an asset, usually for an agreed period of time, against payment of rent. Of late, the lease finance has become very popular in almost all the countries of the world. An obvious advantage of the lease is to use an asset without having to buy it. The lessee is obligated to make lease payments until the expiration of the lease agreement, which corresponds to the useful life of the asset. In a capital scarce economy like ours, Lease Financing is suitable for firms to acquire Capital Machinery, Equipments, Medical Instruments, and Automobiles etc. And thereby employ their own resources more advantageously in some other investments. Lease financing also helps a firm to reap significant economic benefit through tax saving and by reducing the risk of the equipments becoming obsolete due to the technological advancement.

Time is very valuable to them. Despite this, they are to waste their valuable time at the counter of different Banks and other Institutions for payment of their monthly bills of different utility services like Electricity, Telephone, Water, Gas etc. They, as such, face enormous difficulties for payment of their monthly bills in time. Such inconveniences of the urban people can be removed by making an arrangement to collect all the bills of various utility services at One Point.

Scope of ServicesWith this end in view, Prime Bank Limited has introduced a Scheme entitled “ONE STOP UTILITY SERVICES SCHEME”. The scheme is designed to provide all the required services to the customer in making payment of their following bills on their behalf from the counter of the Bank:

Comparative Scenario with Competitive Bank

5.1 Interest RateA comparative picture drawn on interest rate on various deposit & loan product-

Figure 8: Interest Rate for SB A/C

Figure 9: Interest Rate for FDR A/C (1)

Figure 10: Interest Rate for FDR A/C (2)

Figure 11: Interest on various Credits

From the above Graph it has been observed that Banks are offering a very close rate regarding Deposit & Loans.

5.2 Product & ServicesIn case of Deposit product/scheme BCBL are not diversifying their product/special scheme to the client who are belong to various social ground/culture/group etc. The competitive banks innovating product to attract the new customers as well as to satisfy existing client. And there a huge opportunity for BCBL to launch new featured product to attract more customer.

In our country most of the Bank providing Consumer Credit, and the approximate recovery rate is more or less 98% from which a Bank can earn a huge return. But at present BCBL not operating in that section and need to take that point in a great consideration. Additionally on the ground of services area BCBL are on back footed comparing to other bank. BCBL providing only general services. But today customer needs are growing enormously. So BCBL needs to expand its service area like Credit Card and ATM Card and online banking operations for clients, Merchant Banking etc.

BCBL are on Back foot compare to other Bank on following factor-

1. Retail banking2. Introduce special corporate scheme3. ATM4. Credit card and debit card system5. Online Banking6. Merchant banking

5.3 Opportunity should pick up by BCBL

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 operating into the market in the recent time. In this competitive environment BCBL 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 order to reduce the business risk, BCBL 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.

In addition of those things, BCBL 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.

Future Prospect, Recommendation

andConclusion

6.1 Future ProspectAmid many challenges, adverse economic conditions and market scenario during the year, the Bank maintained its growth trend through the indicators like, profitability, deposit mobilization, asset creation and profitability, deposit mobilization, asset creation and network expansion. Basing on convincing reasons, we strongly believe that in the coming years also, the Bank strongly believes that in the coming years also, the Bank would be able to attain its earning capacity at an accelerated growth rate.

Bank is also marking a headway for introduction of Credit Card and ATM Card and online banking operations for clients, bank intends to enter into agreement with reputed Exchange Companies in USA, UK and UAE for safe and steady flow of foreign remittances into the country from Bangladesh expatriated working at those places.

We can safely say that we have well positioned ourselves in the banking arena of Bangladesh with diversified products and financial services to seize the opportunities. New custom-friendly products are being evolved in the days to come.

6.2 RecommendationThe banks are actually service organizations. The main objectives of the world famous and successful banking organizations are to making of profit through addressing the clients time to time with new pieces of service instruments. However my little experience earned through this internship program took me to customers varying demands. As soon as possible the bank should launch more branches in Dhaka city as well as in other cities in Bangladesh.

Now a day the world is going vary fast. Now most of the bank provides online services. So that BCBL can take more initiative about that.One of the business strategies is promotion. Successful business depend how they can promote their products or services to the customer. In this connection to improve the business status bank should introduce more promotional programs.In the total banking system it is necessary to implement modern banking process instead of traditional system. It should be more computerized.All the foreign banks and other private commercial bank have Customer relation/support/service officer in all branches. They sit in front of branches they solve customers problem, answer inquiry of customers etc. BCBL should appoint customer service officer in all branches.BCBL should improve its service quality; otherwise it will fall back of other private commercial bank.Use of effective management information systems.To deliver quality service top management should try to mitigate the gap between customer’s expectation and employee’s perception.Use appropriate techniques in evaluating customer need and convenience professionally

BCBL needs more effective discipline for all branches.It has some inefficient employee, so that management can look after that.

6.3 ConclusionBCBL is one of the problem banks in Bangladesh. And they are doing well gradually. But it has some draw back. We strongly believe that the banking services marketing are different from goods marketing in a significant way. So that, it can improves totally different strategy and tactics. And you can do marketing when you have signified product & Service.

To analyze the BCBL regarding to service & product we found that, to win the customer satisfaction BCBL need to improve their service quality, enhance technological service and launch new product which will generate inflow to the Bank.
