PREFACE
I know that internship is an essential part of MBA program because through this training,
students come to know the real difference between theory and practical work and they also
introduced to the outside business world. An important requirement of this training
program is to compile a report about the activities of that organization in which student has
done the internship.
I have done my internship in DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK, PECO ROAD BRANCH,
TOWNSHIP, LHR. The internship provided me great opportunity to equip myself with
knowledge, techniques, application and tools used in an organization.
I have tried to choose suitable words to lighter the subject of this report. Because words
are the symbols used to express ideas. There are the tools of affective writing. There
importance lies in the power, when they have suitably chosen and arranged to convey and
through to other in language, that is the understandable clearly and understood readily.
An important requirement of this report is that it should be comprehensive and written in
good style, I have tried my best to make the style of this report as good, as possible,
because style in writing as in other walks of life, is a quietly peculiar to the individual, as
not to people write alike. Background, training, experience and the way a person thinks
determine it.
I hope this report will help in understanding various aspects and features of Dubai Islamic
Bank.
BANKING IN PAKISTAN
The banking structure in Pakistan comprises of the following types, State Bank of
Pakistan, Commercial Bank of Pakistan; Exchange Banks, Saving banks, Cooperative
banks, specialized credit institutions. The state bank of Pakistan is the Central bank of the
country and was established on July 01, 1948. The network of bank branches now covers a
very large segment of national economy. The State Bank of Pakistan issues the shares of
these periodically. Bank employees and other common peoples can also purchase these
shares and earn profit.
WHAT IS BANK?
There are many definitions of the word “bank” even the standard encyclopedia and law
books find it difficult to state exactly what a bank is.
There have been many attempts by different writers to explain the exact significance of the
term “bank”. Here some of the definitions are quoted as follows.
According to banking companies’ ordinance 1962 section 5(b) defines:
“Banker means a person transacting the business of accepting for the purpose of lending or
investment, of deposits from the public, and withdrawal by cheques, drafts, order of
otherwise, and includes any post office saving bank”.
According to Samulelson:
“Commercial banks provide certain services for customers and in return receive payments
from them.”
According to Holder,
“The modern banker is primarily a dealer in credit.”
According to Crowther,
“Bank is a dealer of debt, his own and of other people.”
According to Gilbert,
“A bank is a dealer in capital or dealer in money. He is an intermediary party between the
borrowers and lenders.”
So the comprehensive definition of the bank is:
A bank is a financial institution, which deals with money and credit. It accepts deposits
from individuals, firm and companies at a lower rate of interest and gives at a higher rate
of interest to those who need them. The difference between the terms, at which it borrows
and those, at which it lends, form the source of its profit. A bank, thus, is a profit earning
institution.
History of Banking in Pakistan
The Indian society was quite familiar with the banking, right for the beginning. There is
also sufficient evidence to show that during 5th century people were accustomed to use
hondies as a credit investment. Loans were given to the people against personal and other
securities such as ornaments, goods and other immovable properties.
COMMERRCIAL BANKING IN PAKISTAN
FIRST PHASE (1947-1974)
SECOND PHASE (1974-79)
THIRD PHASE (1979-91)
FOURTH PHASE (1991-2000)
FIRST PHASE (1947-1974)
“Establishment Of Commercial Banking System”
There were 19 non-Indian foreign banks in Pakistan at the time of independence with the
status of small branch network, whose policies and operations were controlled by their
head offices abroad. These banks were solely engaged in export of crops from Pakistan.
There were only two banks in Pakistan at the time of partition, Habib bank, which had
transferred its head office from Bombay to Karachi after the announcement of the
partition, and Australian bank, which have been working in Pakistani territories prior to
June 1947.The Govt of Pakistan tried hard to eliminate the banking crises.
The imperial bank of India closed down most of its offices in Pakistan, which had been
working as the agent of Reserve bank of India was not willing to purchase even token
amount of the government of Pakistan. Securities on the plea that these securities were not
marketable. The reserve bank of India was hardly to any help. It refused to help the Govt
of Pakistan with advance argument adhoc securities to enable them to make essential
disbursements such as salaries and other obligations to add to the difficulties.
The Indian Govt withheld Pakistan’s share of 750 million in cash balances held by her at
the time of independence. The forgoing developments clearly brought home the urgency of
assuming the control and currency in Pakistan and brought to the force the need to setup a
central banking institution to take the place of reserve bank of India. Therefore it was
agreed between the Govt of India and Pakistan to authority of Pakistan from 30th
September 1947 to 30th June 1948.
In order to make necessary arrangements of the establishment of the central bank of
Pakistan a committee was appointed to recommend the necessary steps. Consequently the
Governor General of Pakistan and father of the nation Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali
Jinnah inaugurated the State bank of Pakistan of 1st July 1948.After the SBP order was
promulgated on 12th May 1948.
When it assumed full control of banking and currency in Pakistan the first important task
before the SBP was to issue of currency notes and withdrawal of reserve bank of India,
which had been in circulation in Pakistan so far.
SECOND PHASE (1974-79)
NATIONALIZATION OF BANKS:
The banking reforms turned out to be a transitional and temporary step and hardly after 18
months, the government nationalized the banking system. Thus through the nationalization
bank act 1974, SBP and all commercial banks incorporated in Pakistan and carrying on
business in or outside the country were brought under the government ownership with
effect from January 1974.Thje ownership and management of all Pakistan banks stood
transferred and rested in the federal government .The shareholders were provided
compensation in the form of federal government bonds redeemable at par any time with in
a period of fifteen years. The amount of compensation was equal to the breakup value of
the shares in case of commercial banks. For the SBP shares the amount of compensation
was estimated on the basis of average of the clearing quotations during the 6 working days
preceding
Nationalization .
The chairman, director and chief executive of various banks were removed from their
offices other than those appointed by the federal government and the state bank. the central
board of banks, managing committees and similar other bodies were dissolved. A Pakistani
banking counsel was established for nationalized commercial banks to co-ordinate their
activities.
Merger of Banks
As a result of merger of banks the following 5 major banking companies were formed:
National bank of Pakistan
Habib bank limited
United bank limited
Muslim commercial bank limited
Allied bank of Pakistan
CAUSES OF NATIONALIZATION:
The nationalization of banks may be justified on the following grounds;
Large business and industrial houses dominate the
Lending policies of the commercial banks; this brought forward the problem of
concentration of wealth.
Commercial banking operations were guided by profits motives and as a result the
backward regions and the small entrepreneurs were never been their favorite customers.
The operation of banks, unlike after business, have direct implication on the entire national
economy .For instance if the banks raise the cost of their credit, the cost of every thing go
up.
Unhealthy complications among banks can lead to financial and economic problems.
The flow of bank advances towards national priority sector in general is not forthcoming
because private banks are profit oriented.
RULES OF NATIONALIZATION:
Although there are doubts about the positive results of the nationalization but we
can say that the nationalization of banks provided efficient professional management to
expand banking services in every nook and corner of the country. Banks laid full emphasis
on their lending policies on priority sector and national building projects, which
discouraged non-productive and unhealthy activities like speculation and hoarding, there
was also a recorded increase in the number of foreign branches of Pakistani banks.
The growth of Pakistani banking system was significant. The banking facilities expanded
in the rural areas. The bank credit increased sharply especially in the public sector. A part
from this expansion the banking system’s activity seeking to gain credit targets laid down
by national credit consultative counsel (NCCC) and to conform to the priorities over the
year to enlarge the flow of credit for the small banker and agriculturist as well as for
exports. Bank deposits rose very substantially during a period when total monetary assets
also registered a sharp rise. In a remarkable short time banks and their management had
adjusted to the realities and compulsion of the new situation and the system as a whole was
completely geared to government objectives and policies.
THIRD PHASE (1979-91)
INTRODUCTION OF ISLAMIC BANKING:
In 1977 the Bhutto government was toppled. The martial law government planned to
reform the banking sector in a novel way. The overall policy was to Islamize the economy
and the banking system, being based on interest was an important target of the new policy.
The most preferred form of Islamic bank financing profit and loss sharing would receive
banks to receive deposit without guaranteeing and return.
The Islamic bank has to acquire a high degree of confidence of the saver to make him
deposit his money with them. Not even the return of the principal amount if guaranteed.
The Islamic bank cannot finance the project of an investor merely on the furnishing of
collateral. The bank will have to be a partner in the
project. This will require to careful security of the project and the assessment of risk
involved because profit are the functions of the amount of risk on the project. Honesty and
trust from both sides of the market are more important to the system of Islamic banking.
FOURTH PHASE (1991-2000)
PRIVATIZATION AND DE-REGULATION:
The government headed by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was not fully satisfied with the
performance of nationalization. The areas, which were severely criticized, were the falling
standard of banking services and common red-tapism.there were complaints about the
services as delay in home remittances, dispatch of cheques, drafts, inefficient counter
services. They were on sector applications for privatization of other banks namely UBL
and HBL were also invited but the binding response was quite poor. The privatization of
these banks is under consideration. Legislation was in acted to permit the establishment of
new banks and the government approved 10 applications from the private sector for the
grant of commercial bank licenses by SBP, out of these new 9 banks have since been
incorporated.
Till March 1994 there were 20 domestic schedule banks with 9825 branches and 21
foreign banks with 66 branches in operation in the country. Over all investment of the
schedule banks in the current year rose to 76.7% .At present there are 24 domestic
scheduled with 8137 branches and 19 foreign banks with 71 branches are in operation in
the country. Total assets of domestic scheduled banks amounting to Rs.1563.73 billion on
30th march 1996.Overall investment of the domestic scheduled banks in the current year
declined by 80% over the same period last year.

Introduction To Islamic Banking
Defination
Islamic banking refers to a system of banking or banking activity which is consistent
with Islamic law (Sharia) principles and guided by Islamic economics. In particular,
Islamic law prohibits the collection of interest, also commonly called riba in Islamic
discourse. One form of the argument against interest is that money is not a good and profit
should be earned on goods and services only; not on control of money itself.
Prohibition of Riba in Qur’an
Al Baqarah 275
“Those who devour Riba shall rise up before Allah like men whom Shaitan has demented
by his touch; for they claim that trading is like usury. But Allah has permitted trading and
forbidden usury. He that receives an admonition from his Rabb and mends his ways may
keep what he has already earned; his faith is in the hand of Allah. But he that pays no heed
shall be among the people of fire and shall remain in it forever.”
Main Purpose of Islamic Banking
ISLAMIC BANKING WANTS TO REDUCE THIS DIFFERENCE
History of Islamic Banking in Pakistan
1947
The inception of Pakistan as the first Islamic Republic created in the name of Islam.
While the world is now recognizing the significance of Islamic finance industry, in
Pakistan, as early as in 1948, Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah emphasized the virtues of Islamic
principles and in his address at the inauguration of the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), said:
. “I shall watch with keenness the work of your Organization in evolving banking
practices compatible with Islamic ideas of social and economic life. We must work
Our destiny in our own way and present to the world an economic system based on true
Islamic concept of equality of manhood and social justice1.”
1980
CII presents report on the elimination of Interest genuinely considered to be the first
major comprehensive work in the world undertaken on Islamic banking and finance.
1985
Commercial banks transformed their nomenclature stating all Rupee saving accounts as
interest-free. However, foreign currency deposits in Pakistan and foreign loans continued
as before.
Procedure adopted by banks in 1985 was declared unIslamic by the Federal Shariat Court
(FSC). The Government and some banks/DFIs made appeals to the Shariat Appellate
Bench (SAB) of the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
1997
The Shariat Appellate Bench of the Supreme Court of Pakistan rejects the appeals
and directs all laws on interest banking to cease. The government sets up a high level
commission, task forces and committees to institute and promote Islamic banking.

Why Islamic Banking?
In the light of Allah’s commands, it is obligatory on us to try to find and adopt the right
banking system, one that follows the principles set by the Creator. Those who learn to
differentiate between what has been allowed and what has been forbidden will be the
ones with a clear conscience when they assemble in front of the Creator on the Day of
Judgment.
Allah has clearly ordained the prohibition of Riba in the Glorious Quran. Verses [2:278-
279] translate into:
278. O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and give up what remains of your demand for usury,
if ye are Indeed believers.
279. If ye do not, take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger: but if ye repent, ye
shall have your capital sums; Neither will you deal with others unjustly, nor shall you be
dealt with unjustly.
Beware! false interpretations of these verses has led many individuals to assume that the
prohibition only relates to situations where the creditor is likely to charge exploitatively
high rates of interest. It is wrong to see the above translation as proof that the (sole)
objective served by the prohibition of Riba is the avoidance of injustice (in the sense of
exploitation of the poor debtor by the rich creditor). In Islam, there is no room for Riba,
marginal or otherwise.
Riba gives birth to an economic system that is unjust; one that favors the rich at the
expense of the poor. Rather than reward for effort and entrepreneurship with profit, the
Riba based economic system rewards capitalists.
Islamic Finance attempts to create a fair economic system. It works on the principle of
profit and loss sharing. Riba (Interest) is strictly prohibited in all its forms and kinds.
Islamic banks enter into trade and investment to earn Halal profit as they neither take
deposits/funds on interest nor do they advance loans on interest. They have to purchase
and sell assets in order to make profit from the higher sale prices or enter into investment
arena. The most common sale contracts used by Islamic banks are Murabaha, Salam,
Istisna, sale on deferred payment basis while Ijara is the sale of the usufruct of an asset
owned by the bank. For investment, the Islamic banks have Mudaraba, Musharaka and
Wakala structures.
Islamic banks have to strictly comply with the principles and rules of Shari’a which
prohibit outright any transaction involving alcohol, pork, gambling, etc. Further, the
Islamic modes of finance and investment used by these banks must fulfill the basic
conditions of these contracts to be considered Shari’a compliant.
An Example
In an Islamic mortgage transaction, instead of lending money to the buyer, an
Islamicbank buys the item from the seller, and sells it to the buyer at a profit with the sale
price deferred and paid to the bank by the buyer/customer in installments. This mode of
financing is called Murabaha. It is a Shari’a requirement that the bank must purchase the
asset and get the title/ownership, and hence the associated risks and potential benefits
before selling it to the customer. In conventional financing, the bank does not assume
ownership or the associated risk. In such a system, capital alone is used to produce more
capital.
Remember
At DIBPL we have a full fledged Sharia Department that monitors every transaction the
bank is involved in. All products, marketing material and campaigns are also certified by
this department ensuring that nothing is in conflict with the guidelines of Sharia.
Moreover Sharia Audit is conducted to ensure that none of the bank’s income is from
transactions that were Sharia repugnant. If such a case is found, the income from the
infringing transaction is removed from the bank’s profit and donated to charity!

DIBPL closes 2007 at PKR 16.1 billion deposits
DIBPL closed 2007 with year end deposits of 16.1 billion. These have taken only 1.9
years of operation and account for an unprecedented growth of 273% in a very
competitive market in 2007.
Dubai Islamic Bank Pakistan Limited’s total assets reach Rs 21bn – a growth of 152% in
2007
Karachi, January 23 2008: DIBPL is one of the fastest growing banks in Pakistan,
recording an incremental growth of 152 percent in its total asset base which stands at
PKR 21 billion as of Dec 2007.
Elaborating on the Bank’s achievements at a press conference, M A Mannan, DIBPL
shared that in a short span of two years since the Bank commenced operations in
Pakistan, DIBPL’s customer base has grown by 228% to approximately 21,000
customers in 2007, up from 6,400 in the year 2006. For the same period, the Bank’s
deposit base has grown by 273% to Rs 16.1 billion in 2007. The share capital of DIBPL
stands at Rs 5 billion.
According to Mannan, “During the Year 2007 DIBPL has remained actively abreast of
the industry by offering a number of world class products and services in corporate and
consumer banking. Of the products introduced last year, DIB Auto Finance, registered a
volume of Rs. 2.9 billion within 9 months of its launch. In a market where cut throat
competition persists, this reflects a great success for the Bank.” On the corporate side,
DIBPL is at the forefront of product innovation and development. During the year 2006–
07, the Bank arranged Sukuks worth PKR 24 billion, which is 41% of the total domestic
Sukuk issuances. DIBPL has played the role of lead arranger for most of the issuances it
has been associated with. DIBPL also successfully launched SME business which has a
portfolio of Rs. 1.5 billion plus.
DIBPL commenced operations in Pakistan in March 2006. DIBPL has seventeen
branches in nine major cities – Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Faisalabad,

headquartered in UAE. The Group has maintained its status quo as the undisputed market
leader in Islamic
Financing since its inception in 1975. Dubai Islamic Bank also has the honorable
distinction of being the first Islamic bank in the world.
Similarly, the unique Home Finance facility, offered by DIBPL garnered an equally
overwhelming response. Within the first three months, DIB Home Finance was the
industry leader in the entire banking industry by far achieving a milestone of the fastest
billion mark. DIB Home Finance maintained its market leadership throughout the year
2007 and in only 12 months time DIB Home Finance registered a volume of Rs. 2.6
billion, which is the fastest growth rate in the entire industry. Mannan attributed the
overwhelming market response to distinctively unique product design and features.
The success of the Bank is not limited to the mortgage front but also resonates in other
services offered by DIBPL. Aside from providing regular banking services, DIBPL has
been very active in attracting foreign direct investment in and from Pakistan.
Sharing DIBPL’s vision for 2008, Mannan said, “We see the year 2008 as bright years
which will Insha’Allah take us to the next level of success in terms of growth. Our major
ambition is to take continue our growth trajectory and take Islamic products more

Lack of modern advertisement techniques.
Give no job satisfaction so many employees resigned.
High turnover of staff due to fewer benefits to the employees.
Excessive load of work on employees
Late sitting.
OPPORTUNITIES
DIB can use effective marketing technology to make people aware of its product.
DIB can introduce new products to satisfy their new customers.
Islamic banking share is only 4% in the banking sector. It should try to capture more of
the share as more of Pakistani nation has Islamic mind set.
THREATS
Unstable political and economic condition of the country.
More banks open their Islamic Branches in the country so great competition is there for
DIB.
Recommendations
During my internship period with DIB I have learned a lot about banking system,
observed deeply the functioning of the branch. In the light of these observances, I have
following suggestions for the DIB. These recommendations base on many observations:
RIBA FREE COMMERCIAL BANKING to be set up in all countries of the world,
Muslims and non-Muslims. This will greatly facilitate international export import trade
without the fear of being involved in any Riba dealing.
The bank should do proper and effective advertisement, and enhance its public image,
goodwill and attract more customers towards Islamic banking by doing efficient
advertisement.
Increase consumer banking and offer more and more products in it.
DIB does not provide jobs security to the employees. Most are hired on contractual bases
on the start. More people must be employed on permanent bases, providing job security
and satisfaction.
A research cell should continuously try to gather information about the present action of
its competitors and their expected future actions. So in this way more effective strategies
can be formulated.
The performance reward linkages should be made strong as it said, “A happy employee
deliver more than he receive from organization”. The DIB should also try to make its
employee’s happier.
CONCLUSION
This internship program gave me an exposure of the real banking environment and its
interaction with commercial sector. The valuable learning experience shows all internal
and external of not only about the role of banking but also almost all other sectors of
business or private enterprises
The essence of the business philosophy of DIB is to cater to the banking requirements of
the entire individual, SME, commercial and corporate, providing them qualitative &
competitive services and Sharia compliant products.
“In banking the Golden rule is generating profit through customer satisfaction by
providing competitive
Services & maintaining
Balance between liquidity & profitability.”
RATIO ANALYSIS
1. Income Ratio:
Average Rate of lending = __Profit/Return earned_ x 100
Financing + Investments
2007 2008
Profit / Return earned 152007 515636
Financing + Investments 14322066 17399148
Average rate of lending 1.06% 2.96%
Interpretation:
This ratio shows the profitability of the bank i.e., how much bank is earning on
the money lent out and invested. There is a increase in this ratio from 2007 to 2008.This
is mainly because of the increase in the profit/ return rate in the year 2008. The bank has
also increased its financing and investment but according to the figures they have
extended that money on higher rates.
In 2008 bank increased its financing and investments in profitable securities but
take cautious measure in extending finance so there is a huge increase in financing and
investments and there is a much increase in profit/mark up which means that they give
more finance to the good customers even on low rates.

Average rate of borrowing 0.36% 1.13%
Interpretation:
This ratio shows the cost of money the bank pays to its depositors and to other
financial institutions. This ratio is steadily increasing from 2007 to 2008. It is because the
deposit has increased from 2007 to 2008 as the branch network has increased during that
period so the return associated to that money has also increased. Another reason of this
increase in return is, as discussed earlier, most of the bank deposits are term deposits and
saving accounts.

relation to the total deposits. There is a increase in this ratio from 2007 to 2008. As the
bank has increasing its branch network from 2007 to 2008 so consequently there
administrative expense has increased but also they have succeeded to get a huge amount
of deposits from the public so there is not much changes in the ratio from 2007-2008.

bank. Bank loss is decreasing from 0.56% to 0.46%.
