Saudi Pak industrial and agriculture investment company (Pvt) Ltd (SAPICO). Silk Bank
(formerly Saudi Pak Commercial Bank) came into existence when a consortium of
investors, comprising Bank Muscat SAOG, Nomura European Investments Limited and
International Finance Corporation signed a share purchase agreement with the Saudi Pak
investment group. On March 31, 2008 the consortium acquired 86.55% of the bank for
around USD 26million or $0.47 per share (Rs 29.3 equivalent per share). Under the new
leadership, the bank will continue to focus on SME and consumer financing resulting in
efforts of increased profitability. In December 2009, after completing all regulatory
requirements, the bank announced a Rights Issue of 311% at a discount of Rs 7.5 per

Organizational Structure of Silkbank G - 9 Branch
I did internship in (Silk bank), G-9 Branch, Islamabad. This branch was founded in July
1962. From last many years this branch is not only achieving its targets of deposits and
advances rather it remains above the targets. According to the financial record of last year
this branch was earning more than 20% of total profit of the region.
Every year the targets of this branch are increasing by 20 to 25 percent but still there is a
potential in the market to meet these additional targets. This branch is performing its
functions in traditional style and now it has been converted into an online branch.
First two weeks I worked in operation department, for next two weeks I worked in credit
department and for rest of the time I worked with Business Manager where I learned lot
of things including how to deal with corporate customers, with individual customer and
how loans can be recovered from the customers.
During the internship session I got the chance to perform on different activities, which
are listed below, and short explanation is also given.
Account Opening Department
To open an account the customer have to meet the general banking manager with an
introducer (the person who is going to introduce that person in the bank) and get an
application form used for account opening. Different color-coded application forms are
available for each type of account. Along with the form a card for specimen signature is
also supplied to customer. Manager has every right not to accept this contract if he is not
satisfied by the details provided by the customer. In case the contract is acceptable to
both, now it is ready to open the account formally.
Account Types
Though in theory they’re many types of accounts but commonly account operators can be
classified in one of the following categories, each have different documentation
requirements:
Single
Joint
Partnership
Private Limited
Credit Department
The earning of a commercial bank is chiefly derived from interest charges on loans and
discounts it. Now loans are recognized as advances or finances. The advances are made
through the deposits that are kept in the bank by the customers. The bank pays profit on
the deposited amount and receives mark up on the advances made of different amounts.
Silk bank introduced the mark up based advancing in Jan1, 1985 when the Islamization
of the economy was influence under this system of advancing the bank is entitled to
receive a constant sum of money on the amount that is outstanding on the account of the
party.
Foreign Exchange
To promote flow of foreign exchange in the country, the Government of Pakistan started
a new scheme of opening of bank accounts in foreign currency. These accounts were
entitled to receive profit percentage in shape of the currency in which the account was
kept (Dollar account shall be paid profit in dollars). This has increased the flow of foreign
currency especially from the Pakistani foreign residents, who used to send money to their
families at home. The State Bank of Pakistan was given special rights to control and
monitor the performance of the “Authorized Dealers” in foreign exchange accounts.
Authorized Dealer is a person or an institution, which can deal with the foreign
exchange. The authority is given by SBP to all those scheduled Banks who have adequate
trained staff and facilities. These scheduled banks are given license to deal in foreign
currency transactions.
Remittance Department
Remittance department provides services to the customer of the bank. The main function
of this department is transfer of funds.
Instruments of Bills and Remittance Department
The instruments that are handled in the Remittance department are as follow:
Demand Draft.
Mail transfer.
Telegraphic transfer.
Pay order.
Pay slip.
OBC (outward bill for collections).
IBC (inward bill for collections).
Clearing Department
There is no legal obligation on a banker to collect cheques drawn upon other banks for a
customer. However it is function of almost every modern bank of the collection of
cheques and bills on behalf of the customer.
Clearing department services are provided in order to make arrangements for the
economic collection of the cheques, DD and other negotiable instruments. A large part of
this work is carried on through the clearinghouse.
After joining the bank in internship I got the practical exposure of all the above-described
activities. The mechanism is not too simple to understand easily but still lots of
complexities have been solved.
Various Departments of Silkbank
Cash Department
Cash department performs the following functions
Receipt
The money, which either comes or goes out from the bank, its record should be kept.
Cash department performs this function. The deposits of all customers of the bank are
controlled by means of ledger accounts. Every customer has its own ledger account and
has separate ledger cards.
Payments
It is a banker’s primary contract to repay money received for this customer’s account
usually by honoring his cheques.
The Requisites of Cheque
There is no prescribed form of words or design of a Cheque, but in order to fulfill the
requirements mentioned in Section 6 above the Cheque must have the following.
a) It should be in writing
b) The unconditional order
c) Drawn on specific banker only
d) Payment on Demand
e) Sum Certain in money
f) Payable to a specific person
g) Signed by the drawer
Parties to Cheque
The normal Cheque is one in which there is a drawer, a drawee banker and a payee, or no
payee but bearer.
a) The Drawer
b) The Drawee
c) The Payee
Clearance Department
A clearinghouse is an association of commercial banks set up in given locality for the
purpose of interchange and settlement of credit claims. The function of clearinghouse is
performed by the central bank of a country by tradition or by law. In Pakistan, the
clearing system is operated by the SBP. If SBP has no office at a place, then Silk bank, as
a representative of SBP act as a clearinghouse.
After the World War II, a rapid growth in banking institutions has taken place. The use of
cheques in making payments has also widely increased. The collection as settlement of
mutual obligations in the form of cheques is now a big task for all the commercial bank.
When Cheque is drawn on one bank and the holder (payee) deposits the same in his
account at the bank of the drawer, the mutual obligation are settled by the internal bank
administration and there arises no inter bank debits from the use of cheques. The total
assets and total liabilities of the bank remain unchanged.
In practice , the person receiving a Cheque as rarely a depositor of the cheque at the same
bank as the drawer. He deposits the cheque with his bank other than of payer for the
collection of the amount. Now the bank in which the cheque has been deposited becomes
a creditor of the drawer’s bank. The depositor bank will pay his amount of the cheque by
transferring it from cash reserves if there are no offsetting transactions. The banks on
which the cheques are drawn become in debt to the bank in which the cheques are
deposited. At the same time, the creditors’ banks receive large amounts of cheques drawn
on other banks giving claims of payment by them.
The easy, safe and most efficient way is to offset the reciprocal claims against the other
and receive only the net amount owned by them. This facility of net inter bank payment
is provided by the clearinghouse.
The representatives of the local commercial banks meet at a fixed time on all the business
days of the week. The meeting is held in the office of the bank that officially performs the
duties of clearinghouse. The representatives of the commercial banks deliver the cheques
payable at other local banks and receive the cheques drawn on their bank. The cheques
are then sorted according to the bank on which they are drawn. A summary sheet is
prepared which shows the names of the banks, the total number of cheques delivered and
received by them. Totals are also made of all the cheques presented by or to each bank.
The difference between the total represents the amount to be paid by a particular bank
and the amount to be received by it. Each bank then receives the net amount due to it or
pays the net amount owed by it.
Advances Department
Advances department is one of the most sensitive and important departments of the bank.
The major portion of the profit is earned through this department. The job of this
department is to make proposals about the loans. The Credit Management Division of
Head Office directly controls all the advances. As we known bank is a profit seeking
institution. It attracts surplus balances from the customers at low rate of interest and
makes advances at a higher rate of interest to the individuals and business firms. Credit
extensions are the most important activity of all financial institutions, because it is the
main source of earning. However, at the same time, it is a very risky task and the risk
cannot be completely eliminated but could be minimized largely with certain techniques.
Principles of Advances
There are four principles, which must be duly observed while advancing money to the
borrowers.
Safety
Liquidity
Dispersal
Remuneration
Forms of Loans
In addition to purchase and discounting of bills, bankers in Pakistan generally lend in the
form of cash finance, overdrafts and loans. Silk bank provides advances to different
people in different ways as the case demand.
a) Cash Finance
This is a very common form of borrowing by commercial and industrial concerns and is
made available either against pledge or hypothecation of goods, produce or merchandise.
In cash finance a borrower is allowed to borrow money from the banker up to a certain
limit, either at once or as and when required. The borrower prefers this form of lending
due to the facility of paying markup/services charges only on the amount he actually
utilizes.
If the borrower does not utilize the full limit, the banker has to lose return on the un-
utilized amount. In order to offset this loss, the banker may provide for a suitable clause
in the cash finance agreement, according to which the borrower has to pay
markup/service charges on at least on self or one quarter of the amount of cash finance
limit allowed to him even when he does not utilize that amount.
b) Overdraft/Running Finance
This is the most common form of bank lending. When a borrower requires temporary
accommodation his banker allows withdrawals on his account in excess of the balance,
which the borrowing customer has in credit, and an overdraft thus occurs. This
accommodation is generally allowed against collateral securities. When it is against
collateral securities it is called “Secured Overdraft” and when the borrowing customer
cannot offer any collateral security except his personal security, the accommodation is
called a “Clean Overdraft”. The borrowing customer is in an advantageous position in an
overdraft, because he has to pay service charges only on the balance outstanding against
him. The main difference between a cash finance and overdraft lies in the fact that cash
finance is a bank finance used for long term by commercial and industrial concern on
regular basis, while an overdraft is a temporary accommodation occasionally resorted to.

Chapter 5:
Theoretical
And
Practical Concepts
Application of Learned Concepts
After getting entered into practical life this is a common complaint that practically things
are quite different from theoretical learning, but I did not face such big difference because
the concepts I got from the course of “Money and Banking” and “Business Institutions”
were so much close to the real world. In management and marketing style of the
employees there were somehow differences exist.
While doing internship I got lot of experience and I got the chance to apply my
knowledge practically, which helped me in getting interest in learning new concepts.
After doing this practice I feel that I can even compare my practical knowledge in further
studies.

Comments:
Total Assets have greatly increased in 2009 on terms of increase in cash, net investments,
advances and operating fixed assets. Liabilities have also increased due to a very great
increase in inter bank borrowings. Total equity decrease in 2007 then increase in 2008,
due to a great increase in reserves of Silk bank , but in 2009 a big decrease.
These analysis shows that Silk bank is going through a growth phase due to which it is
incurring great increases in various items of balance sheet.
Horizontal Analysis of Balance Sheet also shows that Silk bank is in good financial
health and is following proper strategies for expanding its business. Comparing the asset
composition in the two years the advances of the Silk bank have increased considerably,
and also the amount of the total assets has been increased. The increase in the advances
shows that customers have trust over the banks money and they are getting more and
more money from their bank and also the collection policy is fair and successful.

Comments:
Deposits hold a portion of 80 to 98 percent of the total liabilities and equity this shows
how much customer deposits Silk bank has. Total Equity holds only 6 to 7 percent of the
total liabilities and equity which shows that Silk bank mainly generates its funds from
deposits rather than equity financing.
Current and fixed assets show the normal vertical trend. The vertical analyses reveal that
significant portion of balance sheet comprises of fixed asset and current assets.
Bank liabilities analyses shows that banks liabilities are not increasing which is good sign
of the stability go the bank. In last five years bank borrowing are in same trend and bank
have no much amount of liabilities.
Banks most of the shares are the property of government so the increasing and decreasing
cant effect the bank position because bank have the back of government.

Comments:
From the vertical analysis, it is clear that Silk bank like any other banks earns its most
income from interest income earned on giving out consumer and business loans. They
hold almost 80 to 170 percentage of the gross income. Interest expenses also incur to a
great deal on account of giving out deposits to consumers and businesses.
The vertical analyses of the income shows that major portion of the income statement
consist markup because bank give the advances to the people on interest banks markups
are not much due to bank depository services not compatible. Vertical analyses show the
stable trend in income of the bank.
Organizational Analysis
Although Silk bank is in an industry where it has many competitors but it is being
compared as following two biggest competitors which are MCB and HBL:
Description (in
millions)
Silk bank MCB HBL
Assets 55,645,268 443,615 717,302
Liabilities 51,253,908 385,179 652,257
Profitability (2,014,268) 20,526 10,001
If Silk bank is compared with MCB and HBL, it is observe that HBL is a big banking
group as compare to Silk bank and MCB. Deposit wise HBL is in front of both ABL and
MCB. Although Silk bank is in good position as compare to HBL in deposit situation. It
shows customer’s trust on bank. Silk bank ahead in case of advances portfolio as
compare to HBL and MCB. Here health portfolio of advances places the Silk bank in
second position which is a good indicator. But profit wise MCB is in front of both HBL
and Silk bank in year 2008. Branches of HBL are greater than Silk bank and MCB. MCB
has greater number of employees as compared to Silk bank and HBL.
These figures show that HBL and MCB are in much better position than Silk bank in
profit. Short-term liquidity, including internal operating factors and / or access to
alternative sources of funds, is outstanding and safety is just below risk free Government
of Pakistan's short-term obligations.
The Bank is making every effort to meet the up-coming challenges through strategic
planning and making the best use of the resources at its command. These financial figures
and improving condition of the bank shows that ABL is among the leading commercial
banks of Pakistan.
Future Prospects of Silk bank
Silk bank aims to offer products that will change the industry norms by providing
innovations, options and flexibility unmatched so far by any other bank due to the
investment made in the state-of-the-art systems at Silk bank. Silk bank plans to expand
the market by its vast distribution network. Bank’s products & services are being
developed keeping in view the increased level of consumer awareness due to increased
accessibility of information, and hence the demand for better products and services with
options.
Management believes that their business process reengineering initiative supported by
their customized core banking technology platform will also help them to compete more
effectively in the changing landscape of the Pakistani banking sector. Bank’s Credit Risk
Environmental and Monitoring system which is in its final stages of implementation is
expected to assist them in more effective post disbursement monitoring.
Macro economic and political instability, going forward, will continue to impact growth
and profitability of the banking sector. Management believes that political reconciliation
will result in renewed attention to economic management and hence improvement in the
operating environment.
Management is focusing on converting the manual branches into online branching system
and also to expend their branch network domestically and internationally. Management is
also keen to increase the ATM network in future and plans have prepared for it.
Management believes the bank is well positioned to take advantage of the next economic
upturn.
Chapter 7:
Weaknesses
Of
Silk bank
Weak Aspects of Silk bank
Every organization has some area of improvement which is normally called
shortfall/weakness. These weaknesses can be converted into strength and
opportunities if these are planned and implement properly. I also noticed some
shortfall and weaknesses in Silk bank as an internee. Some major weaknesses are
mentioned below:-
1. Slow growth in advances.
2. Banks debts are at dangerous level.
3. Lack of investment in different sector.
4. Bank’s interest income is deceasing every year.
5. Lack of proper planning and evaluation of finance department.
6. New product are not launching as per time requirement.
7. Lack of research and analysis for availing new opportunities.
8. Bank’s performance evaluation/appraisal system is not efficient.
9. Poor network system to connecting the network and database.
Innovative Products
There are lack of new and innovative products which can be attract the customer and will
effective to the banking achievements.
Incentives
If we observe the employees satisfaction scheme we can observe that the lack of
satisfaction as an employee.
Technological Advancements
Silk bank has not using technological enhancement for their benefits.
Staff combination
The Branch has a good staff combination on the basis of experience, but their training
capabilities are not up to the requirements of the fast changing banking environment.
Technical training
The technical training of the staff is negligible e.g. in case of the absence of computer
there is no alternate trained personal who can record the daily transactions.
Chapter 8:
Conclusion
What I concluded?
It has been only one year since the establishment of Silkbank, and since its establishment
it has aimed to become the leading bank of Pakistan by that provides outstanding services
to its customers.
The bank has seen phenomenal growth in the past year by opening more branches in the
country, increasing the deposit base, while also increasing the assets and profits of the
bank.
The services that Silkbank provides have a great market penetration not only because of
their features but also the profit and markup rates that they charge. Also the products that
Silkbank provides cater to sector of the economy.
The top management of the bank is always developing strategies that cope with
unexpected challenges to deliver products and services more efficiently.
Furthermore, as the bank is growing, the number of employees at Silkbank are increasing,
which shows that Silkbank is being considered as an employer, that provides its
employees with a challenging environment to work in, where they can harness their full
potential and shows confidence as an employer by the employees of the bank.
Lastly to become the leading bank of Pakistan, Silkbank has to benchmark its services to
its major competitors in the industry or the market leader in the industry and provide a
continuous mean of improvement in its existing products and services, while introducing
new ones to the industry.
Chapter 9:
Findings
And
Recommendations
What I found and What I Suggest to Silk bank?
Based on the analysis of the Silk bank, it is observed that the Bank like the other public
sector industries has not been showing up to mark performance. There is a long list of
weaknesses that is given on the previous page. Most of them are going along since long
time and that all efforts made to remove them have not succeeded. On the basis of SWOT
analysis of the Bank the following suggestions and recommendations are given.
Bank should try to get rid of the political influence to be able to compete in the
industry with prudent and strong policies.
The undue reliance on the public sector be minimized and ventures of private sectors
should be taken as well.
Redefining of rules, regulations and policies should be made implemented at all costs.
Efforts of great importance to be made for the over the counter services of general
banking making it more simple and faster to get a better response of the customers.
The behavior of the employee, especially on the counter has to be strictly monitored
and checked.
The still existed bureaucratic approval system has to be demolished.
All advances should be made by getting the maximum security and should focus on
productive work.
Better and comprehensive long-term and short-term planning should be made to
forecast the future needs.
There is a possibility of establishing a task force to ascertain the effectiveness of the
policies being implemented.
The Bank should develop a comprehensive recruitment policy to make only the
competent ones to be on the job.
There is a still a vast pool of incompetent employees that has to right sized.
There is a lack of promotional element in the planning and budgetary decisions of the
Bank that has to think seriously.
All branches of the Bank should be computerized for increasing the effectiveness and
efficiency of its employees.
Efforts should be continued to keep the powers of employees union to the minimum,
like the current situation.
Promotions must not be delayed and should be made on time to further increase the
commitment and efficiency of the employees.
These and many other that can make a good set of recommendations, which have to be
made possible to escape from the threats and weaknesses and the risks in environment
that surrounds the Bank. The management do considers the policy matter that is not
helping the Bank, but is still in practice due the absence of prudentially regulated system
to protect them and the Bank.
Efforts have been made with serious concern to give Silk bank a status that it has to
maintain by having practices of:
Right sizing of the employees.
By closing unprofitable branches.
By introducing a merit based selection criteria.
Promotions made conditional with qualifications.
