TRANSCRIPT

All over the globe businesses are striving to meet customers needs and wants using the latest computer technology and information system. The arrival of computer technology has strengthened the customer-business relationships because todays businesses can serve their customer better than ever before. Information technology plays an increasing role in providing better financial services to customers. Implementation of information technology and communication network has brought revolution in the functioning of the banks and the financial institutions around the world. In the past twenty years, financial services have undergone deep and extensive changes in all aspects of their business: product and services,

Sectoral structure, market segmentation, competitive environment etc. Globalization has been particularly pronounced in wholesale banking and over the counter financial markets such as foreign exchange. Corporate leading and investment banking are dominated by few global players, active in all markets, established or emergent (Gold finger, 2007). Global business environment also extended the scope of retail banking all over the world for multinational financial solutions. This paper has considered such a multinational financial institutions named Standard chartered bank(SCB) to explore its overall Management Information System (MIS) units diversified banking functions.

Today, information systems provide the communication and analytical power that firms need for conducting trade and managing business on global scale (laudon and Laudon, 2003). The major objective of the paper is to find the uses of information systems in the different functional areas of Standard Cahartered Bank. The other specific objectives of the study are: To know the different functional areas of the bank.

To learn about the information infrastructure.

To evaluate the overall MIS system of Standard Chartered Bank.

RESEARCH METHODThere are basically two types of research methods and they are conclusive and exploratory. Considering the subject topic we have chosen exploratory method.

PRIMARY SOURCESTo collect our primary data, we have prepared several questionnaires, conducted survey to the practical the financial intuition which was of course the Standard chartered Bank and also conducted in-depth interview with the managers and also go for the following activities:

Interviews and discussion with the concerned authorities and officials in the bank to collect primary data.

Review of the information system policy

Overview of brochures and annual reports of the banks.

SECONDARY SOURCES For secondary data we have collected most of the data from the internet, textbooks and various journals of a very renowned website Review of various research papers available on the web.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY Time limitation was a big problem for us. We surveyed to the main branch and other branches of Standard chartered Bank.

It was hard to get all the complete source of information through oral conversation with the financial institution and technology. Amount of information is not that much because many of the

related were blocked by the University authority. We had other courses to complete, so we did not have enough

time to complete the final report as we planned.

Data collection process was not regular.

The purpose of Management Information System MIS) is to assist tactical level managers in taking decisions and to provide real time representative information to support their activities such as analyzing departmental data, planning and forecasting activates for their decision area (Lungu and Bara, 2005). Banking sector has undergone a radical transformation on adoption of superior technology to create the congenial atmoshphere for the managers performance. Productivity enhancement, innovative products, speedy transactions, seamless transfer of funds, real time information systems and efficient risk management are some of the advantages derived through technology (Goldfinger, 2007). Information technology has also improved the efficiency and robustness of business processes across the bank (OBrien, 1999).

In banking, digital access has many advantages over paper based access in terms of convenience and functionality. There are, of course, many challenges as well like continued access,

preservation and management of data. That is why certain general principles for electronic record management have been recommended(http://www.icfaiuniversitypress.org/books/ITinBanks_ov.asp,2007).

The international business environment comprises integrated financial markets. Rapid economic growth is facilitated by the operation of efficient payment system. Robust payment systems, which are essential for financial stability, inherently operate under different types of risk environment, the principal ones being liquidity and credit risk.

The committee on payment and settlement systems (CPSS) of the central banks of the group of ten countries has gone into this question and developed core principles for systematically important payment systems. The role of various central banks and other participants in the payment systems have also been defined (Goldfinger, 2007).

Internet banking has made banking a commodity where quality is measured by efficient servicing, effective pricing and timeliness (OBrien, 199). Some more likely services in e-banking are touch screens, video conferencing etc. which link customers to a call centre offering banking services. Screen telephones that enable customers to download electronic cash into a smart card are not far away. Secure electronic transaction (SET) standard, and electronic data interchange will also be available on the net. Banking online

still does not claim to be the safest way at all. Internet banking is mostly conducted automatically over a relatively safe kind of internet connection, the secure socket layers. The banks computer systems adopt high security measures, which can rarely be breached (Laudon and Laudon, 2003).The advantages of ATM's (Automated Teller Machine), like any time money, wider reach , easy to use etc, make them popular among the customers. But there are some disadvantages as well like stolen card being used by some one, card daglocking and PIN being cracked. Biometric technology can provide new age ATMs that will be free from these impediments and will enhance the security and comfort in the use of ATMs (Zaheer and Zaheer, 2003).

Base I-II implementations projects will have wide ranging effects on a bank's information technology systems, processes, people and business. It also stipulates allocation of regulatory capital for operational risk. Here the technology will need to focus mainly on data collection, tracking and monitoring, analysis and reporting of operational risk (http://www.icfaiuniversitypress/books/ITin banks_ov.asp, 2007). With bank deducting on setting up networks and computerizing the whole banking process, and providing services through multiple channel, they face many risks. Mail spoofing, web spoofing, attacking the user computer, attacking the bank's server, media impersonation, sniffing information and hacking. Frauds of this nature may be prevented by adopting public key infrastructure (PKI). Other frauds may be minimized through firewalls and intrusion detection system (IDS) (O'Brien, 1999)

The chain of command

Standard Chartered Bank in Bangladesh follows a hierarchical pattern of command. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) reports to the Regional General Manager, MESA in Dubai.

In Chittagong, however, since there are two major business activities, a manager or senior manager, who reports directly to the head of the respective division in Dhaka, heads each. The Custodial Service division at the headquarters reports to the Head of Corporate Banking.

The respective branch managers are responsible for the performance of their unit. Each branch is organized functionally along line divisions with some support facilities and the manager assigns tasks to his/her subordinate personnel and supervises their performance, instructions are often given without necessary details and clarifications. The following chart demonstrates a clear view from which a clear idea can be striven;
