My study has completed at Mirpur branch, which is started on July 12, 2010 with the 14 efficient
& responsible employees. Although this Branch has past only one, it has created positive image
not only to the SJIBL but also to the customers. There are some efficient and effective bankers
workers in this Branch. The management of the Branch always tries to provide better service to
its customer and behave well with them. As a result they have got a huge number of accounts in
this branch. Last year this Branch also has stood fifth place among all Branches of SJIBL. As a
new Branch it is a tremendous victory for the management.
There are mainly three divisions in this Branch. The General Banking Division deals the day to
day transactions. This is highest busy department among all the three departments. The
Investment Division/Credit Division gives loan to the customer and monitor whether he repays
regularly or not. As the Branch did not become AD Branch yet, the foreign Exchange Division
deals their activities with the help of Foreign Exchange Branch of SJIBL.

2.17: WORKING EXPERIENCE AT SJIBL:
2. 17.1 INTRODUCTION:
Internship has provided me the opportunity to coordinate the theoretical knowledge that I have
gathered in BUBT with the Practical field. Although three months is not a very long period to
learn the whole thing that usually occurs in an organization, I tried my best to learn as much as I
could.
The supervisor divided my job into three parts. 1) The general Banking department 2) The
Credit /Investment division and 3) The Foreign Exchange department. At first I was placed to the
General Banking department. I worked there for 20 days. Then I moved to the Credit department.
I also worked there for 20 days and finally I moved to the Credit department to work there for 20
days. The supervisor kept the rest 30 days for me to collect information for the project and for
writing the project. As my main concern was to collect information from the Credit department, I
spent most of the time in the Credit department
At first I was placed to this Division. The officers gave all the briefings about this Division.
Demand deposits: These deposits are withdrawal of money without notice. There are two types
of Demand deposit in this Branch.
Time deposits: A deposit which is payable at a fixed date or after a period of notice is a time
deposit. I fond two types of Time deposit in the Branch.
23
Mudaraba Term Deposit Receipt (MTDR)
Mudaraba Short term deposit (MSTD)
Cheque Book issue is a very sensitive issue because most of the fraud occur through this cheque
book. To open an individual savings account one need to have an introducer in this Bank. But to
open a current account one needs to submit the trade license. And if it is Partnership Company,
the customers need to submit the partnership deed. I also dealt with opening other deposit scheme
like Millenure Scheme, Digun Bridhy Prakalpa, special savings Scheme etc. I also dealt with
receiving documents/ letters. In clearing section, I learned about Outward Bill Collection (OBC),
Inward Bill Collection (IBC), and Inter bank Bill Transaction. Account (IBTA), and Endorsement
etc. The bank has to keep record of the collecting cheque & return cheque in the registered book
and some other record keeping books and requires preparing particular schedule paper for
sending to the head office within 3 p.m. everyday. In the Transfer Register the Debit and the
Credit balance should be matched. Otherwise they need to recalculate the whole transaction
again. The total amounts of every record have to exactly same. I had to work in the deposit
section where I have gathered high knowledge about banking deposit. My supervisor told about
different types of deposit scheme of the Bank and how they operate all of them. I become myself
acquainted with different kinds of deposit of this Branch. This Branch mainly deals with ACD,
MDS, MSD, and MTDR I also learned about the local remittance system of the branch. I had to
write voucher of pay order, DD & TT and also transferred it into the register book. I saw that, it
was very essential for every DD, TT & PO to match the test number. If the test number didnt
24
match, then the authority cancelled that. There is one responsible officer who deals with the daily
voucher. He needs to check all the voucher used previous day and make a Muri of those
vouchers. End of the day the officer needs to receive all the vouchers from every section to keep
all the vouchers together. I got the opportunity to become acquainted with these facts. The cash
in charge and the man who posts the transaction in the computer need to match end of the day.
2. 17 .3 INVESTMENT DIVISION:
This is the place where I have spent most of my intern time duration. My intern supervisor is the
head of this Division. So I have the opportunity to learn about the different functions of this
division. The main business of a bank is to provide Credits to the customers. But if the
management does not understand the customers intention the bank might loose huge amount
money from that project. This department exercises the lending function; therefore, distribute its
funds among various assets in a manner as to drive sufficient income. The different tasks I found
in this division are as follows:
Except the proposal of different loan from the customer.
Verifying the customers.
Investigate the customers work place.
Lending Risk Analysis (LRA)
Send report to the CIB for bigger loans
Issuing loan for the customer.
Collecting Charge documents from the customers
Issuing CCS, SOD, small loan, Doctors credit scheme etc.
Monitoring the recovery
Report to the head office about recovery rate of different
Sending letters to the defaulter.
Contact with defaulters etc.
My supervisor told me about all the factions of this department and how they deal with theses
factors. Secured overdraft is one the important task of this Division. The bank gets 16% interest
from this loan. A person can take loan from his or her fixed deposit. Consumer Credit scheme is
another important task of this division. When a loan is issued to the customers the bank needs to
take charge documents from the party. If the party becomes defaulter and the bank requires
submitting sue against that party charge document help the bank a lot. This division needs to
monitor the recovery rate of each month. The responsible officer sends the report about the
25
condition of the loan each and every month. So the officer collect information from the cash
department whether all the customers repaid the loan not. After getting the information he needs
to send letters to the defaulters for repaying the loan immediately. Otherwise he needs to contact
personally with the customers physically or through telephone. In lending, the most important
step is the selection of the borrower. Due to the asymmetric information and moral hazard, banks
have to suffer a lot due to the classified loans and Credits, which weakens the financial soundness
of the bank. If the selection of the borrower is correct, i.e. the borrower is of good character,
capital and capacity or of reliability, resourceful and responsible; the bank can easily get the
return from the lending. For this the division needs to prepare lending risk Analysis for the
persons who want to take bigger loans. And send it to the head office so that that they can verify
all the things and issue it for the customers.
In this division I had to observe all the things and had to help the officer to learn about this
division. Some times I had to go with my supervisor to investigate the customer physically.
This is one of the busy departments, I have found in the Mirpur Branch. There are three people
working from morning to till evening. The big customers that means the customers who have
taken higher amount of loan from this Branch needs to have busy with their business. The Export
and Importers need to for opening L/C or go for Back to Back L/C.
Task of this Division:
Issue L/C.
L/C Advising & Conforming.
L/C Collection & Negotiating.
FDBP.
This Branch not an AD branch. So the branch needs to do their foreign dealings with the help of
Foreign Exchange branch. On the first day of this division, the officer told me about all the term
and conditions of this division. He made me understand about how to open letter of Credit and
Back to Back L/C what are the requirements of opening L/C, advising and conforming of L/C.
This was a great opportunity for me to gather knowledge about impact of foreign trade as well as
the policy and regulation of Bangladesh bank.
26
In this division I just discussed with different terms and read some files and documents. Because,
in this department the job were more-or-less based on document verification by getting true and
perfect information. There are formats of making documents in the computer. The authorized
person just changes the numbers & other required things from the format and prepares documents
for the customers.

PART - 3.0 THEORETICAL BACKGROUNDS:

3.1 Introduction:
Islami 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 the receipt and payment of
interest on any of its operation. For millions of Muslims, banks were institution to be avoided.
Islam is a religion, which keeps Believers from the tellers window. Their Islamic beliefs prevent
them from dealings that involve usury or interest (Riba). Yet Muslim needs banking services as
much as anyone and for many purposes: to finance new business ventures, to buy a house, to
facilitate capital Investment to undertake trading activities and to offer safe place for saving.
Muslims are not averse to legitimate profit as Islam encourages people to use money in Islamic
ally legitimate ventures not just to keep their funds idle.
However in this fast moving world more than 1400 years after the Prophet (S.A.W) can Muslims
find room for the principles of their religion? The answer comes with the fact that a global
network of Islamic banks investment house and other financial institution have started to take
shape based on the principals of Islamic finance laid down in the Quran and the Prophets
traditions some 14 centuries ago. Islamic banking based on the Quranic prohibition of changing
interest has moved from a theoretical concept to embrace more than 100 banks operating in 40
countries with multibillion-dollar deposits worldwide. Islamic banking is widely regarded as the
fastest growing sector in the Middle Eastern financial services market. Exploding onto the
financial scene barely thirty years ago an estimated $US100 billion worth of funds are now
managed according to Shariah.
The best-known feature of Islamic Banking is the prohibition on interest. The Holy Quran forbids
the charging of Riba on money lent. It is important to understand certain principles of Islam that
underpin Islamic finance. Muslim scholars accepted the word Riba to mean any fixed or
guaranteed interest payment on cash advances or on deposits.
Islamic Banking comes into reality through a long theoretical exercise of several renowned
Islamic scholars and economists. The first attempt to establish an Islamic financial institution
took place in Pakistan in 1950. In the modern world, the pioneering role in establishing the first
Islamic Bank in 1963 named Mit- Ghamar Saving Bank in Egypt at rural area of Nile Delta.
As on today, there are many Islamic financial institutions operating through out the world
29
covering both Muslim and non-Muslim countries of various socio-economic environment.
All Islamic banks operate current account on behalf of their client individuals and
business firms. These accounts are operated for the safe custody of deposits and for the
convenience of customers.
1. Savings accounts are opened with the condition that deposits provide the bank with an
authorization to invest and
2. Depositors have the right to deposit and withdraw funds.
3. The profits in savings accounts are calculated on the minimum balance maintained during
the month
4. A minimum balance has to be maintained in order to qualify for a share in profit.
Islamic banks around the world have devised many creative financial products based on the risk
sharing and profit sharing principles of Islamic banking. For day to day banking activities a
number of financial instruments have been developed that satisfy the Islamic doctrine and provide
acceptable financial returns for investors.
30
1. The division of profits between the two parties must necessarily be on a proportional
basis and cannot be a lump sum or guaranteed return.
2. The investor is not liable for losses beyond the capital he has contributed.
3. The mudarib does not share in the losses except for the loss of his time and efforts.
3.4.2. Murabaha:
This is the sale of a commodity at a price, which includes a stated profit, which includes a stated
profit known to both the vendor and the purchaser. This can be called a cost plus profit contract.
The buyer in deferred payments usually pays the price back.
This is a partnership normally of limited duration formed to carry out a specific project. It is
therefore similar to a western- style joint venture, and is regarded by some as the purest from of
Islamic financial instrument, since it conforms to the underlying partnership principles of sharing
in and benefiting from risk.
3.4.4. Ijarah (Lease financing)
Another popular instrument is leasing which is designed for financing an asset or equipment. It is
a manfaah (benefit) or the right to use the asset or equipment. The lessor leases out an asset or
equipment to the client at an agreed rental fee for a pre-determined period pursuant to the
contract.
Equivalent to the leasing and installment loan, hire- purchase, practices that put millions of
drivers on the road each year.
3.4.6. Muqarada
This technique allows a bank to flat what are effectively Islamic bonds to finance a specific
project. Investors who buy muqaradah bonds take a share of the profits of the project being
financed, but also share the risk of unexpectedly low profits or even losses.
3.4.7. Bai-Salam
31
A buyer pays in advance for a specified quality of a commodity, deliverable on a specific date at
an agreed price. This financing technique, similar to a futures or forward- purchase contract is
particularly applicable to seasonal purchase but it can also be used to buy other goods in cases
where the seller needs working capital before he can deliver.
This is a sale and purchase agreement whereby the seller undertakes to manufacture or construct
according to the specification given in the agreement. It is similar to bai salam the main
distinction being the nature of the asset and method of payment. Istisna generally covers those
things which are customarily made to order and advance payment of money is not necessary as
required in bai salam.
3.4.9. Bai-Muajjal
In short, it is a sale on credit. Bai-Muajjal may be defined as a contract between a buyer and
seller under which the seller sells specific goods to the buyerat an agreed fixed price payable at a
certain fixed future date in lump sum or within a fixed period by fixed installments.
Shirkat means partnership. Shirkatul Melk means share in ownership when two or more persons
supply equity to purchase an asset own the same jointly and share the benefit as per agreement
and bear the loss in proportion to their equity, the contract is called Shirkatul Melk contract.
3.4.11. Quard-Al-Hasan
It is a virtuous loan. Through this mode, Bank provides loan to its customer for a certain period,
which bears no profit/loss/compensation.
32
Islamic Bank without the help/assistance of any client may directly invest its fund/capital in
share, securities, business and industry. Profit and loss in this business is exclusively, the internal
matter of the Bank.

The word comes from the Latin word credo meaning I believe. It is a lenders trust in a

return for promise to pay such goods or services at some specified time in the future. The making
of loans and advances has always been prominent profitable function of the Bank. The investment
facilities extended by Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited, Mirpur Branch can be classified by
following ways:
Depositors may even be in need of money to purchase required products/goods for their
personal/family use or to meet urgent family requirements. In such a situation, they require
investment facility against their deposit with the Band. Shahjalal Islami Band Limited (SJIBL) is
also providing such investment facility to its depository customers as part of financial obligation

PART 9: FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF SHAHJALAL ISLAMI BANK LTD.:
Financial analysis is so much essential for each and every business institution as well as for the
Banking institutions to assess their past financial performance and to identify the sources, where
the necessary improvement is needed to perform better in the future and to meet the future
challenges by taking effective business strategy. Financial analysis typically is associated with
ratio analysis. Ratio analysis involves the methods of calculating and interpreting the financial
ratios to analyze the firms relative financial performance. The main purpose of this analysis is to
analyze and monitor the firms financial performance, so, that the interested parties (both the
external and internal) can realize the firms actual performance easily and conveniently, which is
so much essential for the parties. There are several ratios that help a particular analyst to analyze
the past performance of a particular firm and to diagnose the various relevant variables, which are
important for improving the future operation of that firm. The financial ratios, that are useful for
analyzing the past financial performance of a financial institution, such as Bank, can be
divided into five broad categories for convenience and they are enumerated below --------
Liquidity Ratio.
Operating Efficiency Ratio.
Profitability ratio.
Capital Ratio.
Market Ratio
These five groups of financial ratios are used to analyze a particular firms past financial
performance and to identify the sectors where the necessary improvement is needed to make the
future performance of the firm far better than the past. It is also mentionable that there are three
types of ratio comparison and they are
88
Combined Analysis: combines both the Cross-Sectional and Combined
Analysis.
And in this section of the report I am going to evaluate the financial performance of the
SHAHJALAL ISLAMI BANK LTD. over time by calculating and interpreting some common
ratios. All the important ratios to analyze and evaluate the financial performance of the
SHAHJALAL ISLAMI BANK LTD. are calculated and interpreted in the following next pages:
9.1.0. Liquidity Ratio: It measures a firms ability to meet up or satisfy its short tem
obligations, as they become due. The commonly used liquidity ratios are ----
9.1.1. Current Ratio: A measure of liquidity, calculated by dividing the current assets by current
liabilities. It shows the level of current assets that a particular firm has against per Taka of current
liabilities of that firm. So the equation becomes
Particulars years
2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009
Current
Ratio 1.1 1.04 1.33 1.38 1.48 1.12 1.11
89
Interpretation: We know that, the current ratio measures a firms liquidity by measuring the
portion of its current asset relative to its current liabilities and the higher the ratio, the higher the
liquidity of the firm. So, after observing the graph shown above, it can be said that the
companys current ratio is fluctuating year to year and Banks current ratios are always below the
standard level (2), which is not good and risky for the firm Shahjalal Islami Bank Ltd. In 2008
and 2009 it was decreasing from the following years. But In past year 2003 to 2006 Banks
current ratio as well as the liquidity is increasing at slow rate, which was n
good for the Bank and the reason is that the Bank has maintained a steady level of current
liabilities during that period of time.
9.2.0. Operating Efficiency Ratio: The ratio measures a particular Banks operating
efficiency, which is the Banks ability to serve its customers in the most effective way by using
least amount of resources (such as time, cost etc.). The following ratios are widely used to
measure a particular Banks operating efficiency:
9.2.1. Operating Cost to Income Ratio: It measures a particular Banks operating efficiency by
measuring the percent of the total operating income that the Bank spends to operate its daily
activities. It is calculated as follows:
Particulars years
2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009

Figure:9.2.1: Operating Cost to Income Ratio of SJIBL
Interpretation: We know that this ratio measures the operating efficiency of a particular Bank
my measuring the portion of the total operating costs relative to the total operating income of that
Bank and the higher the ratio, the lower the operating efficiency and vice-versa. So, after
observing the figure drawn above, It can be said that the efficiency of the Bank has been able to
minimize its operating costs during the time period between years of 2003 to 2007 was
decreasing, which is a very good sign for the bank. But in 2009 it is increasing.
9..2.2. Total Asset Turnover: Total Asset Turnover indicates the efficiency with which the firm
uses its assets to produce operating income. It is calculated by using the following formula

91
Total Asset
Turnover
Interpretation: We know that this ratio measures the return from per unit of total assets and the
efficiency of the Bank in using its total assets to generate operating income and the higher the
ratio, the higher the efficiency of the Bank in using its assets. So, after observing the given graph,
It can said that the return from per unit of total asset, as well as the Banks efficiency in
generating income is fluctuating year to year and the Bank generated the maximum level of
turnover in year 2007 and lowest level of turnover in the following year 2004 but from the year
2005 the return from per unit of asset is increasing, as the operating income of the Bank has
increased a lot during the year 2007 as the Bank has expanded its geographic coverage by
establishing some new branches and its efficiency continue following year.
9.2.3. Investment to Deposit Ratio: It shows the operating efficiency of a particular Bank in
promoting its investment product by measuring the percentage of the total deposit disbursed by
the Bank as loan & advance or as investment. The ratio is calculated as follows:
92
PARTICULARS YEARS
2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009
Investment to
Deposit Ratio 70.69% 78.63% 86.77% 85.76% 91.15% 96.03% 92.62%
Interpretation: From the figure drawn above, I am able to say that, the Banks investment to
deposit ratio is fluctuating year to year and in the year 2008 the Bank has disbursed the highest
amount of loan & advances, which is the highest of the total amount of deposit collected by the
Bank in the same year and the year 2003-2006 the Bank has disbursed on an average of above of
the total deposit collected by the Bank in each year, which is good for the Bank.
93
9.3.0. Profitability Ratios: These ratios help us to evaluate the firms profits with respect to
operating income, assets, or equity. Ratios are ----
9.3.1. Net Profit Margin: It measures the percentage total operating income, that remains after
all the costs and expenses have been paid. It is calculated as follows ---
PARTICULARS YEARS
94
Interpretation: we know that this ratio shows us the portion of total operating income that
remains after deducting all the costs and expenditure for particular period of time. From the
above graph, it can be said that the companys net profit margin is fluctuating year to year or over
the time and the Bank has generated maximum amount of net profit margin in the year 2006,
which is 43.20% and lowest amount of margin in 2003 which is 0.00% and in the year of 2004
the banks profit turn into negative position which is -219.04% because in that particular year
some directors go another bank and they withdraw their investment amount. So I can conclude
that the Bank generates net profit from year 2005 on an average rate of above 41% of the total
operating income. From 2007 the net profit margin of the Bank has decreased as the Banks
operating expense has increased during the year as the Bank has established new branches, which
has increased the Banks fixed and non-interest expense.
9.3.2. Return on Total Assets (ROA): It is also called Return on Investment (ROI) and it
measures the overall effectiveness of management in generating profit with its available assets. It
is calculated as follows ----
Particulars YEARS
95
Exhibit:9.3.2: Return on Asset of SJIBL
Interpretation: After having a careful view on the graph I am able to say that the Banks
effectiveness to generate return by using its available assets is fluctuating year to year and the
Bank has generated maximum amount of ROA from the year of 2007 and due to lack of
efficiency in utilization of assets the Banks ROA falls in the minimum level in the year of 2004
that turn into a negative figure because in that particular year some directors go another bank and
they withdraw their investment amount.
9..3.3. Return on Equity (ROE): It measures the return earned by the funds invested by the
common stockholders. It is calculated as follows -----
PARTICULARS YEARS
2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2006 2007
96
Exhibit:9.3.3: Return on Equity of SJIBL
Interpretation: The Companys return on equity is decreasing in the starting time, which is not
good for the Bank. The Bank has generated maximum amount of ROE in the year 2006, which is
38.44% but after that, the Banks ROE is worst position in the year of 2003 which is 0.00% and
in the year of 2004 it turn into a negative figure that is -176.07%. The ROE is decreasing falls as
the amount of proposed dividend and paid up capital of the Bank has increased lot during this
period of time but compare to that the amount of net profit is not increasing that much as the
operating income of the Bank is increasing as the Bank as established some new branches during
this period of time.
9.4.0. Capital Ratio: This type of ratio analyze a particular Banks capital structure and help us
to determine the level of assets financed by the Banks creditors and the level of assets financed
by the firms shareholders funds. The common types of ratios are as follows:
9.4.1. Debt Ratios: The ratio analyzes a firms debt position, which indicates the amount of other
people money being used in the firm to generate profits by measuring the portion of total asset
financed by the firms creditor. This ratio is calculated as follows ---

Debt Ratio 95.95% 97.22% 94.61% 94.35% 90.17% 91.83% 91.64%
Interpretation: After having a careful view on the graph, we can see that the company, SJIBL
has financed on an average of above 94% of its total assets with debt in every year but from the
year 2004 the Banks debt position is started to fall, as the Bank is now emphasizing on equity
capital financing and the Bank has lowest level of debt ratio in the year 2007 as the Bank has
increased its paid up capital of Tk. 1872 (In Million Taka). In 2008 and 2009 position is
satisfactory.
9..4.2. Equity Capital Ratio: The ratio shows the position of the Banks owners equity by
measuring the portion of total assets financed by the share holders invested funds and it is
calculated as follows:

ratio 3.95 2.76 5.13 5.65 9.83 8.17 8.36
Interpretation: From the figure, shown above it can be said that, from the year 2003 the Banks
equity capital ratio is fluctuating year to year, which indicates that the Bank is emphasizing on
shareholders funds to finance its total assets and the Bank has financed on an average of above
5% of its total assets by using the shareholders invested capital and the Bank has maximum level
of equity capital ratio in the year 2007, which is 9.83% as the Bank has increased its equity
capital by increasing the paid up capital of Tk. 1872 crore. But in 2008 and 2009 it has been
decreased drastically.

PART 10: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS WITH SAME NATURE ORGANIZATION:
I have mentioned in the earlier part of the report that, financial analysis typically is associated
with ratio analysis. Ratio analysis involves the methods of calculating and interpreting the
financial ratios to analyze the firms relative financial performance. And there are three types of
ratio comparison viz.
Cross-Sectional Analysis,
Time Series Analysis and
101
Combined Analysis.
And in this part of the report, I am going to make a comparative study on the financial
performance of Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) by using the Cross-Sectional Ratio
Analysis method and I have chosen the EXIM BANK LIMITED as a peer Bank of EXIM for my
Cross-sectional Analysis to evaluate the actual financial performance of the EXIM Bank. Before
moving towards the analysis, I would like to give a brief on EXIM Bank Limited for our better
understanding and to have a clear idea about the compared organization:
The EXIM Bank of Bangladesh Limited is an Islamic Shariah based commercial Bank,
which is committed to provide high quality financial services to contribute to the growth of
G.D.P. (Gross Domestic Product) of the country through stimulating trade & commerce,
accelerating the pace of industrialization, boosting up export, creating employment opportunity
for the educated youth, Poverty alleviation, raising standard of living of the limited income group
and over all socio-economic development of the country.
The Bank offers full range of Personal, Corporate, International Trade, Foreign Exchange, Lease
Finance and Capital Market Services. EXIM Bank Limited is the preferred choice in banking for
its friendly and personalized services, cutting edge technology, tailored solutions for business
needs, global reach in trade and commerce and high yield on investments, assuring Excellence in
Banking Services.
102
The performance of the Bank, during the period under review (2003 2009), is more significant
simultaneously in development and achievements of continuous growth rate in all the areas of
banking operations. The Bank has successfully been marching ahead with its prime business
objective by earning a pre- tax profit of Tk. 1,618,797,086 million registering an annual growth
than that of the previous year, which is 2006 with a profit of 1,199,490,935. The amount of total
assets of the Bank as on 31 December, 2007 stood at Tk. 5 1,503,027,985million, more than that
of the previous year 2006. In the year 2007, the Banks after tax Return on Assets (ROA) is
2.00%which is well above the industry average and it was 1.73%in the previous year. In the year
2007, the total amount of statutory liquidity requirement (SLR) reserve held by the Bank with
Bangladesh Bank was Tk. 1, 134,639,838 million. In 2008 the bank recorded its operating profit
103
A particular SWOT analysis discloses the following issues for an organization that an
organization achieved over the time of its operation by analyzing its both internal and external
environment:
S- STRENGTHS
W-WEAKNESS
O-OPPORTUNITIES
T-THREATS
10.2.1. STRENGTHS:
Superior Financial Services: Reputation of being a provider of superior quality
financial services among its customers, particularly the Investment department has

SJIBL also provide the same satisfactory work to their customer.
Differentiated Islamic Banking Products: Because SJIBL and EXIM several types of
differentiated Islamic Banking Products (both deposit and investment) with unique
features and facilities, which are so much helpful for enhancing the economic growth.

lower income groups to improve their living standards by creating more awareness and
motive of savings among them.
Concentration for students: Special concentration on the students to develop savings
habit among them and SJIBL has an education savings scheme for the students.
Maintain account in low amount: Relatively low minimum balance/deposit
requirement to maintain an account with the Bank. On the other hand SJIBL has

Skilled personnel: Co-operative & skilled personnel, who are very much specialized in
interacting with clients both EXIM and SJIBL
Correspondent with other financial institutions: SJIBL and EXIM have strong

distinctive training program time to time. On the other hand SJIBL also arrange

104
Capital: Strong capital base and maintain all the statutory requirements to be a good
Bank.
Strong concentration on Investment: EXIM bank is an Islamic perspective bank, it
also maintain strong concentration on investment. On the other hand Investment
Division is the heart of SJIBL and main business area of the bank. Bank gives loans to
the client by judging their business and concern how the clients repay the loan
Strong monitoring Process: EXIM banks officials strongly monitor every area of
investment. In the other hand in SJIBL investment terms and conditions are monitored,
financial statements are received on a regular basis, and any covenant exceptions are
referred to the branch manager for timely follow up.
10.2.2. WEAKNESSES:
Long account opening procedure: Various requirements demanded by the Bank to
open a new account both EXIM and SJIBL.
Narrow portfolio: Narrow product/service portfolio (particularly the deposit portfolio)
on the other hand SJIBL has their strong product portfolio..
Geographic coverage: Both EXIM & SJIBL Low geographic coverage (only nine
branches are operating in rural areas).
Credit card facility: EXIM unable to provide credit card facility for all customer
groups. It provides credit card facility only for the selected customer groups but SJIBL
provide credit card all class of people.
Unavailable online facility: Unavailability of online Banking facility, on the other
hand SJIBL has an online facility in every branch.
Promotional Activities: Both EXIM and SJIBL Lack of strong and attractive
promotional activities.
10.2.3. OPPORTUNITIES:
Perception of Islami Bank: Strong appetite for Islamic financial services among the
people of Bangladesh.
High rate of return: Possibility to generate very high rate of return as compared to
fixed rate of interest both EXIM and SJIBL.
Use latest technology: The use of latest technology in all spheres of banking, which
will increase the banks efficiency and service quality more.
105
Online facility: Introduction of online banking facility will enable the bank to offer its
banking service beyond its national border for EXIM; on the other hand SJIBL has a
strong online facility.
10.2.4. THREATS:
Lack of awareness regarding Islamic network: Lack of awareness regarding the
Islamic Banking system among the people of Bangladesh.
Complexion in product name: Name of the products are so much difficult to
understand and very much confusing, such as Mudaraba, Murabaha.
Increased competition: Increased competition from fellow Islamic Banks and Other
Private Commercial Banks (PCBs).
Lack of guide line by the central bank: Lack of adequate guideline by the Central
Bank on the basis of Islamic Shariah.
Fund collection from the market: Limitation (as an Islamic Bank) to borrow from the
money market (short term funds), which may produce a threat to the liquidity of the
Bank.
Government rules and regulations: Unfavorable Government rules and regulation
regarding Banking business.
Unfavorable climate for the banking sector: Unfavorable economic and
political climate, such as high inflation rate & continuous devaluation of money.
10.3.1. Liquidity Ratio: It measures a firms ability to meet up or satisfy its short tem
obligations, as they become due. The commonly used liquidity ratios are ----
106
10.3.1.1. Current Ratio: The equation is Current ratio = Current Assets / Current
Liabilities
107
Interpretation: We know that, the current ratio measures a firms liquidity by measuring the
portion of its current asset relative to its current liabilities and the higher the ratio, the higher the
liquidity of the firm. So, after observing the graph shown above, it can be said that - EXIM
Banks current ratio has started to rise from the year 2004 but it is always below the standard
level (2), which is not good and risky for the EXIM Bank. On the other hand, the current ratio of
Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) is increasing year to year at an increasing rate but the
ratio is also below the standard level. So it can be said that both the Bank is suffering from
liquidity problem but both are improving year by year.
10.3.2. Operating Efficiency Ratio: The ratio measures a particular Banks operating
efficiency, which is the Banks ability to serve its customers in the most effective way by using
least amount of resources (such as time, cost etc.). The following ratios are widely used to
measure a particular Banks operating efficiency:
108
Exhibit:10.3.2.1: Cost Comparison Of SJIBL with Exim
Interpretation: We know that this ratio measures the operating efficiency of a particular Bank
my measuring the portion of the total operating costs relative to the total operating income of that
Bank and the higher the ratio, the lower the operating efficiency and vice-versa. So, after
observing the figure drawn above, I am able to say that, during the time period between the years
2003 to 2005, the operating efficiency of the EXIM Bank was increasing, which was a good sign
for the Bank but from the year 2006, the ratio started to increase, which indicates that the Bank
is incurring more costs than that of previous years and this is not a good sign for the Bank. On the
other hand, Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) has been able to minimize its operating costs
during the time period between years of 2005 to 2009 which is a very good sign for the bank. So
in comparison with EXIM Bank, SJIBL is more efficient in controlling & minimizing its
operating costs year to year.
10.3.2.2. Total Asset Turnover: Total Asset Turnover indicates the efficiency with which the firm
uses its assets to produce operating income. It is calculated by using the following formula
109
31.12.2008 0.053 0.052
31.12.2009 0.049 0.053
110
31.12.2004 -219.04% 31.52%
Interpretation: From the above graph, it can be said that the EXIM Banks profit margin is
fluctuating year to year or over the time and the Bank has generated maximum amount of net
profit margin in the year 2009, which is 37.87% and lowest amount of margin in 2003 which is
30.31%. So I can conclude that the Bank generates net profit in each year on an average rate of
above 31% of the total operating income. On the other hand, SJIBL profit margin in 2003 starts
from 0 and in 2004 it has negative profit but by the years between 2007 it generates profit more
111
than EXIM. So it can be easily said that SJIBL performance and profitability is much better
than EXIM bank recently.
112
Interpretation: After having a careful view on the graph I am able to say that the both the
Banks effectiveness to generate return by using its available assets is fluctuating year to year and
both the Banks have generated maximum amount of ROA in the year of 2007 but in case of
comparison, recently SJIBL and EXIM both are efficient to generate ROA .
10.3.3.3. Return on Equity (ROE): It measures the return earned by the funds invested by
the common stockholders. It is calculated as follows ----
113
Exhibit:10.3.3: Comparison study on ROE position of SJIBL with EXIM
Interpretation: The EXIM Bank has generated maximum amount of ROE in the year 2003, but
after that, the Banks ROE is decreasing year to year, which is not favourable for the EXIM Bank.
The ROE is decreasing from the year 2004 to year 2006. In the other hand SJIBL performance is
lower in 2004 but they are able to improve their ROE in the following years. They reached
highest ROE in 2006. Having a negative ROE in year 2004 they are able to improve more
than EXIM. But two banks ROE is stable and same in 2009.

10. 3.4.2. Equity Capital Ratio: The ratio shows the position of the Banks owners equity by
measuring the portion of total assets financed by the share holders invested funds and it is
calculated as follows:
Equity Capital Ratio = Total Shareholders Equity/Total Asset
116
Interpretation: From the graph, shown over it can be said that, from the year 2005 the EXIM
Banks equity capital ratio is increasing year to year, which indicates that the Bank is
emphasizing on shareholders funds to finance its total assets and the Bank has financed on an
average of above 5% of its total assets by using the shareholders invested capital and the Bank
has maximum level of equity capital ratio in the year 2007, as the Bank has increased its equity
capital. On the other hand, equity capital ratio of Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) is
increasing year to year and the Bank (SJIBL) has financed maximum amount of its total assets by
using the shareholders invested capital in year 2007. So it can be said that both the Bank is
putting emphasis on equity capital financing.

PART 11: FINDINGS:
11.1. ON SELECTED ORGANIZATION: All of the findings that are originated from the analysis
are enumerated below:
11.1.1. Findings from Financial Performance Analysis of Shahjalal Islami Bank Ltd.: After
analyzing the financial performance of the SJIBL, I have identified the following crucial issues of
the financial performance of the Shahjalal Islami Bank Ltd.:
SJIBL is newly 4th generation bank of our country. The liquidity level of the Bank is
fluctuating year to year and always below the standard limit. But recently the Banks
liquidity level has started to rise, which is a good sign for the Bank.
The Banks operating cost to income ratio started to go down from the year 2003 and it
maintain a standard level of low operating cost. That is a good sign for the bank.
The Banks total asset turnover is in bad position in the year 2004 but from the year
2005 it has started to rise.
The Banks net profit margin is going in worst position in the year 2004 & thats turn
into negative figure (219.04%) and from the next year 2005 it has started to rise, and
still now it turn into a profitable way, which is a good sign for the Bank.
118
The Banks ROA and ROE position is very good except in the year 2004.
The Bank has financed on an average of above 94% of its total assets with debt in
every year but from the year 2004 the Banks debt position is started to fall, as the Bank
is now emphasizing on equity capital financing.
The Bank has financed on an average of above 6% of its total assets by using the
shareholders invested capital and the Bank has maximum level of equity capital ratio
in the year 2007, which is 9.83% and continue the following year.
The Banks market value (value of the Bank to the investors) is increasing year to year
thats a good indication for the bank.
11.1.2 Findings from the analysis-
While working on Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited, Mirpur Branch, I have attained a newer kind of
experience. After collecting and analyzing data I have some findings. These findings are
completely my personal view to research work.
SJIBL mainly includes several types of loan facilities and generally the bank prefers
term investment facilities.
The level of short term investment in the general investment portfolio is decreasing,
while the level of long term investment is increasing.
At Shahjalal Islami Bank, the average investment processing time is relatively long.
This statement is particularly true for project loan processing, which usually takes over
one month.
SJIBL risk grading analysis on the based o security of the proposed investment facility
and market reputation of the borrower.
According to Bangladesh banks guideline the approval authority should be delegated to
the individual executives and not to committees to ensure accountability in approval
process. But in SJIBL all loan approval authority centralized in Head office.
Shahajalal Islami Bank limited has a written investment policy manual, which act as
guideline for the branch officials and which is available in every branch.
In Shahjalal Islami Bank investment monitoring is done by investment in charge under
supervision of Branch managers.
In SJIBL the portion of classified investment is very low and the bank has a very strong
and well organizes division for recovery of loans.
119
Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited has lack of strong supervision for which loans are
defaulted.
In terms of repayment large loan has performed better than small sized loan.
This bank started on-line service. As a result customers are getting the full service by
the on-line service. But sometimes they have to face problem with on-line account.
Branches are very much enthusiastic to provide more service to the clients. Investment
Division is an efficient department. They are very much prompt to give decision to their
valued client. Head Office Credit committee sits regularly on weekly basis. They never
keep any things pending.
Good cooperation is identified among the work procedures and among the employees of
the bank, which results in effective service. The employees of the bank can provide
effective and efficient services to the customers because of computer facility.
The number of human resources in the Computer section is really insufficient to give
services to huge number of customers.
The investment of the branch is too low in comparison to the total deposits of the
branch.
The Bank has given less emphasis on long-term financing.
The bank has its training institution which arrange useful and distinctive training
program time to time for the employees.
The Bank has strong correspondent relationship with other commercial banks & the
Bank is a member of SWIFT service community.
In case of clearing, postings are made through computer database program and
currently the Bank (SJIBL) uses PC Bank 2000 database program, which is encountered
by several problems and limitations.
Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited has also shortage of efficient management information
system.
Lack of promotional activities.
Lack of rural development program.
The liquidity level of both the Banks (SJIBL & EXIM Bank Limited) is always below
the standard limit, though the Banks liquidity level is increasing year to year, which is
a good sign for the Banks.
120
Both the Banks are currently operating with moderate operating efficiency and the
EXIM Bank has maintained all the issues, reflecting operating efficiency at a tolerable
level except its operating costs and the operating cost position of the EXIM Bank is
rising year to year. On the other hand, the Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited has
successfully maintained all the issues, reflecting operating efficiency at a tolerable level
and the Bank (SJIBL) is much more efficient than the EXIM Bank.
Both the Banks (SJIBL & EXIM Bank Limited) are currently operating with moderate
profitability and the profitability of the Shahjalal Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) is higher
than the profitability of the EXIM Bank.
Both the Banks capital structure includes both the debt and equity capital and Both the
Banks have financed most of its total assets (above 95%) with debt and a little portion
with shareholders invested capital. But now it SJIBL turn their investment in equity
basis.
The EXIM Banks market value (value of the Bank to the investors) is fluctuating year
to year but from the year 2006 it is increasing, while the market value of the Shahjalal
Islami Bank Limited (SJIBL) is increasing day by day.
A banker cant sleep well with bad debts in his business. Shahjalal Islami Bank limited is a
leading Private Islami bank in Bangladesh with superior customer bases that are loyal, faithful,
worthy towards the bank. The service provided by the young energetic officials of the Shahjalal
Islami Bank Limited is very satisfactory. As an Islamil bank SJIBL has to follow the rules of
Bangladesh bank despite the fact that these rules sometime restrict the foreign business to some
extent. During my internship in this branch I have found its Investment department to be very
efficient; therefore this department plays a major role in the overall profitability of the branch and
to the Bank as a whole.
Shahjalal Islami Bank Ltd is one of the most potential Islami banks in the Islami banking sector.
It has a large portfolio with huge assets to meet up its liabilities and the management of this bank
is equipped with the expert bankers and managers in all level of management. So it is not an easy
job to find out the drawbacks of this branch as a new branch. But the branch needs more
121
employees for its substantial growth. I would rather feel like producing my personal opinion
about the ongoing practices in Mirpur Branch.
The Bank's drive towards market leadership as well as quality in choosing business will continue
in the coming years although competition is intensified with the opening of more financial
institutions. The Bank is optimistic that the volume of business will increase in future through
pragmatic and market friendly policies; The Bank shall continue to explore new fields of
investment and take steps to open new Branches for Banking. We shall endeavor to adopt
customer-oriented policies and introduce new techniques that will help to earn profit and increase
greater confidence of the existing/ prospective customers.
In future, this internship experiences & the report will help me in investment analysis & to choose
the right investment portfolio. Actually both the professional & educational life will be beneficial
with the experience.
