CHAPTER 01: BODY OF THE REPORT

1995. Headquartered in the heart of Dhaka's bustling financial hub Motijheel, the Bank's

Performance evaluation gives a fair image of the strength of the monetary establishments. Banks
in many nations resemble private organizations that must pull in capital from people in general to
finance their activities. On the off chance that benefits are lacking or in the event that the danger
is inordinate, they will have more noteworthy trouble in acquiring capital, and their financing
costs will develop, dissolving benefit. Bank investors, contributors, and bank analysts addressing
the administrative local area are completely keen on the nature of bank execution. The purpose for
that is a monetary organization like bank manages public cash which requires appropriate
observation from power and the overall population too. In this examination, we have done
execution assessment of Prime Bank Limited from the year 2016 to 2020. Prime Bank is the
generally perceived and grounded brand in Bangladesh. Consistently the bank distributes its
monetary report where it unveils all the vital data and dependent on that data, we have done an
extensive investigation in regards to the bank's solidarity, size, development, productivity, quality.

CHAPTER 02: PERFORMANCE EVALUATION CRITERIA
To hold and draw in new clients to a specific bank, the bank the board needs to have reasonable
operational effectiveness and should altogether examine the extensions for an additional turn of
events. PRIME Bank Limited is a business bank in the private area. The portions of the Bank have
recorded with both Dhaka Stock Exchange Ltd. also, Chittagong Stock Exchange Ltd. The name
'Prime Ban' is gotten from the understanding and since a long time ago sustained sensations of the
advertisers to contact individuals of varying backgrounds and progress together towards
flourishing in a feeling of unity. We have assessed the exhibition assessment of Prime Bank
Limited for the year 2016 to 2020 has been done dependent on the accompanying five indicators
The strength and soundness of a bank are one of the major criteria that reflects the financial ability
of that bank to captivate different shocks and survive when there is an economic recession.
Customer can easily put their money or confidence in a financially sound bank than any other
banks under that. Financial Soundness and strength indicators are considered and distributed to be
used in the macro-prudential analysis, which includes assessment and control over strengths and
vulnerabilities of financial systems to increase financial soundness as well as reduce the probability
of financial system bankruptcy. strength and soundness of banks can be assessed by the five
indicators described below:
Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) is a ratio of banks Capital to Risk Weighted Assets. It is a ratio
that regulators in the banking system use to watch bank's health, specifically bank's capital to its
risk. The calculation is given below:
Capital to Risk Weighted Assets = [Total Eligible Capital ÷ Risk Weighted Assets] ×100
Page 10 of 46
Capital Adequacy Ratio
Total eligible Risk Weighted Capital to Risk Weighted Assets (in
Year capital (in crore) Assets (in crore) crore)
2016 3,163.21 25,400.15 12.45%
S 2017 3,225.09 23,021.14 14.01%
O 2018 3,825.90 22,451.65 17.04%
L 2019 4,028.92 23,129.97 17.42%
O 2020 4,081.24 23,621.98 17.28%
Page 11 of 46
By the calculation, we can clear that the Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) solo is increasing from
FY2016 till FY2019 from 12.45% to 17.42%. We know a higher percentage indicates better
performance. But in 2020 this percentage is a bit lower. It can happen because of COVID 19
pandemic

Higher NPL is a recognized indicator of lack of strength and soundness. The complete title of the
ratio should be NPL net of provisions to total equity. Like CAR, the ratio indicates a bank’s
capacity to absorb credit risk. Lower ratio indicates better performance. The indicator is computed
as:
NPL to Equity Ratio = [(Classified Loan – Provision against Classified Loan) ÷Total
Equity] ×100

To banks, liquidity is the ability to meet obligations when they become due without incurring
unacceptable losses. Here the Liquid Assets are the sum of Cash, Balance with other banks and
Financial Institutions, Money at call and Short Notice and Investment. Short-term Liabilities are
the sum of Borrowed Liabilities and Total Deposits less Fixed Deposits. The ratio measures a
bank’s ability to meet its short-term obligations with its most liquid assets. Higher ratio indicates
better performance. The indicator is computed as:
Liquid Assets to ST Liabilities = [Liquid Asset ÷ Short Term Liabilities] ×100

Here we can see the huge drop of Liquid Assets to ST Liabilities from 2016 to 2017 near 30%.
Then it decreasing by passing years. So, analyzing this the performance of this bank is not very
well.
Banks should mainly rely on deposit liabilities as a source of fund to create their assets. Higher
borrowing liabilities indicate greater dependency on money market and lack of strength and
soundness required to attract adequate deposits. The indicator shows the proportion of borrowing
liability of the total liabilities of a bank. Lower ratio indicates better performance. The indicator is
computed as:
Borrowing Liability to Total Liability = [Borrowed Liability ÷Total Liability] × 100

PEC 1- Indicator 5: Advance Deposit Ratio:
Banks should maintain a balance between the volume of advances and deposit. Advance deposit
ratio is used to measure the degree of balance between advance and deposit. High value of this
ratio may increase bank income but may increase liquidity risk and vice-versa.
Advance Deposit Ratio = [Total Advances ÷ Total Deposit] ×100

Within these 5 years, the timespan bank's advance deposit ratio was high in 2018 that is 12.07%.
and a high ratio indicates high income. So, in 2018 their income was high. The in 2017 their income
was a little less than in 2018. But in today’s scenario, the ratio is 9.94%. which is not higher than
2018. So, the bank needs to improve in this sector as well. As higher the ratio higher the income
Bank size influences the benefits of banks and guarantees more prominent monetary access.
Generally, huge banks have a more noteworthy chance to limit chances and may appreciate
economies of scale. Development is perceived as one of the great pointers of the presentation of
any establishment. Under this head, four markers identified with size and four-pointers identified

Asset Quality of Prime Bank Ltd. Assets are the sources of earning for any organization. If the
quality of assets deteriorates, it adversely affects the earning potentials which eventually reduce
the value of the firm. The largest category of earning assets of a bank is loans and advances. So,
the consideration of the quality of loans is necessary while performing the ranking. Four indicators
related to asset qualities are considered to rank performances of banks.
Considering the earning assets of Prime Bank Ltd., the size of Total Loan & Advance has an up
and down over the year starting from 2016 to 2020.
But what matters most is the quality of these assets and to measure the quality of loan or earning
assets the following four indicators give an idea whether the Bank is actually making a good move
or not. The 1st indicator gives a red signal that the bank is not able to control its NPL efficiently
that reflects in the 2nd indicator as well. In the 3rd indicator the concentration of large loan over
the total loan of Prime Bank Ltd. shows a downfall in the recent year though it had fluctuating
trend in the previous years. Finally, the credit concentration based on division gives a view
regarding the diversification of its loan portfolio.
Growth in gross NPL indicates the change in the performance of a bank in terms of asset quality.
So, if the growth rate of gross NPL ratio of bank is lower, then the performance of bank will be
better in terms of asset quality.

large loan if the outstanding loan amount is more than 10% of its capital. Lower the Large Loan
to Total Loans and Advances, better the performance. The indicator is computed as:
Credit Concentration = [Total Large Loan ÷ Total Loan and Advances] ×100

A good credit portfolio is one that is well diversified in terms of allocation of advances or credit.
High credit concentration increases credit portfolio risk and vice versa. High concentration of bank
advances to a particular division or region may endanger a bank if that division or region is affected
by natural calamity or other external event.

infrastructure development in Dhaka Division and High credit concentration increases credit
portfolio risk in that division.
Inclusive banking is concerned with sustainable or ethical banking and is part of a larger societal
movement toward more social responsibility. This movement should include ethical investment
and distribution of resources and corporate social responsibility. In Bangladesh, inclusive
operation of Prime Bank Ltd should be connected with the distribution of banks resources to rural
economy, the agricultural sector, and micro and small enterprise sector. Online banking operation
is another sustainable way of offering quality banking services. It is said that online banking is the
starting point of green or environmental banking. Under this head, six indicators related to
inclusive and online banking are considered to rank performances of PBL.

CHAPTER 3: FINDINGS
Through computing the Performance Evaluation of PBL we've discovered that the general exhibition. It
isn't adequate in monetary assessment. Numerous reasonable issues have been acquired alongside the
hypothetical monetary examination through finishing this research paper. Presently we get a few
discoveries of the monetary exhibition-
▪ In capital adequacy ratio, this ratio is very high. So, lack of performance showing here
▪ In NPL to Equity ratio, there is too high in 2016 by 210.12%, but it decreasing in 2020. But, it is
too much. Need to be minimize
▪ Liquidity Asset to short term liability ratio is in decreasing trend, so the bank overall performance
is not good
▪ Borrowing liability to total liability is increasing
Page 43 of 46
So, we can see, in PEC 1, PBL overall performance is not satisfactory.
This performance indicators is in satisfactory. But, due to covid 19, they could not able continue with that
much growth compare to previous year
In Asset Quality,

At 2008, Prime Bank is one of the top rated bank in Bangladesh. But due to some internal issue
and some big scandals (Bismillah Group) regarding Loan, there brand value is decreasing.
Management has changes several times, no result has shown as per there performance. So, 2013-
2014 they decided move centralized, so that they can made their decision from their top level. So.
There are some recommendations are the following-
▪ To achieve the goal, a bank must establish and adhere to adequate policies, practices and
procedures for evaluating the quality of asset and the adequacy of loan provision and
reserve
