Muslim Commercial Bank (MCB) unfolds 62 years of growth. MCB is not an overnight success

story. MCB Ltd formerly known as Muslim Commercial Bank Limited was incorporated by the

Adamjee Group on July 9, 1947, under the Indian Companies Act, VII of 1913 as a limited

company. The bank was established with a view to provide banking facilities to the business

community of the South Asia. The bank started corporate life in Calcutta on July 9, 1947. After

the partition of the Indo-Pak Subcontinent, the bank moved to Dhaka from where it commenced

business in August 1948. In 1956, the Bank transferred its registered office to Karachi, where

the Head Office is presently located. Thus, the bank inherits a 62-years legacy of trust in its

customers and the citizens of Pakistan.

The bank was nationalized in 1974 during the government of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. This was the

first bank to privatize in 1991 and the bank was purchased by a consortium of distinguished

Pakistani corporate groups led by Nishat Group. As of June 2008, the Nishat Group owns a

majority stake in the bank. Founded in 1948, Nishat Group is one of the leading and most

diversified business groups in Pakistan. The group has strong presence in the most important

business sectors of the country such as banking, textile, cement and insurance.

Mian Mohammad Mansha is the Chairman of the group (and also MCB) and has played

instrumental role in its success. In recognition of Mr. Manshas contribution, the Government of

Pakistan has conferred him with "Sitara-e-Imtiaz", one of the most prestigious civil awards of the

country.

During the last fifteen years, the Bank has concentrated on growth through improving service

quality, investment in technology and people, utilizing its extensive branch network, developing

a large and stable deposit base and managing its loan book through improved risk management

processes.

MCB is Pakistans fourth largest bank by assets having an asset base of PKR 445 billion at

December 31, 2008 on a consolidated basis and the largest bank by market capitalization. The

affluent retail customer segment and 3 are Islamic banking branches, and has over 90 ATMs. At

Management of Deposit Schemes

Deposits shall be managed under the Mudaraba arrangement, under which customer is the Rabb-

ul-Maal and bank is the Mudarib. Bank, being the Mudarib, shall be responsible for placing the

funds in secured as-well-as profitable Islamic ventures on the basis of Ijarah, Murabaha,

Mudaraba, etc and shall share a portion of profits as a compensation for its efforts. The profit

sharing ratio shall be announced at the beginning of month. Rabb-ul-Maal, on the other hand,

shall earn the net profit after all deductions, and this total earning of the Rabb-ul-Maal shall be

shared by the individual depositors on the basis of weightages, which shall be announced at the

beginning of the month. In the event of loss, Mudarib would lose its profit share which otherwise

would have been paid to it in the cases of profit, and Rabb-ul-Maal shall bear the net loss.

How is the Return Halal

Care would be taken in ensuring that both the arrangements of accepting deposits from

customers, and investing that amount in Islamic Modes of Financing, are done in a strictly

Shariah-compliant manner. On the basis of approval from reputed Shariah scholars, who belong

to internationally renowned university for Islamic education, products have been designed to not

only suit the needs of depositors/ borrowers but also remain strictly in compliance with Islamic

Shariah. Moreover, our Shariah Advisor, Dr. Maulana Muhammad Zubair Usmani would also

monitor our transactions on a daily basis.

Elements of Riba have been eliminated completely from the contracts so that income earned

through investments in assets is completely halal and is shared by the depositors in a Shariah-

compliant manner. A transparent system of weight ages is used to calculate the profit rates on the

basis of which profits are disbursed to each customer. These weight ages are announced by the

bank at the beginning of each month/ term and posted on the Notice Boards of Islamic Banking

Branch as well as on our website.

ACCOUNT OPENING DEPARTMENT

y For the duration of my internship in MCB, I have learned and observed many

things about opening an account. Basically, I think that opening an account is to

establish a contractual relationship between banker and client. By opening an

account at a bank of a person becomes a "client" of a bank. In addition, I will

express the basic requirements and steps for opening account.

y Before opening an account at MCB I observed that the following points should be

considered in this regard.

y Another account holder of the bank should properly present the new client.

y The account holder must sign the account opening form in the presence of the

representative of the bank and the signature is properly verified.y A copy of the ID card is required by the Bank.

y Against the submission of the form of Bank prescribed application duly presented

in the manner prescribed and on the provision of these documents may be

necessary and account can be opened. The Bank reserves to itself the right to

refuse to open an account without giving any reason.

y Each account is assigned a separate number must be quoted in all

correspondence with the relationship bank account.

y Minimum to open and ongoing maintenance of various types of accounts is as

follows: Rs

y Savings of 500

y Current 500

y Term deposit 1000

Recommendations

Although the MCB Ltd. is working very efficiently and effectively since its privatization in

1991. It becomes one of the leading private banks in the Pakistan. It purchases recently the

shares of The Royal Bank of Scotland in Pakistan. It is contributing a lot in the economy of

Pakistan. But there still something on which the management of the MCB should work on. The

following should be needed to improve:

The employees of the bank feel the boredom of doing same tasks. So the job rotation

policy should be adopted frequently to create interesting working conditions.

The management of the bank must send its employees for different courses in the

major cities of Pakistan or even abroad. This will contribute in the employeedevelopment and also in the organizational development.

The management should send the employees on the training. This will help the

employee to understand his work and perform his duties in an efficient way.

The incentives to the employees should and must increase on the regular basis. So it

will increase the employee retention with the bank and also increase the employee

involvement.

The management of the bank should design the proper internship program for the

graduate students and also for the post graduates in way that they can learn a lot

during their internship.

With that the internship program should be in a way that the deserving students can

get the chance for the internship.

Recently the management is closing its non profitable branches frequently. So the

management should try to minimize the problem and maximize the profit but should

not close the branches. Because this will also cause the unemployment.

The management should take care the shareholders of the bank and always keep an

eye to maximize the wealth of the shareholders.

Recently the management of the bank is not working on the policy to attract the

foreign business. The management should also work on to expand its business

internationally.
