INTRODUCTION

Page 16 of 168
1.1 Introduction

The term “Islamic banking” refers to a system of banking or banking activity that is
consistent with Islamic law (Shariah) principles and guided by Islamic economics. In
particular, Islamic law prohibits usury, the collection and payment of interest, also commonly
called riba in Islamic discourse. In addition, Islamic law prohibits investing in businesses that
are considered unlawful, or haraam (such as businesses that sell alcohol or pork, or
businesses that produce media such as gossip columns or pornography, which are contrary to
Islamic values).

Islamic banking has the same purpose as conventional banking: to make money for the
banking institute by lending out capital. But that is not the sole purpose either. The basic
principle of Islamic banking is based on risk-sharing which is a component of trade rather
than risk-transfer which is seen in conventional banking. Islamic banking introduces concepts
such as profit sharing (Mudharabah), safekeeping (Wadiah), joint venture (Musharakah),
cost plus (Murabahah), and leasing (Ijar).

In an Islamic mortgage transaction, instead of lending the buyer money to purchase the item,
a bank might buy the item itself from the seller, and re-sell it to the buyer at a profit, while
allowing the buyer to pay the bank in installments. The goods or land is registered to the
name of the buyer from the start of the transaction. This arrangement is called Murabahah.

An innovative approach applied by some banks for home loans, called Musharaka al-
Mutanaqisa, allows for a floating rate in the form of rental. The bank and borrower form a
partnership entity, both providing capital at an agreed percentage to purchase the property.
The partnership entity then rents out the property to the borrower and charges rent. The bank
and the borrower will then share the proceeds from this rent based on the current equity share
of the partnership.

1.2 Background of the Report:

A develop banking sector plays a vital role for financial stability of a country. In the BBA
program, the internship is one of the vital parts, which has to be done by every student .the
internship program provides an opportunity for the students to minimize the gap between
theoretical and practical knowledge and will help in practical life. I got this great opportunity
to perform my internship program in the Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd. I have completed
internship program based on theoretical and practical knowledge.

Through this report an individual can expect to have a good knowledge about the service
quality between the Supporting Desk Officers and Front Desk Officers (CRO). I have tried
my level best to put more emphasis on the SME loan and the service quality level between
the Front Desk Officers and the Supporting Desk Officers since it was the topic of my
internship program. This report is to be used only for the academic purpose. I have collected
all the necessary and relevant data from various primary, secondary and tertiary sources.
After three months long hard labor, it has become possible for me to make the report
comprehensive and factual. The data is truly and strictly confidential and no one can use its
components in full or partial. I would like to give thanks to everyone who has helped and
encouraged me in the process of preparing this report.

1.3 Origin of the report

The BBA internship program is a mandatory requirement for the students who are graduating
from the BBA programme of Southeast University, Department of Business Administration.
In the internship program, I was attached to a host organization named ' Al-Arafah Islami
Bank Ltd ' Khilkhet branch for 12 weeks. During this period I learned how the host
organization works with the help of the internal supervisor. As a result I have decided to
make a report on "The Investment and Comprehensive Financial Performance Analysis

1.6 Methodology of the study

I have got all the relevant information from my working experience with AIBL, their Annual

Official documents
Credit manual and foreign exchange manual of the bank.

1.7 SAMPLING:

1.7.1 POPULATION:

has been selected mainly because we are conducting the survey on the perception about the
matter amongst the branch customer and employees.

Page 21 of 168
1.7.2 THE SAMPLE UNITS:
The sampling unit in case of this research consists of the branch customer and employees

1.7.3 THE SAMPLING FRAME:


The sampling frame usually contains a list of elements from which the sample is drawn. The
survey has been conducted at different levels of customers coming to the branch such as
Priority customer, Excel Customer, Corporate customer And so on. And also the different
levels of employees in the branch.

1.7.4 THE SAMPLING DESIGN:


The sample design used in this case is random sampling method. When taking the random
sampling into consideration there is always a chance that error might occur. This happens
when there is a difference in the sampling that is done during the course of the survey.

deal of theory is included in this report. It will be also benefited for the people who are
interested to know about AIBL.

Page 22 of 168
1.9 Limitations of the study
The present study was not out of limitations. But as an internee it was a great opportunity for
me to know the banking activities in Bangladesh especially of AL-ARAFAH-ISLAMI Bank.
Some constraints are appended bellow:

The main limitation for conducting this report is time limitation and resources. Three months
is not enough to understand all the activities of a bank and how they handle their clients. Lack
of experience has also acted a constraint for the exploration of the topic.

Following are the Limitations:

Limitation of time was one of the most important factors to collect data. A longer time
period would have ensured a much better result for the study findings.
Every organization has its own secrecy that is not revealed to others. While collecting
data i.e. interviewing the credit officials they did not discuss much information for the
sake of confidentiality of the Bank.
Due to lack of experience, there is a chance of having some mistake in the report
though best effort has been applied to avoid any kind of mistake.
Lack of depth of knowledge, lack of experience in collecting information and
analytical ability for writing such report.
There were some misunderstanding between me and the bank officials while
searching the some required information.

The main constraint of the study is inadequate access to information.


Due to time limitations many of the aspects could not be discussed in the report.
The employees did not disclose much information for the sake of the confidentiality
of the organization.
Since the bank personals were very busy, they could provide me very little time.
The clients were too busy to provide me much time for interview.
Though I have prepared many reports before, I had no experience of internship. So
inexperience is one of the main constraints of the study.
Lack of social awareness about the modern and competitive banking system.
Lack of cooperation with others

Investment means transaction between two parties in which one (the creditor or lender)
supplies money, goods, services or securities in return for a promised future payment by the
other (the debtor or borrower). Such transaction normally includes the payment of interest to
the lender but AL-Arafah Islami Bank Limited always avoids interest and emphasizes on
profit-based business. Investment may be extended by the public or private institutions to

of paramount importance as the greatest share of total revenue of the band is generated from

management of its investment portfolio. The failure of a commercial bank is usually
associated with the problem in investment portfolio and is less often the result of shrinkage in

Page 47 of 168
3.4 Mode of Investment:

Page 48 of 168
3.5 Trading modes (Bai-Mechanism)

3.5.1 Bai-Murabaha
Bai-Murabaha may be defined as Contractual buying and selling at a mark-up profit. In this
case, the client requests the Bank to purchase certain goods for him. The Bank purchases the
goods as per specification and requirement of the client. The client receives the goods on
payment of the price which includes mark-up profit as per contract. Under this mode of
investment the purchase/ cost price and profit are to be disclosed separately.

3.5.2 Bai  Muajjal

Bai-Muajjal is a contract between a buyer and a seller under which the seller sells certain
specific goods (permissible under Shariah and Law of the Country), to the buyer at an agreed
fixed price payable at a certain fixed future date in lump sum or within a fixed period by
fixed installments. The seller may also sell the goods purchased by him as per order and
specification of the buyer.

In Bank's perspective, Bai-Muajjal is treated as a contract between the Bank and the Client
under which the bank sells to the Client certain specified goods, purchased as per order and
specification of the Client at an agreed price payable within a fixed future date in lump sum
or by fixed installment.

3.5.3 Bai- Salam

Bai- Salam means advance purchase. It is a mode of business under which the buyer pays the
price of the goods in advance on the condition that the goods would be supplied / delivered at
a particular future time. The seller supplies the goods within the fixed time.

Page 49 of 168
3.5.4 Bai-Istishna

A contract executed between a buyer and a seller under which the seller pledges to
manufacture and supply certain goods according to specification of the buyer is called Istisna.
An Istisna agreement is executed when a manufacturer or a factory owner accepts a proposal
placed to him by a person or an Institution to produce/manufacture certain goods for the latter
at a certain negotiated price.

Here, the person giving the order is called Mustasni, the receiver of the order is called Sani
and the goods manufactured as per order is called Masnu.

An order placed for manufacturing or producing those goods which under prevailing customs
and practice are produced or manufactured will be treated as Istisna contract.

3.6 Leasing mode (Ijarah mechanism)

3.6.1 Ijarah Muntahia Bittamleak (Hire Purchase)

Under this mode, the bank purchases vehicles, machineries and instruments, building,
apartment etc. and allowed clients to use those on payment of fixed rents in installments with
the ultimate objective to sell the asset to the client at the end of the rental period . The client
acquires the ownership/ title of the assets/ properties subject to full payment/ adjustment of
all the installments.

3.6.2 Hire Purchase Under shirkatul Melk

Definition

Hire purchase under shirkatul Melk is a special type of contract which has been developed
through practice. Actually, it is a synthesis of three contracts: Shirkat, Ijarah and sale. Shirkat
means partnership. Shirkatul Melk means share an ownership. When two or more persons
supply equity, purchase an asset, own the same jointly, and share the benefit as per agreement

Page 50 of 168
and bear the loss in proportion to their respective equity, the contract is called Shirkatul
contract.

Stages of Hire Purchase under Shirkatul Melk

Thus Hire Purchase under Shirkatul Melk Agreement has got three stages:

Purchase under joint ownership.


Hire and
Sale and /or transfer of ownership to the other partner Hirer.

Hire Purchase under Shirkatul Melk through gradually transfer (sale) of legal
title/ownership of the hired asset/property

Under this type certain .asset / property' is purchased with equal or unequal equity
participation and owned jointly by the parties -the Bank and the Client. The Bank's share /
portion of the asset is hired out to tile Client partner against fixed rent/rentals per unit of time
for a fixed period with a promise that the Hire Bank will sell or transfer the ownership of its
portion to the Client Hirer gradually part by part in proportion to the consideration paid. So
that the Hire's portion of the asset on payment of the total price at the end of the hire period.

Under this system the total price of the hired property / asset should be determined and
divided over the period of hire contract (per unit of time) so that the Hirer in addition to the
payment of fixed rent /rentals may pay gradually the proportionate consideration of the total
price of the hired property or asset to acquire proportionate ownership of the same part by,
part and become full owner of the hired asset at the end of the hire period.

It should be noted that there should be a separate sale contract for payment / acquisition of
each share (per unit of time as per hire deal) / part of asset sold to the Hirer and the amount of
rent should be decreased proportionately with decrease of Hire's ownership and increase of
Hirer's ownership on the property/asset.

If, for any reason, the hire contract is revoked prior to the payment I transfer of full title to the
Hirer, the Hirer will share that part of the title to the hired property which has been

Page 51 of 168
transferred to him against payment made by him and the remaining part will be shared by the
Hire Bank. If any loss arises to the Bank after the sale of Bank's share to the property / asset
that shall be recouped from the Client / Client's security. In our Bank, we shall be following
this type of Sale Contract in Hire Purchase under Shirkalul Melk.

3.7 Share Mechanism

3.7.1 Mudaraba

Definition
It is a from of partnership where one party provides the fund while the other provide the
expertise, labor and the letter referred to at the Mudarib any profits accrued are shared
between the two parties on a pre –agreed basis, while capital loss in exclusively born by the
partner providing the capital.

Important Features:

experience.
The client maintains administration and management.
Profit is divided as per agreement.

3.7.2 Musharaka

The term Shirkat and Musharakah have been derived from Arabic words “Shairkah” and
“Sharika.” The word shirkah means a partnership between more than one partner. Thus the

3.12 Investment Principles:


The Principle of lending is a collection of certain accepted time tested standards, which
ensure the proper use of loan fund in a profitable way and its timely recovery. Different
authors describe different principles for sound lending.
1. Safety
Page 59 of 168
2. Security
3. Liquidity
4. Adequate yield
5. Diversity

Safety:
Safely should get the prior importance in the time of sanctioning the loan. At the time of
maturity the borrower may not will or may unable to pay the loan amount. Therefore, in the
time of sanctioning the loan adequate securities should be taken from the borrowers to
recover the loan. Banker should not sacrifice safety for profitability. AL-ARAFH-ISLAMI
Bank Ltd. exercises the lending function only when it is safe and that the risk factor is
adequately mitigated and covered. Safety depends upon:
The security offered by the borrower: and
The repaying capacity and willingness of the debtor to repay the loan with interest.
Liquidity:
Banker should consider the liquidity of the loan in time of sanctioning it. Liquidity' is
necessary to meet the consumer need.
Security:
Banker should be careful in the selection of security to maintain the safety of the loan.
Banker should properly evaluate the proper value of the security. If the estimated value is less
than or equal to loan amount, the loan should be given against such securities. The more the
cash near item the good the security. In the time of valuing the security, the Banker should be
more conservative.

Adequate Yield:
As a commercial origination, Banker should consider the profitability. So banker should
consider the interest rate when go for lending. Always Banker should fix such an interest rate
for its lending which should be higher than its savings deposits interest rate. To ensure this
profitability Banker should consider the prospect of the project.
Diversity:
Banker should minimize the portfolio risk by putting its fund in the different fields. If Bank
put its entire loan able fund in one sector it \\ill increase the risk. Banker should distribute its
Page 60 of 168
loan able fund in different sectors. So if it faces any problem in any sector it can be covered
by the profit of another sector

CHAPTER-4

PERFORMANCE
ANALYSIS

Page 73 of 168
4.1 Theoretical Review:

4.2 Ratio Analysis

Ratio Analysis is a form of Financial Statement Analysis that is used to obtain a quick
indication of a firm's financial performance in several key areas. The ratios are categorized as
Short-term Solvency Ratios, Debt Management Ratios, Asset Management Ratios,
Profitability Ratios, and Market Value Ratios.

Ratio Analysis as a tool possesses several important features. The data, which are provided
by financial statements, are readily available. The computation of ratios facilitates the
comparison of firms which differ in size. Ratios can be used to compare a firm's financial
performance with industry averages. In addition, ratios can be used in a form of trend
analysis to identify areas where performance has improved or deteriorated over time.

Because Ratio Analysis is based upon accounting information, its effectiveness is limited by
the distortions which arise in financial statements due to such things as Historical Cost
Accounting and inflation. Therefore, Ratio Analysis should only be used as a first step in
financial analysis, to obtain a quick indication of a firm's performance and to identify areas
which need to be investigated further.

Short-term Solvency or Liquidity Ratios

Short-term Solvency Ratios attempt to measure the ability of a firm to meet its short-term
financial obligations. In other words, these ratios seek to determine the ability of a firm to
avoid financial distress in the short-run. The two most important Short-term Solvency Ratios
are the Current Ratio and the Quick Ratio.

Page 74 of 168
Loan-To-Deposit Ratio - LTD'

A commonly used statistic for assessing a bank's liquidity by dividing the banks total loans
by its total deposits. This number, also known as the LTD ratio, is expressed as a percentage.
If the ratio is too high, it means that banks might not have enough liquidity to cover any
unforeseen fund requirements; if the ratio is too low, banks may not be earning as much as
they could be.

Profitability Ratio

Profitability ratios show a company's overall efficiency and performance. We can divide
profitability ratios into two types: margins and returns. Ratios that show margins represent
the firm's ability to translate sales dollars into profits at various stages of measurement.
Ratios that show returns represent the firm's ability to measure the overall efficiency of the
firm in generating returns for its shareholders.

Return on Assets

The Return on Assets ratio is an important profitability ratio because it measures the
efficiency with which the company is managing its investment in assets and using them to
generate profit. It measures the amount of profit earned relative to the firm's level of
investment in total assets. The return on assets ratio is related to the asset management
category of financial ratios.

The calculation for the return on assets ratio is: Net Income/Total Assets = _____%. Net
Income is taken from the income statement and total assets is taken from the balance sheet.
The higher the percentage, the better, because that means the company is doing a good job
using its assets to generate sales.

Return on Equity

The Return on Equity ratio is perhaps the most important of all the financial ratios to
investors in the company. It measures the return on the money the investors have put into the
company. This is the ratio potential investors look at when deciding whether or not to invest
in the company. The calculation is: Net Income/Stockholder's Equity = _____%. Net

Page 75 of 168
income comes from the income statement and stockholder's equity comes from the balance
sheet. In general, the higher the percentage, the better, with some exceptions, as it shows that
the company is doing a good job using the investors' money.

Return on Deposit (ROD)

The return on debt (ROD) can be expressed as the quantification of a company’s performance
or net income as allied to the amount of debt issued by the company. Putting it other way, the
return on debt refers to the amount of profit generated for every dollar held by a company in
debt. As stated by Investopedia, the return on debt is an intricate financial modeling skill
rather than being a commonly used financial reporting factor. Moreover, companies carrying
a significant amount of debt relating to capital and/or assets are more prone to economic
downturns during a decline in earnings and credit measures might be tightened.

Leverage Ratio /Capital Structure Ratio

A mix of a company's long-term debt, specific short-term debt, common equity and preferred
equity. The capital structure is how a firm finances its overall operations and growth by using
different sources of funds.
Debt comes in the form of bond issues or long-term notes payable, while equity is classified
as common stock, preferred stock or retained earnings. Short-term debt such as working
capital requirements is also considered to be part of the capital structure.

Equity-to-Assets Ratio

The equity-to-assets ratio is one of many financial ratios used to determine the financial
health and long-term profitability of a corporation. It is often used by investors to determine
whether the corporation's shares are a safe investment. Though important, the equity-to-assets
ratio should be used only with other financial ratios to determine a corporation's overall
financial health.

Efficiency Ratio

Page 76 of 168
In banking, a ratio of expenses to revenue. For example, if a bank spends $10 million and
makes $15 million in a given month, its efficiency ratio is .67. Banks desire a lower
efficiency ratio because this means that the bank is making considerably more than it is
spending and is therefore on sound fiscal footing. One way to conceptualize the efficiency
ratio is to say it is the measure of what a bank must spend in order to make one dollar. In the
above example, the bank must spend 67 cents.

Ratios that are typically used to analyze how well a company uses its assets and liabilities
internally. Efficiency Ratios can calculate the turnover of receivables, the repayment of
liabilities, the quantity and usage of equity and the general use of inventory and machinery.

Operational Efficiency

A market condition that exists when participants can execute transactions and receive
services at a price that equates fairly to the actual costs required to provide them. An
Operationally-efficient market allows investors to make transactions that move the market
further toward the overall goal of prudent capital allocation, without being chiseled down by
excessive frictional costs, which would reduce the risk/reward profile of the transaction.

Asset utilization ratio

The asset utilization ratio measures management's ability to make the best use of its assets to
generate revenue. This is particularly meaningful in a manufacturing, where fewer capital
assets are used to produce products.
The asset utilization ratio is calculated by dividing total sales by the net book value of the
capital assets. Once calculated, this ratio can then be compared to benchmark industry
standard ratios, or it can be compared to ratios of other comparable businesses.

Total Expenses to Total Assets

Total Expenses to Total Assets is the ratio between total Expense and total assets. It
provides information regarding total costs involved annually for investment funds. The costs
include expenses like legal fees, management fees, and other operational expenses. Total
Expense Ratio is also called as Expense Ratio.

Total expense ratio = Total expense / Total assets

Page 77 of 168
The Expense helps in measuring the fund’s assets which are sold or used to manage the
expenses relating to the fund. The output is expressed as a percentage and is calculated on a
yearly or annual basis.

Credit Risk Ratio

The risk of loss of principal or loss of a financial reward stemming from a borrower's failure
to repay a loan or otherwise meet a contractual obligation. Credit risk arises whenever a
borrower is expecting to use future cash flows to pay a current debt. Investors are
compensated for assuming credit risk by way of interest payments from the borrower or
issuer of a debt obligation.

Credit risk is closely tied to the potential return of an investment, the most notable being that
the yields on bonds correlate strongly to their perceived credit risk.

01. Loan or Investment to Deposit Ratio

Year 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008


Investment to Deposit Ratio 89.43% 93.47% 99.46% 98.12% 97.11%

Analysis:

In this ratio, I can analysis that the ratio of investment to deposit has increased in 2010 which
compare in more than from 2008 to 2012. On 2012, investment to deposit Ratio is a lower
than another year.

Exim Bank 107.30% 99.51% 104.15% 95.89% 98.17%

Analysis:

Bank, Social Islami Bank, First Security Islami Bank and Exim bank. So that on 2009
Shahjalal Islami Bank is higher than another year. On 2010, Social Islami Bank is the biggest
rate than another year. First Security Islami Bank compares their investment to deposit ratio
is high 2008 than another year. And the Exim Bank is increasing from 2008 to 2012. So that

CHAPTER-7

FINDING,
RECOMMENDATION
AND
CONCLUSION

Page 146 of 168


7.1 Summary of Findings:

The three (03) months internship program has been going to be finished through writing a
report. During the time of internship I have tried with my best to acquire theoretical and
practical knowledge Banking business and the Management of Credit. Being an employee of
Al- Arafah Islami bank Ltd.

Chapter-1: Introduction is illustrated in chapter one. Here I have tried to find out the history
of Islamic Banking System, background of the report, scope and the limitations of the study
by discussing the background of the program. This is just an introductory discussion.

Chapter-2: In chapter two I have tried to describe organizational overview and as well as
Khilkhet Branch. This chapter major part are History of AIBL, overview, Profile of AIBL,
vision, mission & objectives, specials features, Management, directors, Shariah board,
AIBL’s at a glance

Chapter-3: This chapter covered by investment. This Chapter for helps us taking decision
about any kind of Investment and on what basis we will take decision are discussed here.

Chapter-4: In this chapter are covered by Performance analysis among five Islami banks;
such as Al-Arafah Islami Bank, Shahjalal Islami Bank, Social Islami Bank, first Security
Islami Bank and Exim Bank. In this chapter I try to analysis among five Islami Banks.

Chapter-5: This Chapter are Research Part, where includes clients views and analysis.

Chapter-6: This Chapter includes SWOT analysis. That means Strengths, Weakness,
Opportunities, and Threats.

Chapter-7: Chapter ten is a concluding part of this report. Here problems & limitations of
AIBL for making investment are discussed and I have given recommendations for rectifying
these problems

7.2 Problems & Limitations:

Page 147 of 168


During collecting of information and data from AIBL & making report for this project the
following problems have been followed:

i) Decision making process is very lengthy and sometimes it creates problems, which is
unexpected to the customers. Most of the cases Head Office control the decision making and
it is centralized.

ii) The total number of employees in comparison with needed is very short. this is hampering
the daily operation of the Bank. For an example, Motijheel Branch General Banking is
suffering from shortage of employee.

iii) Lack of proper explanation of records and document records keeping system

7.3 Recommendations:

Decision Making: Decision making power should be decentralized effectively so that


business can promptly be enhanced.

Number of Employees: A handsome number of qualified employees & staffs should


be appointed very soon for maintaining the normal flow of work.

Records keeping system: Filing and record keeping system of the bank should be
modernized .At present operation system is partially computerized and on line
banking should be started very soon.

Effective information system: Effectiveness of credit policy largely depends on


Bank’s branch, divisional & national level information system.

Development of manpower: Effective implementation of credit policy and recovery


tare depends on higher educated, trained and skilled personnel. Bank should procure
and develop such types of employees for its credit wings.

Use of Marketing Research:


The management of Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd should regularly execute marketing
research in order to keep a regular track of satisfaction levels. A simple research whether
on the phone or face-to-face interview or consumer survey keep the management
informed about the changing attitude of the customers and thus they can minimize the gap
Page 148 of 168
between the customer expectation and the management perceptions of customer
expectations. For example, the calling center can call up their customer or when they
arrive in the bank, ask them about the services they are being provided and how they can
improve it or what measure should take regarding the quality improvement.

Complaint Management:
Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd should actively manage the complaints of various customers
and encourage customers to give feedback about the services. Through complaint
solicitation the management can collect and document complaints of customers, then use
that information to identify dissatisfied customers, correct individual problems where
possible common service failure points. And also critical incidents studies as its powerful
and vivid in eliciting customer requirements, in the service encounter level and through
this the researcher emerges with a list of desirable and undesirable employee behaviors.
This helps the management to train the employee on the facets where they need
improvement and learning.

Page 149 of 168


Offering Priority Service:
Indeed, convenience and personal service is what consumers wanted from the banks
serving small communities, as they had only few branches. Historically bankers didn‘t
know customers well, this lead to a significant drop of customer acquisition. This has
compelled the modern banks to know each customer by name, not to be left out; the
larger commercial banks today are emphasizing customer service. Many of the big banks
like HSBC, SCB are offering priority service which was absent previously. If customers
walk into the lobby of almost any major bank today, they will see a desk or window for
priority services or special bank customers. Traditional bankers had never thought about
priority services. They simply welcomed customers to come to their banks and open
accounts. Today At some banks, customers are assigned a personal banker who will
handle all of their bank transactions directly. Some preferred customers at BANK can
receive a sticker on their cheques, which allows them to avoid standing on line and
instead walk right up to a teller that handles special-service clients. This is what was
lacking previously. Establish more rural branches & Increase ATM booths: Now a day‘s
bank is pretty faithful financial institution. Even village people are realizing the
importance of bank. So Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd can spread their branches to rural
areas more intensively. It will definitely increase the market share of Al-Arafah Islami
Bank Ltd. Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd has to increase its ATM booth, especially in the
major city. Its major competitors have huge number of ATM booth. To attract more
depositors it has to do this. They must take necessary footstep to lessen the amount of
time they are requiring currently.

Efficiency of the staffs:


According to the customer perception, the major problem of the traditional service is the
consistency of the efficiency of the staffs. In order to analyze the efficiency there are a
number of factors that have been taken into consideration. Some of these factors are
responsiveness, attentiveness, helpfulness, ability to provide speedy and correct service,
respect and courtesy towards customers etc. Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd CDA Avenue
Branch has hundreds of customers daily and to be efficient with each of the customer in
an equal way is rather impossible. Again, measuring efficiency for Walk in Service is not
Page 150 of 168
an easy task. However, it was done through personal survey of complete observation of
employees throughout the internship period and by a survey of questionnaire to the
customers. An attempt was to consider the answers of the customers who visit the bank
for more than two times a month because only they would be able to determine and know
the efficiency of the employees in a better way. To be an efficient employee in the bank,
they need to be responsive to customer demand, attentive to the customer‘s query, helpful
and courteous with the customer, having ample knowledge about the customer‘s
problems, and providing service in a quick and right way the very first time. These are a
few factors analyzed to get a proper analysis of the first objective.

7.4 Conclusion
Al-Arafah Islami Bank ltd. is a unique combination of shariah & Islamic banking. Among
non government commercial banks, Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd. is a milestone for economic
development. It has been playing an important role to eradicate the unemployment problem in
Bangladesh. Over 800 employees and 5500 shareholders are getting benefit from this
organization. But most of the people in our country have misconception about Islamic
banking specially Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd. & other Islamic banks. They cannot find any
difference in its operation between conventional commercial Banks and Islamic Banks
because they have no clear idea about the activities as well as investment mechanism of
Islamic banks.
The Bank is committed to run its activities as per Islamic Shariah and thus it has different
investment(credit) modes, different repayment schedules, different disbursement procedure,
different mark up system. This system is accepted in Islamic Shariah because here money is
converted to goods. ‘Money begets money ‘is prohibited in Islamic Shariah. People are
getting more benefit from the dealings of Islamic banking because here quarterly interest is
not charged and there is no possibility of interest to be converted into principal. It cannot take
part in call money market. Mudaraba, Musharaka are another mode of investment in Islamic
Banking.

The fund of bank strongly depends on deposits and it is has a big influence through the
number and amount of deposit. Khilkhet Branch, Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd. has a better
opportunity to have a huge deposit account to increase it fund. Credit card and ATM cards

Page 151 of 168


can play an important role in capturing the unutilized money. The bank has to give huge
concentration on better customer service and satisfaction.
