Industry Introduction
Meaning of Bank:
It is normally accepted to be the word bank started in Italy. The war in the mid-12th century
was a major financial crisis in Italy. To meet up the costs of war, the government imposed a
enforced loan granted for the society in the interest of 5% P.A. It is known, such as loans
Compara, Mintuo etc. The most common name Monte. Monte word Bank`s appointed bank
in Germany. According to some authors, the word derives from the word bank has been It is
also called the word bank is derived from a word that means banks banch. Jewish money
lenders do their business in Italy sitting on branches in different market places. Do any of
them used to feel to fulfill its obligations, will be broken by angry creditors bank or credit the

each edge. All types of banking institutions to cover a common and comprehensive definition
would be unscientific and probably impossible. Any bank must specify the definition of
special functions. Lawmakers have explained this problem is realized and Exchange Bill Act
1882 (UK) the bank said, was whether or not incorporated, whether it includes a body
carrying on banking business that Is. This definition makes it clear to us that there are
different banking institution that functions can be declared as a bank. But in practice it is
found that many banking functions from time to time and vary from one place. This is not
possible by a single bank to manage all banking functions at this time. If the number of
special banks with the aim of committing one or more functions in one. As for example,
Central Bank, Commercial Bank, Industrial Bank, Agricultural Bank, Co-operative Bank etc.,
are in the practical field.Dr. Herbert L. Hart has defined a Banker as A Banker is one who in
the ordinary courses of business honors cheques drawn upon him by persons for whome he
receives money on current account. According to Sir John Paget No one and no body
corporate and otherwise can be a Banker who does not (i) take deposit accounts (ii) take
current accounts (iii) issue and pay cheques drawn upon himself (iv) collect cheques crossed
and uncrossed for his customers.

or description to return by the firm or company check, draft or order.Banking Ordinance 1962
(Pakistan), or banker or bank banking and acceptance plans to use the money in reserves to
the topic defines as banking lending or investing in redeemable or otherwise deposits,
demand from the public and cheaque, withdraw from the draft, order or otherwise. In view of

Most people are not aware of products AKBL.

For this reason it is especially important to widely publicize the RTC and MasterCard.

Behavior Bank has stated that good looking, rich, educated and seemed to try to feel a little
strange to feel peaceful with poor consumer bank environment. Bank employees should try to
accommodate all kinds of consumer behavior.

Page 33 of 38
AKBL special skills due to the rotation policy of the work of the Department of Human
Resources. Banks should focus on increasing its capabilities on the basis of individual
services.

Ttime a big mistake in my AKBL branches, bank official closing time of 17:30 and the
common but poorly managed due to the allocation of staff until 7:00 or 8: 00 hours of work in
their countries.

Development process is a bit slow due to the conservative approach.

Slow improvement and acceptance of technological change.

ATM network is the largest in Pakistan, there is still some potential areas ATM.

RTC is only available in Pakistan.

of computers.

Encourage low levels of motivation, non-aggressive marketing.

To mistreated due to employee dissatisfaction and inadequate reward system.

Favoritism and nepotism in recruitment.

Inadequate interest rates.
