CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION OF BANKING INDUSTRY
Bank can be defined as the financial intermediary between depositors and entrepreneurs.
The intermediation takes place when banks accept deposits from the general public,
corporate bodies, and private organizations and deploys those deposits for profitable
purpose in the form of loans and advances. Bank is financial service institution, therefore in
between this intermediation, the bank gets some earning.
According to shorter oxford English dictionary, “A bank is an establishment for the custody
of money, received from or on behalf of each customer. Essential duty is to pay their draft
on each profit area from its use of the money left unemployed by them.”
By this definition, the bank can easily be defined as the custodian of deposits. The
transactions in the financial market heavily depend upon the banking system of the country.
Without the bank, it would be quite impossible for the industrialist and entrepreneurs to go
directly to the general public for getting their savings or investments. So, the simplest
definition is that bank takes the saving of public by providing them with certain rates of
interest and loan it to needy customers charging them the certain rate of interest and earns
some profit. This is the broadest form of banking but in this age, banking is such big term.
It does a lot more than deposits and credits, remitting of money, letter of credit etc.
The word bank has been derived from Italian word banco. In the ancient time in the French
language, it is called the bank, in The English language it is called the bank. In Italian word,
banco means bench. The evolution of banking industry had started a long time back in
ancient times. There was the reference to the activity of money changers in the temple of
Jerusalem in the New Testament. In ancient Greece, the famous temples Delphi and
Olympia served as great depositories for people surplus funds and these were the centres of
moneylending transactions. Indeed, the traces of rudimentary banking were found in the
Chaldean, Egyptian and Phoenician history. The development of banking in the ancient
Rome roughly followed the Greek pattern. Banking suffered oblivion after the fall of the
roman empire after the death of emperor Justinian in 565 AD and it was not until the revival
of trade and commerce in the Middle Ages that the lesson of finance was learnt a new from
the beginning. Money lending in the Middle Ages was however largely confined to the Jews
since the Christians were forbidden by the cannon law to indulge in the sinful act of lending
money toothers on interest. However, as the hold of church loosened with the development
of trade and commerce about the 13th century Christian also took to the lucrative business
1
of moneylending thereby entering into keen competition with the Jews hither monopolized
the business.
As a public enterprise banking made its forced beginning around the middle of the
12thcentury in Italy and the Bank of Venice founded in 1157 was the first public banking
institution. Following it were the bank of Barcelona and the Bank of Genoa in 1401 and
1407respectively. The latter two continued to operate until the 18th century. With the
expansion of commercial activities in northern Europe, there sprang up a number of private
banking houses in Europe. And slowly it spread throughout the world.
When the World War-2 was inching towards its end major countries started mulling the
plight of the future world. There were valued concern about the reconstruction of devastated
areas and rebuilding and developing the war-hit economies. In 1944, they gathered at Breton
woods in New Hampshire State of the USA. They made a remarkable decision to boost
international trade and economic growth and to achieve monitor stability in the global
economy. The following organizations is the outcomes of historical greater woods
conference of July 1944: IBRD (World Bank), IMF (International Monetary Fund), and ITO
(International Trade Organization).
Nepal being a developing country, its banking history is not so long. According to historical
records, Our King Mandev and Gunakamdev established Manank and Ginak mudra
respectively. Gunakdev borrowed money to rebuild Kathmandu in 723 AD. A merchant
named Sankhadhar paid all the debts of people and established Nepal Sambat for the
remembrance of that occasion in 80 AD. Likewise, Jaysthiti Malla classified the people in
four classes and 36 castes by their occupation. One of those castes who were involved in
money lending business at that time named as Tanka-Dhari during the prime minister ship
of Rannodip Singh. Likewise, Tejarath Adda was established as the first financial institution
of the country. In the beginning, only government staffs were allowed to take loans at 5
%interest rates and later on public were also allowed to take the loan at the same interest
rate against the gold and silver securities. Taksar Bivag was also established since 1989.Our
oldest bank is Nepal Bank Ltd. established in 1994 BS. 30th Kartik. After that, so many
banks were established. Nepal Rastra Bank was established in the year 2012 as a central
bank of the country. Sunrise Bank Limited, another commercial bank was established in
2022.Only after 2041 B.S, Nepal government allowed joint venture banks to operate in the
country. At present, the banking sector is more liberalized and there are various types of the
bank working in the modern banking system. This includes central, commercial, and
development banks.
Banks have, today gained paramount trust in the public. The functions of banks are not
confined just to accept deposits and give loans; they render a wide range of financial services
2
covering different strata of society. This gives us an impression regarding the need of a bank.
Need of bank includes but does not limit to:
• Financial intermediation
• Legal entity and freedom from exploitation
• Boost of trade and economic development
• Organized institution and capital formation
• Fund transfer and safety of valuables
• Underwriting services and agency services
• Employment
Different banks are established for different purposes. They can be classified into the
following types:
• Central Bank
The Central bank is the bank of all banks. It is the supreme body, which controls and
stabilizes the economy of the country through various direct and indirect means. In direct
means, it uses the monetary policy as a tool to expand and contract the economic activities
of the country and in indirect means; it uses tools like issuance of treasury bills, national
savings bond, and bank rates etc. the central bank neither maintains accounts of public nor
does it give loans to the public. Nepal Rastra Bank which was established in 26th April
1956is the central bank of Nepal and Bank of England in 1694 A.D. was the first central
bank of the world
• Commercial Bank
Commercial banks are the largest source of finance and its business is largely confined to
business institutions. Though the commercial banks were established with the concept of
supplying short-term credit and working capital needs of industries, they started to provide
long-term loans for up to 10 years by the provision made in commercial bank act 1974. after
the enforcement to lend in priority and deprived sector, these banks initiated to provide
credit to small and cottage industries, agriculture, and services etc. Nepal bank Ltd was
established in 15th November 1937 as the first commercial bank in Nepal.
• Agriculture Bank
3
• Development Bank
Development banks are established for the development of the economy. Nepal industrial
development corporation (NIDC) was established in 1956, with the objective of providing
medium-term loans for the establishment, development and modernization of private sector
industries. Small industry Development Corporation was established in 1960 to provide
loans to small-scale industries and it was merged to NIDC in 1971.
• Cooperative Bank
• Saving Bank
The establishment of saving bank was to alleviate property through the encouragement of
thrift among the poor and marginalized community. Savings banks offer higher interest rate
than other banks and the fund is utilized by the government. The first savings bank in Nepalis
the Hulak Bachat Bank established in 1962 A.D
• Rural Bank
Rural banks are established with the aim of providing credit and other facilities to the small
and marginal farmers, agricultural laborers, artisans and small entrepreneurs in rural areas.
The main purpose of rural banks is to bridge the vast credit gap in the rural sector and curtail
the role of unauthorized private moneylenders. All financial needs of the medium and small
firms are expected to be met by the rural banks
• Merchant Bank
Merchant banking institutions offers various specialists services such as loan syndication,
financing and management consultancy, project counselling, portfolio management,
formulation of schemes for rehabilitation, guidance on foreign trade financing and
management and advisory services to medium and small savers.

Commercial Bank Act 2031 states- “A commercial bank is the bank which exchanges
money, accepts deposits, grant loans, and perform banking function.
According to S.2A, of Commercial Bank Act 1974 AD “Commercial banks are the heart of
the economic system. They hold deposits of millions of people, government and business
unit. It exchanges money, accepts the deposit, grant loan and operates commercial
transactions
The main function of the commercial bank simply is ‘to borrow to lend’. Besides, there are
other functions which have been developed according to need of the society as
• Accepting deposits
• Advancing loans
• Discounting bills of exchange
• Transfer of money
• Miscellaneous functions
Banks are gradually starting to realize that, in today’s competitive banking environment,
exemplary customer service is one of the distinguishing characteristics that banks can
exploit to establish a competitive edge. Since most banks offer comparable products and
services, they should continually search for a competitive advantage that will attract new
customers and help retain existing ones. Banks are therefore, looking to develop innovative
products and services to maintain superior customer services levels while at the same time
remaining profitable. With the number of market players in the rise, the competition has
been obviously growing in the banking industry. The most obvious effect of the rising
competition can be seen in the interest rates offered by the banks. Banks are gradually
shifting towards the IT-based solution to enhance service delivery in order to address
customer concerns. Most banks are embracing E-banking and provision of ATMs to reduce
long queue in the banking hall. In addition, some banks have launched mobile phone
banking services which facilities several account queries tools, including account balances,
thereby minimizing the need for customers to visit banks. This drive towards the IT-based
solution will continue to gather momentum in the future as banks will find it very difficult
to survive in the ever-growing competition without some form of competitive advantages.
Another trend observed nowadays is large corporate houses explore the shift towards
multiple banking relationships. In order to remain competitive, banks are seen to be
increasingly encouraging business houses to transact with them. This has led to the creation
of the large volume of unutilized limits with the bank and in order to get a large piece of the
pie banks are increasingly accepting risks, which they otherwise would not have taken. The
unyielding competition has also led the banks to accept collaterals that are riskier and more
unsecured. The volume of loan against the hypothecation of stock, receivable and other
assets are on the rise. In the absence of hypothecation in the current assets, the risk of over
financing is eminent and banks are exposed to the higher degree of risk. A total number of
commercial banks and their date of the establishment are presented in Annex 1.

CHAPTER 3
ANALYSIS OF ACTIVITIES DONE AND PROBLEM SOLVED
3.1 ACTIVITIES PERFORMED
During my internship program in SRBL, different responsibilities were given. Various
activities were carried out to fulfil the responsibilities. As mentioned earlier the intern
performed different operation activities at different department of the bank during the period
of eight weeks. Some of the activities performed during the internship period under different
department are analysed as follows:
3.1.1 Activities Performed in Different Department
A) Firstly, Account Opening form is received including KYC form. The account opening
form should contain account name, account holder name, nominee name and signature.
For account opening customer authenticated record like passport, citizenship, nominee
citizenship, utility bill or identity card, three passport size photos are essential. The
signature specimen card should be duly completed and signed by the customer.
B) Account number is given as per sequence following computer system rule to open the
account in computer. The account number is of 12 digits, first three indicate branch
code and last two digit denote the product code. E.g., 10 for saving account, 01 for
current account and so on.
C) Then the customer is asked to deposit the minimum balance required as prescribed in
17
the assigned account number and told to show the deposit slip with them and half is
given to customer.
D) Then customer is requested to collect the cheque book next day and customer is
released. If the customer does not the cheque book, but only want a debit card the debit
card application form is filled up and he/she said that they will be informed through
mobile SMS or a phone call after their debit card is ready.
E) Then, documents are checked as per details given in Account Opening Rules according
to the nature of the account.
F) Then, Account Opening form is submitted to assistant manager for further
investigation.
G) The documents are returned to CSD after authorization.
H) If there is discrepancy of documents found by the manager then the customer is
informed about that and is asked to clear the discrepancy.
I) Signature is scanned for the computer access. All other information related to the
customer is written in the account opening section of Pumori for future reference.
J) The account opening form and KYC along with other necessary documents are kept in
a serial order as per account number for future reference.
K) The procedures for opening fixed, current and saving account in SRBL are all most all
same. Another task done under account opening operation is account closing. People
close their accounts because of many reasons. The client desire to close the account,
sometimes the bank may close (in case unable to pay debt), in case of client, instantly
etc.
• Account Closing Procedure:
A) Closing an account is just opposite of account opening. Opening of the account can be
taken as the contract between bank and customers whereas closing of the account is
termination of the contract. SRBL account can be closed in the following ways:
B) At the request of the customer: Customer has the full right to close the account. Just
he/she has to fill up the account closing form with the necessary details as account
number, signature, name, reason for closing the account. He/ She has to return the
remaining cheque leaves and debit card to the bank. It is checked from the database at
Pumori. Before closing any account bank staffs verifies the signature, check all the
liabilities of the customer in the bank as LC, Guarantee, Loan, Locker etc. and
administration department signs on account closing form so as to confirm the particular
customer do not have any liability remaining with the bank. The charge of the account
closing is Rs. 200. If he/she is unable to return the remaining cheques leaves and debit
card additional 100 for cheque and 200 for debit card is charged.
C) At the initiative of the bank: Especially in case of fixed deposit account bank closes
after the expiry of the time period. The amount of the fixed deposited is transferred to
other normal account of the customer as per mentioned in the form. On the other
instances the bank has no right to close bank account without consent of the customer.
D) Blocking the account: Banks block the account of the customer in the following cases:
o In case of valid notice of lunacy or the death of the account holder.
o In case of the receipt of the “garnishee order” from the court regarding the account
18
o In case of blacklisting of client.
E) All the documents relating to the account closing of the customer should be filed
separately along with the application form of the customer for future references.
• Signature Scanning
Another task carried out in CSD was signature scanning of saving and current account holders.
At first account opening form is placed in the scanner and using photoshop, signature along
with photo are scanned for saving account holders and registered in their respective accounts
and for current account holder logo of the firm along with signature of each member is scanned

CONCLUSION
4.1 Conclusion
An internship course of BBA has its own significance, which makes the students to complete
graduation in real world exposures of theoretical knowledge. Internship provides the
opportunity of gaining the practical knowledge and observing the real application of theoretical
aspects. Some facts about the privacy and systematic approach of the organization were
revealed. Internship has helped to explore the fundamentals of banking system.
Coordination and integration of various departments in banking systems is a must. Banking
organization is divided into various functional areas which are interlinked, interconnected and
interdependent with each other. If there are no team efforts then no organization can achieve
its organizational goals. Therefore, there must be cooperation and support within the staff of
the overall functional areas to be successful.
The bank should value the customer needs and solve the problems as soon as possible as tight
competition between them is taking a massive form. This helps to retain and maintain existing
customer by providing service up to their expectations. It should take various customer
feedbacks and provide them prompt and convenient services. These were observed as an intern
in SRBL.
SRBL has been successful to create its own image within the country, and it is also successful
to create the banking relation with most of the countries of the world. It is capable to render its
services necessary for export and import to any businessperson of the world. SRBL is playing
a leading role in banking industry through its innovative products and services that match the
customer’s expectations.
4.2 Lesson Learnt
This internship report is based on internship done at Sunrise Bank Limited, Birgunj Branch
The lessons learnt are as follows:
1. Interpersonal Skills
Internship training helped to maintain good relationship with the customers. It helped to
enhance interpersonal skill by learning ways to interact with people. Positive attitude is must
in maintaining a good relationship. Being friendly with co-workers and giving respect to
superiors and love subordinates is important.
2. Time Management Skills
It is very important to manage time everywhere, mostly when someone is waiting for you to
get his job done. Customers’ issues have to be addressed very efficiently and fast. While
working as an intern in any organization, one becomes member of that organization. The rules
and regulations bind every single employee in organization. One of the professional skills
learned is time management skill. One becomes strictly punctual regarding arrival and
departure time.
22
3. Network Skill
During the internship, clients from various professional background had to be faced daily.
Maintaining good relationship with those clients helped to develop network. Also,
familiarizing with supervisor and other bosses of various departments helped to create positive
image in their perception.
4. Team Working Skills
The layout and work flow in RBB is designed so as to work as a team. The staffs have to work
as a team. Communication and coordination with other internee, department and employees
helped to develop teamwork skills.
5. Work Ethic
When associated with any organization, work ethic is crucial factor. RBB has its set of culture,
Ethics and norms. Being involved RBB, one gets opportunity to work under physical
environment guided by its culture and norms.
6. Personal Evaluation
One of the most important learning during internship is that it helps individual identify internal
strengths and weakness. Interns are exposed to real world situation so if they are capable to
learn and use their skills to perform any tasks, it proves to be their strengths and if they could
not, it shows their weakness.
7. Emotional Stability
No matter what mood you are in, once you are inside your workplace, you need to
focus in your work rather than your mood swings. The personal emotion should not
be reflected on work which is very important in work career. Stability in mood while
handling customers and interacting with others is very essential at workplace.
8. Communication Skill
Communication is very important in every organization. Communication brings people
together. During internship one understands that communication is most to deal with clients.
The more one interacts with staffs and customers, more communication skills get improved.
Therefore, internship is a platform to improve communication skill. The more you start
communicating, the more you get confident.
9. Skill

taught how activities are done in the department and can take place soon. Detail information
regarding the operation and activities, proper guidance, and supportive environment was
provided to him so that he could learn in favourable working environment.

23
o Coding and programming of applications, design, hardware, language, network
security.
o Project management like benchmarking, engineering, operations and task management.
Social media experience like blogging, twitter, and web analytics
4.3 Observed Gap
Theory is what the student study from the book and practical is what the student does in the
practical life. In theory, student learns basic things of the subjects but in practical student know
how to utilize that theory in their daily life. The gaps between theoretical and practical
knowledge of the student about banking sector are as follows:
I. Student study about different department of banking sector but in real all the department
might not be in bank.
II. In theory the different facilities provided by the institution is studied but all the
institution cannot provide all the facilities to the customers.
III. In theoretical knowledge student only get a chance to know out surface but in practical
student gets the chance to know the organization entirely.
IV. While studying student know only the problem of organization in written but while
facing the problem in work and do the solution of that problem was the practical work.
V. The applicability and usefulness of business education to real-life business can be
known from the practical knowledge.
24
III. Job enrichment and rotation
Job enrichment and job rotation helps to increase the job commitment of employee. They will
feel more responsible and more autonomy towards the work which can lead to better service
and operation. Therefore, SRBL should introduce job rotation and enrichment.
IV. Proper employee allocation
Overemployment in the other department and lack of employee in the customer service
department reduces the productivity of the organization, Therefore, they need to allocate the
employee according to work pressure in the department.
V. Need of timely monitoring and supervision
Supervision and evaluation are essential in order to have information about the employee inside
the working environment. The supervision and evaluation techniques seem to lack behind in
SRBL. Day to day observation of working environment, work process and the performance of
the employee is quite necessary to collect information about the work flow. So, proper and
timely supervision and monitoring system should be implemented timely to improve the
performance and know about the working behaviour of the employee.
