INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
The word bank only means to focus commercial bank. In short, we could say those
organizations whose transaction is money and credit said to be bank. The word bank is
said to have organized from the French word “Banque" and Italian word "Banca". Its
literal meaning is to lend cash, money and to exchange money sitting on the bench
respectively. In ancient time, goldsmith where exchanging money sitting on the bench.
Their branches used to be broken by the depositors when they were unable to meet their
liabilities. Gradually people started to keep their gold, metals and coins and other
valuable ornaments with goldsmith and moneylenders. It was observed that money was
not withdrawn at once. Hence they started lending on interest. They started to lend
deposited money for the short time period. They received is interest from their invested
amount. Later on that type of transaction were developed as banking transaction and the
bank is originated.
In other word, the bank is an institution whose essential operation is to take deposit from
public and to lend money. Banks accumulate idle money from general public by
providing attractive sound interest rate in their deposits and disburse the collected
deposits as a loan to business organizations, industrial, agriculture sector and needy
people etc. So we can say that the main task of commercial bank is to mobilize idle
sources in productive areas by collecting it from scattered sources and generating profit.
The bank plays an important role in our economy by providing effective service
efficiently towards the attainment of economic development.
Banking has come to present advanced form through various stages. Traditional form of
banking was traced during the civilization of Greek, Rome and Mesopotamia. But the
first modern banking institution was originated at Italy in 1157 A.D named as "The Bank
of Venice". "The Bank of England" was established in 1694 A.D as the first central bank;
add a strong brick on the development of banking sector. After this evolution, there came
2
a remarkable change in the process of establishing the banking institution. This was a big
landmark in the history of banking development. The ideal of commercial banks rapidly
spread all over the world only after the foundation of this bank.
In Nepal, banking in true sense of term started with the inception of "Nepal Bank Ltd." on
30th Kartik, 1994 B.S. is carried out functions of commercial Bank. Having felt the need
of a central Bank," Nepal Rastra Bank" was established in 2013 B.S. under the Central
Bank Act, 2012 to fulfill the adequate services for increasing commercial activities in the
country. "Rastriya Banijya Bank (R.B.B)" was established in 2022 B.S. as a fully
government owned commercial bank. Now there are 17 commercial banks in total. ON
the other hand, there are 56 finance companies, 5 rural development banks, one
agriculture development banks and other many financial institutions.
Nabil is amongst the most successful joint venture organization in Nepal registering
strong growth in balance footings as well as profits year after year. The initial capital of
Rs 30 million invested in 1984 has grown to Rs 1314 million as at 2019.
The bank provides a complete range of personal, Commercial, corporate banking and
related financial services through its 17 branches and 1 counters. The head office of Nabil
bank Ltd. is located at Nabil House, kamaladi, Kathmandu. Out of total branches 4
branches are in the Kathmandu valley and remaining branches are in Birgunj, Biratnagar,
Itahari, Parsa, Butwal, Rupandehi, Bhairahawa, Pokhara, Dharan and Nepalgunj. And
their counters are serving at Thamel, Kathmandu and Tribhuwan International Airport,
Kathmandu. The main function of head office is to check account of branches, control
their credit, suggest for operating accounting and other managerial function and it
handled a certain number of special customer of kamaladi branch having all commercial
functions.
• To find out the co-relation between fixed deposit and total deposit.
• To find out the trend of fixed deposit and total deposit.
opportunities and threats of Nabil Bank Ltd. Similarly it can be a good asset of library
and it may help the bank because some suggestions have been provided.
In every bank, there are many types of problems. In the context of this study following
problems are seen:
• Nabil Bank is not collecting fixed deposit by determining proper interest rates
and developing banking habits among the people.
• Ignorance of social responsibilities
• Improper utilization of there total deposit
• Due to maximum operating expenses.
Commercial banks are the most important types of financial institution for the nation in
terms of aggregate assets. Traditional functions of commercial banks are only concerned
with accepting deposits & providing loans. But modern commercial banks work for overall
development of trade, commerce, services, & agriculture also. The business of banking is
very broad in modern business age. The number & variety of services provided by bank
will probably expand. Recent innovation in banking include the introduction of credit
cards, accounting services for business firms, factoring, leasing, participating in the Euro-
dollar market, & lock-box banking. The main functions of commercial banks are as
follows:
5
iii. Agency Services: - The bank also performs number of services on behalf of the
customers. The following are the agency functions provided by the bank.
When funds are plentiful, market rate generally tend to decline, banks seek an
aggressively and therefore lower their rates induce marginal borrower to come into the
market. When funds are scare, banks raise their rates and come potential borrowers may
differ the use of credit or seek it elsewhere (Crosse, 1963: 63).

The writer stresses on the fulfillment of credit needs of various sectors, which insures
investment. The investment lending policy of commercial bank is based on the profit
maximization as well as the economic enhancement of the country (Shresha, 2058: 31-
32). The investment objective is to increase systematically the individual’s wealth defined
as assets minus liabilities. The higher the level of desired wealth the higher the return
must be received (Cheney & Moses, 1991: 23).
Pradhan (2053) in his article “Deposit mobilization, its problem and prospects” has
presented that deposit is the life-blood of every financial institution like commercial bank,
finance company, co-operative or non-government organization. He further adds consider
the most of banks and finance companies that the latest figure does produce a strong
feeling that serious review must be made on problems and prospects of deposit sector.
Leaving few joint venture banks, other organizations rely heavily on the business deposit
and credit disbursement.
The writer found that the deposit credit ratio is only 52% on average, which shows
unutilized resources are increasing. The security-marketing corporation, which is recent
established, can play an active role for utilization of unutilized resources. The writer
further found that NBL should not only concentrate in the extension of short-term credit
only. Bank should increase the level on priority sector and extent its branches to meet
growing needs of the country.
On the theses, the writer found that NBL has been much sufficient in collection of
resources from the people in both urban and rural areas of the country, but in the process
of utilization, the bank is still behind. The interest rate has played important role in
mobilizing and utilizing the resources of the bank. So, the structure of interest rate should
be changed according to the need of nation. It is also suggested that to expand availability
of banking services, branch expansions policy should be continued to mobilize resources
as well as accelerate lending to productive sector.
“A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in
a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in
procedure.”
The research examines the facts and postulates in certain frameworks on details and
supplies the important information on subject matter, summary of the study, major
findings of the study, recommendations, conclusion etc. are the most significant
information among them, they are derived with the help of some financial and statistical
tools were adapted to evaluate the fund mobilization of joint venture banks viz. SANIMA
and NIBL in consideration not only to research about them but also to facilitate among
them.
There are altogether 27 commercial banks functioning all over the kingdom and most of
their stocks are traded actively in the stock market. Among them nine are JVBs and
remaining are domestic commercial banks. Among all the banks only NABIL banks is
taken as a sample for study. These banks are compared as per fund mobilizing activities.
They are:
These two banks are compared as per fund mobilization procedure, that they are adopting
to mobilize their collected funds as well as own funds.
The study is mainly based on secondary data. The secondary sources of data collections
are those that have been used from published on used by someone previously. The
secondary sources of data are Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss account and literature
publication of the concerned banks. The NEPSE report of the concerned bank has
furnished some important data to this research work. Some supplementary

The various results obtained with the help of financial, accounting and statistical tools are
tabulated under different headings. Then they are compared with each other to interpret
the results
There are many parts of financial sector but the present study concern only on
CBs.
There are 30 CBs in Nepal but this study covers only two such Banks. It has to be
assumed that these banks represent all Nepalese commercial bank.
The secondary data is about 2018/19 to 2022/23.

Statistical Analysis:
Karl Pearson's Correlation Co-efficient:
Of the several mathematical method of measuring correlation, the Karl Pearson’s method,
popularly known as Pearson co-efficient of correlation is most widely used in practice.
The Pearson Co-efficient of correlation is denoted by symbol '' which shows the
relationship between the two variables. The value of '' always lies between -1 and +1
when =+1, it means there is perfectly positive correlation between two variables. When
=-1 there is perfectly negative correlation between two variables. When =0 it means
there is no relationship, however, in practice, such values of '' as +1,-1 and 0 are rare.
The formula for computing Pearson co-efficient of correlation is:
xy
=
x2y2
Where;
x=(X-X)
y=(Y-Y)
On the following table,
Let, Fixed deposit be "X"
Total deposit be "Y"

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
3.1 Discussion
The management of the joint venture Banks are mainly held by foreign banks. Because of
its qualitative managerial skills, international chain of branches, almost customer
satisfaction, advanced technology, electronic banking services, worldwide fund transfer
system, credit cards, tele banking, automatic teller machines etc. Joint venture Banks have
been able to meet their objectives within the short period.
This report attempts to examine and evaluate the financial performance of Nabil with
special reference to fixed deposit. Further, it attempts the deep evaluation for the role of
fixed deposit in total deposit. The financial statement of five years i.e. fiscal year to fiscal
year 2006/2004 has been taken into consideration for the purpose of this study which has
been first proceed and analyzed comparatively. This study is exploratory As well as
analytical to some extent.
Financial performance of the Bank seems to be petty sound and successful. From the
current situation the role of Bank is maintaining financial status and monetary standard is
satisfactory. The efficiency of Bank in managing its resources can be found by looking at
its activity ratios, which is also encouraging. The investment to total deposit ratio is
satisfactory because it is in increasing trend (i.e. 48.64%, 52.88%, 45.85% 41.33% etc).
The cash and bank balance to fixed deposit is also satisfactory which is shown by
increasing ratio (i.e. 20.62%, 21.86%, 42.99%, 50.82%, and 41.99%).
Fixed deposit of the bank has played and imperative role in collection of funds. But the
fixed deposit collection of Bank is not satisfactory. The decreasing trend line of fixed
deposit with passage of time tells the fixed deposit is not directly proportional to total
deposit in period for five years.
In the introduction part, general background, role functions and limitations of study have
been expressed. Some relevant review of literatures and research methodology are also
expressed in this section. In the analytical section, analysis of various ratios, correlation
and trend analysis are expressed.
Therefore, overall performance of Nabil resulted in the form of this report indicate that
bank should take corrective action to boost the fixed deposit.

3.2 Conclusion
Nabil bank’s financial performance seems to be petty sound and successful. The current
situation tells us that the role of bank is managing financial status and monetary standards
is satisfactory. By observing at its activity ratios, we can found that the efficiency of bank
is managing its resources.
The investment to total deposit ratio is satisfactory because it is in increasing
trend (i.e. 48.64%, 52.88%, 44.85%, 41.33% etc)
Regarding the fixed deposit and trend value the decreasing trend value of fixed
deposit with passage of time tells that fixed deposit is not directly proportional
to total deposit in period for 5 yrs.
Balance with NRB to total deposit is unsatisfactory because their ratio is
2018/19 i.e. 3.23% increasing till the year 2019/20 is automatically decreasing
to 4.28% and 2.67% in 2021/22 and 2022/23 respectively.
Fixed deposit is a long term deposit which helps bank to mobilize them on
investment, loan and advances. According to study analysis position of fixed
deposit is declining which is unsatisfactory (i.e. 3719203, 2440846, 2202545,
2310572, and 2078535 with their respective years).
There is positive correlation between fixed deposit and total deposit (i.e. 0.698
which lies between -1 to +1).
Implications
On the basis of findings mentioned above some recommendation have been derived as
follows:
Nabil is not getting success to increase the proportion of fixed deposit in total
deposit. So, Nabil is suggested to increase the collection of fixed deposits by
determining proper interest rates and developing banking habits among the
people.
Most of the joint venture Banks are established in the city areas ignoring the
social responsibilities. These banks are required to extend their banking facility
even in the rural areas providing social loans to the deprived and priority
sectors.
Nabil is suggested to minimize their operating expenses as far as possible since
it contributes to increase the volume of profit.
27
The investment of Bank in current year has been decreased then in previous year
so to maintain the increasing trend of investment, Bank should increase its
investment amount considering its liquidity needs.
Nabil is suggested to improve in utilization of its total deposits in extending loan
and advances.
