Executive Summary
In this report, I have tried to discuss and define all of the major activities related with the
understanding of Corporate client’s perception and attitude regarding the performance of the
corporate client’s service department in a bank. In this report I have chosen to evaluate the level
of Corporate client relationship/satisfaction between National Bank Limited, Dilkusha Branch.
Marketing scope in banking sector should be considered under the service marketing framework.
Performed marketing strategy is the case which is determination of the place of financial
institutions on corporate clients mind.
The key purpose of the report has been to generate a particle understanding of the level of
Corporate client’s satisfaction between National Bank Limited, Dilkusha Branch. The key
service features required to develop good relationship with the corporate clients & NBL. To
identify/check the short comings of the service offering that NBL for providing necessary
suggestions.
Based on a survey of NBL(National Bank ltd.),at Dilkusha branch’s corporate clients in
Bangladesh, the impact of satisfaction, trust & the use of electronic banking on commitment
towards NBL is investigated. It is found that trust is the key factor influencing the acceptance of
electronic banking. Perceived Corporate client’s satisfaction with the bank only impacted
indirectly on the adoption of electronic banking. The cumulative effects of Corporate Clients
relationship are found to have a positive impact on trust directed towards this bank & this’s
greatly impacted on the propensity to use electronic banking. Corporate client’s satisfaction, trust
& the use of electronic banking are found to have a positive impact on the corporate clients
commitment towards this bank.
I have to work hard in order to complete the research work. It has very difficult for me
sometimes but I have given my level best in order to create a descent report. I have tried to put in
4
a rigorous and firm effort in order to analyze and evaluate the data, which had been obtained

Not only above but also so many different sector’s corporate clients, that NBL provide services
by depositing their money & payment them interest, loan& advance as per Bangladesh Bank
rules. So many Banks also follow this rule that provide by Bangladesh Bank. But in here,
exception is that NBL cutoff tax as little bit amount, where the another bank does not do this.
That’s why huge response that NBL gets in every year not only from corporate clients but also
general corporate client keeps their deposit & takes different loan as per their ability.

giving loans and advances to the corporate clients, take deposit, give foreign remittance facility

2.0 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY
2.1 Introduction
Marketing scope in banking sector should be considered under the service marketing framework.
Performed marketing strategy is the case which is determination of the place of financial
institutions on corporate clients’ mind. Bank marketing does not only include service selling of
the bank but also is the function which gets personality and image for bank on its corporate
client’s mind.
2.2 Rational of the Study
National Bank Limited is one of the most renowned private commercial bank in Bangladesh.
The report entitled “Relationship between NBL & its corporate clients” has been prepared as a
partial fulfillment of MBA program Faculty of Business administration, American International
University Bangladesh (AIUB) . In Today’s world only academic education does not make a
student perfect to become competitive with the outside world. Internship is highly needed to gain
idea, knowledge and practical experience.
It is not possible to know everything about banking service process within this limited time
period.
20
I chose the topic to find out the corporate client’s satisfaction level
between the organization.
To find out what type of facility the corporate client demand & wants
from the organization.
This topic will help me to know the reason for Evaluation, person who
should benefit from the evaluation, what type of evaluation should be
used and what problems might be encountered.
2.3 Statement of the Problem
Problems from the Corporate client’s point of view
ATM is the most widely used in other banks in our country. However, the
numbers of ATM booth are so much limited.
National bank limited does not have enough products comparing to other
banks of our country. It is also a very big problem.
The service of the bank is moderate, which is a big problem for NBL.
Problems from employee point of view:
Delay in loan processing system
Slow criteria of employee motivation
NBL web site does not give the all information for the employee
Service time is limited
21
The problem of NBL related to export:
Sometimes the exporters do not provide full documents with export form
(EXP form)
Exporters sometimes do not provide the EXP documents in right time. So
the bank faces problem to get the exporters full documents within
specified time that is service big problem to the client.
Sometimes corporate client authority takes time to provide the
documents. But the bank need to provide the triplicate EXP form to the
Bangladesh bank within the specified time.
The problems of National Bank limited related to foreign remittance:
Party declaration is a very big problem for the bank in case of foreign
remittance. Because the bank need to provide the report to Bangladesh
bank within the first five days in a month. But the corporate clients do not
contact within the specified.
2.4 Scope and Delimitation of the Report
While preparing the report I have learned a lot about the Bank and banking system situated in
Bangladesh. NBL is one of the well-known banking institution and I have known their products
and different terms of their business, how they work in the field and provide their services to
their corporate clients.
Commercial Bank of National Bank Ltd. These activities involve:
General Banking activities
Corporate client care service
22
Banks product and services
But special emphasis is given on the Corporate client care activities of the branch
In order to write this report I will work for 2 months as an intern in National Bank Limited
(Dilkusha Branch). I will also collect data from other sources related to my topic which is
mentioned in methodology. It has become essential for every person to have some idea on the
bank Institutions. As our educational system predominantly text based, inclusion of practical
orientation program is an exception to the norm. From practical knowledge, we’ll be able to
know real life situations and launch a career with some practical experience. My report topic has
been selected as “Relationship between NBL & its corporate clients”
During a short span of time the bank has been able to establish a good image in the banking
sector and has become a house hold name in the country due to several corporate clients- friendly
deposit and loan scheme. I am doing my internship in National Bank Limited with rotation on
different desks which includes accounts opening, general banking, clearing, loan and advance,
Import & Export etc. in this report “Relationship between NBL & its corporate clients” I’ll
focus on how &corporate client positive relation with this bank. Since they are standing at good
position among the private banks, their market share, marketing mechanisms, overall strength
and weakness, objectives, goals will be cross examined for analyzing the fact that how they were
and how they will be in future.
Corporate Clients relationship between the bank are internal environment of the branch, various
schemes offered, location, attitude of officers, query handling, prompt service delivery, various
charges, interest rate, networking and so on. The study shows that most of the corporate clients
are satisfied with the services of the bank but there are some dissatisfying factors which are
inflexibility in credit sanctioning facility, higher interest rate, inadequate e-banking facilities and
so on. In these circumstances, to better satisfy corporate clients the branch should be more
flexible in giving loans, charge reasonable interest rate, and can undertake some promotional
measures to make corporate clients aware of the services.
As I am directly in touch with corporate clients, the report will deal with the service quality and
corporate client’s positive relation with National Bank Limited. A survey will be conducted on
the corporate clients of National Bank Limited. The objective of this report will be to determine
23
to how well National Bank Limited is satisfying the corporate clients on different service
grounds. Various important issues of corporate clients satisfaction will be presented in the
findings of the survey.
Lastly the findings will be examined to prescribe a set of specific recommendations to improve
the overall service quality according to corporate clients expectations and also to solve the
existing problems in the whole organizational level.
2.5 Objectives of the Report
The endeavor of this report is to endow me with valuable practical knowledge about banking
operations and activities and analyze the performance of the National Bank Ltd. The objective of
the study was to determine the corporate clients’ perception about the service quality of
Corporate client care department of National Bank Ltd. It gave the management an idea about
the quality of the service that they are providing and will help them to make decision to improve
that.
To identify the key service features required to develop good relationship with the
corporate clients.
To identify/check the short comings of the service offering that NBL for providing
necessary suggestions.

3.0 LITERATURE REVIEW
The impact of market conditions corporate clients always wants to take more profit ,well interest
rate from their deposit, They takes loan if they show well deposit in the same bank. NBL
(Dilkusha Branch) keeps all the criteria for their client. From 1983 to Present different sectors
client NBL performs so nice servicing policy. For this reason, client numbers of NBL is
increasing day by day. NBL (Dilkusha Branch) is a large size of bank. So different department
has there. Experienced employee stays for servicing purposes. There has no chance to negative
impact for the corporate clients.
Always DMD of NBL (Dilkusha) stay for searching new client though stay the existing
corporate clients. Deposit, Loan, L/C opening information gets the corporate clients so easy way
by the experienced employee. So, NBL (Dilkusha Branch) obviously creates positive or good
relationship between the corporate clients.
In this bank, there are so many service features for the corporate clients. They keeps their
deposit(SND,CD,FDR).They take loan(SOD,CC,SME).For L/C opening they take the services
are-(Back to back L/C,Packing credit).
25
In NBL (Dilkusha branch) for the corporate client service is the service provided in support of a
Core Product. Corporate client service most often includes answering question, taking orders,
dealing with billing issue, handling complaints and perhaps scheduling maintenance.
Corporate client service occurs on site or it can occur over the phone or via the internet. NBL
operates corporate client service call centers, often staffed around the clock. Typically there is no
charge for corporate client Service.
Corporate client service quality is essential to build Corporate client relationships, that is
performed by the NBL successfully because no extra charge when they draw money, internal
environment is so nice to sit for the corporate clients.
The success of Corporate client service is the Corporate client’s satisfaction that handle as
strictly by NBL employee. A Corporate client might experience various degree of satisfaction
because experienced NBL employee always ready for every moment.
NBL emphasizes attentiveness and promptness in dealing with Corporate client request,
question, complaints, and problems.
Responsiveness is communicated on corporate client by the length of time they have to wait for
assistance, answer to question, or attention to problems, that NBL performs nicely.

The exploratory survey reached perform with the respondent by door-to-door interview method
where respondents go through a questionnaire survey by taking the help of respondents I
constructed a very specific questionnaire that prepared with flexibility to make it unbiased and
the survey structured by both “open -ended” and “close –ended”. In this research a convenience
sampling applied and may need judgmental sampling application in some condition. This
collection information presented in a graphical percentage manner but in standard editing and
coding system. For conducting the research, I took 100 respondents as sample size.
Corporate client’s satisfaction Level analysis
Besides every quality report some research or analysis is needed.. I tried to analyze the
questionnaire and Graph in order to measure the overall service condition delivered by the
Corporate client service between the bank. The methodology by which the whole survey is
analyzed was very simple and in some question I follow the Scale for perfection of the analysis.
I also tried to represent the questionnaire through (Pie ,column) Diagram. Basically I tried to
formulate the questions such a way that the analysis can show the overall service condition and
the satisfaction level of the corporate clients. 15 questions are actually about the Relationship
between the Corporate clients care that serves by NBL.

5.0 DATA ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION
1. How did you come to know about National Bank Ltd.?
The sources are shown in the table:
Newspaper Staff of the Bank
Relatives Business Magazines
Others
14% 23% 10% 11% 42%
Table-1
So from this analysis I found that 42% people came to know about this bank from external
source. The marketing structure of the National Bank Ltd. goes very defensive mode. Only 14%
corporate clients of 100% are concern about NBL by their publicity. So I think that the NBL
should concentrate more on their advertising at different media.
29

2. Why the corporate clients maintaining accounts with National Bank Ltd.?
Better Corporate client Service
Trustful Than Other Bank
Good Liquidity Higher Interest Rate
Other Facility

Table-2
I found that the corporate clients are satisfied with the Corporate client service of the National
Bank Ltd.. For this basis they are maintained their accounts with this bank. But as an intern I
found that some corporate clients are not happy with the interest rate of the bank. If National
Bank Ltd. upgrade all factors concerning the table then definitely deposit growth will take place
rapidly.

3. What types of account Corporate clients are maintaining with this bank?
Current deposit
Fixed deposit SND Foreign deposit
Other Type of deposit
30% 20% 33% 10% 7%
Table-3
Generally National Bank Ltd. is the renowned commercial bank in Bangladesh. The corporate
clients of this bank are mainly maintaining 33% SND(Special Notice Deposit) for its smart
interest rate. Moreover, corporate clients like: dealers, business person’s opens current account,
fixed deposit and foreign accounts. Students can easily apply for foreign remittance with the help
of the bank. So in this sense saving accounts are more famous for its corporate clients.
31

Maintaining Deposit Account
Remittance Facilities
Corporate Banking Facilities
Personal loan and service
Other
65% 15% 10% 3% 7%
Table-4
Table shows that corporate clients enjoy mostly by maintaining deposit accounts with the help of
the corporate client care service. The success of the corporate client care service is better
comparable to the other service provided by this bank. As an intern I found that remittance
service is growing rapidly make its own corporate clients. But people wants to get personal loans
that NBL does not offer for all corporate clients. The corporate client seems good position. So
this bank should be focus more through its corporate client care service.
32

with corporate clients who are dissatisfied and they told me that they found most of the time the
ATM machine is out of order and limited to different area. But important factor is that it tries to
improve vast ATM service to its corporate clients.

6.0 FINDINGS
While I am doing my Internship Program I had found out some problems faced by the
corporate clients.
Sometimes, Lack of information about the Corporate client banking Services,
corporate client usually have to face hesitation for the right information for the right
authorized officer.
Too slow server to work.
National Bank Ltd. partially automate their operations, so many works are still done
by manually. On the other hand, most of the banks automate whole activities, which
make their work easier and faster.
46
Refusing to provide introducer or photo for opening accounts, which is not
showed be done for the client.
Sometime corporate clients miss behave with the employees and stuffs but should
be proved that NBL was right.
Corporate clients are not satisfied with the ATM services of the Bank. Most of
the cases the machine is out of order and the technicians are not available.
Sometimes time not fixed for the client to take loan, deposit or take interest
which makes the corporate client fully hesitate.
For L/C opening sometimes create long time for not proper giving service to the
client
In cash counter receive & payment area of Dilkusha branch creates crowd for the
honorable corporate clients.
7.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendation of these report has been made on basis of the research findings of servicing
for the corporate client from National Bank Limited. With my little experience in bank, I have
observed and found out some aspect of their banking. On the basis of my observation I like to
recommend the following recommendation:
Management should focus more on quick service, empathy, duration of loan
repayment, card issues and loan processing time to ensure overall corporate
client’s satisfaction, as this has been statistically proven.
47
Banking is a service-oriented marketing. Its business profit depends on its service
quality. That’s why the authority always should be aware about their service
quality. Employees must give individual attention to consumer and efficiency
should be ensured.
Speed in servicing activities must be quick
The bank should adopt more technological devices to provide better services
Need to increase the number of ATM booths.
Online banking must be introduced for the client as vast area basis.
Retain & attract to the corporate client by servicing exist product & also
upgrading product, build positive relationship with the corporate client by
servicing that product’s information well to them.
To inform the client why NBL is the best bank for servicing activities than the
other banks, this activities must be done by the experienced employee in NBL.
8.0 CONCLUDING REMARKS
8.1 Conclusion
National bank limited has positive image itself as the local banks among third generation
bank. National bank limited is committed to keep up its promise to provide cordial services
in baking to its valued corporate clients. NBL management has always put special effort to
uphold the interest and trust of their corporate clients. NBL is initiating new products and
concentrating on the consumer demand that is drawing a difference between NBL with other
banks.
48
This research report has provided some interesting insight into what kind of service the
corporate clients give importance to and what quality they get from NBL. It is quite obvious
from the research that the corporate clients requirements are not fully met and they are very
dissatisfied with some of the aspects of the bank (loan interest rate, different service charges,
convenience location, organized processing etc.) again the research relevant that only one
third of corporate clients where more of less satisfied with the services of the bank and more
than half of the respondents were on the neutral side of satisfaction line. NBL should attract
this half and bring then to the positive side of the road so that strong relationship with the
corporate clients can be maintained.
In order to retain competitive edge, investment in technology is always a top level and under
constant focus. Keeping the network within a reasonable limit, NBL strategy is to serve the
corporate clients through capacity buildings across multi delivery channels. They are better
placed and poised to take corporate clients through fast changing times and enable them
compete more effectively in the market they operate.
The main purpose of this report is to study “Relationship between NBL & its corporate
clients” considering all the attributes which influence corporate clients should be more
effective for them. Due to the significantly important of those factors they can compete in the
market in the near future. In the servicing care unit which has some problem of NBL, must
be taken good care for retain & attract to the corporate clients.
8.2 Limitations of the Report
The report has been conducted to make an investigation of the bank's service oriented activities;
during carrying out the study in this field, some problems may be termed as limitations of the
study:
In NBL, all employees are too busy. It is tough to have a break from their tight
schedule & get some information
There are a lot of secret matters in the organization. As an intern the researcher
cannot reach to those secret topics. But only I have shown some familiar
49
companies name in this report, those are positively get better service from the
NBL.
Technological aspect: The report does not describe any technological aspect.
In some cases, up to date information were not published.
Lack of proper books, journals and other elements.
Sufficient records, publications facts and figure are not available, these hamper the
scope of real analysis.
Many procedural matters were written from our own observation, which may also
vary from person to person.
In spite of all the limitations I fully prepare the whole report while conducting the study and
making of it. It has managed to end up well. I believe that I have prepared a quality report on the
Corporate client care division of the system of the National Bank Ltd.
