Executive Summary
Banking system of Bangladesh has gone through three phases of development- Nationalization, privatization & lastly Financial Sector Reform. have Tried to make acquainted myself with activities of the branch in this report.
Dhaka Bank Limited is a leading, 2nd generation Bank in Bangladesh. It started its operation as scheduled Bank with effect from July 5, 1995 with their first branch at Adamjee Court, 115-120, Motijheel C/A, Dhaka.During that time it also opened another branch at North South Road, Bangshal. Finally it started its operation from December 6, 1995. With a firm commitment to achieve an excellence in service, DBL has always tried for creating wide array of banking solution & offer supervision value proposition.
The year 2004 was characterized by global uncertainty arising from both political & economic turbulence in different parts of the world. Their operating profit was Tk. 852 million, 35% higher than that of the year 2003. Banks deposit shot up by 34% to Tk. 22,575 million excluding call deposits & loans & advances rose by 28% & stood at Tk. 16,539 million as on December 31, 2004. By the end of 2004, most of the branches & Head Office had been migrated to the sophisticated system of Flexcube from the old transactional technology offering online & anywhere banking. They introduce Credit card, ATM, Car loan, Scheme, Vacation loan etc. & currently exploring their diversified products like Inward foreign currency, Home loan, Deposit pension scheme etc. DBL Have launched two Islamic Shariah based branches at Dhaka & Chittagong.
Main focus of this report is performance of Islamic Banking Branch of Dhaka Bank Limited. Within two years performance of their branches are too good that is beyond expectation. DBL, IBB is now working smoothly on Islamic Banking system & facing practical different type of problems. So the Bank can get practical knowledge about the Islamic Banking system. It is easy to say but the work was not at all an easy work. It was really a difficult work. Though the work has been completed successfully by untiring effort of the policy makers, all executives & officers of the Bank.It is very important to transform all conventional banks in a country into Islamic banking if they want to conduct Islamic Banking properly on the basis of Islamic Shariah.

Findings
I found the following problems to DBL, IBB:
The objective of DBL, IBB is to administer every things according to Islamic
Shariah but in case of investment by Mudarabah mode the profit is charged
earlier though the client may not get profit from his/her but he/she will have to
pay the fixed rate of profit which is similar to interest based banking system.
There are two & most important investment mechanisms of Islamic Banking
system as Mudarabah and Musharakah but DBL, IBB still does not use the
Partnership mode i.e. Musharakah but it was mention in the feathers of the
bank that investment of the bank is done on the basis of Partnership or
Musharakah.
The bank is not free from interest because it has to maintain account (Nostro)
with foreign banks which are not Islamic Bank.
It has also an account with Bangladesh Bank that brings huge amount of
interest every year.
Recommendation
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.
In our country it is important to make investment in information technology
followed by human resources with necessary training and sales and distribution.
To provide quality service to the customer it is necessary to have a trained team
in the organization or an institution. For this reason the bank should recruit more fresh, bright and energetic persons such as MBA, BBA, MBM etc. professional degree holder.
Only one for more branch never fulfill the requirements whole nations that needs
more branches . that’s why as soon as possible the bank should launch more branches in Dhaka city as well as in other cities of the country.
Now a day’s world is going on very fast. Now most of the banks provide online
customer service system. Employees require more training to better understand online banking system .
One of the business strategies is promotion. Successful business depends how
they can promote their products or services to the customer. In this connection to improve the business status bank should introduce more promotional programs.
In general banking department it is necessary to implement modern banking
process instead of traditional system. It should be more computerized.
Delegation of authority should be made enough to make the speed of providing
service fast.
Musharakah & Mudarabah mode of investment should be utilized as soon as
possible. Though Mudarabah mode is used but its proper utilization is necessary.
Employees require more training to better understand the Islamic economy.
Conclusion
Lots of new commercial bank has been established in last few years and these banks have made this banking sector very competitive. So, now banks have to organize their operation and do their operations according to the need of the market. Banking sectors no more depends on a traditional method of banking. In this competitive world this sector has trenched its wings wide enough to cover any kind of financial services anywhere in this world. The major task for banks, to survive in this competitive environment is by managing its assets and liabilities in an efficient way.
As an internee student in IBB of DBL, I have truly enjoyed my internship from the learning and experience viewpoint I am confident that three month internship program at Dhaka Bank Limited will definitely help me to realize career in the job market.
During the course of my practical orientation I have tried to learn the practical banking to realize my theoretical knowledge, what I have gathered and going to acquire from various courses. It is great pleasure for me to have practical exposure of DBL, because without practical exposure it couldn’t be possible for me to compare the theory with practice.
Through the departments and sections are covered in the internship program, it is not possible to go to the depth of each activities of branch because of time limitation. So objectives of the internship program have not been fulfilled with complete satisfaction. However, highest effort has been given to achieve the objectives of the internship program.
As Islamic banking is a new phenomenon on our country, it is important to examine the prospects of Islamic banking branch of DBL. Although one and half year already has passed, the performance of Islamic banking branch is highly attractive. And it is expected that in near future they shall carry forth their proud tradition of excellence in banking.
Not only Dhaka Bank opens its Islamic Banking branch, rather many other traditional banks now offer Islamic banking branches like Southeast Bank, Prime Bank, Jamuna Bank, Premier bank and in association with Islamic banking branch there exist Islamic bank like Islamic Bank Bangladesh, Shahajalal Islamic Bank, Exim Bank, Al-Arafah Islamic Bank, Social Investment Bank etc. So Islamic Banking Branch of Dhaka Bank
limited requires increasing their service competitively so that they can survive in the market.
So in conclusion it can be said that every organization has its positive as well as negatives & in case of DBL existence of the later one is less than the earlier one & as the management is determine to reach the pick of success it seems that in near future the negatives will be eliminated. Ten years is a very short span of time & the organization, which can establish itself as one of the most reputed private commercial Bank in the country within the short period deserves special credit with their able leaders DBL will reach the highest level of success very shortly. I wish the bank all success prosperity in their field.
