CHAPTER TWO

INTRODUCTION TO BANKING INDUSTRY


2.1 Meaning of Bank
A bank is a financial institution licensed by a Government. Its primary activities include borrowing and lending money. Many other financial activities were allowed over time. For example, banks are important players in financial markets and offer financial services such as investment funds. In some countries such as Germany, banks have historically owned major stakes in industrial corporations while in other countries such as the United States banks are prohibited from owning non-financial companies. In Japan, banks are usually the nexus of the cross-shareholding entity known as Zaibatsu. In France, bank assurance is prevalent, as most banks offer insurance services (and now real estate services) to their clients.

 The bank is a financial institution, which deals with money. It allows interest on the deposits made and charges interest on the loans granted. The different in the interest rate on lending and deposit, interest rate spread, is the major source of income for the bank. Interest on lending is higher than the deposits. It is an agent of its clients, which remits money, collects incomes and pays expenses on behalf of them. It performs the wide variety of functions, which provide utility to the individual, corporation and general public.

The bank has been defined by different people and institutions in various ways. Some of the definitions are as follows:

According to US Law, “Any institution offering deposit to withdrawal on demands and making loans of commercials or business nature is the bank.”
According to Crowther, “The banker’s business is to offer his own exchange, and thereby creating money.”

Thus the bank is a financial service institution especially concentrating on credit, saving and payments services and performing the widest range of financial functions of any business firm in the economy. So, the bank has become the essential part of modern society, which helps in the development of the overall condition of a country.

2.2 History and Origin of Bank
The word ‘Bank’ has been derived from the Italian word ‘Banco’ which means a place for keeping, lending and exchanging money. The origin of banks can be traced back to ancient Greece and Roman civilization where the people used to store precious metals and coins at the safe places. In England, banking originated with the goldsmith who started to accept the deposits from the merchants. The banking sector started as the public enterprise in 1157 AD when the “Bank of Venice” was founded.
According to Crowther, the modern banking has three ancestors who are the merchants, the goldsmith, and the moneylenders. The merchant banker forms the earliest stage of the evolution of the modern banking. Merchants in those days required the remittance of money from place to place and while trading. This practice gave rise to the origin of ‘hundi’ in those days which are carried out today in the form of drafts, cheques, traveler’s cheques and other means of transferring the money. In England, the original representative of the private banks was the goldsmith. They charged fees against the safekeeping of the gold and silver. Later on the goldsmith started the banking function in 1800 AD.

The development of the commercial banks can be traced back to the 19th century. During this time, the banks turned their attention away from money changing business to many important jobs that come in the wake of industrial progress. The 20th century observed the development of various banking institutions highly specialized and sophisticated, particularly in the USA and the UK. Today organizations like IMF, ADB etc. are influencing the modern banking. Coming nearer, the ‘Bank of Hindustan’ was the first commercial bank of India which was established in the year 1770 by an English Agent in Calcutta.

The modern economic system cannot function without the bank. According to the modern concept, banking is a business that not only deals with borrowings, lending and remittance of funds, but it is also the important instrument for fostering economic growth. Presently there are various types of banks are established, for instance, industrial bank, commercial bank, agricultural bank, joint stock bank, co-operative bank, and development bank with the different purpose.

2.3 Emergence of Banking in Nepal
 The banking sector is one of the oldest service industries in Nepal, which has gone through various stages of development since the time immemorial. Through the modern banking institution has a relatively recent origin in Nepal, some crude bank operations were in practice even in ancient times. In the 11th century, during Malla regime there was an evidence of professional moneylenders and bankers. It is further believed that money lending business, particularly for financing the foreign trade with Tibet, became quite a popular reign of Mallas. But there were inconveniences caused by lack of specific rules and regulations.

This led the then prime Minister Ronoddip (1877-1885) to established Tijarath in Kathmandu, which was a government financial institution supplying credit to the people at 5% rate of interest against the security of gold, Silver and Ornaments. Later Tijarath was replaced by the first Commercial bank, Nepal Bank limited, during the time of Juddha Shamsher which solved most of the problems related to trade and commerce faced during the period.

His Majesty King Tribhuvan inaugurated Nepal Bank Limited on Kartik 30, 1994 B. S. This marked the beginning of an era of formal banking in Nepal. Until then all monetary transactions were carried out by private dealers and trading center.

Nepal has many governments owned as well as private banking ventures. The highest authority on the pyramid is The Nepal Rastra Bank. This is the central bank of Nepal that decides and makes various guidelines for the banking sector of the country. The bank with the largest network in Nepal is The Nepal Bank Ltd. It is closely followed by Rastriya Banijya Bank. Currently, the banking system of Nepal functions under the overall supervision and guidelines of Nepal Rastra bank, which is the central bank in the country. The bank was established in 1956 B.S. under the Nepal Rastra Bank Act 1955. The new Nepal Rastra Bank Act was brought out in 2002 B.S. by replacing the erstwhile Act of 1955. The new Act has provided operational autonomy and independence to the Bank. Banks can be classified into 7 different categories on the basis of their nature. They are Central bank, Commercial banks, Development Bank, Agricultural Bank, Industrial Bank, Rural bank and Exchange Bank. There are altogether 31 commercial banks.

To reflect this dynamic environment, the functions and objectives of the central Bank have been recast by the new NRB Act of 2002, the preamble of which lays down the primary functions of the Bank as:

•    To formulate necessary monetary and foreign exchange policies to maintain   the stability in price and consolidate the balance of payments for sustainable development of the economy of Nepal
•    To develop a secure, healthy and efficient system of payments;
•    To make appropriate supervision of the banking and financial system in order to maintain its stability and foster its healthy development;
•    To further enhance the public confidence in Nepal's entire banking and financial system.

2.4 Commercial Bank
A commercial Banks means the bank which deals in exchanging currency, accepting the deposit, giving loans and doing commercial transactions The concept of bank evolved from the concept of commerce and bank as the financial institution, which deals in accepting deposits of persons and institutions and in giving loans against securities. Commercial bank supplies the financial needs of modern business by various means. Commercial banks offer a wide range of corporate financial services that address the specific needs of private enterprise. They provide the deposit, loan, and trading facilities but will not service investment activities in financial markets. Commercial banks play a number of roles in the financial stability and cash flow of countries private sector. They process payments through a variety of means including telegraphic transfer, internet banking, and electronic funds transfers. Commercial banks issue bank checks and drafts, as well as accept money on term deposits. Commercial banks provide a number of import financial and trading documents such as letters of credit, performance bonds, standby letters of credit, security underwriting commitments and various other types of balance sheet guarantees. They also take responsibility for safeguarding such documents and other valuables by providing safe deposit boxes.

In the previous year’s banks  were viewed as the acceptor of deposits only but this concept has now changed, the modern commercial banks have now been performing for the overall development of trade, commerce, industry, agricultural including priority and deprived sector. The growing banking needs, habits of the people and competitive environment has made the banking sector challenging.
The major activities of commercial banks are as follows:

1.    Accepting Deposits
The major important functions of commercial banks are to accept deposits from customers. Commercial Banks accept deposits from individuals, Partnership firms and colorations and from center government and local governments. The various types of deposits accepted by Commercial banks are as follows:

•    Current or Demand deposit
•    Time deposits
•    Saving deposits

The amount deposited in the bank for fixed period is known as fixed time deposits. The amount deposited under their account cannot be withdrawn before maturity of the time period. The deposits in this account pay higher interest in comparison to other accounts under savings. Similarly in the Current account, customers can draw money times in a day according to their necessities in which the banks does not pay any interest to the amount deposited under this account.

2. Providing Loans
The second important function of a bank is to provide different types of loans. It provides loans in the field of trade, Commerce, and industry and even to agriculture sectors. The principal business of commercial banks is to make loans to qualified borrowers. Bank loans may be classified as loans and advances, Overdraft, cash credit and discounting of bills and so on.

CHAPTER FOUR

ANALYSIS OF ACTIVITIES DONE AND PROBLEM SOLVED


4.1    Introduction to Customer Service Department
Customer Service Department (CSD) is the department which initial test the deals with the customer directly. Being the place of the first contact for most of the customers of the bank, it is one of the most important departments of the bank. Customer service is the process by which an organization delivers its products and services to the customers. This department interacts directly with the customers and the people coming for inquiries about the bank and its financial products. This is the only department that acts as an interface between the customers and other departments of the bank.

4.1.1 Roles and Responsibilities
The roles and responsibilities of CSD are:

Providing general information
CSD provides general information related to various services offered by the bank such as account opening, debit card, interest rates offered by the bank, and all the other queries made by the customers. I had also been involved in the problem solving of the customer related to different matters.

Opening account
I assisted many customer individual as well as firm in the process of opening the different kinds of accounts. I was mainly focused on 2 types of account one is the current account mainly opened by the firms for the business transaction with zero percent interest and the second one is the saving account which are mainly opened by the individuals.

i.    Current account
The current account can be opened in the name of the firm as well in the name of the individual.The procedure to open the current account is somewhat different from the procedure for saving the account. This account needs various documents regarding the existence of the firm, their registration, and other various documents.

Documents required to open a current account are:
•    Name and address of the firm
•    PAN/VAT certificate, minute, stamp of the firm
•    Required documents like the registration, clearance of tax, the nature of the business etc.
•    Two photos of the account opener

ii.    Saving Account
The saving accounts are opened by the individual. It’s easy to open the saving account in comparison to the current account.

Documents required for the saving account:
•    Copy of the citizenship
•    Two photos

Procedure of account opening is given below:
Whether it is the current account or saving account, it has followed certain procedure. The procedures of both the accounts are moreover similar.
•    Filing up of account opening form with the specimen/signature card.
•    Verification of the form by checking whether each attribute required is properly filled or not.
•    In the case of the current account, attributes are the name of the firm or individual, PAN/VAT no, minute, stamp of the firm, etc.
•    In the case of saving the account, attributes are the name of the individual, citizenship no or license no etc.
•    Verification of the form and the documents by the senior authority.
•    Entry of the information into the system.
•    Generation of the account number by the system.
•    Communication of account number to the customers.
•    Filling deposit slip of balance required

Making and Issuing Check Book
Customer request for the new check with an acquisition slip of checkbook (for the old customer) or deposit voucher (for new customer) is accepted. The slip contains the name of the account holder, no of check required and account holder signature. The signature of the customer in the slip is verified and finally the check moves for the process of printing. After printing and binding the check, it goes to senior authority for the signature after this all the check is finally handed over to the customer after that the customer sign on both the slip and register is taken to make a proof that the customer had received the check and cannot claim it again.
In the case of lost checkbooks, the customers should submit the application letter, the account is freeze for the previous check and a new check book is prepared and a certain amount is charged from the customer account for the same.

Issuing bank statement
As the bank statement is a very confidential  which contains detail information about the transaction of the account holder  it should not convey to the wrong person so to make sure that it is in the  right hand I asked for the identification of the person. As far as possible it should be provided to the respective account holder if account holder could not come and had sent a representative I need to ask for the proof with an application letter or sometimes it’s enough to have the signature of the account holder.

Checking balance
Many people come for the balance inquiry in the bank. Through CSD, account holders are provided the information regarding their balances as well as the date of deposit and withdrawal The NBL software facilitates to show the balance of the respective branch only. This all information is provided to the account holder only but if in case the account holder is unable to come then his representative can know the balance by bringing the application written by the account holder with his/her signature if signature matches then only the information regarding balance will be provided.

Issuing bank certificate
Bank certificate is provided to an individual or a company if the person is going abroad. The transactions and balance of the account holder are certified by the bank for the concerned embassy. The balance certificate is the proof that the person has the certain balance on the account of NBL. In the balance certificate, the Nepalese currency which is available in the bank account of the respective customer is converted to the currency where the customer is going. For  eg: if the customer is going to Netherland  then  the Nepalese currency will be converted to the Euro currency and this conversion is done according to the rate of NRB.

Accepting the request of Debit card and issuing
For a debit card, the holder must fill a form with different information like name address, account no, name in the card which may be different from holder own name and a photo. Generally the card is issued after one week. While issuing the card, the customer identification is taken and matched with the account holder if it matches then only the card is issued.The card is issued after the signature in the register. The request to renew the card of the old customer should also be accepted.For renewal of the card, the holder must fill the form as well.
Verification
Customers service department perform the verification functions well. The signature of customers as well as the  account no should be verified before providing any information relating to the account like balances, transaction history as well as before  issuing new cheek, issuing debit card etc.

4.1.2 Challenges
During the working period in this department, I faced many challenges but the biggest challenge was to deal with the customer having different characteristics. In a day, I have to deal with many customers and had to respond their each and every query. Besides the customers in this department I have to perform various tasks in a single day like opening the new account, making balance certificate, issuing checks, providing balance statement, handling calls soon. I could not devote the time in solo activities so there were many chance of doing mistakes.

4.1.3 Problem Solved
The working environment is always full of challenges, but these challenges have to be solved to make the environment a better one. But solving the problem or challenges is not an easy task but I had some of my effort to solve those challenges faced in CSD like dealing differently with the customer according to their nature and solving their problems, like the problem related to converting the old account number to the new one, search for the account number if the holder lost the account no, some holder may forget their signature for this the customer's face is identified by looking to the database and if it matches the customer are asked to  change the signature, some customer are not educated I have solved their problems by filling the information in the form and many more.

4.2    Introduction to Remittance Department
A “remittance transfer” refers to the transfer of money from an individual, usually a person who has emigrated from his/her city or country of origin, to another individual, usually a relative who remains at home. Remittance transfers are typically person-to-person payments and of low monetary value. There are two basic categories of remittance transfers:
•    Domestic Remittance:
Domestic remittance transfers occur when an individual transfers funds from one location to another within the same country.

•    International Remittance:
In contrast, an international remittance transfer involves an immigrant in a new country sending funds to his country of origin, or to individuals (usually family) in a third country. SBLhandles Siddhartha Remit, Reliable Remit, Western Union Money Transfer.

Remittance transfers help its customers to remit money from one place to another through agents appointed by the bank. The people working outside the country can send cash to their relatives through this service of bank. It is a reliable service which helps to send money from one place to another. Remittances contribute to economic growth and to the livelihoods of needy people worldwide. Moreover, remittance transfers can also promote access to financial services for the sender and recipient, thereby increasing financial and social inclusion.

4.2.1 Types of Remittance
On the basis of flow of funds, remittances can be categorized into two major types:

•    Inward Remittance
Inward remittance refers to the flow of money or fund towards the home country of migrant workers from host country where the migrant are working. It is beneficial for the home country where there is the flow of money towards its economy.

•    Outward Remittance
Outward remittance is that where there is the transfer of money or fund from the home country to the host country. It is the outflow of the fund from the home country of the migrant worker to that country where they are migrated. It is not good for any country because there is outflow of fund from its domestic income

4.2.2 Remittance Process
Functionally, most Remittance Service Providers (RSPs) operate in similar ways. In order to send and receive funds, RSPs must be networked. First, they must all have access points or physical locations along the “remittance chain”. At one end of the remittance chain, the “capturing agent” collects the funds from the sender, or remitter and, at the other end of the chain, the “disbursing agent” disburses the funds to the receiver. These access points may be banks, wire transfer offices, money exchanges to give but a few examples, and are the most visible components of the network. Apart from the physical access points, most of the remittance system remains invisible to the public. RSPs must provide a way for the capturing agent to communicate information to the disbursing agent with regards to the transfer that is occurring.

4.2.3 Positive Impacts of Remittance on Development
One positive aspect of remittances is that they represent a flow of income for families in the developing world who might not otherwise receive assistance. Whether it is because of their location or social status, the majority of remittance receivers are the “invisible” poor. Remittances also help to foster a sense of financial democracy. The availability of remitted funds may also indirectly help the communities within developing nations where the money is spent.

Remittances are also a stable form of external finance, and, unlike other forms of private capital inflows, remittances remain stable and often increase during times of economic hardship. It is usually held that the amount of money remitted is inversely related to the strength of the receiver's national economy. That is, remittances increase sharply following economic crises. Remittances, therefore, provide a safety net during sudden economic downturns, financial crises, and unexpected shortfalls.

4.2.4 Negative Aspects and Potential Drawbacks
When the immigrants continuously remit funds to their home countries, the potential exists for the receiving community to become dependent upon those remittances. An abrupt halt in the flow of remittance in such a case can be devastating. The risk of such a calamity is greater in countries like Nepal where the amount of remittances represent a high percentage of that nation's GDP.

Another potential drawback informs the debate as to whether remittance transfers, as a whole, increase or decrease inequality between the “haves” and the “have-nots.” However, most of the criticism that surrounds international remittance transfers is centered on the lack of transparency of formal systems. Depending upon the local economy and the network, a disbursing agent may charge a fee in order to ensure he is compensated for his role in the remittance.

4.2.5 Remittance Service of SBL
At Siddhartha Bank Limited, Bills and Remittance Department provides a wide range of remittance facilities to the remitters not only within the country but also throughout the globe. The bank takes care of the needs of the remitters to receive funds from outside and to transfer funds anywhere in the world through its inward and outward remittance facilities safely and efficiently at the minimum of cost. The primary function of this department is money transfer; comprising of outflow of funds and inflow of funds.

Broadly speaking, SBL provides two types of Remittance facilities:

•    Inward Remittance:
 Inward remittance stands for the transfer of funds from other banks or agents of the Bank. It is the incoming fund or money which is collected by the bank on behalf of the customer and credited in their account. We have to fill remittance documents, verify senders and receivers and transfer amounts. It is done by verifying documents of the receiver (ID cards) and forwarding them for payment.

•    Outward Remittance:
Outward Remittance refers to the payment of money made by the bank to other banks. The money is transferred on the request of the customer by debiting their account or directly receiving cash from them.
Siddhartha Bank handles the inward and outward fund transfer in any part of the globe with the help of its worldwide network of corresponding banks. It operates under the guidelines of Nepal Rastra Bank and provides the following remittance services to its customers through various means:
•    SWIFT Transfers:
SWIFT stands for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication System, which is a reliable communication network speeding up fund transfer and other financial messages. SWIFT is one of the fastest and reliable modes of money transfer. The remitted money is deposited in the bank account of the client from anywhere in the world. In order to transfer money, the remitter must mention the necessary details of the beneficiary and the SWIFT address of the beneficiary’s bank. The SWIFT address of the Siddhartha Bank is ‘SIDDNPKA’.

•    Demand Draft:
Siddhartha Bank can draw drafts on a number of its correspondent banks located all over the world. It has draft drawing arrangement with Standard Chartered Bank which enables the Bank to issue and accept the drafts. SBL honors bank drafts denominated in major currencies like Indian Rupees, United States Dollar, Euro, Great Britain Pound, etc.

•    Manager’s Cheque
It is a cheque drawn by SBL on itself, especially used for payments made by Siddhartha Bank. But it also can be issued by the bank as per the customer request. The beneficiary can send the cheque on collection or through clearing or can deposit it in his or her account with SBL itself. Suppliers accept the manager’s cheque from the party without any hesitation since it is a riskless cheque with no chance of default as the payment is guaranteed by the bank.

•    Fax Transfer
Siddhartha Bank also performs its remittance transaction through fax transfer. Due to the wide Nostro/Vostro relationship, SBL issues the drafts in most of the hard countries like USD, Euro, Great Britain Pounds, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, Danish Kroner, Singapore Dollars, and Japanese Yen.

•    Telegraphic Transfer
The term Telegraphic Transfer or Telex Transfer often abbreviated to TT, is an electronic means of transferring funds overseas. It is the mode of fund transfer between a bank and one of its foreign correspondents to transfer local or foreign currency by telegraph, cable or telex. SBL provides the remittance service to its customers via TT for a fixed transfer charge while sending money.



•    Mail Transfer
When there is no SWIFT transfer or draft arrangement, the remitter may opt for mail transfer. As the name suggests, mail transfer is slow compared to other ways of fund transfer and it is regarded as outdated technology.

4.3    Introduction to Clearing
Clearing system helps to clear the cheques drawn on local banks by the customer. Clearing is the service facilitated by the banks in order to safeguard its customers from the hazards of carrying cash. In the absence of this service, the customer has to carry cash whenever there is the interbank transaction. This increases the individual’s risk of robbery and theft of the cash. Moreover, in case the volume of transaction is huge it is highly inconvenient and unsafe for the customer. Thus, the clearing function enables the customer to carry out the financial activities without the risks associated with handling the cash.

The Clearing service is beneficial for the bank’s perspective as well. It helps in reducing the cash management expenses of the bank by significantly lowering the cash requirement. It is beneficial for both bank and the customer. Thus, it is becoming more popular day by day. It is a system where the member banks in a specified area make settlement of the payment and receipts under the leadership of a common clearing house. Nepal Rastra Bank at Thapathali conducts manual clearing and Nepal Clearing House Limited performs the electronic cheque clearing function in the Kathmandu valley.

4.3.1 Advantages of Clearing
The Bank and Government encourage the people and the institutions to make the payment through cheques and clearing. Payment through cheques can be beneficial because it eliminates all the risk associated with the cash dealing. Clearing is a reliable mode of payment that safeguards the customer from the risks of robbery, theft and fraud. Moreover, the use and requirement to hold cash by the bank becomes less due to the clearing.

4.3.2 Clearing Drawbacks
The main drawback of the clearing process is the delay of the transaction. The cheques that are sent for clearing can only be realized at the end of the day it is sent for clearing. Moreover, the customers may prefer the use of cash to cheque as the cheque have the chance of dishonor.

4.3.3 Types of Clearing
Clearing is basically of two different types. They are:
•    Inward Clearing
Inward Clearing refers to the cheques were drawn on home bank i.e. Siddhartha Bank Limited, that are received from other banks for clearing purpose. Inward clearing of Siddhartha Bank is performed by central clearing department of SBL which is in Hattisar Branch.

•    Outward Clearing
Outward clearing refers to the cheques of other banks deposited by the customer for realization. In order to receive the outward clearing services the customer must have an account in the bank. The cheques received for outward clearing on SBL are sent to head office and new road branch for ECC and manual clearing are sent to central clearing.
The procedure of outward clearing in SBL is as follows:
1.    Clearing starts when the depositor fills a deposit slip and provides it to the Bank for clearing along with the cheque.
2.    At the time of accepting the cheque, the Bank verifies the following things before accepting the cheque:
•    The details in the deposit slip should be correct and should match the cheque.
•    The cheque should not be postdated or stale.
•    The Payees endorsement should be present.
•    The bank on which the cheque is drawn should be the member of the Clearing House.
3.    Once accepted, the department crosses the cheque by putting crossing stamp on the face of the cheque and makes the endorsement on the reverse of the cheque.
4.    The Bank credits the customer account and debits the outward clearing account with the value date of the next working day as the cheque is realized on that day.
5.    Cheques of ECC members and non-ECC members are separated and sent to the main branch with their summary sheet in which staffs put their signature.
6.    The cheques along with the clearing sheet are presented to the respective banks in the clearing house in case of manual clearing and in ECC clearing cheques are scanned and presented for clearing.
7.    The other bank verifies the cheques and informs either the realization or the return of the cheque.
8.    In case the outward cheques are dishonored and returned, the customer’s account is debited and the outward clearing account is credited.

4.3.4 Clearing Cheques Return
Cheque return is the act of dishonoring the inward or outward cheque sent for clearing. The cheques may be dishonored for the following reasons.
1.    Counter handling: It is the instruction given by the bank not to honor a particular cheque issued by him.
2.    Upon receipt of notice of the death of the account holder.
3.    Upon receipt of notice of the insolvency of the account holder.
4.    Upon receipt of notice of the insanity of the account holder.
5.    Defective title
6.    If the cheque is:
a.    A conditional one.
b.    A stale one.
c.    A postdated one.
d.    Mutilated
e.    Not drawn on that particular branch
f.    If the amount in words and figure differs.
g.    If there is no sufficient fund in the account.
h.    If the signature of the customer does not verify.
i.    If the endorsement is irregular.
While dishonoring the cheque, the bank should provide the reason for the dishonor. Thus, the bank returns the clearing cheque along with the return advice with the reason for the cheque return.

CHAPTER FIVE
CONCLUSION AND LESSON LEARNT


5.1 Summary and Conclusion
This report is prepared as per the requirement of eight semester of BBA under TU. This report is based on my personal experiences during the eight weeks period I worked as an intern in Siddhartha Bank Limited, Tinkune.
Siddhartha Bank Limited (SBL) is one of the commercial bank in Nepal which was established in 2002. It only does not provide product and services but even aims at total customer satisfaction by rendering efficient and diversified financial services through improved technology.
As a result SBL, today is found to be one of the leading commercial bank of Nepal providing the full range of commercial banking services through its establish 41 branches across Nepal and 45 ATM terminals and even with branchless banking facilities in remote areas which lacks its branches and ATM terminals. The reason behind its success can also be predicted as a result of new technologies and user-friendly banking software (Oracle Flex cube) is being used by the bank.
CSD and Remittance Department are the most important departments of any bank. CSD is the desk where customers are provided the required information. So, it is often called information desk. The main function of CSD is account opening, account closing, cheque printing and issuing, providing bank statement on request, distributing debit cards and providing customers with the required information on bank’s product and services.
Remittance Department includes the transfer of money from an individual, usually a person who has emigrated from his/her city or country of origin, to another individual, usually a relative who remains at home. Remittance transfers are typically person-to-person payments and of low monetary value.
Remittance Department also includes bills and clearing function in SBL. Clearing section is the main back of office in providing services to the customers of clearing transaction of inward and outward cheques. The clearing section provides different services including information about cheques and reason of dishonor of cheque to the customers.

5.2 Lesson Learnt
During this internship, I learnt different skills which will help in my personal and professional life. Some of the lessons learnt during this internship program are stated below:
1.    Way of Dealing with Customers
The customers are the biggest asset so they should be dealt with good care. In the bank, I came to know that the customers are different in nature so the customers should be dealt differently.

2.    Dealt with Real Situation
The prompt reaction is necessary for some action.so in many situations I learned how to respond to different issues (action).

3.    Way of facing different issues
While working in different department, I had to face different issues relating to customer complain about slow delivery of services, wrong information delegation so this situation had to be dealt with due care to retain the customers

5.3 Gap Observation
It’s totally different to be in the field than what we learn in the theory. In the theoretical knowledge, I learned that banks are free from favoritism and nepotism but these things are still prevalent in the company. I personally observed the different theories learnt cannot be solely be applied in the concerning field. It’s not so easy to convince a customer and offered the service they actually want as I thought it will be. The behaviors of the employees were very nice then I thought and heard from others. I thought that the senior staff will place me in the various departments according to them, but I can choose the department where I want to be and change the department as I like.

 Lastly, during my study, I found out customers are the greatest assets of any banks. The banks are constantly attempting to provide better or quality service to the customer. The behavioral issues are also critical as they make the customer feel satisfied. The unique and tailor made products and services are the targeted to fulfill the diverse needs of the customer. On top of that if they are made comfortable and properly addressed in a friendly way, they will be fully satisfied with the service. This helps the bank to achieve success by creating loyal customers and retaining them.

I have learnt that socializing with the people, dealing with the coworker or a senior, making the working environment cozier and friendlier are equally important in the organization. Informal interaction and communication among the employees help to ease the monotony of the job and create a pleasant working environment. My supervisors not only guided me about the banking, but they also shared their personal experience and facts that helped me get a better picture of the organization.
 I want to conclude that SBL is excellent in term of their services despite with some pros and cons with the issue related to customer satisfaction. SBL is established with the promise to provide excellent services to their customer and improve their customer satisfaction by specializing on the strength, overcoming its weakness and doing their best to retain their valued customers. 

It has been fantastic experience interning at Siddhartha Bank Limited, Tinkune. I got to know every bit of banking activities what has been accessed to me.
