CHAPTER TWO

INTRODUCTION TO THE BANKING INDUSTRY


2.1 Introduction of Banking
Bank is a financial institution established by law, which deals with money. In simple word, the bank is an institution engaged in monetary transactions. An organization, usually a corporation, chartered by a state or federal government, which does most or all of the following: receives demand deposits and time deposits, honors instruments drawn on them, and pays interest on them; discounts notes, makes loans, and invests in securities; collects checks, drafts, and notes; certifies depositor's checks; and issues drafts and cashier's checks.

A bank is a financial institution licensed by a government. Its primary activities include borrowing and lending money. Banks helps to carry out the activities related to the economy of the country. Example: - trade, industry, commerce, agriculture. Without a bank, it would be quite impossible for the industrialist to collect fund for investment directly from the general public or from other sources.

The bank is a financial institution, which accepts deposits from the public in different accounts and grant loans to individuals and corporations against their securities. So banks are those institutions that offer the widest range of financial services especially credit, guarantee, saving and payment services.

 Meaning of Bank
The word Bank has been derived from the Italian word ‘Banco’ which means a place for keeping, lending and exchanging money in the marketplace by money lenders of money changers. The banking history began in   1764 A.D. Since then banking in began to prosper. His Majesty’s government in Nepal adopted liberal open economy after restoration of democracy in the country. As a result several commercial banks were established and came up to operation. Bank is the most important financial institution and largest financial intermediaries in the economy. Banks must be identified by the functions they prefer in the economy. Bank collect scattered money from public providing them interest and provide those fund to the deficit unit. Also this collection becomes the sources of bank to invest so, bank is known as the dealer of money.

According to Crowther “The banker’s business is to take the debts of other people to offer his own in exchange and theory create money.”

According to Kindly, “Bank is an establishment as may be s requires and safety met and to which individual’s interest money which is not required by them.”

Summarizing the above definitions, a bank is an institution which accepts deposit from the public and in turn advances loans institution offering deposits subject to with loan demand and making the loan of commercial in business nature is a bank.

2.2 History of Banking
 The concept of banking is not a modern concept. This concept had started to evolve in the brilliant human mind immediately after the humans were able to realize and develop money. Though money had made the human life much easier than before but ancient humans started to realize the complexities that evolution of money had created in their life. So, in order to overcome these complexities and the difficulties that were attached with the benefit of money the concept of banking emerged in the human mind. Earlier the moneylenders and the landlords perform the banking activities as the informal banks but later the activities of these people are formalized and the concept of the bank as an institution had emerged.

Moving towards the word “Bank”, it is thought to be derived from the Italian word “Banco”, Latin word “Bancus” and French word “Banque” because all meant the bench in which the bankers would keep money and its records. The Jews of Lambardy were thought to be the early bankers who transacted third business at the benches in the marketplace and when they were unable to meet their liabilities, the depositors used to break their benches and this tradition had given birth to a banking term “Bankrupt”.The first ancient Bank of the world is supposed to be the Bank Of Venice which was established in 1157 A.D. Following the footsteps of this bank, other two banks were established in 1401 and 1407 named Bank of Barcelona and Bank of Geneva, respectively. The crucial breakthrough in the modern banking history was made in 1694 A.D when the first modern bank “The Bank of England” was established. After the establishment of this first English Bank, Banking sector had experienced various ups and downs but still they persisted and because of that persistence they are now able to exist in this 21st-century world as one of the essential element of human life.

Presently, banks are not only the deposits collecting and loan lending institutions but also the institutions which helps its customers from various ways as per their convenience and ability with full security. They had been developed as the essential service providing institutions in this rushing world. The banks had start affecting the lifestyle of the citizens as well as the economy of the country as well. The recent recession of 2008 is the outcome of the inefficient banking practice and the world had to suffer much only because of the inefficiency and negligence of a single banking sector. Hence, banking had become an important element of the world economy in the present time.

2.3 Evolution of Banking Industry in Nepal
Though the world had already leaped forward towards the modern banking practices but till 1937 A.D, the Nepalese were completely unaware of these developments and still using the money lenders and the rural landlords as the informal banks. This scenario is enough to explain that the banking history of Nepal is not too long. Only after the establishment of Nepal Bank Limited in 1937 as the first Nepali Bank, Nepalese people came to know that there is also another way to get loans except the goldsmiths, and the moneylenders and this can be formalized in the form of institution named Bank.

After the establishment of Nepal Bank Ltd. Nepal started to realize the need of the central bank to control and regulate the banking activities and as the result of that realization, the central Bank of Nepal “Nepal Rastra Bank” was established in 1956 according to Nepal Rastra Bank Act 1955.After the establishment of NRB the government of Nepal started taking the initiatives of establishing the Banks and hence Rastriya Banijya Bank and Agriculture Development Bank  was established in 1966 A.D. and 1968 A.D.

Nepalese banking sector hadn’t experienced much growth till 1980s because of the closed policies of Nepal Government. Till 1980s banking industry hadn’t been opened to the private sectors and the foreign investments. But after 1980s Nepal government liberalized its banking policies and opened the door for the private and foreign sectors. The privatization, tariff adjustments, liberalization of industrial licensing, easing of terms of foreign investments, liberal trade and foreign exchange regime were the motivating factors for the development of Nepalese Banking Sector.

Establishment of Nepal Arab Bank Ltd (now NABIL Bank) in 1984 brought a new sensation in the Nepalese banking industry as it was the first foreign joint venture bank in Nepal. After that, one after another many joint venture banks started to operate in Nepal.

For the purpose of regulation and controlled NRB had divided the depository financial institutions into four classes on the basis of minimum paid up capital requirement and functions. This classification is a unique feature of Nepalese banking industry only and there is no such classification globally. The Nepalese version of classification of depository financial institutions according to the Nepal Rastra Bank and their present number, the central bank of Nepal is shown in table 2.1.

2.4 Types of Bank

When a single bank performs multiple tasks, the efficiency and effectiveness of the work become weak. Hence, different banks are established for different purposes. Basically, the banks have been categorized in various types in accordance with the bank's ultimate purpose, customer's demands and choices, and overall economic development of the nation. Broadly, the banks can be classified into following types:

4.2 Observed Gap
A bachelor in Business Administration is university program that is intended to develop the people of middle-level management level. Regarding this, students are provided with the knowledge regarding different sectors and fields. Other to management, the student is provided with the knowledge of Sociology, Psychology, Business Law, Statistics, Critical Thinking and Decision Making and many more. Interns have better knowledge of these fields, but during the internship period, interns were not provided with the chance to utilize this knowledge in the real world. Interne found out that practical world is totally different from the theoretical base that is being taught in the university studies. Apart from our knowledge, interne came to know about the different methodology and techniques that are being used in the real world.

On the other hand, there is a conception in some of the people that we see in an institution that they think internee sent in the organization are not to learn but to perform their clerical work to ease their work unnecessarily. Interns are being treated as the clerical staff rather than learners.
Apart, from some time, interne are not provided an opportunity to have complete judgment regarding different aspects of the problematic situation, but some of suggestion suggested by interne is also considered which have brought some of the changes in the office procedure. Other than these observed gaps, the total internship program has been so fruitful to set a benchmark that might work as milestone in the further career of interne in different working sector in this real world.
