SUB: YOUR APPLICATION FOR A LOAN OF TK 75,000

Dear Sir,

It is our pleasure to find you as one of our very old and valued clients. We hope, you will continue enjoying our personalized services as to your banking needs.

You have applied for a loan of Taka 75,000 to buy one motorcycle under our ‘Consumer Credit Scheme’, which is a very popular collateral-free loan program.

One borrower, under this program, has to submit to us a number of undated cheques of his bank account written in favor of our bank in advance and duly signed, which we are supposed to use for settlement of the loan, if the borrower ever fails to adjust his or her
debts.

Salaried people whose monthly salaries are commensurate with monthly repayment installments of the proposed loan are eligible to avail of this loan facility.

As we have found out, your present monthly basic salary is Taka 16,000 and your takehome pay (after adjustments of cuts by your employer) is Taka 9,000. In no circumstances we can ask you to pay more than TK 3,600 as loan installment. Because, at
least Taka 5,400 (one-third of your basic pay) must be at your hand to defray your own personal financial needs.

If you avail of Taka 75,000 to be adjusted in five years, your monthly installment for adjustment of the loan will be around Taka 6,700, which does not cover by what you are now drawing as your take-home pay. We are extremely sorry to regret your loan application.

SUB: SUPPLEMENTARY BUDGET FOR PURCHASE OF FURNITUR

Dear Sir,

You would be happy to learn that our Branch made a net profit of Taka 14 crore in the last year ending December 31, 2008. We are the leading bank branch in and around Shantinagar and Mogbazar areas and the number of our clients and customers is increasing at exponential rate. On an average, 200 customers visit our branch everyday.

We are facing acute shortage of furniture to cater to our needs both for our clients and our
back office personnel. There has not been any addition of furniture in our branch since its
inception in the year 1998.

Now that OTOBI, a reputed furniture manufacturer in our country, has offered 15 percent discount on office furniture we request to your esteemed authority to allot in favor of our branch a supplementary budget of Taka 3 lac on account of furniture so that we can furnish our branch with adequate furniture befitting our corporate environment.


Thank you so much, sir.

Dear Maroof,

Hope, this letter will find you hale and hearty. How are you doing with your new assignment in the foreign exchange department of your bank branch in Agrabad?
                 
I would advise you to appear in IBB examination to be held in next November. Initially, I had thought the exam would be a tough one. But, believe me, the exam was easy and smooth. I appeared in all the papers of IBB exam Part-I that has just been held.

Among all the subjects I found Accountancy a bit difficult. But I sensed a great relief as I could solve the question on ‘final account’ with some typical adjustments. I am pretty sure I would qualify in all the subjects.

To pass the IBB exam what you have to do is read thoroughly all the question papers of the previous IBB examinations and find out their appropriate answers from notebooks that are available in the market. You may also attend the tutorial classes on all the subjects that are especially arranged by IBB authority in Dhaka.


Keep in touch me and convey my best regards to your parents.


Sincerely,

SUB: OPENING OF F.C. ACCOUNTS IN AMBARKHANA BRANCH

Dear Sir,
As you know, our branch has already achieved all its business targets of the current year seven months ahead of the annual closing due on 31 December 2009.

You would be excited to learn that when in the beginning of this year the number of savings accounts was 1,900 and that of current accounts only 56 our branch can now pride over its present number of accounts, which is 4,500 savings accounts and 1,200 current accounts. Our total deposit as on April 30 stands at Taka 60 crore while our total advance stands at Taka 22 crore.

As everybody knows, Sylhet is famous as the richest abode in Bangladesh for expatriates working abroad. All the branches of all the commercial banks in the entire Sylhet Division are dependent on Sylheti wage earners for building their deposit bases. Those bank branches, which offer the privileges to expatriates to open their F.C. accounts, are gaining the best fruits in their deposit hunting.

We would be immensely benefited if your esteemed authority could arrange permission from the central bank for authorizing our branch at least to open F.C. accounts of Bangladeshi expatriates as a special consideration, if at this moment our branch is not given A.D. license to operate other foreign exchange businesses.


Thank you so much.

SUB: RESCEDULING OF OUR LOAN REPAYMENT INSTALLMENTS

Dear Sir,

We are grateful to your esteemed bank authority for sanctioning a term loan of Taka 25 lac in favor of our firm “Bright Poultry” in 2008. As you will find in your records we paid our loan installments regularly for the last 15 months.

As ill luck would have it, on the ground of epidemic ‘bird flue’ we were compelled by the concerned authority to cull our 3,700 chickens and the government has not yet given any compensation on that account.

In such circumstances it is not possible for us to repay the quarterly installments regularly. The due date of the next installment of Taka 3,75,000 is June 16, 2009. We would be highly obliged if your authority could grant rescheduling the term loan to our firm to be adjusted in nine years instead of in five years so that our quarterly installment stands at not more than Taka 2,00,000.


Thank you so much.

Sincerely,

Dear Sir,

With due respect to your esteemed authority we like to inform you that our Srinagar Branch had earned a net profit of only Taka 2 crore in the last year ending 31 December 2008 though the branch has the potential to make much more profits. This branch is commercially a very important branch for its strategic location.

Almost all the branches of all other commercial banks in Srinagar are doing better business compared to ours and their employees leave their branches at 5 PM after balancing all books of accounts; after office hours the bank employees of those banks visit different shops and trade houses to interact with businessmen for deposit hunting and for recovery of overdue loans. On the other hand all the employees of our Branch have to remain in the office everyday till 7 in the evening to complete their daily works.

The secret behind the success stories of other banks is computerization. All the bank branches in Srinagar, except our branch, are fully computerized. As a result the efficiency of those branches has increased manifold.

We appeal to your esteemed authority to take necessary steps to introduce computerized banking operation in our branch as soon as possible.


Thank you.

Circular No: 234/HBL/CAUTION/09
Wednesday, May 13, 2009

Of late, it is being observed that some of our branches have been sanctioning long-term loans for house building a bit recklessly and without taking cautionary measures as to the
builder’s equity and the income generating capacity of the building being financed.

All concerned are hereby advised to strictly abide by the terms and conditions as stipulated in the Circular Number 19 dated 12 Jan 1987 while evaluating a proposal of house-building loan.

Special attention must be given to the valuation of both landed and building properties keeping in mind that in view of impending recession the present value of real estate in Bangladesh may suddenly plummet as had happened in North America that has sparked
the ongoing financial meltdown all over the world.

Any deviation from instructions as enunciated in the “Loan Manual” and in circulars issued from time to time as to house-building loan will be seriously taken and meted out with stern administrative actions.

Each and every official is instructed to read this circular and put his or her signature in the blank space of this notification.

SUB: MONEY TRANSFER THROUGH MONEYGRAM SYSTEM

Dear Sir,

It is our pleasure to receive your letter enquiring about ‘money-gram’ system of paying money.

MoneyGram is an international company based in the United States having their offices in more than 170 countries all over the world. This company has recently started providing money transfer services in Bangladesh. They provide a service that ensures instant cash from the remitters to the recipients in the shortest possible time.

Our bank has entered into an agreement with MoneyGram International. So, if you have any friend or relation working or living abroad, you may inform him/her that s/he can send money to anybody in Bangladesh through our bank via MoneyGram.

On the strength of a unique ‘password’, conveyed by the remitter to the intending recipient, anybody can get the instant cash over the counter even if the customer has no account with any bank.

You may enjoy this facility of MoneyGram in any shop or office, other than in banks, wherever you will find the logo of MoneyGram, thanks to Internet facility being available in every nook and corner.

Thanks for your query.

SUB: YOUR ENQUIRY ABOUT HOW YOU CAN GET MONEY FROM ABROAD

Dear Madam,

It is our pleasure to receive a letter from you to know how you can get money from abroad through our bank instead of using the MoneyGram system of money transfer.

As you know, our bank has not yet entered into any agreement with MoneyGram. We are also not confident about the efficacy of money transfer through MoneyGram that ensures payment to anybody who can present a ‘password’. The system sounds to us a little alarming, as we are not used to handing remittance money to anybody having no account with our bank.

Our system of remittance through our overseas correspondents is very robust and reliable;
there is no possibility of frauds in our system. We ensure crediting the beneficiaries’ accounts in the shortest possible time. Thanks to SWIFT communication system of our bank, you can receive money from abroad in matter of few minutes. What you can do is
advise your friend or relation living abroad to find out the nearest bank and instruct them to send his/her money through our correspondents.

We are enclosing herewith a brochure where you will find a list of our correspondent banks abroad with their addresses, contact numbers, emails and SWIFT addresses. You may send this brochure to your friend who may send money to your end through our Bank.

Thank you,

Gandaria, Dhaka 1204
Thursday, May 21, 2009

Dear Kamal,

Time flies away. I can’t imagine that I have already spent three years working in the same branch of Agrani Bank at Sadarghat. This explains my pleasure in my banking profession; otherwise passing time would have been a painfully slow memory.

I find myself fortunate to work in Agrani Bank, Sadarghat Branch for a number of reasons. Firstly, the branch is located so near my home at Patla Khan Lane that I don’t need a rickshaw to commute between my office and home. I can take my lunch in the comfort of my house during the lunch break of half an hour. Secondly, my colleagues, especially my Manager, are excellent people. Had I not been in this bank I would have missed a great opportunity to meet rare people with rare hearts among my office colleagues and the customers of my bank.

You know, Kamal, one day I didn’t turn up to my office as I was suffering from fever. To my sheer surprise, I found the whole crowd of my colleagues and a few customers in the living room of my home. They were concerned about my sickness. They brought fruits and flowers. They wished me an early recovery.

Of course, banking as a profession is a little risky. One has to be alert and cautious when
money goes out of the branch. I have been trained in our ‘foundation course’ that a good banker must have a lion’s heart, an eagle’s eyes, a deer’s ears, a monkey’s canny intelligence and an angel’s noble soul.

I have decided to accept banking as my career for my whole life. Let’s see whether I as a
banker can contribute my mites and efforts for the welfare of people.

Please keep in touch with me and feel free to ask me for anything I can offer to you.

Dear Sir,

It is our privilege and pride to get your letter enquiring about the popular Education Loan Program our bank has launched last month. The program is especially tailored to cater to the needs of meritorious students who cannot afford high costs of educational expenses abroad.

You can avail of the loan if you have the following papers ready to submit to us:

01. All the certificates of your previous educations testifying that you are an extraordinarily meritorious student.
02. Evidence that your parents or guardians have valuable properties though they don’t have ready cash to spend.
03. Evidence that you have been qualified to get admission in any foreign university or college of international reputation and that the education you would earn in that institution would be of immense benefit to our country.
04. As the loan is offered at very low interest rate of only 4 percent, we may regret a loan application if the applicant is not so meritorious or if his/her parents are affluent enough to spend cash for their children’s education abroad.

We are always at your service and it would be our pride if students like you can earn knowledge on the strength of a loan given by our Bank, the only state-owned Bank that always rushes to the needy and the poor.



Thanks.

Dear Sir,

Chittagong Diary Products Ltd. is a valued party of our branch. They have been banking with us for the last 12 years.

But, of late, the party is not responding to our repeated requests to pay their installments of a long-term loan. They have already failed to pay three installments and the loan has already been classified.

According to our normal banking practice it is high time we instituted a case against them in the “Ortho Rin Adalat”. But, we are afraid, they will stop banking with us if we file a suit against them.

Can we take any legal measure that may motivate them to adjust the long-due loan? We have sent them our reminders through letters. But, no legal notice has yet been served to them.

Awaiting your early response.

Feasibility on Rahim Glass seeking working capital of Taka one crore

Rahim Glass is the oldest factory in Chittagong manufacturing different kinds of glasses for the last 34 years. They have been maintaining a current account with us for the last three years though their main bank is Sonali Bank wherefrom they had availed of a project loan of Taka 25 crore about five years back.

Their project loan with Sonali Bank is going to be adjusted within this year. For our good relationship with Rahim Glass they have sought Taka One crore as working capital for a
new factory they have recently set up to manufacture bottles for pharmaceutical companies.

The yearly turnover of the group of their industries is more than Taka 200 crore and they have never defaulted with any bank. Besides machinery, which would be hypothecated by us, they would offer additional collateral security worth Taka 5 crore to cover the loan for their proposed working capital.

Considering their business background and reputation, the undersigned highly recommends for sanctioning Taka one crore for Rahim Glass as short-term renewable working capita loan in the form of Cash Credit.

For his kind approval, please.

Solution to the problem of excess liquidity

Almost all the branches of Islami Bank in Chittagong as well as in other parts of Bangladesh, as you know, have been facing excess liquidity as devout Muslims are crowding our bank branches to deposit their savings knowing full well that they would
not earn any interest on their deposits.

This trend of flooding our bank with deposits is observed especially during three months before Hajj as the devout Muslims, who make up their minds to perform Hajj, withdraw their savings from other commercial banks and deposit the same with us just before they set out their journey for Hajj.

Considering this trend we suggest our esteemed management to invest the excess fund with leasing companies for a short period of three months. We have come to learn that the leasing companies offer the best rate. During Hajj period the leasing companies finance the leather processing factories also for a short period on the eve of Eid-ul-Azha.

CAR LOAN FOR SENIOR OFFICIALS

Social Investment Bank Ltd (SIBL) has at present 87 sedans, 25 jeeps and 12 pickups which are being officially used all over Bangladesh. Of these vehicles, 50 sedans are allotted to executives, from Assistant Vice Presidents to Managing Director, for their alltime
use. Each executive has to pay Taka 300 every month against this facility of using the bank’s motor vehicles both for their office and home uses.

The bank has to defray an annual expense of Taka 6 lac for one sedan allotted to each of the executives on account of fuel, driver’s salaries, maintenance, depreciation cost and insurance premium.

It has been observed that families of the executives can’t spare their allotted sedans for any official use of the bank, as they have to use the cars for their domestic purposes day and night.

Considering exorbitant maintenance cost of sedans and also with a view to providing an incentive to the bank officials all other private banks and some of the state-owned banks have already introduced car loans to their executives at bank rate and in some cases at ‘no
interest’ in addition to a monthly allowance for maintenance of cars.

If the board of directors decides to give car loans of Taka 15 lac each to all the executives at an interest rate of 2% along with monthly car allowance of Taka 25 thousand the bank will save 40% expenditure on account of maintenance of sedans now being allotted to the
executives.

If approved, the proposition may be placed at the next meeting of the Board of Directors for their consideration.

SUB: ENHANCED DISBURSEMENT OF SMALL LOANS FOR FLOOD-AFFECTED FARMERS

Dear Sir,

As you know, a SIDR cyclone, more severe than the SIDR of 2007, lashed the entire southern part of Bagerhat district on May 15, 2009 leaving a trail of unimaginable destructions. Crops on the fields have been damaged to the extent of 75 percent. Houses have been traceless. People are spending their days and nights under the open sky. Considering the severity of the cyclone and haplessness of the affected people we appeal to your esteemed authority to approach our Board of Directors with a request to visit the flood-affected regions of Bagerhat district as soon as possible.

We need to convince our bank management to allot special budget of at least Taka 50 crore for immediate disbursement of small loans, each of Taka 25 thousand, under a special program with a view to rehabilitating the cyclone-affected people of this region.


Thank you so much.


Sincerely,

QUARTERLY EVALUATION MEETING HELD IN HEAD OFFICE ON MAY 22, 2009 TO DISCUSS ON THE TOTAL POSITION OF THE BANK IN THE LAST FINANCIAL YEAR AND STRATEGIES ADOPTED TO ACHIEVE BUSINESS GOALS IN THE CURRENT FINANCIAL YEAR.

An evaluation meeting presided over by the bank’s Managing Director Mr. M A Yusuf was held in the Board Room of our Head Office on May 20, 2009 with Mr. Abdul Jalil, Chairman, Board of Directors, attending the meeting as the chief guest. All the executives of the Head Office and all the regional managers of the bank participated in the meeting that lasted for three hours from 1000 HRS in the morning till 1300 HRS in the afternoon. The meeting was followed by a lunch in Hotel Purbani.

In his welcome address Mr. Zainal Abedin, General Manager, Bangladesh Karma Sangsthan Bank (BKSB), presented the overall position of the bank highlighting the following features of the last financial year:

01. All the 45 branches located in different parts of Bangladesh made profits in the financial year ending June 30, 2008.
02. Against annual profit target of Taka 15 crore the bank could make a total net profit of only Taka 3 crore.
03. The bank had a total deposit of Taka 1,000 crore out of which Taka 800 crore was ‘time deposit’ and the rest ‘demand deposit’.
04. The bank had a total advance of Taka 2,900 crore of which only Taka 300 crore was performing assets and the rest non-performing.
05. Out of total number of 350 employees of the bank 130 employees have left their jobs and 26 employees had retired resulting in an acute shortage of manpower.
06. The bank is struggling to invest money as it has been facing tough competition from NGOs, specially from Grameen Bank which is aggressively alluring rural people to bank with them in spite of the fact that their rates of interests on loans are three times more than what BKSB offers.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors in his address as the chief guest expressed his deep concerns at the pitiable condition of the bank and urged the bank management to
take immediate measures to identify the flaws and take remedial measures to correct anomalies, if any, that are responsible.

The Managing Director in his presidential address gave assurance that the bank will surmount all the problems and will be able to achieve its annual target of making a total profit of Taka 25 crore in the current financial year ending 30 June 2009 as BKSB has already taken the following steps:
01. The bank has already ensured a healthy deposit-loan ratio at 60-40 and the provisional profit at the end of April 30, 2009 stood at Taka 20 crore.
02. Performing assets of BKSB now stands at 90 percent.
03. 20 branches have been computerized to solve the shortage of manpower.

The meeting was over by a vote of thanks delivered by the undersigned.

MEETING HELD ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2009 AT PRIME BANK, ISLAMPUR
BRANCH, DHAKA, TO DISCUSS ABOUT SECURITY OF THE BRANCH.             

An emergency meeting was held at 5 PM on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 at the chamber of the Branch Manager to discuss about the existing security arrangements and the measures
that can be taken to streamline the security aspects of the Branch in view of recent robberies being committed in different shops and offices in and around Dhaka city.

Presided over by the Branch Manager the meeting was attended by all the employees of the Branch. Mr. Kamrul Islam, Sub-inspector of Islampur Police Station, attended the meeting as a special guest.

The meeting reviewed the law and order situation in Islampur area and security arrangements of the Branch. There are only two security guards employed by a private security firm. The guards are not smart and intelligent as was reported by the second officer of the Branch; it was also reported that on holidays only one security guard remains inside the branch on mutual arrangements between the guards so that the other guard can visit his family on holidays. More alarming was the fact that the guards who are supposed to remain alert round the clock sleep during night.

The following resolutions were unanimously adopted by the meeting:
01. The guards have to be replaced by four smart and honest security guards who will guard the Branch on alternative roaster so that at least two guards are always found guarding the Branch premises round the clock.
02. The guard on duty must toll a strong copper bell every hour according to clock so that the officers of the branch who reside near the Branch can hear the bell tolling.
03. A CCTV camera attached with a standby computer that can run on battery for at least one hour, in case of power failure, have to be installed to record movement of people inside the Branch round the clock. All files in the hard disk of the computer will have to be kept saved at least for one month before erasing the memory disks.

04. Movement register has to be introduced to track movements of both clients and personnel.

The meeting that lasted for about one and a half hour was over with a vote of thanks delivered by the undersigned.

Head Office management has repeatedly instructed our field offices to watch whether the small loans are being serviced properly or not.

But, statistics emanating from field offices transpire that agricultural loans are getting time-barred at an alarming rate and the managers of rural branches are not at all careful about timely servicing of the loans and proper notices are not being served to defaulting agricultural borrowers.

Our field offices, especially managers of our rural branches, are hereby advised to enlist the updated lists of defaulters and send final notices to the concerned borrowers for repaying their over-due loans by 07 June 2009. Field offices are advised to institute certificate cases against the defaulters after complying necessary formalities.

If any branch is found having more than 10 percent of non-performing agricultural loans stern administrative actions will be taken against the concerned managers and field officials.

All employees are required to read this circular and put their signatures on the blank

Dear Sir,

You would be happy to learn that our Branch made a net profit of Taka 14 crore in the last year ending December 31, 2008. We are the leading bank branch in and around Shantinagar and Mogbazar areas and the number of our clients and customers is increasing at exponential rate. On an average, 200 customers visit our branch everyday.

We are facing acute shortage of furniture to cater to our needs both for our clients and our
back office personnel. There has not been any addition of furniture in our branch since its
inception in the year 1998.

Now that OTOBI, a reputed furniture manufacturer in our country, has offered 15 percent discount on office furniture we request to your esteemed authority to allot in favor of our branch a supplementary budget of Taka 3 lac on account of furniture so that we can furnish our branch with adequate furniture befitting our corporate environment.


Thank you so much, sir.

Dear Maroof,

Hope, this letter will find you hale and hearty. How are you doing with your new assignment in the foreign exchange department of your bank branch in Agrabad?
                 
I would advise you to appear in IBB examination to be held in next November. Initially, I had thought the exam would be a tough one. But, believe me, the exam was easy and smooth. I appeared in all the papers of IBB exam Part-I that has just been held.

Among all the subjects I found Accountancy a bit difficult. But I sensed a great relief as I could solve the question on ‘final account’ with some typical adjustments. I am pretty sure I would qualify in all the subjects.

To pass the IBB exam what you have to do is read thoroughly all the question papers of the previous IBB examinations and find out their appropriate answers from notebooks that are available in the market. You may also attend the tutorial classes on all the subjects that are especially arranged by IBB authority in Dhaka.


Keep in touch me and convey my best regards to your parents.

Dear Sir,
As you know, our branch has already achieved all its business targets of the current year seven months ahead of the annual closing due on 31 December 2009.

You would be excited to learn that when in the beginning of this year the number of savings accounts was 1,900 and that of current accounts only 56 our branch can now pride over its present number of accounts, which is 4,500 savings accounts and 1,200 current accounts. Our total deposit as on April 30 stands at Taka 60 crore while our total advance stands at Taka 22 crore.

As everybody knows, Sylhet is famous as the richest abode in Bangladesh for expatriates working abroad. All the branches of all the commercial banks in the entire Sylhet Division are dependent on Sylheti wage earners for building their deposit bases. Those bank branches, which offer the privileges to expatriates to open their F.C. accounts, are gaining the best fruits in their deposit hunting.

We would be immensely benefited if your esteemed authority could arrange permission from the central bank for authorizing our branch at least to open F.C. accounts of Bangladeshi expatriates as a special consideration, if at this moment our branch is not given A.D. license to operate other foreign exchange businesses.


Thank you so much.

Dear Sir,

We are grateful to your esteemed bank authority for sanctioning a term loan of Taka 25 lac in favor of our firm “Bright Poultry” in 2008. As you will find in your records we paid our loan installments regularly for the last 15 months.

As ill luck would have it, on the ground of epidemic ‘bird flue’ we were compelled by the concerned authority to cull our 3,700 chickens and the government has not yet given any compensation on that account.

In such circumstances it is not possible for us to repay the quarterly installments regularly. The due date of the next installment of Taka 3,75,000 is June 16, 2009. We would be highly obliged if your authority could grant rescheduling the term loan to our firm to be adjusted in nine years instead of in five years so that our quarterly installment stands at not more than Taka 2,00,000.


Thank you so much.

Dear Sir,

With due respect to your esteemed authority we like to inform you that our Srinagar Branch had earned a net profit of only Taka 2 crore in the last year ending 31 December 2008 though the branch has the potential to make much more profits. This branch is commercially a very important branch for its strategic location.

Almost all the branches of all other commercial banks in Srinagar are doing better business compared to ours and their employees leave their branches at 5 PM after balancing all books of accounts; after office hours the bank employees of those banks visit different shops and trade houses to interact with businessmen for deposit hunting and for recovery of overdue loans. On the other hand all the employees of our Branch have to remain in the office everyday till 7 in the evening to complete their daily works.

The secret behind the success stories of other banks is computerization. All the bank branches in Srinagar, except our branch, are fully computerized. As a result the efficiency of those branches has increased manifold.

We appeal to your esteemed authority to take necessary steps to introduce computerized banking operation in our branch as soon as possible.


Thank you.

Of late, it is being observed that some of our branches have been sanctioning long-term loans for house building a bit recklessly and without taking cautionary measures as to the
builder’s equity and the income generating capacity of the building being financed.

All concerned are hereby advised to strictly abide by the terms and conditions as stipulated in the Circular Number 19 dated 12 Jan 1987 while evaluating a proposal of house-building loan.

Special attention must be given to the valuation of both landed and building properties keeping in mind that in view of impending recession the present value of real estate in Bangladesh may suddenly plummet as had happened in North America that has sparked
the ongoing financial meltdown all over the world.

Any deviation from instructions as enunciated in the “Loan Manual” and in circulars issued from time to time as to house-building loan will be seriously taken and meted out with stern administrative actions.

Dear Sir,

It is our pleasure to receive your letter enquiring about ‘money-gram’ system of paying money.

MoneyGram is an international company based in the United States having their offices in more than 170 countries all over the world. This company has recently started providing money transfer services in Bangladesh. They provide a service that ensures instant cash from the remitters to the recipients in the shortest possible time.

Our bank has entered into an agreement with MoneyGram International. So, if you have any friend or relation working or living abroad, you may inform him/her that s/he can send money to anybody in Bangladesh through our bank via MoneyGram.

On the strength of a unique ‘password’, conveyed by the remitter to the intending recipient, anybody can get the instant cash over the counter even if the customer has no account with any bank.

You may enjoy this facility of MoneyGram in any shop or office, other than in banks, wherever you will find the logo of MoneyGram, thanks to Internet facility being available in every nook and corner.

Thanks for your query.

Dear Madam,

It is our pleasure to receive a letter from you to know how you can get money from abroad through our bank instead of using the MoneyGram system of money transfer.

As you know, our bank has not yet entered into any agreement with MoneyGram. We are also not confident about the efficacy of money transfer through MoneyGram that ensures payment to anybody who can present a ‘password’. The system sounds to us a little alarming, as we are not used to handing remittance money to anybody having no account with our bank.

Our system of remittance through our overseas correspondents is very robust and reliable;
there is no possibility of frauds in our system. We ensure crediting the beneficiaries’ accounts in the shortest possible time. Thanks to SWIFT communication system of our bank, you can receive money from abroad in matter of few minutes. What you can do is
advise your friend or relation living abroad to find out the nearest bank and instruct them to send his/her money through our correspondents.

We are enclosing herewith a brochure where you will find a list of our correspondent banks abroad with their addresses, contact numbers, emails and SWIFT addresses. You may send this brochure to your friend who may send money to your end through our Bank.

Dear Kamal,

Time flies away. I can’t imagine that I have already spent three years working in the same branch of Agrani Bank at Sadarghat. This explains my pleasure in my banking profession; otherwise passing time would have been a painfully slow memory.

I find myself fortunate to work in Agrani Bank, Sadarghat Branch for a number of reasons. Firstly, the branch is located so near my home at Patla Khan Lane that I don’t need a rickshaw to commute between my office and home. I can take my lunch in the comfort of my house during the lunch break of half an hour. Secondly, my colleagues, especially my Manager, are excellent people. Had I not been in this bank I would have missed a great opportunity to meet rare people with rare hearts among my office colleagues and the customers of my bank.

You know, Kamal, one day I didn’t turn up to my office as I was suffering from fever. To my sheer surprise, I found the whole crowd of my colleagues and a few customers in the living room of my home. They were concerned about my sickness. They brought fruits and flowers. They wished me an early recovery.

Of course, banking as a profession is a little risky. One has to be alert and cautious when
money goes out of the branch. I have been trained in our ‘foundation course’ that a good banker must have a lion’s heart, an eagle’s eyes, a deer’s ears, a monkey’s canny intelligence and an angel’s noble soul.

I have decided to accept banking as my career for my whole life. Let’s see whether I as a
banker can contribute my mites and efforts for the welfare of people.

Please keep in touch with me and feel free to ask me for anything I can offer to you.

It is our privilege and pride to get your letter enquiring about the popular Education Loan Program our bank has launched last month. The program is especially tailored to cater to the needs of meritorious students who cannot afford high costs of educational expenses abroad.

You can avail of the loan if you have the following papers ready to submit to us:

01. All the certificates of your previous educations testifying that you are an extraordinarily meritorious student.
02. Evidence that your parents or guardians have valuable properties though they don’t have ready cash to spend.
03. Evidence that you have been qualified to get admission in any foreign university or college of international reputation and that the education you would earn in that institution would be of immense benefit to our country.
04. As the loan is offered at very low interest rate of only 4 percent, we may regret a loan application if the applicant is not so meritorious or if his/her parents are affluent enough to spend cash for their children’s education abroad.

We are always at your service and it would be our pride if students like you can earn knowledge on the strength of a loan given by our Bank, the only state-owned Bank that always rushes to the needy and the poor.



Thanks.

SUB: SEEKING LEGAL ADVICE REGARDING A LOAN DEFAULTER

Dear Sir,

Chittagong Diary Products Ltd. is a valued party of our branch. They have been banking with us for the last 12 years.

But, of late, the party is not responding to our repeated requests to pay their installments of a long-term loan. They have already failed to pay three installments and the loan has already been classified.

According to our normal banking practice it is high time we instituted a case against them in the “Ortho Rin Adalat”. But, we are afraid, they will stop banking with us if we file a suit against them.

Can we take any legal measure that may motivate them to adjust the long-due loan? We have sent them our reminders through letters. But, no legal notice has yet been served to them.

Awaiting your early response.

Sincerely,


Maswood Alam Khan
Manager

Feasibility on Rahim Glass seeking working capital of Taka one crore

Rahim Glass is the oldest factory in Chittagong manufacturing different kinds of glasses for the last 34 years. They have been maintaining a current account with us for the last three years though their main bank is Sonali Bank wherefrom they had availed of a project loan of Taka 25 crore about five years back.

Their project loan with Sonali Bank is going to be adjusted within this year. For our good relationship with Rahim Glass they have sought Taka One crore as working capital for a
new factory they have recently set up to manufacture bottles for pharmaceutical companies.

The yearly turnover of the group of their industries is more than Taka 200 crore and they have never defaulted with any bank. Besides machinery, which would be hypothecated by us, they would offer additional collateral security worth Taka 5 crore to cover the loan for their proposed working capital.

Considering their business background and reputation, the undersigned highly recommends for sanctioning Taka one crore for Rahim Glass as short-term renewable working capita loan in the form of Cash Credit.

For his kind approval, please.

Solution to the problem of excess liquidity

Almost all the branches of Islami Bank in Chittagong as well as in other parts of Bangladesh, as you know, have been facing excess liquidity as devout Muslims are crowding our bank branches to deposit their savings knowing full well that they would
not earn any interest on their deposits.

This trend of flooding our bank with deposits is observed especially during three months before Hajj as the devout Muslims, who make up their minds to perform Hajj, withdraw their savings from other commercial banks and deposit the same with us just before they set out their journey for Hajj.

Considering this trend we suggest our esteemed management to invest the excess fund with leasing companies for a short period of three months. We have come to learn that the leasing companies offer the best rate. During Hajj period the leasing companies finance the leather processing factories also for a short period on the eve of Eid-ul-Azha.

CAR LOAN FOR SENIOR OFFICIALS

Social Investment Bank Ltd (SIBL) has at present 87 sedans, 25 jeeps and 12 pickups which are being officially used all over Bangladesh. Of these vehicles, 50 sedans are allotted to executives, from Assistant Vice Presidents to Managing Director, for their alltime
use. Each executive has to pay Taka 300 every month against this facility of using the bank’s motor vehicles both for their office and home uses.

The bank has to defray an annual expense of Taka 6 lac for one sedan allotted to each of the executives on account of fuel, driver’s salaries, maintenance, depreciation cost and insurance premium.

It has been observed that families of the executives can’t spare their allotted sedans for any official use of the bank, as they have to use the cars for their domestic purposes day and night.

Considering exorbitant maintenance cost of sedans and also with a view to providing an incentive to the bank officials all other private banks and some of the state-owned banks have already introduced car loans to their executives at bank rate and in some cases at ‘no
interest’ in addition to a monthly allowance for maintenance of cars.

If the board of directors decides to give car loans of Taka 15 lac each to all the executives at an interest rate of 2% along with monthly car allowance of Taka 25 thousand the bank will save 40% expenditure on account of maintenance of sedans now being allotted to the
executives.

If approved, the proposition may be placed at the next meeting of the Board of Directors for their consideration.

SUB: ENHANCED DISBURSEMENT OF SMALL LOANS FOR FLOOD-AFFECTED FARMERS

Dear Sir,

As you know, a SIDR cyclone, more severe than the SIDR of 2007, lashed the entire southern part of Bagerhat district on May 15, 2009 leaving a trail of unimaginable destructions. Crops on the fields have been damaged to the extent of 75 percent. Houses have been traceless. People are spending their days and nights under the open sky. Considering the severity of the cyclone and haplessness of the affected people we appeal to your esteemed authority to approach our Board of Directors with a request to visit the flood-affected regions of Bagerhat district as soon as possible.

We need to convince our bank management to allot special budget of at least Taka 50 crore for immediate disbursement of small loans, each of Taka 25 thousand, under a special program with a view to rehabilitating the cyclone-affected people of this region.


Thank you so much.


Sincerely,

QUARTERLY EVALUATION MEETING HELD IN HEAD OFFICE ON MAY 22, 2009 TO DISCUSS ON THE TOTAL POSITION OF THE BANK IN THE LAST FINANCIAL YEAR AND STRATEGIES ADOPTED TO ACHIEVE BUSINESS GOALS IN THE CURRENT FINANCIAL YEAR.

An evaluation meeting presided over by the bank’s Managing Director Mr. M A Yusuf was held in the Board Room of our Head Office on May 20, 2009 with Mr. Abdul Jalil, Chairman, Board of Directors, attending the meeting as the chief guest. All the executives of the Head Office and all the regional managers of the bank participated in the meeting that lasted for three hours from 1000 HRS in the morning till 1300 HRS in the afternoon. The meeting was followed by a lunch in Hotel Purbani.

In his welcome address Mr. Zainal Abedin, General Manager, Bangladesh Karma Sangsthan Bank (BKSB), presented the overall position of the bank highlighting the following features of the last financial year:

01. All the 45 branches located in different parts of Bangladesh made profits in the financial year ending June 30, 2008.
02. Against annual profit target of Taka 15 crore the bank could make a total net profit of only Taka 3 crore.
03. The bank had a total deposit of Taka 1,000 crore out of which Taka 800 crore was ‘time deposit’ and the rest ‘demand deposit’.
04. The bank had a total advance of Taka 2,900 crore of which only Taka 300 crore was performing assets and the rest non-performing.
05. Out of total number of 350 employees of the bank 130 employees have left their jobs and 26 employees had retired resulting in an acute shortage of manpower.
06. The bank is struggling to invest money as it has been facing tough competition from NGOs, specially from Grameen Bank which is aggressively alluring rural people to bank with them in spite of the fact that their rates of interests on loans are three times more than what BKSB offers.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors in his address as the chief guest expressed his deep concerns at the pitiable condition of the bank and urged the bank management to
take immediate measures to identify the flaws and take remedial measures to correct anomalies, if any, that are responsible.

The Managing Director in his presidential address gave assurance that the bank will surmount all the problems and will be able to achieve its annual target of making a total profit of Taka 25 crore in the current financial year ending 30 June 2009 as BKSB has already taken the following steps:
01. The bank has already ensured a healthy deposit-loan ratio at 60-40 and the provisional profit at the end of April 30, 2009 stood at Taka 20 crore.
02. Performing assets of BKSB now stands at 90 percent.
03. 20 branches have been computerized to solve the shortage of manpower.

The meeting was over by a vote of thanks delivered by the undersigned.

MEETING HELD ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2009 AT PRIME BANK, ISLAMPUR
BRANCH, DHAKA, TO DISCUSS ABOUT SECURITY OF THE BRANCH.             

An emergency meeting was held at 5 PM on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 at the chamber of the Branch Manager to discuss about the existing security arrangements and the measures
that can be taken to streamline the security aspects of the Branch in view of recent robberies being committed in different shops and offices in and around Dhaka city.

Presided over by the Branch Manager the meeting was attended by all the employees of the Branch. Mr. Kamrul Islam, Sub-inspector of Islampur Police Station, attended the meeting as a special guest.

The meeting reviewed the law and order situation in Islampur area and security arrangements of the Branch. There are only two security guards employed by a private security firm. The guards are not smart and intelligent as was reported by the second officer of the Branch; it was also reported that on holidays only one security guard remains inside the branch on mutual arrangements between the guards so that the other guard can visit his family on holidays. More alarming was the fact that the guards who are supposed to remain alert round the clock sleep during night.

The following resolutions were unanimously adopted by the meeting:
01. The guards have to be replaced by four smart and honest security guards who will guard the Branch on alternative roaster so that at least two guards are always found guarding the Branch premises round the clock.
02. The guard on duty must toll a strong copper bell every hour according to clock so that the officers of the branch who reside near the Branch can hear the bell tolling.
03. A CCTV camera attached with a standby computer that can run on battery for at least one hour, in case of power failure, have to be installed to record movement of people inside the Branch round the clock. All files in the hard disk of the computer will have to be kept saved at least for one month before erasing the memory disks.

04. Movement register has to be introduced to track movements of both clients and personnel.

The meeting that lasted for about one and a half hour was over with a vote of thanks delivered by the undersigned.

Our field offices, especially managers of our rural branches, are hereby advised to enlist the updated lists of defaulters and send final notices to the concerned borrowers for repaying their over-due loans by 07 June 2009. Field offices are advised to institute certificate cases against the defaulters after complying necessary formalities.

If any branch is found having more than 10 percent of non-performing agricultural loans stern administrative actions will be taken against the concerned managers and field officials.
