processing projects and activities. Established as the first private sector bank fully owned by Bangladeshi
entrepreneurs, NBL has been flourishing as the largest private sector Bank with the passage of time after
facing many stress and strain. The members of the board of directors are creative businessmen and
leading industrialists of the country. To keep pace with time and in harmony with national and

The emergence of National Bank Limited in the private sector was an important event in the Banking
arena of Bangladesh. When the nation was in the grip of severe recession, the government took the
farsighted decision to allow the private sector to revive the economy of the country. Several dynamic
entrepreneurs came forward for establishing a bank with a motto to revitalize the economy of the country.
National Bank Limited was born as the first hundred percent Bangladeshi owned Bank in the private

function is to ensure an efficient customer service system to nurture co-ordination among various
functional areas of the bank to structure guidelines in the light of the regulatory bodies
instructions especially those related to core risk management in National Bank Limited and to
ensure compliance of the legal obligations in executing banking business. GB department
provides everyday services to the customers; so it has to perform the core functions of a Bank. It
is kind of the rerouting point for all kinds of transaction of foreign exchange department and
credit department and itself. National Bank Limited gives more or less the same facilities to
their customer in this section like any other banks.
12 | P a g e
SWIFT
National Bank Limited is a member of SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Inter-bank Financial
Telecommunication). SWIFT is a member owned co-operative, which provides a fast and

department of National Bank Limited is to sanction, disburse and monitor any sanctioned loan and

organizations brand name is louder than other organizations, so the switching cost from these
organizations to others may be too large. But almost all the banks have their own cards to provide
service. Having the factors in mind the bargaining power of suppliers is low in this industry.
Internet makes many organizations can use smaller amount of money relatively to provide similar even
same service, and the service charge become smaller. Customer will due to convenience, low cost and
high efficiency to change the service to other organization. Real-time money transfer (i.e. Western
Union), real-time payment (i.e. PayPal), currency exchange (i.e. Xe.com) and insurance, they through
Internet to provide a high quality but low service charge service. Considering the facts mentioned it
would be justified to say that there is a moderate threat of substitute.
PEST Analysis
Political
Though banks are not involved in the politics but the government controls the banks through
Bangladesh Bank. As the government changes the policies also change with it. Governments
recent decision to give permission to eshtablish new banks will have a great impact on the
industry.
Economical
17 | P a g e
Monetary policy is also an important economic factor regarding the issue. As Bangladesh Bank
was flexible in this issue and allowed banks to slightly devaluate taka to get export
competitiveness was understandable. But it needs to be handled with more care as the
undervaluation process has been going out of control recently.
Social
As with the process of development Bangladesh is also moving forward. Now the usage of credit
has increased significantly. Banks are earning more and more revenue each year. On the contrary
the amount of deposit account is slowing down. People are not being able to save money as the
cost of living is increasing rapidly.
Technological
E-Banking is the trend in recent year; they provide similar or same service through internet. ATM
booth has become more popular than ever. These technological advantages have helped
significantly to develop the quality of the services of the banks. But due to the lack of power
supply from the grid the service quality is getting difficult to maintain.

Introduction
The importance of financial intermediaries in the development of the overall economy of a
country cannot be described in short. From the inception of the civilization, banking sector
dominates the economic development of a country by mobilizing the savings of general people
and channeling those savings toward investment and economic development and growth. In our
growing economy there are already a huge number of banks that are currently present in
Bangladesh, and providing more or less similar set of services, but the only thing that
differentiates these banks is how these banks do operate.. National Bank Limited is one of the
most promising baking institutions which are currently operating in Bangladesh. It is a
progressive commercial bank in Private sector and it creates new opportunities for its clients. It
contributes towards formation of national capital, growth of savings and investment in trade,
commerce and industrial sector. In order to stay competitive in the banking industry it is essential
for any company to operate efficiently. National Bank Limited needs to stay focus and prioritize
their customer needs and meet the expected demands of their current customers and future
potential customers.

Hypothesis
From the beginning to end of my research work on Efficiency of National Bank Ltd in its general
banking operations, I will test my hypothesis through various correlated findings and judgments. My
hypothesis will be
Hypothesis (H): National Bank Ltd is Not efficient in its general banking operations.
Hypothesis (H1): National Bank Ltd is efficient in its general banking operations.
Research Methodology
Data collection method:
Data will be collected using the personal-contact as well as telephonic interview.
There will be a structured questionnaire to survey the customers and the questions will not be
open ended questions. All the questions will be answered through using a 1 to 5 scale (5 =
highly agree, 4 = moderately agree, 3 = agree, 2 = moderately disagree, 1 =highly disagree)
because open ended questions takes long time to answer and valuable customers may not
give me sufficient time to give those answers. These may hamper my research work. I will
try to make such questionnaire those will be enough for my research work in a time saving
way.
Survey instrument:
In the study, the researcher will use a questionnaire to collect the data from the sample.
Structured questionnaire will be used in this research. Here the variables will be divided
into two categories:
Independent variable:
23 | P a g e
Data Collection
The study will be conducted on the basis of both the primary and secondary sources of
information.
Primary data:
Primary data will be collected through questionnaire from the customers of National Bank
Bangladesh Limited. Information will be gathered through discussion with the employees of
the bank as well.
Secondary data:
24 | P a g e
Secondary source is collection of data from sources that were used for other study. The
secondary data will be collected from:
The report will be analyzed using statistical software SPSS and Microsoft excel. Then the
data will be interpreted using the techniques such as:
Limitation of time was one of the most important factors that shortened the present
study. Due to time limitation many aspects could not discussed in the present study.
Confidentiality of data was another important barrier that was faced during the conduct
of this study. Every organization has their own secrecy that is not revealed to others. While
25 | P a g e
collecting data on National National Bank Limited , personnel did not disclose enough
information for the sake of confidentiality of the organization.
Rush hours and business was another reason that acts as an obstacle while gathering
data. It was really difficult to communicate with the customers due to the rush hours and
employees really could not help in the data collection because of customer handling pressure.
The findings of the report are based on only Foreign Exchange branch of National Bank
Limited . The results may not reflect the same for other branches of National Bank Limited
Lack of experience in the banking sector has been another main constraint of this scope of
study. It was not within the researchers ability to fully understand and realize all the operations
of the bank and many of the strategies taken by the bank were often obscure to me.
Lack of theoretical knowledge regarding statistical works prevented the researcher from further
analysis and come up with more accurate conclusion.
At the time of conducting the survey, most of the clients were unable to understand the
questionnaire because all the questionnaires were in English. The researcher asked the
questions in Bangla and they just answered.

be because this particular branch is locaetd at Motijhil,which is a commercial area,

ALL the variables motivation,bank services and convenience have positive coefficient. So if these
variables go towards higher order, the efficiency will also have positive turn.
Motivation: For Motivation, the p value is .000 which is less than .05 that mean the null
hypothesis is rejected which is Ho: i= 0 therefore accepting the alternative hypothesis is
H1: i0. The dependent variable Efficiency is affected by the independent variable
Motivation.
Convenience: For Conveience, the p value is .00 which is less than .05 that mean the null
hypothesis is rejected which is Ho: i= 0 therefore accepting the alternative hypothesis is
H1: i0. The dependent variable efficiency is affected by the independent variable
Convenience.
Bank Services: For Bank Services, the p value is .000 which is less than .05 that mean
the null hypothesis is rejected, which is Ho: i= 0. The dependent variable efficiency is n
affected by the independent variable Bank Services.

Major Findings
1. After doing all the statistical analysis, the researcher has summarized it and found that the
the efficiency of National Bank Limited is depended on other independent variables and
those are Motivation,Convenience and Bank Services. Considering the original
hypothesis, which are as follows:
Null Hypothesis, H0 = National Bank Ltd. Is not efficient in its general banking practice.
Alternative Hypothesis, H1 = National Bank Ltd is efficient in its general banking practice
As the research work has proved that efficiency of National Bank Limited is depended on
other independent variables and as the findings from most of the independent variables are
positive, Null hypothesis is rejected and accept the alternative hypothesis H1 = National
Bank is efficient in its general banking practice as true.
2. Customers of the bank are mostly attracted to this bank because they prefer this bank
because of its positive attitude among the societies. Also people find this bank reliable as it
has strong established market in the banking sector.
3. Often customers feel that the National Bank Limited is perfect for their money storage
necessity because they feel secured by the huge size and established image of National
Bank Limited . Since its conception, the bank has experienced immense success in the
industry. Now the bank has grown very large and general people identify this bank as a
reliable place to keep their money. Its large size has earned the belief that the bank will not
default easily. This makes the depositors feel secured.
4. Employees can play a great role in bringing depositors to the bank. If employees can
convince the customers the benefits they will get from the bank, then they can retain those
customers.
5. The ease of reaching to the bank or location convenience also induces customers to the
bank. So how wisely the bank chooses its location has an impact on the depositors. The
bank already has over 167 branches around the country. More branches are going to be
73 | P a g e
opened inside and outside the capital. Availability of the bank branch has made more
depositors come to this bank.
6. Human resource in the banking sector is a powerful weapon. Not all organization can
achieve a great human resource. National Bank Limited already has a large pool of
human resource, which is very loyal to the bank. The employee retention rate is really high
and also their level of commitment is satisfactory.
Recommendations
From the analysis of Banking efficiency against various independent variables, the factors that need
emphasized focus by the bank authority have been identified. The factors that the customers relate as
most important with overall efficiency are the areas where the banking authority must focus to
improve the level of excellence and sustain that level. The most important factors are described
below- Employees should be professional all the time while providing quality & efficient service to
the clients. One of the main reasons in professionalism of employees bring confidence to the
customers. They feel more comfortable to do business with the bank. National Bank Limited . needs
to review its services/products on regular basis and update according to the market demand because it
makes a significant impression on the clients. When National Bank Limited will come with their
innovative product and services then they will be able to enter in to new market segment. Employees
should be trained to improve their performance & put more value on recognizing the clients. If the
employees are trained well enough then they will deliver the services in a quality way that will help to
bring customer satisfaction. There is no designated customer service manager in the foreign exchange
branch of National bank ltd.. Usually the front desk officer acts as the customer service provider.
Though according to the research he is doing a fine job but appointing a full-time customer service
manager would be recommended
Conclusion
At the end it can be conclude with that, efficiency is evident because without efficiency
there is no business. A little inefficiency can send more business away from a company .
74 | P a g e
The constructs investigated in this study all received positive marks by the respondents as
factors that would lead to efficiency. These results lead to suggestions for bank managers
to consider as to how they might improve efficiency in todays competitive banking
environment. This report tries to unravel the level of efficiency with the general banking
department of National Bank limited to exploit the strength and weaknesses. This study
has primarily approached to identify the internal strengths and weaknesses of the general
banking division from different perspectives. Since the results of this study are based on
NBLs consumers perceptions only, future research should investigate the congruence
between consumers and service providers perceptions. This will help the industry to
better understand whether both consumers and banks have the same perceptions
regarding issues relevant to efficiency. While this study found that efficiency alone is not
effective in building customer loyalty, future research may attempt to explore the
unexplored constructs that consumers would value most. For example, are consumers
more concerned about the convenience issue such as location of branches, or the use of
technology? Or are consumers more focused on how bank staff delivers services? Given
the importance of employee competence, future research should also examine the impact
of employees behavior that could affect efficiency. The report has clearly identified the
areas of improvement for the general banking division of National Bank limited. Now,
the more NBL focuses on the improvement of these factors, the better efficiency it can
achieve.
