“Liquidity and Profitability Analysis of First Security Islami Bank Ltd”
1.1 History When money became an accepted medium of exchange, the need arose to keep the money safe. In addition, some people needed to borrow money. These needs led to the development of banks. The earliest banking records, dated around 2000 B.C., indicate that Babylon had a highly developed banking system. Babylonian banks were not unlike the banks of today, except that you might say they had a monopoly. Many years later, in the sixth century B.C., the first private bank emerged. Like today's bank, it accepted for deposit money on which it paid interest. It also lent money to persons who needed the money for worthwhile purposes and who repaid the borrowed funds with interest. By the fourth century B.C., Greece was the dominant nation in the world. Private and city-state-owned banks existed in the outlying lands of the Greek Empire, but only privately owned banks were allowed in Greece. Government to a great extent regulated those banks; however, Rome then became the dominant empire. Under early Roman law, banks could only be privately owned, but law regulated them. With the fall of the Roman Empire, banking became essentially illegal until the third century A.D. By the fourteenth century, when trade routes were being developed, privately owned banks were once again allowed. And by the fifteenth century, banks were needed to advance the huge sums of money required to send out ships to bring back valuable commodities such as spices, silk and gold. At this time in history, banking was big business. 1.2 Banking Scenario in Bangladesh The banking in Bangladesh has passed three decades through different policy environments and comprises central bank at the apex, nationalized commercial banks (NCBs), private commercial banks (PCBs), foreign commercial banks (FCBs) and specialized financial institutions. In the decade of seventies, in an atmosphere of fully regulated banking, the nationalized commercial banks played the active role in intermediation and allocation of credit along with the specialized financial institutions. The decade of the eighties witnessed the active operation of both the NCBs and PCBs (local and foreign) in the banking sector. Before liberation of Bangladesh in 1971, the total banking system was private owned, urban-based and profit oriented. But after the liberation, the Government of Bangladesh nationalized all the banks operating in Bangladesh in 1972, except a few foreign banks branches. It was due to the economic policy of Pakistan
Government that we were having a privatized banking structure, till the independence of Bangladesh in 1971. Therefore, under such a situation, Bangladesh Government had no other alternative but to take up the control and nationalize the enterprises including the banks. Following nationalization, the government also recognized the existing commercial banks into six (6) distinct new banks in the following manner in terms of the Bangladesh Banks (Nationalization) Order, 1972: Existed Banks The National Bank of Pakistan The Bank of Bahawalpur Ltd. The Habib Bank Ltd. The Commerce Bank Ltd.

3.5 Remittance Facilities Customers of a Bank need to transfer his fund or money to anywhere within the country they can do it through the remittance section of the Bank. Remittance section of general Banking deals with only local remittances. Bank normally deals with four types of local remittances. These are: 1. Demand Draft (DD) 2. Telegraphic Transfer (TT) 3. Pay Order (PO) 4. Mail Transfer (MT) 1. Demand Draft o This is an order to pay money, drawn by one office of a Bank upon another office of the same Bank for a sum of money in any place. o Which is outside of the clearinghouse area of issuing branch? o It is a negotiable instrument. o It can be crossed or not. 2. Pay Order (PO) o It is like cash but not exactly cash. o It is an instrument, which is issued from a certain branch of a Bank and must be enchased from the same branch. o Unlike cheque, there is no possibility of dishonoring pay order because before issuing pay order Bank takes out money of the pay order in advance. o It is not a negotiable instrument because it cannot be endorsed or crossed. 3. Telegraphic Transfer (TT) o In case of TT the issuing branch sends a telegraphic message to another branch to pay a certain some of money to a named payee account. o Test code is furnished on the TT message for the protection of it. o Generally for such kind of transfer, payee should have account with the paying Bank; otherwise it is very difficult for the paying Bank to recognize the exact payee. o At customer’s request branch transfers fund to another branch through telex and it is known as the TT, in short. TT facility is available only in that branch having telex facility. 4. Mail Transfer (MT) o Where there is no telex machine or telephone line, then this method is used. o It is the least used technique for transferring fund because it is time consuming and risky because mail may be missed.
o When the transfer of fund from one branch to another takes place by mail but most of the time over telephone, it is called MT. o The process of TT and MT is almost identical, only difference is the media. 3.6 Cash Section Cash is the most liquid asset and it should be dealt very carefully. So this department is really handled with intensive care. This department starts the day with cash in vault. All cash receipts and payments are made through this department. Cash section is a very sensitive organ of the branch and handle with extra care. I was not authorized to deal in this section because of its sensitivity. But I was lucky enough to know the procedures of this section. Operation of this section begins at the start of the Banking hour. Cash officer beings his/her transaction with taking money from the vault, known as the opening cash balance. Vault is kept in a much secured room. Keys to the room are kept under control of cash officer and branch in charge. The amount of opening cash balance is entered into a register. After whole day’s transaction, the surplus money remains in the cash counter is put Bank in the vault and known as the closing balance. Money is received and paid in this section. A. Cash Receipt Depositors deposit money in their account through this section by deposit slip. This section also receives cash from customer for opening pay order, Bank draft, telex transfer etc. This is Bank’s all cash receipts are taken by this department. B. Cash Payment This section accepts the cheques from the depositors for payment in cash. After receiving cheque, first the cheque is scrutinized whether it is a valid one. Cash officer judges the amount both in figure and the word, date of the cheque and signature etc. Then finally authorized officer compares the signature on the cheque with the specimen signature, and check whether the balance in the account is sufficient. If every thing is satisfactory, then payment is made against the cheque. This department is also made payment against various debit vouchers for various miscellaneous expenses of the branch. 3.7 Clearing and Bills Section Local offices branch of FSIBL Bank receives different types of instruments, such as cheque, PO, DD etc. from its customers for collection. It also pays on behalf of its customers for those instruments that come to it through clearinghouse. When instruments of FSIBL Bank are sent for collection or received for payment through clearing house it is called Inter Bank Clearance or IBC. These are treated in a little different manner than instruments of other Banks.When the cheques are presented to a Bank by the other Banks for collection of fund and to credit that into the party’s account, the instrument must be cleared though Bangladesh Bank clearing house. A receiving officer, receiver check by a deposit slips over the counter. A. Inward Clearing When instruments are sent to the Bank via clearinghouse, it entered into the clearing register. The officer checks the instruments thoroughly before it is sent to the computer section for posting. If any kind of error is found in any instrument it is dishonored and sent back with appropriate reason for doing so. Instruments are also dishonored or insufficiency of fund. The information is then sent back to the clearinghouse for taking appropriate action.
The instruments drawn on FSIBL Bank are received from other Banks in the clearinghouse. The amount and numbers of instrument received are entered in the house from the main schedule of respective Banks. The instruments with schedules are arranged branch wise. The instrument sent to branches concerned for clearance. The instruments are sent to the respective departments and the schedules are filled.
B. Outward Clearing After filling the deposit in slip bearer of the instrument deposits the instrument to the respected officer. Upon receiving the instrument the respected officer checks the essential features of the instrument and whether the deposit in slip is filled accordingly or not. Then s/he crosses the instrument with a seal containing Banks and branch’s name, signs the deposit in slip and provides the customer with counter foil of the slip. Then both the instrument and slip is sealed with ‘CLEARING’ seal and date seal contain the date of clearing. An endorsement seal is also sealed on the back of the instrument and the officer endorses it on behalf of FSIBL Bank Motijheel Main Branch. It is then given entry in the clearing out register mentioning the name of the Bank and branch of it, amount of money in deposit in slip, amount of money in the instrument, number of the instrument and date of it. Then the officer separates the instrument from the deposit in slip. Deposit in slip is kept in the Bank and the instrument is sent for clearing. C. Short Collection (SC) FSIBL Bank has many branches, which are not member of clearinghouse. When instruments of these branches come to the branch for collection, different procedures are followed known as short collection. When an instrument arrives for short collection following procedures are applied: The instrument is crossed with crossing seal. Sealed with SC seal on its face. Endorsed by the officer and ‘the account will be credited on realization’ is written on the back of it by the officer. The instrument is then sent to the drawer branch. D. Inward Bills for Collection
All clearing cheques are not received on the counter. Some cheques are received from other source for collection. These cheques are received. From other branch of FSIBL Bank. These are settled by sending Inter Bank Credit Advice (IBCA). From another Bank outside the clearinghouse. These are settled by debiting depositor’s account and sending DD, TT, MT in favor of the sender Bank These cheques are called IBA (Inter Bank Advice)
E. Inward Clearing Bills It refers to the instrument drawn on FSIBL Bank branch received from other Banks in the clearinghouse by the representative.

3.9 Banking Remittance The word “Remittance” means sending of money from one place to another place through post and telegraph. Cash remitting from one place to another is risky. So, bank remits funds on behalf of the customers. By considering the quick transaction and safety, the modes of bank remittance are divided into the three (3) types. These are as follows
Remittance Pay Order (PO)
Demand Draft (DD)
a. Pay order Total amount of pay order (PO)

Short-term usually means one year or less. The degree to which an asset or security can be bought or sold in the market without affecting the asset’s price. Liquidity is characterized by a high level of trading activity. Assets that can by easily bought or sold, are known as liquid assets. It is the ability to convert an asset to cash quickly. Liquidity indicates how quickly an asset can be converted into cash. 4.2 Concept of Profitability Profitability refers to the the ability of an investment, or a company to make a profit after costs, overheads, etc. A company should earn and grow over a period of time profit is the difference between revenue and expenses over a period of time. It is the ultimate outcome of a company and the company will have no future if fails to make sufficient profit. The profitability ratios are calculated to measures the operating efficiency of a company. Profitability is used primarily to describe any ongoing process in which a good or a service would produce more benefits than consequences. Profitability is a term used by corporations and financial experts when they discuss whether to make or sell a good or service. It is an expectation of making more income from sales of the good or service than they spend performing the services or making the goods. Profitability is different from "profit" in that profitability is an idea or expectation while the "profit" is the physical result. 4.3 Liquidity Ratio:
Liquidity ratio measures the ability of a firm to meet the current obligation .A firm should ensure that it does not suffer from lack of liquidity and also does not have execs liquidity, will result in a poor creditworthiness, loss of creditors confidence. The most common ratios which indicate the extent of liquidity or lack of it are as follows: 4.3.1Current Ratio It is the relationship between the current assets and current liabilities and shows the proportion of current assets available per unit of current liability. It is worked out using the following formulaA worthwhile target for the current ratio is 2:1. Firms with inventories which are easily realized, such as food retailers can manage with significantly lower ratios, but there is no excuse of going mush below unless, a firm sees liquid investments as a sound home for its resources. The current ratio cannot be judge except in relation to the needs of a particular commercial situation. Anything between 1:1 and 4:1 could be acceptable. Comparison must be made with industry norms and those competitors whom one respects. In the absence of other data, 2:1 is not unreasonable. 4.3.2 Acid-Test Ratio The Acid-Test or quick ratio establishes the relationship between quick or liquid assets and current liabilities. Quick assets mean current assets excluding inventory. The exclusion of inventory is for the reason that it is not easily and readily convertible into cash. A high quick ratio is an indication that the firm has liquidity and easiness to meet the current obligations. On the other hand, if the quick ratio is low, it is a clear indicator of illiquidity. The quick ratio is a more rigorous and penetrating test of the liquidity position when compared to the current ratio. It is calculated as follows— Quick Assets Refers to Cash, Short-term investments, Net receivables etc. Normally a quick ratio of 1:1 is considered satisfactory. 4.3.3 Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio Current cash debt coverage ratio is calculated by dividing Net cash provided by operating activities by Average current liabilities. So we can ratio these: Net cash provided by operating activities Average current liabilities Activity Ratio Activity ratios are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which the firm managers and utilizes its assets. This ratio indicates the speed with which assets are being converted or turned over into sales thus activity ratio involve a relationship between sales and assets . Assets Turnover Ratio Assets are used to generate sales. A firm can compute net asset turnover by dividing sales by average total assets. So assets turnover will be:
Assets Turnover =
Net Sales Average total assets
Receivable Turnover Receivable turnover ratio is calculated by dividing Net sales by Average trade receivable. So we can ratio these:

Fig: Price Earning Ratio SWOT Analysis The acronym for SWOT stands for
Strength
Opportunity Weakness
Threat
The SWOT analysis comprises of the organization’s internal strength and weaknesses and external opportunities and threats. SWOT analysis gives an organization an insight of what they can do in future and how they can compete with their existing competitors. This tool is very important to identify the current position of the organization relative to others, who are playing in the same field and also used in the strategic analysis of the organization. For my practical observation, I understood the following as the strength, weakness, opportunity and threat of First Security Islami Bank Limited (FSIBL): Strength FSIBL has a bulk of qualified, experienced and dedicated human resources Profit margin ratio has been increasing from period to period. It has excellent reputation in the market Not engaged in unfair business practices Concentrated market The bank has many attractive deposit schemes Well furnished and air conditioned bank Efficient management practice in the bank
FSIBL has the reputation of being the provider of good quality services to its potential customers HRD has tried hard to avoid communication barriers & structural bureaucracies Weakness Liquidity position is not satisfactory Acid-test ratio is not satisfactory Deposit is lower than advance Officers have limited experience and not enough training facilities Long term credit is not sufficient Small market shares in banking business FSIBL has more and high fees and charges compared to its rivals Opportunities Current assets can be enhanced by utilizing enhanced profit Can increase the credit scheme Can increase the advertising of the bank Private Banks become more reliable to the local public To keep these customers by reducing its current fees and charges Investment is a national socio economic activity. And activity in the national economy controls the bank Threat There are many competitors in the market. Competitors have more deposit Ruling government is not conducive in the viewpoint of the bank. Government imposes taxes and VAT on profit and pressures to reduce interest rate The investment in the secondary market by foreign is relatively low Current liabilities must be reduced Liquidity is not satisfactory
Findings of this Study FSIBL started its journey based upon the basic concept of better customer relationship. During my internship program and by the time of when the report was being prepared and from the thesis we have concluded the following findings: (1) In general banking division of FSBL, they follow the traditional banking system. Their entire general banking procedure is not fully computerized. They are not using Data Base Networking in Information Technology (IT) Department. (2) As the account opening form is very complicated and sometimes confusing, it is not easy for customers to fill up. (3) As job description is not clearly known to each and every employee in general banking division, this creates many problems and interpersonal conflicts and reduces the spirit of teamwork. Job Rotation is not adequate in General Banking Division of FSIBL, Mirpur Branch. Thus, monotony incurs among the employees.
(4) Physical appearance of the employees is not up to mark. It is an important dimension of service quality by which customers can perceive the service quality of the bank. (5) The General Banking Division is not well equipped with essential instruments such as pen, pencil, and file board, even calculators. Thus it creates chaos among the employees and also hampers the promptness of services. (6) As First Security Islami Bank Ltd. (FSIBL) has not yet able to arrange online facility for its customers, the Bank has the problem of making quick transaction among its branches because of the same problem. (7) In cash section, there are not so active and sufficient number officers in FSIBL to give service quickly. For this reason, most of the time senior officers and clients of this bank become angry. Thus, at the end of the business day, it’s become very hard to equal the balance. (8) FSIBL Bank has insufficiencies of Authorized Dealer Branch in respect of the total foreign exchange business. Bank has only six branches, which have AD licenses. As a result it total foreign exchange business is very small in respect of total market. (9) FSIBL Bank's numbers of customers are also very small in compared to other banks in the market. This is because of small number of branches.
Recommendations In order to get competitive advantage & to deliver quality service, top management should try to modify the services. For the improvement of the service the following measures should be taken: Improve office atmosphere to give customers better feeling The General Banking Division of FSIBL, Mirpur Branch should be fully computerized Device new and easy format for Account Opening Form Job description should be clear to each and every employees of general banking division Physical appearance of the employees should be improved to attract the customers The general banking division should be well equipped with relevant instruments Online facility should be activated Proper and qualified number of employees should be recruited in cash section of FSBL, Mirpur branch Branches should have a separate section to analyze the financial statement for fining its liquidity, profitability & ownership ratios Ensure proper communication system and maintenance of files & machineries should be modernized
Conclusions Financing is a powerful political, social and economical weapon in the modern world. It plays a prominent role not only in the allocation and distribution of scarce resources but also in the stability and growth of the economy. However financial resources are extremely scarce compared with water, they need to be used with optimum equity and efficiency. The inefficient allocation of financial resources of the conventional banking system is also a logical consequence of that system. There are a number of Private Commercial Banks, Nationalized Commercial Banks and foreign Banks operating their activities in Bangladesh. The FSIBL Bank ltd is one of them.
For the future planning and the successful operation for achieving its prime goal in this current competitive environment this report can be a helpful guideline. Banks always contribute towards the economic development of a country. Compared with other Banks FSIBL Bank is contributing more by investing most of its funds in fruitful projects leading to increase in production of the country. It is obvious that right channel of Banking establish a successful network over the country and increases resources; will be able to play a considerable role in the portfolio of development in developing country like ours. FSIBL Bank playing, it’s leading role in socio-economic development of the country. Since inception FSIBL Bank has been rendering its Banking services with the needs of the nation to cope with the demands of people in the country. By doing many other works for state & society, FSIBL Bank has emerged as the pioneer of playing key role in the country.

Here is the Graphical Representation of the Financial Highlights.
Source: Financial information 2008 to 2009(www.fsiblbd.com/fhighlights.php) Credit Rating Agency of Bangladesh (CRAB) has given BBB 3 (pronounced triple B three) rating in Long Term and “ST-4” rating in Short Term to First Security Islami Bank Limited. Commercial Banks rated ‘BBB' have adequate capacity to meet their financial commitments. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead the Banks into a weakened capacity to meet their financial commitments. BBB rated banks are subject to moderate credit risk. Such banks are considered medium-grade and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. At the same time, banks rated “ST-4” in short term are considered to have below average capacity for timely repayment of obligations. Such capacity is highly susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic, or financial conditions than for obligations in higher categories.
