Limitation of the report
14
  - Access to data regarding different
performance indicators of ABBL and AIBL. - The
report is mainly based on the secondary data
which published by different organization as
annually, half-yearly, monthly, weekly or

limitation of this report. - Due to some legal
obligation and business secrecy banks are
reluctant to provide data. For this reason, the
study limits only on the available published data
and certain degree of formal and informal
interview.
15
- The bankers are very busy with their jobs,
which lead a little time to consult with. -
Finally, some recent data which were needed to
enrich this report but the unwillingness of
executives of the bank due to confidentiality was
made my report limited to data content. - Lack
of my experience and practical experience.

SWOT Analysis of the ABBL Strengths
- Several types of loans and advances with
unique features and facilities which are so
much helpful for enhancing the economic
growth. - Innovator of different new
products and services like they are the
innovator of ATM booth system. - They
demand a standard interest rate on the
loan and advances. - High geographic
coverage. - Availability of online
Banking facility. - Strong and
attractive promotional activities.
20
- Own training institutional which
arrange useful and distinctive training
program time to time. - Duties and
responsibilities of the employees in the RM
and CAM department are clearly define. -
Co-operative and skilled personal, who are
very much specialized in interacting with
clients. (Particularly in RM and CAM
department.) - ABBL employees are one of the
major assets of the company. The employees of
ABBL have a strong sense of commitment towards
organization and also feel proud and a sense of
deluging towards ABBL. The strong organizational
culture of ABBL is the main reason behind this
strength.
21
Weaknesses - Various complex requirements
demanded by the Bank to give the loan. -
This bank mainly provides services to
their big corporate clients. -
Variability of credit card facility for all
customer groups. It provides credit and
facility only for the selected customer
groups. - They have only one branch for
Islamic Banking but it has a great demand
in BD.
22
Opportunities - Possibility to generate
very high note of return as compared to
fixed rate of interest. - An industry
with an endless demand.Name of the
products are so easy to understand so
people easily their loan facilities. -
The use of latest technology in all
spheres of banking, which will increase the
banks efficiency and service quality more.
- Introduction of online banking facility
is ennobling the bank to offer its banking
service beyond its national border. -
Expansion of its existing product services
basket.   
23
Threats - Strong appetite for Islamic
financial services among the people of
Bangladesh, but AB Bank has only one branch of
Islamic Banking. - The upcoming private of
ABBL, it is expected that in the next few years
more commercial banks will emerge. If that
happens the intensity of competitor will rise
further and banks will have to develop strategies
to compete against and win the battle of banks.
- Unfavorable government rules and regulation
regarding banking business. - Now days
different foreign and private banks are also
offering similar type of product with an almost
similar profit margin. So, if all competitors
fight with the same weapon, the natural result is
declining profit.

SWOT Analysis of the AIBLLike other
organizations, AIBL also have its strength,
weakness, opportunities and threats. The
following stated the SWOT of the bankCore
strength(S) - AIBL was adjudged second among
the entire Islamic bank in the country in terms
of service and business. The customer service was
conducted by the general banking. - AIBL is
doing business under the direct supervision of
Bangladesh Bank. - Good asset quality -
Satisfactory business growth - Diversified
product lines - Experienced top management
- Good operating efficiency
31
The following are the core strength of the
Islamic bank for which it is now considered to be
the emerging sector for success If we drew the
differences between the normal banking and the
Islamic bank than it will be clear about the core
strength of Islamic bankOne of the key
strength of the Islamic bank is that it
distributes a significant amount of profit that
they earn by investing different areas. On the
other hand, in case of conventional banking they
provide a fixed amount of return which is called
RIBA or interest that may not be consistent
with the profit positioning of the banks
operations. So in case of conventional banking,
they either sacrifice by bearing losses or they
deprived the depositors by not paying them the
part of profit.
32
As the Islamic bank has to provide a significant
of profit so they have to investment in a proper
way to maximize the return. Because if a
investment becomes classified which will affect
the total profit position of the Bank, that will
become the impediments to the profit of the
depositors. Under conventional banking the
depositors can estimate the income from their
deposit that lead them to expand the area of his
expense which ultimately increase the inflation.
On the other hand, in Islamic bank the
depositors have to wait for the profit, so that
cant increase the tendency to expense
much.Islamic collect deposits by Murabaha Mode
whereas they invest by Murabaha, Mishawaka Mode
that increase the intimacy with the Bank and with
the depositors.
33
Meanwhile islami bank provide credit through
Murabaha, Bai-muajjal etc. Under these systems
banks have full regulatory power thats why it
develops good friendship relation with the
Bankers and the clients.Islami banks fulfill
its administration expenses from the profit of
its investment and from the service charges. So
bank ensures close observation to its investment
so that the investment profit doesnt come down
as well as its service charges goes up.Islami
bank works to the development the socio-economic
and value system of the people that is not seen
in case of normal banking.Islami bank does not
incur losses as it provide the return under the
scientific process where as the conventional
banks provide interest though they incur losses
that ultimately reduce the deposit of the clients.
34
Islami bank includes the profit suspense system
in its investment mode especially in Murabaha and
Bai-Muajjl system. Islami banks are following
this system prior to the Bangladesh Banks FSRP.
Islami banks ensure the utilization of credit
for which the client received the money. For this
reason people have a low scope to use it in other
purpose which ultimately ensures the recovery of
invested money. Beside observation Islami banks
find other sources of investment.Islami banks
invest in the human welfare sector. So Islamic
bank practices mainly welfare banking. These
banks invest only in those sectors where human
welfare can be ensured.
35
If needed islami provide Quard-a-hasana, which
means the way to provide credit without any
profit. So this system provides benefits to the
poor.Islami bank is free from the circle of
interest or Riba. Interest actually has some
bad impact on the society as well as on the
economy. A famous economist James Ken said if
banks dont provide any interest but the people
will deposit to bank. According him the only
reason is safety that the people want from banks.
So banking system without interest is the best
banking practices.The benefit of interest is
mainly upwarding. This means that the interest
that middle class people provide ultimately goes
to the hand of rich people.So it can be said
that the benefits that the Islami has it
significant which give the new era to the banking
sector around the world as well as the AIBL.
36
Major weaknessMIS at primary stageLimited
Branch networkLimited market share Islamic
banking is guided by some principles but it has
some weaknesses, some of the major weaknesses are
discussed in below Lack of profit and loss
sharingProfit Loss Sharing (PLS) dominates the
theoretical literature on Islamic finance.
Broadly, PLS is a contractual arrangement between
two or more transacting parties, which allows
them to pool their resources to invest in a
project to share in profit and loss. Most Islamic
economists contend that PLS based on two major
modes of financing, namely Mudaraba and
Musharaka, is desirable in an Islamic context
wherein reward-sharing is related to risk-sharing
between transacting parties..
37
Almost all theoretical models of Islamic banking
are either based on Mudaraba or Musharaka or
both, but to-date actual practice of Islamic
banking is far from these models. Nearly all
Islamic banks, investment companies, and
investment funds offer trade and project finance
on mark-up 3 , commissioned manufacturing, or on
leasing bases. PLS features marginally in the
practice of Islamic banking and finance.
38
Whatever is the degree of success of individual
Islamic banks, they have so far failed in
adopting PLS-based modes of financing in their
business. Even specialised Islamic firms, like
Mudaraba Companies (MCos) in Pakistan, which are
supposed to be functioning purely on a PLS basis,
have a negligible proportion of their funds
invested on a Mudaraba or Musharaka basis.
According to the International Association of
Islamic Banks, PLS covered less than 20 percent
of investments made by Islamic banks world-wide
(1996. Likewise, the Islamic Development Bank
(IDB) has so far not used PLS in its financial
business except in a few small projects.
39
OpportunitiesAIBL has some opportunities which
are given belowAbout 85 people are Muslims in
our country.Other Islami banks do not cover the
demand of customer as their requirements as
Muslim.People aware of their religious because
people dont know the concept of Islami banking
before.
40
Threat(S)First, PLS contracts are inherently
vulnerable to agency problems as entrepreneurs
have disincentives to put in effort and have
incentives to report less profit as compared to
the self-financing owner-manager. This argument
is based on the idea that parties to a business
transaction will shirk if they are compensated
less than their marginal contribution in the
production process, and as this happens in the
case of PLS, the capitalists hesitate to invest
on PLS basis. 
41
Second, PLS contracts require well-defined
property rights to function efficiently. As in
most Muslim countries property rights are not
properly defined or protected, PLS contracts are
deemed to be less attractive or to fail if
used.Third, Islamic banks and investment
companies have to offer relatively less risky
modes of financing as compared to Mudaraba or
Musharaka in the wake of severe competition from
conventional banks and other financial
institutions, which are already established and
hence more competitive.
42
Fourth, the restrictive role of shareholders
(investors) in management and, hence, the
dichotomous financial structure of PLS contracts
make them non-participatory in nature, which
allows a sleeping partnership. In this way, they
are not sharing contracts in a true sense the
transacting parties share financial resources
without participatory decision-making.Fifth,
equity financing is not feasible for funding
short-term projects due to the ensuing high
degree of risk (i.e., the time diversification
effect of equity). This makes Islamic banks and
other financial institutions rely on some other
debt-like modes, especially mark-up to ensure a
certain degree of liquidity.
43
Sixth, unfair treatment in taxation is also
considered to be a major obstacle in the use of
PLS. While profit is taxed, interest is exempted
on the grounds that it constitutes a cost item.
This legal discrimination and its associated
problem, tax evasion, make PLS less reliable as a
tool for reward sharing.Seventh, secondary
markets for trading in Islamic financial
instruments, particularly Mudaraba and Musharaka,
are non-existent. Consequently, they have so far
failed to effectively mobilise financial
resources.
44
Beside the above mentioned limitations of lack of
profit and loss sharing banks that are operating
as Islamic banking philosophy are also facing the
following limitations 1. Islamic
banks suffer from serious sort of liquidity
problem. Because they dont have specific Shariah
sector on which they can invest their liquid
money. The Bangladesh Bank has not yet introduced
any profit and loss basis bond, though BB is now
discussing to introduce Mudaraba Bond but it is
not yet implemented. The problem of this bond is
that the sector where it will invest is not said.

45
2. Islamic bank deposited 10 cash
amount against the BB requirement of SLR CRR,
on which the Islamic banks has no chance to earn
profit. On the other hand, the conventional
deposited only 4 of CRR on without profit basis.
From the observation it will be clear that
Islamic banks are not getting any profit on 6
on cash deposits. 3. Islamic bank dont
get any profit from the FC Clearing Account while
same is getting by the Islamic banks. It will be
beneficial to provide them on three, seven,
fifteen or one month basis that will recover them
from loss.

contributed towards improvement of assets quality
in the overall.Contribution to the National
ExchequerAB Bank contributed tk.220 crore into
the national exchequer in the form of VAT, Income
Tax and Excise duty.
95
There are many internal strengths and weaknesses
of ABBL. These causes are - Innovator
of different new products and services
like they are the innovator of ATM booth
system. ABBL employees are one of the major
assets of the company. - They demand
a standard interest rate on the loan and
advances. High geographic coverage. Availability
of online Banking facility.Strong and attractive
promotional activities. - The employees
of ABBL have a strong sense of commitment towards
organization and also feel proud and a sense of
deluging towards ABBL.
96
- Reputation of being a provider of
superior quality financial services among its
customers, particularly the RM and CAM department
has obtained most of the clients reliability in
providing different loans and advances. -
Various complex requirements demanded by
the Bank to give the loan. This bank
mainly provides services to their big
corporate clients. - Variability of
credit card facility for all customer groups. It
provides credit and facility only for the
selected customer groups. They have only one
branch for Islamic Banking.
97
Major Findings of AIBL
98
Understanding Customer and BankerThere is a
gap between the customers and bankers. Customers
are unwired about the moral of Islamic banking
system. Sometimes they are not familiars with the
rules of Islamic banking.Management ProblemThe
management of AIBL takes no risk when they give
loans to their clients. They are very slow in
decision making. They sometimes fail to take the
current opportunities for this slow decision
makings process.
99
CentralizationThe Al-Arafah Islami bank is too
much centralized. For each and every work branch
office has to get permission from the head
office. The head office tightly controls each and
every branch. Advertising and
PromotionAdvertising and promotion are the weak
points of Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd. AIBL do not
have any effective marketing activities. Others
banks have betters marketing strategy. 
100
Employees Dissatisfaction Lack of Promotion
longer probationary period is the main causes of
dissatisfaction among the employees.Lengthy
Investment processIn Islamic Banking System Lone
is very lengthy process. But it is lengthier in
AIBL, because branch managers do not have the
power to give lone. For every lone manager have
send proposal to head office. Management does not
want to take risk.Lack of State-of-artTechnology
that AIBL is using for their banking system is
not updated. Now there is some international bank
in Bangladesh, they are very fact and very up
dated. AIBL is their clients because of technology
101
Causes of Poor PerformanceThere are many causes
for Poor Performance of AIBL. These causes are
- Head office of AIBL based operating
decision is one of the major cause of poor
operating performance. In the todays competitive
environment continuous monitoring and instant
response to the market demand are the keys to
success, As the management of the AIBL can not
exercise any financial and decisional power
without the prior approval of the head office, it
sometimes lags behind the competitors in terms of
instant market response.
102
- The bank is interested to invest in the
trading and shop keeper based not to more willing
to invest in the small and cottage industries and
medium and big industries for risk. - Its
advertisement is not target based and adequate.
- Management information System (MIS) AIBL is
not adequate Management information system is
also poor. Accounting and Information System is
newly introducing in on line banking .All these
are preventing the Management of the factory to
take appropriate operating decision. -
AIBLs products are not diversified such ATM
card, Visa Card, Credit Card are not introduced.
103
- Investment Procedure comparatively
difficult than other banks. - Each
branch employees are less as there require.
- Top level managements decision making is
very weak of Al- Arafah Islami Bank Ltd
