1.1 Introduction:
With a view to acquiring theoretical knowledge about the practical orientation and
experiences of dynamic business world, it is obligatory to undertake an extensive study to
prepare a term paper by the students of BBA program, IUBAT, who are desirous to the
successful completion of their BBA degree. As part of the program, I am highly proud to join
with Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited as Intern and selecting topic Mobile banking Service
of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited. I was placed in Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited
Head Office for a period of three months.
This internship is an orientation to the entire working activities of, Islami Bank Bangladesh
Limited and a study on an overall banking area. Though I worked there in several
departments, but I had to select an area of study in which I can make detailed research and
present my understanding in the report. This report is an attempt to map out a document,
which clearly explains the existing situation in a comprehensive way regarding the activities
at the IBBL. It is a nice opportunity for the graduates to have a taste of the real business
world before starting their career. Internship, in the modern business world, helps students
demonstrate skills and competence from their supervised experience and in addition, enables
them to demonstrate maturity and acceptable professional, personal, and interpersonal
behavior.
As the classroom discussion alone cannot make a student perfect in handling the real
business situation, therefore it is an opportunity for the students to get accustomed with the
real life situation through this program.

On the other hand, rapid growth of mobile phone users and wider range of the coverage of
Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) has made their delivery channel an important tool of the
trade for extending banking services to the unbanked/banked population.
In order to ensure the access of unbanked people by taking advantage of countrywide mobile

2.25.2 Dutch Bangla Bank: DBBL launched its MFS service branded DBBL Mobile in
March 2011 using a technology platform from an international vendor called Sybase
365.Presently DBBL operates this as a separate platform from its core banking system, but
the two systems can be linked in the future. This platform uses various technologies
(SMS,IVR, USSD) to open accounts and process payments. The main service is a menu
driven service accessed through USSD channels provided under agreements with Airtel,
Banglalink and GP. DBBL also offers an SMS/IVR based service for Citycell subscribers.
DBBL makes its services available through a network of 3,181 agents provided by a
combination of Banglalink, Citycell, Airtel, and UISC8. But the largest number of agents
DBBL acquires itself through third party distributors. In total DBBL reports agents in 61
districts serve a total of 172 thousand accounts. DBBL aspires to acquire 1 million customers
during 2012 and 10 million during 2013. DutchBangla Bank sees the main challenges in
establishing stable commercial relationships to use the wireless networks of MNOs. It also
sees profitability and revenue in the early stages as a major challenge because the revenues
are not sufficient to provide the income necessary to agents to build the business. An
additional challenge is maintaining quality and covering the high cost of KYC with large
numbers of new accounts being opened.

Above two banks are the main competitor that IBBL mcash has to face in the market. So,to
get success IBBL has to beat these two big competitor. IBBL has to convince the customer to

DECISION:
From the above table it is easy to take decision on the superiority of mobile banking services
among three (3) banks. But any bank has not superiority in all subjects. Therefore IBBL
mcash is in strong position in general banking customer base, capital base, security which are
positive sides of IBBL to become successful in the market. Also the cost of mobile banking
service is lower than bKash. But it has slow growth rate of customer and agents due to lack of
promotional activities, lack of contract with main mobile operator.

customers are satisfied. What do the customers think about the mobile banking and mCash.
Mobile banking has revolutionized banking in Bangladesh. It is faster than before, it is more
flexible and less costly, but again it is very important to find out what the customers think
about that because, at the end of the day, everything is for the customers. Success always
comes from a banks happy customers. So what I have tried to find out is clearly what do the
customers think or feel about the service of mobile banking and Mcash on the next research

5.2 Recommendation:
Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited is on third position on Mobile Banking Services in our
country. First position is Dutch Bangla bank and second position is Brac Bank Limited. All
the services are almost same but the customers are different from one another but now a days,
Mobile banking service of IBBL is performing well compared to its competitors and
increasing the customers of mcash. Although the IBBL mcash is providing many facilities,
they need to increase some extra facilities for more popularity.

Page 75
On the basis of the field observations and analysis of the gathering information from the
relevant studies the flowing recommendations may be proposed for the further improvement
of Mobile Banking of IBBL.
1. From the findings, maximum people have agreed with this hypothesis. It is found out
that, there is no major problem with the mcash services. So it can be said that, mobile
banking has made banking easier than before though I believe it hasnt been much
popular because of the lack of good advertising or rather I would say serious
advertising.
2. From the findings, maximum people have agreed with this hypothesis. From the
survey it is clear that maximum people are happy with mobile banking more than
traditional banking because of the flexibility mobile banking has to offer. So it is
pretty clear that not only IBBL but all the banks have reached their goals which is
they achieved the trust of their customers on mobile banking system and now I think
it is time for the next step or goal to look forward to.
3. From the findings on this hypothesis, it is clear that mobile banking is strongly
accepted by the people. Because now people can make transactions and get all
information about their accounts within a second by using mcash. There is no chance
of getting hacked in Mcash services which may occur in the internet banking. Though,
the IBBL authority should always keep their eyes and ears open to protect their clients
from any potential threat.
4. From the findings on this hypothesis, it is also clear that now people are saving more
than before. It is simply because of the fact that mobile banking has reached to more
and more new people. Though it has not reached in some of the remote areas of our
country. So I think authority should give proper publicity and advertisement to reach
to those remote areas.
5. Mobile banking is a perfect way to improve customer service. Most of the middle
class & lower class people use mobile at the present time. They need appropriate
service by the mobile operators. Authority can create more customer care and also
create more customer care employees by training system.
Page 76
6. From the findings, clients are comfortable doing the financial transactions because it
is safe and secured So the authority should keep an eye out on it so that it stays that
way.
7. From the findings, maximum respondent have agreed more than disagreed that they
are using mobile banking to pay the utility bills. People now do not need to go to the
banks and wait on the long serials to pay their bills, they can do it anywhere by using
phones. The authority should encourage their clients on using mcash and advertise
more on it.
The bank also needs to provide more facilities to the customer to increase its popularity.
They can use the popularity to use on their customers to use mcash services. Islami bank
ATM booths should be increased more on the other hand.
5.3 Conclusion:
For service providers, Mobile banking offers the next surest way to achieve growth.
Countries like Bangladesh where mobile penetration is nearing saturation; mobile banking is
helping service increase revenue from the now static subscriber base. For the fact is that one
day, in most of our country emerging markets, more people will use mobile Banking service
than use traditional banking service. Businesses that are based on mobile financial serviced
will thus be a natural fit for these economies. What is more, there is no need to wait for the
next generation mobile networks; these businesses can be built by using today's technology.
But to capture this significant opportunity, financial firms and telecommunications companies
will have to partnership with one another and, possibly, with merchants and retail chains
as well. Mobile banking is suspended to become the big killer mobile application arena.
However, banks are going with mobile the first time needs to step the path cautiously. The
biggest decision that banks need to make is the channel that they will support their services
on. Mobile banking through an SMS based service would require the lowest amount of effort,
in terms of cost and time, but will not be able to support the full breath of transaction-based

services. However, in markets like India where a bulk of the mobile population users' phones
can only support SMS based services, this might be the only option left. On the other hand a
market heavily segmented by the type and complexity of mobile phone usage might be good
place to roll of WAP based mobile applications. According to the Gartner Group, mobile
banking services will have to support a minimum of 50 different device profiles in the near
future.
Islami Bank Bangladesh limited is pioneer of Mobile Banking in Bangladesh and it has a lot
of possibility to reach customers door as well as banking in the handoff customers.

Remarks:
Sharia Banking or Islamic Finance overarching principle is that all forms of interest are
forbidden. The Islamic financial model works on the basis of risk sharing. The customer and
the bank share the risk of any investment on agreed terms, and divide any profits between
them. The main categories within Islamic finance are: Ijara, Ijara-wa-iqtina, Mudaraba,
Murabaha and Musharaka.
