CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Customer service department of the banking institution devotes its function towards
the satisfaction of the customers. It is oriented towards customers and basically
manages all the customers’ queries and if possible tries to solve at the front desk of
the organization. In this department the major tasks involved are videlicet: Dealing
with customers, opening and closing of accounts, handling incoming calls, providing
accounts statement, issuing check books, providing Debit Cards to the customers,
maintaining record of ATM card holders, providing e-banking facility, etc. Customer
service department deals with handing the various customers’ queries, and their
grievances. It also aims at gathering feedback about our banking financial services
and promptly responding to their raised problems. The customer service department
plays an important role in the survival and continued functioning of any company.
Although there are many different roles that a customer service department plays, two
major functions of the department that affect an entire business include public
relations and the creation of a positive company culture. The importance of quality
service is now well accepted, and service-based organizations are addressing
increasing attention to service excellence in their corporate strategy and planning, in
the anticipation of achieving a differential advantage over their competitors (Vincent
& Mitchell, 1990). The tasks and activities of customer service representatives are
directly related to these two major functions.
Public relations
opportunities and to face the threats. In its totality, internship program teaches us the
corporate culture, develops our public relationship skills, makes us competent and
provides us an excellent working experience. Internship programs help educational
institutions to get reputation by strengthening their bonds with business world,
availability of research grants, receive positive feedback from corporates on their
curriculum and increase job opportunities for their students (Beard, 1998).
The purpose of the study statement helps the subject assess the importance of the
study relative to individual values. The main aim of study is to write a report about
the experiences and knowledge that had gain during the internship period. The
specific objectives of the report can be shortlisted as follows:
1. To know about the general activities that are undertaken in customer service desk.
1.3 Methodology
Methodology refers to the various sequential steps in the study. A systematic method
is required to pick out an actual result for any type of study. This report is based on
secondary sources of data.
Primary source
The primary data are collected from different methods like observations, interaction
and communication with the customers and staffs and also through guidelines from
staffs of different departments.
Secondary source
The secondary data are collected from website of the bank, brochures, published
reports and other related websites.

1.3.2 Placement/Duration
The internee took a recommendation letter from the campus, and submitted it to the
branch manager of ADBL with a handwritten application along with curriculum vitae.
The ADBL approved the internee’s request to join the bank for the internship
programme and provide placement with the date to join the bank for the same.
During the eight week’s internship period, the internee was placed in the customer
service department. All the factors such as discipline, attendance, regularity, interest
towards the work, sincerity, behaviour, and the efforts that I made to understand the
banking functions were closely monitored.
CHAPTER II
The bank is a financial institution which deals with cash inflows, outflows, credits and
lends money to the needy, accepts the deposits and acts as intermediary between the
lenders and the borrowers (Prabhavathi & G, 2018). It is a financial institution which
deals with the monetary transactions. The major function of the bank is to accept
deposits and providing loans. The bank attract deposits from various investors by
providing certain rate of interest, and investing the accumulated funds as loans to
others who are in need of fund by charging slightly higher rate of interest than they
provide to the depositors. Bank acts as an intermediary who bridges the gap between
the savers of fund and the users of fund. Basically, banks are those financial
organization that offer the widest range of financial services especially credit, saving
and payment services and perform the widest range of financial functions of any
business firm in the economy.
According to Commercial Bank Act 2031 B.S, A commercial bank refers to such type
of bank which operates currency exchange transactions, accepts deposits, advances
loans, performs dealing relating to commerce except the banks which been specified
for the cooperative, agricultural, industry of the similar other specific objective.
A bank generates a profit from the differential between the level of interest it pays for
deposits and other sources of funds, and the level of interest it charges in its lending
activities. This difference is referred to as the spread between the cost of funds and
the loan interest rate. Historically, profitability from lending activities has been
cyclical and dependent on the needs and strengths of loan customers. In recent
history, investors have demanded a more stable revenue stream and banks have
therefore placed more emphasis on transaction fees, primarily loan fees but also
including service charges on an array of deposit activities and ancillary services
(international banking, foreign exchange, insurance, investments, wire transfers, etc.).
Lending activities, however, still provide the bulk of a commercial bank's income. As
the financial system plays an important role in modern economics and the
5
intermediary function of the banking industry has a core role in influencing economic
growth (Klein, 1971).Central banks are normally government owned banks, which are
the authorized body to supervise commercial banks, or controlling the cash interest
rate. They generally provide liquidity to the banking system and act as Lender of last
resort in event of a crisis. Nepal Rastra Bank e central bank of Nepal.
The banking industry that we have today is the outcome of a series of stepwise
development that have occurred in the process of its evolution. The banking sector
went through the process of evolution due to the unceasing demand for the
improvements in service delivery and the increasing need and expectations of
customers as well the political reforms that have taken place over the decades. The
banking sector is the section of the economy devoted to the holding of financial assets
for others, investing those financial assets as leverage to create more wealth and the
regulation of those activities by government agencies (Hall, 2018).
The early bankers are the Lombard who was originally from the plains of Lombardy
of Northern Italy. They introduced banking practice in England. These Lombard were
eventually bankrupted because they lent money to kings who did not repay them.
After the Lombard, the goldsmiths practiced banking as a sideline to their normal
activities in the bullion and jewelers fields. The early goldsmiths used to have large
vaults, which were soundly built and heavily guarded. The person who deposited his
surplus funds with the goldsmith became a 'depositor' and naturally paid for the
privilege of having his money defended this way. These payments were called 'Bank
Charge'. The depositors who needed funds to pay wages or debts, could call at the
bank and collect such sums as required.
The very first banks were probably the religious temples of the ancient world where
gold was stored. Their owners justly felt that temples were the safest places to store
their gold as they were constantly attended, well built and were sacred, thus
dissuading the would-be thieves. There are existing records of loans from the
18th century BC in Babylon that were made by temple priests to merchants. Ancient
Greece holds further evidence of banking. Greek temples as well as private and civic
Greece holds further evidence of banking. Greek temples as well as private and civic
entities conducted financial transactions such as loans, deposit, currency exchange,
6
Ancient Rome perfected the administrative aspect of banking and saw greater
regulation of financial institution and financial practices. Charging interest on loans
and paying interest on deposits became more highly developed and competitive. The
bank of Venice, established in 1157A.D is supposed to be the ancient bank.
Originally, it was not a bank in real sense being simply an office for the transfer of the
public debt. Subsequently, Bank of Barcelona (1401) and Bank of Geneva (1407)
were established. The ‘Bank of England’, first English Bank, was established in 1694
A.D. The ancestors of modern day banks have been attributed to the merchants, the
goldsmiths and the moneylenders. Thus, todays bank are competitive and customer
too. Bank customers’ perceptions of the level of reliability, responsiveness, security
and reputation is significantly higher than those of conventional banks. (Saleh, Quazi,
& Gaur, 2017)
The history of banking in Nepal is believed to be started from the time of Prime
Minister Ranoddip Singh in 1877 A.D. He established TejarathaAdda to provide
credit facilities to the general public at a very concessional interest rate. The Tejarath
Adda disbursed credit to the people on the basis of collateral of gold and silver. All
employees of government were also eligible for this type of loan, which was settled
by deducting from their salary. Tejaratha Adda extended credit only; it did not accept
deposits from the public.
But the modern banking started with the establishment of Nepal bank limited in 1994
B.S which was founded by Judda Shumsher. It was the first bank of Nepal. Its main
function was to provide loans and accept deposits. Similarly, Nepal Rastra Bank was
established as a central bank in 2013 B.S. The bank was completely government
ownership bank and it also started to issues notes since 2016 B.S. Additionally,
former Industrial development center established in 2013 was converted into Nepal
Industrial Development Centre in 2016 to support industrial development and
Agricultural Development Bank was established in 2024 B.S. to support agricultural

Currently, all together 20 commercial banks are operating in Nepal. Among them,
some of the commercial banks have meet the capital requirement prescribed by NRB
some are not. Some have higher profitability some have low profitability. All the
commercial banks in Nepal is in Annexure A.
Paid up capital is the money provided by the shareholder into the company since the
establishment. It includes the initial fund accumulated from the shareholder plus
additional capital injected through right/bonus shares or FPO as the company moves
forward. Higher the capital greater the financial strength and vice versa. As per
investopaper Global IME bank has the highest paid up capital of Rs 35.77 Arba
followed by NIMB bank has Rs 34.12 Arba and the least paid up capital bank is
Standard Chartered Bank with paid up capital of Rs 9.42 Arba. Paid up capital of all
commercial bank is in Annexure B.
In fiscal year 2079/80 total of Rs 50.04 Kharba has been collected by all 20 the
commercial banks .Among which Global IME Bank had collected highest amount of
deposit form the customer that is Rs 426.33 Arba followed by Nabil Bank with
deposit amount of Rs 396.84 Arba. And the least deposit is collected by Standard
Chartered Bank Rs 117.5 Arba. Similarly in fiscal year 2079/80 Global IME Bank has
provided the highest amount of loan that is Rs. 356.39 Arba and Standard Chartered
Bank as least amount of loan that is Rs. 77.86 Arba. Deposits and loan of the
commercial bank is in Annexure C.
The net profit of all the commercial banks of Nepal in fiscal year 2079/80was Rs.
70.17 Arba where Nabil Bank lead the chart with net income of Rs. 7.52 Arba and
8
Machhapuchchhre Bank as least net profitable organization with net income of Rs.
1.854 Arba. Total profit of other commercial bank is in Annexure C
Since, Nepal is the developing country, banking and financing sector also evolving
itself in a quite good pace. There are various opportunities and challenges for banking
sector in Nepal. Some of them are mentioned below:
2.5.1 Opportunities
Some of the opportunities that the commercial banks can get in Nepal to maximize
their net income are:
2.5.1.1 Internationalization
In Nepal, there is large number of banking institutions including joint venture bank of
international bank, the competition in the financial market is very tough. So, the
decision taken by the NRB for increasing paid up capital is to make the banks and
financial institutions international standard and obtain the international competencies.
With the advent of political stability in Nepal, the doors have been opened to safe and
lucrative investment opportunities. The commercial banks can disperse their fund and
invest the fund in various productive sector.
With rapid change in technology, the commercial banks can gain first mover’s
advantage in the field and capture large number of customers. If they are able to
utilize this resource to their benefit, they can ensure premium customer service,
ensuring customer loyalty and thus, profitability.
There are still large numbers of people out of the door from banking services. As half
of the total area of nation is still out of the reach of banking service. It provides the
great opportunity for banking institution to expand its banking services across the
country.
9
2.5.2 Challenges
Besides these opportunities, there are a number of challenges which might be face by
every banking institution.
Nepal Rastra Bank, the central monetary authority has directed bank and financial
institutions to raise minimum paid up capital by up to four times to whopping 8000
million and 2500 million for commercial and development Bank respectively. Which
is kind of sweat dropper for banks because there are large number of banks and all of
them are not able to meet these criteria.
One of the major challenges of banking sector is liquidity crisis which is directly
affecting the operation of bank the current scenario. People are not exactly using
banks for their financial activities. People have money but at the same time banks are
facing liquidity crisis.
As there are news and talks about the concept of big merger in banking sectors. Lot of
financial experts are referring it as ‘Too Big Too Fail’. Therefore, this is one of the
current and serious challenges of banks of Nepal.
NRB directs every commercial bank have to open at least one branch in municipality
of the state. As the operational cost of opening a branch and deploying employees in
various municipalities is more than the income or profit incurred from them, this
poses threat to the profitability to the bank.
So these are some of the major opportunities and challenges that the Nepalese
commercial banks and financial institutions face in performing their activities. By
making proper utilization of these activities bank and financial institutions can
increase their net income and reduce the operational costs. Not only the mentions
above there are move other factors that have positive as well as negative impact on
the performance of the bank and financial institutions which are not mentioned above.

CHAPTER III
INTRODUCTION OF ADBL
With the main objective of providing institutional credit for enhancing the production
and productivity of the agricultural sector in the country, the Agricultural
Development Bank, Nepal was established in 1968 under the ADBN Act 1967, as
successor to the cooperative Bank. The Land Reform Savings Corporation was
merged with ADBN in 1973. Subsequent amendments to the Act empowered the bank
to extend credit to small farmers under group liability and expand the scope of
financing to promote cottage industries. The amendments also permitted the bank to
engage in commercial banking activities for the mobilization of domestic resources.

CHAPTER IV
The involvement as an intern in the ADBL in Tansen branch, was very fruitful from
aspect of gaining the practical expose to the banking industry as well as to the
corporate world. Facing the various situations in the branch helped me develop a new
insight of the works performed in the banking industry. The analysis of the activities
performed in the various departments is given below:
With the proper verification of all required documents, new account is opened. It is
very essential to know all the details of customers before opening of an account.
While opening the account, bank uses Know Your Customer policy. This policy helps
the bank to get all the related information of its customers. When a customer opens an
account in a bank, the bank and the customer enter into a contractual relationship.
a) Any interested customers who wish to open an account in ADBL are inquired
about the type of account he/she wants open, then customer are provided with
account opening form and are requested to fill up account opening form and
attached all required documents. Documents required are:
Utility bills
Certificate of incorporation
Minute
b) Then the information submitted by the proposed account holder is verified and
screening of the account holder and nominee is done through Trust Anti-Money
Laundering (AMLs) to see if they are fraudulent.
c) After screening, screening ID is generated and account holder are assigned with
low, medium or high risk and if all documents are satisfactory account opening
process is continued.
e) Then the customers are asked to deposit the minimum balance required as
prescribed in the assigned account number and directed to show the deposit slip
duly receipted by teller.
g) If customers want to avail them of debit card and mobile banking services then the
debit card and mobile banking application form is filled up and he /she told that
they will be informed through mobile SMS or a phone call after their service is
ready.
h) Signature is scanned for the computer access. The newly opened account is
recorded in account opening book for the future reference.
Another task carried out in CSD was signature scanning of account holders. At first
account opening form is placed in the scanner and signature cards are scanned and
registered in their respective accounts. In the same way, I performed the task of
updating the signature, photo or logo of respective account holders in case customers
change their logo or signature and while doing KYC update.
The Customer Service department is the first department where the client pays a visit
at the beginning when they enter the bank. Customers are asked about their purpose of
visit. It mainly deals with individual customers to solve their question regarding the
18
providing necessary information about the bank. Here the intern formally handles all
the account opening/closing, cards and complaints. It aims at satisfying customers by
queries of the customers by himself or with the help of supervisor in CSD. As a result
of which customers were properly supported by clarifying their queries in the
customer service department.
When new account is opened or previous cheque book finishes, customers demand for
the new cheque book submitting the slip provided by the bank with authorized
signature. New cheque book should be given to the customers after proper inquiry and
verification of signature. Similar to statement issue, cheque books are not provided to
unknown person or even family member unless the accountholder makes written
request.
It is the responsibility of the CSD to generate account statement of customer upon the
demand from the customer. The bank statement shows the transaction occurred during
certain time period as well as the remaining balance in the account. The bank
statement is given only to the accountholder and must be signed by them for validity.
Statements of accountholder are not provided to unknown person or even family
member unless the accountholder makes written request.
Whenever the client wishes to know balance in their account, the internee provided
the information to them. However, such private information is not provided to people
other than the accountholders even to the family members.
KYC is an abbreviation for “Know your Customer”, a term used for customer
identification process. It involves making reasonable efforts to determine true identity
andbeneficialownershipofaccounts,sourceoffunds,thenatureofcustomer's business,
reasonableness of operations in the account in relation to the customer's business, etc.
which in turn helps the banks to manage their risks prudently. The objective of the
KYC guidelines is to prevent banks being used, intentionally or unintentionally
19
criminal elements for money laundering. KYC has two components - Identity and
Address. While identity remains the same, the address may change and hence the
banks are required to periodically update their records.
Intern helped customer to fill up on the cheque and on deposit voucher incase
customers are illiterate and does not know how. Intern filled account number, amount,
accountholder's name, drawer's bank name for deposit voucher.
As the operational duties of the CSD staff, all the documents related to customers
need to be properly recorded in the system and the hard copy is filed in a systematic
filing system for proper future reference. All the documents including that of account
opening form, cheque requisition, account close, renewal forms, mobile banking,
Internet banking, ATM request, pending documents, all are properly filed in their
respective files. Thus, the various activities performed by the intern are as follows:
Prepare files for account opening, E-banking, Mobile banking, and DMAT
separately.
Putting all forms according to their account number to their respective files.
Here the intern learned about the vertical and horizontal filing methods.
After seven weeks of placement in CSD, intern got a chance to learn about credit
department for remaining one-week period. Some of major activities performed in
credit department are as follows:
The major department of a bank is the loan department. Generally, a loan can be
classified into two part: Funded loan and Non-funded loan. Home loan and Vehicle
loan are some examples of funded loan. Similarly, Letter of Credit and Guarantee are
20
some example of non-funded loan. To get a loan, the customer has to follow some
steps which are as follows:
Customer as to submit real and proved salary or income document to the bank.
Certificate from Credit Information Center LTD (CIB) should be submitted. The
chances of getting loan highly depend on this CIB certificate.
Site visit (collateral visit) by the bank to check valuation is authentic or not.
Finally, the bank provides a loan to the customer according to the bank’s loan
disbursement criteria.
Intern has assisted customers for various documents required at various stage in this
procedure. From this loan procedure intern learned about importance of CIB
certificate and document required to get a various type of loan.
Throughout the internship period, as an internee following are problem faced and
solved, some of the problems such as:
3. Searching various files, documents and information of the customers when needed.
5. Internal data and financial transactions are checked time to time to solved the error
in data entry.
21
The above problems that I faced during my internship period were solved with the
help of senior interns and other staff members of the bank.
The analysis of the gap between theory and practice given below which is based on
the experience gained during the performance of the activities and the observation
made during the period of performance:
1. Many small things are to be kept in mind along with the confidentiality of
information of the customers.
3. Documents are kept without proper filing which make the work delay
while searching the file.
4. Since the entire activity of the bank is dependent upon the computer
network, any interruption or failure of network results in work delay and
customer dissatisfaction.
7. Bank has large number of documents of customer information in the written form
which needs to be managed systematically to gain information promptly whenever
required
10. The task of dealing with the various natured customers is indeed a very difficult
task.
22
11. The intern of dealing less tasks to be performed in the credit and cash department
by themselves as they need enough of the time to know the technical and legal aspects
of the tasks and its sensitivity.
12. The activities in the CSD are simple yet challenging and repetitive yet sensitive.
23
CHAPTER V
5.1 Conclusion
1. For any organization customers are the crucial part that determines the success or
failure of the institution. Satisfied customers are the reasons for any successful
organization.
2. The working process of dealing with customers while providing service and
handling complaints and queries should be satisfactory enough to retain the existing
customers and attracts new ones. Customers are ready to be linked to the branch if
they get satisfactory service.
3. Time management skill and its importance were learnt. One has to deal with
numbers of customer at once, so everyone should be equally treated.
4. Role of communication and inter-personal skill while handling the customer is very
crucial in CSD to motivate the customer and maintain healthy relationship with them.
24
5. The employees in the CSD give first impression to the customers. So, they should
have a good level of self-confidence while dealing the customer along with the skill to
deal with them properly.
6. Patience is the key to handle the customers. One has to be calm in any kind of
situations while dealing to the customer.
It was great experience for me in ADBL as an internee. In those eight weeks I learnt
about the whole banking process and nature of bank functioning. In the period of
intern I get to know the various service and product offered by bank like various
deposit schemes and loan related schemes. I also learnt to deal with the customer and
making coordination among the staffs. Similarly I also found the knowledge regarding
functioning of banking department their coordination and team work to achieve the
organizational goal. Beside the organization, I learnt to enhance my personal qualities
and skill too. The major key skills I noticed and learnt were:
Communication skills
Daily interaction with the staffs and the customer has enhanced the communication
skills.
Teamwork skills
Almost all the activities during the internship period were performed in collaboration
with other interns and staffs which has helped in further understanding about
teamwork skills.
Negotiation skills
Dealing with customer complaints and their enquiries has further helped in building
up the negotiation skill.
Analytical skills
It was necessary and important to observe and analyze different scenarios within the
bank which has helped in enhancing the analytical capacity.
Problem-solving skills
Many challenges and problems were faced in course of the internship period and they
were solved with the help of supervisors.
25
And one needs to have a strong attitude to complement these skills in order to perform
various tasks within an organization. Thus, the major attitudes that I learned during
the internship period were:
Initiative
One of the key attitudes one should hold is initiative ness and that’s developed
through the internship experience.
