Clearing is usually done twice a day; the first at 9.30 a.m. and the second at 2.30 p.m. At the time of first clearing, officer/clerk delivers checks and claims. At the second, clearing members confirm each other payment or nonpayment. The members of clearing house maintain accounts with the Bangladesh Bank, through which the amount payable or receivable is usually settled.

2.14. Remittance:

The system of transmitting or sending money from one branch to another branch of the same bank or from one bank to another bank within a country or outside the country is known as remittance. It is one of the important functional areas of a bank. A bank can earn handsome fees as commission from the dealings of money remittance. During my internship program I have gathered practical experience about how money is remitted from one branch to another branch of a bank or from one bank to another bank.

2.15. Types of Remittance:

Remittance can be of two types, i.e. A) Inland Remittance B) Foreign Remittance.

A) Inland Remittance:

When money is remitted within a country through proper banking channel, it is termed as inland remittance. Sonali Bank, Rajshahi medical college hospital Branch deals a lot of inland remittance at every working day.

a. Modes of Inland Remittance:

1) Demand Draft (DD): DD is the most widely used instrument of remitting fund. It is order to pay money drawn by one branch of a bank upon another branch of same bank for a particular amount of money that is payable to order and demand.

2) Procedures of remitting money through DD:

The procedures of remitting money through DD are stated briefly in below-
At first, the sender of money is advised to fill up a form and deposit the cash. The form is usually called DD application form or credit voucher.
The senders of money fills up the voucher appropriately and place it with cash before the officer at cash receipt section.
After receiving the voucher and cash, the officer counts the money and charges a fee as commission. Here it is mentionable that the commission for DD up to tk 10,000 is Tk. 10 for per 1000 and Tk. 1 for every thousand above Tk. 10,000.
After that, the voucher is sent to the concerned officer of remittance section.
Here the officer prepares a paper instrument called “Demand Draft (DD)” and enters the amount in the draft issue register.
Draft book and DD along with the register are then sent to the officer in charge for checking. If every thing is Okayed, the officer signs the DD and voucher and keeps the register and counter foil of the DD.
After that the DD is issued to the sender of money. At this stage he can send the DD to the receiver branch by post or any other ways,
After issuing the DD and handing over it to the sender of money, the DD issuing branch sends an advice to the receiver branch about DD.
Finally, the DD receiver branch makes payment to the bearer of DD. i.e. payee after completing the necessary formalities.

3) Mail Transfer (MT): MT is another widely used instrument of remitting fund from one branch of a bank to another branch of the same bank. It is not used to remit fund from one bank to another. MT is nearly same as DD.

4) Procedures of Remitting money through MT:

The procedures of remitting money through MT are almost same as the procedures of remitting fund through DD. But there are some exceptions in this system”-

In case of MT, the sender of money is not provided with the MT paper but a receipt. The branch sends the MT paper under its own responsibility by mail to the MT receiving branch.
The commission for MT up to Tk. 10 for per 1000 and Tk 1 for every thousand above Tk 10,000.
The postal charge is Tk 10 for every MT issue and any amount of money.
The MT issuing branch has to send a secret message i.e. Test to the MT receiving branch. It is must for any amount of money. Here the amount of money, issuing date and other particulates are mentioned.
To maintain the secrecy of the message sent, the issuing branch codes the message by a particular number consisting of different digits. After receiving the message, the paying branch decodes it by using the predetermined techniques. This process is called test. If every thing is Okayed, the paying branch makes payment to the payee.

5) Telegraphic Transfer (TT): TT is the fastest means of remitting fund between two branches of the same bank. Fund can not be remitted from one bank to another bank through TT.

6) Procedures of remitting money through TT: The primary formalities that have to be maintained to remit money through TT are same as DD and MT.

The commission for MT up to Tk. 10,000 is Tk 10 per TK 1000 and Tk 1 for every thousand above Tk 10,000.
Here a fee of Tk 20 is charged as telegraphic charge for every TT issue and for any amount of money.
In case of TT, no paper instrument is sent to the paying branch. Rather the TT issuing branch sends a TT advice through telephone, telegraph, Fax or telex to the paying branch. In sending message, the branch keeps necessary secrecy.
Side by side, the TT issuing branch sends an advice to the head office of the bank.
After receiving the message, the paying branch tests to decode the message. If every thing is obeyed, then the branch makes payment to the payee. After that the branch sends an advice to the head office to reconcile the accounts of both branches.
In case of TT, test is must for every issue and for any amount of money.

B) Foreign Remittance:

The procedure to transfer money from one country to another country through bank or other govt. authorized agencies is called foreign remittance. The Sonali Bank, Greater Road Branch, Rajshahi does not provide foreign remittance facility to its customer directly.

Appropriate employment of loan is the precondition of recovery of loan. But there is no specific target for loan recovery of this branch. But always there is a big gap between the amount of total classified loan and recovery of loans. Now this becomes a normal situation for them.

In the year 2003 and 2004 the recovery rate was 77.54% and 79.09%. Here the recovery rate was not bad. We hope that bank will recover more loan in future.

5.4. Profitability:

The notion of profitability analysis is related to the management of an organization performance. In general profitability can be defined as the ratio of output per unit of input.

Table-5.6: Changes of profit over the years 2000-2004 (Tk. in lakh)

2003	(69.96)	-76.19
2004	(5.11)	-1269.08

From the above Table and Figure it is shows that there was net loss during 2000-2004. In the year 2001 there was a lowest amount of loss and the loss is decrease by 972.82%. After the time of 2002 the amount of loss was decline and in 2004 it was decrease by 1269.08%.

According to the bank official this adverse-profitability is due to the high administrative cost & classification program specially.

5.5. Causes of classification/poor recovery:

The bank official mentioned the following causes for classified loan/poor recovery of loans:

Lack of mentality of loanee to repay.
Illegal practice in loan disbursement.
Loanee hampered hardly by natural calamities like flood, earthquake, tornado, etc or man made problem like theft by others.
In various times Government exempt loan. For this the loanee becomes very reluctant to repay in this sense that in future he will set loan exempt. Resulting loan classification and poor recovery.
The death of guarrantator. It is very difficult to recover.
Suggestion for recovery:
Singly or grouply have to meet with the borrower and inspire him to repay at least two days in a week.
If the borrower comes to pay generally then should take the help of local administration.
Bank should try to understand the borrower of the rule of law. For this the borrower may repay to protect his honor.
It should be described to the borrower about the rule of loans interest. By this the borrower will know that if we do not repay then it will increased geometrically. For this he will inspire to repay as early as possible.
Different committee is needed for the purpose of recovery.
The loans which have no owner and are classified during long time have to be desolated for balance.
The bank may recover with the help of interest exempting.

5.6. Problems of deposit collection:

In deposit mobilization Sonali Bank, Greater Road Branch, Rajshahi faces various problems which are discussed bellow:

Lack of production originated business: A very few numbers of industrial units is located in Rajshahi city. Most of the businessman deals with the trading. So, this branch can not collect the deposits of industrial collection.
Target setting policy: There is no special target setting policy of this branch. Resulting reluctant mentality of the employee for deposit collection.
Fixed rate of interest: Bangladesh Bank determines a range of interest rate, which is paid on deposit and the head office of Sonali Bank follows top down allocation policy in setting of target, which is unrealistic. For example adding 20% more with the current year’s deposit, the expected deposit of following years is determined. If the branch enjoys the autonomy of determining the rate of interest, it is possible for the branch to attract the special depositor giving higher rate of interest.
Absence of Islamic banking: Most of the people of Bangladesh are Muslim. So, most of the people of our country bear ethics of Islam in mind. Interest is prohibited in Islam. Consequently many of us put money in Islamic Bank.
Provide mass banking: This branch dose not functions of mass banking. As a result it is to be involved in various non-remunerative activities (like payments of teacher’s salary).
Provision for the govt. institution: There is a provision for the govt. institution to put 80% of it’s deposits in NCBs. But this rule is not followed strictly. In this respects govt. has not taken any step yet consequently, those institutions go to Private Banks in search of better benefit.
Illegal expenses: Private Banks is habituated with illegal expenses. Some times, they send precious presentation (VIZ, TV, Freeze etc.) to high-level govt. of official and businessman, which is unthinkable for NCBs.
Special benefit: Private Banks can provide special benefit to attract the depositors. But it is not possible for this branch as a wing of Sonali Bank.
Rules and regulation: Since it is a branch of state owned commercial bank it follows rigid rules and regulations. On the other hand the flexible rules and regulation maintain Private Banks.

5.7. Problems of loan disbursement:

The following problems are mentioned by bank officials related this area:

Lack of proper security.
Lack of proper supervision of disbursed loan.
Illegal activities of CBA to sanction a loan.
Influence of political leader to sanction a loan.

6.3. Concluding Remarks:

Sonali Bank is one of the biggest nationalized commercial bank in Bangladesh. It serves not only Bangladesh but also abroad as well. Sonali Bank, Greater Road Branch, Rajshahi is one of the important branch. It is sub-chest branch.

It have become familiar with all kinds of services rendered by this branch and functioning process of those services like account opening, token issue, posting of cheques, cancellation of cheques, clearing house, cash receipts and cash payments, remittance and deposits. Now this branch have to provide limited on-line service if necessary.

All kinds of customary services rendered by this branch are not so good where as private commercial bank has created an image in rendering customary services. The negligence in customary services is observed which is now plasticized by other NCBs. This bank is not in the satisfactory position in providing large amount of loan and advances, but classified loan has been decreased day by day.

The investment position of this branch is not satisfactory. In the year 2000 the loan and advance is only 7.67% of total deposit of this year. It is maximum and the positions of debt deposit ratio were 7.11% in 2001, 5.78% in 2002, 6.42% in 2003 and 6.61% in the year 2004.

The position of profitability is going to be well-off day by day with the co-operation of officials. The officials hope that they will make profitable of this branch in coming years.
