1.0 INTRODUCTION OF ASKARI BANK LIMITED:
ACCORDING TO BANKING COMPANIES ORDINANCE 1962

Banking means the accepting, for the purpose of lending, or investment, of deposits of
money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise, and withdraw able by cheque,
draft, order or otherwise.
Banking companies mean companies which transact the business of banking in
Pakistan.
COMMERCIAL BANK

The commercial bank receives surplus money from the public and lend to others who
needs funds. Bank collects cheque, bills of exchange etc from customers. It transfers
money from one place to another. It provides agency and general utility services.
Purpose of commercial bank is to earn profit.

1.1 Historical Overview
The banking sector has witnessed a dramatic change during the last ten years with the
development of Askari Bank, which is not only redefining priorities and focus of the
banks, but also threatening the domination of traditional players.
The story begins with the incorporation of Askari Commercial Bank limited in Pakistan
on October 09, 1991, Askari Bank Commenced (begin) to operations in April 1992, as a
public limited company. The bank is listed on the Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad Stock
Exchanges and the initial public offering was oversubscribed by 16 times.

While capturing the target market share amongst the view banks, Askari has provided
good value to its shareholders. Its share price has remained approximately 12% higher
Internship Report on Askari Bank Limited

National University of Modern Languages Page 2

than the average share price of quoted banks during the last four years.
Askari Bank has expanded into a nationwide presence of 83 Branches, and an Offshore
Banking Unit in Bahrain. A shared network of over 800 online ATMs covering all major
cities in Pakistan supports the delivery channels for customer service. As on December
31, 2004, the Bank had equity of Rs. 6.016 billion and total assets of Rs. 107.168 billion,
with over 475,000 banking customers, serviced by a total staff of 2,118.
Askari Bank is the only bank with its operational head office in the twin cities of
Rawalpindi-Islamabad, which have relatively limited opportunities as compared to
Karachi and Lahore. This created its own challenges and opportunities, and forced as to
evolve an outward-looking strategy in terms of Askari market emphasis. As a result,
Askari developed a geographically diversified assets base instead of a concentration and
heavy reliance on business in the major commercial centers of Karachi and Lahore,
where most other banks have their operational Head offices.
Askari Commercial Bank is the only Private Sector bank that has been approved by the
World Bank as a Participating Financial Institution for the US$ 200 million Line of
Credit sanctioned (authorized) to the Government of Pakistan for the Financial Sector
Deepening and Intermediation Project.
Askari's emphasis on further broadening its core foreign trade business translated into
handling a higher volume of Export and Import business of Rs. 36 billion registering a
growth of 42% over the pervious year. This enhanced foreign trade business was secured
due to excellent customer services and efficient international settlement arrangements
with our correspondent banks.
