1.2 Business & Financial Analysis:
The business and financial performance of Dhaka Bank Limited (DBL) over a three year period has been analysed under five broad categories:

Environmental Analysis. Business Performance Analysis. Financial Performance Analysis. Investors’ Interest Analysis. Other Factors Analysis.
1.2.1 Environmental Analysis:

PESTEL analysis: • Political: In the year 2006-2007 the economy of the country faced a state of emergency without an elected political government. This made the overall industry activity slower. The Daily Star, (2007). Economical: Bangladesh economy grew at 6.5% in 2006-07 fiscal year against 6.7% in 2005-06 (Dhaka Bank Limited Annual Report 2007,). Inflation of the economy increased from 7.2% in year 2006-07 to 9.94% in year 2007-08 (Bangladesh Bank, 2008). This was backed by stimulated manufacturing, remittances and export growth. Private sector commercial banks posted almost 38% growth in operating profit in 2007 over the last year. (Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics 2007). Social: Raised inflation hit customer’s disposable income that ultimately effect in customer deposit. Moreover customer taste about banking service is changing over the years. Potential customers are increasing includes a big stake of youth. Legal: The industry is inherently highly regulated by Banking Act and the central bank. Very recently DBL’S minimum capital rate against risk weighted capital increased from 9% to 10%.







Porter Five Force model: Threats of new entrant: High capital requirement, existing strong competition, required economies of scale, inherent complexity and government entry barrier reduced the threat of new entrant. Though the sector is highly profitable and the industry is in the growth phase of life cycle. Future changes in government policy may increase the threat of new entrant. Existing competition: Recently there were 62 banks operating in the economy of Bangladesh. The majority of the population are still outside of the banking operation. This is a high growth industry in this economy. The demand for banking services has been increasing at a rapid rate, so existing competition has been less of a threat to DBL..

Chart 1.1: ROA & ROE The comparison shows that the performance of DBL in terms of ROA was worse than our chosen benchmark PBL. The ROA of DBL dropped to 1.22% at 2006 and remained almost same in year 2007, though PBL registered growth in this measure. DBL’s ROE registered growth in year 2006 but slightly curved in the year 2007. DBL’s efficiency in the utilization of assets (Return on Asset) dropped by 12.5% from previous year. This indicates management inefficiency in utilisation of funds. In the year of 2006 and 2007 there was no elected political government and the environment was not favourable to entrepreneurs and other business sectors and banks’ potential customersthat was the reason for the downturn in its performance. Moreover DBL issued right shares in November 2006 that doubled the number of issue with a high premium. This additional money increased the total asset value but could not contribute at expected rate of return. That immature fund fuelled the dilution of the ratio.

Banks in Bangladesh are required to keep 5% worth of its time and demand liabilities (Cash Reserve Requirement [CRR]) in the form of cash in current account with Bangladesh Bank and worth 13% (including 5% CRR) of its time and demand liabilities (Statutory Liquidity Requirement) in form of treasury bills, bonds, FC with Bangladesh Bank.

The reserve kept at the minimum level leaving rest of the fund free to be utilised as necessary. So, in liquidity management the Dhaka Bank is well efficient.

Capital Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAP) ratio is used to protect depositors and promote the stability and efficiency of financial systems around the world. Two types of capital are measured: tier one capital, which can absorb losses without a bank being required to cease trading, and tier two capital, which can absorb losses in the event of a winding-up and so provides a lesser degree of protection to depositors. CAP is one of the important regulatory requirements, measured by the ratio of the bank’s total capital to risk weighted assets both on balance sheet and off balance sheet transactions. This is to ensure that the bank has strong capital base.

In addition, investments were worked as a way to provide sufficient liquidity and flexibility in treasury operations. The portfolio included Government Treasury bill, Treasury bond, prize bond, Quoted and unquoted companies etc.

Human Resource: “… the land, buildings, knowledge and machines that are used to produce goods and the worker skills are necessary to use those resources. Together, physical and ‘human’ assets generate the entire spectrum of output produced and consumed by the society.” (Bodie et al. 2005) So human resources are an important part of an organisation. According to Mendelow Stakeholder Mapping Matrix they are considered as stakeholder group with High level of interest at the same time high level of power. DBL’s average payment to each employee was 0.63 million where PBL expensed 0.52 million. A bank’s employee development is a vital factor for an organisation’s directional and operational efficiency and future financial growth.

3.3 Conclusion:

The main objective of this report was to analyse the financial situation of DBL, by gathering all the relevant information and data, applying the appropriate techniques to analyse it The report has started with some background of the bank and subsequently by business environmental analysis to figure out Threats and Opportunities using PESTAL analysis and Porter Five Force Model. Other parts of the analysis cover evaluation of Internal Strengths and Weaknesses of the bank. The analysis is classified into Environmental Analysis, Business Performance Analysis, Financial Performance Analysis, Investors Interest Analysis and Other factors analysis. The information was gathered mainly from primary and secondary sources. The analysis has figured out a number of strengths and weaknesses in the performance of DBL. Return on Asset of the bank dropped by 13% from the previous year. In terms of net interest income DBL relatively grew faster than PBL, which stood at BDT 1589 million. DBL has earned a higher return on Loan and Advances as compared to PBL at 14.84%. Cost of Deposit of DBL decreased from past year but still 7% higher than PBL. Investment income grew at higher rate than Investment volume. So investments were earning higher yields than before. The Import business of DBL fell and Export grew over the last year. The increased export gave the bank an edge in managing required foreign currency for meeting Letter of Credit (LC) commitment. All performance indicator of DBL other than Return on Asset (ROA) and Foreign Remittance registered growth, though majority were not at the desired efficiency level. The bank maintained liquidity requirement in an efficient manner. DBL had a Capital Adequacy Ratio of 10.36%, which is well above the requirement. DBL’s earning ratio dropped because of adverse economical & political uncertainty as well as right issue of share capital. Earning per share of DBL was BDT 46 per share that was 25% less than PBL. Share market price of DBL in relation to earnings was higher than PBL. Share price grew by 51% from the past year. Share market price of DBL in relation to earning was higher than PBL. Share Price grew by 51% from past year. DBL adopted 100% retention policy in current year. Shareholders were compensated by 25% bonus issue. Higher average payment scale of DBL has and will attract skilled and talented employees and higher retention of experienced employees. This will in effect increase overall operational efficiency. In response to DBL’s Return on Asset, management’s focus should be on better utilization of its asset to earn higher return. They should consider Loan and Advance mix. The bank can itself create a cell to promote entrepreneur with specialized support that will increase its service income and at the same time will create a scope for better utilization of fund.

Management should review the operating expenses. The Incremental Budget for the operating expenses could include Budgetary Slack. So the budget should be reproduced using the concept of Zero Based Budgeting system. Moreover the management may perform Porter Value Chain Analysis to eliminate the expenses that does not add value that customers would recognise. New sectors for export business should be generated. DBL itself can arrange promotional activities to develop knowledgeable service customer group. The documentation processing should be easier, it should arrange easy loan and guarantee faster services. The bank can also make it easier for exporters by creating a Virtual Group to complete the processes for example by providing logistic service, warehousing etc. Bank can appoint counsellor to advice customers facing trouble and provide general and technical advise. Banks mainly generate income from lending and investing from customer deposits. Overall bank’s levels of activities depend on levels of customer deposit. So DBL should strengthen its customer base and that is the key for success. The bank should concentrate on particular targets e.g. Customer friendly deposit scheme, increased class depth, worthy return and standard level of servicing. But merely better service and return are not all because it’s the era of Specialisation; customers nowadays prefer prestigious brand image, reliability and individual value adding services. The bank should have research and development department to recognise and analyse customer requirement and future potentiality. These should be considered in corporate strategy making process. Overall on the ground of the analysis I can conclude that the Dhaka bank was growing over the three years (2005, 2006 and 2007) in all important sector e.g. Income, deposit, investment, loan & advances, import export, EPS, share price etc., but the important question was whether the growth rate was higher than its competitor (Prime Bank Limited)? The answer I found for majority of my analysis instruments was that it was not. So DBL was not competitive. Though the bank showed efficiency in managing higher return by higher Loan & Advance & Investment yield but failed to utilize its entire asset as ROA was weak. DBL has maintained liquidity & capital requirement in an efficient manner. Overall Dhaka Bank Limited has performed fairly well with a growth in almost all aspects of the business. Although it has been seen to have below the average performace compared to Prime Bank Limited it may still be concluded that it will continue to grow and perform well and thus be attractive to stoke future market investors. (The Financial Express, 2007).

...for mission statement analysis is United Bronx Parents, Inc. There website is: http://www.ubpinc.org The current mission statement is as follows: “United Bronx Parents, Inc. (UBP) is a private, not-for profit “community grown” human services agency – providing a variety of social services in the South Bronx and on a citywide basis. Since 1965, UBP’s mission has been “To provide the basic human services necessary for families and individuals to obtain self-proficiency through dignity in their struggle to participate as the functioning and valuable citzens they are.”” The mission statement for UBP is aesthetically good and overall meaningful. It has a purpose statement, it lists the population it is working with and the activities. It also touches on its values and the geographic region it serves. However, it is longer than thirty words. To revise it I would shorten it slightly to read as such: “United Bronx Parents, Inc. is a private not for profit “community grown” human services agency providing the basic human services necessary for families and individuals in the South Bronx.” The second organization that I selected is Providence House which is the non-profit organization that provided me with my supportive housing apartment that I recently moved into since being a victim of a violent crime and subsequently homeless with my daughter for the past four years.

...Mission statement and swot As a security professional, the company I work for has worked closely with the TSA for airport security details. While my organization doesn't have a clearly defined mission statement and vision, the TSA does. Mission: Protect the Nation's transportation systems to ensure freedom of movement for people and commerce. Vision: Provide the most effective transportation security in the most efficient way as a high performing counter-terrorism organization. Core Values: Integrity - Respect and care for others and protect the information we handle. - Conduct ourselves in an honest, trustworthy and ethical manner at all times. - Gain strength from the diversity in our cultures. Innovation - Embrace and stand ready for change. - Courageous and willing to take on new challenges. - Have an enterprising spirit, striving for innovation and accepting the risk-taking that comes with it. Team Spirit - Open, respectful and dedicated to making others better. - Have a passion for challenge, success and being on a winning team. - Build teams around our strengths. The TSA, while suffering much criticism, has undoubtedly deterred much violence in today's social climate just through it's very existence. Sometimes the methods in which security professionals and law enforcement accomplish their missions are called into question, but I believe that this stems from a deep seated resentment of authority figures that many in society harbor.

You're either my friend or my enemy. Polarization. It does not allow a middle ground. It’s either or. Revised sentence: I have friends, enemies, classmates, associates, co-workers, etc. I try to avoid having enemies. 2. Ken says to his wife Lynette, “Glad to get out of that job.  All those ragheads and their curry make me sick.” Biased Language. Ken is making a very derogatory statement using “ragheads” and “curry” to denote race. Revised sentence: “I am glad to be gone from that job. I just wasn’t happy there.

...Vision Statement July 3rd, 2016 Vision Statement There are important differences regarding what is vision and mission statements. The importance of understanding their differences will help the organization to build a sustainable base that will guide the organization according to these statements. In conducting research on visions statements of different organizations I found the Amazon vision statement one that reflects a clear purpose of its future and that it is well communicated through simple words. According to Amazon "Our [Amazon's] vision is to be earth's most customer centric company; to build a place where people can come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online." (Quoted from Amazon.com). This vision statement selected provides an engaging picture of the future of the organization supported by it acts. Difference between vision and mission statements The difference between vision and mission statements include where the aspect is that they want to show regarding itself or society. Boone states “I've read that the mission statement answers the question: "What is our business?" The vision statement answers the question: "What do we want to become?" (Boone, 2005). A vision statement could be compared with a roadmap that will guide us in the future by setting defined directions and also what the company wants to become, and in order to be successful it should be clear, desirable, challenging, feasible, and easy to communicate.

Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination”. Analysis: Salvation Army’s vision and mission statements are one in the same and seem to lack length, direction, and meaning. Their published mission statement is not what one would expect from a nonprofit organization. It fails to address some of the areas since much of the organization's existence is tied up in this purpose; it is critical for the people to carefully craft the statements that shape it. Each one will be used both internally and externally as a reminder of the organization's rationale, and together they will be used to make important decisions about the organization. It lacks of the mission statement checklist test, the activities and services was not provided. Revised Mission Statement: “ Salvation Army is committed to serving the whole person, body, mind and spirit, with integrity and respect, using creative solutions to positively transform lives.

Mission Statements

...Criteria of a Good Mission Statement Changing the mission or creating an organization’s first mission statement is a process of gathering ideas and suggestions for the mission and honing them into a short, sharply focused phrase that meets specific criteria. An effective mission statement clearly defines who the customer is and what services and products the business intends to provide. It also serves as a guide for day-to-day operations and as the foundation for future decision-making. The following are criteria for a good mission statement: The Mission Statement is Focuses on Satisfying Customer Needs A mission statement should focused on satisfying customer needs rather than being focused on the product. Products and technologies eventually become outdated, but basic market needs may last forever. A market-oriented mission statement defines the business in terms of satisfying basic customer needs. For examples refer to the following “Market-Oriented Business Definitions” table. (Kotler p.49) The Mission Statement Tells “Who” Our Customers are. (Thompson Strickland, p.30) Who is being satisfied? A company should define the type of customers it wishes to serve. Which customer groups it is targeting. Customer groups are relevant because they indicate the market to be served, the geographic domain to be covered, and the types of buyers the firm is going after.

Mission Statement

...stages of building an organization, mission statements are usually one of the first tasks to be completed by founding members. This is because the mission statement is the backbone of the organization. Mission statements lay out the organization’s reason for existence. In laying out the purpose for the organization, it gives the different divisions of the organization an overall goal to meet when they set individual goals and engage in decision making. Also, the mission statement communicates the reason for the organizations existence for all interested parties, both internally and externally. This essay explores why mission statements are important by analyzing the different reasons the mission statement plays such an important role. Just as the sounds of many instruments work in harmony to make a song, there are many moving parts that work together in organizations to reach goals. In music, timing helps keep all the “parts” moving together to make a synchronized piece. In business, the mission statement sets the tone by which all the “parts” work to reach a goal. The mission statement states what the company does, how it does it, and what the company would like to achieve. The mission statement defines the purpose of the organization, aligns organizational efforts, and acts as a means of communication both internally and externally.

Mission & Vision Statements

...MISSION & VISION STATEMENTS FedEx & Google Mission & Vision Statement Analysis Prepared for Prepared by October, 2013 MISSION STATEMENT “Mission statement is a description of what an organization actually does – what its business is – and why it does it.” Often called the “credo”, “philosophy”, “core values” or “our aspirations”, organization’s mission is the statement that defines its core purpose or reason for being. It tells who a company is and what it does. According to P. Drucker, often called the father of modern management, a mission is the primary guidance in creating plans, strategies or making daily decisions.
