Background of the Study


Banking is one of the most important sectors for countrys wealth building activities.
Commercial banks are certainly profit making Financial Institutions. These institutions
play great role in the money market of every economy.
Due to globalization, technological innovation and deregulation the banking system all
over the world has been changing rapidly. Now a days banks have to compete in the
market place not only with local institutions but also with foreign financial institutions.
Sonali bank is one of the leading nationalized commercial bank in Bangladesh. Its
pioneer role in handling foreign trade and foreign exchange transactions ever before
independence of the country still remains unchallenged. With wide network of branches at
home and also a large number of correspondent banks worldwide it is singularly handling
the largest volume of export-import business including homebound remittances.
For this reason Foreign Exchange of Sonali Bank is very much essential. But now a day the
banking sector of Bangladesh is suffering from the disease of default culture which is the
consequence or result of bad performance of most of the banks.
Sonali Bank is playing an important role toward the growth and economic development of
Bangladesh.
For this reason I want to explore & get experienced about Foreign Exchange Business of
Sonali Bank. If you kindly allow me to do this study it will help me to produce a organic &
constructive report.

The Prime objectives of the study are:

To get an overall idea about the Foreign exchange Business of Sonali Bank.
To apply theoretical knowledge in the practical field.
To describe the organizational structure, management, background, functions and
objectives of the bank and its contribution to the national economy.

To analyze the financing systems of the bank to find out any contributing field.
To examine the profitability and productivity of the bank.
To acquire knowledge about the every day banking operation of Sonali Bank.

Methodology of the study:

preparing this report, I will have also get information from annual report and website of the
Sonali Bank Ltd. The details of the work plan will be furnished by following methodology:

Both primary and secondary source of data will use to complete this study. These two
sources are explained below:

Different papers of Sonali Bank Ltd.
Files and documents of the branch

Limitations:

Due to some legal obligation and business secrecy banks reluctant to provide data. For
this reason, the study limits only on the available published data and certain degree
formal and informal interview.

The bankers are very busy with their jobs, which lead me little time to consult with.

Category wise export, import, and guarantee business, amount and percentage of
classified loan originated from the international trade is missing in the report for their
restriction.

Time is another major constraint to prepare this report.
