  • To the Shareholders of Southeast Bank Limited
    COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABLE GROWTH TOGETHER Nature has spirit and is the main seat of excellence. If we look deep into nature, we get a variety of lessons from its different components and forms. The gushing river heading towards the sea for awaited unison teaches us to face odds with courage and fortitude. The wonderful blooming flowers from the green teach us to smile. The lush green grass signaling safety teaches us to be patient and generous. A mountain with its huge strength teaches us determination. Beyond the clouds, the sky is always blue and the sun is always shining. They want us to be persistent and ready for the upcoming days. A small plant’s gradual turning into a giant tree teaches us to pursue growth trajectory with hope and tenacity. The change in nature with the advent of each season displays that actions explain a lot more than words do. Nature, as a whole, also teaches us integrity and stability. Nature has many forms and patterns, and teaches us the benefit of togetherness. It provides us sustenance and stimulates us to excel in performance. It is our bounden duty to protect and nurture nature. In the cover picture, the plant is growing into a better and more advanced state by a process of evolution. So is our Bank.

The definition of bank can be as follows. Provided by Famous Encyclopedia: A commercial banker is a dealer in money in substitutes for money, such as check or bill of exchange. – New Encyclopedia Britannica Establishment for custody of money, which it pays out on customers order. – The New Oxford Encyclopedia Dictionary Provided by and Ordinances: Banker includes a body of person whether incorporated or not, who carry on the business of banking. – English Bills of Exchange Act - 1882 A bank is a person or corporation carrying on bonafide banking business. – English Finance Act Provided by Banking Institutes: A bank performs an essentially distributive task, service or acts as an intermediary between borrowers & lenders. In broader sense, however, a bank can be considered the heart of a complex financial structure. – American Institute of Banking Stated very simply, banks deal in money and in that connection offer certain related financial services. – Harold Wallgren for American Bankers Association The above-mentioned characteristics sketched to outline the definition of a “bank” are nowadays shared by a lot of different types of financial institution. Therefore, because banking activities now overlap many diverse businesses, we will consider a variety of modern financial institutions 10 – including commercial banks but also savings-and-loan associations, brokerage firms, and mutual funds – as “banks”. 2.2 Objectives of a Bank: The objectives of a bank can be looked at from three different perspectives of the three key parties to the banking activities: the bank owner, the Government, and the bank clients.
