Habibur Rahman* Abstract Banks and other financial institutions in Bangladesh are maintaining generally benign and safe working environment. Community engagements of financial sector CSR programs focus both on one-off emergency humanitarian and disaster relief, and on continuing support of initiatives for the weaker and less fortunate population segments in healthcare, education and training. Besides these engagements involving sizable direct expenditure, CSR initiatives of banks include reaching out in financial inclusion campaigns to the under-served rural and urban population segments with financial services including financing for their productive farm and non-farm micro, small and medium sized enterprises. Their lending support for environment-friendly output practices in renewable energy, effluent treatment and adoption of energy efficient output processes etc. have also been growing rapidly. Banks have also embraced green banking with BB’s CSR guidance. They are weighing environmental risks while making financing decisions, and extending funding support for adoption of environment-friendly output processes and practices. Over the past few years, direct and indirect expenditure of banks on CSR initiatives have increased manifold.

  • The Role of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited in Economic Development of Bangladesh
    ISSN: 2308-5096(P) ISSN 2311-620X (O) [International Journal of Ethics in Social Sciences Vol.4, No. 1, June 2016] The Role of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited in Economic Development of Bangladesh Mohammed Mahbubur Rahaman1 Md. Rafiqul Islam Rafiq2 Abstract The main objective of the study is to analyze the role of IBBL in economic development of Bangladesh and to give some suggestions to overcome the challenges Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. (IBBL) is the pioneer of Islamic banking in Bangladesh. IBBL is performing a significant role in the development of the country. The Bank is working in the export sector from the very beginning resulting in maximizing export earnings as well as creating employment opportunities in Bangladesh. The Bank has already emerged as the top export-import bank in Bangladesh. IBBL satisfies most of the efficiency conditions if they can operate as a sole system in an economy. Conventional banking, on the other hand, does not satisfy any of the efficiency conditions analyzed in the present study. However, when Islamic banks start operation within the conventional banking framework, their efficiency goes on decreasing in a number of dimensions. 1. Introduction In a modern economy, banks are the fundamental financial intermediary. Recently they are engaged in value generating activities by assuring uninterrupted supply of financial resources and also help accelerate the pace of development process. In terms of deposit collection, investment, and foreign exchange business the Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL) place the position of being the leading other banks, IBBL has been continuously operating their banking activities and to provide efficient banking service with a view to accelerate 1.

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.

  • And Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960S
    Christine Zumello The “Everything Card” and Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960s First National City Bank (FNCB) of New York launched the Everything Card in the summer of 1967. A latecomer in the fi eld of credit cards, FNCB nonetheless correctly recognized a promising business model for retail banking. FNCB attempted not only to ride the wave of mass consumption but also to cap- italize on the profi t-generating potential of buying on credit. Although the venture soon failed, brought down by the losses that plagued the bank due to fraud, consumer discontent, and legislative action, this fi nal attempt by a major single commer- cial bank to launch its own plan did not signify the end of credit cards. On the contrary, the Everything Card was a har- binger of the era of the universal credit card. irst National City Bank (FNCB) of New York (now Citigroup), one F of the oldest leading commercial banks in the United States, intro- duced the Everything Card in the summer of 1967.1 FNCB was a pioneer in fostering consumer fi nance in the United States. The bank saw an opportunity to increase business by creating an innovative system that would enable masses of consumers to purchase a variety of goods and services on credit. By becoming the principal tool of consumer credit, credit cards revolutionized the banking business. Indeed, “where it couldn’t gain territory with bricks and mortar, Citibank tried to do so 2 with plastic.” The author wishes to express her gratitude to Lois Kauffman of the Citigroup Archives, Citi’s Center for Heritage and Strategy, New York City.

Razib Siddiquie (Department of Business Administration, University of Asia Pacific, Bangladesh) Abstract: Agent banking is one of the most popular financial services in the world where there are difficulties in accessing geographical locations easily. And that is why agent banking is very successful in Latin America & Africa. Other developed like United Kingdom, Australia etc countries are also gradually deploying agent banking because it reduces the cost of operating of the bank. Most of the services of a bank can be provided through agents, thus people of remotest area of a country can be brought under proper financial structure by the virtue of agent banking. According to the agent banking guideline the software of any individual agent will be connected to the core software of the bank, so transactions that will take place in agent premises will be shown in the banking system real-time and those transactional statements can be used anywhere and everywhere for different purposes of the client. I have done my research on agent banking and its prospect for last one year and finally prepared this paper. Keywords: Alternative Banking, Internet service provider, Bank, Regulation, vision I.
