EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
An internship program is very important & essential for acquiring experience through
learning and spreading the scope of Knowledge. I have done my internship program in
National Bank Limited.
This internship report is aimed at providing a comprehensive picture to the areas of
Contribution of Foreign Exchange of Commercial Banks of Bangladesh: A Case Study
with National Bank Ltd.” The report has been divided into several parts. These are:
Introduction, Corporate review of National Bank Limited (NBL), Foreign Exchange, and
Documents Used in Foreign Exchange Business, Letter of Credit (L/C), Import, Export,
Foreign Remittance, Findings and Analysis, References.
National Bank Limited is one of the largest commercial Bank in Bangladesh. The main
objective of the Bank is to provide all of banking services at the doorsteps of the people. The
Bank also participates in various social and development programs and takes part in
implementation of various policies and promises made by the Government.
National Bank Limited plays a pioneering role in handling foreign trade and foreign
exchange transactions. With wide network of branches at home and a large number of
correspondent banks worldwide, it is handling the largest volume of export-import business
including homebound remittances. For this reason, Foreign Exchange of the Bank is very
much essential. But, now a day’s banking sector of Bangladesh is suffering the disease of
default culture which is the consequence or result of bad performance of most banks.
In this report a comparison is shown among five private Ltd. Banks. These banks are-
Southeast Bank Ltd., Bank Asia Ltd., Dhaka Bank Ltd., AB Bank Ltd. and National Bank
Ltd. All these Banks are contributing a lot to the total Import and Export of Bangladesh.
Another comparative scenario is shown which is between the performances of Private Ltd.
Banks and Public Ltd. Banks. This research will obviously help everyone to understand the
contributing of Banks from the perspective of Foreign Exchange of Bangladesh.
I have taken all the reasonable care to ensure the accuracy and quality to make the report
standard. And I believe that it has included all the necessary information to be relevant.

National Bank Limited is one of the largest commercial Bank in Bangladesh. The main objective of the Bank is to provide all of banking services at the doorsteps of the people. The Bank also participates in various social and development programs and takes part in implementation of various policies and promises made by the Government. National Bank Limited plays a pioneering role in handling foreign trade and foreign exchange transactions. With wide network of branches at home and a large number of correspondent banks worldwide, it is handling the largest volume of export-import business including homebound remittances. For this reason, Foreign Exchange of the Bank is very much essential. But, now a day’s banking sector of Bangladesh is suffering the disease of default culture which is the consequence or result of bad performance of most banks. In this report a comparison is shown among five private Ltd. Banks. These banks are- Southeast Bank Ltd., Bank Asia Ltd., Dhaka Bank Ltd., AB Bank Ltd. and National Bank Ltd. All these Banks are contributing a lot to the total Import and Export of Bangladesh. Another comparative scenario is shown which is between the performances of Private Ltd. Banks and Public Ltd. Banks. This research will obviously help everyone to understand the contributing of Banks from the perspective of Foreign Exchange of Bangladesh. I have taken all the reasonable care to ensure the accuracy and quality to make the report standard. And I believe that it has included all the necessary information to be relevant.
