E-Banking
In Pakistan, banking sector provides around 6 million borrowers and 25 million depositors, implying a penetration rate of 3.6 percent and 15 percent respectively. In terms of admittance to microfinance which means the availability of small loans, micro deposits to low income households, the current penetration rate is just 10 percent. In other words we can say that approximately 80-85 percent of Pakistan's population does not have access to any regulated financial services institutions. That makes the economic world uneven and discriminatory. There are at present 20 domestic banks with 7,590 branches and 21 foreign banks with 71 branches in operation in the country. Banking sector plays significant role in the economic life of the nation.
It participates in effective way in the process of economic development of the country. It influences different economic activities like elimination of poverty, mobilization of resources, creation and distribution of public finance. Banking sector is often called as a nation's economic engine. Almost 81% of banking assets are in private hands. Likewise, the present foreign stake comes to 47% of total paid-up capital of all the financial institutions regulated by Pakistan's central bank, the State Bank of Pakistan. Banking sector of Pakistan consists of Commercial Banks, Specialized Banking and other non-banking financial Institutions
Brief History of NBP
The NBP was established vide NBP Ordinance No. XIX of November 9. 1949.
The history of the N.B.P. is part of Pakistan struggle for economic independence. In 1947 at the time of partition the economy of the country was main controlled by non-Pakistanis, most of them were Hindus. This partition of the Sub-Continent brought wide spread disturbance and bloodshed on both side of the border. This resulted in the mass migration of population from. one country to another. In this situation the economy of the country influenced badly.
At the time of independence it had been arranged between India and Pakistan that Reserve Bank of India should act as the common monetary authority for both countries upto end of September, 1948. But the arrangement did not prove satisfactory. In August, 1947, Pakistan had been given a first installment of twenty crore of rupees, out of its shares of cash balance of undivided India to meet immediate requirements. The balance amounting to fifty crore rupees was to be paid later, But when Pakistan demanded that amount, they refused to hand over the money unless Pakistan agreed to give up interest in Kashmir and thus the Government of Pakistan could not agree. This situation occurred, when Reserve Bank of India was functioning as the Central Bank of Pakistan.
As a result of this experience, Pakistan felt it could not place any reliance on the Reserve Bank of India. It was clear that its own central Bank was an indispensable necessity and it was opened by the Quaid-e-Azam on the first of July, 1948. When state Bank came into existence, it claimed its share of the assets of the Reserve Bank of India against the Indian currency, retired from Pakistan territory. But again dispute arose. The dispute is still unsettled and these assets have not been delivered to Pakistan.
Business Volume
National bank of Pakistan has set higher standard of achievement. It is the key business partner of Government of Pakistan. NBP is 100% owned by government of Pakistan, and hold 24% share of time and demand deposit. NBP needed to redefine its role and shed the public sector bank image, for a modern commercial bank. It has offloaded 23.2 percent share in the stock market, and while it has not been completely privatized like the other three public sector banks, partial privatization has taken place. It is now listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange. The Bank's financial performance has been remarkable. In 2006, total assets were estimated at Rs. 635 billion, while deposits have grown to nearly Rs. 502 billion. Pre-tax profit rose to Rs. 26 billion. Earnings per share have jumped to Rs. 24.01 in 2006. In year 2010 total assets are Rs. 1,035,025 million.
