CONCLUSION

In Bangladesh commercial Banks have spread their command in financial system, but we have to recognize the fact that non-Bank Financial Institutions are also significant for smooth economy. Company like MIDAS is providing some additional and dynamic financial services which helped them to become well known. In one hand they are providing support for those financial sectors that was not served by commercial bank. As an efficient company MIDAS helps in minimizing risk which in turn helps the economy as a whole. As MIDAS becoming stronger and efficient day by day it can be hoped that if they get necessary support from government it will be able to play a more historic role in the economic development of Bangladesh.

I also find that Midas specialize in providing you with instant cash through the purchase of accounts receivable or debts outstanding which is a financing technique known as Factoring. Factoring moves your cash flow forward creating immediate cash to improve your financial position and increase your purchasing power.

As the Non-banking financial institution it is searching for new area of business and collect information about the potential sector as well as to prepare strategy for getting competitive advantage.

Lastly, I can said that the Non-banking financial institution have huge opportunity to increase business and profit in the Bangladeshi economic. Its plan should be innovative to do these jobs.

Recommendations

 Summary of major findings

The following problems or shortage are observed.

1. Lack of sufficient executives especially in treasury department that hampers the deposit sanctioning process in time.
2. MIDAS takes relatively more times in providing the certificates to the clients. It seriously discourages the persons who are interested to keep deposit here. mode of honors check, checking of different legal documents etc. Head office takes so longer time in processing and approval of certificates of the deposits.
3. MIDAS does not provide certificates to all deposits like double money term deposit, money builder’s term deposit. So the client loss their faith and not interested to keep deposits.
4. MIDAS does not give premature withdrawal like bank; or if allowed premature withdrawal then charges some extra charges, which discourage the clients to keep money here.
5. MIDAS only like to invest in business sectors; they do not eager to invest in private sectors. Which minimize the opportunity of their profit maximizing.
6. MIDAS does not provide any extra benefits to the existing client for keeping deposit here again. That’s discouraging them to keep relationship with the organization.

MIDAS should provide the certificate of the all type of deposits.

1. Deposit process and giving certificates should be faster.
2. The invest sector should be the moderate and more.
3. The deposit policies should be revised to moderate and made easy for the clients.
4. MIDAS also should concentrate on the promotion activities; that all levels of client know about their services.
