 Ratio Analysis:

 Ratio analysis is a powerful tool of financial analysis. A ratio is defined as “the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions” and as “the relationship between two or more things”. In financial analysis, a ratio is used as a benchmark for evaluating the financial position and performance of a bank. Ratios help to summarize large quantities of financial data and to make qualitative judgment about the bank’s financial performance.

 4.1   Liquidity Ratios:

 This ratio measures the ability to meet current obligation. It is extremely essential for a bank to be able to meet obligation as they become due.

4.1.1Current ratio:

Current ratio is the traditional measure of liquidity. We compute it by dividing current assets by current liabilities. As we already mention that current ratio is a ratio to measure the ability to meet current obligation when it comes due.

 So, higher the ratio indicates high capacity to repay the obligation and lower ratio indicates less capacity to repay that obligation and bank always prefer high ratio. We estimate the Current ratio by using the following formula:

YearCurrent Ratio
20091.096
20081.091

CurrentRatio=(CurrentAsset/CurrentLiabilities)

The current ratio represents a margin of safety for Creditors. The higher than the current ratio the greater the marginal of safety. In PUBALI BANK LTD. the current ratio is 1.091 in 2008 and 1.096 in 2009. So say that PUBALI BANK LTD. does have the greater margin of safety. Because Current Ratio is increases in 2009.( Appendix-1)

4.2   Leverage Ratio and Solvency Ratio:

To judge the long-term financial position of the firm, financial leverage or capital structure ratios are calculated. These ratios indicate mix of funds provided by the owners and lenders.

 4.2.1   Debt Ratio:

Debt ratio indicates how borrowing has financed much of the firm’s assets. Higher ratio implies more contribution of lenders over the assets than shareholder and then if the cost of debt is higher than the firm’s overall rate of return, the earnings of shareholder will be reduced. Other hand lower ratio implies more contribution of shareholder and then shareholder fall in risk if company cannot earn as much as they expected. To determine the debt ratio the following formula is used:

Debt Ratio= (Total Liabilities/Total Assets)*100

 

YearDebt ratio
200991.16%
200891.60%

           

In PUBALI BANK LTD. the debt ratio is 91.60% in 2008 and is 91.16 % in 2009 implies that the lenders have financed more in the year 2008. (Appendix-2)

1.2.2   Debt to Equity:

This ratio measures the relationship between lender contributions for each taka of owner’s contribution through debt-equity ratio. The following formula is used:

Debt-Equity Ratio= (Debt/Equity)*100    borrowing from other bank / total shareholder equity

YearDebt- Equity ratio
200975.79%
20087.29%

In PUBALI BANK LTD. the debt-equity ratio is 75.79% in 2008 and 7.29% in 2009 which implies that lender contribution is 75.79% in 2008 for each TK of owner’s contribution, which is higher than2006. (Appendix-3)

4.3   Profitability Ratio:

The profitability ratio is very much important because it indicates the overall result of the firm. It is the outcome of all kinds of efficiency of the firm. It starts with different measurements that give result of profit.

4.3.1   Return on Equity

The return on equity implies the return that a firm generates against its common equity. So it is very important to increase return on equity. Because high return on equity increase net worth of the firm, value of the share, reputation of the firm, less risky for investment. So firm always try to increase its return on equity. The following formula is used to calculate return on equity:

Return on Equity= (Net Income/Total shareholder equity)*100

YearReturn on Equity
200921.24%
200822.00%

Here return on equity is higher in 2009 than 2008 so, in the year 2009 PUBALI BANK LTD. is less risky

for investment and increase net worth of the bank, value of the share and reputation than 2008.

(Appendix-4)

4.3.2   Return on Assets:

This is also another measure of profitability. Here the relationship is shown between profit and assets i.e. the efficiency of assets to produce profit. A higher return is desirable by the firm. So, profit is taken as a percentage of total assets. The following formula is used to calculate return on assets:

 Return on Assets= (Net Income/Total Asset)*100

YearReturn on Asset
20091.35 %
20081.47%

 

This ratio is commonly used to evaluate the management of bank and how they are performing. By comparing the ratio I see that PUBALI BANK LTD. has good performance of the management in 2009.  Appendix-5)

 4.4   Profit Margin:

It measures the relation between sales and profit. It is calculated by dividing net income by the operating revenues of the bank. Normally if return on equity and return on assets are higher the profit margin will also be higher. The following formula is used to calculate profit margin:

 Profit Margin= (Net Income/Operating Income)*100

YearProfit Margin
200923.98%
200825.68%

A high profit margin ratio is a sign of goods management. Here I see that PUBALI BANK LTD. has an increasing profit margin in 2009. (Appendix-6)

4.5   Assets Utilization:

This ratio represents the ability of the management to generate revenues by using assets. Higher ratio indicates greater efficiency of the management to use the firm’s assets. The formula of calculating asset utilization can be shown as follows:

Asset Utilization= (Operating Income/Total Asset)*100

YearAsset Utilization
20095.62%
20085.72%

 

In PUBALI BANK LTD. asset utilization is 5.62% in 2008 and 5.72% in 2009.. This ratio shows that PUBALI BANK LTD. has greater efficiency of management to use the bank’s assets in 2009.

(Appendix—7)

 4.6   Risk Ratio:

4.6.1   Equity Multiplier:

This ratio is an indicator of the firm’s degree of leverage and ultimately the risk. If the bank has opportunity to use the funds well and it does not have enough capital it can go for debt. And it may generate profit for the firm. It also reflects a choice of funds between debt and equity.

 Equity Multiplier= (Total Asset/Total Equity)

YearEquity multiplier
200915.75X
200815.28X

In this ratio PUBALI BANK LTD. has 15.75 X equity portion in total assets in the year 2008 and

15.28X in the year 2009 but which is ultimately lower than 2008. (Appendix-8)

4.7   Loan Ratio:

The loan ratio indicated the extent to which assets are devoted to loans as opposed to other assets including cash, securities, and equipment and so on. This is taken as a percentage of total assets.

Loan Ratio= (Net Loans/Total assets)*100

YearLoan Ratio
20094.81%
20080.48%

 ratio is decreasing over the period and we also found that there is a decreasing trend of the profit in the year 2009 because higher loan ratio implies higher profit.  (Appendix-9)

4.8    Loan to Deposit Ratio:

The bank is not required to take all the funds in its hands to meet obligation of the depositors. It always comes up with permanent level of fund that can either be invested or extended as loan to the borrowers to earn profit thereon.

 Loan to Deposit Ratio= (Net Loans/Total Deposits)*100

YearLoan to

Deposit Ratio20095.94%20085.60%

In the year 2009 loan to deposit ratio is 5.94 % and 5.60 % in the year 2008 which indicate that the PUBALI BANK LTD. granted more loan to the borrowers as a percentage of total deposit. (Appendix-10)

 5.1 Findings: The success of a bank depends on improved service delivery to its customers. Now so many banks in the country have emerged to cater to the needs of customers. But most of the banks in Bangladesh are used conventional banking system. The PUBALI BANK LTD. local office is not exception to these trends.

 From the overall discussion of this report I found out that the overall banking of PUBALI BANK LTD. satisfactory. Here I measure performance of PUBALI BANK LTD. through ratio analysis for two years.

 From this analysis I can say that PUBALI BANK LTD. did not have the greater margin of safety which indicates the lower liquidity in 2009 than 2008.The lenders finance ability decrease in 2009 than 2008.PUBALI BANK LTD. was less risky for investment and increase its net worth, its value of share and reputation has also increased in 2009.PUBALI BANK LTD. has done good performance of the management in 2009.Profit margin was higher which indicate good management for the year.

 Assets Utilization implies the greater efficiency of management to the banks assets in 2009.Loan paid decrease in 2009 that is the cause of lower profit. Loan to deposit ratio decrease in 2009 than 2008 which indicate that the PUBALI BANK LTD.   granted more loans to the borrowers as a percentage of total deposit in 2008.

 5.2 Recommendation: 

5.2.1: It is seen in the study that the liquidity ratio of P.B.L during 2008 & 2009. The liquidity of the bank should be reds by improving current & quick ratio.

 5.2.2: It is further seen that the loan to deposit ratio of the bank was lower during 2008 & 2009. Therefore the loan to deposit ratio must be improve by increasing need loan.

 5.2.3: Assets utilization ratio was also lower in 2008 & 2009. In case P.B.L. This ratio should also be increased by increasing operating income.

 5.2.4 Finally, at the end of the year we can see that although there have some difficulties but we can overcome those difficulties by removing all the weaknesses to develop the product effectively and grab more opportunity hidden in the banking industry and the bank should also increase the strength with their solid brand image, experience and skills of the employees. With their strengths PUBALI BANK LTD. can also reduce the threats existing in the market.

Conclusion

 The days are gone for banks to keep their functions confined with in the periphery of accepting deposit and lending money as well as making a profit. To cope up with the new millennium’s electronic banking, bank should reinvent and redesign itself for customer satisfaction. Some recommendations may be put forward in this regard.

The bank should launch some new products as automatic teller machine, money link, Tele bank for better customer service.
