WEAKNESSES OF THE NATIONAL OF BANK
Chapter # 7
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT
I have highlighted some weak areas of NBP in financial perspectives in previous chapter. Here
in this chapter some recommendation for the improvement of its weak areas.
Asset Effectiveness
National Bank of Pakistan should analyze its assets portfolio. NBP is needed to get rid of less
effective and less productive assets. All those advances which are declared as non-performing
should be taken in a position that they start their performance. New investments, advances, and
loans should be granted only to the persons that fulfill the very requirements of loan applicants.
Nepotism culture should be discouraged.
CHAPTER # 8
CONCLUSIONS
I studied the organization thoroughly. I made following conclusions about National Bank of
NBP serves the purpose of Nation’s Bank.
Federal government, provincial government, and local government accounts are
primarily managed by NBP.
