Theoretical Aspect
Trend analysis
Deposit:
In deposit terminology, the terms Bank Deposit refers to an amount of money in
cash or check form or sent via a wire transfer that is placed into a bank account.
The target bank account for the Bank Deposit can be any kind of account that
accepts deposits.
Bank Deposit Example:
For example, a Bank Deposit is generally made when opening an account or in the
course of routine business or personal transactions that involve placing funds with
the bank for future use.
Growth rate of deposit:
Growth rate of deposit is calculated by=
(Current year-previous year)/previous year *100
Loans & Advances:
Loan- The act of giving money, property or other material goods to another party
in exchange for future repayment of the principal amount along with interest or
other finance charges. A loan may be for a specific, one-time amount or can be
available as open-ended credit up to a specified ceiling amount.

14. 14
Advance- Sums paid or received before the fulfillment of an obligation, such as
supply of goods or provision of services.
Growth rate of loan:
Growth rate of loan is calculated by =
(Current year-previous year)/previous year
Investment trends:
An asset or item that is purchased with the hope that it will generate income or
appreciate in the future. In an economic sense, an investment is the purchase of
goods that are not consumed today but are used in the future to create wealth. In
finance, an investment is a monetary asset purchased with the idea that the asset
will provide income in the future or appreciate and be sold at a higher price.
Growth rate of investment:
Growth rate of investment is calculated by=
(Current year-previous year)/previous year

15. 15
Status of loan classification
Classified loan:
Any bank loan that is in danger of default. Classified loans have unpaid interest
and principal outstanding, and it is unclear whether the bank will be able to recoup
the loan proceeds from the borrower. Banks usually categorize such loans as
adversely classified assets on their books.
Substandard loan:
Bank loan or other interest-earning asset that is protected inadequately by current
net worth and paying capacity of the borrower, or the collateral pledged. Loans
classified as substandard are characterized by the distinct possibility that the lender
will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Some loss of interest is
anticipated, or may have already occurred, but loss of principal is considered
unlikely.
Doubtful Loan:
Loan in which full repayment is considered uncertain. Some losses are expected. A
loan classified as doubtful has all the characteristics of a substandard loan well-
defined credit weaknesses, with the added characteristic that credit weaknesses
make full collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable. Fifty
percent of loans classified as doubtful are deducted from adjusted bank capital in
computing regulatory capital adequacy.

16. 16
Bad/Loss:
A classified loan which period is 1 year and seems no chance to recover the money
from borrower can be traced as Bad/Loss loan.
Ratio Analysis
Current Ratio:
A liquidity ratio that measures a company's ability to pay short-term obligations.
The Current Ratio formula is:
Debt ratio:
A ratio that indicates what proportion of debt a company has relative to its assets.
The measure gives an idea to the leverage of the company along with the potential
risks the company faces in terms of its debt-load.

17. 17
Credit to Deposit Ratio:
The amount of a bank's loans divided by the amount of its deposits at any given
time. The higher the ratio, the more the bank is relying on borrowed funds, which
are generally more costly than most types of deposits. Forming part of the
Liquidity ratios of a bank, this ratio is often used by policy makers to determine the
lending practices of financial institutions. The higher the Loan-to-deposit ratio, the
more the bank is relying on borrowed funds.
Formula = Net Loans / Total Deposits
Cost Income Ratio:
The cost-to-income ratio is a key financial measure, particularly important in
valuing banks. It shows a company’s costs in relation to its income. To get the
ratio, divide the operating costs (administrative and fixed costs, such as salaries
and property expenses, but not bad debts that have been written off) by operating
income. The ratio gives investors a clear view of how efficiently the firm is being
run – the lower it is, the more profitable the bank will be. Changes in the ratio can
also highlight potential problems: if the ratio rises from one period to the next, it
means that costs are rising at a higher rate than income, which could suggest that
the company has taken its eye off the ball in the drive to attract more business.
Cost Income ratio = Operating Cost/Operating Income

better for the bank for more investment, so the bank should try to maintain high
growth rate for deposit.

bank to earn more profit but the growth rate is fluctuating so the bank should try to
invest more in safe sector after maintaining the required liquidity for earnings.

Interpretation:
Here the analysis of loan classification of 2010and 2011 show that, the percentage

amount of bad/loss loan and also the amount of total classified loans.

In this analysis we can show that the current ratios of the bank are fluctuating
yearly and the past two years this ratio shows that the bank has less current asset to
meet up its liabilities which is not a good sign for the bank.

Interpretation:
In this problem analysis we see that the percentage of ratio has increased from 2008
to 2009 and 2010 but decreased from 2010 to 2011 and 2012 in the bank because
their asset was increased at a higher rate than from the last year. Here the bank
maintains approximately same level of debt ratio from past five years. This is a good
sign for the bank.

6.1 Finding and analysis:
 We find the deposit growth of 2009-12. The rate of deposit was decreasing
in 2010-11 but increasing in 2012.
 The loan rate was decreasing in the year of 2010 to 2012.
 Investment growth was decreasing over 2010-2011 but highly increased in
2012.
 Classified loan situation or percentage is increasing year to year.
 We found the Current ratio, Debt ratio, Cost income ratio and Credit to
deposit ratio.
 Found the financial position of BRAC Bank at a glance over 2009-2012.
6.2 Conclusion:
Overall the financial position of BRAC Bank is quite well over the previous year.
But somehow in some specific area it’s doing not so good. It’s may be either the
operational or technical fault of bank management and finance department of the
bank. The BRAC Bank can overcome these situations quickly because as we all
know it’s one of the leading banks of our country.
