An Appraisal of the Activities of Standard Chartered Bank

Abstract

This report has been prepared as a requirement of BBA program at East West University. After the completion of 40 courses a student has to complete a 12-week organizational internship. So after completion of 12-week internship at Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) this report has been prepared. The report is based on Standard Chartered Bank's corporate & client banking segments, the overall descriptions of the bank activities, its services, its position in the industry, and its competitive advantage. Standard Chartered bank is the leading foreign bank in Bangladesh. Much information has been collected from different published articles, brochures, web sites and previous internship reports. All the information incorporated in this report has been collected from primary sources as well as from secondary sources. Information of the bank is confidential & critical. Here I used the data that are available to the public, As a result, the report does not contain a deeper explanation of the scenarios. Past and present financial information that are confidential could not be obtained accurately. Similar to other banking institutions, SCB is also very conservative and strict in providing financial information. As many of the analysis on the obtained data are based on my sole interpretation, there may be some biases, Time constraint was another limitation restricting this report to a less detailed and analytical one. My supervisors are busy all the time and it was really difficult to get some time out of them.
