1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Bank Asia has been launched by a group of successful entrepreneurs with recognized standing in the

society. The management of the Bank consists of a team led by senior bankers with decades of

experience in national and international markets. The senior management team is ably supported by a

group of professionals many of whom have exposure in the international market.

It set milestone by acquiring the business operations of the Bank of Nova Scotia in Dhaka, first in the

banking history of Bangladesh. It again repeated the performance by acquiring the Bangladesh

operations of Muslim Commercial Bank Ltd. (MCB), a Pakistani bank.

In the year 2003 the Bank again came to the limelight with oversubscription of the Initial Public Offering

of the shares of the Bank, which was a record (55 times) in our capital market's history and its shares

commands respectable premium.

The asset and liability growth has been remarkable. Bank Asia has been actively participating in the

local money market as well as foreign currency market without exposing the Bank to vulnerable

positions. The Bank's investment in Treasury Bills and other securities went up noticeably opening up

opportunities for enhancing income in the context of a regime of gradual interest rate decline.

Bank Asia Limited started its service with a vision to serve people with modern and innovative banking

products and services at affordable charge. Being parallel to the cutting edge technology the Bank is

offering online banking with added delivery channels like ATM, Tele-banking, SMS and Net Banking.

And as part of the bank's commitment to provide all modern and value added banking service in

keeping with the very best standard in a globalize world.

Till now all Banks are operating their business in Urban and semi urban area leaving large numbers of

un-banked rural people. To connect the geographically dispersed population to banking net has started

Agent Banking recently through Bank’s authorized agent. Bank Asia is the pioneer have successfully

introduced Agent Banking in 6(six) Upazila under Munshiganj District as a pilot Project. This success has

given the confidence to expand the project all over Bangladesh.

The agent banking model is one in which banks provide financial services through nonbank agents, such

as educated individuals, chain grocery stores, retail outlets, post offices, pharmacies or NGOs. This

model allows banks to expand services into areas where they do not have sufficient incentive or

capacity to establish a formal branch, which is particularly true in rural and poor areas where as a result

a high percentage of people are unbanked.

The term financial inclusion refers to a broad financial system that provides access to financing,

mobilization of savings, credit allocation, risk management as well as payment services. Financial

inclusion refers to both the adequate provision of services by the financial institutions as well as the

appropriate uptake or use of these services by all segments of the population. Although it is just one

aspect of financial inclusion, an integrated payment system is a critical component of financial

inclusion.
