As the functions of the Agricultural Development Finance Corporation
and Agricultural Development Bank were similar and since both were
working with capital provided by the Government, they were merged
into one organization known as Agricultural Development Bank of
Pakistan on February 18. 1961. The Agricultural Development Bank of
Pakistan was a banking company for the purpose of the Banking
Companies Ordinance and the State Bank of Pakistan Act.
On 14 December 2002 the Federal Government has converted the
Agricultural Development Bank of Pakistan (ADBP) into Zarai Taraqiati
Bank Ltd (ZTBL) and the new venture has started its operation withimmediate effect. The new corporate structure redefines the banks
statue as a public limited company with an independent Board of
Directors promulgated under the presidential ordinance which, aims at
ensuring good governance, autonomy, delivering high quality, viable
and timely financial services to a greater number of clientele in the
agricultural and rural segment of the country with adequate returns to
the stakeholder.
After this incorporation all the assets and liabilities of ADBP becamethe assets and liabilities of ZTBL. This restructure was carried out withthe aim to improve the working and role of bank in the agriculturaldevelopment.
The bank is completely owned by the government and it has headoffice in Islamabad.

The credit rating of the bank is due to the reason that bank enjoys
sovereign guarantee of the federal government that covers its debtobligations to State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and ensures safety ofdeposits under the Banks (Nationalization) Act 1974. The bankslending book is largely funded through SBPs credit lines whilecontribution from deposits remains nominal. ZTBL is actively exploringdifferent options for resource mobilization includingbilateral/multilateral arrangements with financial institutions.

Transformation of ZTBL to R.F.I of the
country and road to excellence.The conversion of ADBP into ZTBL had a conditionality of the AsianDevelopment Bank (ADB) loan framework as per which a restructuringexercise was initiated. The restructuring process entailed ADBs RuralFinance Sector Development Program (RFSDP) with the objective totransform ZTBL into a sustainable Rural Finance Institution. It alsoincluded the up-gradation of Information technology (IT) infrastructurefor which funds from ADBs loan were to be utilized.
Healthy and well-functioning rural finance markets are directly relatedto achieving the two key national policy objectives of acceleratingrural/agriculture growth and reducing poverty. The realization of theseobjectives depends on the simultaneity of developments in ruralfinance and non-financial markets to foster the creation of diversesources of rural finance to build sustainable financial institutions, andstimulate products and capital flows in the rural sector. For this, ruralfinance must be seen as an integral part of equitable developmentwithin a framework of macroeconomic stability.
For the majority, access to affordable rural finance services is alsoimportant to enable them to compete in the post-World TradeOrganization scenario. Inability to compete because of high financialcosts could reduce income of the majority of farmers and rural clients,particularly the small and subsistence clients. Lack of access toaffordable rural finance services will also prevent the clients fromswitching to non-farm activities.
The ZTBL restructuring plan covering the following;
Governance: establish an environment that facilitates goodgovernance and accountability;
Systems: modernize operations through use of technology,networking, and communication tools;
14
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL

Business processes: streamline products and delivery systemsso as to reduce transaction costs, simplify operations, andincrease outreach;
Products and services: introduce products and services thatare financially economically viable;

The reforms shall establish ZTBL as a key R.F.I of the country. Byexpanding its private sector role, the bank aims to establish network ofhigh tech rural and agri. financial services through intermediationsunder public private participation and whole-sale -retail lendingmechanism.

SWOT analysis ZTBLStrengths:
The total assets of the Bank stand at Rs.84 billion with authorized capital of
Rs.25 billion as of 31.12.2005, with a nation-wide working strength comprises5500 employees.
The share of ZTBL in total national institutional agricultural credit remains around
35%.
ZTBL has a recovery ratio of 85%.
ZTBL has a social network of MCOs that work in every remote corner of country,
where any other commercial bank cant dare to work.
Utility bills, hajj schemes applications are being collected by ZTBL.
It has introduced locker facility in some limited branches.
They have good cooperation with farmers; they meet them at least one time
in a week, which produces good cooperation among them.
Weaknesses:
ZTBL has a less number of people who have technical skill of computer and
information technology.
Up till now many branches could not be brought to online system.
As the ZTBL has to deal with the illiterate farmers that is why it has to keep itself
as simple as the farmers mentality. The employees are promoted after a very long time that causes a distress among
employees.
Many branches still practice their daily transaction by book, which makes banking
laborious and time consuming.
Branches of ZTBL are ill equipped, less and poor quality furniture is provided.
40
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
41/106
Internship Report on Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. 2010
Record keeping is poorly practiced.
Opportunities:
ZTBL has a great potential to serve general banking. Deposit system introduction can generate funds for the bank.
By making investment in new areas.
Senior employees compliance with coordinators can enhance their
working abilities.
By developing technical education, the bank can increase its progress.
Threats:
Book keeping is proven to be a greater threat for ZTBL as there is dangerof record loss.
There is no availability of online record which can produces confusions
among loonies.
Although the recovery ratio is round about 85% but it is only window
dressing and not the actual one.
There is no maintenance of duties by the staff.
Their interest ratio is round about 9% per annum, which is very low from
other commercial banks.

51
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
52/106
Internship Report on ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Ltd.
2010
One of the marketing strategies of Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited is the increasingflow of rural credit. As we know that the agriculture is the crucial contributor to thenational economy:
Contributes a quarter to GDP.
Employs 47% labor force.
Over 50% of industrial production comes from agro business.
Earns (directly or indirectly) 70% of export revenue.
Provides livelihood to 67% rural households.
Vast Majority of poor live in rural areas (nearly 80% of all poor live in rural
areas).
Poor are mainly dependent on agriculture for their food and livelihood
security Livestock is an important of livelihood for the poor.
Agricultural growth contributes most to poverty reduction. Through forward and backward linkages, agriculture. Contributes to rural
economy (farm and non farm) and creates livelihood for poor in the non-
farm sector.
The main source of agricultural growth includes:
Dates, Mangoes, Citrus and Potatoes are high value potential horticultural
crops.
Floriculture is fast growing sub sector, influencing domestic as well as
export markets.
Remunerative opportunities exist for entrepreneurs in agri-business
identified high return agri-businesses include:
Livestock fattening.

Internship Report on Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. 2010
Milk collection and chilling.
Cut flowers.
Fruit processing.
Accelerated growth of agriculture, especially of high valueagricultural activities, will continue to be cornerstone of Government overallstrategy to reduce poverty. ZTBL and micro-finance institutions; need toincrease flow of rural credit.
During 2005-06 ZTBL disbursed Rs48 billion credits and total credit 137
billion, meeting less than one third of the total demand for Credit.
Cumbersome legal process and lack of political will creates problem for
loan recovery.
Access to credit remains limited and restrictive by lengthy processes
and smallholders are generally left out. But in ZTBL the process is too
shortened and easily accessible that all the smallholders are
entertained.
MARKETING STRATEGIES OF ZTBL:
There are a number of marketing strategies of Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limitedsome of these strategies are listed below;
Crop Insurance:
The Benazir Credit Card Schemes and Crop Loan Insurance Schemeshave also been introduced for the benefit of cotton, rice and other cropsgrowers. Crop insurance Schemes have been considered an impracticaldream by the insurance sector for quite long, but innovative solutionsdesigned by National Insurance have made it a practical option. NICL andNational Bank of Pakistan have prepared an Agri Loan Insurance Policyproperly supported and backed by the re-insurance arrangements at areasonable competitive cost. Through this collaboration, agri loans of more
53
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
54/106
Internship Report on ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Ltd.
2010
than Rs.30 billion have been provided insurance cover. Similarly, ZTBLhas also been provided the facility of Agri Insurance Cover.
Tractor Scheme:
The Tractor Scheme was launched to provide tractors to the farmers at asubsidized price. A large number of tractors are to be distributed amongstthe farmers on very low interest rates. The ZTBL is supplying highefficiency irrigation system to farmers to improve agricultural activity inareas of scarce water. ZTBL provides tractor to farmers that have 10 acresagricultural land. The recovery of loan is on easy terms. The farmers haveto pay back the loan in 8 years. The installment is semiannually
Which is round about 50,000 rupees? In this way the farmers can easilypay back the amount.
Availability of Quality Seeds:
ZTBL decided to ensure the supply of quality seed, one of the mostimportant inputs in crop production, to have maximum yields in all crops.
As a result, production of almost all major crops, including wheat, rice,maize, gram, moong and pearl millet, rose significantly. A special project ofimproving vegetables seeds at local level has also been initiated.
Agricultural Loans:
During 2008-2009, the Government earmarked Rs.250 billion, higher by20% over the preceding year, for banks to finance the farming community.This amount for the current fiscal is Rs.260 billion for major and minorcrops, orchards and forestry. Credit limit was increased because of rising
prices of all inputs including electricity. Crop loan insurance scheme wasalso introduced to enhance the access of farmers to agricultural loans.Provision of agricultural credit to farmers facilitated them to procure thecostly inputs in order to ensure the target planting and production ofvarious crops. A new Agriculture Mode Village Program has been initiatedin 26 villages under the auspices of Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited
54
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
55/106
Internship Report on Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. 2010
(ZTBL). The objective is to organize the farming community at thevillage level ensuring farmers easy access to agri credit.
ZTBL and Field Work:
One of the main marketing strategies of Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited is thefield work. Through which the ZTBL officers visit the agricultural land andmeet the people, in this way they are able to know about the forming landand also about the people. And the people too became conversant with theofficers and in this way they are able to know about the lending schemes.ZTBL is also promoting hajj and umrah schemes.
BUSINESS PROCESS ANALYSIS:
ZTBL AND ENHANCEMENT OF CROP PRODUCTIVITY:
The economy of Pakistan is predominately agrarian in character. Despiteprogress in other sectors the agriculture sector is contributing about 25% towardsthe GDP. About 67.5% of the total population lives in rural areas and theagriculture is main source for their livelihood. About 44% of the labor force isengaged in agriculture sector and about 70% of the direct and indirect income isgenerated from this sector.The agriculture sector is multi-segmental. Majority of our farm communitycomprised of subsistence farmers who are not in a position to use high qualityseeds, sufficient fertilizers and improved farm implements due To the lack offinances available to them. Lack of finance is one of the main reasons for low per
acre productivity in our agriculture. The matter of enhancing agriculturalproductivity therefore largely depends on the availability of finance and creditfacility available to the farmers in their respective areas (ADBL, 1996). Everymodern business is operated on capital or borrowed capital. Similarly, farmingalso requires capital. The need for farm credit in increasing production andeffective utilization of farm resources is quite clear. Farming not only requirecredit in the form of improved seeds, fertilizer and modern implements but also
55
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
56/106
Internship Report on ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Ltd.
2010
requires liquid capital for financing harvesting, haulage of produce and othersimilar farm operation (ADBP, 1996).In Pakistan there are two major sources of agricultural credit, non-institutional
and institutional sources. The non-institutional credit suppliers include friends;neighbors and professional moneylenders are the main source of credit in thecountry. Institutional sources comprise of cooperative banks, Zarai TaraqiatiBank Ltd. (ZTBL), nationalized and privatized commercial banks and Taccavicredits (ADBP, 1996). Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. (ZTBL) consolidated andintensified its operation to play an effective role in financing of farm investmentsto modernize agriculture, increase farm production and raise farm income. Thebank continued to push forward the on-going programmes and projects relatingto provision of credit and technology to targets groups covering landless,subsistence, small farmers and rural women through its credit programmed(Government of Pakistan, 2001).
The objectives of the study were as under:
Analyze the utilization of credit by small farmers in the study area,
Compare the effects of utilization of credit on crop production and income
of beneficiaries without credit and with credit.
Suggest measures as to how the present credit scheme can further be
improved.
The present study was conducted to examine the utilization and effects ofshort-term credit from Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. (ZTBL) at Tehsil Kabul area ofdistrict Swat in August 2003. Eighty respondents were selected in which fortywere the beneficiaries of ZTBL and the remaining forty were the non-
beneficiaries selected from the same area. Paired sample t-test was used tocompare the production and income of the beneficiaries without credit andwith credit. Independent sample t-test was used to compare the productionand income of beneficiaries with non-beneficiaries. On overall basisbeneficiaries farmer utilized 78.84% of the amount of credit for the purpose itwas received. While the remaining amount i.e. 21.15% was mis-utilized. Peracre production of beneficiaries with credit for tomato, wheat, maize and onion

were 170.4 maunds (1 maund equal to 50kg), 24.6 maunds, 39.4 maunds and152.4 maunds, respectively. In case of beneficiaries without credit it was139.6 maunds, 18.93 maunds, 30.3 maunds and 130.7 maunds, respectivelyon per acre basis. While in case of non-beneficiaries it was 144.5 mounds,19.25 maunds, 32.2 maunds and 135.3 maunds, respectively on per acrebasis. Net return of beneficiaries with credit for tomato, wheat, maize andonion was Rs.17410.9, Rs. 3908.67, Rs. 7695.75, and Rs. 16450.5,respectively on per acre basis. While beneficiaries without credit it was Rs.11863.21, Rs. 2195.54, Rs. 5981.17, and Rs. 10968.9, respectively on peracre basis. In case of non-beneficiaries it was Rs. 13616.85, Rs. 2830.15, Rs.6600.88, and Rs. 13465, respectively on per acre basis.
ZTBL AND BUSINESS SCHEMES:
ZTBL (Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd) formely known as Agriculture Development Bankof Pakistan has been struggling since the last couple of decades to optimize itsoperational efficiency. There has been tremendous pressure both by the State
Bank of Pakistan and BOD to design and implement an effective EnterpriseResource Planning (ERP) system using Information Communication Technology
to enhance Regulatory Compliance, offer better KPI monitoring and improvedreal time Management Information System enabling the Bank to launch new ICTbased schemes/products for farmers and HR Performance ManagementSystem..
After a considerable lapse of time; ZTBL has experienced in the last two years amost productive growth. The executive management has managed tosuccessfully convert the highly demoralized non-productive HR workforce intoproductivity mode. Through the newly revamped productive HR workforce theBank has posted an overall 1.6 billion rupees in profits..
The Information Systems Division has been reorganized and revamped throughthe induction of highly skilled and seasoned human resource and has enabledthe bank to do on-line loan processing using the banks own newly establishedWide Area Network (WAN). The efforts of the ISD development team towards thesuccessful modification of the architecture of the legacy loan processing system
57
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
58/106
Internship Report on ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Ltd.
2010
has resulted in effectively conserving more than twenty years of continuousbusiness processes improvements of investment.
Through the successful modification in the architecture of the existing legacysystem; ISD has enabled the field offices to run real-time online processing jobscentrally running on the servers at Head Office Data center.
This improvement now offers the entire portfolio of products and services to thebranch offices. The Branch staff can now entertain loan processing application,recovery and/or release of installments under products like regular loan, SadaBahar, White revolution etc on the terminals in the branches.
This radical new development in the Banks ICT infrastructure has offeredtremendous operational efficiency. For example in the past the Branch office staff
conducted business manually and then hardcopies of the transaction data wasmanually fed into the system on a weekly basis at the zonal offices.
Upon completion of the data entry of all branch offices within a zone wascompleted, the Zonal office would then dispatch the consolidated data on tapecartridges through courier services to the head office. Due to this process; at
Times considerable delays were experienced by the Bank for the compilation ofconsolidated nationwide bank position.
There had been numerous monitoring, reporting and performance managementissues just because of the fact that HO was not able to have complete digitizedrecord of business transactions. The newly revamped Centralized loanprocessing system would now enable the bank to improve the operationalefficiency tenfold with an overall reduction of operational expenses.
The Bank has selected ORACLE ERP in order to revamp the entire BackOfficeoperations. In this regard, ORACLE University is currently conducting a two andhalf months long rigorous training program for more than 120 bankers.
In order to fulfill State Bank regulatory compliance with reference to themaintenance of NADRA verified client records; ISD has successfully conceived,
58
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
59/106
Internship Report on Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. 2010
designed and developed an integrated end to end loan processing system bymapping the ZTBL loan processing system to NADRA data base with a furtherintegration to the State Bank of Pakistans eCIB database.
Also the Loan processing system, Deposit Management system, NADRA
verification and Customer Credit worthiness are all seamlessly integratedtogether. Since a few months ago, Data Cleansing in conformity to SBP andZTBL business procedure was conceived as difficult, if not impossible as theentire physical record was available in the branches and there was no interfaceeven at Zonal offices to verify physical record with computerized loan processingsystem, NADRA and SBP-CIB system.
ISD has also designed, developed and implemented Deposit ManagementSystem at Branches as an extension of loan processing system. Most moderndatabase management system is being used to digitize the existing semi manual
deposit management system.
DMS has been designed to allow the bankers to post transaction themselves byusing most modern concepts like photo and signature verification on the screen.With the deployment of the new system; all records would now be verified byNADRA, checked for credit worthiness from the State Bank.
It has been planned that by the end of June, 2008, more than 250 brancheswould be equipped with necessary hardware with preinstall DMS and NADRAverified clients from on-line processing system.

COMPETETIVE STRATEGY OF ZTBL
COMPETETIVE STRATEGY:
The strategy by which the organizations producing same or substitute productscompete with each other. The fourth specialized government-owned bank, ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Ltd. (ZTBL), needs financial and operational restructuring. Thisbank is highly strategic, as it provides about one third (31.7%) of all credit to theagriculture sector. Different public sector approaches have failed in the past to

transform ZTBL. The most important unresolved issue is its excessive debtliabilities as well as shareholding pattern. SBP has proposed that theGovernment should pave the way for its eventual privatization, considered to becritical for augmenting its scale and efficiency.
Agricultural Credit:
Credit requirements of the farming sector have been increasing over the yearsmainly due to the rise in the use of fertilizer, pesticides and mechanization. Inorder to cope with the Agriculture increasing demand for agricultural credit,institutional credit to farmers is being provided through Zarai Taraqiati BankLimited (ZTBL), Commercial Banks, Punjab Provincial Cooperative Bank Ltd(PPCBL) and Domestic Private Banks. The Government has allocated Rs 160
billion for agriculture credit disbursements for the year 2006-07 which is 23.1percent higher than the allocation of the preceding year i.e. Rs 130 billion. Theallocations, however, are totally voluntary and indicative in nature as themandatory allocations policy has been totally phased out and the allocations forcommercial banks have also been made indicative. The elimination of mandatorycredit allocations coupled with active involvement of commercial banks inagricultural finance is major milestone achieved towards mainstreaming of
Agricultural finance in the countrys financial system. The flow of necessaryfunding to the sector will now be ensured through conducive policy andregulatory environment, policy advocacy and promotional initiatives andmonitoring of agri-disbursements and portfolio build-up plans. Out of the total
Credit target of Rs 160 billion, Rs 80 billion were allocated to commercial banks,Rs 48 billion to ZTBL, Rs 9 billion to Punjab Provincial Cooperative Bank Ltd.,and Rs 23 billion to Domestic Private Commercial Banks.

To enhance the competitiveness, ZTBL is focusing on continuing to broaden anddeepen the financial system further. To prevail in the industry Zarai TaraqiatiBank is
Reviewing the actual behavior and conduct of banks related to its structure
and than taking the required actions.
Resisting contestability. Development of non-bank financial intermediaries is promoting
competitiveness
Increase demand for advances results in a need for higher deposit
mobilization which increases competition.
Interest rates in Pakistan are usually non-transparent. Ninety percent of
deposits are remunerated through profit and loss sharing arrangementsrather than at explicit interest known to the depositor in advance. But inZTBL the interest rates are known to the depositor in advance. That is agood competitive strategy and due to this strategy, the bank is on the way
to success. To improve transparency in the pricing and documentation of loans, ZTBL
has been barred from including any clause in the loan documents thatcould allow them to change lending rates unilaterally and make
Explicit all service charges so that the borrower will not incur hidden charges
during the term of the loan. Growth in agricultural credit recovered in financial year 2008, after a
relative slowdown in the preceding two years. The agricultural creditdisbursements rose to Rs. 211 billion in financial year 2008, up by 25.4percent. The domestic private banks fared well both in disbursements andin the recoveries while specialized banks could not maintain their marketshare. A strong resurge in the number of borrowers is also a welcome

development during financial year 2008. The number of borrowersincreased to 1.28 million during financial year 2008 as against a decliningtrend in the previous three years. Despite, rise in interest rates amidmonetary tightening, a significant increase in agricultural credit andnumber of borrowers during financial year 2008 is principally attributed to5 Agricultural credit disbursement target for financial year 2009 is set atRs. 250 billion. The main thing to say is that about 25% of this agriculturalcredit is taken from ZaraiTaraqiati Bank Limited. The structural changes inagricultural credit are shown below which manifests that the major share ofagricultural credit is received from specialized banks and ZTBL is theleading one.

Redemption of loan
On the payment of all the dues by the loanee (principal + interest), hecan free his land (or any other security provided) from any chargecreated by bank for the purpose of loan. For this purpose he will haveto present the following documents:
1. Application for redemption
2. Stamp Paper of rupee 20
3. Last receipt of amount paid
4. Cheque book (if issued)
When the loanee provides these documents to assistant officer (Or anyofficer appointed for these sort of work), the assistant officer asks thepeon to bring the Loan Case File of the borrower. After the file isreceived by the assistant officer, he checks the documents thatwhether all the documents are there in the file. Then he makesrequired entries in the Passbook. These entries usually made on thepage 28 and 30. The example of entries is given below.
The following entries are made on page 28.
The entire loanincluding interest hasbeen paid by theloanee.
See page number 16and block number 3for detail.
(Here page number 16shows the numberand date of lastcharge createdagainst the land of

After these entries the officer then sends the file to Manager forsignature. On approval from the Manager for the RedemptionApplication the assistant officer attaches all afore said documents within the file and record in the File Movement Register that file hasbeen moved from the record room for the redemption purpose.
Than the file is send to AMO (Assistant Manager Operation) for furtherprocess. The loanee is given the date of next week to collect hisPassbook. During this period AMO checks the record of the loanee toconfirm that the entire due amount with respect to that particular loanhas been paid and then he signs to give approval to assistant officer toissue Passbook to the loanee. The AMD (Assistant Manager) andManger both also sign the notice issued in the name of Patwari and
Tehsildar that the land can be transferred to the loanee as the loan hasbeen fully paid by him.
Then file again comes to the assistant officer, he checks the signatureboth in the notice and Passbook and then stamped both. Now thePassbook is ready to issue. Before issuing Passbook the officer recordthat passbook is issued to the loanee in the Dispatched Register. Onthe issuance of Passbook to the loanee, the officer verifies that theperson receiving the documents is the original owner of the land whichis mortgaged with the bank. After getting the Passbook, the loaneegoes to Patwari and Tehsildar for the change of record back to hisname.
The one thing which is interesting here is obtaining Stamp Paper fromthe borrower. This is not a requirement but bank has made it practiceso that if in the near future, it finds that some amount is still due bythe borrower than it can write on the stamp paper whatever it wantsand then can claim the due amount from the borrower. This is
70
7/30/2019 Internship Report ZTBL
71/106
Internship Report on Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd. 2010
precautionary measure adopted by bank because once the Passbookissued to the borrower and the land again transferred to his name, thebank will be in no position to recover any amount which isunexpectedly left due.
The redemption process in short can be described as thefollowing:
Submission of Application
Acceptance of application by manager
Record of file in the File Movement Register
Entries made in the passbook
File send to AMO for checking of loan status
On approval from AMO, the Manger and Assistant manger signed
the notice to issue Passbook
The passbook dispatched to loanee with notice to Tehsildar to
transfer land back to his name
After the land is transferred to the loanee name, if he wishes he
can withdraw the amount from his current account and can closehis account.
Usually the loanees do not redeem their land because they want toavoid the cost and wastage of time when in the future they againhave to gain loan from the bank. So, they usually remain the land inthe name of the bank even after they have paid the whole loanamount. During my internship I have seen people who has paid loanmore than 10 years ago but they came to bank after such long timeto redeem their land and the reason behind their redeem was thatthey want to transfer it to someone others name otherwise theymay not come for redeem.
I have also seen one of the clients who has p
