REPORT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S REVIEW |
|
|
| To
Our Shareholders and Clients |
|
| As
Salam Alaykoum Wa Rahmatouh Allah Wa Barakatouh. |
|
| On
behalf of your Board of Directors, it gives me great pleasure to |
|
| present
this report of your Bank's operations for the year ended |
|
| December
31, 1996. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| ECONOMIC
PERSPECTIVE |
|
|
| 1996
was a year of consolidation and recovery for AFIBL. Our |
|
| balance
sheet footing exhibited an increase of over 25% with a net |
|
| increase
of 26% in the total client's account base. Similarly, there |
|
| was
a corresponding increase of 26% in the morabaha financing, which |
|
| considerably
helped improve our profitability position. The Stock Ex- |
|
| change
index which was 2048 at the end of December 1994 and 1498 |
|
| at
December 1995, dropped further to 1340 at December'1996. |
|
|
|
|
| PERFORMANCE
REVIEW |
|
|
|
| It
is gratifying for me to report that the bank has made all round |
|
| progress
against the back drop of uncertainty and non-conducive |
|
| business
conditions. |
|
|
|
|
| While
overall business conditions remained difficult, this was more |
|
| so
in the case of investment banks. Domestic Savings mobilisation |
|
| was
affected by increased returns announced by the Government of |
|
| Pakistan
on its own savings schemes. Regulatory restrictions of |
|
| funds
with minimum one year maturity have made more difficult |
|
| foreign
currency mobilisation. Further, cost of domestic and foreign |
|
| currency
accounts has increased due to introduction of 1% cash re- |
|
| quirements
and 4% increase (from 15% to 19%) in liquidity ratio to be |
|
| maintained
by investment banks. The overall effect of the above has |
|
| led
to the erosion of profits and reduced margin for investment banks. |
|
|
|
| Against
this background, your bank recorded a net increase of 26% |
|
| in
its client's accounts base. This was utilised in carefully selected |
|
| morabaha
financing. which increased by 26%.Total Assets increased |
|
| by
25%, Revenue increased by 31% and Profit before Provisions and |
|
|
|
| Taxation
increased by 61%. Income from morabaha financing in- |
|
| creased
by 17.7% and income from Investments and Bank Place- |
|
| ments
increased by 81%. Fee income from Corporate Finance & |
|
| Advisory
Services was maintained during a difficult year. This was |
|
| made
possible by earning Rs. 120 million through completing major |
|
| transactions
in diversified revenue sources. Administrative & |
|
| Operating
Expenses were actually reduced by 2.4% by effective cost |
|
| management. |
|
|
|
| Our
four core businesses are: |
|
|
| I.
Morabaha Financing |
|
| This
continues to be the main source of bank's income and in |
|
| 1996
the total financing grew by 26% to Rs. 8.1 billion. We have |
|
| been
cautious in the valuation of risk but after careful scrutiny |
|
| financing. |
|
|
|
|
| II.
Capital Markets and Investment Management Services |
|
| The
market remained depressed with trading activity confined to |
|
| a
few selected scrips. |
|
|
|
|
| We
have followed policy of prudent progress. We believe that our |
|
| commitment
to strengthen your bank will strengthen our client |
|
| relationship
and market confidence. To demonstrate our policy in |
|
| actual
practice, we made a downward adjustment of Rs. 83.84 |
|
| investments
and provisions of Rs. 59.45 million in respect of |
|
| investments
under Purchase and Resale agreements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| III.
Corporate Finance and Advisory Services |
|
| Our
decision to diversify the sources of our revenue has paid off. |
|
| We
have been successful in completing major transactions and |
|
| earning
an income of Rs. 120 million. This is quite an achieve- |
|
| ment,
considering the lacklustre performance of the stock market, |
|
| continued
political uncertainty and a fast deteriorating economic |
|
| environment.
The continued decline in the share value severely |
|
| restricted
the investment bank's corporate activities on the stock |
|
| market
including Pre-IPO s and underwriting. |
|
|
|
|
| IV.
Private Client Services |
|
| We
continue to focus our efforts on building long term relation- |
|
| ship
and offering range of improved products, based on a |
|
| thorough
understanding of our customers' needs. |
|
|
| Customer
confidence in our Private Client Services is reflected in |
|
| long
term investment account, which are 35% of total customers' |
|
| balances.
These increased to Rs. 3.6 billion and overall balances |
|
| in
clients' accounts increased by 30% to Rs. 10.3 billion. |
|
|
|
|
| HUMAN
RESOURCES |
|
| Your
Directors believe that our most important asset is our staff. |
|
| 1996
was a year of recovery and rationalisation. We continue to |
|
| enhance
our corporate culture of fairness in recognition and com- |
|
| prehension.
We set corporate goals in open discussions and achieve |
|
| our
targets by worthy individual conduct, team work and focused |
|
| approach. |
|
|

|
| following
