Loans and advances 183,160,187 114,854,976
Deposits 203,709,970 108,516,651
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Asset Investment Bank earned a total income of Rs. 56.44 million during the year ended June 30,
1997. Out of the total income, 43.70%, was generated from profit/discount on loans and ad-
vances. Other sources include income from Government securities 0.91%, income from fee and
commission 18.83%, income from bank deposits 20.59% and dividend income 1.76%.
Due to various economic factors the year 1996-97 has seen a very deteriorating socio-economic
situation of the country. This also effected the capital market. The Stock market remained in
uncertain conditions and the investment activities were restricted. Therefore, we could not pro-
duce the results which were desired.
The auditors' observation in para (c) of their report has been explained in note 19 of notes to the
accounts.
RESOURCE MOBILIZATION
Despite continued restrictions on the government corporations to place their funds with nation-
alized banks only, and adverse market conditions our deposits have shown substantial rise of
87.7% from the previous year. We managed to generate additional resources to the tune of
Rs. 273.950 million in the shape of private placements under our Funds Management Scheme.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
Investment banks are performing an important economic activity. However, investment banks
need immediate attention of the policy makers for allowing them to enter into wider range of
activities without imposing unnecessary restrictions. Due to government's policy of deregula-
tion and privatization, which encourages rapid industrialization, it is expected that foreign in-
vestment would flow into Pakistan. The recently announced Investment policy, in which gov-
ernment has opened many non traditional sectors for foreign investment and introduced a new
concept of local and foreign joint ventures, is also likely to attract greater inflow of long term
investments. This would result in augmentation of capital market.
PATTERN OF SHAREHOLDING
The pattern of shareholding as at June 30, 1997 is annexed.
AUDITORS
The present auditors M/S Ford, Rhodes, Robson, Morrow, Chartered Accountants retire, and
being eligible, offer themselves for re-appointment.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Our thanks are due to the State Bank of Pakistan and the Corporate Law Authority for their
support and guidance. We also extend appreciation to depositors, clients and correspondents
for their trust and support and for recognition of Banks' services.
The Board would like to convey appreciation of the work and concerted efforts made by all
members of staff.
