Directors' Report and Chief Executive's Review
To Our Shareholders and Clients
As Salam Alaykoum Wa Rahmatouh Allah Wa Barakatouh
On behalf of the Board of Directors, we are pleased to present the annual report on your Bank's operations for
the year ended December 31, 2000.
ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE
The year 2000 was sluggish on the economic front. It was not till November that IMF approved the stand-by
arrangement (SBA) of $ 596 Million.
This means the reinstatement of Pakistan into the fold of International Financial Institutions assistance after more
than 18 months. Relations with these organizations had soured due to fiscal misreporting, unkept promises and
missed targets on the part of GOP in the past.
However, with the announcement of a credible reformist agenda and appointment of a highly regarded economic
team to implement it, the new military-led government has begun to be viewed as well-intentioned and serious
in addressing chronic structural imbalances.
The Government has to take bold and painful measures if the country is to achieve sustainable real GDP growth
and get out of the so-called 'debt trap'.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Notwithstanding the impact of the slow economy, reduction in foreign currency deposits, repayment of Federal
Government Deposits against sale proceeds of Special US Dollar Bonds and the drop in assets from Rs. 24.6
billion to Rs. 18.3 billion the Company's profit after tax of Rs. 288.7 million, climbed 59.2% compared to the previous
year. This is particularly satisfying since we have been through a significant reduction in profit regimes and the
resultant eroding of margins.
Financial discipline is, and will continue to be, a vital ingredient to our success, particularly in the areas of expense
control and financial risk. On the expense side we have undertaken a number of initiatives like downsizing and
outsourcing to increase efficiency. We now have one of the lowest overhead ratios in the industry. In absolute
terms the increase in administration and operating expenses is entirely due to an exceptional and non-recurring
item.
Our core activities are:
1. Morabaha Financings.
We are in the risk business and managing risk productively with detailed risk management systems can
create significant strategic advantages. It is important to diversify and develop systems and tests that will
allow us to anticipate and respond to the unexpected, whether it is financial market fluctuations, currency
changes or government edicts.
Following the reduction in deposits, Morabahas declined by28% to Rs. 11.9 billion. As a matter of
abundant precaution we have made a provision of Rs. 60.44 million against doubtful financings.
2. Capital Market and Investment Management Services.
The equity market continued to be depressed though there was a shod period of buoyancy at the beginning
of the year, which we successfully exploited. Continuing our prudent approach we have adjusted Rs.58.64
million for diminution in value of long-term investments.
3. Corporate Finance and Advisory Services.
This sector was sluggish in line with the general economic environment. We expect this division to remain
the weakest performer out of our businesses.
4. Private Client Services.
This sector continues to be very competitive. There was a healthy 124% improvement in the local currency
deposits. However, the foreign currency deposits dropped by almost 28% in the period under review,
and will reduce further in the coming year.
In view of the impressive results for the year, your Board of Directors proposes a dividend of 30%. The movement
in the profit appropriated are as under:

THE BOARD
During the year Mr. Muazzam Ali, the Vice-Chairman, announced his resignation from the Board due to health
reasons. Mr. Muazzam All had been associated with the organization since its inception. On behalf of the Board,
we would like to thank Mr. Muazzam Ali for his wise counsel, his efforts towards the promotion of Islamic Banking
and valuable contributions over the years and wish him good health and happiness for the future.
We owe a special thanks to all our employees for an outstanding year. It is the talents and skills of our staff that
differentiate us from competition.
Your company has the advantage of relationships, market leading position in its core businesses and balance
sheet strength. It is also able to offer clients a wide range of products and services, through associates.
We have Alhamdolillah developed strong, reliable and diverse income streams and given our focus on good
governance, we look to the future with optimism.
