Remittance and Pay order Section:

If we consider the present situation of our country then carrying cash is not safety and risky. For safety purpose one can use banking channel and ensure the maximum security of their money. That’s why money can be transferred from one place to another through banking channel. This is called remittance. Remittances of funds are one of the most important aspects of the commercial banks in rendering services to its customer.

Sending money from one place to another place for the customer is another important service of banks and this service is an important part of countries payment system. For this service people especially businessman can transfer funds one place to another very quickly.

B. Demand Draft:

A DD application form is given to the customer. Customer fills up the form which includes the name of the drawer, name of the payee, amount of money to be sent, name of the drawer branch, signature and address of the drawer. The customer may pay in cash or may transfer the amount from his/her account. After the money is paid and the form is sealed and signed, it is given to the DD issuing desk. DD block has two parts one for bank and another for the customer. Bank’s part contains issuing date with drawer’s name and sum of the money and name of the drawer branch. Customer’s part contains the name of the payee, issuing date, sum of the money and drawer branch.

After filling up the DD, form is given in the DD issue register and at the same time the bank issue a DD confirmation slip addressing the drawer branch .This confirmation slip is entered into the DD advice issue register and a number is put on the confirmation slip from the same resister. Letter on the bank mail this slip to the drawer branch. Then the DD from is sealed with a protectoral machine to protect from material alteration. Next the customer signs on the back of the DD and takes him/her part of DD.

 

The demand draft (DD) is a negotiable instrument under section 85(A) of the negotiable instrument act -1881. DD is issued in favor of the customer who maintains an account with this branch. Demand Draft is an order of issuing bank on another branch of the same bank to pay specified some of money to the payee on demand. It is generally issued when the customer wants to remit money in any place, which is outside the remittance house area of issuing bank.

Procedure for issuing Demand Draft:

A DD application form is given to the customer. Customer fills up the form which includes the name of the drawer, name of the payee, amount of money to be sent, name of the drawee branch, signature and address of the drawer. The customer may pay in cash or may transfer the amount from his/her account. After the money is paid and the form is sealed and signed, it is given to the DD issuing desk. DD block has two parts one for bank and another for the customer. Bank’s part contains issuing date with drawer’s name and sum of the money and name of the drawee branch. Customer’s part contains the name of the payee, issuing date, sum of the money and drawee branch.

After filling up the DD, form is given in the DD issue register and at the same time the bank issue a DD confirmation slip addressing the drawee branch .This confirmation slip is entered into the DD advice issue register and a number is put on the confirmation slip from the same resister. Letter on the bank mail this slip to the drawee branch. Then the DD from is sealed with a protectoral machine to protect from material alteration. Next the customer signs on the back of the DD and takes him/her part of DD.

 

Payment of Demand Draft:

For payment of demand draft paying branch first has to confirm that the Demand Draft is not fake one. First bank check the “Test Code” mentioned on the draft. If “Test Code” agrees then believe the DD is not bogus and authority makes payment. For further confirmation the issuing bank sends an advice about the DD to the paying branch. Without advice the paying branch does not make payment.

 

Role of a drawn on Bank:

The I.B.C.A. (Inter Branch Credit Advice) dispatched to drawn on branch. Issuing an I.B.C.A. implies that the branch is being credited to whom it is issued. I.B.C.A. contain the controlling number .Lodgment is given after receiving an I.B.C.A. Necessary entry is given in a register called “DD-In-Issuing branch. Controlling number of the I.B.C.A. should match the serial number of this DD in register.

 

Cancellation of a demand draft:

If the holder of the instrument wants to cancel it, he should submit a request letter in this regard. Issuing branch then sends I.B.D.A. to the drawn on branch against the I.B.C.A. which was sent previously.

 

Different between Pay order & Demand Draft:

There are some differences between pay order & demand draft, which are given below:

  • In case of Demand Draft both the payer and payee need to maintain accounts. But there   is no certain rule for pay order.
  • PO is used in the same remittance area; DD is used for all kinds. DD cannot be done in   the same remittance area.
  • DD is drawn on a certain bank office. But there is on certain rules for PO.

C. Personal Cheque:

Cheque to be remittance   through   the   transfer. When same bank or JBL has two A/C to given transfer by the “Posting” and then test the cheque for “Passing” .If the pass of the cheque then will be transfer .This  process just for on line banking.

5.2. OUTWARD CHEQUES:
Outward cheques are those ones drawn on other bank branches which are presented on the concerned branch for collection through remittance house of Bangladesh Bank. These cheques are called outward remittance cheques.

The remittancehouse is an assembly of the locally operating scheduled banks for exchange of Cheques, drafts and other demand instruments drown on each other and received from their respective customers for collection. The house meets at the appointed hour on all working days under the chairmanship of the Central Bank or its agent as the case may be, and works within the regulations framed therefore on the basis of prevailing banking practices. In Bangladesh, remittance-house sites at Bangladesh Bank but where there is no office of the Bangladesh bank, Sonali bank acts as agent of Bangladesh Bank. There are mainly two types of banking systems in Bangladesh, such as;

1. Inter Remittance or Inter-Branch Remittance

2. External Remittance or Inter-Banks remittance.

Remittance of the bank is a heart of the banking system. It creates the inter transaction among the banks and brings easy & prompt services for the customer. In the remittance section of NCC keep cheque, payment order, warrant dividend and so on. The remittance department of NCC is being maintenance by following procedures:

 Endorsement:

An endorsement  is the mode of negotiation a negotiable instrument. According to the section 15 of the negotiation instruments Act, 1881, an endorsement is “when the maker or holder of a negotiable instrument sign the same. Otherwise then as such maker, for the purpose of negotiation, on the back or face thereof or on a slip of paper annexed thereto…he is said to endorse the same and is called the endorse”. But an endorsement of OBC chaques is something different from remittance chaques. In remittance chaques an

Endorsement might be Payees account credited or receive payment but in OBC chaque an endorsement will be payees account credited on realization.

 Crossing:

Crossing of checks, which is now universally adopted, had its origin in London remittancehouse. The name of the bank, whose claim was written across the face of the cheque within two parallel lines.

The private commercial banks that are currently operating in Bangladesh offering different products but there are few basic differences among them in terms of structure and performance. Thus, the competitions among them are increasing day by day. So, based on my experience & knowledge to progress in future, NCC bank must adopt some policy which will help the bank to capture a large number of clients in the market.

  • NCC Bank could give more attention to advertisement and promotion of foreign remittance payment service, which is helpful to get more customers. Bank could use various media for advertisement like TV, News Paper, Internet and Billboard.
  • A philosophy of working for the customers instead of working for boss must be introduced.
  • A website should be more attractive and have more information in it. Also it should be uploaded regularly.
  • Up to date banking software should be use to give batter service to the customers.
  • Manpower should be increase in REMITTANCE section.
