At the end of every report, it needs suggestions and recommendations. According to my judgment the following are the suggestions and recommendations.
•
As UBL is expending with it network 1058 branches, it should be beneficial for the bank to computerized all the branches and earn more than before.
•
The proportion of performance related work should be more than the proportion of deposits in promotions.
•
This strategy should be developing that decentralized means some authority given the branches.
•
UBL should appoint the BDO’s at least hub level with the help of this strategy UBL can increase it deposits.

even they don’t know that how to deal with new technology. •
UBL should be appoint at least one HR officer at hub level for dealing HR related work.
•
As UBL have well in IT sections, I think they can develop their own ATM network as M.net and 1 link.
•
The ATM machine is some times in small cities remain disturb that’s why customer become dissatisfied, if UBL have its own network related ATM than this problem should solve.
