“Money Laundering means – i) Properties acquired or earned directly or indirectly through illegal means; ii) Illegal transfer, conversion, concealment of location or assistance in the above act of the properties acquired or earned directly or indirectly through legal or illegal In lay terms Money Laundering is most often described as the “turning of dirty or black money into clean or white money”. If undertaken successfully, money laundering allows criminals to legitimize “dirty” money by mingling it with “clean” money, ultimately providing a legitimate cover for the source of their income. Generally, the act of conversion and concealment is considered crucial to the laundering process.
Why Money Laundering is done?

First, money represents the lifeblood of the organization that engages in criminal conduct for financial gain because it covers operating expenses, replenishes inventories, purchases the services of corrupt officials to escape detection and further the interests of the illegal enterprise, and pays for an extravagant lifestyle. To spend money in these ways, criminals must make the money they derived illegally appear legitimate. second, a trial of money from an offense to criminal can become incriminating evidence criminals must obscure or hide the source of wealth
Third, the proceeds from crime often become the target of investigation and seizure. To shield ill-gotten gains from suspicion and protect them from seizure, criminals must conceal their existence or, alternatively, make them look legitimate.

FINDINGS RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION
6.1 Major Findings
EXIM Bank is a third generation bank in Bangladesh. So it provides that it is going very well. But according to my observation I found some major Findings of bank which are given below-
Customer satisfaction level of Exim Bank is satisfactory. EXIM Bank Ltd. emphasis on personal relationship with client and they maintain it properly.
Exim Bank provides preferential service to all types of customer.
Bank done all the activities under sariah rules and regulations.
Bank focus on anti money laundering issues strictly.
From my observation nomineeses profile not fill-up properly in some cases as a result irregularities remain in account opening section.
Photograph of account holders and nominee not obtained in few cases for these reason account opening form remain pending.
The cost of deposit is high. high cost deposit should be discouraged on long term basis. Due to high cost deposit the branch cannot gain profit as they expected.
Official space of bank is not large and interior decoration is not good.
Dependence on large corporate deposit.
Lack of opening Al-Wadiah account and Mudaraba short Term account.
There is no ATM booth in Chittagong zone.
Lack of promotional activity is another problem that is responsible for the decline of the customer’s expectation of EXIM.
Lack of proper customer network infrastructure in bank.
6.2 RECOMMENDATIONS
I have to make some recommendations based on the findings that I have got from my research. The recommendation will help the bank to take necessary steps in order to increase the satisfaction level of customers in general banking sector of EXIM bank. The following are some recommendations for the Exim Bank. nomineeses profile have to fill-up properly.as a result lot of irregularities remove in account opening section.
Photograph of account holders and nominees collect from account holders when account holder want to open an account.Then account opening form formalities complete in right time .
Bank try to reduce The cost of deposit . because high cost deposit discouraged on long term basis.if bank reduce the deposit cost customer encouraged on long term.
Bank should increase their office space and take more care in interior decoration.
Bank depend on retail deposit.Retail deposit is better than corporate deposit bacause corporate deposit withdraw large amount at any time.then bank face lequidity crises.
Bank have to increase Al-Wadiah account and Mudaraba short Term account.
Exim bank should make better online service. It is need to develop better network for online banking.so Exim bank set up ATM booth in Chittagong zone.
Bank should make their advertisement on newspaper & T.V. and by advertising every facility of the bank can offer at the door of the customer. Bank should introduce ‘Marketing Department’for promotion.
To ensure better customer service network infrastructure of the bank should be developed.
6.3 CONCLUSION
During my three months internship program at Exim Bank CDA Avenue Branch, Chittagong, almost all the desks have been observed more or less. This internship program, in fact, has been arranged for gaining knowledge of practical banking and to compare this practical knowledge with theoretical knowledge.

Exim Bank also needs the support of authorities as their movements have yet develop certain essential infrastructure toq function, such as Proper interest free System.
However Exim bank has a good set of institutional owners, which gives it a better board of directors and Shariah Council For Maintain shariah Principles than many other Islamic banks.Exim Bank is the Bank which has been successful in developing a professional job environment where each officer has substantial level of authority and responsibility.
