DBBL: A sustainable and responsible business model
Executive Summary In today’s fast paced business environment with high economic inequality, financial institutions operating commercially must not aim to deliver the most competitive products and services only- but also need to provide the under developed portion of the community with basic needs they deserve. Dutch Bangla Bank Limited, since its inception in 1996, has always been a pioneer donor among the local firms of Bangladesh. With around 2.5% of market share in the banking sector, 1600 employees, and record share price in DSE in 2008 and contributing millions in different social causes, DBBL has already established itself as a major bank in Bangladesh. Along with groundbreaking technologies in the banking sector, DBBL has also brought the notion of social responsibility among the big corporations of Bangladesh. Most reasonable banking products and contribution to all creative sectors as a part of business responsibility has played a great role in its growing consumer and investor confidence.
Profit alone is not an aim of DBBL. Its intention is beyond its legal and economic obligations- to do what’s right for the society. As a part of it, DBBL has extended its hands in the field of education, health care, human resource development, conservation of nature, creation of social awareness, rehabilitation of destitute people and other such programs to redress the sufferings of common man. In education sector, DBBL has invested around taka 50.16 million in the year 2009-10, which includes the scholarship in HSC level, fellowship in M.Phil and PhD’s and other expenditures in Ganit
