Abstract

Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL) has introduced “Rural Development Scheme” in 1995 to cater to the investment needs of the agriculture and rural sector of the country to create opportunity for employment and raising income of the rural people. The authority of RDS should increase the size of investment in order to cope with the change in value of currency because of inflation and other economic reasons. RDS should project their volume of activities for future; then all parties involving in managing RDS should be assigned and held responsible for the job assigned at the beginning of the year. In this research paper examines the performance of RDS should be subject to Balanced Score Card System. RDS with its differentiated features can lock more market share in the country if it comes out with more generous policy like selection of people not on religions basis.
