Mangaluru, June 8 : The Staff Performance Review & Award Ceremony for the year 2023-24 of the MCC Bank Ltd. was held on 8th June 2024 at the P.F.X Saldanha Memorial Auditorium, Administrative Office, Mangaluru. The review began with the prayer led by Aldrin Dsouza & team.

Speaking on the occasion Fr John Vas, expressed that recognition of service for an institution is very important as it encourages the staff to work proactively towards the progress of the Bank. He called upon the constituents of the bank to have a better attitude towards work and to be happy to work for the Bank. He said that the target is very important since it helps to enhance the growth of the bank. He recalled the saying, “Aim at the sky, you’ll reach the top branch of the tree”. He congratulated the management and the staff members for the tremendous progress made by the bank during the last decade.

MCC Bank Chairman Sahakara Ratna Shri Anil Lobo presided over the program. In his presidential address he appreciated and congratulated the staff members for their dedicated service, as it has helped to gain trust among the members and customers of the Bank. He congratulated all the Managers and staff members who achieved individual, milestone and share mobilisation for the financial year 2023-24. While congratulating 6 branches who achieved their branch target, he aspired that all the branches would achieve the target for the year 2024-25 and receive the Award. He recalled that only 15% of the staff have achieved the individual target this year and called upon that at least 60% of the staff members should achieve the target for the year 2024-25. He emphasised that collective efforts among the staff members will always yield good results for the branch. Every staff should take the model of Mr John D’silva, who has worked selflessly for the betterment of the society. He urged the staff members to be more disciplined, confident on the products of the bank and to enhance the PR of the Bank. While he stressed upon that the Loans target should be invariably achieved by all the branches, he presented the vision of expanding the Bank to new places.

Advisor, Shri S.H. Visweswaraiah, reviewed the performance of the Bank for the FY 2023-24 and analysed the factors that led to the excellent growth under various parameters. He appreciated the staff members for their tremendous achievement in achieving the business targets under Loans & Advances and also in improving the financials of their respective branches.

Shri John D’silva, eminent personality in the co-operative sector, was the chief guest for the Award Ceremony. He in his address opined that the only people who are largely recognised by the society are Bank employees as they help the people in the society in their day-to-day business and other business-related matters. He appreciated the management for opening a new branch after a long span of 22 years. In the present competitive scenario, it is very difficult to run an urban co-operative Bank.
