We rose at dawn, we worked hard, we dreamt and grew. Our economic success has made us proud. But … Mauritius … my country Let’s not turn a blind eye to things anymore. As the world settles into inequality, As we brace ourselves for ecological catastrophe, As hopes and dreams disappear into reality and despair, We must redefine what success means to us. Is the success of a home the price of the property? Or is it in the love it allows a family to share? Does the value of a car live in its size, the make, the model? Or is it in the freedom to choose our own path? Does the wealth of a business lie in its profit margins? Or is it in the well-being it provides? Now is the time to change the equation, to redefine the way we measure success. Success is access to health, education and jobs for all. Success is protecting our environment for future generations. Success is empowering business, big, small, old and new. Success is equality being everyone’s utmost priority. Success is prospering together We are MCB. We believe in Success. Success for this land. Success for all people. Success for tomorrow.

INTRODUCTION:
It is very important to analyze a company before investing in the company. The return obtained from the stock of a company should be assessed and the risk assessed with that return should also be analyzed. The overall performance of the company should also be checked. Generally the stock with high return has high risk attached and the stock with low return has low risk at
tached. Based on the risk tolerance of the investor and his expected return, the investment decisions should be made that is if the investor should invest in certain stock or not. In this report, the stock of The Mauritius Commercial Bank Ltd has been analyzed.
BACKGROUND OF THE COMPANY:
The Mauritius Commercial Bank Ltd is a commercial bank based in Mauritius. It is a subsidiary of MCB Group Ltd. It is the central bank and the banking regulator of the country. It is one of the oldest banks in the world with 181 years in operation. It provides all the banking related services. All the banking related services are provided.

It also looks after its corporate social responsibilities by promoting social welfare and protecting natural resources has also played a key part in the socio-economic development of Mauritius.
BRIEF ANALYSIS OF THE RECENT PERFORMANCE:
The performance of the company, The Mauritius Commercial Bank Ltd can be checked by using the profitability and solvency ratios.
Profitability ratio states the ability of the company to earn profit in comparison to the sales generated by the company (Kebewar, 2012). The profitability ratios which will be used to assess the performance of the company are net profit margin, return on assets and return on equity.
Net Profit Margin = Net Income/Sales
The following table represents the past five year net profit margin of the company:
    Year
    Net income
    Sales
    Net Profit Margin
    2015
    2,480.90
    11,518.60
    0.22
    2016
    6,625.50
    12,073.70
    0.55
    2017
    6,245,100
    11,486,125.00
    0.54
    2018
    6,785,564
    12,885,395.00
    0.53
    2019
    8,813,608
    15,270,209.00
    0.58
The margin was very low in 2015 but has improved exponentially in 2016 and since then the company has been successful maintaining the level. But the company should try to improve its ratio further.
Return on Assets = Net Income/ Total Assets
The following table represents the past five year return on asset of the company:
    Year
    Net income
    Total Assets
    Return on Assets
    2015
    2,480.90
    280,012.80
    0.01
    2016
    6,625.50
    317,704.80
    0.02
    2017
    6,245,100
    316,314,265.00
    0.02
    2018
    6,785,564
    352,451,802.00
    0.02
    2019
    8,813,608
    428,270,712.00
    0.02
The level of return on assets has been maintained by the company. But a ratio of 0.2 is very low. At least 0.5 is considered to be a good return on assets ratio.
Return on Equity = Net Income/ Total Equity
The following table represents the past five year return on equity of the company:
    Year
    Net income
    Total equity
    Return on Equity
    2015
    2,480.90
    30,288,880.00
    0.00
    2016
    6,625.50
    32,955,423.00
    0.00
    2017
    6,245,100
    39,824,599.00
    0.16
    2018
    6,785,564
    43,983,947.00
    0.15
    2019
    8,813,608
    47,919,593.00
    0.18
15-20% return on equity can be considered to be a good return on equity. Although initially there was no return on the equity yet the company improved its position and currently the ratio is satisfactory.
