  12. Introductory Remarks The business of banking can be broadly defined as wise management and circulationof all kinds of money in the best interests of every unit of money. Today, a bank is a financialintermediarythat offers a wide range of services to meet their customers’ financial needs. Two fundamental banking services are acceptingdeposits and makingloans. Other services include paymentservices; deposit and lending services; investment, pensions and insurance services ande-banking.

  13. Warm up Discussion • 1 Before you read, work in pairs and discuss the following questions. • What do you know about banking • services? • (2) What role do you think banking • plays in our lives?

  14. The Business of Banking A bank is a financial intermediary* that acts as the go-between for individuals and businesses that have extra money and those that wish to borrow money by offering loans and deposits, and payment services.[1] The term “financial intermediation” means accepting funds from one source (such as savings customers) and using the money to make loans or other investment. By doing so, banks help create money with each set of transactions*. [2] Today, our personal and business affairs could not be transacted without the money medium ----- the banking system. The business of banking can be broadly defined as wise management and circulation* of all kinds of money.[3] Customers turn to banks to borrow money to achieve goals, to prevent losses, to facilitate returns on idle funds, and to manage funds conveniently and effectively. [4] Banks also offer a wide range of additional services.

  15. Although banking covers a large number of different operations, the main functions are not difficult to understand. Two fundamental functions, known to every layman, are accepting deposits* and making loans. [5] • While banks play an important role in financial intermediation, banking’s primary focus is the satisfaction of customers’ financial needs. Modern banks offer a wide range of financial services, including: • Payment services • Deposit and lending services • Investment, pensions and insurance services • E-banking

  16. Banks play a major role in the provision of payment services. For personal customers the main types of payments are made by writing cheques from their current accounts (known as ‘checking accounts’ in the United States) or via debit or credit card payments.[6] In most countries the retail payments systems are owned and run by the main banks. In addition to payment service personal banking includes the offer of a broad range of deposit and lending services.[7] There are two types of deposits, namely, the Checking Account and the Fixed Deposit Account.[8] Current or checking accounts typically pay no (or low) rates of interest and are used mainly for payments. The Fixed Deposit Account, receiving interest, must remain with the bank for a stipulated time, as specified on the deposit receipt issued. [9] Loans and other credit services are important services offered by banks to their customers. There are two major categories of loans: business and consumer.[10] Loans can be secured or unsecured. A secured loan is one in which an asset, such as inventory* or property, is pledged against repayment of the loan. [11]

  17. Banking also includes a great variety of additional products and services that meet customers’ financial needs. A few of these products and services include investment products, pensions and insurance services, and foreign exchange services. Banking has been changing rapidly worldwide. A number of innovative financial products have been developed in recent years. Today the banking system processes more and more electronic transactions to make payments and transfer funds. Although many customers still visit bank offices, the use of electronic banking services continues to grow each year. Electronic banking services include remote terminal transactions (ATMs), telephone transactions, and on-line PC banking.

  18. Today, banking services have become available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, through ATMs, at online banking, and in electronically enabled exchanges where everything from stocks to currency futures contracts can be traded.[12] With the growth of e-business, traditional corporate relationships outside the banking industry are changing rapidly. New business-to-business (B2B) relationships are forcing global banks to consider ways of changing their wholesale banking* operations so as to embrace many of these developments.[13]
