TYPES OF BANK
1. Commercial or retail banks are businesses that trade in money.
They receive and hold deposits, pay money according to customers’
instructions, lend money, offer investment advice, exchange foreign
currencies, and so on. They make a profit from the difference (known
as a spread or a margin) between the interest rates they pay to lenders
or depositors and those they charge to borrowers. Banks also create
credit, because the money they lend, from their deposits, is generally
spent (either on goods or services, or to settle debts), and in this way
transferred to another bank account – often by way of a bank transfer
or a cheque (check) rather than the use of notes or coins – from where
it can be lent to another borrower, and so on. When lending money,
bankers have to find a balance between yield and risk, and between li-
quidity and different maturities.
2. Merchant banks; in Britain raise funds for industry on the vari-
ous financial markets, finance international trade, issue and underwrite
securities, deal with takeovers and mergers, and issue government
bonds. They also generally, offer stockbroking and portfolio manage-
ment services to rich corporate and individual clients. Investment
banks in the USA are similar, but they can only act as intermediaries
offering advisory services, and do not offer loans themselves. Invest-
ment banks make their profits from the fees and commissions they
charge for their services.

3. In the USA, the Glass-Steagall Act of 1934 enforced a strict
separation between commercial banks and investment banks or stock-
broking firms. Yet the distinction between commercial and investment
banking has become less clear in recent years. Deregulation in the
USA and Britain is leading to the creation of ‘financial supermar-
kets’: conglomerates combining the services previously offered by
banks, stockbrokers, insurance companies, and so on. In some Euro-
pean countries (notably Germany, Austria and Switzerland) there have
always been universal banks combining deposit and loan banking with
share and bond dealing and investment services.

Commercial banks receive, deposits, tend money, and provide
other services. Merchant and investment banks lend money to indus-
try. British and American banks are now joining together in. conglom-
erates. The interest rates that banks charge depend on the borrowers’
credit-worthiness European banks …..
