The Business Principles - Focus on the Banking and Financial Services Industry (Paperback)

A bank is a financial intermediary that accepts deposits and channels those deposits into lending activities. Financial services refer to services provided by the finance industry that deal with the management of money. This book explores the banking and financial services industry as a whole, including banks and their history, the types of channels used by banks, financial services, bank regulation, and the types of banks and intermediary financial services such as credit unions and financial advisers.Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books.
