Introduction to the
Banking Industry
What is Banking?
• Bankers identify the financial needs of each segment of
society — business, government, and consumers — and then
develop banking services to meet those needs.
• Some of the services include checking and savings accounts,
certificates of deposit, and individual retirement accounts.
• Banks also provide their customers with loans to start or
expand a business, or purchase a home or car.
• Banks use technology to offer the convenience (ATMs) and
are continually introducing new services like mobile deposits
and supermarket branches to meet the changing needs of
their customers.
