What are banks? Though all of us are accustomed with this notion in the contemporary age but it is apparently very difficult to say what are they in entirety. The best definition of it can be that they are nothing but financial institutions and happen to be the general place where people in general store their money. Though it is no doubt a modern concept but if we go to the ancient relics we shall ascertain that this concept of banking used to be apart of the general discourses. But with the gradual development of its functions and responsibilities we should also keep it in concern that the original concept of a bank was a place to keep one's money secure, as it could easily be stolen from your house. Then what is the source of income in this industry? In general the chief income of a bank is from the interest that they become able to obtain from the accounts of their clientele and also the services they provide for them. In the present age the relaxation of the stringent governmental policies of decades in respect of the banking industry subsequent to the commencement of the policies of the Globalization in the early 90's has led to the initiation of notable changes in the recent years, in India.

This stiff competition is best perceived in the services offered by the banks. There are lots of services that the banks in general offer. They include safe deposit boxes to store non-monetary items of value, insurance policies, investment and stock options, as well as business or home loans. In respect of the United States of America there is the availability of wide range of advantages, the chief being that one's savings gets insured by the federal government (usually up to $100, 000) the case that the bank itself might get robbed. The clients are also eligible to earn interest in their savings accounts leading to more money than they started with.
