Unit 5. Banks and banks services.
Text 1. Read and translate.
Banks are among the most important financial institutions in the economy that produce and sell financial services. Banks that offer the widest range of financial services. Banking covers so many services that it is difficult to define it. Most banks offer a combination of wholesale and retail banking, i.e. they provide large-scale services to companies, government agencies and other banks and small-scale services to the general public. Banking, however, have three essential functions. They are:
Deposit function — receiving customers' deposits and offering interest-bearing deposits.
Payments function — making payments on behalf of customers for their purchases of goods and services.
Credit function — Tending and investing money.
There are some traditional services that banks offer.
Carrying out currency exchange. History shows that one of the first services offered by banks was currency exchange — a bank stood ready to trade one form of currency for another in return for a service fee.
Safekeeping of valuables. During the Middle Ages, banks began the practice of holding gold, securities, and other valuables owned by their customers in secure vaults. Customers still leave articles of value, locked boxes, wills, and many other things in bank strong rooms for safety.
Trust services. For many years banks have offered to manage the financial affairs and property of individuals and business firms in return for a fee. This property management function is known as trust services. Most banks offer both personal trust services to individuals and families and commercial trust services to corporations and other businesses.
Banking is not static business today.
Financial Advising — customers have long asked for financial advice, particularly, when it comes to the use of credit and the saving and investing of funds.
Many banks today offer a wide range of financial advisory services, from helping to prepare tax returns and financial planning to consulting for business managers and checking on the credit standing of firms and individuals who deal with one of the bank's business customers.
Cash Management — over the years banks have found that some of the services they provide for themselves are also valuable for their customers. One of the most prominent examples is cash management services, in which a bank agrees to handle cash collections and for a business firm and to invest any temporary cash surpluses in short-term interest-bearing securities and loans until the cash is needed. While banks tend to specialize mainly in business cash management services, there is a growing trend today towards offering similar services for consumers.
Selling Insurance Policies — most banks either offer selected insurance policies to their customers or have plans to offer insurance services in the near future. They hope to be able to offer regular life insurance policies and property-casualty policies, such as auto or home owners' insurance.
Offering Security Brokerage Services — in today's financial marketplace many banks are doing their best to become true "financial department stores". This is one of the main reasons banks began to market security brokerage services in the 1980s, offering their customers the opportunity to buy stocks, bonds, and other securities without security dealers or brokers.
It should be clear from the list of services described that the changes affecting the banking business today are so important that many industry analysts refer to current trends as "a banking revolution".
