Banks are financial institutions which accept deposits from people in order to give them away as loans to others. The business is very profitable, taking into consideration the difference between the interest rates on the deposits and on loans. This difference amounts to 10-17%. Banking charges, debt penalties, interest rates on money withdrawals all these means of earning money seem to be minor but they bring much money. Banks require accuracy and precision in terms of money. They punish debtors and reward permanent clients. There is one more service of the banks that is quite an advantage. A plastic card.
