INTRODUCTION

:General Overview of the Problem 1.1

A bank is a commercial or state institution that provides financial
services,including issuing money in form of coins, banknotes or debit
cards,receiving deposits of money, lending money and processing
transactions. Acommercial bank accepts deposits from customers and in
turn makes loansbased on those deposits. Some banks (called Banks of
issue) issue banknotesas legal tender. Many banks offer ancillary financial
services to makeadditional profit; for example: selling insurance products,
investmentproducts or stock broking.Currently in most jurisdictions
commercial banks are regulated andrequire permission to operate.
Operational authority is granted by bank regulatory authorities and
provides right to conduct the most fundamentalbanking services such as
accepting deposits and making loans. Acommercial bank is usually defined
as an institution that provides selectedbanking services without meeting
the legal definition of bank.Banks have a long history, and have influenced
economy and politicsfor centuries. In history, the primary purpose of a
bank was to provideliquidity to trading companies. Banks advanced funds
to allow business topurchase inventory, and collected those funds back
with interest when thegoods are sold. For centuries, the banking industry
only dealt with businessnot customers. Commercial lending today is a very
intense activity, withbanks carefully analyzing the financial condition of its
business clients todetermine the level of risk in each loan transaction.
Banking services haveexpanded to include services directed at individuals
.and risks in these muchsmaller transactions are pooled
