What to Focus On

  • A bank accepts deposits and gives loans.
  • Banking means accepting deposits for lending or investment.
  • Banks help in safe keeping, payments, and loans.
  • Accepting deposits and giving loans are the main functions of a bank.
  • Banks open accounts and give account numbers to depositors.
  • Cheque books help in withdrawing money and making payments.
  • Credit means a claim to receive payment later.
  • A borrower gets value now and repays in future.
  • The bank becomes the lender when it gives a loan.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

RBI is just another commercial bank that also gives loans and accepts deposits like the others.

The Ministry of Finance issues all currency notes and coins in India.

Credit creation means the bank gives out only the cash that was originally deposited, so the total deposit cannot become larger than the first deposit.
