  9. First summary: Commercial banks hold customers' deposits and make loans. Investment banks raise funds for industry. Deregulation in Britain and the US has led to the creation of financial conglomerates similar to the universal banks that have always existed in German-speaking countries. A country's minimum interest rate is usually fixed; banks charge progressively higher rates to less secure borrowers. Many banks also do Eurocurrency business - lending foreign currencies, notably dollars, at lower rates than in the currencies' home countries.

  10. Second summary: Commercial banks receive deposits and make loans. Investment banks arrange security issues and offer other investment services. Yet the traditional distinction between commercial and investment banks has now broken down. Domestic interest rates are fixed by central banks. Many banks also have branches abroad that do Eurocurrency business, making loans in other European currencies.

  11. Third summary: Commercial banks receive deposits, lend money, and provide other services. Merchant and investment banks lend money to industry. British and American banks are now joining together in conglomerates. The interest rates that banks charge depend on the borrowers' creditworthiness. European banks also do a lot of Eurodollar and petrodollar business.

  15. 3 Getting a loan Three different groups of inexperienced young business people in a small town require capital for their businesses. They all apply to the local branch of Megabank. The three groups of would-be borrowers must develop financial arguments that they think will convince the bankers. The group preparing the role of the bankers has to think of questions about the viability of the future businesses: will they be successful, and why? Or why might they not be successful?

  16. The roles are: 1 A Junior manager (and assistants) at the bank, responsible for new local small businesses. To lend or not to lend, that is the question. 2 A group of young people who want to open a small specialist record shop selling CDs of dance music. 3 A group of young people who want to buy an existing take-away pizza business (the lease on the premises, the kitchens, the delivery scooters, and so on). The business is profitable, and well-known in the town, with loyal customers. The new owners can keep the same telephone number, and either keep or change the name. 4 A group of students who already operate a part-time computing consultancy service, advising small businesses on what hardware and software to buy, and how to set up a website. They want to borrow money to buy more computers for themselves, on which to try out elaborate new software programs.
